Tweetable Quotes:

“Instead of trying to hold on so tightly to ‘This isn't good enough’ and we just are thankful that it's done, thankful that it's out in the world, thankful that it's accessible, so many good things can happen because then we start putting more of ourselves out there so that the right people can find us.” - Breanna Gunn

“You just have to be you, tell your truth. Whoever is attracted to you will be attracted to you. You can't serve everyone.” - Marilen Crump

“Sometimes you get so tuned into wanting everything to be perfect that you miss some of the simplest things about your own process.- Marilen Crump
