Quotes:
“Not everything happens for a reason. Some things are just awful. It's what you do with the pieces afterward that’s really going to talk about the quality of your life.” — @dr_robynehd [0:09:47]
“Motivational quotes only work if you put in the work. Simply sticking those post-it notes on your mirror [isn’t] going to do anything unless you action it.” — @dr_robynehd [0:15:02]
“We are very much addicted to this stress-cycle behavior that I'm seeing in my work right now – we were meant to have a lot more ease.” — @dr_robynehd [0:17:16]
“Living the dream shouldn't kill you. And it was burning me out.” — @dr_robynehd [0:19:40]
“You can’t hate yourself healthy. That's probably the biggest misconception about all of this. We can't shame ourselves into doing better. We can't guilt ourselves into changing behavior.” — @dr_robynehd [0:23:01]
“Historically, as a species, we have been able to rally. We have grown, we've learned, we've evolved, we've adapted, and I am so hope-filled for the future for my children, [and] for my grandchildren.” — @dr_robynehd [0:36:17]
