0:00.0 | Hey. All right, you guys, can I be totally honest? It's 218 on a Thursday and I'm about to post this |
0:06.7 | episode right after I finish it because it's how I live. My week has been crazy. How is yours? How are you |
0:15.9 | feeling? Have you done a self-check-in lately? Let's take a minute. Check in with yourself. I'll tell you what, |
0:24.7 | this week has been interesting. We had a mouth injury with Corey earlier this week. Oh, and if you know me |
0:30.6 | in real life. And I like to think we're all friends. We just haven't met yet. But if you know me in |
0:35.3 | real life, I called my girlfriend hysterical, you know I can't do |
0:38.2 | the mouth. Two things that I am not equipped for that people assume all moms just like |
0:44.3 | roll with. Injuries and snot. Oh my gosh, you guys, I cannot stand snot. I would rather clean up |
0:51.6 | barf. I would rather clean up like the most disgusting |
0:56.7 | diaper in the entire world than deal with snot. I just can't. It is my Achilles Hill, |

1:24.9 | have an ebb and flow to it. Your day does not have to be half |
1:29.7 | glass half empty, glass half full. It can be refillable. You can start negatively and in |
1:35.1 | positively. You can start positively and in negatively. The human condition is actually the fact |
1:41.3 | that we have emotions that ebb and flow throughout the day and somehow we've |
1:45.7 | bought into this really distorted lie that you either have a good day or a bad day. |
1:52.4 | No. Now, yeah, you do have bad days sometimes. That doesn't mean it didn't start out good. It doesn't |
1:57.2 | wash away all the things that you've done that are good. And so I just want to encourage you today as you check in with yourself, which you need to do. |
2:05.0 | And if no one has done that for you, take this time. |
2:08.0 | I don't know what you're doing right now. |
2:09.3 | I love to picture what y'all are doing. |
