Pain is like a life coach in your body. It’s what made me a life coach because I started paying a lot of attention to what made me hurt and what didn’t. It turned out my body was trying to steer me away from a life that was absolutely wrong for me and into a life that was absolutely wonderful.

Does this feel warmer or colder?

If you’re doing something you love with people you love in a place you love, you are going to create something of value to the world.

Anger elicits anger, fear elicits fear, no matter how well meaning we may be.

The end goal of all of this striving is to live joyfully, and that there are often more direct ways of achieving this than conforming to rigid standards set by social custom.

Remember, intimacy increases with honesty. Share less to keep people away and more to draw them closer.

The process of spotting fear and refusing to obey it is the source of all true empowerment.
