Quote

I had lost a clear sense of the vision and values instilled in me as a child and was no longer driven by any mission or passion. I made the difficult decision to pull back from the noise of my life and reinvent the way I was living and leading.

I had to bring myself back down to being a normal person again.

I think my life did go the way it was supposed to go for me.

In my life I had no other choice than to become a strong person.

I couldn't live up to it. So I chose to run away.

So I really did stop and change what I saw I was about, and really try to put that principle into play as the center of everything - my friendships, my marriage, my career, my family, my way of being in the world. And that changed everything for me.

I felt my whole life was a facsimile of a life.
