"A lot of times you're more smart, more prepared, and more capable than the person you're sitting across the table from."
"So anytime that I'm doubting myself, I'm constantly having conversations with myself. And I'll say like, Okay, I'm not ready to make a decision on this yet, but keep talking to yourself about it. Stay calm, and you will get clarity on the decision. And then you'll have a decision."
"Humility is important, no matter how capable you are."

Quotes We Keep In Mind
“I stopped using the word empowerment, a while ago, because it reminds me of things like when people talk about giving voice to the voiceless. No one is voiceless right? And what we need to be doing is removing the things that are silencing them.”
“My culture is a big part of where my power is.”
“You can fall into a place of complacency and just be like well that's just how it's always been. That's hopelessness at work and that's in some ways the culture that keeps people marginalized.”
