“What I have learned to do over the years is to replace the negative self-talk with a new soundtrack by telling myself several times a day ‘You are more than enough.’”
“... I wake up every day excited about the possibilities ahead. Not that we don’t have challenges — there are plenty. But our vision is exciting and keeps me going.”
“... Listen first. So many times, we want to dive right in but do not know the details. Listen first to formulate a great plan for a better chance of success.”
“... Running a non-profit organization is difficult, so I intentionally surround myself with experts in the field, who direct programs with passion, safety, and member satisfaction in mind.”
“The highlights of my career are in the little moments and small successes. Moments of recognition, moments of gratitude, moments of bravery and moments in awe of the people I get to call friends and colleagues.”
“Happiness is a choice. In spite of any challenges you are facing in life, try to look for the things you can be grateful for and how your plight might be an inspiration for others.”
