NOTABLE QUOTES:

“If you don’t have the inclusion, nothing else matters. You can have the most diverse group of people and get all the resources, but if they don’t feel a part of the organization, it doesn’t matter. They’re not going to be happy.”

“Communicating is uncomfortable, and getting your feelings out is uncomfortable. But you have to do it to be able to grow as an individual and grow with the people around you.”

“Just because you have something to say doesn’t mean you should say it. And in fact, sometimes silence speaks louder than words.”

“With our education system, you get a job, and you’re gonna stay in that job for the next 50 years. And that’s going to be your career. But what people fail to remember is that your personality, your hopes and dreams, they change every five years.”

“Success is not comparing yourself to anyone else and developing your relationship and empathy skills.”

“When you become grateful for life, and you start to look at people, everyone has this beautiful story, and everyone is unique.”

“Pain leads to purpose, which leads to a platform in that order. You don’t get to purpose without working through the pain.”
