"Listen, the reason we feel like we are failing at life is that we have the wrong job descriptions for the things we care about the most. We think our goal is to prevent ourselves, our kids, our friends and our partners from pain. But that is not only impossible, it's not true.
It is not our job to protect our people from pain. In fact, it is our job to point our people directly toward their pain and say: "I see your pain and it's big. But I see your courage and it's bigger. Your story is inside your pain. No story, no glory. So walk through that fire and learn that you don't need to avoid life's fires - because you are fireproof."
