Quotes from the Episode

"Change isn't about forcing yourself into a new shape. It's about understanding your emotional landscape and creating a path that works with who you are, not against it."

"Your patterns aren't your enemies – they're signposts helping you understand what needs care and attention."

"Instead of trying to leap across the Grand Canyon of change, we're going to build tiny bridges – actions so small that they slip right under our emotional radar."
