We're so used to quieting ourselves and our needs so that we can focus on others, that we don’t give ourselves permission to turn around to even ask ourselves what do you want. Michele Williams
Much like when an interior designer goes into a space, empties it all out, we need to empty it all out. Our bloated schedules empty it all out. Clean out a closet? Empty it all out. And then curate intentionally one thing after another, choose what you let back in. Katie McDonald
I will say the one thing that I had to learn early on is when I asked the question, I couldn't say, okay, achiever Michele, you've asked the question, now get up and go do something. You have to sit there and listen. Michele Williams
Celebrate any progress, celebrate any learning as growth opportunity and then you'll show up for more growth opportunities. Katie McDonald
