Some interesting quotes

[Guest Nicole]

• A sage quote on getting through life's transitions.

"Ride the horse in the direction that it’s going." Journalist Carole Radziwill said this to me at a very transitional part of my life. I believe the quote originates from someone else, but her words hit me like a bolt of lighting. If something isn’t working, don’t force it. That applies to love, work, life, everything."

—Katie Sturino, model, body-positivity advocate, and founder of 12-ish Style

 

• Remember your value and your values.

My parents divorced when I was 3 years old, so I was raised by two women—my mother and my grandmother. They were "wellness people" before "wellness" was a commonly used word. Specifically spirituality, resilience, gratitude (and vegetables!) were things instilled in me from a very early age and have shaped who I am as a father, husband, entrepreneur, and CEO.

—Jason Wachob, mindbodygreen founder and CEO
