I believe in the healing power of laughter. I believe laughter forces us to breathe.

I am a storyteller and a researcher, and I'm sorry the world has a hard time straddling the tension of those two things, but that's who I am.

Guilt: I'm sorry. I made a mistake. Shame: I'm sorry. I am a mistake.

It’s no longer a question of can I do it. It’s a question of: Do I want to do it?

Knowledge is important, but only if we're being kind and gentle with ourselves as we work to discover who we are.

I don't just want someone who says they love me; I want someone who practices that love for me every day.

'Crazy-busy' is a great armor, it's a great way for numbing. What a lot of us do is that we stay so busy, and so out in front of our life, that the truth of how we're feeling and what we really need can't catch up with us.
