When you make an apology that's upright, that's empowered, it feels freaking fantastic.

It's an awesome feeling.

It's like, oh, right?

You feel strength in it, you feel responsible, you feel empowered.

Welcome to the art of accomplishment, where we explore how deepening connection with ourselves and others

leads to creating the life we want with enjoyment and ease. I'm Brett Kistler, here today with

my co-host, Joe Hudson. Good morning, Joe. How are you doing? Oh, man, it's been a heck of a day.

Yeah. Yeah. It's actually been more like a heck of a week for me,

frankly. It's the, you know, we just finished a week long last week, one of the groundbreakers.

And, and it's, you know, super intense. You go from 7.30 in the morning until 10 o'clock at night.

There's just a sense of a lot of things occurring and then I just find myself having to curate it a little bit and be like, sorry, I don't have time for this or I'm not not prioritizing that or, yeah, I know you really want my attention over here and I'd love to give it to you and I have this other priority. Yeah. And I can find myself going into this sort of a sort of like apologetic, not enough kind of energy.

And yeah, which brings us to what we wanted to talk about today, which is apologies.

And yeah, tell me a little bit about what brought this topic up for you today. It came up a couple ways.
