QUOTES
- “Just knowing something doesn’t mean you will change. You can read all the self-help books in the world -and I call them ‘shelf-help’ because you read them, they sit on the shelf- if you do nothing, nothing changes. ” – Susan Katz [13:45]
- “We all have a choice whether we want to stay in the limiting belief or whether we want to live from our empowering belief.” – Susan Katz [20:53]
- “I would say that a coach is also someone who should be pushing you out of your comfort-zone. Because staying comfortable doesn’t cause growth. Getting uncomfortable causes growth.” – Susan Katz [39:30]
