1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: When you have your next hurdle, remind yourself that you've

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: trained for this, this is what you're built for, this

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: is what you're here for, and never forget that in

4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: order to build yourself up, you have to break down first,

5
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,120
Speaker 1: So don't be afraid of that breakdown.

6
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: Hey everyone, Emily Evadi here bringing you another installment of

7
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: Turning the Page, a special five episode series from Hurdle,

8
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 2: a wellness focused podcast where I sit down with inspiring

9
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 2: individuals to talk about everything from their big wins to

10
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 2: how they've gotten through some of life's toughest moments. On

11
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 2: the show, you can expect vulnerability, motivation, and candid discussions

12
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 2: with everyone from top athletes to aspiring entrepreneurs on what

13
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 2: it really takes to follow your passions.

14
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 3: My mission is simple.

15
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 2: To inspire you to be your best self, move with intention,

16
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 2: and have some fun along the way. And that is

17
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 2: why I am here this week of all weeks, especially

18
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 2: in your ear five times. That's if you know you're

19
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: listening to this as they come out in the queue.

20
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:21,319
Speaker 3: Here's the deal.

21
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 2: I know, like I said yesterday in the episode with

22
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: Coach Bennett, that twenty twenty has had its fair share

23
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 2: of hardships. Some may even refer to it as a

24
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 2: dumpster fire. I get it, It's been a lot, but

25
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: we can do hard things and together we can get

26
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 2: through it all. And that's why I am reconnecting with

27
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 2: some of my favorite guests to date.

28
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 3: Not that I play favorites, but you get the gist.

29
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,639
Speaker 2: Some unbelievable humans to give you the inspiration you need

30
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 2: to keep on keeping on and start twenty twenty one

31
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: with a fresh perspective. Today, I am connecting with none

32
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 2: other then Jess Sims. She is a Peloton instructor, a

33
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 2: dear friend of mine, and this conversation and just Jess

34
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: period makes me so happy. We actually caught up irl

35
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 2: this past weekend over some delicious holiday themed drinks shout

36
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 2: out to the Garrett And you know, you know when

37
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: you just walk away from a conversation and you feel

38
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 2: happy and whole and good like, that is how Jess

39
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 2: makes me feel. I'm so grateful to have her in

40
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: my life, and there's just nothing better. I'm also one

41
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 2: of those people that really loves seeing my friends do

42
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: good and succeed, and I get no greater joy than

43
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 2: hyping them up and cheering them on and just just

44
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: makes me feel excited because I just see her and

45
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 2: the good that she's doing and it's just it's great.

46
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 2: So anyway, today's episode me and Jess getting after. We're

47
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: getting honest about what twenty twenty has been like for

48
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: her and the strang that she's gained from the Peloton

49
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 2: members and the community during an insane, insane time. She

50
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 2: also talks to me about the first thing that she's

51
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 2: gonna do when life feels a little bit more normal,

52
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: what she's looking forward to in the new year, the

53
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 2: product that helped her get through twenty twenty, and her

54
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 2: best advice as we navigate life's hurdles today, tomorrow, the

55
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 2: next day, and.

56
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 3: Long after that.

57
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: Before we get into the swing of things today, I

58
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: have to give it up for my sponsor, Athletic Greens.

59
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 2: I'm so grateful to them for helping to make this

60
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 2: week of episodes possible. And when I say that, I

61
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 2: do want to clarify, of course, this all takes time,

62
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 2: as you can understand, the recording, the editing, the producing

63
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 2: and this podcast. It's a huge, huge part of my

64
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: day to day. So it just means so much to

65
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 2: me that Athletic Greens is down with me and my mission.

66
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: And it's even more special really because it's such a

67
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: big part of my regular routine.

68
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 3: Like I believe in them, like they believe in me.

69
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 2: I'm talking to you about this stuff because I actually

70
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 2: used it.

71
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: I mentioned this on my.

72
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 2: Instagram stories yesterday that adding athletic Greens into my regular

73
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 2: routine is probably one of the best things I have

74
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 2: done for my health as an adult.

75
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: Period.

76
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 2: I used to be just like so haphazard about the

77
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 2: vitamins I was taking and literally just buying whatever I

78
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,359
Speaker 2: saw on the drug store shelf that looked good. But

79
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: now I drink Athletic Greens every single day, and I

80
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: know that I'm giving my body what it really needs,

81
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: including a multi vitamin, functional mushrooms, and other immune supporting

82
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 2: ingredients like vitamin C A, zinc sitrate, and ashwragonda to

83
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 2: support my immune system and also consistency in my training,

84
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 2: whether I am prepping for.

85
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 3: A marathon or just my day to day.

86
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 2: I mix it with water every single morning and it

87
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 2: allows me to hydrate and drink down seventy five of

88
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 2: the best hard to find ingredients that to be real.

