I feel like there’s a clear “before” and “after” in how I’ve recently begun identifying as a writer. Although I’m still relatively new to writing, I already notice myself seeing the world differently than I did before. I'm curious and excited to see how my "paradigms" continue to evolve as I deepen both my writing skills and my identity as a writer.

This is beautiful. I definitely have the before and after coming out although it was a very long process. It's crazy how different I feel as a person.

The second one is probably my before and after I got a job at Google. It's just a job but it made so many things possible for me like moving to Amsterdam, go on trips all around the world, working with all sorts of huge companies, just in general creating this sense of life stability that I have a strong CV and a good financial situation thanks to it.

It feels great when you look back in retrospect, and you think to yourself…look how far I’ve come??

100%! That's why I love reading your posts. It's one of the ways that forces me to pause and just look how far I've come. So thank you for that :)
