BEST MOMENTS

"Anything that limits you is not the truth. So that's a really clear way to find those limiting beliefs and those operating patterns that you have been working inside of that are creating you to be separate from who you are and creating you to be separate from who you want to because you're limited under these limited beliefs."

"If you're not aware of something, you can't shift it. You have to be able to see that blind spot. So getting really curious with a sense of compassion for yourself versus a sense of judgment allows you to start to shift that mindset."

"You can't shame yourself into evolution, you can't shame yourself into change. Only compassion and love can do that because compassion is really the liberation of suffering. It's love in action."

"Healing is not a place where you've arrived. Healing is a journey that starts with conscious awareness, and then you continue to do so."
