QUOTES

“It’s my story. So when you own your story, when you own your words, when you own your expertise, you own it everywhere. And the way you show up in the world is. It just reflects that, it’s your energy, that shift because you are not that person hiding anymore. You are that person standing strong in who you are and owning all of who you are.”

“As the person living it very often, we had childhood ones coming up and childhood stories. And when they write those stories in the book for another reader who doesn’t know them, they tend to write it from an objective point of view. And they often change their perspective on what happened to them, or they revisit the same story. And they realize that that story, that the narrative that they had had that doesn’t fit anymore. Because they’re over it now. They want to rewrite that story.”

“You don’t have to fit all of your skills in your business tagline or in the services you sell. And that doesn’t mean that you don’t have to bring them out in your business, but you don’t have to promote it as such. So you just pick something and then all of your skills will come.”

“And as a multi-passionate I think we’ve got that thing that we know that if we don’t succeed at that one thing, We’ve got several ACEs up our sleeves. So we ain’t going to fall on our feet anyway.”

“Your story matters. Your voice matters, whatever it is that you have to share matters, even if someone else has spoken about it before. No one did it the way you multi-passionate would be able to do it. So don’t doubt yourself.”
