Quotes by Alyson Gerber  (?)

“I guess change is pretty scary. Even if it's the good kind.”
Alyson Gerber, Braced

“I guess when you don't have another choice, you have to make things happen for yourself, or they won't.”
Alyson Gerber, Braced

“The best you can do is treat them how you want them to treat you, stand up for yourself, and then don’t waste your energy worrying what they think. I know that’s especially hard right now when you can’t avoid them, but it’s good practice. There will be Tamars and Sages for the rest of your life.”
Alyson Gerber, Taking Up Space
