This is dedicated to anyone that’s been knocked down, but not out. The ones that fell to their knees, but rose back up. The ones that scratched and clawed, but never let go. The ones willing to admit their faults, move past their failures and improve...every...single...day. I hope these conversations encourage you to think critically, make you laugh hysterically, inspire you profoundly and remind you to practice gratitude...daily. My name is Iman Huschmand. Welcome to the conversation. Welcome to AWESOME People.

QUOTES:
“I’m still in the process of losing and finding myself every single day.” [8:58]
“It sounds so cliche, but that ‘time heals all’ thing is super real, but there just needs to be something found that’s productive with that time. You can’t just sit around and wait for the clock to tick.” [24:00]
“Thats just something that’s an internal thing; theres a ‘knowing’ in it. Whether you’re painting something or making a video, there’s a knowing ‘alright, this is the moment, right now, I need to capture this and let go.’” [37:01]
“Trust your own intuition. Trust that inner feeling that you have because that feeling will guide you. If you’re not feeling something don’t do it, it’s not for you. If you’re feeling it, jump in.” [37:45]
“This is only temporary.” [48:50]
