Memorable Quotes

"Every single parent has a conditional love for their child. But I kept seeking this unconditional love, and I kept giving meaning to the experience of not getting that unconditional love, that it must be me, it must be something wrong with me, and then building coping mechanisms to actually deal with that."

"I realized, wow, almost every single man that I'm interacting with, and also in many cases, women that I'm interacting with in my life, I'm not actually having a relationship or a conversation or an interaction with them. I'm having a relationship or conversation or interaction with a dad whose love I'm seeking."

"When you can literally let go of the resentments that you have for your mom or for your dad or for anyone, you open up this space where you deepen your personal relationship with your higher power. Because there's now space to do that. It's not being filled with all these limiting beliefs and these unintelligent thoughts."
