Hey guys, this is my leak and this is the podcast. I am excited to be back and

talk to you this week. Earlier this week I posted on my threads I said very simply the thought came to me while I was in the gym I said I

Splurge on my mental health. This piece is practiced and real. And that got my mind

going for a podcast today because for so long I have always wanted to feel better on the inside versus you know

all of the things that I felt like I was doing to look well, you know, looking good on the inside.

And I don't know if we want to just kick this thing off in the deep end, but a thought that I had

before I got started was remembering how important my appearance was to my mother as a kid and not just my appearance, but her appearance mattered so much to her and she'd get up like 3 o'clock in the morning to ensure

She had enough time to get through her beauty routine. Coffee first and then hair, makeup, clothes, you know, touching up her nails. I just remember watching my mom spend all this time on the physical appearance, but I just kept thinking like we are not well, you know?

So often even as a young kid I felt like we are dressing up our problems. We looked good,

but we for sure weren't feeling well mentally. And so the journey that I've had to peace has been a long one and I have splurged my money I have splurged my time on this practice

and maybe you can't meditate on a mountaintop maybe you can't meditate on a mountaintop.

Maybe you can't go to a wellness retreat.

Peace is still available to you.

And today, I wanted to share some of the practices that came up for me as I thought about that very simple post.

You know, when I said my piece is practiced.

What does that mean and how do I do it? And so today I have a couple of practices. There are many that I do but I have a couple that I wanted to share with you.

And so the number one practice that I have in my notes today is managing my desire to react to a statement or an action.

The F word in travel.

With an H-S-B-C global money account, you can drop f-f- That means no fis here. Fondra.

No fis here. Howdy and definitely no fis here.

Pay no Hs B.C. fees overseas with a global money account.

HsB.
