Notable Quotes:

 

[00:8:45] For the first time in memory I chose me. I spent the next five months with no job. Somebody here me…No job, no income. But it was the most valuable time because I had time to figure out, “how in the world did I get here? How did I find myself in this place? And most of all, how do I dig myself out of it?” And that's what I'm here to share.

 

[00:0011:30] I know for me and that transition in 2019, I was escaping. Like I literally hit rock bottom. You don't have to get to the point that you have to escape. You can plan a transition.

Then you can see clearly and you can make a plan. Rather that transition is 6 months, one year, five years, whatever it is for you, I just wanna say we escaped because we had to, but you don't have to!

[00:16:13] Many times we choose our community out of convenience, so our family members, our physical neighbors, our colleagues, the people that we're just in their lives because of convenience. And that doesn't mean you don't love them or honor them. Not in a disrespectful way. But they are your community because they're already connected to you.
