Been loving the videos man. I noticed you're passionate about what you do and genuinely positive and excited, which is really cool. You're all good man, totally normal problems but very really challenges to overcome. I'm 28 and been through similar things. I got a physics degree but with some trial and error I ended up being an energy auditor after school, have been for 3 years. Basically testing houses for energy efficiency and recommending improvements like insulation or air sealing. It's one of the fastest growing industries right now and has a lot of government funding, so it might be worth looking into. You just gotta go into attics and crawl spaces lol, but the pay is pretty good and it's usually flexible driving to houses and working from home. The job market is such a different playing field than school, so I hope your creativity helps you find something that works for you. There's jobs out there that we don't even know the names of. My friend is in a similar position with a cyber security degree and it's tough. Happy you have skating and your relationships to fuel your patience, I'm sure it will work out with time.

I’m a 48 yr old Dad who just started skating again after 30 yrs. I coach my son and I coach a HS Lacrosse team. My time on my board is few and far between but it is a stress reliever for sure. If I can give a young guy like you any advice it is to keep grinding, no pun intended. Getting on your board every day will help relieve stress but you have to face the personal challenges head on. There are a ton of jobs in the world. I also went to college and thought I’d be a psychologist. Now, I’m an electrician and a coach in South Carolina. There is a plan, you don’t know it yet but keep banging on doors and one will open. Do not sit back and wait. Go get what you want the same way you push with skateboarding and you will never be wanting.

Hi Max. I had similar feelings when I was 25 (2020😅) of course everyones situation is different but if I could give any advice, all I can say is to just take it day by day, do what you want and recognize that there are many things on this big blue world 🌎that are out of your control. So don’t let it control you. Hope to skate with you one day
