Listen Later

Your hosts take the courageous step in revealing moments of their life that left them feeling exposed and vulnerable. But what's interesting is that after telling their stories, they gained more from this than they lost. We are not perfect, but it’s ok to not be perfect.

Maddy's quote, by Steve Jobs: Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Jeremy's quote, by Brené Brown from her book I Thought It Was Just Me (But It Isn't): One of the benefits of sharing our story is experiencing 'knowing laughter'. Knowing laughter is the laughter that results from recognising the universality of our shared experiences, both positive and negative. It embodies the relief and connection we experience when we share our stories.
