Comment on LiA Week 3 & 4!!

Great update Elena, I hope the rest of your LiA goes well.  "I sometimes struggle to have the confidence in myself that I know what I'm doing and have the ability to control a situation, which I think comes with feeling 'too young'." I'm a fair few years older than you and still feel like this sometimes, especially with teenagers! I don't think it's age that brings the confidence you're describing; it's experience. And you only gain that experience by being brave enough to take that first step, which is you have, so congrats! Look forward to hearing how the rest of your time went!
