WEBVTT - I Choose...Me

0:00:01.720 --> 0:00:10.080
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to I Choose Me with Jenny Garth. Oh okay,

0:00:10.360 --> 0:00:13.320
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, this is so exciting you guys. Today's

0:00:13.360 --> 0:00:16.479
<v Speaker 1>the day. Today is the very first day of my

0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:20.200
<v Speaker 1>very own podcast, I Choose Me. I have been working

0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:23.360
<v Speaker 1>and working towards this for so long just to get

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.799
<v Speaker 1>to this very moment with you, and you have no

0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:29.680
<v Speaker 1>idea how grateful I am that you are here with me,

0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 1>that you chose to listen today. Look at that, you guys,

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:36.520
<v Speaker 1>just made your very first choice on the I Choose

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Me podcast. Woo celebrate that. This is a crazy statistic.

0:00:43.040 --> 0:00:46.720
<v Speaker 1>I heard we make like thirty five thousand choices a day.

0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:52.640
<v Speaker 1>Think about that. That is a lot of choices. I mean,

0:00:52.920 --> 0:00:56.200
<v Speaker 1>we make so many choices before we even get out

0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>of bed. I've made a lot of choices, some good,

0:01:00.200 --> 0:01:04.400
<v Speaker 1>some bad. But I'm going to go on record here

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:08.039
<v Speaker 1>and say that I don't really believe in bad choices anymore,

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:14.319
<v Speaker 1>because if I didn't make choices that were bad or

0:01:14.560 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, that had some negative consequence, I wouldn't have

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:21.320
<v Speaker 1>learned anything. I wouldn't have gotten the messages that I'm

0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:24.479
<v Speaker 1>supposed to get to move forward to, Like the next level.

0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:29.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, I want this podcast to be a safe

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 1>space for us to share with each other, to get vulnerable,

0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>to talk about our choices, our good ones, our bad ones.

0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:41.680
<v Speaker 1>And that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to

0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:45.560
<v Speaker 1>share my choices with you, the highs and the lows

0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:47.360
<v Speaker 1>of my life, and we are going to take a

0:01:47.440 --> 0:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>look at them. Because if you think about it, it's

0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:55.000
<v Speaker 1>pretty cool to sit back and sort of examine the

0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>choices that you've made in your life. Right to think

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.120
<v Speaker 1>was that a good choice? Was that a bad choice?

0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>What did I learn from that? Would I make that

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:10.160
<v Speaker 1>same choice again? My answer to that is usually going

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 1>to be yes, because, like I said, I don't believe

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:15.400
<v Speaker 1>there are any bad choices. Were exactly where we're supposed

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 1>to be. But I want us to start sharing because

0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 1>I feel like we're all walking around with these secrets,

0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, secrets from our lives that were afraid to

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 1>share with other people, were embarrassed to share with other people.

0:02:35.440 --> 0:02:38.520
<v Speaker 1>But the fact is we are all going through the

0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:42.800
<v Speaker 1>same things. We are all making very similar choices out there.

0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:48.120
<v Speaker 1>We just have different circumstances. So that in itself is

0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 1>going to connect us on this podcast because we're all

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:55.720
<v Speaker 1>in this together, and I want you to feel comfortable

0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.480
<v Speaker 1>knowing that it's okay to share your choices, and I

0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:02.680
<v Speaker 1>want you to be unapologetic about them, about who you

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:05.520
<v Speaker 1>are and who you are meant to be, and I

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>want us to start loving ourselves just a little bit

0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:12.000
<v Speaker 1>more every day. But first, I want to explain where

0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:16.040
<v Speaker 1>this podcast came from. The genesis of it all. The

0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 1>title is a little weird. I choose me, But in

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 1>order to explain that, I'm going to ask you to

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 1>rewind all the way back to nineteen ninety five. That

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.720
<v Speaker 1>was almost thirty years ago. If you can wrap your

0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:34.520
<v Speaker 1>brains around that. AnyWho, for all of you Beverly Hills

0:03:34.560 --> 0:03:37.240
<v Speaker 1>nine of two and zero fans out there, and you

0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:40.520
<v Speaker 1>know who you are, you are probably going to know

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 1>where I'm going with this. My most memorable line in

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:48.840
<v Speaker 1>all of the ten years of the show was on

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:54.480
<v Speaker 1>season five, episode thirty, when my character Kelly Taylor Hello,

0:03:55.960 --> 0:04:02.040
<v Speaker 1>she had to choose between two of the hottest, most

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:07.680
<v Speaker 1>popular guys on television at that time, Brandon Walsh and

0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:15.119
<v Speaker 1>Dylan McKay. I mean, that is a tough choice. Jessica

0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Klein was a friend of mine. She was our writer

0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>our producer, and she wrote that line for me, and

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:28.000
<v Speaker 1>it was just three little words, and I'll be honest,

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really understand them when I was saying them.

