1
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: Hey, this is Samantha, and this is Annie, and welcome

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,400
Speaker 1: to stuff. Mom never told you of production of I

3
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: Heart Radio. It's time for another Monday many in this

4
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 1: our quarantine times where Samantha and I are coming coming

5
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: at you from. I'm in my closet slash office right

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,199
Speaker 1: and I am in again my dining room. I have

7
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 1: asked all of my neighbors to not do laundry play music.

8
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,279
Speaker 1: Although those cut off time was at four, so if

9
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: you hear it, it's at four now. Yeah, we're running

10
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 1: a little behind, as we're usual. Also, I'm hopefully this

11
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,480
Speaker 1: recording is gonna sound much better than the last one

12
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: because I may have not understood what I was doing

13
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: on technology. Once again, every day it's a learning curve

14
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: for all works in progress. Samantha, I'm pretty about like

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: writing recording on a poster board and putting it in

16
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: my window. And that's awesome what that does. If anything,

17
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: probably would people just be like throwing stuff in my window.

18
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: What are you recording? I feel like that my bringing

19
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: on like antagonizers and trolls. Yeah, I think you're right.

20
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: I think you're right. So for today, we wanted to

21
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: talk about productivity during this time of staying in and

22
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: how how would you say you're feeling about productivity, Samantha, Right,

23
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: like I think with everyone else, Um, I'm having this

24
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: challenge of funding a balance and making sure I'm doing

25
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: what I need to, but at the same time not

26
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: pressuring myself to do what I need to, because this

27
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: is not trying in a weird, difficult time, so acknowledging

28
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: that that is a thing. But as well as I

29
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: do feel kind of yucky when it's been day three

30
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: of no shower, same pants, same shirt, where are you

31
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: in part? Right now? I took a shower today, I

32
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: put on a little makeup. I even put on new pants.

33
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,959
Speaker 1: It's not real pants still pajama pants, still pajama pants. Um.

34
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: I did some laundry, so, you know, trying to do

35
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: some things. But overall, I think it's just giving myself

36
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: a leeway and understanding it's not it's not going to

37
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: be normal. This is not going to be this is

38
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:29,239
Speaker 1: not normal, and it's okay to not have a normal

39
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: routine all the time. Although I know I say this

40
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 1: as a single woman living by myself and having the

41
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,839
Speaker 1: space to uh create my own schedule as well. Yeah,

42
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 1: and that's an important caveat as we're both single and

43
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 1: we don't have little children to take care of or

44
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: even bigger children no children, and that definitely changes the

45
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 1: conversation when we're talking about productivity. And I know some

46
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: listeners have written in about it, and I'm sure all

47
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: of us have seen it on social media where there's

48
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: almost two sides of it like, oh, take this time.

49
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: You know what, Isaac Newton did this when he was

50
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: in quarantine and Shakespeare did this, and then there are

51
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: other people that are like, this is a terrible time

52
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: and you're anxious, don't do anything, and so sort of

53
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: going back to what you're talking about finding that balance.

54
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: And I know as women, we've talked about this before,

55
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 1: there is for a lot of us, there is this pressure,

56
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: both internal and external. I have to be productive and

57
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 1: I have to do this, this and this, and in

58
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: these times, these uncertain times when like in my case,

59
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: I'm in this small apartment and it time just becomes like,

60
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: well when is my time off? Is there? Does time

61
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: even matter anymore? Do weekends or bega? Thing Like it's

62
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: almost like you or I feel guilty for not doing more,

63
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I feel like I'm doing

64
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: a lot. It's just it's all messed up and messed together,

65
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: I feel like right, and I'm very analytical, So for me,

66
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: a part of my thing is listening to the anxiety

67
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: and the inner voices for lack of better terms of

68
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 1: how I'm dealing with all of the chaos that's happening.

69
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: And for me, a big forward for me is the

70
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: fact that I can take my anxiety. I can actually

71
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: feel it coming on and I know what's happening, and

72
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 1: having the time to step back and being able to

73
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: acknowledge it, try to do my self care things that

74
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 1: I need to do for it um and in order

75
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: to come back to what it would be normalized for me,

76
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: and then being able to manage all of those things.

