Quotes from the episode
I saw people being asked to, like, completely revamp their entire course and learn how to online, but nothing was removed from their plate.
-Karen Costa
So the first question I want folks to ask themselves is what are my qualifications in this role.
-Karen Costa
Just because you are qualified to do it does not mean that it is yours.
-Karen Costa
I didn’t know what boundaries were until I was about 35 years old, and it’s taken me about 7 years of really challenging interpersonal work to understand what boundaries are and to feel confident in setting boundaries for myself.
-Karen Costa