0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:35.360
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really get it. And I just was like, Okay,

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 1>if you think this is what I should say, then

0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.160
<v Speaker 1>I will say it. I was just trying to do

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:41.880
<v Speaker 1>my job, you know, And I didn't understand the poignancy

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:45.960
<v Speaker 1>of that line. I was twenty one, maybe twenty two

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.360
<v Speaker 1>years old, and I was just sort of winging it

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:51.720
<v Speaker 1>and making it up. Fast forward to now, like now,

0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:55.160
<v Speaker 1>while I'm grown up, we're all growing up still, it's happening.

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm growing up right now in front of you. I

0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of think like, if you're not growing, you're slowing.

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:05.080
<v Speaker 1>That's my motto. If you're not growing, you're slowing. But anyway,

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:08.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm about to get really vulnerable with you guys. A

0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:12.839
<v Speaker 1>few years ago, it was like twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen,

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:18.040
<v Speaker 1>before the pandemic, I was feeling really lost. I was

0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, life was just moving forward, you know,

0:05:22.000 --> 0:05:25.040
<v Speaker 1>years were going by going by, but I didn't know

0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 1>what I was moving toward. I didn't feel like I

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 1>had that goal, you know what I wanted to do next.

0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:37.440
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever felt that way? I have three girls.

0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:40.719
<v Speaker 1>I love them so so much, but they were getting

0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:45.320
<v Speaker 1>older and they honestly just didn't need me as much.

0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 1>I was a pary I mean, I was a piry

0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:53.719
<v Speaker 1>empty nester, if you know what I mean. I was bored.

0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I was depressed, I was restless. I was frustrated with

0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>my career. I wasn't getting the roles that I wanted

0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 1>to get. I didn't feel like I was giving anything

0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:07.000
<v Speaker 1>to the world. I was doing a lot of waiting,

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:11.600
<v Speaker 1>and I didn't know which direction. I didn't know where

0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:14.360
<v Speaker 1>to go or what I wanted. And so many people

0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:18.400
<v Speaker 1>talk so much about purpose. I wanted to find my purpose.

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I realized that I've spent my life just going with

0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:26.800
<v Speaker 1>the flow. I never had a plan. I never wanted

0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.040
<v Speaker 1>to be an actress. I never wanted to be a mom.

0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I never thought about my wedding day and what that

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.839
<v Speaker 1>was going to look like. I just I never planned

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:37.279
<v Speaker 1>for things. I never dreamt about what I wanted. I

0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:40.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't go to college, and I never had that sort

0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 1>of time to lay out my life and think about

0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:48.400
<v Speaker 1>what I wanted to achieve. It was a whirlwind you know,

0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>my life, and I just never had that opportunity to

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:56.279
<v Speaker 1>stop and think about what do I want? And I

0:06:56.320 --> 0:07:01.200
<v Speaker 1>had so much, you know, at that point, I was successful,

0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and I had a home, and you know, I had

0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 1>this happy, seemingly happy life, and I felt selfish for

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:12.160
<v Speaker 1>wanting more, honestly, like I didn't think that I was

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:20.160
<v Speaker 1>allowed to want more. I was paralyzed, basically with uncertainty

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>and confusion and fear, fear of making a deliberate choice

0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and then not having whatever it took to make that

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 1>choice happen. Like I didn't want to fail. I was

0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:46.080
<v Speaker 1>afraid of failing. Growing up, my mom had every self

0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:49.640
<v Speaker 1>help book ever written, every fad diet book ever written.

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:53.920
<v Speaker 1>They lined the shelves in our house, and I gotta

0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 1>be honest, I was a little embarrassed when people would

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.200
<v Speaker 1>come over and they would see all the self help books.

0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I would be like, yeah, those were my don't worry

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:04.200
<v Speaker 1>about it. But I started to kind of look through

0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:07.600
<v Speaker 1>those books from time to time, and eventually I started

0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:10.160
<v Speaker 1>to read some of them, like from cover to cover

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Jonathan Livingston's Seagull, I'm Okay, You're Okay, The Road Less Traveled,

0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:19.320
<v Speaker 1>My favorite was a book called How to Feed Your

0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:22.960
<v Speaker 1>Family on twelve dollars a Day. It was this little paperback,

0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:26.320
<v Speaker 1>green cover book. It had no pictures in it of

0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.360
<v Speaker 1>any food, so you really had to make it up

0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:32.599
<v Speaker 1>in your mind. But there was this banana bread recipe

0:08:32.600 --> 0:08:35.480
<v Speaker 1>that I used to make all the time, and it

0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:37.960
<v Speaker 1>worked very well when I wanted to bribe my sisters

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:40.640
<v Speaker 1>to do something for me. So that banana bread recipe

0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 1>was definitely worth it. But there was this other book,

0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:48.720
<v Speaker 1>this other book about astrology, and you know, it like

0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:51.199
<v Speaker 1>broke down your birthday and what you were going to

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:53.280
<v Speaker 1>be like or what you should be like on your birthday.

