She was deaf, dumb and blind and 172 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 3: still managed to learn how to speak, and she wrote 173 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: like she could write and read braille, and just it's 174 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 3: the most extraordinary story and again something that I think 175 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: a lot of us we might have heard her quotes, 176 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 3: but people who didn't study her at school or you know, 177 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: have had no one read her materials or know about her. 178 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 3: Is one of those women that I think we all 179 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 3: need to know about. And so definitely she's on the list. 180 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: For the historical episodes, which. 181 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 3: I think should be called Yester Yay like Yesteryear but 182 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 3: yesterya just dropping that in there, So feedback poll votes 183 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 3: welcome at any time. But the quote from her was 184 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 3: a bend in the road is not the end of 185 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 3: the road unless you forget to take the turn. And 186 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 3: I think that's such an amazing quote at a time 187 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 3: in our lives where all of us were on this 188 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 3: one particular road, even if we didn't know exactly where 189 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: it would end up, most of us had some kind 190 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 3: of idea of what our life is going to look like. 191 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 3: Then COVID came and has caused so many bends in 192 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 3: so many roads, and has led a lot of us 193 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 3: to feel like it's the end of some things and 194 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 3: the end of some good things. But I feel like 195 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 3: in any case where there's a bit of a shift 196 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 3: in your plan, if you decide to make the right turn, 197 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 3: to make the right pivot from that, then it doesn't 198 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 3: have to be the end. It can just be a 199 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 3: change or and often it can be an improvement on 200 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 3: the plan that you originally had. And I thought, for 201 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 3: a woman who lived life with the most adversity you 202 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 3: could imagine, even just to communicate what she was feeling 203 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 3: was enormously difficult to have that kind of depth of wisdom. 204 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 4: I don't know. 205 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 3: The quote just came to me at a time where 206 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 3: I was thinking about bends in the road, and you know, 207 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 3: quotes always find you when you need the most. I 208 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 3: just thought, what an amazing quote, And it also linked 209 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 3: so well to a Yeghborhood Watch item which just happened 210 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 3: over the weekend the Australian Open finals about the great 211 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 3: Ash Barty and her bend in the road. 212 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a perfect time. 213 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 5: Because I was talking to someone last night, like on 214 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 5: My Friends last night, I had a similar concept in 215 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 5: that she was feeling like in a bit of a 216 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 5: rut because she wasn't where she thought she would be 217 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 5: by this point, and I was like, you do forget? 218 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 5: The last two years has been the most unprecedented And 219 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 5: it's such a use word now, but there's no other word, 220 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 5: but most unexpected. I guess bend in the road, like, 221 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 5: how were you going to know that we're going to 222 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 5: have a pandemic that's going to last two three years 223 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 5: and achieve really big? 224 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 4: You know? 225 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 5: She was in the schedule of life where people around 226 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 5: you are having babies, getting married, getting engaged, buying houses. 227 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 4: And I think it's actually quite hard. 228 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 5: I reflected on that too, and I was like, everyone 229 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 5: is on a different path, and I feel like there 230 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 5: shouldn't be timing on milestones to determine how. 231 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 4: Successful you at a particular age. 232 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 5: I feel like everyone's on a different path and a 233 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 5: different pace and they get to where they need to 234 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 5: be whenever that is, and everyone's got different purposes, so 235 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 5: it's really hard to compare to someone next to us 236 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 5: the same age that a chief business and this because 237 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 5: that might not be your path, Like that might not 238 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 5: be what your life is and what you want. So 239 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 5: I think, like that Ben in the road thing, it's 240 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 5: quite nice to see that, you know, not everyone has 241 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 5: a linear path to where they want to be. Everyone 242 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 5: takes their own little journey in the bend might come earlier, 243 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 5: and some people's bend might come later, and that turn 244 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 5: might come earlier in that time come later. 245 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 4: So I think someone is you just keep working towards 246 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 4: what you want. 247 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 5: That's the only thing you can ask with yourself because 248 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 5: everything else study you can totally, you know, the whole way, 249 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 5: control what you can control, and an except what you can't. 250 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, totally. 