These experiences formed those limiting beliefs that we carry throughout our life which could potentially affect our personal or business growth.

Standout Quotes from Doctor TK:
"Anytime that I was exposed to community violence, I would bounce back and go about my day like nothing ever happened. Am I saying that that's healthy? Hell no. But it's also a defense mechanism that has protected my life, my mindset, and honestly my sanity for a very long time." (18:53)

"Are you actually learning from your experience or are you just looking at this experience as a failure because it did not come easy to you?" (25:56)

"It wasn't the school's job to train you as a biz owner. You went to school to become a life change agent, aka become an employee. It's not the school's fault that you were not trained to have a profitable practice." (26:31)

"The more you wait on something to change without you making any moves (meaning moving toward the solution), the more you remain stagnant in your business. And that may equal where you are now in your biz, you have plateaued. You may be making a lot of money in your private practice... but can you truly say that you see all of your ideal clients? ...you get paid your true value with all of your clients? ...your caseload is your ideal schedule (meaning you see your clients only on days and times that you want to) ...and you're actually living life abundantly even outside of your practice by doing what you want even if that includes other streams of income?" (29:02)