89
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,920

130
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 2: seen snow this year, but this is like a day

131
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:11,640

Speaker 2: So I mean we're talking about snow now, but what

138
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: we've been talking about for the last year is the

139
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 2: fact that this year is unlike any other.

140
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 3: So give the hurdlers the details.

141
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: Catch me up a little bit, talk to me about

142
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: how your twenty twenty has been.

143
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: Oh man, twenty twenty, what a year it has been.

144
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: It blows my mind that it's December. Let me start

145
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: off by saying that I feel like the last before

146
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: before twenty twenty BT, I'm going I'm going to coin

147
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: that officially right here. The last like memory I have

148
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: before pre pandemic was Black History Month at Peloton, and

149
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: so it's wild because now we're revving up for Black

150
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: History Month twenty twenty one, and so I'm like, wait

151
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: a minute, Like, I just feel like it's been a

152
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: time travel. But it's been a year full of a

153
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: lot of stuff, a lot of alone time, a lot

154
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: of reflection, a lot of community, a lot of realization

155
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: that I'm really excited to dive into with you today.

156
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't have traded, of course, this year has

157
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: been brutal for so many reasons, for so many people.

158
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: But I wouldn't trade this year because it's done so

159
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: much for me personally, it's.

160
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 2: Also got to be really interesting. I mean, especially with

161
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 2: what you do. So many people around the country, around

162
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:47,959
Speaker 2: the world are looking toward Peloton this year for inspiration

163
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: and motivation and like sanity, and you are the person

164
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 2: that is providing that sanity to so many people. So

165
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 2: I would imagine that although what a beautiful opportunity to

166
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 2: connect with these people, like pressure is on. At least

167
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 2: that's how I would see it from my point point

168
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 2: of view, Like I would imagine that for you, maybe

169
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 2: more than ever, being really honest about what you need

170
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 2: and where you're at is so important to show up

171
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 2: for your community.

172
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 1: Totally, and I think that that's one of the things

173
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,839
Speaker 1: that I pride myself on, is always being very real.

174
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: So I even was just talking a couple of weeks ago.

175
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: You might have heard it in class. By the way,

176
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: I thank you for taking classes that I love the

177
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: phrase amplify the positive, because it's not You don't want

178
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 1: to be overly optimistic to the point where you're annoying

179
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 1: and to the point where you're like, okay, but you're

180
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: undermining the pain and the suffering that so many people

181
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: are going through. But you can always find the positive

182
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: and by using the word amplify, it's acknowledging that life,

183
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: you know, is not all roses, but there are some

184
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: beautiful things and let's choose to put those up higher

185
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: and focus on those. And for me personally, it's the secret.

186
00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: As you were just saying this whole thing, secret thing

187
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 1: that I would thinking about in my head was yes, Wow,

188
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: I am doing so much for other people. You know,

189
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: we're almost at four million members worldwide with at Peloton,

190
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: and I don't take that role lightly whatsoever. But the

191
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: secret is that y'all have done more for me than

192
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 1: you could ever imagine. Because there was a point in

193
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 1: time where I was not working out unless I was teaching,

194
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 1: I couldn't get myself to be motivated enough to get

195
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: up and teach. And because I didn't want to do

196
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: it for myself, I was like, oh, it's easy to

197
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: just you know, hang in today. It's easy today to

198
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: just you know, forget about those goals and forget about

199
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: the things I said I wanted to do. But because

200
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: it's my job, because I need to show up, I

201
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: find my strength in the stories of our members. And

202
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: so when you get a DM or a comment or

203
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: you're tagged in a post of someone saying, Jess, you're

204
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: the only bright spot. Peloton is the only bright spot

205
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: in my twenty twenty. I'm a central worker, my mom

206
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: is sick, I'm a single parent, I have three kids

207
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: under three. Like there's the stories never seems to amaze me.

208
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: And on my tough as dark as day, I'm like,

209
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,319
Speaker 1: these people need me, and I'm able to like transcend

210
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: myself and realize that it's bigger than me, and I'm

211
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: able to get up there and perform. And it helps me,

212
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: I hope, just as much as it helps others.

213
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 3: Oh for sure. For sure.

214
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 2: And I mean when we talk about like twenty twenty

215
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 2: as a whole and the lessons that you've learned, I mean,

216
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: showing up has to be a big one, Like to

217
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 2: keep showing up when stuff isn't going to plan, when

218
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 2: stuff feels hard, when you don't wanna yes.

219
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: Yes, and something. A big lesson that I learned this

220
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: year is that I've been saying this for a minute now,

221
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: but it has a whole new you know, idea behind it.

