Hey everybody. Welcome back to the muscle intelligence podcast. I'm your host, Ben Pocolsky. Today we have another episode of the Q&A format with Ashley Van Houten. Ash, what's up?

Not much. Happy to still be here. We're a couple. We're a couple in. I'm glad that I still have a co-hosting job.

I think you're doing amazing. Thank you. I appreciate it. I'm trying my best. I think you're carrying me along really, really well. I'm trying. You're heavy. You're still heavy, but I'm trying. But you're strong.

Ash, that's why we love you. I'm working on it. So, I mean, before we get into all the questions I have,

it's been about a week since we chatted. What's going on with you? Everything. My life is busy, but I love it. I actually had a really good meditation this morning,

an hour long meditation, not intentionally, but ended up being an hour long about my life. And I am

very busy. And I just kind of decided in this meditation, I just wouldn't have it any other way.

And the only thing that I need to change is my timelines, my expectations of how long things are

away from my left arm. So that's the problem. Right. And I think I love everything I do. There's nothing on that list that I want to cross off, maybe one or two things.

I'm like, I probably shouldn't be doing.

But to the most part, like I love everything I do.

I just need to be more realistic with people and with myself and timelines because I hate

letting people down, right?

Like if I say I'm going to do something really, really don't ever want to let anybody down. But sometimes, unfortunately, I do because I literally have, you know, and at some point you'll see my to-do lists. It's very long and everything

is like, hey, I want it done now. Can you get it done today? And you know, everybody's asking me to do that.

And it's a challenge. But yeah, my life is great. I'm writing a lot and, you know, planning a lot and formulating some supplements and I've got a lot of really cool things

that I'm working on project wise doing some things in the cannabis space you know building my website

so there's a lot of things that I'm managing so like I said I wouldn't have it any other way I just wish
