Quotes

“It's looking you back in the mirror every single morning. You've been given God-given abilities, God-given creative frameworks in your brain. You've been given a calling and a gift and there's certain things that only you can do and I think oftentimes we take that for granted.” - Justin Roethlingshoefer

“They found success in chaos because they've been the one to create the solution. And so that's what they trust today. And because of that, that's what they continue to lean into. And they fail to come back to creating predictable and sustainable solutions for themselves when it comes to health and making sure that they are well.” - Justin

“We fail to recognize and realize that there's a cost to leadership. There's a cost to doing business. There's a cost to owning a company. And there's a cost to going on this mission. And the remedy is not a gym membership. The remedy is not a massage once a month. The remedy is not going on a vacation with your family once a year. The remedy has to be built as intentionally and as consistently as you've built your business.” - Justin
