How does Jesse live through love? “A life of love is a life of really living in the embodiment of who we are and who we're on this earth to be, and living that not just because it feels good, not just because it is our purpose and who we are, but because living who we are, living a life of love, is the greatest service to the world.”
“Every human being on this planet has an enormous reservoir of power within themselves, but I would say that most of us are accessing just a tiny fraction of that available inner power source." - Jesse Israel
