    Jul 18 2023

    What happens after the selection board is a mix of magic and misery. The magic of being selected, the misery of awaiting additional information and class dates and the endless thoughts that cross your mind in the blank space.

    Make sure you listen all the way through and let me know if you have anything I can assist you with in this transition.
