I am nearing the end of college and am having trouble balancing and choosing whats next. I keep putting it off which freaks me out more. What advice do you have on figuring out new things and dealing with change?

Hi there, I went through something similar after college. It is difficult and change is scary but the best advice I have is to be kind to yourself. Don’t put pressure on yourself to be anything that others expect you to be. The only person you need to satisfy is yourself. You’re going into the next part of adulthood and it’s important to listen to your inner voice even when outside forces are pushing. You know what’s best for you. Don’t forget that.

Best advice I have, accept that you are going to feel lost, uncomfortable and anxious as you go through this period. It's normal facing the end of a season of your life. Hold to the things that make you happy and keep reminding yourself that this is just a transitional season and like all seasons, it will end. You don't have to have everything figured out right away and it's okay to take your time to find your path. Trust that everything will work out for the best.
