“Can I release myself of the weight of generational trauma and step into who I am meant to be?” – Suze

“I could really see the distinction between what I thought was true because of how I lived my life until then, and what was really true—what I could feel inside my body.” – Jakko

“We can’t work for tomorrow. We can do all kinds of reasonably well thought-out things, but the world is not a reasonably thought-out place.” – Suze

“All of these dramas and traumas and patterns, if we dive underneath them, that’s where we find the divine part of us.” – Suze

“A lot of worries we have as humans are really keeping us from our best possibilities.” – Jakko
