And sometimes we cross paths like if the other is overwhelmed we can jump and say "Hey what do you need me to help with? How can I assist you?" and vice versa. And that's how we stay focused, and we stay aligned and we stay on the same page. You don't have to know everything but at least you got to know how, in case of absence we have an idea what to do." - Takia   "Our vision is always aligned. Even if we have different visions, we will talk about it. In that way, we stay aligned because we need each other's full force." - Maddy Jean   "I wasn't scared of what people thought of me. I was putting my work out there even though it was not what I thought was great. And I knew in order for me to make money I had to put my face out there, I had to get out there." - Maddy Jean   "So many of us when we're taking our new journey and we try new things in life and the fear that sets in. If you can accept the fact that fear is okay to have but be able to overcome it, you can do anything." - Takia
