    • "I don't understand...the word no...I can't wrap my head around it."
    • "I get told no everyday."
    • "We're not doing it the normal way."
    • "The rules are not necessarily in stone."
    • "I've had to learn that my age is not a limiting factor."
    • "I would say the most important thing is to lead with honesty."
    • "You never know what's going to happen...if you are honest and vulnerable...you put yourself out there...a lot of people appreciate that and will help you."
