COMING OF AGE: WHEN POWER MEETS PURPOSE
I remember being a kid in Belize counting down the years, the months, the days until I turned 18. In my mind, 18 was the finish line and the starting block all in one. It was when you became legal, when you could sign your own papers, get a bank loan, start a business, travel freely, work where you want, live where you want. For me, 18 was the gateway to agency, the power to shape life on your own terms.
