Let’s revisit a classic question we were all asked at some point.
You know the one.
“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
Some of us had crystal clear answers.
Some of us panicked and copied the kid next to us.
Some were wildly realistic.
Some were pure fantasy.
It’s a fun (and slightly revealing) way to get to know each other and maybe reconnect with a younger part of ourselves that dreamed without spreadsheets or supervision contracts.
I have a very clear memory of being asked this at school when I was little.
Teacher: “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
Me: “An artist… or a mermaid.”
Honestly? Still feels aligned. 🧜♂️🎨
