Q & A

What is one barrier you have overcome? How did you do it and what did you learn?

One barrier I have overcome is learning to connect with new people, especially through sports. Meeting others who can teach me new skills has shown me the value of pushing forward, even when things get tough. I’ve learned that if I find myself feeling down, it’s important to get back up, keep trying, and never give up. This experience has taught me resilience and the importance of perseverance.
