Lubna Azmi sees herself as a laidback person, but even she isn’t immune to the pressures and anxieties that come with planning for the future.
“I’ve seen how fast people’s professional lives can fall apart, especially during the pandemic,” says Azmi, who is a second-year international studies and sociology major at Johns Hopkins. “During quarantine, I was asking myself, have I been too selfish thinking about doing what I want to do? Should I be thinking about how to better support my family, including the family I create in the future?”
