Pink, thank you for such an inspiring post.

I will have my piece of paper soon, and like you, I look to make the core changes and move forward truly. I love how you mentioned that GAL is sometimes but an illusion.

Maybe there will be humility and growth for both of you up ahead still. Wishing the best for you, that trust in the process will bring you happily to your new life.
