NOTEWORTHY QUOTES“We feel like if we pause for ourselves, we're going to miss something for someone else. But the truth is, if we don't take care of ourselves, we are no good for our community and for our clients.”“We have that fear that if you don't show up, every single hour of every single day, a life will be lost.
