This week Machell Hudson shares with us the final episode of Reflection Health Podcast. Thank you for listening and joining Machell and Katy on this journey!
Episode Highlights
- Gratitude, growth, and not goodbye but see you later!
Quotes
“I couldn’t mimic how I felt when I was doing this with her.”
“The friends that I have gained in the last 4 years … I am still in awe. I don't know what I would do without them.”
“We have to share the gratitude that we have and the people we have been blessed with in this world.”
“Leadership is not magnetic personality, that can just as well be a glib tongue. It is not "making friends and influencing people", that is flattery. Leadership is lifting a person's vision to higher sights, the raising of a person's performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations.”
“Our walk on this planet while we are here is our testimony.”
“The most growth comes out of those most uncomfortable moments.”
“This world of dentistry is full of leaders and they are pulling leadership out of people that didn’t know they had it in them.”
“Never miss an opportunity to tell someone what they have within them, they may not know, they may not get it, and they may not believe it. They need you to believe in them until they believe in themselves.”
