“I grew up in a working class town where people’s ambitions extended only as far as the end of the street or how far they can stretch their next paycheck and for a point in my life i was in that cycle, living hand to mouth, dreaming of more, not really seeing a way forward. I moved out when i was 17 and i was working a job as a glorified cleaner scrubbing toilets and cleaning up after others driving my scooter 15 miles every day in all weathers 6 days a week. I wasn’t happy and it showed, if it wasn’t for a boss i had at the time who pulled me aside one shift and said ‘Look your meant for more than this’ i would probably still be in that cycle like most of those i grew up with still are.
Just because something is difficult doesn’t mean it’s impossible. I’m eternally grateful he packed me off to a careers advisor that day on my lunch break and kicked my arse into gear to change my life. He made me go to night school adjusting my shifts so i could get there on time and that eventually lead to uni, the first of my family to do that”