251 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 3: And I think one of the things that's really unique 252 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 3: about this whole past kind of two and a half 253 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 3: years is that even if you let go of the 254 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 3: comparison with other people and other people's timelines, then there's 255 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 3: the issue of you comparing yourself with the timeline you 256 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 3: thought you would have. So I think a lot of 257 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 3: us have still held onto this. That's where I thought 258 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 3: I would be, like I should be here, But because 259 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 3: the world has been, you know, so messy, I'm not. 260 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 3: And we have this parallel, like me where I should 261 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 3: be versus me where I am, and I think because 262 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 3: you can't change that that's happened. The more you worry 263 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,599 Speaker 3: about that and make that COMPARI, and the more you 264 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 3: keep that hypothetical you alive, it just causes like upset, 265 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 3: It just causes disappointment. It just causes all these feelings 266 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 3: that by comparison, you're not reaching up to whatever you 267 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: thought you would be at by now, the more you 268 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 3: let that be a comparison, you're just going to feel 269 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 3: bad about it, and you can't you can't go back 270 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 3: to that hypothetical situation anyway. So it's sort of like 271 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 3: the earlier that you can accept that this is what's 272 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 3: happened to all of us, this is what's happened to 273 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: the world. It's not ideal. It's caused a lot of upset, 274 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 3: but you're exactly you know, you're only where you are. 275 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: You're never going to be back in that hypothetical situation. 276 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 3: So it's been a big thing for me to kind 277 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 3: of let go of. Oh, but I would have been 278 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 3: or me without COVID would have been at there's no 279 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 3: point in looking at me without COVID, because it is 280 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 3: that's not a real scenario. So I feel like the 281 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 3: bend in the road situation also involves letting go of 282 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 3: imagining that the road never bent and just still comparing 283 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 3: yourself to the straight line, because that will just it 284 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 3: will just never make you happy, right Like, it's always 285 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 3: going to leave you feeling if so, I think, Yeah, 286 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 3: the more you focus on the road that you're on 287 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 3: and the pivots you can make, the better it is 288 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 3: for you. And you don't feel a loss of a 289 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 3: loss of anything because you realize you actually haven't lost anything. 290 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 3: You weren't necessarily going to have that life anyway. So yeah, 291 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 3: I feel like that's really interesting. It's so much about mindset. 292 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 3: And the thing is that we were talking about in 293 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 3: our first attempt at this episode was that everything really 294 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 3: that happens to you is like there's an element of 295 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 3: the physical facts of something, or your physical skill or 296 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 3: your physical ability to do something, but most of the 297 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 3: time it's your mental approach to that thing. Like, really, 298 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 3: that's the bigger picture. And I was talking to a 299 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 3: good friend, you know, I'm referring to she's just started 300 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 3: an amazing business, Like has I had an extraordinary life? 301 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 3: Has just started this amazing business. All the outside markers 302 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 3: of that business in its first little while have been 303 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 3: absolutely incredible. But through no actual event, she just spiraled 304 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 3: into this like I can't do it, I should close it. 305 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: This worst idea ever. And it's not got anything to do. 306 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 3: With the physical facts of the market, the physical quality 307 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 3: of her idea, her incredible skill to be able to 308 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 3: do it. It's all about her brain, Like your biggest 309 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 3: barrier is always mentally whether you can do it or not. 310 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 3: And just with the chat to one person, we just 311 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 3: went over it and went over the doubts until we 312 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 3: could kind of quash them together. And by the end 313 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 3: of it, she was like, I'm so excited to have 314 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 3: this business. And we were reading about ash Party obviously 315 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 3: has made history over the weekend, like I was bawling 316 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 3: as if she was like my sister. I was bawling 317 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 3: during her game because it was just like a moment 318 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 3: for the nation, like she's come so far and she's 319 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 3: only twenty five, and it was just so emotional.

I can't do anything today. 412 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 3: But they are like, you know, so close to losing 413 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 3: everything and can still come back from that, And you 414 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 3: think it's similar to you know, Samantha Gash. You guys 415 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 3: all have heard her on the show a couple of times. 416 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 3: Our good friend in her ultra marathon running, like she 417 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 3: was never a runner by background, and she puts an 418 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 3: enormous amount of physical conditioning into her training, but she's 419 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 3: never been the most natural, naturally built athlete. She's never 420 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,199 Speaker 3: been the most naturally fast person, but she is the 421 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 3: mentally strongest person. So it's like her body will do 422 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 3: what her brain. It'll cave to her brains will, whereas 423 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 3: most of us are the other way around, like you know, 424 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 3: our mind caves first and our body, Like, my body 425 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 3: can run way further than my brain will let it. 426 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 3: It's just that my brain's like, oh, it's probably like 427 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 3: I'm probably getting a bit solid, I probably want to 428 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 3: leave now, but her brain is just like not, I 429 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 3: will do. 430 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: It's just so interesting after. 431 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 5: The marathon, and it's so weird, just physiologically and psychologically 432 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 5: that after the. 433 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 4: Marathon, obviously we've just did this big train program, run 434 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 4: forty two kmeters. 435 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 5: I had so much fun, felt really good, and then 436 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 5: now weeks after, both Laws and I are really struggling 437 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,239 Speaker 5: to run.

