My biggest regret is waiting so long to believe in myself. I had ideas, stories, and a deep desire to make an impact for years—but I let self-doubt and perfectionism hold me back. I thought I needed to be more qualified, more ready, more “something” before I could really show up. Looking back, I realize I already had everything I needed—I just had to trust myself enough to begin. If I could go back, I’d start sooner and be less afraid to take up space.
