But before 9 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 1: we get into the episode, we have to talk about 10 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: our obsessions. 11 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 2: So what are you obsessed with? Sally? 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 3: My obsession of the week is the latest season of 13 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 3: Queer Eye. Have you seen that I haven't, But it's 14 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:52,160 Speaker 3: got the new guy, right, Yeah, the new interior design expert, Jeremiah. 15 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 4: And I always loved Bobby. 16 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 3: I love them all, but I did really love Bobby, 17 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 3: so I was really sad to see him leave, and 18 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 3: you know, was wondering how Jeremiah was going to come 19 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 3: in and you know. 20 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 4: How the dynamics would changed. I'm obsessed. 21 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 3: I honestly think nobody could replace Bobby in my heart. 22 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 3: But I do think that out of all of the 23 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: cast members, I relate to Jeremiah the most. 24 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: It's got great style too. Yeah, we're going to talk 25 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 2: about the air lefon and I think he's cateecute and 26 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's gaming. 27 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: But I just in the current current climate, there's lots 28 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: of bad things happening in the world, lots of things 29 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: to make us stressed, and if you need something to 30 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: remind you that there is good in the world, put 31 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: on queer eye. 32 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: That's such a nice sentiment. I love that. 33 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, what's your obsession? 34 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: My obsession of the week is a post I saw 35 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: from cash invest and it's an entire spreadsheet of high 36 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: interest savings accounts. It's like a cheat sheet of bank 37 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: accounts to find which is the best one to get 38 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: the most interest on your savings. 39 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: Wow, it's literally free. 40 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: She found it on Reddit and I'll put a link 41 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: in our bio to it and in the description. So 42 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: what it is is you can open it up and 43 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: it compares all the different accounts from banks, and it 44 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: also has a tab of the requirements, so if you 45 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: need to be within a certain age bracket, if you 46 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 1: need to save a certain amount to earn max, you 47 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: can on the interest, so it compares the minimum interest 48 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: you can get and the maximum interest you can get. 49 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: And we often get questions about what's the best bank 50 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: account to get the highest interest on your savings, and 51 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: we can't recommend because it borders financial advice. But this 52 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: is such a great way to do it because you 53 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: can just compare it yourself into your own kind of situation. 54 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 1: So whatever your age is, whatever your income is, whatever 55 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: you're planning on saving. I just think this is like 56 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 1: the best way to figure it out and it's just 57 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: such a good hack. So yeah, full credit to at 58 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 1: tash and best for that one. 59 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 2: I didn't what a sligh Yeah. 60 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 3: I literally was having a conversation with Chris last night 61 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: about how I want to do some. 62 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: Research and I'll send you a link by switch. I 63 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: was like, it's time, yeah, time to switch. 64 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 2: It's time, It's time. 65 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, shall we get into the things that 66 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: we forget are normal? 67 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 2: Let's do it. 68 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 3: My first thing that we forget is normal is feeling 69 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 3: behind in life because if you're in your late twenties 70 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 3: or early thirties, especially your social media feed is very 71 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 3: likely and onslaught of people getting engaged, people getting married, 72 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 3: having children, buying property, having amazing highlights in their career promotions. 73 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 3: That's fabulous. We love people celebrating their wins and achieving 74 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 3: milestones in their life. But the downside of this is 75 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 3: that it can often make us feel like we're lesser 76 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 3: than or that we haven't achieved everything that we thought 77 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: that we would buy a certain age, and we're constantly 78 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: comparing ourselves to other people. I think this is a 79 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 3: very common thing that happens as we enter our satin return, 80 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 3: that period between you know, sort of twenty seven and thirty, 81 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: and you think this isn't where I thought I would be, But. 82 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: No one is, isn't it. 83 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 3: The issue is, though, if you are always feeling like 84 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 3: you're behind in life, you're focusing on the past and 85 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 3: the future and not the present. 86 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 4: So I just want to say it's totally normal. 