Amy's conversation encourages us to be mindful of each other's strengths and weaknesses, embrace our innate traits, get clear on what success looks like before starting any project, use our strengths as a way to reach excellence with freedom, collaborate outside our usual circle, understand our own needs first, and give ourselves grace during difficult times.  Ladies, this episode will guide us through how understanding oneself can set one up for success! Quotes ·        “I define success as the freedom to be yourself”. (05:50 - 05:53)·        “No more resolutions to try and change yourself. If there's a goal you want to achieve, that's excellent. you need to get there in a way that's most natural for you”. (15:13 - 15:22)·        “There's no one right way to get things done, no good or bad results. It's just a matter of tapping into that and figuring it out”. (21:33 - 21:41)·        “I think it's human nature that if you don't really know enough about things in other people, you are going and try to help people. We want everyone to be just like us, like “Here's how I've been successful, so let me help you”. (26:14 - 26:31)·        “You can't find the freedom of yourself until you've got some other people that can take on some of your workloads, even if it's just helping in some decision making”.
