Hey guys. Welcome back to You'll survive and thrive. I am just sitting here, go to hot chocolate. We are ready to go. And if you guys are following them on Insta, then or TikTok, then you'll

know that I just posted on stories. I went to go have a little like coffee break before I started

the podcast. And I was literally jamming out to these songs that I like absolutely love. And

you guys were along with me for that ride. So we went over to Dungs and grabbed

a little hot chocolate because I'm just not much of a coffee drinker. I used to be when

Ryan was really little, but I'm 43. I feel like I just, and I'm highly sensitive. So if I have

even decaf, I can just get, I just feel like some people either can drink a ton of coffee and it just doesn't affect them whatsoever and they can just drink coffee all day and they still feel exactly the same.

Or some people will get like bursts of energy and then they'll kind of like drop.

And for me, I don't, none of those happen.

I just basically get really really really tired from coffee so i just don't drink it i always feel like absolute crap but for

some reason when ryan was really younger i just i could drink it um but i would like a whole coffee

i would only have a quarter of it or half of it and then I was done. But anyways, random fact about me that I don't like drinking coffee. I want to drink coffee. Like I love the smell of it. Even if I'm at like a basketball game of Ryan's and like I'm sitting next to one of my mom friends, she'll have like a coffee with her and I'm like, oh, that smells so good. And I have like a

bottled water, which, yes, I know water is better for you, but it just smells good. So,

when it ain't going to happen. So this week, I wanted to do something a little different. I

wanted to do a little like life update because I'm sure everyone, look, we're all in different like seasons of life but I know

that majority of the people that follow and listen are really in the same boat as me in terms of

age you know lifestyle you know all that kind of stuff like I, I am 43. I'm a business owner. I'm a mom.

I take care of my parents to a good, you know, extent. I'm in a relationship. I have a blended

family. So three boys under 12, all playing sports, all in activities. I have a dog. I own my own home.

That's a lot. That's a lot on the list. So everything is just, I feel like life is just super

busy right now, like almost like way busier than when I was like a single mom going through my divorce and just

like starting my business like a different a different busy but a more I feel like stressful busy
