Quotes:
“You don't find your soulmate overnight. You work on your soulmate.” - Jamey Heath

"We want to advance society, advance humanity. We want to be better versions of ourselves so that our children or our grandchildren and future generations can be a little bit further along than we were." - Jamey Heath

“I think most people want to live in a world that we're advancing. I think the way we advance that is in monogamous, healthy relationships where we raise children to care about others, to have spiritual guidance…to be accountable to something greater than yourself.” - Jamey Heath

“I think that I have an unrealistic ideal of what a happy, healthy relationship is. And that means that you may leave relationships earlier than you should.” - Liz Plank

“Whatever's meant to happen, will happen. Whether it's the relationship or how the kids come into it, it's all just trusting that there's a path, and enjoying it, actually.” - Liz Plank

“I think any relationship is a success. Even a divorce is a success. You were in a successful relationship for this amount of years. How wonderful.” - Liz Plank
