0:00:44.640 --> 0:00:47.199
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm literally figuring out as I go. But I

0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:50.159
<v Speaker 1>realized I gotta just keep going. You know. Every week

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm coming to the studio and I record my podcast,

0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:56.560
<v Speaker 1>and I recorded in such a way that I know

0:00:57.480 --> 0:01:00.600
<v Speaker 1>and one day this is gonna be something big. I

0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:04.040
<v Speaker 1>can't explain. How do I know? I just know what

0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:08.440
<v Speaker 1>I know that I know, and that's how I feel

0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>like you gotta be about your dreams. There's no rooms

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:14.559
<v Speaker 1>for no butts, maybees if it doesn't work out, because

0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 1>you just gotta know. You gotta know that you know

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:19.760
<v Speaker 1>that you know, and that's the truth, and you know

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:23.039
<v Speaker 1>the truth by the way that it feels. And I

0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:24.760
<v Speaker 1>guess I just want to encourage you with that, with

0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>anything that you want. Sometimes people like were doing how

0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:30.119
<v Speaker 1>did you know you were gonna make it? Or doing

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:31.760
<v Speaker 1>how did you know you're gonna do it? Or basically

0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:35.119
<v Speaker 1>doing how did you do it? I was just doing it.

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I had everything figured out. I just

0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:39.600
<v Speaker 1>put one ft in front of the other and I

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 1>decided to keep moving. And I want to encourage you

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:47.800
<v Speaker 1>to keep moving, keep going after it. It It gets you

0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 1>excited for a reason. You're passionate about it for a reason,

0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 1>it intrigues you for a reason. Entertain it just for

0:01:56.720 --> 0:02:00.160
<v Speaker 1>that reason. Feed yourself something, take it to you ins

0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:03.160
<v Speaker 1>on yourself. Can you please do that for yourself? Please?

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:08.519
<v Speaker 1>I want that for you because I want that for me.

0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Go out, think your dreams, Go ahead and take a chance.

0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:16.520
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to have it all figure out, just

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:20.840
<v Speaker 1>one step at a time, Okay, one step at a time,

0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:24.040
<v Speaker 1>and it's okay if you don't have it all figured out.

0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:28.120
<v Speaker 1>It's okay if you make a mistake, because you're learning.

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:31.720
<v Speaker 1>And when you're learning, that means you're growing. When you're growing,

0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>that means you're stretching. When you're stretching, that means you're expanding.

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 1>When you're expanding, that means you're experiencing new things. And

0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:44.240
<v Speaker 1>when you're experiencing new things, that means you're living. I'll

0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 1>go out there and live, get your iteminy right with me,

0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:56.080
<v Speaker 1>and get excited about your lives. What is happening, What

0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:59.520
<v Speaker 1>is going on? I feel like it's been for ever

0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:02.240
<v Speaker 1>since I came in the studio. I had to go

0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:04.720
<v Speaker 1>out of town. Um had a death in the family,

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:08.680
<v Speaker 1>so went out to Detroit to see the fan band

0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 1>and show support. And yeah, and I'm gonna say you know,

0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:16.120
<v Speaker 1>I was going for about a week, so I've been

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:19.200
<v Speaker 1>off my regimen. And with that being said, I noticed

0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I was scuffling down anthy and everything. Honey, this is

0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:26.360
<v Speaker 1>the point I'm showing out to the minute, I said, Dawn,

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:29.880
<v Speaker 1>have we lost sight of the vision? Did we forget

0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:33.440
<v Speaker 1>where we're going and what we're trying to do, which

0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:35.240
<v Speaker 1>leads me to what I want to talk to you

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:40.760
<v Speaker 1>today about. And that's the I n G in life,

0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 1>the ing. It's the part of the words that makes

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the verb award in action. You know, like you can drive,

0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:53.600
<v Speaker 1>but you can be driving, you can live and you

0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:56.400
<v Speaker 1>can be living. You can be dead or you could

0:03:56.400 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>be dying. You feel me. And the reason why that

0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:05.680
<v Speaker 1>that came top of mind is because you know, we

0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:09.600
<v Speaker 1>have our social media page, Vitamin D Dawn Day, and

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>primarily Jeremiah manages that, but I definitely peek in and

0:04:14.280 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 1>make sure you know, just to see what's going on,

0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 1>what you guys are talking about. So I have somebody

0:04:19.680 --> 0:04:23.280
<v Speaker 1>that made a comment under a recent video. The title

