Podcast Quotes:
“You’re telling other people how to see you all the time, in every way that you’re showing up, in every interaction.” (15:45-15:49 | Ben)
“Behave as though you are the kind of person who belongs at the center of the room. Behave as though you are the kind of person who is comfortable having eyes on you. Behave as though you are the kind of person who takes up space in the world, that you have a right to take up space in the world.” (17:34-17:51 | Ben)
“If the tendency to apologize is part of your common vernacular, figure out what you can replace that with so that every time you say ‘sorry’ you can say something else instead.” (19:06-19:17 | Paige)
“A true apology is about realigning yourself with who you really are and coming to a new awareness about yourself,so that you show up in a different way in the world.” (25:55-26:06 | Ben)
“My rule of thumb is that all apologies are actually apologies to yourself.” (28:17-28:21 | Ben)