87 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 3: But I also think that there are some reminders that 88 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 3: we should all keep in mind if you are feeling 89 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 3: like you're behind in life. 90 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 4: So reminders. If you feel like you're. 91 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 3: Behind in life, you physically can't be behind in your 92 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 3: own life because it's your life and you are exactly 93 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 3: where you were meant to be. Like on your path 94 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 3: in life, there is nobody in front of you. 95 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 4: Or behind you. It's just you, so that's physically impossible. 96 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: Secondly, you're only behind in life if you're yourself to 97 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 3: other people. And I think that is completely normal, especially 98 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 3: in today's day and age, when we are looking into 99 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 3: other people's lives so much more than what we would 100 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 3: have been previously. But everybody is on their own journey, 101 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 3: and people are sharing the highlights, the highlight reel on 102 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 3: social media and even with your friends, like, you don't 103 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 3: know the things that they are going through, all the 104 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 3: things that they're telling themselves in their head, or all 105 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: the mistakes that they've made to get to the thing 106 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 3: that they've achieved, even like with some of the closest 107 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: people in your life, so you're never getting the full 108 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 3: picture of what somebody has gone through to get to 109 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 3: where they are in life. Also, stop comparing yourself to 110 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 3: your parents. I think that's a big that people in 111 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 3: our generation do, because if you look at where your 112 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 3: parents were when they were thirty in comparison to where 113 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 3: you might be in your late twenties and early thirties, 114 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 3: it's probably very very different. But we are living in 115 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 3: completely different circumstances to what our parents were, and in 116 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 3: some ways that can be a frustrating thing, but in 117 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 3: other ways that can be a really liberating thing. 118 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 4: If anything, I think that we have. 119 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 3: So much more choice and that should be normalized and celebrated. 120 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 3: But also it is harder than ever to be a 121 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 3: thirty year old in Australia right now, and I want 122 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 3: to play a clip to explain why is. 123 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 5: The hardest it's ever been for a thirty year old 124 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 5: illustrated in the Straights history. It is true thirty roles 125 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 5: are going to be less well off than their parents are. 126 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: That's a fact. 127 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 5: It's a fact that when I was thirty, the house 128 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 5: cost me three times my salary. Now eight times plus 129 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 5: for a thirty year old is what it's going to 130 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 5: cost you to get into the housing market. It's true 131 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 5: that hex has doubled in the last fifteen years, right 132 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 5: doubled from a fifteen thousand dollar bill to a thirty 133 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 5: thousand dollar bill. It's true that a baby boomer paid 134 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 5: half the tax that a thirty year old pays now 135 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 5: when they were thirty years of age. So the reality 136 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 5: is it is extremely difficult to be a thirty year 137 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 5: old in Australia right now. 138 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 3: Vindication that clip is from the Growing transfer. By the way, 139 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 3: we'll put a link in the show notes so you 140 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 3: can have a listen to it yourself. A bit black, No, 141 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 3: another reminder. 142 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 2: Thank you, one more done. 143 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 3: But I'm not sharing that to make anybody feel depressed 144 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: or helpless or hopeless, but more to normalize the things 145 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 3: that we are going through as young people in Australia, 146 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 3: and that if you are looking at where your parents 147 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 3: were in comparison to where you are now, that it 148 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 3: is completely different, and to give yourself a little bit 149 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 3: of grace and forgiveness that maybe you haven't achieved all 150 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 3: the things that they have, and that your life is going. 151 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 2: To look completely different theirs. I love that. 152 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: And can I just say, I am so happy that 153 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: half of the things that I thought I would have 154 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: or be at in my life at a certain age, 155 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: I'm so glad half of those didn't even happen, Right, Like, 156 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm so happy that half the shit that I wanted 157 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: when I was twenty one, or when I was twenty three, 158 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: or when I was twenty five, that I thought I 159 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: would have or be at, I'm so fucking glad that 160 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: I'm not. Yeah, because everything that is supposed to happen 161 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: in your life will and you'll end up where you're 162 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: supposed to be, and you'll look back at like the 163 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: most fucked breakup you've ever had, and you'll be like, 164 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: if that didn't happen, then I wouldn't have moved here, 165 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't have met my best friends or my partner, 166 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: or I wouldn't have gotten my dream. 