0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:26.600
<v Speaker 1>of it is growing It's Dawn, be who you are

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:30.479
<v Speaker 1>so I can see you. And basically in the video,

0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about how we place expectations on people and

0:04:33.400 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 1>how that's not fair. And what happens with those expectations

0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:40.640
<v Speaker 1>is is that we need to whether than having signing

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 1>somebody up for something, we need to make room for

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:44.760
<v Speaker 1>them to show up as they are and then for

0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:47.920
<v Speaker 1>that person who's deciding to show up, be who you are,

0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 1>so I can see who you are or whomever, and

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:52.320
<v Speaker 1>then it can be a decision whether or not you

0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.400
<v Speaker 1>want to sign up. But half the time I feel

0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.479
<v Speaker 1>like we aren't being truthful with ourselves. So when we

0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.800
<v Speaker 1>step into different situations and relationships, it's hard to not

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.560
<v Speaker 1>the gate because we aren't even being authentic to who

0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:05.360
<v Speaker 1>we are. So how can any situation or any person

0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:08.919
<v Speaker 1>know how to react or to be active in that situation?

0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:12.800
<v Speaker 1>You feel me? So I had somebody to make a comment,

0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I guess as I was explaining my process of understanding

0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:18.120
<v Speaker 1>of how I want to make room for Dawn and

0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:20.200
<v Speaker 1>make room for other people to show up as they are.

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Her name is Elizabeth Honay. Now I say Honay because

0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.480
<v Speaker 1>it's like three wise um in her name. Mom, just

0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:31.640
<v Speaker 1>say Elizabeth. She made a comment, she says, I want

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:33.680
<v Speaker 1>to hear your story and how you got to this

0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 1>sense of healing your journey and what made such a

0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:42.560
<v Speaker 1>profound change. And I think when I first got it,

0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.359
<v Speaker 1>I was flattered. I was like, wow, you know I've arrived.

0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I got to this point where somebody is seeing me

0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:50.960
<v Speaker 1>and they're like yes, Dawn, Yes, And I know as

0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I've been saying on previous episodes, I'm like, I'm working

0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 1>on this level of vulnerability. I want to show up.

0:05:57.839 --> 0:06:00.280
<v Speaker 1>I want to make room. I also want to make

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:02.520
<v Speaker 1>it so that I can relate to you. So when

0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you about a product, if I'm telling you

0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:08.240
<v Speaker 1>about an idea, you know me. You know what I like,

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.039
<v Speaker 1>you know what I get into. So if I'm telling

0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:14.320
<v Speaker 1>you what's popping, you know that it's popping. So as

0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:17.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm evaluating, I'm thinking, like, wow, I got to this moment,

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:21.440
<v Speaker 1>the sense of the state of somebody saying while you're there,

0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:25.080
<v Speaker 1>And I had to humble myself a bed. I had

0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 1>to humble myself because I am reminded of the eye

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 1>in g in life, the whole thing, and realizing when

0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:37.200
<v Speaker 1>we think about arriving to a sense or place or destination,

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:42.040
<v Speaker 1>to me, that says it's over, it's done. But in life,

0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.719
<v Speaker 1>you're living. Do you understand it's not like you just

0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.760
<v Speaker 1>live no or lived. If you're still have breath in

0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 1>your body, you're living. You only lived past tense once

0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:55.479
<v Speaker 1>you're no longer here. So I guess with this process

0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:57.920
<v Speaker 1>and what's spawn about the fact that I'm talking about

0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:01.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, derailing and just engulfing and anything is that,

0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:05.880
<v Speaker 1>whether it's me working out, whether it's me changing my

0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 1>my fitness, whether you're dating in a relationship, you don't

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:13.680
<v Speaker 1>just do something and stop. So when people say, or

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:15.480
<v Speaker 1>when somebody can say, how did you get the sense

0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 1>of there? How did you arrive to that point? Well,

0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:19.600
<v Speaker 1>I like to change the narrative and say that I'm

0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:23.160
<v Speaker 1>constantly arriving. And I guess what's helping is that is

0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:26.520
<v Speaker 1>that I've been making space for Dawn, making room for doing.

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 1>And if I'm making room for Dawn, I know how

0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 1>to teach and treat myself. Now I can teach and

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>treat somebody else the right way, right because now we're

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:40.400
<v Speaker 1>operating a space of movement, of ability to move. And

0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.760
<v Speaker 1>I realized of how I'm at this space of healing.