But there's so many 534 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 5: traditions in the Buddhist Vietnamese culture that I've grown to 535 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 5: want to know more about and continue to hold on too, 536 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 5: And one of which is celebrating the lunar New Year 537 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 5: with all its festivities and traditions. 538 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 4: So for us. 539 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 5: Culturally, and I'm sure every family will do different things. 540 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 5: So in Vietnamese culture, it's different to what you know 541 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 5: if you go to say Singapore or China or other 542 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 5: people may experience, but very much is celebrated the same calendar, 543 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 5: which a lunar calendar. 544 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 4: That's why it called lunar New Year. 545 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 5: But tonight we will be having a really big feast, 546 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 5: and what my norma does, we'll go to our parents' 547 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 5: place and have that. And what we normally do is, 548 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 5: actually they do a lot of praying. So at twelve 549 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 5: will normally burn the incense and invite our ancestors down 550 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 5: to eat. This is all figure of figur but figurative 551 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 5: obviously goodness may too much a messic cuzzy, Mazi cuzzy. 552 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 4: Now I can't talk. 553 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 8: So what we do is we burn incense, and that 554 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 8: incense smoke goes up, and while the incent is burning, 555 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 8: we say a prayer or send out invitation in. 556 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 4: Front of the altar. And that's actually how we'd call. 557 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 5: The ancestors down to join us for the meal for 558 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 5: the night. And sometimes we used to burn paper clothes 559 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 5: and that smoke going up would be gifting them clothes. 560 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 5: So it's quite spiritual. I'd say, this whole process. So 561 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 5: we'll do a lot of cooking. Mom will do a 562 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 5: lot of cooking tonight. The other thing she does is 563 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 5: like a lot of superstitious things, so cleaning their house 564 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 5: and then sweeping dust out of the house at midnight 565 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 5: to like sweep away last year's woes or whatever and 566 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 5: then start the new year fresh. Yeah, really cool cultural 567 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 5: things like that. So that'd be tonight and then tomorrow 568 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 5: is Near's Day, and then normally what we do for 569 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 5: that is we would wear our yi, which is a 570 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 5: bit in me stress, and we will wish each of 571 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 5: our parents and our grandmas well, which is for the year, 572 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 5: and that's when we receive our red pockets. 573 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 1: Oh she's going to be rich. 574 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 4: Yeah.

So in the Korean culture, your 687 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 3: time I have to remember this correctly. So from the 688 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 3: time you're born to I think it's on January one, 689 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 3: So just say, like you're born, I'm born on March 690 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 3: twenty fourth, so in Western culture that starts the clock 691 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 3: at zero, and then next March twenty fourth I turned one. 692 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 3: In the Korean culture, I'm zero, but then Onmber thirty 693 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 3: first to January first, I turned one then and then 694 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 3: I would turn two on March twenty fourth, So the 695 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 3: calendar year clocks you over a year. 696 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 1: I think that's how it works. All you're born at 697 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: one one or the other, but. 698 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: Often your Korean age is like one to two years 699 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 3: older than your Western age, which again like so interesting 700 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 3: that different cultures actually date people from different times. 701 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, so same in Vietna's culture. 702 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 5: So when you're your date starts when you're in the 703 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 5: so that's like zero. 704 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 4: So when you're born, I'm pretty sure you're one. 705 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: By the would you be like nine months? 706 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 4: No, I think they just I don't know when they started. 707 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 5: But because studying on jennifers is way too hard to calculate, so. 708 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 4: They are not for Korean and always come on, goodness me, you. 709 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: Learned that last week? Oh my God, you learned that 710 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: Bougie came from last week. We are so smart. 711 00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:03,959 Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, we are smart. Mrt y.

