“Who am I when I’m not busy with school?”

Without assignments, deadlines, studying, and constant productivity, summer can create space for a different kind of question: who are you outside of achievement?

Sometimes growth looks like trying new things, reconnecting with old parts of yourself, noticing what energizes you, or simply giving yourself permission to exist without constantly performing. Reflection can be a powerful way to reconnect with yourself beyond the roles and responsibilities of student life.
