Nay-sayers, or just realists?

Holcomb says that those who don’t come from financially blessed backgrounds might face some realists who feel like nay-sayers along their journey. “It can be hard to make ‘big moves’ when sometimes well-intentioned people in their network do not think the decisions are rational or realistic. The sacrifice requires significant time and financial investments. It is a tough situation to navigate due to the disparities many of us from disenfranchised communities experience. There is not the same capital or resources to begin with, so it is a gamble to do anything outside of the norm.”