You readian Ada and I 714 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 5: was like what And then always remember, in these age 715 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 5: you're actually already eighteen. So it's a mix of following 716 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 5: the lunar calendar and the fact that you're like already 717 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 5: an age when you when you're born. O. 718 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 4: That complicates all sorts of things. 719 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: It's so complicated, but cute.

Another one that on an environmental 857 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 3: level that I think is amazing is California, which is 858 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 3: not an obscure state right, It's like one of the 859 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 3: biggest states. So the impact of this legal change is huge. 860 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 3: Now requires grocery stores and food suppliers to donate all 861 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 3: their edible food waste to a food rescue or food bank, 862 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 3: which I think is extraordinary because it's outrageous when you 863 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 3: think about it. That's so much food it gets thrown 864 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,399 Speaker 3: out just because it doesn't look like like apples don't 865 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,399 Speaker 3: look like a circle. Like how ridiculous is it that 866 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 3: we're so discerning that it's like, oh, it looks a 867 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,399 Speaker 3: bit funny, like the ugly fruit gets thrown out. 868 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 4: Do you know what? 869 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 5: I actually speaking of sustainability and food waste, I'm not 870 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 5: really one to have resolutions, but I was trying to 871 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,839 Speaker 5: set goals and things, and I really wanted to be 872 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 5: a lot more conscious this year in terms of plastic 873 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 5: and food waste, and laws love her to be so 874 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 5: she is just so good with this stuff, and I 875 00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 5: was like, oh, I was going to be like you anyway. 876 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 5: I did a for like a week and I was like, yeah, 877 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 5: I'm not a roll and then then I forgot So 878 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,359 Speaker 5: now that you've reminded me, I was like, damn, I. 879 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 4: Got to get this kitchen caddy, Like I have the 880 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:11,760 Speaker 4: council center. 881 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 5: This kitchen caddy thing, and I was like, yeah, you 882 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 5: gotta do it, Like did it for a week, have 883 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 5: mango peels and a stuff.

Will you do 892 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 4: it with me? Yeah? 893 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 3: That's a good one, absolutely, And I think it's also 894 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 3: good to acknowledge that, like, even with the best intentions, 895 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:48,800 Speaker 3: habit change isn't straightforward, right, Like, it doesn't come even 896 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:51,839 Speaker 3: if you don't want to be behaving in a particular way. 897 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,479 Speaker 3: It's just habit often that you have to break, which 898 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 3: is if it were easy, then half the world's businesses 899 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 3: would go out of business. Like, it's not easy for 900 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 3: us to change habit. So it's maybe better for you 901 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 3: to set yourself like a smaller goal that's achievable week 902 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 3: by week and just add to that rather than being like, 903 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 3: oh my god, I'm going totally plastic free and totally 904 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 3: everything like in one week. Most change isn't sustainable when 905 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 3: you do it that way. 906 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 5: Yes, so she's taught me a lot, she's been awesome 907 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,919 Speaker 5: and that that's actually an easy thing to do. It's 908 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 5: not a drastic change in your life. I think no 909 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,880 Speaker 5: plastic is actually really hard because a lot of it 910 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 5: is value. Things are packaged in a way that sometimes 911 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 5: it's really hard to actually avoid that. Whereas putting food 912 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 5: into a food canny versus a like garbage bin is 913 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 5: actually just your conscious choice. 914 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 4: You can decide to do that it's just a lifestyle change. 915 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 5: And the other thing, you, honest I doing is if 916 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 5: I don't have my keep cup, I'm not allowed to 917 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:48,959 Speaker 5: take away drink. 918 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: That's a good one. Oh my god. I love that. 919 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: I need do that too. 920 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 4: That's amazing because it's just habit and lifestyle changes. 921 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,319 Speaker 5: But I think it's important because I feel like we 922 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 5: and my children and your children's generations are gonna cop 923 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,720 Speaker 5: the brunt of it all in terms of climate change 924 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:11,800 Speaker 5: and yeah, all the things environmentally that are happening. So yeah, 925 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:14,439 Speaker 5: our touch space two weeks and we'll update each other. 926 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 5: That's good accountability. And anyone else that wants to join, 927 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 5: please feel free too. 928 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's such a good one, Such a 929 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: good one. Vim. 930 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 3: Well, I have a couple of other things on the list. 931 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 3: These are all in celebration of women and their achievements. 932 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 3: So history has been made by nineteen year old Zara 933 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 3: rather Fitch.

