• Revenge can be a fierce motivator and a strong enough "why" to drive change.
• Victim vs. Victor mindset: how you choose to view yourself shapes your reality.
• Comparison is the thief of joy.
• One person’s beauty doesn’t take away from someone else’s.
• There is no separation between body and mind; how you show up in the gym reflects what’s going on in your subconscious.

• If you're a female (especially in your early 20s), weight training is the most beneficial form of exercise for you.
• On the other side of restriction is always bingeing.

• Inflammation is the root cause of disease; more stress in your body equals more inflammation.

On today's episode:

• Book Referenced: Love and Respect, by Emerson Eggerichs
• There is great strength in understanding the differences between men and women in any type of relationship.
• When you understand each other's differences, you can start to work together more effectively.
• Much conflict arises when men are frustrated that women aren’t like them, and women are frustrated that men aren’t like them.
• We are all unique, which is why you’ll never fully know someone—there simply isn’t enough time to learn every aspect of what makes them who they are.
• Conflict in male/female relationships often stems from either the man feeling disrespected or the woman feeling unloved.
• You’ve likely contributed to the conflict in some way. Take a moment to reflect on how you can take ownership of your part.
• Owning even the smallest way you contributed to the conflict can often disarm the situation and lead to resolution.
