Key Quotes

“If you love your job and you love what you do, you need to be even more cautious.”

“It might’ve taken you months or years that got you into the state of burn out so it might take you a while to get out.”

“Taking the small actions and being consistent, that’s what moves the dial in terms of how you feel.”
