“It hit me, the idea that to make change happen, we need to empower women and heal the hearts of men.”
“Vulnerability is a strength, that once you embrace it, is impossible to live without in any of your relationships.”
“As an entrepreneur, we need to intentionally connect to our roots and pull our community close around us. It can be hard to hold onto your tribe and your community when life is moving at such a pace.”
“The behaviours that I succumb to, they may not be my fault, but they are my responsibility.”
