I am Sarah Jane Case, and this is Anya Graham and Coffee.

Hello, everybody. Happy Monday and welcome back to the podcast. Today, we are having a conversation

about the myth of confidence. I'm so excited to dive into it with you today. But first, we're

going to talk about today's rose bud and thorn. So my rose for today is learning to look for the

magic in everyday things. I was talking to someone recently about how, you know, there was a time

in my life where I used to see a bird and I thought that bird is there for me. It's special.

And I have a harder time accessing that at this point in my life. And they were like, well, what if

you just, you know, when you do hear bird songs, which is something I really, really love,

when you hear bird songs, what if you just use that as an opportunity to remember that you are

one with the world and that good things are coming and you're taking care of. And I really,

really loved that perspective of instead of waiting for the magic feeling to be here, cultivating

the magic feeling by choosing to make it magic. So that is my rose for today. My bud is tonight,

we're going to watch a movie. We're going to make flatbreads and just have a nice evening in.

And I'm really looking forward to it. It's been a little bit of a long week. I'm recording this

on Friday and I'm just ready to curl up on the couch and watch a funny movie. My thorn for today

is, you know, hmm, I don't, I don't really know that I have one. That's like coming off the top

of my head. I'm going to say, you know what, we can have a thorn three week. No, my thorn is that

I don't like to make decisions. I'm going to go with that one. I have a lot of decisions to make

right now. A lot of moving pieces. And I really would just rather, I wouldn't rather not make the

decisions because it's a little too stressful as it stands. Like, I'm going to have to let some

things go and simplify my life. And so I have to figure out what needs to be cut and I'm really

stalling on it because I don't want to cut anything out, but I also can't keep doing it all.
