0:00.0 | Hello, hello everybody. I'm Lexi Lombard, your host of the Alexi |
0:08.9 | podcast. Thanks for tuning in. If you listen to the last week's |
0:11.8 | episode, I had just come back from a weekend trip. in Los Angeles which has been great because I spent this week hanging out with some of them |
0:23.2 | just expanding my circle which makes this place that I live in feel that much more like a |
0:28.6 | home I always want to encourage people to say yes saying yes is so natural to me. One of my favorite |
0:34.3 | things in this life is to have a new experience, to meet a new person, to see if |
0:39.3 | someplace that I've never seen. I'll do anything for a new experience. It's truthfully what one of my favorite aspects of this life is. |

1:27.7 | But something that I have trouble with is I'll be embarrassed or shy to ask for what I want. |
1:32.3 | I've just been a lucky person that is asked to go, |
1:36.4 | come on this trip with me, be my plus one to this show, why don't we go on this trip together. |
1:42.0 | I have this brand that wants to work with you. |
1:44.6 | There's a marathon coming up. Do you want to join? My friend and I are going climbing. Why don't you come with |
