Memorable Quotes:

"The beauty of that is I get to serve others in what I do. And that's where I feel so, so blessed. And what helped lift me out of my depression was not only supplementation and nutrition but also living a purpose and helping others. The more I gave, the less I was concerned about my own trauma or my own problems. And that was a beautiful thing." [00:09:33] – Shawn Wells

"The more I can love those wounded parts, love her completely, the more I'm holding space for myself to have those things. And everything's a reflection and a projection. And those are some of the most valuable lessons that I've got out of this is, the love we give is the love we receive and vice versa." [00:31:07] – Shawn Wells
