Memorable Quotes:

"What works for me isn't going to work for everyone else, and what works for everyone else may not work for me. I just need to find what's feasible for me to do right now & trying to be consistent with it, but also giving myself grace if it's not the same every single week."

"It is truly quality over quantity because if you have a quality, engaged audience, you don't need X amount of followers. If you have an audience that's there for you, it will convert into what they're showing up for & how you're providing value for them."

"Success looks different for everyone, but at the end of the day, it's all about the quality of what you're producing & how you can bring value. That looks different for everyone."

"You can't compare your day 1, day 5, day 20 -- to someone else's journey who has been doing it for 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 etc. years...Don't compare anyone else's audience, community, or work to your own."

"At the end of the day, you have to continue to remember to show up. And I think that's what people want is that you don't have to show up perfectly. You just have to show up. I get on on good days & bad days and I think when people see the real you, when you show up good, bad, happy, sad, they begin to trust you & that's the biggest thing with all of this is that when you have people that trust you, you can move mountains in this industry."
