Key Quotes


“Some people love detail and are goal focused, and the other person just wants day to day, don’t want to look too far ahead”


“It’s having the conversations and dealing with the person based on the style of person they are”


“You need to be consistent in what you’re doing with your rehab if you want it to work or with pretty much anything in work.