167 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 2: Job or whatever. 168 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 1: It is like the roadmap of your life will lead 169 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: you to where you're meant to be, and like, I 170 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 1: think having faith in that is like one of the 171 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: best things you can do. My next thing that we 172 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: forget is normal is outgrowing friendships, not having a best friend, 173 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: and not having a friendship group. So, according to a 174 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen study, social circles peak in size around the 175 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: age of twenty five, and then they begin to get 176 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: smaller as responsibilities pile up. And I think this is 177 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: so like when I analyzed my own life, I was like, yep, 178 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 1: that checks out. Because on top of that, women lose 179 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: more friends around that time than men. 180 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 2: And we do discuss this a lot in. 181 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: Our book, Finding Your People, but I really wanted to 182 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: include it in this episode as well. After the response 183 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: we got on an episode a few weeks back, about 184 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: two weeks back with GEM and we shared the stat 185 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: that ninety one percent of people no longer call a 186 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: best friend their best friend anymore, because outgrowing friendships is 187 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: just such a normal part of life and whether it's 188 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: like incredibly heartbreaking and it's like a friendship breakup or 189 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: it's just a fizzle, like these things happen. And for 190 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: so much of my life, I really put a value 191 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 1: on how many friends I had, or whether or not 192 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: I had a best friend, or you know, how much 193 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: my social life was busy, and if it wasn't, I 194 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: felt really lesser then, and I felt like it was 195 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: such a reflection on me. 196 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 2: And it's just not the case. 197 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: And especially even like having a friendship group, like that's 198 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: not even the most positive thing that can happen, Like 199 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: friendship groups can be incredibly toxic that you can end 200 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: up not being an individual, not being able to spend 201 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: time on your own and not having like an individual 202 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: thought and just being like what would the group do? 203 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 1: Or we do this, or we don't really know them, 204 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: so we won't go to that, or you know, we're 205 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: gonna go to brunch on Saturday. But we can do 206 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: what you want to do after, like it just you 207 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: stop being who you are sometimes. 208 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's called group think. 209 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: It's like a psychological thing we talk about in the 210 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: book highly recommend and that is something that it is 211 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: normal to not have those things sometimes, and it's better 212 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: to not have those things, better to not have a 213 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: toxic friend or a toxic friendship group. And there is 214 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: this really popular saying that can keep you comfort if 215 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: you do relate to that, and it's that if you're 216 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: not outgrowing friendships, you're not growing up. You need to 217 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: be developing your values. You need to be developing yourself 218 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: as your own little character and human and that part 219 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: of that is outgrowing friendships. 220 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 221 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: And while this does tend to happen once you leave 222 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: high school, it's going to happen in your twenties and 223 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: your thirties and your forties and so on and so forth. 224 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: That having a small group of friends or having one 225 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: friend that's okay. 226 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 3: It can be hard to go through, but it's a 227 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 3: really comforting reminder. 228 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, And the second you accept that, I promise you 229 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: is the second that you will actually find the most 230 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: fruitful friendships of your life. The second that you're actually 231 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: okay with being on your own and being your own 232 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: best friend is when you will find the friendships that 233 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: you will have for the rest of your life. 234 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's when you're not going to settle for anything 235 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 3: exactly like less. My next thing that we forget is 236 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 3: normal is not enjoying having fun Over the break, did 237 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 3: you see that TikTok from Molly May that went viral 238 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 3: of her saying I just don't think I like having fun. 239 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. 240 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: And she was talking about how when she goes on 241 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: a big night out and you know, she's having drinks 242 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: and hanging out with a big group of people and 243 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: doing all these things that are fun and considered fun. Yeah, 244 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: in quotations, she realized that she actually wasn't having fun 245 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: at all, and she doesn't like having fun. The things 246 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: that she enjoys doing that are considered not fun or boring. 