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Is that grace is so important. A friend recently said

0:07:50.000 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 1>to me that grace is giving space catch it. Grace

0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>is giving space to move, to breathe, to exist. And

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm just wondering how often do we give our own

0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:11.480
<v Speaker 1>self space? Even for example, if you look at a

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:15.560
<v Speaker 1>plant that's in a pot, after so long, there comes

0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 1>to a point that the plant needs to be repotted,

0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:21.000
<v Speaker 1>to get into a different space, for more space. Because

0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:24.240
<v Speaker 1>the roots have now extended, the roots have grown, the

0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.800
<v Speaker 1>roots are needing to expand the same and such as life.

0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:30.320
<v Speaker 1>That's why I think it's so important not to move

0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.160
<v Speaker 1>around me so arrogant about stuff. I feel like you

0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:35.480
<v Speaker 1>know it all that you've been there, done that, you

0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:38.679
<v Speaker 1>know you sent it on the way back. Because each day,

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:41.880
<v Speaker 1>each moment is a process of learning, is a process

0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:44.480
<v Speaker 1>of healing. And that's why I think it's so important

0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:46.960
<v Speaker 1>that whatever you engage into, whether it be a job

0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:49.800
<v Speaker 1>and whether it be a relationship, let it be something

0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:51.800
<v Speaker 1>that you enjoy, so that you can be in the

0:08:51.960 --> 0:08:54.559
<v Speaker 1>doing of it, not looking at a point of saying

0:08:54.559 --> 0:08:57.160
<v Speaker 1>when it's done and it's a check mark. And now

0:08:57.200 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 1>that I'm over it, I realized with myself, I'm not

0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:03.400
<v Speaker 1>over me. So when you say, hey, Dawn, how did

0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:06.040
<v Speaker 1>you get to this sense of healing, It's because I'm

0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:12.920
<v Speaker 1>allowing myself space. And with this space, I'm allowing myself grace.

0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:19.479
<v Speaker 1>And with this grace, I'm allowing moments of just being existing,

0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 1>whatever I'm feeling in the moment, allow myself to feel.

0:09:24.400 --> 0:09:28.400
<v Speaker 1>But more importantly, see myself. See that's another thing that's

0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:31.600
<v Speaker 1>so amazing about space. Space not only gives you the

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 1>ability to move, but now you can see things from

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:38.720
<v Speaker 1>different angles, from different points of view. There's a different lighting,

0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:43.640
<v Speaker 1>there's a different elevation, there's a different clarity, there's a

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 1>different everything. Now, as far as learning my story, which

0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:51.920
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna have to stay here for a long time

0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:54.240
<v Speaker 1>because true, I can go on father out the video

0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:58.000
<v Speaker 1>over three decades now. But as you subscribe to Vitamin

0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>D with Dawn Day, which is of a born, every

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:04.080
<v Speaker 1>platform that you may listen to your favorite podcasts, you're

0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:07.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna get pieces of me. And what I realized is

0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:11.200
<v Speaker 1>what these pieces. Let let's let's be clear what these

0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:14.120
<v Speaker 1>pieces just as the same with you. There are different

0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:17.280
<v Speaker 1>shapes and sizes, they're different colors, they're different huges. You

0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:21.120
<v Speaker 1>put them in different life, different things happen. But when

0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>you put them together, that create this mosaic that is me.

0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:26.480
<v Speaker 1>That's not something that you can put in a box.

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 1>That's not something that subscribes to a certain area of

0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:32.320
<v Speaker 1>certain times on. It's just a dawn thing. And I

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:35.520
<v Speaker 1>realized that when I'm allonging space, I don't have to

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:38.240
<v Speaker 1>associate it to being something that is other than me.

0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:43.240
<v Speaker 1>It's just me, point blank period. And when I'm as

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm arriving to this sense because I'm not done yet.

0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:48.679
<v Speaker 1>There's so much more that I'm going to uncover that

0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:53.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to discover. I'm realizing that it's the journey

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 1>that is important. And you've heard me say this before

0:10:56.480 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 1>about my previous bar Berta Louis t Pow. The Arnie

0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:05.679
<v Speaker 1>is the experience, and the experience is the journey. So

0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 1>when we talk about this whole notion of healing, let's

0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:15.920
<v Speaker 1>just focus on the eye and gee, I bet if

0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:20.360
<v Speaker 1>we just look in our life and in all areas

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.560
<v Speaker 1>and see where are we doing the ing in it?

