QUOTES AND KEY TAKEAWAYS
“We want to put ourselves, or keep ourselves, in a box of what we think we should do.”
“Nobody can relate to perfection.”
“Make fear your friend.”
“Go out there. Whatever you are going to do, have fun with it. Even if it does not go how you think it is going to go. Tweak it. And move on.”
“I have gone where I thought I needed to go. Most of it I have no background in.”
“I had absolutely no idea where I wanted to go but I knew there was a way to get there.”
“When you take the labels and limitations off of yourself, it is incredible and powerful.”
On reimagining your path: “It starts by letting ourselves dream. We honestly do not do that enough. Dream about the things that seem absolutely crazy to you. Dream about what would it look like. Where would you be. “
On overcoming fear: Listening to your body. “Being able to recognize it. Learning how to calm your body down and not lead your mind, that anxiety and fear, take over. That is the self-doubt coming out in you.”
“Fear looks absolutely different for everyone. Once you think you have it conquered, it will find a new way (to return).”
On overcoming fear: “Get yourself out of that comfort zone as much as you as can. Do it intentionally.”
