Quotes
00:20:03 “Nothing replaces personal interactions, mentorships, and human connections.” - H.B. Pasley
00:27:15, "I think vulnerability in particular is a superpower in anything you're trying to do. It's your biggest advocate because it does align with what your origin story is and your motivations." - Blake Chapman
00:30:38 “Insecurity is an awareness that you're not up to spec but instead of talking about not being up to spec you hide it. You over-achieve, you talk more, you get bossy, you’d do anything to shield yourself.” - H.B. Pasley
00:31:26 “If you want to heal from your own tendency of hiding your failures, panicking, and freaking out when you don't feel sufficient, the great thing to do is to do the opposite of what you feel at that moment.” - H.B. Pasley
00:32:03 “I've learned that when I'm in my best leadership modality, I'm actually talking about the things that I'm afraid of because people relate to failure more than they relate to success.” - H.B. Pasley
00:48:43 “Discovering who you're best with, who is magically attracted to you, who you're amazing with, that discovery process in itself gives rise to a new privilege.” - H.B. Pasley
