Power Quotes From The Show
Gratitude Is Our Life Force
Passion Over Purpose Explained
"Self-awareness is really important and allows you to understand who you are and what you were made for. Yes, we were all made for awesome things but sometimes we can caught up in the pursuit of, 'I need to find my purpose.' If we just shift our perspective and realize that our purpose is to live more on purpose, be more present in each moment, and be more intentional of each step we take, then what is revealed to us is our passion." - Shannon Kaiser
Living From Our Heart
"We're more than just what we do. Sometimes we get stuck on defining ourselves by our job titles, what we do, and what we're contributing. I think the most important thing to know is that if you're living from your heart, you're making a difference by being true to yourself. That itself can help inspire others because it's also being of service to others." - Shannon Kaiser
