| 0:00.0 | Hey, everyone, Emily Abadi here. You are listening to Five Minute Friday from Hurtle. Wow. Firstly, I can't believe that this episode marks the end of season 15. It feels like this really, really breathed by. And also that this is the last episode |
| 0:41.6 | in year five of Hurdle. Hurdle's birthday is on December 31st. And come January 1st, we are |
| 0:49.3 | relaunching the show. You're going to see new cover art in your podcast feed, wherever you get your |
| 0:54.7 | podcasts. You're going to see a completely new look over on social. We are going to be completely |
| 1:00.4 | reinvigorating the Not So Secret Huddlers Facebook group. So if you're not in there just yet, |
| 1:06.8 | click on over to the show notes and join us over there. There's going to be a lot of fun things to come. |
| 1:13.3 | And yeah, I'm just, I'm a, I'm a really big fan of fresh starts and I am also of the mindset that |
| 1:20.4 | every single second is the opportunity to begin again. We don't necessarily need January 1 to be |
| 1:27.3 | a symbol for change. However, with that said, |

| 1:47.9 | hurdle. On that note, the holiday week, so many of you already listening to this, maybe you're |
| 1:53.9 | logged off for the next seven days. Maybe you're working at some point in the next seven days, |
| 1:58.5 | whatever the case may be, I want to tell you something that |
| 2:02.5 | I took a while to learn as an entrepreneur. And that is that it can wait. Maybe you're not |
| 2:11.4 | off of work and you are getting after it over the next week and you're trying to do business with people that |
| 2:18.8 | aren't around or perhaps you're kind of giving yourself a hard time about taking some time |
| 2:25.3 | to relax and recharge this time of year whatever your situation is whatever you're stressing |
| 2:32.4 | about right now it can can wait. And regardless of what your family |
| 2:39.1 | situation is, you deserve to dial it back a little bit and know that the urgency that maybe |
| 2:48.2 | you feel at other points in time, you don't need to let that infiltrate |
| 2:53.6 | into your mindset right this moment. In our go, go, go culture, the hustle, the comparison, |
