“Vulnerability is not a victory march, it’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah.⁣”

Vulnerability is not about winning or losing. It’s having the courage to show up even when you can’t control the outcome.

Feeling and owning our own shit instead of working it out on others is key.

Nothing has transformed my life more than realizing that it’s a waste of time to evaluate my worthiness by weighing the reaction of the people in the stands.

Staying vulnerable is a risk we have to take if we want to experience connection.

Our choices affect everyone around us. There is no such thing as “individual risk” or “individual wellness.

Surviving this crisis will take a shift in mindset, and that’s tougher than we think – especially when we’re afraid. ⁣

If you own this story you get to write the ending.

We can’t call ourselves free or brave when we keep running from the truth.

Our ability to live a life of love and meaning, to make the world a braver and kinder place.

The dark does not destroy the light; it defines it. It’s our fear of the dark that casts our joy into the shadows.

Always straddling the tension and trying not to tap out.⁣

You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.

Love is not something we give or get; it is something that we nurture and grow, a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them – we can only love others as much as we love ourselves.

Courage is like – it’s a habitus, a habit, a virtue: You get it by courageous acts. It’s like you learn to swim by swimming. You learn courage by couraging.

Imperfections are not inadequacies; they are reminders that we’re all in this together.

You can’t spell wholehearted without A.R.T.

Red is the ultimate cure for sadness.

If you wake up / And the day feels broken / Just lean into the crack

You are never too old or too broken. It is never too late to begin, or to start all over again.

I never wanted to spend a month away from my life. One time I was out on the road for three weeks in a row and I when I came back someone had broken into my apartment and the water had evaporated from the toilet.

Legacy leaders are the only ones wiling to pay the price to fix a broken culture.

My moral compass is so broken I can barely find the parking lot.

Don’t tell me peace has broken out.

The great question in life is the suffering we cause, and the most ingenious metaphysics do not justify the man who has broken the heart that loved him.
