" Mental health is not a destination, but a process. It's about how you drive, not where you're going. The focus is on the process—how we handle stress, connect with others, and take care of ourselves—rather than an end goal. This perspective will encourage me to be mindful of mental health continuously and to view it as a dynamic aspect of our overall well-being. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: InspireStride
"InspireStride" is a group project led by four students with similar academic backgrounds, all committed to helping underprivileged students overcome barriers to education. We aim to provide free mentoring, guidance, and study materials to those in need.
Each of us draws from personal experiences of overcoming challenges to pursue higher education, using these stories to motivate and inspire students. Through regular mentorship sessions, practical study tips, and sharing educational resources, we create a strong support system. We also plan to collaborate with organizations to ensure access to these resources is free and effective.
As a team, we aim to show students that success is possible with proper guidance and effort. "InspireStride" is about making education fair and accessible for all, empowering students to chase their dreams and achieve great things.
