I recently watched Raza's video, and I found it incredibly inspiring and liberating. The bravery he displayed in creating this special empowers creators like me immensely. It's disheartening to realize how powerful the internal voices can be, the ones that tell us we need to "achieve something" or "become someone" before pursuing our true desires. I struggled with these thoughts for a long time, questioning who would be interested in my articles and what I had to offer.

Interestingly, overcoming a severe illness (like yourself) helped me rise above these fears. After that experience, I couldn't fathom why I would want to squander my life by putting on a facade, going after a career that seemed meaningless, and most importantly, hiding my true self.
