At the age of 25, there are many new feelings which I am still figuring out, although some stand out more than others. One feeling which stuck with me the most is that falling sensation which makes you feel lost.

There are countless reasons you may feel lost. For me, it all began with work. I remember feeling it for the first time when I graduated from University. It was such a transitional time in my life and the truth is that I was completely unprepared for it.

For over 16 years of my life, I had a routine. School was my nucleus and everything else, all other activities centred around it. University was no different so it was no surprise when I graduated that I couldn’t help but feel lost, as though I lost my centre of gravity. Albeit, my nucleus.

I accepted a job straight out of University in primary school and it was good a start to the next few years of my life. I did that for a year and then moved my way into marketing for the next two years.

Three years later I found myself burnt out, at a job that had taught me so much but also stunted my growth in a position that I was passionate about. But also, no longer had the drive for.

What I decided to do next really defined my twenties. I got lost.

I quit my job.

I made the decision to give up my steady paycheck and routine for the complete opposite.

From this Pivotal Moment in my life, I learnt one thing.
