This is episode number 525.

Stay tuned.

Welcome to Thinner Peace and Menopause and Beyond.

This is Dr. Deb Butler, Master life and weight coach, and as always,

your coach. If you're a woman and you're smart and you're successful and you've been struggling

with weight your whole life and now menopause is making it harder than ever and you are

ready to make this the last time you ever have to go on a

diet again, then this podcast is for you. Stay tuned. Well, hello, all my dear friends, all over the world. How are you today? I myself am getting ready

for a holiday weekend. I'm going to go down to the lake. We call it the lake. It's the lake of the

Ozarks. And my in-laws and my son and his wife, who is like my daughter and my three

grandchildren, we are all gathering together and we are having a little party. And these are like my

favorite things to do. As you know, being with my family and feeling the love is my favorite thing.

And, you know, it doesn't get past me, and I don't want it to get past you that spring is here.

And that there's a lot of interesting holidays around this time, too, regardless of your religion.

There seem to be holidays for all

religions, and they're all quite miraculous. And I find it interesting that it all happens in

spring. Spring is renewal. And what do we as human beings do to bring spring on? The answer to that,

my friend, is we do nothing because we have got nothing to do with it,

but every year around this time, spring springs up, and all the things that are supposed to

happen happen without any of us, pointing our fingers, making a list. It just happens. And these holidays

are kind of reminders because of all the miracles that happened during all of them.
