1.  My first environmental job!!
2.  Friends who support, listen and celebrate your victories as you go along
3.  Not being afraid to keep going after what I want
4.  Holding onto faith that everything will work out for the best
5.  Giving it the time that it needs
6.  Letting it breathe and ebb and flow
7.  Sharing, finally, what you've been building towards and hopefully encouraging others to go for what they want too!
