I sometimes think that I left it too late to find my bliss. The job I am currently in fulfils me in a way no other job has. It has plenty of issues and is often hard work but I wouldn’t want to be doing anything else. When I think of all the jobs I did before this, I wonder why it took so long to come along; and then I realise …

As creatives we bring ourselves to the job and we are made up of each and every one of our experiences. We bring everything within us to our work and I am certainly the sum of my experiences. So thank you, to the people who welcomed me, who didn’t judge me and didn’t laugh at me, thank you. I have found my tribe.
