      Hi! Unfortunately yes, there have been times where I have made some mistakes only to realise afterwards. Continuously in jobs where you work with many people doing different tasks to make a project come together, you can find out afterwards that there are things you could or should have done better. But that is part of the professional environment and learning on the job. Hopefully if you are in a supportive work place, your colleagues will help you out to make sure everything works out in the end!

      Yes. I’ve doubted myself at many points on my journey up to this point, even in the last month or so. We get these feelings of doubt, but with the right support, you’ll work through it. I try to be a bit optimistic with these things and say that if I’m doubting myself, it’s because I’m doing something new/unfamiliar, but if I see it through then I’ll learn from it and be more confident in future. It helps having a supportive team around you during those situations