0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Are we loving? Are we enjoying? Are we breathing? Are

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:39.320
<v Speaker 1>we being? Are we seeing? Are we believing? Contemplate, team, surviving, thriving.

0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to know what's your I n G for life?

0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:48.280
<v Speaker 1>What are you doing? If you find yourself in a

0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:50.600
<v Speaker 1>space that you're not doing anything? I just want to

0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:54.360
<v Speaker 1>ask you why, Not to judge, but just why. Because

0:11:54.880 --> 0:11:58.000
<v Speaker 1>this time that we're here on this earth is limited.

0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:03.520
<v Speaker 1>That's why we're all special offers. We're only here for

0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:09.400
<v Speaker 1>a limited time only, and I think oftentimes, probably the

0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:11.360
<v Speaker 1>moment we got out of the womb, we've been in

0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:14.679
<v Speaker 1>this race, you know, this race to a destination, this

0:12:14.920 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 1>race to grow up, trying to get to the next thing,

0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:19.719
<v Speaker 1>to be the next thing, to see the next thing,

0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:22.760
<v Speaker 1>to achieve the next thing, rather than just being the

0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:25.920
<v Speaker 1>thing and the only thing that I say about that.

0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I love the idea of the movement. I love the

0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:33.520
<v Speaker 1>idea of keep moving forward. But it's something about when

0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:36.080
<v Speaker 1>you see that destination that you think it's a moment

0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 1>of stopping. And I think that that's what you get

0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:42.960
<v Speaker 1>caught up at because as I'm saying, or as I

0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 1>mentioned earlier, and I'm saying, my journey as far as

0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 1>eating right or eating for my body that is nourishing

0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 1>my body and working out, you know, oftentimes we think

0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>we're going to get to a destination that it stops, like, Okay,

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna release this amount of weight, I'm gonna get fit,

0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:58.480
<v Speaker 1>and that's it. I'm not gonna eat healthy anymore and

0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:01.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna work out. But that's not how it works.

0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:05.560
<v Speaker 1>You got to maintain that. No more difference than if

0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.559
<v Speaker 1>you're in a relationship you're courting the person that you're interesting,

0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:10.719
<v Speaker 1>you're dating them, you're treating them nice, you're loving them.

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:12.640
<v Speaker 1>You don't just get them and get in a relationship

0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:17.960
<v Speaker 1>and then you just stop. No, you decide to play

0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:21.040
<v Speaker 1>a professional sport. You don't just train one day and

0:13:21.080 --> 0:13:23.800
<v Speaker 1>then you decide to stop training. No, you continue to

0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:27.600
<v Speaker 1>train and understand how important it is to train every day,

0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 1>hence the training sessions. So why do we look at

0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:34.440
<v Speaker 1>it any different when it comes to our lives? Why

0:13:34.559 --> 0:13:36.560
<v Speaker 1>do we look at it when we finally get to

0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:41.040
<v Speaker 1>this place? And perhaps that's even why gratitude is so important,

0:13:41.960 --> 0:13:45.040
<v Speaker 1>because what do I say, The more grateful you are,

0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:48.760
<v Speaker 1>the more things you have to be grateful for. Hey,

0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:52.400
<v Speaker 1>this is your girl's girly strawberry. How are you doing? Hi? Everybody,

0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:58.719
<v Speaker 1>this is jad member coming to you from the viting. Indeed,

0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:06.200
<v Speaker 1>life keep shining down, keep shining. Oftentimes, as we're speeding

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:08.920
<v Speaker 1>to the next thing in life, we forget the moment

0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 1>of the now. We lose focus of the moment of

0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>the now because we'll get so caught up by trying

0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:17.920
<v Speaker 1>to catch the next thing that we can't even understand

0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:21.240
<v Speaker 1>the gratitude of this thing. To appreciate what we are now.

0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:26.000
<v Speaker 1>So what we get depressed? We we we have anxiety,

0:14:26.440 --> 0:14:30.960
<v Speaker 1>there's anger, there's resentment, all the things that don't serve us,

0:14:31.520 --> 0:14:36.600
<v Speaker 1>let alone, that don't even deserve us. But not realizing

0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.880
<v Speaker 1>that it was a choice, a choice of whether or

0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:42.760
<v Speaker 1>not we decided to show this type of gratitude, because

0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:45.720
<v Speaker 1>gratitude to have your slowed down a bit, Gratitude to

0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.520
<v Speaker 1>have you look around a bit, Gratitude to have you

0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:53.000
<v Speaker 1>just breathe a bit because you're realized that you're living

0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:56.680
<v Speaker 1>the days that you want prayed for. You kind of

0:14:56.680 --> 0:15:01.240
<v Speaker 1>get a different evaluation of where you're going, but more importantly,

0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:03.720
<v Speaker 1>you get a more of appreciation of where you're being.

