By her sophomore year in high school, Diana Chao had already decided that she needed to take a gap year after graduating in order to focus on her mental health. After getting into Princeton University, she deferred for a year and took time off to work at NASA & Adobe while building her non-profit, Letters to Strangers and managing her family business. After overworking herself for several 100-hour weeks, Diana realized that her chaotic schedule was only worsening her mental and physical health and decided to travel to Rome in order to take some time off and slow down. Through her experiences traveling, she was able to gain a new perspective on life and return to the US with a more mindful approach to life.
