Summary
The mile itself was cool. Heck, it was effin' awesome. But one of the biggest highlights for me last week was the immense amount of love I felt from friends, family, and this community combined. In today's installment of 5-MINUTE FRIDAY, I'm talking about how I've learned to implement gratitude and leave behind expectation (tough!), and how this practice has made a dramatic impact on how I feel in my day-to-day.

| 0:00.0 | The first five-minute Friday of a new season of Hurtle. Hey, everyone, Emily Abadi, |
| 0:25.6 | popping in here with this week's installment. If you are new to Hurtle, welcome. If you are only new |
| 0:33.6 | to Five-Minute Friday, welcome. I am happy to have your ears for the time being. So we are all |
| 0:41.3 | on the same page. Five minute Friday. I offer up a story from my week, a little thought prompt to |
| 0:47.8 | send you into the weekend. New to Five Minute Friday, I'm now going to be answering one listener |
| 0:54.1 | question a week here. So if you've |
| 0:56.1 | got something that's on your mind that you want to know, feel free to shoot me those over DM over |

| 2:02.4 | with the mile itself, but actually about how over the top loved and appreciated I felt leading |
| 2:10.5 | up to it and during it and after it. On a week by week basis here with hurdle, I am constantly giving as much as possible as I can to this community. |
| 2:22.3 | It means the world to me. And that's just kind of who I am. It definitely, definitely carries over to my, |
