This isn’t just the story of earning a degree, t’s the story of showing up for yourself even when life tries to knock you off course. In this episode of CTRL+ALT+REE, I’m discussing my journey to becoming Dr. Ree. The detours, the delays, and the determination it took to get here. From pausing my program after a Crohn’s diagnosis to reapplying in 2023 while raising my son and working full-time, every step was a lesson in grace, patience, and courage. It’s not a perfect story; it’s a real one. My hope is that it reminds you that your dreams don’t expire, even if the timeline changes. You don’t have to be perfect, just stay consistent and patient.
