Hello and welcome to the Chris Terrell podcast.

I am Chris Terrell.

Sorry, I've missed you all.

I have missed you all, actually.

I have both had to slow down my posting on TikTok as well as

ended up not being able to get to a podcast. The, you know, the downside of a podcast is you can't really multitask when you do that. Like, you're either doing that or you're doing nothing else or and you're doing nothing else. That's it.

to realize is we as people, like to just do things the way we've always done it. In my day job, I'm an agent

of change. I always am introducing new things and that's just part of my strength. It's one of the

things that I do. And in that, I have realized that a lot of people don't like changing. They might

say they want to. They might even be kind of willing to for a little bit, but the reality is they

don't want to. Most people want to be comfortable. I mean, who can fault anybody for that? Being comfortable is