247 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: That's how she likes to spend her time. 248 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 2: Fun looks different to everyone. 249 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't have to like the things are typically 250 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 3: associated with having fun. 251 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,959 Speaker 1: If you like to go out and you like to 252 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: drink and have a night out with the girlies and 253 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 1: be loud and larry and you find that fun. 254 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 2: That's fabulous. Off same. 255 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, But also but also if you like to snuggle 256 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 3: up in bed with a good book and go to 257 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 3: bed at nine pm and then wake up the next 258 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 3: morning and get a coffee and go to the markets 259 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 3: and you find that fun, that's also fabulous. A lot 260 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 3: of the time if you say, oh, I'm not going 261 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 3: to go out, I want to stay in, or people 262 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 3: ask what are you doing on the weekend and you say, oh, 263 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 3: I'm just going to stay at home and I'm going 264 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 3: to clean my apartment and watch Drag Race, or I'm 265 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 3: not going to drink tonight. I'll probably head off after this, 266 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 3: and people like, oh, you're no fun lighting up have 267 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 3: some fun. That can be really frustrating. You can also 268 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 3: be sitting there being like, wait, am I not fun? 269 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: Like? Am I boring? Yeah? Like second guessing yourself, especially 270 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 2: if you. 271 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: Were younger and you did enjoy doing those things and 272 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: now you feel like you've grown out. 273 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 2: Of it a little bit, You're like, what has happened? 274 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: Like? 275 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,559 Speaker 3: Am I not fun anymore? Are people going to think 276 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 3: I'm boring? And the right friends won't think that you're boring? 277 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 3: And I think that's a completely normal part of life 278 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: to grow out of things. 279 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 4: And even for these things to fluctuate. 280 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: Yes, that's exactly what I was going to say. 281 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: Like, there are periods of my life that I'm like 282 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: such a social butterfly. I love like hanging out with 283 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: friends and going out and like having barbecues and stuff 284 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: like that. And then they're like, I think I've mentioned 285 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: this before, but I have like my two week fucking pie. 286 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, periods where I'm like, I. 287 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: Just need to go in a shell and go in 288 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: my dinner and cocoon and I'll be back in a. 289 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: Little bit exactly, like and that's so fine. 290 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 4: Yeah. 291 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 2: So it's a reminder that you are fun. Yeah, no 292 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 2: matter what you like doing. 293 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 4: Lean into that. And also, if your friend doesn't want. 294 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 3: To drink and they want to stay in or they 295 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: want to head home, don't say that they're boring or 296 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 3: they're not fun. 297 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 2: Imagine say just let them being like you're a bit yuck. 298 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. 299 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 3: A lot of the time I think it's coming from 300 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 3: a good place. People like I want you here, I 301 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 3: want you out, but but it's not it's not nice. 302 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I get that, love it. Okay. 303 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: My next one that is totally normal is not having 304 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: a passion. Yeah, so the pressure to find a singular 305 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: passion can be incredibly overwhelming, but exploring different interests is 306 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: part of the journey. So there's a common saying, but 307 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: the full saying isn't normally said. And do you know 308 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: what the full saying of Jack of all trades is? 309 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 2: Yes, dear, no, I don't know the second half. 310 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 4: And I know there's another. Okay, I don't tell me. 311 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 2: Yes, actually not, I know that there's. 312 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 4: Like it's a full sentence. 313 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So the full saying of Jack of all 314 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: trades is actually jack of all trades, master of none, 315 00:15:55,560 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: though often times better than master of one. And so 316 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: it's completely normal to not have just one singular passion 317 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: in life. I think we get in our heads that 318 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: we have to be really really good at one thing 319 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: and we don't know what that one thing. 320 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 2: Is, and we don't know who or what or what 321 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 2: we want to be. 322 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: Like think of when you were growing up, I wanted 323 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: to be a chef, I wanted to be a vet, 324 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: I wanted to be an author tic that one. But like, 325 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: there are so many things that you can have multiple passions. 