I think 984 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 4: it might be everyone does. 985 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 1: Shouldn't there be a scientific reason. I feel like there 986 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 1: should be anyone listening if there's a scientific reason. Can 987 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: you please let us know? 988 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 3: And very last section for today recommendations, Mine is from You, 989 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 3: which we watched together. And it's one of those beautiful 990 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 3: documentaries that taps into a form of YA that you 991 00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 3: don't even have to ever think this is going to 992 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 3: be your form of YA to appreciate, you know how. 993 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 3: Sometimes well, in every episode, pretty much with a guest, 994 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 3: I dive deep into a niche that I've never heard 995 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 3: about or really known much about. And this movie is 996 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 3: Andrew's favorite movie ever called Free Solo and it's about 997 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 3: free soloing, which I also didn't even know was a 998 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 3: thing called free soloing. 999 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 1: So tell us about it, angeon why we should I 1000 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:46,239 Speaker 1: watch it? 1001 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 5: It is one of my favorite movies of all time. 1002 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 4: That and Icarus. 1003 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 5: Icarus, those two movies I can watch again and again 1004 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 5: and again, and I always recommend it, and I'm always like, 1005 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 5: I'll watch it with you and then and then I've 1006 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 5: watched it like a six times. But essentially, Alex Ronald 1007 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 5: is a He boulders and he climbs rock, so he's 1008 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 5: rock climber, but he has this amazing want to climb 1009 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,279 Speaker 5: our cap which is this huge I think it was 1010 00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 5: like five thousand feet awesome, No, anyway, it's very it's 1011 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 5: huge climb that normally takes people, like sometimes people climb 1012 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 5: a camp on the rock face because it's quite an 1013 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 5: arduous climb. It's really long and there's lots of different pitches. 1014 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,800 Speaker 5: Pictures are kind of segments on it that you climb. Anyway, 1015 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 5: his goal is to climate free soling, and free solwing 1016 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 5: or solowing is when they do it without any harnesses 1017 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 5: or anything. 1018 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 4: They're not clipped into anything. 1019 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:45,280 Speaker 5: So he's genuinely climbing without ropes, without a harness, without 1020 00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 5: any protective gear. It's just him and it's this incredible 1021 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 5: feat of human just achievement, and he climbs like obviously 1022 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 5: you know the result because he's not dead, because essentially, 1023 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 5: if you do one thing wrong, you fall thousands of. 1024 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 4: Feet and that's it. Like, that's just it. 1025 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:08,920 Speaker 5: I think it's like a five thousand or three to 1026 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 5: five thousand feet just literally almost like a vertical rock 1027 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 5: face in Yosemity. 1028 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 1: It's insane. 1029 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:16,240 Speaker 5: And you watch the documentary and he's got these little tiny, 1030 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 5: little pincer grip rocks that he's holding onto and you're 1031 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 5: just like, and his toe is what's holding him up 1032 00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:24,800 Speaker 5: or and he's climbing through crevices and he's going straight 1033 00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 5: up anyway. So you just go through his whole story 1034 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 5: of how he gets up and how he achieves it, 1035 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 5: and just the training that's involved in the sycrifice that 1036 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 5: goes behind it, and then you understand the athletic abilities 1037 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 5: that he has to be able to do that. And 1038 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 5: the other thing that we really enjoyed, well, we didn't 1039 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 5: really enjoy it, but that was interesting to see was 1040 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 5: that his really great friends were filming and obviously had 1041 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 5: a lot of moral and a lot of cognitive dissonance 1042 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 5: in terms whether or not to film or not to film, 1043 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,720 Speaker 5: because essentially, if he did one wrong move or maneuver, 1044 00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 5: he would fall and die. 1045 00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 4: And they had to accept the fact. 1046 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,240 Speaker 5: That that they may be there and watching and filming 1047 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:08,680 Speaker 5: that all happen. But yeah, watch the movie. It's it's 1048 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 5: one so many awards after it was. I think it 1049 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 5: started as a very independent film and has now won 1050 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:17,320 Speaker 5: so many awards, and it's even if you've never bolded 1051 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 5: rock climbs anything before. 1052 00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 4: It's really worth a watch, so highly recommend. 