Hi everyone I'm Brinay Brown and this is unlocking us.

So I'm recording this on Tuesday, November 3rd, election day.

And I spent the morning thinking about what I could possibly say to you are this amazing wholehearted community of listeners.

This is going to drop tonight or I guess tomorrow morning at 12.01 on November 4th and I have no idea what tonight or tomorrow will hold.

None of us do. No crystal ball, not even a great gut on how the election will turn out.

I'm just feeling a swirl of uncertainty, anxiety,

and definitely a lot of stubborn hope as well. I was texting with my daughter who's

21 and she is navigating the election she is navigating her senior year in college, which looks very

different than I think what she had planned or what she had hoped for, and just

going through a lot of kind of hard new grown-up stuff and the only thing I could offer her right now

are the words that I often whisper to myself when I feel wobbly and worried.

Those words are strong back,

soft front, Wild Heart.

These words breathe something into me that make me kind of straighten up and take a deep breath

and keep doing the next right thing. So I thought I'd

spend a few minutes with you talking about what strong back, soft front, and wild heart really means and hopefully

these words are helpful to you too.

Your last day of vacation and you found time for a deep tissue massage followed by a long

mud bath and a two hour nap because you're an American Express Platinum

Guard member and booked your stay at a fine hotel and resort through Amex Travel, which means a 4 p.m. Checkout.

And those relaxing vacation vibes can keep going at the airport in the Centurion lounge.

Just a splash.
