10:42 – Q: What is the book title all about? A: Truth Warriors is a concept that I put together because it balances the idea of truth and seeking out information with warriors which is about strength. It's that balance of those two factors and that idea of truth is actually for me, both fluid and personal, which means it can change, and our beliefs can and should change and have changed in history, and so we need to recognize that will still be the case. And warriors, of course, is very much about having the strength to listen and having the strength to speak up, and finding the right time to do either one of those things. And it's all about finding that balance between them.
Key Takeaways:
“You're not going to get to a strategy, you're not going to be able to make the right choices in your life if you don't get really clear on what gives you energy and feel your passion.” – Christi Scarrow
“We need to have this positive tension between us for change. We need to respect our diverse opinions and we need to feel confident in our voice.” – Christi Scarrow
“If you can start with self-awareness and what you want to achieve, find others that can offer the opposite of that. Find ways in which you can move the opposite of that because that's how we're going to grow. It’s knowing when we need to be more rational or more intuitive or more averse or more assertive in the way we come across.” – Christi Scarrow
