"It's one of the things that people in both films and books woefully underestimate—the amount of time and effort. We can write a screenplay that's fantastic, we can write a book that's amazing, but that's just a third of it. Getting it out there to the world is a whole different thing." – Autumn Karen
"I never wanted to take my inhales for granted because, you know, of the 8 billion people on earth, there's probably about 15 who stop breathing every second. We don't know when that last exhale is going to happen; we just know that every inhale we get is a gift." – Katie B. Happyy
“An uncluttered life is an abundant life, and that seems very counterintuitive. We tend to think of abundance as a lot of whatever, and therefore we clutter up our lives.

“When you're taking on a new role as an actor, you do a lot of digging into what makes your character tick and what's not on the page that you need to know to bring that character to life. So, a lot of that translates to helping fiction authors create their own characters.” – Sarah Welch
“Voice is the most valued part of yoga. How you communicate and how you are received and heard as a student, as a teacher, as a divine human being. When your voice has not been heard, how does one open this channel? Yes, chanting for sure. Yet a deeper exploration has to be heard from within, a longing to be heard.” - Karuna
“Most people think that mentors don't get anything out of it, but if you've ever given someone a gift that they've unwrapped and they have really loved it, it's exactly what they wanted and needed, the joy that you feel—that's what mentoring feels like.” – Dr. Deborah Heiser
“If you write for 15 minutes a day, you can get out about 250 words. In 200 days, that's 50,000 words. That's a book. So, where were you 200 days ago?” – Sam Bennett
“Mindfulness doesn’t take much time, just that permission and willingness to take some time for yourself and love yourself enough to give yourself your own inspiration.” – Jenny Garufi
