Quotes:
● Your work is not for everybody. And perspective makes a big difference in how you see things. So, if someone comes back, it's okay to engage and go, “Why do you feel that way?” Because that might help you improve your next work that you work on.
● Your business's storytelling becomes personal and intimate. It becomes relatable because there are other people who are going through the same things as you. So, your brand tells the story of you. That's how people get to know you.
● You have to be growing, too. So, it makes a huge difference to invest in your well-being. That makes a huge difference. That's how you discover what you're supposed to do. So, that's always going to be my go-to. I'm always going to say: Invest in yourself.
● Take care of yourself. Because how can you care for others if you're not taking care of yourself?
