We can do hard things pod squad we have together twice a week sometimes three times made it through this year you all we did that skin of our

two and the hair of our chinny chin chin's which are many and of varied colors like

lethra they don't tell you that shit yeah all you have to do is go into the car or into a hotel room

and you will see yours we are ending this year which we're so grateful to have done with you

and we're going to go back to the beginning for a few minutes because that's kind of fun to do

and think about when we started this pod which some of you don't know I started doing this pod

by myself okay I want you to imagine me doing this pod by myself and that is what it was like

it was terrible it was bad it was bad it was bad I kept sending files and the team kept going

well you would lock yourself in the closet and you would just talk by yourself I just talked like

what's going on in my head and then I kept thinking I think the thing about podcasts is that

they're conversations yeah we were new I think that's what happens so then I said sister can

you please join me yeah do you remember that no thank you right thank you very much how did we

convince you like how did that end up happening how well you pulled the big boss card and you're

like this is what's happening right and I said okay right I needed help I needed someone to talk

to besides the different voices in my head yeah and then which doesn't technically count as a

conversation exactly and then one day we invited Abby on to the pod as a guest as a guest just a

guest and sudden feelings weren't hurt my feelings weren't hurt I swear and suddenly it was as it

was like what happened when you entered our family it was like oh you weren't added to our family

you were missing from our family before and that is how it felt that day on the pod because now we

know that when it was just me speaking we had a disembodied ghost spirit talking to itself

then sister was added and we suddenly had a soul and a brain so that was good but then when you

got here we had all three things mine we had mine body and spirit and in you we got all the joy
