Why I Gave Up My Dream Job — And Found a Better Life

I used to believe that landing my dream job was the end goal Feeling of reflection and questioning a once-bright dream After years of grinding through university, surviving unpaid internships, and tirelessly networking, I finally landed the position I thought would define my success — a prestigious marketing role at a top agency in New York City. To the outside world, I had made it. My LinkedIn glowed. My parents beamed with pride. My friends envied my so-called "perfect life."
