"...I have constant anxiety... I mean I don't think it's at a high level or one that can be categorized as a psychological dysfunction or anything... "

"I am obviously sooo far from alone in having these feelings of anxiety so what's the point of this podcast except to say things that resonate with people..."

"The interesting thing is, if I had an understanding of it at 16, 20, or 25, I would've been able to do something about it in a different way..."

"And I say 'here's the thing: when I'm with one person, I am really happy because I can talk to one person, but when I'm in a group, I just can't do it.'"

"All I want to do is get heavy, deep and real within two minutes of meeting people..."

"Never seen it before: the minute he put his legs into their sockets, his whole body started quaking..."

"You know, if you go to physical therapy, they always watch you walk..."