0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:08.600
<v Speaker 1>So where are you in your life right now? Is

0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:13.840
<v Speaker 1>it someplace that you can be proud of? I'm sure

0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 1>if you decided to put an e D on it

0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:20.040
<v Speaker 1>or a period, I can't imagine how exciting that is.

0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Because once you stop, it's done. What joy comes from that? Yes,

0:15:29.080 --> 0:15:33.480
<v Speaker 1>the faint memory of being loved, but imagine to be loving,

0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:36.840
<v Speaker 1>to be in the process, to be living, to be

0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:43.480
<v Speaker 1>being That's beautiful. And I just want to make sure

0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:47.240
<v Speaker 1>that you stay in the eye in g and your life.

0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Don't put too much pressure on where you gotta be.

0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Just know where you're going, understand where you're being, but

0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.600
<v Speaker 1>reside in the now in a allow it to be

0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:04.440
<v Speaker 1>the gift. That's where the magic is, that's where the

0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:09.720
<v Speaker 1>power is, that's where the light is. More importantly, that's

0:16:09.800 --> 0:16:15.760
<v Speaker 1>where you are. So in this space of growing and healing,

0:16:18.320 --> 0:16:24.920
<v Speaker 1>you realize there's a sense of peace because there's no

0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:28.800
<v Speaker 1>anxiety or anxiousness that you have about where you're supposed

0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:32.960
<v Speaker 1>to be at. There are no regretsive where you've been.

0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:40.320
<v Speaker 1>There's just the appreciation of right now because you know

0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:45.280
<v Speaker 1>you can doubt them all right, it can be over

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:55.480
<v Speaker 1>right now. And if that were the case, can you

0:16:55.520 --> 0:17:04.560
<v Speaker 1>say that you lift? Are you living? Wow? I guess

0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:07.480
<v Speaker 1>they just worked up some emotions of just coming back

0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:12.159
<v Speaker 1>from Detroit and being at a funeral and it's just

0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:15.920
<v Speaker 1>my god. Can you be in there now? And can

0:17:15.960 --> 0:17:22.000
<v Speaker 1>you live? Huh? Can you take your pieces together and

0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:26.520
<v Speaker 1>make your peace? Can you grasp the idea that you're

0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:29.760
<v Speaker 1>here for a limited time, So therefore you are a

0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:35.639
<v Speaker 1>special offer, not meant for discounts, more so for appreciation

0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:39.800
<v Speaker 1>and value, value enough to give space. So therefore you

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:44.320
<v Speaker 1>lend yourself grace. Can you get it in the now?

0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Are you living in the now? That's the eye in

0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:57.679
<v Speaker 1>g So, Elizabeth, you said, how did you get to

0:17:57.720 --> 0:18:03.240
<v Speaker 1>this sense of healing? I guess because I'm just staying

0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:08.879
<v Speaker 1>with doing it. I never thought about what it looks like,

0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:11.280
<v Speaker 1>because I guess, just like with anything, you kind of

0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:13.760
<v Speaker 1>want to get better, you want to get further. I

0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 1>can just tell you right now, I'm just gonna continue

0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:22.439
<v Speaker 1>to to work on expanding my space for me, my

0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:28.040
<v Speaker 1>space for other people, and then allowing myself to decide

0:18:28.080 --> 0:18:30.479
<v Speaker 1>whether or not I'm going to choose to sign up

0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:33.680
<v Speaker 1>for it, because it's something about that space that allows

0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:37.080
<v Speaker 1>you to have your own standing, your own power. That's

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:40.480
<v Speaker 1>what that space allows you. It allows you to see

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.680
<v Speaker 1>things from various angles. It allows you to take your time,

0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:47.640
<v Speaker 1>it allows you to breathe. That's what the space permits

0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:50.760
<v Speaker 1>for you. And so that's what I'm giving to myself,

0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.840
<v Speaker 1>And that's how I guess I'm arriving to the sense

