***DISCLAIMER: I have nothing against people who choose to share their personal stories. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with overcoming tragic situations and wanting to share that with the world. I am always rooting for people, no matter what they've gone through, and I will always be supportive of that.*** In this episode of Tender Tidbits w/Tamyia, I talk about the downsides of highlighting sob stories and looking down on people who don't have one. I also share behind-the-scenes details of the application and interview process for my distinguished graduate experience and reflect on the important life lessons it taught me.
