Welcome to the happy times podcast. My name is Joey Kidney your host and this is the first time ever that we're doing this live on Twitch my

Twitch is Joey Kidney which is just like normal what's really nice is that like no one else has my god damn name like no

One ever has my name so I get like my account on absolutely everything which is super super nice

but yeah we're doing this live and so if you want to tune in next time just hop on I record every Thursday

between 10 and 12 and then the podcast goes to the whole entire world on Friday at around 11 a.m. which is really exciting

now today I'm gonna jump right into it today I woke up and I was like super super stressed out

I was having the hardest day and it was sort of like the littlest reason possible the only like the one reason

I had a really really rough morning today and it's not even just like it was it was this morning

it was every single morning for like the past a little bit

it's because of my hair

now that's such a little thing that's such a simple tiny thing but it's something that's so damn big for me

okay so when we have something that's so little that's so small that that interferes with you know our well-being

or how we look at ourselves when we look in the mirror or the way we feel about ourselves just being there

it's not always about looking in the mirror and feeling great it's about just feeling great

before you look in the mirror it's about feeling great and that's it that's that's the whole point

and I woke up today and I just didn't feel great and I was like why like what is this

and every single day I've always had a really hard time like getting up and getting dressed in the morning

and that seems like it's such a small task to some but to me it's always been a really really hard task

I know a lot of people struggle with you know showering or putting on deodorant or brushing their teeth

because they're like it's already it's already bad why not why try to make it better

it's gonna just end up worse and that's their thought process and I've dealt with that I do with that a lot

and for me lately it's been my looks it's been it's been how I feel about my looks
