Aaliyah is the type of person that is hard working and driven. She had a life plan mapped out in her mind. She excelled at athletics and competing on the soccer field. However in a snap instance she suffered a giant setback — she tore her ACL which forced her to reevaluate her mental model on who she was as a person and what her future would be. At first this was a difficult blow and adjustment that she needed to make but as you will hear, Aaliyah is resilient, optimistic and focused on personal growth. She makes the best and most out of each situation that life throws at her. Even if life is a rollercoaster, we are all on the ride… might as well make the best of it. So much of our outlook on life is what determines if the roller coaster is fun, interesting, a challenge for the better or just a big scary thing that we don’t want to face.
