Quotes:

"I'm career-driven. I'm growth-minded. I'm passionate. I'm ambitious. And I'm also a crier."

"When expressed appropriately, research supports the idea that crying can help moderate stress, stimulate thinking and promote bonding and empathy in groups."

"Crying is okay. It shows your passion. It does not make you too emotional. It does not make you less capable. And it does not make you a less than leader. It makes you human."
