Hello, good morning and welcome back to Morning,

Guys, I'm so excited to be back.

I'm your host, Lan.

I just realized I didn't introduce myself, but hi.

Hi, I'm Lan.

It's been a hot minute.

I didn't have time to fit in a podcast recording the previous week. I was busy

doing another certification for Pilates to teach at a new studio here in Toronto, which I'm so

excited about. I will announce it more officially once I'm on the schedule, but I'm doing my first community class tomorrow,

and then my second one will be on Friday, so I'm so excited. I'm definitely a bit nervous,

definitely leaning into that discomfort and challenging myself here, even though I've been teaching at LSDR for two months,

a little over two months now. It's definitely a very different experience at LSDR. I teach into

headphones, so I don't have to speak as loud. It's almost like I'm recording on the podcast,

but at this new studio, it's a traditional setup with a mic and a speaker system. So I have to

project so much more in order for the class to hear what I'm saying. And I am quite soft-spoken,

so that has definitely been a learning curve, but I'm so excited excited and I'm really excited today for our episode.

Our Ask Land columns, our advice columns are always some of my favorite episodes to record for

you guys. Today is very kind of career heavy, mindsets, life focused. I feel like normally they are more dating-focused,

and I kind of wanted to switch it up, so I picked questions that you guys have asked

that kind of lean more towards life, career, and just like mindsets and stuff like that.

But if you ever want to participate and send in a question, I always have a link

to my Asklan Google form. It's all anonymous. Guys, I'm so good at saying that word now. I still,
