Quotes:

"For some people, it's their warrior and for some people it's their healer, but I want people to find that and that inside of themselves. Because throughout my 16 years in banking and investment banking, it's a tough job, a lot of pressure. I was struggling to bring that side of me to the forefront and to say, this is what I want."

"You can be a better doctor. You can improve yourself. And it's same thing in finance. You go into finance because, at least for me, that was almost like a no-choice. No complaints here. I had a lot of fun, I made a lot of friends, I got better at a lot of different things, I acquired skills, but at the end of the day comes a time when you have that thing inside of you that says There is something that is not aligned."

"And maturity has nothing to do with age, by the way. And I really needed apparently to have stage four cancer. And to drop on the floor to have very intensive chemotherapy to continue working, because, for me, cancer was annoying. It was like, why is this happening now? I have so many transactions. I don't have the time."
