Hi @cteeniee
Thank you for this post!! It really made me reflect on how my childhood dreams led me to this point in my life.
As a child I also wanted to get into something more creative - maybe fashion or music? But as I grew up my interest kinda shifted, I am really drawn to psychology - probably because of the influence of my dad. He taught the subject and I used to always sit in his office and read his psych textbooks.
I went into my undergrad degree hoping to get into forensic psych (probably because I was listening to so many true crime podcasts back then😅), but towards the end of my degree my focus shifted a little again. I'm taking a break from uni at the moment, but I'm hoping to pursue something in behavioural neuroscience and the addiction field when I go back to do postgrad. But who knows, something else might catch my eye before then. Something I've learnt along the way is to always be open minded to new opportunities and interests 🙂
