Quotes from Natalie

"Whatever you do when you first open your eyes is what you prioritize in your life."

"As long as we are constantly trying to discover that calling, that purpose, and work toward making an impact, not just for ourselves or for others, that's where the magic happens."

"Fear will always be with you. It's like breathing. It's like heartbeat. It is there. It is going to be a part of your makeup forever. However, you can chose to act in spite of it. And that's courageous. Living courageously."

"Social media is glass windows into a curated space that we believe to be truth. But it's not."
