 See, when I moved to Anchorage in 2008 at 20 years old, I had lived in Los Angeles my whole life up to that point. I left behind the pollution, homelessness issues, and crime-ridden streets for the beautiful and cleanly Anchorage, Alaska. I did so thinking that moving out of LA would solve most of the problems in my life and that I could get a new start here, and I did. However, what I didn't realize was that I was unknowingly bringing my childhood mindset with me.
