My dominant takeaway from this experience was that I was never given a chance.
I see.
It feels like at a certain point they just decided I wasn't a good investment and cut their losses and didn't tell me.
So I feel like all these people who were around me, who were saying they were supporting me, were in fact biding their time until I would make the decision for them.
Welcome to how to.
I'm Carvel Wallace.
Some of you may know that long before I started writing, long before I started podcasting, I worked in nonprofit for 15 years.
In fact, I dealt with clients in underserved communities, kids in detention facilities, kids in foster care.
