I have a rather unique background; I majored in English Literature and Sociology, worked as a reporter, and then decided to enroll in an Oriental Medicine college. Back in high school, my teachers advised against choosing humanities over the "sure-fire" path of science and medical school, but I didn't want to follow a set, straight line—I wanted to walk at my own pace and enjoy the scenery.

After graduating from university, I landed a job I had wanted, but the journey included career confusion, quitting, and embarking on a new challenge. At the time, I worried about whether it was too late in my early 20s, and I even had to face opposition from my parents.

However, I would like to tell my past self now, "It's okay, you're not late at all. Do everything you want to do!" All those variables in life were never in vain.

When I meet patients at the clinic, I go beyond simple disease treatment; I provide counseling that nurtures their hearts. If I hadn't experienced those times of confusion, failure, and challenge, would I have been able to approach them as sincerely as I do now?

"It is not the strong who last the longest, but those who last who are the strongest."
