QUOTES
- "It's not just about getting new clients. It's about being your best self, sharing that with the world." - Laurie Chen
- "Not knowing my numbers and then the lack of processes are probably the two things that have caused me the most grief over a 45-year, approaching certainly, you know, really 50-year span." - Kim Sutton
- "We've got to stay ahead. We have to iterate. We've got to be able to pivot. And, you know, I like to kill sacred cows. It's just because something's been done that way. I have no interest in keeping doing it that way." - Kim Sutton
