QUOTABLES:

“We don't have to dishonor our boundaries for the sake of wanting to make other people comfortable.” - Alex Elle

“Perfectionism will leave you raggedy, will leave you run down, and will leave you thinking you're still not good enough even when you did your best. Discipline is staying committed and connected to the highest truth of yourself.” - Alex Elle

“Shoes are going to drop, but we can't be sit standing there waiting for it to drop.” - Alex Elle
