Notable Quotes:

"Discomfort is actually the currency to our dreams. You cannot make huge progress in your life if you're unwilling to feel uncomfortable, vulnerable, embarrassed." - Shira Gill
"Your job is to give [your children] clear physical boundaries. And so an example of that would be like, 'Hey, little Timmy, we have five big baskets and those are the vessels for our toys. So you get to pick five categories of things that you want to fill these baskets with. And that's going to be your variety of playthings.'" - Shira Gill
