Having done it the wrong way, by bulldozing in, my advice is to start really small. You can also love people from far away. You don’t have to come and see people. You don’t have to have political conversations with everyone, even when they’re trying to poke the dragon.” — @heyandreaowen [0:15:20]

“Sometimes, we don’t know. You can take all the tools from all the intuition experts of the world. Sometimes, at the end of the day, [I] still don’t know. I have to just make a decision and see what happens on the other end.” — @heyandreaowen [0:25:25]

“For people who are continuously stuck, and they have all the self-help books, and they listen to all the podcasts and they just can’t seem to take any action, I would say: go see a therapist and see if something’s going on with your nervous system.” — @heyandreaowen [0:29:02]

“Did you show up from a place of confrontation and blame and pointing fingers and not taking any responsibility for your own stuff, not listening, et cetera? That’s not a success. A success is that you’re prepared, you’re kind, you’re compassionate, you own up.” — @heyandreaowen [0:31:28]
