One of her many favourite quotes is this one from Carl Rogers:
“The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination”.
Rogers’ view was that the good life is not an outcome to be achieved but rather a process that we have to be constantly engaged with to be continually moving towards.
