I've secured the apprenticeship.PREPARATION PROCESS
My preparation process was rather straight forward. The person that I'm doing it with had talked with me previously about having an apprenticeship with them and so we had already figured out most of the details. My biggest lesson learned from this would probably be not to be afraid to dream bigger. I'd been worried I wouldn't find an apprenticeship that I was passionate about but I ended up with one that I'm super excited to do. It's never too late to try something you love.
