(19:35) Standout Quotes from Doctor TK: "As you evolve and you become more clear about what your interests are based on your life stage, those things can change. And as a professor, I always encourage students to get a breadth of experience before you get licensed." (12:26) "Every individual has to understand their limitations: Maybe in a program where somebody is going 40 hours working on their business to grow or scale it, and you may choose to give 10 hours to your business a week. But that's okay because that's the life stage that you're at right now." (15:08)"When we talk about the mastermind community in scaling your business, you can be like how you're here right now on different levels based on your goals. And the biggest thing is just to have the vision of where you want to end up."
