Quotes:

• “The more people do live events and interact with other members, the more trust they have in the community, and the more strength they put into their accountability partnerships.” -Cate
•  “Your network is your net worth.” - Cate
•  “When we invest, then that investment can go up and down of course, but it can grow exponentially…. in Yoga Health Coaching you sign up and think you are going to be doing this one thing, and certainly we are, we become Yoga Health Coaches and we change our business and our business model, but the growth we couldn’t have seen ahead of time are these kinds of connections.” - Suzanne
• “Like any relationship….  Those times when you start to feel separate from each other, the number one thing that is going to get you back on track is communicating again, showing up, and prioritizing time together.” - Suzanne
• “When you collaborate with someone, the sky's the limit.  You can do so much more than on your own.” -Aileen
