Key messages from this interview:
Success does not always mean achieving something extraordinary. For many newcomers, success means building stability, gaining confidence, finding meaningful relationships, and creating a life where they feel safe and valued.
Everyone’s path is different, and progress should be measured against your own goals, not those of others.
