Quotes
• “People have asked me, ‘What do you say to yourself to boost yourself to go make a video without makeup?’ And I never thought about it. I wish I could tell you it’s a big personal growth. That would be a better story. I just told myself it doesn't matter…Find out what really lights you up inside. Everyone has something.” (19:09-19:44 | Dr. Becky)
• “Protect your calendar. I always think about that. At work, we schedule meetings. With kids, we schedule their soccer games. Scheduling proactively for things that matter to me is something I'm really good at.” (39:07-39:22 | Dr. Becky)
• “Every business is a business of humans, and motivation, and fear, and shame, and connection, and feeling good enough. Psychology is relevant in every single business. It's relevant in terms of your business product, but it's also just relevant from your business team, as you think about managing people, and you think about systems.” (31:05-31:25 | Dr. Becky)
