Hey guys, welcome back to Thick and Thin with me Katie Biladi and I so desperately

wish there was someone around to see me right now because I it just looks really funny the scene right now with me sitting on my floor like just trying to stay cool while I'm recording this episode because it is so hot in New York

this weekend slash I guess it's Monday now I like can't even keep track of the days I'm

recording this on a Monday but this past weekend it was just totally unbearable in terms of heat and many of

you guys know I'm quarantining right now, self-quarantining after my trip to California,

so I've been in my apartment and I guess I just didn't spend that much time in here last summer because I was just, you know, jetting all over the place. I was like, you know, just all over the place basically.

Anywhere that wasn't, you know, in the hot city in my apartment, like I was even

out and about, just like feeling the breeze and being in here, I did not realize just how bad. the the trying to stay cool. I'm wearing literally the skimpiest little nightgown that I have and I'm drinking ice water out of a coffee mug because I haven't done dishes in a little bit. So that is the scene. I am here to chat about some good stuff with you guys today.

I have a lot of little things that I've been jotting down in the note section of my phone

recently and you know a lot of times I jot down little

thoughts here and there little just you know stream of consciousness thoughts that

I have while I'm crossing the street or picking up my laundries in the shower just really various places and a lot of them never really make it to the pod because I always have something that kind of overpower is it or a story that I want to share or an issue that's really important or a story that I want to share or an issue that's

really important or something and so a lot of them get lost but today I have given them

the floor yeah that is the deal. Although there is like beads of sweat

forming on my forehead and I'm developing a sweat mustache, I am still so

thrilled to be sharing this all with you guys today.

So yeah, okay, let's get into it.

I guess I do want to start out with just kind of my frame of mind

right now, how I'm feeling, how things are going for me. I actually did attempt recording this podcast yesterday

and full transparency it was a train wreck. I just

me, I'm emotional recording it and I realized after kind of listening to it again,

it really was just me complaining.
