Episode Highlights:
"If you can create a really good culture at work or sporting club or in some sort of community group or inside your own friendship group, that's the most important part." — Todd Morgan
"The more vulnerable, the more authentic you are, the more it's you, the more it's heartfelt. That gives licence permission for the recipient, the kids in this case, to open up." — Trav Bell
"It's the little moments. It's the little shares. It's the full on case studies that you hear the results of people later on down the track swinging back in and certainly back to you and sharing." — Trav Bell
“Once you drop your ego, there's a direct correlation between how people will open up to you and how you'll start helping other people.” — Trav Bell
“If you can't find it, be the first. Keep being the first, keep being the change you want to see in the world. You've got to take that first step.” — Todd Morgan
