What makes this degree challenging for me is it adds pressure to an already crowded schedule.

I was going to feel sorry for myself but then I met this plucky positive “let’s charge Hell with a slingshot” mentor named Dr. Taylor. It kind of sucked the life out of my pity party.

Especially when I heard she homeschooled seven kids while earning her Doctorate from Stanford.
