Hi everyone. Welcome to another Meathead Hippie podcast. I am your host Emily Shrum and I am just going

through all the things and I know you guys are too because shit's hard, but in the best way. So what we're

going to talk about today is a little bit of the evolution of where I want to go and some of the

process in that because I want you guys to understand that you are always evolving and always changing and when you want to go and some of the process in that because I want you guys to understand that

you are always evolving and always changing and when you want to change, there needs to be

more people talking about that and that means I need to talk about the change that I'm experiencing

to make it more normalized, to make it more bearable, to make it less crazy. But also the exciting changes that we have with the things

going on and how I'm putting it all in one place. And of course, within that, there's a book club

involved. So we're going to talk about a couple of books today that I think you're going to

really respond well to. Thanks for coming back. I know this has been a while and I think you're

going to really enjoy this. I'm Emily Strom, the ultimate meathead hippie. Welcome to the show.

Okay, so without being too long-winded, which sometimes I can be when I am talking by myself,

I really have gone through a lot of changes the last three months, six months even,

maybe basically when I decided I was going to write a book.

It was kind of the start of changing and really this introspection that's so much different than just

thinking about it all the time when you write and when you speak it out loud there's really

powerful shifts and momentum that happens what i have found is just like the book just like everything

that i've created platform strength this, this podcast, the cooking show,

you know, this list of things that people are like, wow, look at that. All I have to say is it's

not a wow. It's just I'm listening to something. It feels good. It makes me happy. So I do it.

And all of the pieces fall into place. It's quite incredible. That is creation. That is co-creation.

That is I am available. I am open. I have an idea. This idea is in alignment with what I want to do.
