| 0:00.0 | A lot of work in economics and psychology suggests that our beliefs are self-fulfilling prophecies. |
| 0:07.0 | If you believe in somebody, you will put faith in them. |
| 0:10.5 | They will see that you've put faith in them and they will step up. |
| 0:14.7 | It's what's known as earned trust in economics. |
| 0:17.2 | If you invest money in somebody else and they have the chance to pay you back, |
| 0:21.0 | the more you invest in them, the more percentage of that investment that they'll pay back to you. |
| 0:26.1 | The return on investment of trust is enormous because people reciprocate. And if we instead |

| 0:37.0 | I'm not going to trust people. |
| 0:39.1 | Other people can tell that you're feeling that way. They can tell in the distant ways that you |

| 1:16.4 | And for really good reason, you know that I've been an advocate of cold and heat exposure for more than a decade. |
| 1:22.1 | And quite simply, plunge are the best products in this line of business when it comes to cold plunges, |
| 1:28.8 | sonas, anything of the sort. These products are plug and play. They start at just 120 bucks and |
| 1:34.1 | go all the way up to, as you might imagine, the MacDaddy Cadillac versions. I've always only |
| 1:39.2 | partnered with products I actually use and endorse and this fits the bill perfectly. And to be clear, I reached out to the folks at plunge.com about partnering because they make |
| 1:49.7 | the best stuff. |
