Quotes from the episode

You can treat people with dignity and respect even as you’re calling out their mistake. You can challenge them while being respectful.


It is true that people cheat, and that’s the reason we have rules in the first place in our lives.

-David Rettinger


There are always going to be social, personal, and individual pressures on us that cause us to do things that either we didn’t realize were wrong, or that we perfectly well know that are wrong, but that in that moment seem like a reasonable trade off to our behavior.

-David Rettinger


Take care of yourself first, whatever that looks like. You’re never going to help somebody else if you’re not on firm ground yourself.

-David Rettinger


You can treat people with dignity and respect even as you’re calling out their mistake. You can challenge them while being respectful.

-Tricia Bertram Gallant


It is important for us to remember to give grace to ourselves.

-Tricia Bertram Gallant
