0:00.0	All right, everyone, welcome to today's episode. This is episode 190 and the topic of today's
0:07.3	episode is the importance of showing up for others. So this is huge because a lot about what I
0:14.2	talk about in my podcast in general in the last 190 episodes, most of the episodes revolve around your relationship
0:24.0	with yourself and how you need to prioritize yourself, put yourself first, all of the above.
0:30.2	And that is absolutely true. Obviously, I still stand by that. I stand by everything I've spoken
0:34.4	about thus far. However, I really wanted to cover the importance of
0:38.9	showing up for other people because, and I have mentioned this many times, I haven't just brushed over it,

1:24.4	going to be a really good episode because you're going to realize that there is a lot that you can be doing to show up for other people.
1:30.8	And you're also going to realize that even if you want to look at it from a selfish perspective,
1:35.0	showing up for other people is going to impact your life incredibly.
1:39.8	You gain so much by doing something for somebody else.
1:43.1	So it's just a two-way street here. It is
1:46.0	something that you can implement today. It is something that you should be implementing every
1:50.4	single day and it could actually transform your life because it can transform your sense of
1:55.6	purpose and your overall mood and how you feel about yourself. Okay, before we get into that, I am going to
