Hey, what's going on guys? Welcome back to the Jeremy Scott Fins podcast,

a radio show coming to you on this Thursday with an episode title, Just Be Yourself,

which I believe that is all we can really be at the end of the day. Even though oftentimes

at a young age we are taught the opposite of this, we are sometimes, you know, a square peg and people are trying to put us in a round hole and we're, you know, taught to sit down and be quiet and walk in a single file line and just basically, you know, do as Billy does and do as Sarah does, even though we're not Billy or Sarah, for that matter.

And I've talked about this in a roundabout way in a handful of other podcasts and social media

posts.

And yesterday we're joking here in the offices.

I'm going through kind of our list of all the things we've talked about and done.

I feel like I've said the same thing like 8,000 times.

And I mean that about almost everything we speak about here.

And people will joke. You know say, you know, when you go public speak or when you go talk to people or groups, do you get nervous anymore? I'm like, I don't get nervous at all. And not that I don't care about it, because typically, you know, when you are nervous for things, it shows like there's some level of importance to you. And not that it isn't important, but I'm like, I don't talk about shit I don't know about.

I literally only talk about the five or six things I know about in life and I punt everything else.

And so we've never said this directly in this manner away.

We did post it on Instagram yesterday.

And I'm joking with Monica here, who's, you know, my GM in the house. And she has, you know, work next to me or across from me or next to me for the better part of the last five or six years now. And I'm like, have I done this before in a podcast? And then she just looks at me, she's like, I don't listen to all your podcasts. I'm like, well, thank God she doesn't. She has to hear me ramble in here in the office all day. But we've never tackled this in this way. And I think for a lot of you listening, this is going to be important. It's something that you can take with you. If you've been carrying shit from a young age, maybe it's your mom or dad, put it on new teachers, put it on new friends, or you're even today, as you're 30, 40, 50, 6th, you're listening to this and you're

trying to, you know, conform to things that really aren't, you know, in your wheelhouse and aren't going to benefit your life.

And so the title today, just be yourself.

And the quote I want to share, which I posted on Instagram yesterday, was, you can make millions of dollars, have the greatest job, the most amazing spouse, the most loving family, but if you can't truly be yourself, you'll be miserable inside because it was all built on a fake you, end quote.

And I believe that to be 100% true. I wouldn't write it, I wouldn't share it,

I wouldn't preach on it, if you will, if it wasn't near and dear to me. And I'll get a couple

comments on IG from that and people will post, oh, a million dollars, but having to be fake would be

cool.
