Quiet Does Not Equal Weak

Posted by Sarah Young
“Never assume that loud is strong and quiet is weak.” ~Unknown This quote seems counterintuitive, right? For many years, I, too, scoffed at the idea.

Do you breathe fire?

Posted by Sarah Young
I recently started an amazing job – – an opportunity that I’m so thankful for. And I’ve gotten the opportunity to work with many accomplished, talented and badass women over the past 4 months – – to say it is inspiring is an understatement.
