Memorable Quotes

"Love is what motivates you to actually change and make it work. Many people don't become the greater expression of who they came here to become because they don't understand the game."

"If you want to heal your relationship and allow it to become what it's meant to become, you have to close the back door. There is no way a man can hold that container if simultaneously you're putting the pressure on his back that you're going to leave him."

"Healing happens when you can create a container of loving presence and actually allow your partner to be the trauma that they've been without reacting to it. That's what real love is. That's what real power is - the ability to not react when our partner is reacting."
