Quotes from the episode

Defiance is a practice, not a personality.

-Dr. Sunita Sah

Defiance is a skill that’s available and necessary for all of us to use.

-Dr. Sunita Sah

For many of us, the distance between who we think we are and what we actually do is enormous.

-Dr. Sunita Sah

To defy is simply to act in accordance with your true values when there’s pressure to do otherwise.

-Dr. Sunita Sah