0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:59.000
<v Speaker 1>of healing. I'm allowing it to be a process. I'm

0:18:59.000 --> 0:19:02.840
<v Speaker 1>showing it grace and and realizing I'm figuring it out

0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:06.480
<v Speaker 1>as I go and I'm also realizing with this level

0:19:06.480 --> 0:19:13.159
<v Speaker 1>of grace, there's a sense of love. And to me,

0:19:16.760 --> 0:19:19.000
<v Speaker 1>what love means to me is that you don't give

0:19:19.119 --> 0:19:23.000
<v Speaker 1>up on love. Now, there may be a different ways

0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:27.919
<v Speaker 1>that you handle it, but you don't give up on love,

0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:32.520
<v Speaker 1>especially not loving on yourself. And with that being said,

0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:35.680
<v Speaker 1>of giving yourself grace and knowing that you change, knowing

0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.800
<v Speaker 1>that different things interest you, knowing that things not everyone,

0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:41.240
<v Speaker 1>and everything deserves to be in your life, but allowing

0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:45.640
<v Speaker 1>the space for it to move, that's a different kind

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:48.560
<v Speaker 1>of love. And I think it's a beautiful thing. And

0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:53.119
<v Speaker 1>we can all get to that space literally and enjoy

0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:57.439
<v Speaker 1>that space of love. We can all see that, we

0:19:57.480 --> 0:20:00.760
<v Speaker 1>can all be that, we can all feel that. But

0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:04.359
<v Speaker 1>that's the I energy of life. I don't want to

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:08.560
<v Speaker 1>wait to a finite destination because when it's time for

0:20:08.600 --> 0:20:10.840
<v Speaker 1>that destination and I'm going and I'm not here, but

0:20:11.160 --> 0:20:13.359
<v Speaker 1>as I'm still living, I still want my I n G.

0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.479
<v Speaker 1>I still want to do everything. I still want to

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:21.919
<v Speaker 1>be experiencing as if it's a new thing, right. I

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:23.880
<v Speaker 1>don't want it to be mendane. I wanted to be

0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:26.800
<v Speaker 1>feeling refreshed. I wanted to excite me. I wanted to

0:20:27.000 --> 0:20:30.040
<v Speaker 1>give me joy and allow me that piece. And I

0:20:30.040 --> 0:20:32.159
<v Speaker 1>guess I want that for you too. Now, I guess

0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I know I do. That's why I'm sharing it with you.

0:20:35.720 --> 0:20:38.159
<v Speaker 1>That's why I'm doing what it is that I do

0:20:39.840 --> 0:20:44.520
<v Speaker 1>because I want that for everyone. And I guess you said, well,

0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:48.199
<v Speaker 1>how did you get to this sense of healing? A

0:20:48.320 --> 0:20:52.600
<v Speaker 1>major thing that I have to contribute it to. It's vulnerability.

0:20:54.119 --> 0:20:58.159
<v Speaker 1>If I hadn't been vulnerable enough to share that, perhaps

0:20:58.200 --> 0:21:00.560
<v Speaker 1>there was a time that I placed the expectation on people,

0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:03.679
<v Speaker 1>whether than giving them space and room to show up

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:06.000
<v Speaker 1>as they are, you would not have been able to connect.

0:21:07.520 --> 0:21:14.439
<v Speaker 1>Vulnerability is everything, Vulnerability is power. Vulnerability is your source

0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:20.160
<v Speaker 1>of power, your source of connection. I guess we gotta

0:21:20.240 --> 0:21:24.439
<v Speaker 1>ask ourselves if we want to be vulnerable. That's another

0:21:24.480 --> 0:21:27.800
<v Speaker 1>thing that I'm showing up as I say, Wait, abundance,

0:21:28.280 --> 0:21:37.320
<v Speaker 1>that's for a lifetime. Have vulnerability and gratitude. Yeah, because

0:21:37.359 --> 0:21:39.880
<v Speaker 1>gratitude allows me to realize. As I was even pulling

0:21:39.960 --> 0:21:41.960
<v Speaker 1>up today, I just had to remind myself, I said,

0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.280
<v Speaker 1>doing God, dog A, you're walking up in the studio

<v Speaker 1>I'm still going on, and I'm still going to the gratitude,

0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:04.400
<v Speaker 1>and I'm still making room, and I'm still doing vulnerability,

0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:06.119
<v Speaker 1>and I'm still opening up so that you can connect

0:22:06.160 --> 0:22:08.640
