the one who built it
tina just called. jurainstituttet is closing. everything except my part โ the part that actually made money. she’s offering me jura akademiet for almost nothing. i think i said yes before she finished the sentence.
i’m twenty-seven. i dropped out of law. i wrote other people’s theses for money i’m not proud of. i moved six times in four years. i’ve been circling for years, and right now something is clicking into place.
i have this idea. not just jura akademiet. bigger. law, medicine, psychology, business. a whole system. nobody in denmark has done this the way i see it. i’m calling it studieakademiet and i know โ the way i knew at eleven that i couldn’t stand in a church and lie โ that this is the thing.
every strange job, every domain i jumped into and left, every skill i picked up sideways โ it’s all converging. for the first time in my life, nothing is wasted.
i helped a woman in her forties get accepted into medical school. she cried on the phone. i didn’t tell anyone about it, but i think about it constantly.
build something. whatever it is. you know how.
