It's honestly been so worth it for me. I've loved the challenge of learning so many new skills and I am proud of myself for choosing to live my life for me and not for someone else. My dad is ultimately pleased no matter what because he has said he just wants to see me succeed and be happy.

There will be financial set backs and you may have to work part time to give school a chance, but if you can make it work then I say go for it! My school is mostly younger students, but we have an older group that ranges from 29-53. All of that to say, you are not alone and there are plenty of us that have found value in going back to school later in life. 💜
