Learning to Drive at 25: Facing My Fears and Taking the Wheel

Growing up, my mom was always against me learning to drive early, and honestly, I never pushed for it. My anxiety about driving was so intense that I just let her take me everywhere. Now, at almost 25, driving feels like this huge, impossible task. But lately, I’ve realized how much independence I’m missing out on. If you’re in the same boat, know you’re not alone.
