It's a natural progression in any profession for the student to become the teacher, the mentee to become the mentor. 

It's not that much different from parenting.

 We learn from our ancestors how to make the perfect soup, how to soothe an aching head or heart. We measure milestones in percentiles and first steps to try and gain insight into the person they'll grow into. 

As if knowing a bunch of numbers on charts is any true measure of what we might make of ourselves

. No one said it was easy, becoming the person you're meant to be

 It takes bravery to step into the power you found and earned and deserve. 

The trick is, to take the people who were there for you, with you, to remind you you're not alone.

 You have an entire legacy behind you as you create your own.
