Reference: https://www.instagram.com/p/Dbtak-QDwOv/. Original multi-photo carousel by @chclaireh, 'Reminding myself how far I've come' — nostalgic reflection format pairing each photo with a personal-growth milestone caption (social growth, running, first paid gig, financial independence, growing older). Adapted structure to composer milestones; slide content below uses only real known facts (Mudita ensemble premiere) plus generic placeholders Daix should personalize.
Concept
Recreates the nostalgic "how far I've come" carousel format: each slide pairs a photo with a short reflection on a personal/career milestone. Adapted to composer milestones — real ones where known, placeholders flagged where Daix needs to fill in true specifics.
Slide-by-slide breakdown
- Slide 1 (cover): photo of you composing today. Text: "Reminding myself how far I've come 🎼"
- Slide 2: photo from when you first started writing music (placeholder — use your own early composing photo/memory). Text: "[fill in: your actual first steps into composing — a memory, a first piece, a first instrument]"
- Slide 3: photo of a score page or writing session. Text: "The first time I heard live musicians actually play something I wrote — that will always feel unreal." (only use if true; otherwise swap for your own real first-performance memory)
- Slide 4: photo/screenshot tied to your upcoming Mudita ensemble premiere in Orlando. Text: "Now I'm about to hear a new score performed live with Mudita ensemble in Orlando — past me would not believe this is real."
- Slide 5 (closing): a current photo. Text: "Growing as a composer is slow, but every one of these moments mattered. Swipe back if you needed this today."

Note
Original adaptation of the reference's reflection-carousel structure, not a copy of its content. Only the Mudita Orlando premiere is a confirmed real fact used here — other slides are placeholders and MUST be replaced with Daix's own true milestones before filming/posting; do not publish with invented personal history.
