Growing up was never simple. Standing out meant carrying challenges every day, at school and at home. At first it left me wishing I was someone else. Over time, that feeling changed. The same things that set me apart became the reason I learned pride. The struggle stayed, but it gave me the drive to keep moving without fear. Looking back, those years aren’t scars. They’re proof I was built to last, shaped by lessons I didn’t see at the time but still carry now. #property
