"The MCAT is hard, and the MCAT is important!" - Princeton Review
Yeah, we know.
As a little girl, I never knew what fear was. Yes, there were moments when I was scared, but fear wasn't something I experienced. It was because growing up, my father always instilled "No Fear" in me. Mind you, I've been in situations that should've put fear in anybody, but it was exciting or fun for me because I knew my father was with me.
As I grew up, even when my father wasn't with me presently, I still walked with this sense of fearlessness and ambition--especially with my dreams. My one forever dream of becoming a physician, was a part of my identity, and I knew I could do all things and anything, so why should I fear?
Well, life has a funny way of humbling you, and the MCAT was that for me!
With this being my fourth attempt, I found myself having panic attacks, feeling restless, overwhelmed, and defeated on a daily with the thought of retaking this exam. I wasn't ready to call it quits, but I was close enough to find a different way to medicine.
I would have called it quits if it weren't for my family, best friend, prophetess, and prophets speaking into my life. Having a solid community that cares, and sees my potential and purpose when I couldn't see myself is why I have a heart for the people--community. Many of you--The Hottiee's--- would send words of encouragement, ask for advice, and even remind me of who God says I am, and for that, I am so grateful! 🥹🩵
If you don't have that same support, know I'm here and will only be a message away! If you're applying, studying, or just in need of community, I will be hosting live community sessions on YouTube! We can come together and work on problems both academically and personally in hopes of being heard, seen, and recognized. Fear is not welcome in my life and neither is yours, so we must lean on each other for support.
I'm glad to have you all with me on this journey and remember: It's our time to overcome fear and THE MCAT!
Remember Proverbs 17:17, A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
