"So thank you, Beautiful, for listening to my observations about relationships, families, men, women, children, and all around life. That’s all we ever want, really. To have someone listen to what you’re saying and feel heard. You have made me feel heard and I will forever be eternally grateful for it." - Alice Agnello

"Money is just a tool. Life is a journey. And the two really go hand-in-hand when planning for retirement." - Stephanie Sammons

"So I think one of the biggest triggers is, is looking back and thinking that there's more in our past than there is in our future. And that is the biggest, I would say, stumbling block for us as women because we still crave and desire the past when there's more in our future, but you can't see it because you keep looking back." - Rev. Dr. Marisha Stewart

"I’m thankful that I have the power of choice. This concept was on my list last year and I built upon it this year. If I chose to keep saying no to myself then I have nowhere to go and only one person to blame if I don’t move forward. I have the choice to choose a new path that is definitely scarier than the one I’m on." - Alice Agnello

"Mindset is really what is going to determine whether you're successful going through the holiday season. And again, planning is everything. If you think a little bit ahead of time and come up with the strategies as how to navigate these issues, then ... I'm not saying you're not going to gain a couple of pounds through the season, but then you could easily get rid of them. The idea is not to really go into overdrive." - Renata Cambria

"My biggest piece of advice is to LET GO of perfection. This holiday season is NOT GOING to be PERFECT. Start thinking outside the box. If you can’t celebrate with your family and friends in the same room, how can you at least capture the spirit of the holidays and make everyone feel loved?" - Alice Agnello

"So I think the more that you can educate yourself as a parent, to be able to understand how the world is different today, you as a parent will feel more comfortable in your own skin, feel more comfortable with how you're parenting, so you can then begin to get the assistance that you need to be able to help your young adult through the process of being in their 20s." - Eileen Der Aris

"So I tell you this in the hope that you too may be the ‘no’ person in your family and to make a game of how you can turn those ‘noes’ into ‘YESES.’ What do you always say ‘no’ to especially with yourself? How can you turn that ‘no’ around and think about what you’re saying ‘yes’ to instead?" - Alice Agnello

"Because sometimes if you've been in a relationship for a long time, things start to get stale. You fall into a bit of a rut where you're just talking about bills and work and what we're going to have for dinner. You got to break that, you got to break that up. Start implementing some fun things because men like to have fun with their significant other."- Louis Morris

"Just be aware of how you’re feeling and let it roll through you. If you want to be in a funk, be in a funk. If you want to be quiet for a few hours in a day, then be quiet for a few hours. Do what you can for yourself to keep going. But if you think you’ve been rolling around in the same feelings for too long then please seek help from someone you know and trust whether that be a spouse, friend, or a professional. Asking for help is NOT a sign of weakness." - Alice Agnello
