| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Black Girl Burnout podcast. Kelly here. And today I want to talk about how to fall in love with being alive. This is a long-a-th theme we've had all week about finding joy in the now, being able to go beyond |
| 0:24.9 | aesthetics and develop inner beauty and inner joy and happiness. And I wanted to close out the |
| 0:31.6 | week by giving more practical and grounded tools on how to actually put these concepts in action. I know many of you are thinking, have |
| 0:40.8 | you looked at the world, have you turned on the news, have you just set five seconds in my life? |
| 0:46.8 | It is really hard to fall in love with being alive when all these things are happening. |
| 0:53.1 | And trust me, I understand that very well. As someone I've |
| 0:58.3 | told you before, when I talked about the episodes about opting out of fighting and opting |
| 1:02.9 | into surrender, which again, those episodes are really important and full of a lot of good |
| 1:07.7 | information. You want to check them out. Please give them a listen if you |
| 1:12.0 | haven't and feel free to re-listen to them again. I talk about what has been going on in my life |

| 1:34.6 | New Year, new me, I hope this is not the new me permanently. |
| 1:39.1 | I hope there's going to be more things to come, and I know there will be. |
| 1:46.0 | And the part of the reason I can then say and write episodes like fall in love with being alive is despite the chaos and the pain |
| 1:53.7 | and the anxiety and the stress that I am having in multiple areas of my life, I still am in love with my life. More days than not, and I will be |
| 2:05.9 | honest, it's not every day I wake up with a song in my heart and feeling like, and I have the |
| 2:10.7 | best life ever. But more days than not, I do wake up in a space of gratitude and I am grateful for the life that I have |
| 2:21.3 | and I see the potential goodness that is coming my way. And instead of seeing it as I cannot have a |
| 2:29.0 | moment of uninterrupted joy, something I recently told my therapist, It feels like all my joy is being tainted. |
| 2:36.3 | Instead, I can most days reframe that to, even in my darkest moments, there are always these |
