Badass Quotes:
🔺 “If you have a growth mindset, which means you believe you’re coachable, you believe we are always growing, learning, and becoming better so that failure - or whatever that actually means - is part of it.”
🔺 “I think most people are afraid because they associate fear with failure.”
🔺 ”I am a person and a leader, where I am in motion. I want to learn by doing.”
🔺 “I am not afraid of trying.”
🔺  “As coaches, we push our teams and we push individuals to the version of themselves that they can’t yet see or to the version of the organization or the event that is not yet seen. That's our job, is to see beyond.”
🔺 “People pushing to create something where there wasn't - I am fascinated by that. Athletes push themselves that want to go to the Olympics or they push themselves to run a 4 minute mile or they push themselves to do what actually was impossible until someone does it. And then it’s very possible.”
🔺 “I am a massive believer in human potential.”
🔺 “Almost every routine that I had was turned upside down on its head. The one that wasn’t, that was game changing for me, was my morning routine.”
🔺 “I set my energy with intention every day, and I am not perfect every day.”
🔺 “Every morning I am praying and intending for the thoughts, words and actions that will move me to be the best version of myself and the best leader I can be every day. And then I try to reflect on that every night. That’s how you get better.”
🔺 “I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t choose optimism. It is a choice. Your growth mindset is a choice and so I choose it every single day.”
🔺 “I have to work on my optimism and energy every day because life is hard.”
🔺 “It is hard to lead."
🔺 “Leaders want to have a vision and put a plan together and get in motion.”
🔺 “I think we are all here for a reason and I want to be purposeful and reach that potential. I feel like it is my responsibility and my right.”