0:08:53.320 --> 0:09:01.439
<v Speaker 1>Mine April third said I was strong willed, creative, sometimes stubborn, impatient,

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:05.440
<v Speaker 1>fiercely loyal. All of these things they were true. But

0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:08.360
<v Speaker 1>then at the end it said I was destined to

0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 1>be a leader, a public figure, and it said famous

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:14.559
<v Speaker 1>you guys, And I was like, this is me, Like

0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:17.400
<v Speaker 1>at twelve, what, No, I don't know what that's not.

0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:19.800
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea what they're talking about. I don't

0:09:19.840 --> 0:09:22.240
<v Speaker 1>know anything. I'm just a little girl who likes to

0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.719
<v Speaker 1>ride her pink dirt bike through the cemetery and talk

0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:27.760
<v Speaker 1>to the dead. People. I mean, I spent a lot

0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:33.440
<v Speaker 1>of time alone you guys, but I just didn't get it.

0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think like I was going to lead anybody

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:39.200
<v Speaker 1>to anything. I couldn't even figure out what I wanted.

0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:44.680
<v Speaker 1>And as time passed, life happened in a bizarre turn

0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.920
<v Speaker 1>of events. I did become famous, I did become a

0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 1>public figure, and so here I was still not knowing

0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:57.080
<v Speaker 1>what I wanted. I had this you know, life, and

0:09:57.120 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I was supposedly fulfilling my fate according to that book.

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:03.360
<v Speaker 1>I was a wife, a mother, an actress, a producer.

0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:07.760
<v Speaker 1>I was doing all the things. But I still felt incomplete.

0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Somehow I felt unfulfilled in a way that's really hard

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:18.319
<v Speaker 1>to explain. I still didn't have my purpose. COVID came,

0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, that was a wild time, but you know what,

0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>it allowed me to slow down. It allowed me to

0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:31.800
<v Speaker 1>be alone a little, to think and to be introspective.

0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I started to take stock of my life, like where

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:40.200
<v Speaker 1>had I come from, what had I been through? My

0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Midwestern roots, my parents who were both educators. I started

0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:46.160
<v Speaker 1>to just really look at all of that. And then

0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:51.680
<v Speaker 1>I remember that damn astrology book, and something just kept

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:55.760
<v Speaker 1>urging me to look back in order to move forward.

0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 1>And when I looked back, I kept seeing that line

0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:03.800
<v Speaker 1>come up for me, Jessica Klein's line, I choose me

0:11:06.559 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>so weird. And then I started hearing it around me.

0:11:11.320 --> 0:11:14.760
<v Speaker 1>You know. I would meet women and they would tell

0:11:14.800 --> 0:11:19.920
<v Speaker 1>me how Kelly Taylor had chosen herself, and in that moment,

0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:24.200
<v Speaker 1>they realized that they could choose themselves. And I started

0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:26.800
<v Speaker 1>to see the significance of it and the impact that

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:29.880
<v Speaker 1>it had had on so many people. The phrase started

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:33.640
<v Speaker 1>becoming part of my everyday vocabulary. I was reading it,

0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I was writing it, I was saying it, and you

0:11:36.840 --> 0:11:39.880
<v Speaker 1>know what, I started believing it. I started living it

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 1>with little things like throughout my day, my choices about

0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:48.680
<v Speaker 1>being healthy, about going to work out, about eating better,

0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:53.319
<v Speaker 1>choosing better for myself. I started to choose myself more.

0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:57.679
<v Speaker 1>And then, you guys, like a light bulb in my head.

0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 1>I am telling you, I had that moment that Oprah

0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:05.600
<v Speaker 1>talks about that I had always wanted. I found my purpose.

0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I got a clear message that I was supposed to

0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:14.080
<v Speaker 1>use my voice to spread that message to teach people.

0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.120
<v Speaker 1>That is why I'm in your ears today. I am

0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:20.920
<v Speaker 1>here to tell you that it is okay to choose yourself.

