Connection gives purpose and meaning to our lives.

Until we can receive with an open heart, we are never really giving with an open heart.

Cool is the emotional straightjacket. It makes us less available for connection which makes us less equipped for leadership roles.

The willingness to show up changes us, It makes us a little braver each time.

There is nothing more vulnerable than creativity. . . It's not about winning, it's not about losing, it's about showing up and being seen.

If we want to fully experience love and belonging, we must believe that we are worthy of love and belonging.

Don't try to win over the haters; you are not a jackass whisperer.
