Quotes
- “I think being your biggest advocate and doing what is best for you is something that exists in all aspects of our lives.” (08:39 | Shelby Anderson)
- “A lot of men don’t listen to women and their health issues… You don’t have our parts. You don’t know what we’re going through. You’re not quite as hormonal, which is not a bad thing. I mean, we all have hormones. Men have hormones also, but sometimes things are just out of whack and men don’t seem to care or listen or just write you off. And I’m learning from other women, how frustrating that is and who’ve had similar experiences.” (13:33 | Leslie Beck)
- “You’re not for everybody. Everybody’s not for you. And it just is what it is. It’s easy to say that because I'm like the queen of taking things personally and I take things to heart when it comes to dating. It’s just like a consistent conversation I have to have with myself internally that just because they’re not texting me 1 million times a day doesn’t mean that they don’t like me or just because they’re not checking the boxes that I’ve already identified in my mind, that is the way that I think they should behave if they like me. Just because they’re not doing that doesn’t mean that they’re not interested.” (27:29 | Shelby Anderson)