1053 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,760 Speaker 3: I feel like it's similar to the Richard Harris story. 1054 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,959 Speaker 3: The cave Diver, which you guys all know is still 1055 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,160 Speaker 3: my favorite episode. You don't have to love or ever 1056 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 3: think you'll go technical cave diving to appreciate what it's 1057 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 3: like to see someone else's yay in that area, And like, 1058 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 3: one of the coolest things from a yay perspective is 1059 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:45,280 Speaker 3: the idea that most people like can't think of anything worse, 1060 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,399 Speaker 3: like he's yay, he's pure yea. The thing that he's 1061 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 3: meant to do and that lights him up the most 1062 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 3: is something that most people have such a stronger version to, 1063 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,960 Speaker 3: which is just a reminder that like, no one's meant 1064 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 3: to be turned on by the same things or turned 1065 00:48:58,560 --> 00:48:59,279 Speaker 3: off by the same thing. 1066 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 1: So if you and something unusual to. 1067 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,400 Speaker 3: Be aya, that that's like we're built that way and 1068 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:06,879 Speaker 3: not and literally built that way. So my favorite part 1069 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 3: of the whole show was the medical Like there's a 1070 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 3: lot of He's obviously has some injuries, but also he's 1071 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 3: become the subject of a lot of studies of like 1072 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 3: why can he do this? Why is he so much 1073 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 3: better than other people? And if you've done a lot 1074 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,160 Speaker 3: of work, you know, anything into any research into kind 1075 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 3: of neurology or neuroscience, the amygdala is the part of 1076 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 3: the brain responsible for fear and stress, and so all 1077 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 3: that self doubt and risk aversion lives in the amygdala. 1078 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 3: And there's a standard test that you can do where 1079 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 3: you kind of get shown like a shark and you 1080 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 3: get shown really fear provoking pictures and they measure your 1081 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 3: brain with an MRA to see what kind of activity 1082 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 3: is going on in your brain, and they can actually 1083 00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:49,719 Speaker 3: see that the average person has like a certain level 1084 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 3: of red activity and the amigdala because the fear in 1085 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 3: juicy pictures, Alex had nothing like actually no activity of 1086 00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 3: fear whatsoever. He was literally built and born to have 1087 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:06,600 Speaker 3: a higher threshold of fear than the average person, which 1088 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 3: means he's perfectly suited to this kind of activity because 1089 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 3: his brain actually doesn't register the fear like someone else. 1090 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,200 Speaker 3: And that just for me, in a as a CZA 1091 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:18,800 Speaker 3: focused person, was like, that's the key, right, We're all 1092 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:22,359 Speaker 3: built for a different for different ingredients of stuff, and 1093 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 3: so why do we keep this narrative of like I 1094 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 3: have to do what everyone else likes and I have 1095 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 3: to hate what everyone else hates. It just blows my 1096 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:31,800 Speaker 3: mind that that's still something we all kind of assume. 1097 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:35,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's a mix of he was born 1098 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 5: with a different sense of fear, but also he was 1099 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:40,919 Speaker 5: primed in that way. Also, he had been bordering since 1100 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:44,440 Speaker 5: he was a kid, a really young kid, and he. 1101 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 4: Continued that for a very long time. 1102 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 5: Like if we look at when we were kids and 1103 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 5: the types of risks that we were taking, and you know, 1104 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:53,920 Speaker 5: we were jumping off things, we all stopped doing that 1105 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 5: at one point, whereas he never stopped. He kept climbing 1106 00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 5: all throughout his adult life. He lives in a van, 1107 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 5: and he was out of abound new climbs, rocks. He 1108 00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:04,319 Speaker 5: does it without harnesses. He has continued to do so. 1109 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 5: So his threshold for fear and what he needs to 1110 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 5: kind of get that part of his brain responsive is, 1111 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 5: like you said, a lot high. 1112 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 4: In his much higher first sholder. So perhaps so that 1113 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,680 Speaker 4: we just all need to we can all be a 1114 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 4: little bit more childlike. 1115 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,920 Speaker 5: A bit more to be able to be more fearless 1116 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 5: in life. 1117 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:26,839 Speaker 1: More playa interest, return to the childlike sense of wow. 1118 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 4: Wow product placement. 1119 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,720 Speaker 1: Oh well, thank you so much for him for joining 1120 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 1: me for another years of our lives.
