Vulnerability is the absolute heartbeat of innovation and creativity. There can be zero innovation without vulnerability.

Courage - To tell the story of who you are with your whole heart.

Most people believe vulnerability is weakness. But really vulnerability is Courage. We must ask ourselves...are we willing to show up and be seen.

You cannot talk about race without talking about privilege. And when people start talking about privilege, they get paralyzed by shame.

Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are.

We can’t practice compassion with other people if we can’t treat ourselves kindly.

Belonging starts with self-acceptance. Your level of belonging, in fact, can never be greater than your level of self-acceptance, because believing that you're enough is what gives you the courage to be authentic, vulnerable and imperfect. When we don't have that, we shape-shift and turn into chameleons; we hustle for the worthiness we already possess.
