Be Your Best in Your 20s

Embrace your fears
"My mother once sent me a quote: 'Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.' I use that idea to remind myself that in the darkest of times, we're on the verge of beauty and greatness."

Stay on the journey
"To gain the confidence to aim for the top, I've learned to accept that where I am at any moment is where I'm supposed to be. So if I don't have a Grammy-winning album this time, it doesn't mean I've failed, just that I have to keep going."

Rissi Palmer, 26, Country Music Artist

Step outside yourself
