Meet Molly and learn about her Self-Discovery journey towards independent living. 

The covid pandemic threw us many curve balls. However, how many of us feel that curve balls have been thrown at us for much longer than that?   

• who I am, 
• what I want, 
• where I am now, 
• what is my future, 
• and how and what can I do to change my life to be more fulfilling for me?

Molly is bright, bubbly, and outgoing. When setting goals for herself, Molly asked many questions about what she can do to change and make her life more fulfilling by reaching her goal of one day living by herself. 

However, she lacks confidence and is needed guidance, and sees her disability as a barrier.  If we know who we are, we can look at the things we want that will make our lives more fulfilling.
