You have to really have an idea of where to take action and what kind of blocks might get in your way and then take action. That’s the biggest thing. Just show up and do it.” -Sasha Kill “I always believe that how you do one thing is how you do everything and when you show up fully, so much good happens.” -Emily Williams
