QUOTABLES:

“This is a circumstance where I am putting myself in a position to evolve or am I being eroded. Like this is one or the other… because evolution is uncomfortable.” – Amber Cabral

“You don't have to sacrifice yourself to get the thing that you want. But you need to be clear about the thing that you want.” – Jessica Hurley

“My biggest thing about giving feedback is the same as it is with like showing up as an ally or building relationships. I think you need to be able to read the room. And some people are better at it than others, but you can grow in that space by practicing it.” – Amber Cabral
