"I get to travel in a way that's more relaxing."

"I found that I could study medicine and do it from this kind of complimentary integrated perspective instead of traditional Western."

"With your Western medical doctor or with your other approach or with whatever it is you're doing to make sure that your health care lines up with what's most important to you and what your own values are."

"I think we settle for less than."

"I don't mean to just focus on the physical because it's often the emotional."

"Busy is the new black."

"The true north for me is looking at three things: what your values are, how you want to feel, what do you want to create in your life."

"Happy is so many different things."

"When in history do we eat food out of boxes or packages? Never!"

"It's more than your body can handle."
