• \u201cAltruism is acting on feelings of compassion for others, so it\u2019s not just saying like \u2018Man, I feel for you. I\u2019ll be praying for you.\u2019 It\u2019s literally acting on that. It\u2019s actions that support the wellbeing of others.\u201d -Dr. Amber Selking\xa0 [03:19]
• \u201cWhen you\u2019re going through something like that, to have people that have been where you\u2019ve been and but years ahead, and willing to jump back with you and lock arms and help you figure out how to tackle it, it was incredibly meaningful.\u201d -Dr. Amber Selking\xa0 [04:58]
• \u201cNot everybody\u2019s in a position to be altruistic all the time in every different situation or scenario. But the thing is if you are and you take that one extra step of like taking action for people, it\u2019s powerful in how people can show up.\u201d -Dr. Amber Selking\xa0 [05:21]
• \u201cTaking actions that support the well-being of other people is good for us as humans, and then it\u2019s good for the communities where we live, work and play.\u201d -Dr. Amber Selking\xa0 [10:01]
