My first year studying abroad at a Scottish university tested me in ways I didn't expect and changed me in the best ways, too.

This episode is the 5 quotes that got me through it all: anxiety spirals, unexpected drama, and the pressure to have a perfect Instagram life in the most aesthetic town in Scotland.

One came from my mom. One came from Pinterest. The others, I couldn't tell you. All of them, I still say to myself.

Come chat with me.

Now that first year is officially over and hindsight is 20/20, I wanted to sit down and share some thoughts on how university has shaped my faith over the past nine months. My faith has been such a huge part of my experience at St Andrews, and so many of the lessons I've learned this year have been shaped by it. This is definitely one of the more personal episodes I've recorded, and a conversation I've been wanting to have for a while. I hope you all enjoy.
