===============================

Key Lessons:
1) Do the work with the love of people in the forefront. When you see the people in the work, the titles won’t matter but what will matter is the lives we impact.
2) When we're put in uncomfortable situations it may allow us to see things differently and in ways that will help us grow.
3) When you enter the VA Enterprise, don’t leave if you feel you have limits. Instead, chart your path and look for the people who will support you as you gain more resources to push past those limits.
