Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

This lesson that I'm about to share with you might spare you in ways that you never realized,

that you simply never thought were possible, because no one teaches us so many of these life skills and tools

that can really conserve our energy, keep our focus, and allow us to enjoy fully our own life without

putting our attention and our emotions like without directing them towards another person and I'd like to

illustrate it with a story about I wasn't even barely a teenager. This is something that happened at one of the

schools that I went to.

And it was as simple and as old as time

as two girls liking one boy.

It often happens in all sorts of young person settings, right, schools, colleges, etc.

But I must have been 11 or 12. I was living in Kent in England.

And I had this, dare I say, enemy. I know I'm sounding like the Chinderswinder right now.

For those of you who've watched the Netflix show, he speaks often about his enemies.

But there was one girl at my school who was kind of I guess you would say my rival

her name was Becky and we both had this kind of you know we both fancied the same boy. And I don't even know how it happened that

her and I became kind of a bit frosty towards each other, but there was an energy there

that just, it just simply wasn't good, right? I think that she would probably give me dirty looks,

I'd do it back. We would have our own little kind of friendship groups, but it was quite clear that

like Susie and Becky were friends. And you know, as it goes with kids and boys and schools and so forth the usual

nonsense nothing serious but I remember that this girl Becky consumed a lot of my thinking.

I think her about her at the weekend, even when I was dressing for school, I'd think,

oh, you know, I want to look better than Becky.
