Welcome back to the Fun and Games podcast.

How is everybody this beautiful Wednesday?

I was able to hit the gym today. It is such a luxury to be able to say that

and to go to the gym. I feel like before last year, every once in a while I'd be like,

oh, it's such a drag going to the gym and I'd complain or I'd not want to go. I'd make excuses

on certain days. And now that it has been such a long break from the

gym, I am always so eager to go. I still have a little bit of gym anxiety, of course, but I am like,

this is such a privilege. This is such a luxury. Like, we are going and we are getting a workout in

regardless. And it has been so good for my mental

health like I can already tell in just the past two days of going to the gym that I feel so much

better it's going to take a lot more consistency for me to be able to see full results obviously

like physically but mentally I can already tell

I'm on the up and up again and it makes me so happy. It's been so fun trying new pre-workout.

It's been fun getting into new gym fit. And even though it was hard taking such a long break,

I feel like coming back full swing has been awesome. Like sometimes you need to take a step

back in order to really love and appreciate what you have. And I feel like having an entire year,

obviously that's not ideal for taking a break, but I have so much energy and focus and momentum.

And I'm so excited for whatever is going to come

my way this year. So if you have had to take a little bit of a break, see it in a positive

that you are fully charged and ready to get back into it. And sometimes it can be a good thing
