| 0:00.0 | Hey, my friends, welcome back to Vibibrate Happy Women. I am Dr. Jen Friday, your host. I'm so glad that you're here, that you're listening, and that we can celebrate this, the last day of 2018, together. If you're listening after the fact, well, it's the last day of 2018, December 31st. And that means tonight is New Year's Eve. |
| 0:23.5 | How are you going to celebrate? Are you excited to see 2018 go or are you little sad? Was it a really |
| 0:29.7 | good year for you? You know, I consider 2018 my hardest and my best year. Beautiful, right? |
| 0:39.7 | I've been thinking lately a lot about cracks. You know, there's a Leonard Cohen quote about those cracks in our soul allow the light in. |
| 0:46.4 | And I'm finding that to be really true. As you know, I struggled in the past year with my |
| 0:51.4 | teens, both of them, the two oldest, the 15 and 17 year olds. |
| 0:56.1 | And it was a rough year and there were times I just hurt so much. But there were also moments |
| 1:02.5 | where I learned, hey, I'm hurting, but I'm tired of hurting and I'm going to choose happiness |
| 1:07.2 | no matter what. I feel like I got past something that I'll never go back, |
| 1:13.8 | or at least not to the level I did before, where I felt like a victim of other people. |
| 1:18.9 | I felt like a victim of my teens. Why me? Why do I have these hard kids? You know, we all do it. |
| 1:24.8 | We've all done it. But I realize even if those pity party moments come, |
| 1:29.1 | I can make them shorter and shorter and shorter. That was why 2018 was amazing. So I want to challenge |
| 1:35.8 | you to think about your 2018. Was it hard? What was hard? And what did you learn from those hard |
| 1:41.5 | things? And as you think about 2019, what do you want to focus on? |
| 1:49.1 | And that's what this happy bit is about today. We're talking about focusing on one feeling you would |
| 1:56.8 | like to have in 2019. So I've thought a lot about this. There are so many feelings I love, |
| 2:02.6 | so many values and priorities that are important to me. Of course, I think about spirituality, |
| 2:07.8 | my family, my career, all of you, I love all of you so much, my health, so many things. |
| 2:14.8 | But how do I know which one should be that primary focus? And you know what I decided? |
| 2:20.6 | My word for 2019 is health. There. I'm saying it publicly. Why health? You know, in the past, I tried to put |
| 2:29.8 | my faith at the top because, you know, God should be first, right? Or the universe or whatever you talk |
