There's hope. There's always hope." "I have my podcast Beautifully Restored to show people that your life can be 100% restored. You cannot only come back and get the things back that you lost differently, but you can have more than you could ever imagine … to be happier than you ever imagined." "If you don't have enough belief in yourself, sometimes you have to borrow somebody else's belief in you." "Be that person that you wished you had in your life." "Getting strong was a part of my healing." "Failing is something you're doing - you are active with - and failure means you stopped. You are not doing anything." "If you are going to step out and get out of your comfort zone and go for something big, you're going to fail. Everyone who's done anything big in life has failed." "If you're a failure in life ... my advice is, as long as you never quit you will never be a failure. Just keep going." "Failing means you are not trying for anything." "You learn when you fail."
