Memorable Quote: “And so I am much more comfortable with not being perfect. And I think it's made a difference in my mentoring. And the way I address school where I'm not as stressed out, I'm planning things better. So taking a step back and kind of experiencing not being the best, really made me better all around, I think” Justice Robinson. Episode Transcript: Please visit Episode’s Transcript.
