5:13: “And then at some point, I realized that you can do it, but can you do it well, and is this where you need to spend your time? And that’s when I thought I needed brilliant people to help me, and I found you.”

7:44: Sarah explains that trust through consistency is a significant factor when dealing with sensitivity around immense trauma. Another differentiator is the community, a resource for employees within an organization.
