Summary
I did it. I crossed something off of my to-do list that I've wanted to do for-ev-er (Sandlot style) — even though I knew it would be different than I had hoped. But who's to say that different means bad, right?

| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, Emily Abadi here coming to you live from the AG studio, you are listening |
| 0:25.0 | 5 Minute Friday from Hurtle. I feel as though there are some new listeners, new |
| 0:30.6 | heardlers in the house, so I want to just quickly explain what happens here on 5 Minute Friday. |
| 0:35.2 | On 5 Minute Friday, I just talked to you about something that happened in my week, |
| 0:37.9 | something that made me think a little bit, something that I have a takeaway to offer all of you |
| 0:43.0 | from, then I answer a listener question and that's it. It's a quick segment to kick off your weekend |
| 0:49.9 | or, you know, whenever you're listening to this, I digress. This week, I had DMs asking me to talk |
| 0:56.1 | about it, so I'm going to talk about it and that's my trip to 11 Madison Park. Now, if you don't |

| 1:49.9 | So I've talked about traveling before. I've gone out to eat plenty before, but I had like this |
| 1:54.9 | mental block on 11 Madison Park. Well, long story short, I booked 11 Madison Park and I booked |
| 2:03.7 | 11 Madison Park when I stopped and took a look at the last year. I was writing down some of my |
| 2:10.3 | wins from 2021. I was talking about them with a friend of mine. And I was like, dude, not saying |
| 2:17.9 | that you need to like spend gobs of money to celebrate yourself. There are plenty of ways that |
