"I love change. I know, that’s easy to say when you're an agent of change. Change is also terrible and hard and painful. This is the balance we live in. People often come to me and say, “Why do you talk about change so much?” I'm a realist who knows change is always coming, like it or not. That's what drives me - getting myself more comfortable with change. And that's what I'm hopefully helping my listeners and readers with, too; really, we're helping each other."
