Tweetable Quotes:
“Let's normalize the rage, let's name it. It might be showing up for you as thoughts, feelings, body sensations, obsessive behaviors, lashing out at your partner, lashing out on social media, whatever it is. Let's just name it with compassion.” – Brooke Jean
“We actually have more power and control. Then we realize you taking care of yourself and you create a safe home for your kids, one where they are unconditionally loved. That is powerful, that is productive, that is meaningful, and it has a ripple effect that can and will affect the world.” - Brooke Jean
