Summary
 Jill, a consultant at Bain, reflects on how unexpected turns—from a missed summer program to COVID changing her college plans—helped her find a path she hadn't imagined. She shares advice for young adults: don't let setbacks define your character, stay open to changing direction, make room to slow down, get enough sleep, and keep your passion separate from the organization around it.
