I arrived in New York City like I’m sure many have before me.

A little optimistic, a little scared, and a lot overwhelmed.

But, although this was my biggest rodeo, it was not my first. This was the fourth new city that I have moved to in the last 15 years.

Despite being an introvert, I have become used to meeting new people, making new friends, and building a support network.

But this was New York City. Perhaps it would be harder to do so here?
