  “When you go into business together, it’s a marriage and it’s for the long haul.”

• “The biggest lesson is, we did not wait. I think that’s a big differentiator for any entrepreneur who’s getting by to thriving. We didn’t wait. We didn’t over-plan. We just went for it.”
  
  
• “At the end of the day, you could have a really basic room full of people, but it’s really about the people that are in there that makes it great.”
  
  
• “In order to succeed as an entrepreneur, one of the skills you have to learn is the skill of asking for help.”
  
  
• Steve has been telling Juliet for years that his ‘weird’ is very good for their partnership.
  
  
• Entrepreneurs often become paralyzed by overthinking, planning, and ‘what ifs’.
  
  “There’s never going to be a good time. If this is something you really want to do, just go for it.”
  
  “You just have to trust yourself enough to just do it.”

• The best part about entrepreneurship is that you can just change things.
  
  “If you have a new business idea, go for it, run with it, and try it out.”

• “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader.” – John Quincy Adams
