“I mean it sounds crazy, and it’s not comfortable thinking about the entire world listening in on your most vulnerable thoughts in that moment, or your insecurities, your fears, your worries, your doubts, or your big goals that maybe you’re not on track with. We thought, ‘You know what? This is what real people, like you listening, are struggling with.’” — Chris Goodman [0:01:19]
“I want you to think about what is the cost of you not taking the emotional risk you need to take in order to go after what you want in this life. Because when you see that the cost of that is far greater than the emotional risk, you will make a decision in that moment.” — Lindsey Goodman [0:09:17]
“I have no other choice than to be willing to believe thoughts that don’t feel true yet.” — Lindsey Goodman [0:24:28]
“So far I’ve gotten a result that’s reflected the emotional risk I’ve been willing to take. So if I want to help more people take more emotional risk, I have to be willing to take more emotional risk. ” — Lindsey Goodman [0:28:07]
