Hello, hello everybody. Welcome back. I hope with that you guys have had a great weekend, a great week. I just came back from New York. We had a whole week of recordings. I think in total, we recorded six episodes in three days. And that might not sound like a lot but it is it's it's

pretty daunting at times but it was really good and we had a lot of really great and exciting

people on this week especially on barely famous so i can't wait for you guys to hear those

episodes definitely tune in thank you so

much for tuning in and sticking with me during this change it's going to take some time to figure

things out here and with the process of switching this podcast over it's like I said it will take

some time and I appreciate y'all's patience I I will not be doing solo episodes every week. I love and appreciate that you guys have been enjoying these solos. It makes me feel so good and I will definitely continue to incorporate them. But it is pretty difficult to sit here and I'm talking to myself for an hour. Not going to lie. I am someone who could really talk to a wall,

but every single week, I don't have that much to say for an hour straight. I mean,

I often end up surprising myself. But with that being said, I will be having guests on here.

So let me know who you guys would like to hear from, whether it be in my personal life,

whether it be professionally

experts. I'm truly open to having anybody on here. I just love to have good conversations that

can move things forward. Today, I wanted to talk to you guys about your versions of your younger

selves. I'm not sure if you guys are on TikTok or social media,

if you've seen the trend meeting yourself for coffee, or rather meeting your younger self

for coffee. It's inspired by a poem by Janais Cecilia Poetry on TikTok and Instagram.

And I've got to say, the trend itself has me in shambles, but just writing my own

version of it, I did it really quickly.

And I kind of just viewed it, you know, it was a trend.

I'm just writing this.

But it was really, it was so much more cathartic for me than I anticipated it to be because I really do view myself as someone who has such a strong connection to her younger self.

I'm going to try to get through this without crying, but I probably won't be able to.
