It's Never Too Late to Pursue Your Dreams

In life, 'success' is most often linked to certain milestones achieved at a certain age. as we progress through the decades. For me, success is a very personal concept and I truly believe that it's never too late to chase after what you really want in life. I'm 40 years old and pursuing a lifelong dream of finally becoming a doctor.

My dream is to share all my knowledge, personal experience, and training to help others on their own healing journeys as a specialist psychiatrist. 

There are currently less than 2 psychiatrists for every 100 000 people in South Africa, according to the WHO.

I hope to add myself as one more, with your help.
