Memorable Quotes:
“We get bombarded with information about what satisfied is for this general collective, what we should be satisfied by what we need to be driving towards, what we should be doing in order to reach this holy grail of satisfaction or fulfillment.” (2:05, Krista)
“I would go to what I call the kind of 2 C’s, which is comfort and convenience. We live in a world, in a culture, right now that drives comfort and convenience.” (6:07, Krista)
“We reconnect to our own unique expression and creation, and that is the beautiful deep well of satisfaction when we connect to that (creation), and access that again and again.” (19:54, Krista)
“Why are you so resistant to be enthusiastic or to celebrate at the level that you might actually experience it?” (22:02, Krista)
“The indoctrinations we get early on, like be responsible, be mature, grow up.
All those things are important, but not at the expense of creativity and imagination and expression.” (23:13, Krista)
