Summary

This week, we are NOT talking about activity. This is the opposite of us talking about activity, actually. For #HURDLEMOMENT, I'm revealing the biggest lessons I've learned being single (and dating) in my thirties. This comes on the heels of me getting a ton of messages this week from many of you about feeling like you're doing something "wrong" if you're not locked into a relationship. You are not! You are excellent! I don't get this personal on the show often, but I appreciate you for making space for us to have these conversations in an open, honest way.

0:00.0	you can't just continually look for this thing for yourself. Instead, you need to spend this time
0:08.2	investing in you, following the things that you desire that might not have anything to do
0:15.4	with romance, but rather just you being your best self because you are great as you are.
0:37.1	Hey, hurdlers. Emily Abadi here, bringing you another installment of Hurtle moment from Hurtle.
0:44.6	Y'all, it has been a day. Like the most dayiest of days days. Oh my goodness.
0:55.5	I spent six hours almost in line waiting to vote early today.
1:00.0	And as you can probably imagine, there are a lot of emotions that go through your mind when you're waiting for six hours and also your phone dies and you are just like
1:14.4	what is going on. I'm definitely going to talk about this on five minute Friday this week. So
1:20.8	stay tuned for that. In the meantime, I'm bringing a juicy episode to the feed today, deviating from a lot of the running content that's been going on on Hurtle Moment Wednesdays.
1:34.6	Today, I am sharing with you lessons that I have learned from being single and maybe more specifically from dating in my 30s. It's something that I get a lot of
1:47.2	messages about and it feels really relevant right now because this week in particular, a lot of
1:54.2	you have reached out over Instagram and if you don't follow Hurtle on Instagram, it's at Hurtle
1:58.8	podcast. I am also over at Emily Abadi. But many of you
2:03.5	have reached out recently to talk to me about being single and your frustrations that go hand
2:11.4	in hand with being single and feeling like you're doing something wrong because you're single
2:16.2	and being made to feel like you're doing something wrong because you're single. And a few highlights. First of all, you are not
2:23.1	doing anything wrong because you happen to be single. You cannot put your value in the hands of
2:30.0	others, whether that is a potential partner or your friends or your family, because you're not
2:35.4	attached. That's just not fair. And also, of note on that before we end to the meat of things,
2:42.1	I also do want to say that there's some really awesome opportunity that comes with embracing
2:48.5	your singleness, with embracing being alone.
2:52.4	And I've chatted about that here on the show before.
