Quotes:

"We end up hanging on to so much of the noise that literally drags us down and that also literally drowns out so many of the other things in our lives that we should be paying attention to."

"When we’re distracted by clutter in our environment, whether we know it or not, or whether we realize it or not on a conscious level, we are actually distracted mentally and emotionally as well."

"I try to really set my intentions on what is meant to be."

"I truly believe with everything in me that this is what I'm meant to be doing and this is why I've come through everything that I've come through."

"Our digital footprint and our digital life is responsible for more of our mental clutter and our mental poisoning than probably anything else."

"When the stress and the tension and all of that leaves the body, guess what? It frees up the mind."

"Vision boards can be a very, very, very powerful thing and a powerful reminder for you to really be able to see what those intentions are."

"One of the best ways you can mentally detox is to stay really tapped in to practicing kindness and compassion and love."

"I savor all the moments, all the little moments, every little thing... understanding how sweet that really is."

"Stay curious. Stay engaged in this grand thing we call life."
