| 0:00.0 | Hello, hello. Welcome back to another episode of the Good Day podcast. I'm your host, Sarah Vandy. I realized the other day, I haven't been, |
| 0:22.1 | I haven't been introducing myself. I don't think I've said my name to introduce myself one time |
| 0:28.0 | in the short month and a half I've been doing this, but can you believe it's been a month and a half? |
| 0:34.4 | Like, the weeks are just flying by. It's kind of crazy how fast it's going. But it's been so much fun. I just love having the space to share my heart with you guys and chat and not feel rushed because, like I said, when I started this, I always feel rushed on Instagram. Like, I don't, I don't know. I don't ever want to take too much time up over there and fill up a bunch of little bubbles because, you know, let's be honest, who has time to sit and watch a zillion different little story bubbles and listen to someone ramble on? I mean, I don't. I definitely don't. So, yeah, it's just fun to have this space to be able to chat with you guys. But we are back from Texas. |
| 1:12.6 | If you listened to last week's episode, I shared that we were on a little spring break getaway |
| 1:18.2 | in Texas. |
| 1:19.5 | We were actually outside of Austin, and I've never really spent any time in that area. |
| 1:24.6 | So it was fun to just, you know, be in a new place and explore and of course enjoy |
| 1:29.6 | the warm weather. It was so nice. It was so nice. And it just felt so good for my soul to have some |
| 1:37.2 | warmth and sunshine. It's just been particularly cold and gloomy here the last several weeks. |
| 1:45.3 | Like the first half of winter, this is weeks. Like the first half of winter, |
| 1:50.8 | this is typical Colorado. The first half of winter for us, at least where we are in Colorado, wasn't like too bad. But then the last like month and a half, two months have just been, |
| 1:57.3 | haven't been very much fun. And as I record this right right now it is so cold and gloomy and really really |
| 2:03.9 | windy out um and i'm hoping you can't hear the wind blow because it's blowing so strong right now |
| 2:10.5 | that it's like rattling like some of the house and like windows you know how that can happen so |
| 2:16.3 | i really hope you can't hear that |
| 2:17.8 | in the background. But yeah, it was tough to come back from the warm, sunny, nice weather to |
| 2:24.5 | cold temperatures here in Colorado. But I think our second half of the week here and our weekend |
| 2:29.9 | is supposed to warm up. So looking forward to that. But you guys, today I want to chat about |
| 2:33.6 | something that's |
| 2:34.5 | been a lot, like, on my mind and on my heart a lot lately. And that is comparison. And essentially, |
| 2:41.5 | why measuring up doesn't matter. So, you know, we in the world that we live in today, we're the |
