 Key Quotes by Sha Sparks

1. “I decided to add coaching as well and speaking and I’ve written a book is because I was learning so much and investing in myself so much that it was overflowing onto my clients and I would tell them the stories of what I learned this week and they’re like this is fascinating stuff.”
2. “The key to listening is to really listen to the people around you that you trust and they’ll tell you if you need a business.”
3. “When people ask you at least three times the same question. There’s your business.”
4. “The number one cause of the veteran suicide issue is loss of purpose.”
5. “You have to be really aware of what is triggering you and how it’s triggering you and what you’re doing when you’re getting triggered, so you can take a proactive step outside of that trigger to do something different.”
6. “How many times do we go through life and we have those moments where we just wish we had somebody that we could talk to?”
7. “Exploring with curiosity and not have an outcome to what you’re exploring. Just go and just to learn.”
