I Didn’t Thrive. I Endured.

from Unmuted by Nola Hosted by Nola Cartmill

People always ask me what Harvard Law was like. And I usually offer some polished version — say it was great, just not really my scene. That I’m not an East Coast person. But that’s not the whole truth. And until now, I’ve never really told it. In this episode, I open up about what it was actually like to survive one of the most elite institutions in the world — while grieving, unraveling, and trying to hold onto my sense of self. I didn’t thrive. I endured. There were people who looked like me. But no one like me. And I was too afraid to admit how much I was struggling — until now. If you’ve ever felt like your achievement came at the cost of your emotional survival — this one’s for you. 🎵 Tuesday Vibes by Snoozy Beats https://soundcloud.com/snoozybeats Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0 Free Download / Stream: https://www.audiolibrary.com.co/snoozybeats/tuesday-vibes Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/Gd5msntuOng
