Standout Quotes:
“Have you ever been driving on a one-way street, like the wrong way? Like you’re in the one way and then you realize, ‘Oh crap. All these cars are coming towards me. I’m going the wrong way.’ Like that moment of realization that you’re going the wrong way.” -Diana [15:40]
“I encourage new counselors. I think that’s good, because you’re building a relationship with someone. It’s very deep. And sometimes people see counselors for way too long where it’s sort of like now they become more, you know, part of your life, and I think you need someone that is not part of your life.” -Diana [42:28]
“When you get in a better place and you do some of that honoring of the pain, and you rediscover who you are, suddenly you give permission for your dreams.” -Diana [47:32]
