So the more regulated you are, the more regulated everybody around you becomes.” — Sarah Baldwin [0:21:13] “It is our thriving that allows others to thrive.” — Sarah Baldwin [0:39:05] “Every single person, I believe, is a leader in some particular way. – And the more you regulate your nervous system and reparent your parts, the more you lead from your wholeness, the more you help the world heal, and the more, most importantly, you enjoy the process.” — Sarah Baldwin [0:47:42]