222
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: Now with this year is that life is happening for me,

223
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: it's not happening to me. And it goes with that

224
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: saying that, you know, the saying drives everyone nuts. Right

225
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: When someone says to you, oh, and something happens to you,

226
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: and someone says, oh, Emily, everything happens for a reason,

227
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: You're like, please do not speak to me. You are

228
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: in time out, Like that's what you want your original

229
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: thing to say. But I was talking to one of

230
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: my girlfriends a couple of weeks ago, maybe even a

231
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: month now, and she said that she heard the phrase

232
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: reframed as everything happens for an opportunity. And I loved

233
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: that because you can always, no matter how tough the

234
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 1: situation is, you can find some sort of opportunity for something.

235
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: Whether it's an opportunity for you to step up, it's

236
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 1: an opportunity for you to sit down, it's an opportunity

237
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: for you to be grateful, it's an opportunity for you

238
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: to accept something you know, like, there's an opportunity for

239
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 1: all of that. And I think that that has been

240
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: reaffirmed this year so much for me personally.

241
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 2: When we think about the opportunities then that have come

242
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 2: your way this year, what have you maybe been able

243
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 2: to make more space for because of the circumstance that

244
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 2: you wouldn't have been able to find space for before.

245
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: Oh that is a good question. I think this old

246
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 1: me wouldn't have said something like this because I would

247
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 1: have said, oh, that's selfish or something. But I found

248
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: space for myself, for me because I am so my

249
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 1: first thought was, oh, well, we have so many new

250
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: members at Peloton and I've given space. But I would

251
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: have done that regardless. But because of this time, I

252
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: have been able to give myself, you know, the space

253
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: to really listen to what my mind and my body needs.

254
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: Like I meditate every morning. Now I have a morning ritual,

255
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: which I didn't have before this because my schedule looks

256
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: so different on any given day and I didn't prioritize it.

257
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: And so I've been able to take a step back

258
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: to really think bigger picture for myself. And that's been

259
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 1: such a blessing.

260
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 3: I love that.

261
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 2: Okay, so one of our lessons here, make time for myself,

262
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 2: see things as an opportunity.

263
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 3: What's another lesson that you have learned this year?

264
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: So something that I have learned is that there is

265
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: no such thing as failure. I think that I've always

266
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 1: I've loved the phrase failure is just feedback and I

267
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: believe in that too, but I must have been in

268
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: a podcast or something or a book I read in

269
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 1: the past few months. But failure is relative, and so

270
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: we live our lives and moving forward, but we only

271
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: understand our lives when we look back. And so with that,

272
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: failure is not anything but a redirection. So right now,

273
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: if something happened to me something you know, I wanted

274
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 1: this gig that I really wanted, and that I didn't

275
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: get it, well, guess what, Yes, I would consider that

276
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 1: right now to be a failure. Five years from now,

277
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: who knows, maybe something a competing company you know, wanted

278
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: to work with me, and I wouldn't have been able

279
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: to do that if I had done. You know, just

280
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: all these little things that you take for granted because

281
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: in the moment you're sucking it, you're living life, moving forward,

282
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: and you're like, damn, I really wanted that. But then

283
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: later down, down, later on down the line, you're like, actually,

284
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: that wasn't a failure at all. That was just a

285
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: redirection that helped put me where I should be.

286
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 2: For the person who gets rejected or doesn't get the

287
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 2: thing that it is that they wanted, whether that has

288
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 2: anything to do with work, or in their personal life

289
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 2: or what have you. And they are in this circumstance

290
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 2: and feeling just really stuck and unmotivated and unsure. What

291
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 2: advice do you offer them in that hurdle moment?

292
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 1: Great question, I would say, dig into your arsenal of whys.

293
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: I often hear a lot of trainers and non trainers,

294
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: just to anyone in any field, talk about how important

295
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: your why is. But I would actually argue how important

296
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: your whys are. I think that something that crushes us

297
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: is that sometimes we put all of our whys in

298
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: one basket, or or our basket is just one why.

299
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: But if your basket is full of whys, you're able

300
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: to say, okay, let's talk about you know, because fitness

301
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: stay on brand.

302
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 3: Right.

303
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: If your only reason why you work out is because

304
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: it makes you feel good, well guess what you might

305
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: make up one morning and be like, I don't feel

306
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: like feeling good today, I'm actually good with not feeling

307
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: good today. Then you're not going to work out. But

308
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 1: if you have otherwise, of I want to set a

309
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 1: good example for my kids. I know that I'm nicer

310
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: to other people when I work out. I you know,

311
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: like I'm training for a marathon. I'm training for some

312
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: sort of You can go into that basket of wise

313
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: and choose the one that is going to get you

314
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: into that discipline headspace to do what you wanted to do.

315
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: So to that person that has that quote unquote failure

316
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: or who doesn't get what they wanted, I would ask

317
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: why do you want it? And do you really want it?

