Best Quotes:
06:36 - 06:57 • "What if there are behaviors that we can engage in that are within the span of our control, that when we implement these behaviors, any time, challenge, change and complexity or the three Cs show up in our lives, that we too, like the transportation could create a better outcome for ourselves?" 27:15 - 27:24 • "When you can actually go back into those things, use them for strength, it's really a growth moment. It's not a failure moment at all."

54:00 - 54:15 • "The extent that we can bring those together into one operating system or as close as possible, that can serve energy, especially when we're facing challenge and vulnerability, is the cornerstone of authenticity and empathy."
