If you had a second chance?

Whilst I don't really have regrets I wish I had more confidence at many stages in life. Attending a different school about every two years in various different countries sapped much of my belief in myself. Coupled with the few perceived options available for girls, teacher, nurse, secretary, hairdresser, etc, when returning to UK at 17 with no British qualifications, an elderly relative to live with and no idea what I wanted to do, secretarial college was the least worse option. Many different jobs in all sorts of trades from hydraulic hoses to truck rental and electronics (where I met OH) on to my favourite and last job as adim/PA in a small private care home for adults with a learning disability. I was initially doubtful about the job, having some of the usual prejudices, but it was the most rewarding post of my whole career.
