I was in debt but got help to plan some strategies like setting a fixed amount for daily expenses. I got my debt under control again.

When money was tight I used a budget - it really helped. There's free resources online so everybody can try it. My friends also did one with me which helped motivate us.

I got a mentor which really helped guide me in my career. She helped with tough decisions, chellenged me, and made me a better employee and person

There isn't just one type of job or study area - there's so much choice. I tried a few things before I settled on the right thing for me.

My first job wasn't my dream job. But it was a springboard to where I want to be.

I took non-paid volunteer roles after school to get skills for when I graduate. It helped me learn what I liked and didn't like. And I built a good work ethic.

I understand now that people process their emotions differently. When my friends fight I get they might not be ready to talk for a while.

I value my friends a lot but keeping the right people around me is important and it's ok to say no to some people.

When I feel stress it usually makes me eat unhealthy. Just making an effor to eat nutritious meals or going for a walk helps.

I didn't understand how much food could affect my moods. When I started eating better I felt better too.
