Eliza Dushku may have retired from acting, but it doesn’t mean that we don’t like the follow what she’s up to. Her television shows and movies were a big part of our lives.
And we love that for us. We also love that she’s inspired us that it is never too late to get an education and follow your path. Sometimes you may realize what that is later in life, and it’s okay to go after it at any time. Dushku graduated with her master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She posted a video on her Instagram account.
She wrote, “Graduating with my master’s degree (!!) feels like more than an achievement—it feels like a deep calling realized. True growth, energy, and passion—manifested.”
And then continued, “After nearly a decade of inner work and building a new life, I’m so grateful for this moment in time. To my highest self—for taking this wild leap away from everything I knew and making it happen 🙌. To my boys + ♥️—for the little sacrifices made & love you gave, each day to honor and support this dream 🙏. And to my family, friends—new and old—my colleagues/classmates, professors/teachers, and community, I give thanks: for rooting me on, encouraging me day in and day out, and affording me the grace, strength, and space to step fully into these past years of clinical training.”
Before finishing off with, “Today, I stand grounded and ready to support others on their journeys of becoming—through self-discovery, healing, and transformation. The connectedness I feel in holding safe, compassionate space for those who seek the undertaking is such lifeblood now. To possibility, hope, and healing, all.”
