it really requires a lot of self-reflection and a lot of self-awareness to know, like, well,

what do I really want for myself? In five years, how does the answer to that question now

Hey, everybody. Emily, a body here. You are listening to another installment of Hurtle Moment

from Hurtle. A wellness focus podcast where I chat with everyone from your favorite

athletes to top experts and industry CEOs about their highest highs, toughest moments, and everything

in between. We all go through Hurtle's life, and my goal through these discussions is to

when you do feel stuck, when you do feel like it's just way too much to handle, and why acknowledging

that feeling can be the first step to getting to where you actually want to go. We also talk about

how feelings can play a really big part in this, and the importance of embracing life as it happens,

being honest with yourself about where you're at currently, and ultimately, again, where you want

to go. Now of course, gotta do a little shout out. This episode is actually coming out on Liz's

birthday, so happy birthday to Liz, her and I fellow Gemini's, and a little bit of housekeeping
