QUOTES FROM JULIA

• “I did what every good millennial would do and I quit my job and I went traveling for half a year just to do some soul searching and I guess also with the intention to figure out what I wanted to do with my life.”
• “I just found that it's not just me who feels that way. It's a lot of people who never consciously thought about those questions and answered them for themselves. So, I just felt like self-discovery was really a missing part.”
• “Self-discovery is never going to tell you, this is going to happen in the future, this is how your life is going to turn out, this is what you're going to have to deal with. We’re not looking into the future and making a prediction of your future because also we have free will.”
