One moment that really shaped how I see the world was losing my brother unexpectedly earlier this year. It hit me harder than I can explain—he wasn’t just my brother, he was a part of my daily life, my motivation, and my support system. When someone that close to you is gone in an instant, it forces you to see life completely differently. Read more>>
