## Caption

Growing up, I had no idea what I wanted to be. I just told myself I’d figure it out as I tried new things.

Over time, as I took on different volunteering roles, I noticed a pattern: almost all of them involved working with kids. There’s just something so special about them. Being around kids and playing with them brings out a genuine smile in me that nothing else can. 🩺✨

👇🏻When did you realise what you were meant to do?
