Quotes

• “If you can’t take care of yourself, you can’t take care of anyone else.” (09:22 | Leslie Beck) 
• “Constantly, you’re just reassessing what you’re willing to put up with in life, in work, and in love.” (09:22 | Shelby Anderson) 
• “80-year-old, 90-year-old you, would they say, ‘You’re busting your ass to build your business. But then, what do you have to show for it when you have lost connections with your friends or you pushed people away because you’ve just been so busy unintentionally.’ It makes you reassess what’s important to you… And that's what I did. Friendships and relationships are important to me.” (12:25 | Shelby Anderson & Leslie Beck)
• “People need to put some effort into those first dates. I think sometimes there’s people who are like, ‘No, they should just see me as I am with no makeup or whatever.’ And I feel like, ‘No, let’s put our best foot forward.’ Yes, we want to be liked for just who we are but we should present well… I don’t agree with that because I will feel insecure if I don’t feel like I look good. I feel better and I am more confident when I look good.”” (30:01 | Leslie Beck & Shelby Anderson)
