All-In commitment gives you the confidence and freedom to do something bigger. Our partnership wisdom shows that when you make a commitment in a real way, it will set you free. Being All-In with your partners and finding freedom through commitment is not easy work–in fact, it is counterintuitive as we often think we must sacrifice our freedom when we commit to another. Yet our partners continue to find their wings when given the deep support, strength, and space within their relationships to soar to the best version of themselves.

“That’s the essence of it, really be there. Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh always says the best present you can give to your partner is just to be there. Just so simple.”

“If you can get over the fear of the leap of loving before being loved, I think that’s the start of it all. And that goes for friendships, and it goes for business partnerships. And it goes for people you have only recently met. It’s, are you okay showing up as the most loving version of yourself with the thought there may be no return? But, when you do it, it always returns.”

“The thing I most value is I have this certain North Star that I know I can come back to that just lays out: this is reality — this is truth. That is a touchstone that I can go to at any point, and Lindsay just gives that to me, every day.”