77
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: And I think that's a really big thing that all

78
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:53,239
Speaker 1: of our listeners need to remembers different days and different

79
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,119
Speaker 1: anxieties are different. Like depressive moments are going to happen,

80
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 1: whether it is because you are fearful for a loved one,

81
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: for yourself, or because you're alone or because you're not

82
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: you feel like you're not doing enough. You need to

83
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: like actually internal not internalized, but acknowledge what's going on

84
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: inside of you and here and listen to your body

85
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 1: and listen to the mental health part of you and

86
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: kind of take a step back and recognize some things

87
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: maybe even more amplified because of the situation, and to

88
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: take a step back and take that breath that you need,

89
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 1: or take that walk around the home not necessarily outside,

90
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: or or take a moment like sometimes I just need

91
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: to take a nap, or do a crossword puzzle, do

92
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: a meditation if you have the opportunity, or if you

93
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: need to reach out to someone that that's something that

94
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: is really important for you to do as well, no

95
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: matter what, is to be able to hear your body here,

96
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: your mental health, and your stability as part of this. Yeah,

97
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 1: and I think a big thing for for me, a

98
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: lot of people I know has been just coming to

99
00:05:54,040 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: terms with no one has well, yeah, this is on precedented,

100
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: all right, And I can't hold myself to the standards

101
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: I was holding myself to before. And it's also been

102
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 1: a really enlightening experience. And because I'm always so go, go, go, go,

103
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: go go go, uh and having to adjust to this

104
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: new lifestyle, but also what does that mean for for

105
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 1: my mental health? And um, why was I so go

106
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: go go, go go anyway. Um, so we're all working

107
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: through it, just like all of you are working through it.

108
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: We did have some tips that we've seen or have

109
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 1: worked for us that we wanted to share right um

110
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: and one of the tips we want to give you

111
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: is give yourself space. Again. This is kind of that

112
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: acknowledgement of you're not gonna be able to hit all

113
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: of your expectations or even all your tasks, or even

114
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: at all your wants, and some days they're gonna be

115
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: productive and others not much, not at all, maybe and

116
00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 1: making time for self care stuff and just some mindless stuff.

117
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: And for me, mindless stuff means again, I'm watching a

118
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 1: lot more Harry Potter, and I'm watching all of the

119
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 1: Marvel stuff, and I'm also doing a lot of word searches.

120
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: And I have enjoyed getting on social media in the

121
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: sense of doing house party, which is that little, uh

122
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: fun app that I get to play games with my friends,

123
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: so any and I've played games on here, or I

124
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: will play Words with friends, which I have not done

125
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: and forever. My friend just scored ninety six points and

126
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: I'm very mad at him right now. But so that's

127
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: not so mindless but it is. It kind of takes

128
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: you away from whatever anxiety or whatever panic or chaos

129
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: is happening, and you can kind of step back. Yeah,

130
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: And I'm trying to reframe the way I think about it.

131
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: And you're being the most productive of taking care of

132
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: other people and taking care of yourself. So it's not

133
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: like you're not being productive. You just need to change

134
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: the way you think about it. So I'm to give

135
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,119
Speaker 1: you an update. My fan fiction is pages long, nine

136
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: that's amazing. And you sent me the Vampire movie and

137
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: Joe and I are about to put it up on

138
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: Joe my friend and I am about to put it

139
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: up on screen and watch it and it's full glory. Oh,

140
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: I want a full review after my amazing performance. Um

141
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: As that gift alone gave me some excitement. So it's

142
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: pretty good. And we did it in forty hours. I

143
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: can impress this enough. You don't know what the topic is.

144
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: They give you lines you have to say. You have

145
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: to write the script mostly though, and they give you

146
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: props you have to use. It's a whole thing. But anyway, um,

147
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: if you are looking to sort of get back more

148
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: routine in your life as much as you can giving

149
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,719
Speaker 1: yourself goals and a schedule, but also giving yourself flexibility

150
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: within that. It's obviously depends on what exactly your days

151
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: in general consist of. If you have kids, you're now

152
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 1: teaching and or a job, or are single and unemployed.

153
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 1: A lot of factors to take into account there. I've

154
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: seen a lot of going back to what you said, Samantha, UM,

155
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 1: changing clothes is a way to do this, UM, even

156
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: if it's into more but different loungewear, like you've got

157
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: your morning pajamas and your night pajamas. UM, showering, brushing

158
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: your hair. I'm just doing things to give you some

159
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: semblance of you know, I, well, there's different stages of

160
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: my time here happening right or giving someone of what

161
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: used to be UM. And if you find yourself constantly

162
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: getting derilled checking the news, make sure to unplug for

163
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: at least a few hours a day. Set aside all

164
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: of that social media set aside. And when I say

165
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: that I'm talking about Twitter, I'm talking about Facebook. I'm

166
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 1: talking about UM, well not Instagram necessarily hopefully those are

167
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: little more pictures. But uh, it does do well for

168
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: you to kind of step back again from everything that

169
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: seems like it's horrible and it's burning, the world is burning. Um,

170
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: maybe consolidate your news into a few segments or one

171
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: big segment, whatever is best for your personal mental health.

