“Leaders have to be learners.” - Latasha

“If you have a willing heart and you’re open to learn, and you’re in constant learning—God will cover you. God will make up for where you are missing those pieces as a leader.“- Andrea

“For the rest of my life, I will be undoing the first 40 years of my life where I grew up in a culture of not understanding the world around me.” - Margo
