I couldn’t take a job where people’s lives were in my hands and I didn’t feel confident that I had what I needed to be successful. It was a risk I didn’t want to take. I had worked hard to build a reputation, and I wasn’t going to throw that away—I knew there would be another opportunity. I hadn’t always believed that, but the older you get, the more confident you can be about what you’re good at. The more places you can see where you belong.