172
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: For me, I'm again trying to step back from social

173
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 1: media like that because I really get caught up in Twitter.

174
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: But I will go for like about thirty minutes of

175
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 1: looking at different point of views and so not instartied

176
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: picking and choosing, but at least getting mine in small

177
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: blurts that I can easily dismiss if I don't, I'm

178
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: I'm tired of it. Yeah, And this is something I've

179
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: seen so so, so so much in my friends, and

180
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: I've been trying to get them step away because they'll

181
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: text me in a panic like I just saw this

182
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: on rather than Twitter, and like, okay, yeah, I know.

183
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 1: I Just give yourself some face back from it because

184
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: it can really wear on you. It can really wear you.

185
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: UM And speaking of mental health, reaching out to folks

186
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: if you need it, and UM, trying to keep a

187
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 1: close eye on your own mental health. One of my

188
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: biggest worries about this is seeing this very thing and

189
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: the deteriorating mental health of some of my friends and

190
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: just this air of hopelessness and defeats and fear of death. Um.

191
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,599
Speaker 1: And as a country in a world, we're experiencing a

192
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 1: trauma right now. There's never been anything like this in

193
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 1: your lifetime. And that's a big deal. And it totally

194
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 1: makes sense if you're feeling depressed as a result of it.

195
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: But knowing what that is and finding ways to to

196
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: deal with it, to cope with it is so important.

197
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: And for those who do feel like this, uh, you know,

198
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: hopelessness and defeat or fear of death there, so any

199
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: of those things. Sometimes it's nice to concentrate on how

200
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: you can help then, not just on why everything's going wrong. Um.

201
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: For me, it's been a big thing because I have

202
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: so many people who are in the service industry that

203
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: I support the best that I can, whether it's ordering food,

204
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: tipping extra large. We have things in Atlanta, I'm sure

205
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: it's everywhere where. You can tip servers just by like

206
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: clicking on this link and it gives you a name

207
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: with their like PayPal or Venmo and giving a little

208
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 1: there or um. Not if you don't have money, because

209
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people don't have money, uh,

210
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 1: doing these little chickens with your friends is going to

211
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: help you when you're focusing something beyond yourself. It's always

212
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: nice to see if you're having a hard time and

213
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: you can't focus beyond yourself, ask to talk someone because

214
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: not only will you be hopefully could be able to

215
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: get a distraction, but you can kind of talk to

216
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: each other off alleged me I get, you know, but

217
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: put it into better words. I know um for me

218
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: sometimes even before this was happening, I am a very

219
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: depressive personality and anxiety written person that I will shrink

220
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: into myself. And I know that when it's when I

221
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: feel hopeless and just very melancholy, that there's something wrong.

222
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: So therefore I just have to reach out to someone

223
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: that I trust. And we've talked about this so many

224
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 1: times about self care. But I have to recognize again

225
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: as I was talking about before, you have to recognize

226
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: your triggers. You have to recognize the warning signs in

227
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: your body and listen to your body, listen to your

228
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: mental health and actually reaching out because it makes a difference.

229
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: And unfortunately, I actually two things. Unfortunately, it is a

230
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: time that people are getting sometimes can get self absorbed

231
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 1: and caught it in their own dramas, But a lot

232
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: of times I've seen amazing things with great stories with

233
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: news with happy things and or people who want to

234
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: do more so reading stories about good up where these

235
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: a great site? Um. I know that John Krasinski just

236
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: did uh some good news like YouTube station and that's fantastic,

237
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: and and Fox UH Network with I Heeart did the

238
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: concert and I got to see the clip of the

239
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: Backstreet Boys doing us all and it was fantastic. Um.

240
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: Of course, there's some things that are completely off key

241
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: and you're like, hey, celebrities, stop talking. Sure, so ignore that. Um,

242
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: but you know, it's it's okay to be distracted, and

243
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: it's okay to go there, and it's okay to listen

244
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: to yourself and reach out to people for help because

245
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: you absolutely should and need to do that. Yeah. Yeah,

00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:59,920
