Quotables:
"It's the sharing of our stories that really connects us."
"You don't need anything externally to make you fun"
"When we tap into those external things like alcohol or substances really we are just dimming our own light and we are diluting who it is that we truly are"
"There are so many things that we are capable of that we don't give ourselves credit for because we have given up our power"
The how is not your job. Our job is to continue to follow goodness. Continue to follow the things that make us feel good, the nudges, the inspiration. Take small action, 1% more each time. Continue to lean on the support that is available to you and the How reveals itself."
"We're really not supposed to do this all on our own and when we can simply surrender in that aspect
and allow ourselves to be guided, life feels a little easier, we start to see the synchronicities, life feels a little magical, we meet amazing people, opportunities show up for us."
