This is about you. This is about what you are willing to…
““This is about you. This is about what you are willing to bring to this room. It's not enough to show up once a week and think that's going to make a difference. That's like someone thinking they are going to get in shape just by standing in the lobby of a gym. Therapy’s like exercise, Bridget. You have to want results. You have to work hard to get to those results. It isn't easy, it isn't fun, but in the end, most people feel a hell of a lot better.””
