Quotes:
“Life is hard enough. Let’s
bring some in as fuel that allows us to get through those
challenging moments in life.”
“I’m never someone who says you
can’t have something. I think that shuts down a kid. When they have
a choice, they feel empowered. For the rest of their life, they can
continue to make choices based on education and
information.”
“It’s not about saying
yes/no/must do. It’s all about education, inspiration, and
choice.”
