“Am I going to write the safe book or am I going to write the true book?”
“In order to be raw and vulnerable, that requires deep and profound honesty with yourself.”
“You can think of worry as both an inner child throwing a tantrum as well as a parent trying to protect us at the same time.”
“What are the excuses that you’re telling yourself and how do you face them?”
“There is something inside of you dying to be born and you know it. You feel it.”
“What is that thing that is dying to come through you and how will you spend five minutes with it today?”