0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:25.960
<v Speaker 1>It is okay to take time from doing everything for

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:32.320
<v Speaker 1>everybody and choose yourself to mentally, physically, emotionally, start turning

0:12:32.800 --> 0:12:35.959
<v Speaker 1>some of that love that we give everybody else, start

0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:39.840
<v Speaker 1>turning that inward just a little bit. I want you

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.120
<v Speaker 1>guys to know that taking care of yourself is an

0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:46.920
<v Speaker 1>opportunity for you to rediscover who you are, who you

0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:50.840
<v Speaker 1>want to be. It's an opportunity for you to regain

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:55.000
<v Speaker 1>your power. It is not selfish, and anybody that ever

0:12:55.040 --> 0:13:00.560
<v Speaker 1>tells you it is selfish, just walk away, because taking

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:03.280
<v Speaker 1>care of yourself is not a selfish act at all.

0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:06.760
<v Speaker 1>When you start taking time for yourself just even a

0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:10.679
<v Speaker 1>little bit more, you're going to see your life start

0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:15.440
<v Speaker 1>to unfold in the most beautiful, mind blowing ways, ways

0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:19.240
<v Speaker 1>that you were afraid to ever dream about. I promise you.

0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:24.040
<v Speaker 1>And we're never alone. That's a message that I want

0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:26.520
<v Speaker 1>you guys to know, because I felt alone a lot.

0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 1>But we're never alone because we always have us and

0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:35.640
<v Speaker 1>I never really understood that. So this is what I

0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 1>started to do. It may sound a little weird, but

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I started to look in the mirror. At first, I

0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:48.320
<v Speaker 1>would be like, oh, hi, Hello, who are you? I

0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know you. What do you want? This is weird?

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:56.600
<v Speaker 1>And then I started saying, hmm, you know what. I

0:13:56.679 --> 0:14:02.200
<v Speaker 1>love you. How about that? I started saying nice things

0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:04.600
<v Speaker 1>to myself in the mirror. I started to say, you

0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:08.320
<v Speaker 1>are beautiful, and at first I did not believe it.

0:14:08.720 --> 0:14:11.839
<v Speaker 1>But the more I said it, the more I believed it.

0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:16.320
<v Speaker 1>And I just kept doing it. And that led me

0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:19.840
<v Speaker 1>to sort of start talking to myself even when I

0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:24.160
<v Speaker 1>wasn't looking in the mirror, just like in everyday situations.

0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:27.480
<v Speaker 1>I would start talking to myself to that little girl,

0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.960
<v Speaker 1>that little innocent, totally scared girl who used to ride

0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:35.040
<v Speaker 1>her dirt bike. I would say, it's okay, You're okay,

0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:38.240
<v Speaker 1>we got this. I got you. I started to sort

0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:40.680
<v Speaker 1>of like be my own mommy in a weird way,

0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:45.120
<v Speaker 1>and I started to be my own best friend. I

0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:50.920
<v Speaker 1>started to love myself. I don't know. I would suggest

0:14:50.960 --> 0:14:53.920
<v Speaker 1>you start doing that. Look in the mirror, see that

0:14:53.960 --> 0:14:58.480
<v Speaker 1>little girl and tell her that you love her. And

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I promise you if you start doing that, like I said,

0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that's going to blow your mind. Here's how this is

0:15:05.800 --> 0:15:09.560
<v Speaker 1>going to work. Every week, we are going to talk

0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:12.080
<v Speaker 1>about choices. We're going to talk about your choices. We're

0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:15.720
<v Speaker 1>going to talk about my choices. I'm going to let

0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:18.920
<v Speaker 1>you in on a very intimate level. I'm going to

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:23.560
<v Speaker 1>bring some of my very favorite people onto the show,

0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 1>and We're going to talk about the choices that I've

0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:30.200
<v Speaker 1>made and what I've learned from them, and you will

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:33.680
<v Speaker 1>probably be able to relate even though our lives are

0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:37.240
<v Speaker 1>totally different, but you'll see you've probably made some of

0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:39.480
<v Speaker 1>the same choices I've made, or maybe you want to

0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.800
<v Speaker 1>make some of the choices I've made, and maybe that

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:44.360
<v Speaker 1>will help you, you know, to move forward. So we're

0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:47.720

<v Speaker 1>We're probably gonna end up having a lot of fun

0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:06.160
<v Speaker 1>along the way because some of my choices have been

0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>pretty crazy, little little out there, but like I said,

0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:13.040
<v Speaker 1>I learned a lot from them. And I want to

0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.640

<v Speaker 1>this message isn't enough for you, next time you go

0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:37.320
<v Speaker 1>on a plane and you hear that safety message, you know,

0:16:37.400 --> 0:16:40.200
<v Speaker 1>the one that nobody ever listens to where they tell

0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:43.240
<v Speaker 1>you to fasten your seatbelt, you know, and they also

0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:46.480
<v Speaker 1>tell you to put your oxygen mask on yourself first

0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:49.880
<v Speaker 1>before you help others. And that's what I want us

0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:53.000
<v Speaker 1>to do here together. I want us to put our

0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:57.920
