"When we talk about knowing yourself integrally today, we're talking about knowing yourself in the ways that it requires for you to understand yourself completely as a whole so that you can apply it to whatever it is the challenge or the opportunity of the day may be. - Linwood Paul [00:03:27]

"Radical change doesn't need to be extravagant. It doesn't need to be complicated." - Matt D’Amour [00:19:00]

"If you don't choose your path, someone else will choose it for you. Whether it's your boss, your spouse, your friends, whatever, they'll pick a path for you if you don't pick one." - Gage Mitchell [00:21:45]
