Quotes:
- “Viva Partnership started about 14 years ago, and it really started organically. We didn't have a business plan. We just were like, "Let's do this." And we grew and grew, and soon we were making a million dollars in revenue, but I wasn't paying myself, and the business wasn't healthy.”
- “I think there's a real opportunity to specialize and promote what we're doing to a wider audience. And create certification programs and a network of practitioners who specialize in these non-talk therapies.”
- “I think feeling bored is actually the signal from the body that there is something deeper that hasn't been tapped into yet. The exercises that we use bypass the frontal lobe and tap into the nervous system to uncover that path.”
