What’s the best advice you never got? What is one thing you wish someone had shared with you long before you had to figure it out on your own?

One piece of advice I wish I had received earlier is the importance of prioritizing mental health just as much as physical health. Growing up, there was often a focus on academic success, career goals, and external achievements, but I didn’t fully grasp the significance of taking care of my emotional well-being until I faced burnout and anxiety. It would have been incredibly helpful to learn earlier that it’s okay to take a step back, seek help, and prioritize self-care, rather than pushing through and risking my overall well-being. Remembering that mental health is a crucial component of a fulfilling life could have made a significant difference in my journey.
