Episode Highlights
12:26 Growing up with Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome, with an abusive father cultivated me to be this very isolated child.
32:33 I was in my own world, no care for anyone else. It was easy for me to blame everyone and that understanding of “it’s me” that unlocked everything to move forward.
40:16 Yes, I should be doing this for me and it turned into that but I think when you have the motivation, you know how to harness it and you build that discipline.
57:58 What truly defines success is where you find your happiness. I believe that we all should live to find our purpose in life.
58:20 Happiness is a luxury. Not everyone can afford to be happy.
01:02:33 Instead of always just trying to be a “know-it-all”, when you are always learning, it makes you feel kind of stupid how much you don’t know. It really makes you happy to think there’s still so much to learn instead of always feeling “I know everything”.
