## Resource

Life moves at you fast! Meet Melissa, one of my YouTube members, who volunteered to do a 1-hour coaching session. After years of dedicating herself to biomedical engineering and STEM, Melissa is at a crossroads: does she continue on this path, even though it is uncertain and not living up to its promise of stability -- or does she pursue something in the arts that makes her feel more alive? Melissa already has a history in the arts: as a dancer, she's spent years learning how to move her body and be connected to her senses, which has informed her work as an actor and model. Should she pivot into a career in fashion, and if so, what can she do to make sure she's actually creative? And why does it feel so hard to pivot after we've spent so long paying our dues?
