Hi 30 year old self.

What's life like this side of my twenties?
Did I end up with le chat?
Am I the CEO of Inspire?
Have I made a difference to people's lives?
When I thought I'd beaten the black tiger cubs, did I? Or did it get bad again?
Did I ever resolve those attachment issues?
Do I have kids?
