In Heather’s Voice:

 

“There's a make up about my personality and a god design with who I am that allows me to step into the role as advocate or shouter of worth in a way that is natural to who I am.”

 

“It is a bummer as a mom when you know that people don't see your children as worthy because they don't fit into that typical mold.”

 

“There was always this track in my life and in my heart towards an underdog even when I was little. I remember at school if I ever saw someone left out or hurting, I just couldn't even stand it. I couldn't stand the thought of somebody not being included and not being cared for.”

 

“It's just one foot in front of the other, one step at a time.”

 

“You just have to have a posture of humility when you're doing this work. I think the bravest thing is to humbly say something.”