326 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: Your passions can change, Like life is about experiencing so 327 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: many different things and trying it and even enjoying it. 328 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 2: For a little bit and then getting over it. If 329 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 2: you were. 330 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: Allowed to change your mind and you don't have to 331 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: know what your passion is, just try things like it's 332 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: just so much better. And there's this research from Stanford 333 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: University that suggests that the concept of finding one's passion 334 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: can be completely misleading. So these two psychologists found that 335 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: individuals who view interests as developed over time in brackets 336 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: a growth theory, are more open to new experiences and 337 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 1: resilient when facing challenges. Conversely, those who believe passions are 338 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: inherent and must be found, which is a fixed theory, 339 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: may abandon pursuits when they become difficult. 340 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 3: We feel a lot of pressure to have a purpose 341 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 3: in life and be like, this is my one thing. 342 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 3: I was born put on this earth to achieve this 343 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 3: one thing. 344 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 4: And then if you face a bump in. 345 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 3: The road or you pursue it and you're like, actually, 346 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 3: this is kind of bloring. I don't like this, not 347 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 3: for me, Yeah, then you let it go and you 348 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 3: feel like a failure. Whereas if you're letting these passions 349 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 3: come to you as you explore them, then you can 350 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 3: actually test and play and discover what you like rather 351 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 3: than being like, no, I'm meant to be a writer, 352 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:47,199 Speaker 3: and that is it. 353 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 2: Yes, I must be a poet. 354 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 4: I can't spell. 355 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 2: That's me. I don't have a writer. I still can't spell. 356 00:17:58,400 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 2: That's why we have sub editors. 357 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 4: God, let's sell it love. 358 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,959 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think if you are feeling like you're like, 359 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: what the fuck am I supposed to do in life? 360 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: I don't know what my passion is. I don't know 361 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: what like makes me want to jump out of the 362 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 1: bed in the morning. That's so fine because I actually 363 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: think ninety nine percent of the world feels that way. Yeah, like, 364 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:24,959 Speaker 1: and that's okay. Just honestly, if you wake up, just 365 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,479 Speaker 1: try to leave the day a little bit better than 366 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: when you started it. I think that's like the best 367 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: way that you can have as a guiding light for 368 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: life is just to leave the world. 369 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 2: A little bit better. 370 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, don't put all of your eggs in one basket. 371 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: Nah, get the whole get the whole box and throw 372 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: them at different houses. 373 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 2: Egg different people's houses. 374 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 4: That's my purpose in life. 375 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 2: Vandalism jokes. 376 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: And I just had two quick little ones that I 377 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: also wanted to finish on that are totally normal, and 378 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: one well, my second last, needing attention. 379 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 2: Yes, I am a needy little girl. 380 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: I need words of affirmation, I need quality time, I 381 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: need physical touch, I need it all.

Dearest chickies. 431 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: I found out my ex from a few years ago 432 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: is back on the dating scene. I've known this for 433 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: roughly two months now, but I can't shake the idea 434 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: of him moving on. For context, we broke up because 435 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: he said he wasn't ready to date, and to be honest, 436 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,679 Speaker 1: it destroyed me. I accidentally made out with him a 437 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 1: few years back, drunk me whoop please, and a day 438 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: or two afterwards we met up. He said he wanted 439 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 1: to get back together. I rejected him, though, saying that 440 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: it was an accident and that I had moved on 441 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: and started dating again and so should he. However, this 442 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: was a lie. I never went on any dates after 443 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: we broke up. I thought that by saying I did, 444 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: it would help us both move on emotionally. I kept 445 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: repeating that narrative in my head, hoping it would eventually 446 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: feel true. I was at a point in my life 447 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 1: then where I was enjoying being independent. Now cut back 448 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: to present day, where I've lived my best single life, 449 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: learning to put me first and figuring out who I am. 450 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 1: Have eventually dated a bit now too, lol, and I'm 451 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: wondering whether we were a case of right person. 452 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 2: Wrong timing. 453 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: We have a semi similar friend group, so I do 454 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: bump into him on occasion, but we never hold a 455 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: conversation long enough, and I feel like I always get butterflies. 456 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 2: Around him and become too awkward to talk.
