"Now is literally the best time to go all in on your dream… Give yourself the autonomy and time to think through who you really are. Abandon the things that aren’t serving you. Once you do that, you’ll show up as the best, most authentic version of yourself."

-Christa Barfield

Farmer & Founder of Farmer Jawn

"No matter where you are in your journey, whether that’s building a business or just trying to be a better version of yourself, there is no one else on this planet that is you. You may see someone else living the dream you want, but they aren’t doing it the way you’re going to do it." 

-Ashe Brown

Co-Owner of Pura Luna Apothecary

"Don’t be afraid to ask for help or to incorporate other people because when you have passion for an idea, it’s contagious and everyone will want to get on board."

-Mario Ordonez-Calderon

Co-Founder of Un Mar De Colores

"My advice is to stop taking yourself so seriously. Bring chaos and humor into your work. Maybe not if you work at a legal firm or something, but you know what I’m saying. Being able to laugh and see the light in situations really carries you through. You realize not everything has to feel so daunting." 

-Courtney Reynolds

Creator of Napkin Apocalypse

"So often what we admire in other people is a reflection of ourselves. You have to step back and say, ‘I love those qualities in that person because I possess those qualities myself.’ Then you go out and start building a life around them."

-Jenny Schatzle

Motivational Speaker

"It’s one thing to create something and another to see it through. My advice to anyone starting out on a dream is to learn as much about it as you possibly can: buy every book, watch every Youtube video, invest in the classes. You really have to believe in yourself to be able to chase a dream."
