“Wholehearted living is about engaging in our lives from a place of worthiness. It means cultivating the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think, No matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough.It’s going to bed at night thinking, Yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes afraid, but that doesn’t change the truth that I am also brave and worthy of love and belonging.”

“In fact, a good rule of thumb is that the more you connect with the world and live a fulfilled and vital life, the more trials and difficulties you’ll encounter. If you’re not prepared to accept the troubles and discomforts that go with life, you won’t be able to live it fully. That’s the challenge you face — to find a way to live this life, right here, right now, while also experiencing the difficulties, anxieties and uncertainties that come with it.”
