“Live life with no regrets.”

Mistakes get made, but there is always a learning opportunity or silver lining to take away. My mom was a huge advocate for moving forward. She espoused living in the moment and living without looking back regretfully. This mantra is deeply ingrained in me, so much so that when interviewers, teachers, or even friends ask about my greatest failures, I sincerely struggle to think of examples. They are failures to me, they are experiences from which I learned and grew.