318
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: Because sometimes we get caught up in oh, I want this,

319
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 1: but then we can't say why. If you don't have

320
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: an arsenal of whys for what you're going after, then

321
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: maybe you don't actually want that thing. And that's okay.

322
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 2: If you had to pick one product that helped you

323
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 2: live a healthy and happier life in twenty twenty, what

324
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 2: is that product?

325
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,199
Speaker 1: I can't say. Dogs. Dogs aren't a product. I don't know.

326
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 3: I mean like dog, not really, you've had grace.

327
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: One of my other life lessons though, is we don't

328
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 1: deserve dogs. Dogs are like the best thing ever. I've

329
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: always appreciated Siana Grace, but she has single handedly helped

330
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: me get through this pandemic in a much better positive way.

331
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: I'm so jealous, and just listen, you gotta get yourself

332
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 1: a Siana grace sasty but worth it. This is gonna

333
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,159
Speaker 1: sound so cliche, but I'm really sorry. I'm not sorry.

334
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: The number one product that has literally transformed everything mind, body,

335
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 1: heart work, ethic is Peloton.

336
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 3: Can I tell you?

337
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 2: And I'm actually I mean, I'm not surprised that you

338
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 2: said this, but I asked this question recently on social

339
00:17:55,080 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 2: media and I was blown away at how how many

340
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 2: other people also said Peloton.

341
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 3: Like, if I got.

342
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 2: Maybe two hundred and fifty responses, which is like a

343
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 2: decent chunk of responses, I would say like a third

344
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 2: at least of those people, out of all of the

345
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 2: things they could have said or thrown into the mix,

346
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 2: said Peloton.

347
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 1: Well, Emily, like, think about this. We are a global company,

348
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: and for the first time, at least in our lives,

349
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: but in most people, I mean pretty much almost everyone's lives.

350
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 1: We are all going through the same thing together at

351
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: the same time. Of course, it looks different for every person,

352
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: and depending on where you are, there's lots of different intricacies,

353
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: but globally, we are all going through this pandemic, and

354
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: there's something to be said. When you are isolated, you

355
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: feel physically alone, but then you hop into a class,

356
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 1: and there are Robin had her turkey burn. This year

357
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: had fifty thousand plus people live emily sharing this experience

358
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: live I thought the first ever live fit family class

359
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: on Thanksgiving morning and Alex Dussant jumped in. There were

360
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 1: over three thousand families, not people, families that were connecting

361
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: with each other, whether together in their own household. But

362
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: do you know how many dms I got of people

363
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: saying that they did that class together on FaceTime or

364
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: they did that class with their aunt across the country

365
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: in a different country on zoom so peloton. Like I said,

366
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: it gives you that great sweat. Obviously, you're always going

367
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: to get a great sweat and that always boosts your mood.

368
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 1: But you're doing it with the community of people, and

369
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: you're doing it with people all over the world. So

370
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: in a time where you feel so lonely and so

371
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: unmotivated and so so many different adjectives I could throw

372
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: in there, you are not alone and during this period,

373
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: that is the most comforting feeling.

374
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 2: To have all one hundred percent and I can totally,

375
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 2: totally really, I mean, it was funny the other day

376
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 2: when I went to go when I went and I'm

377
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 2: you air.

378
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 3: Quotes, which doesn't help on a podcast.

379
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 2: But when I went to go take Robin Spin class,

380
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 2: like at five o'clock on a Friday, and I also

381
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 2: took your boot Camp class at ten am on a Saturday.

382
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 2: And this is the first time in so long that

383
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,360
Speaker 2: I've said like, oh, well, I'm taking a class at

384
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 2: five where I'm taking a class at ten And multiple

385
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 2: friends that I was chatting with they were like, wait,

386
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 2: where are you going to take a class?

387
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 3: I was like, no, it's just me. I have to

388
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 3: show up at this time. Wow.

389
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: Well no. But that's the thing about live classes is

390
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: it kind of likes that fire under You're like, okay, wait,

391
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: I want this live experience. I want to see you know, Tunday,

392
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: I want to see Ali. I want to see Emma,

393
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: like live in action, and because you feel it gives

394
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: you that heightened sense of being together. And the other

395
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: thing is this is something that blew my mind. And

396
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 1: I actually texted her the other day. Can I tell

397
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: you one of the closet experiences I've had with Peloton

398
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 1: is that I went I do sleep meditations pretty much

399
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 1: every night, and I put on a DT's newest I

400
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 1: think it was a twenty minute sleep meditation. I was

401
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: feeling anxious. I was having one of those moments that

402
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: we all have, but I was like, let me just

403
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: do this meditation and put myself to sleep. At ten

404
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: pm on a random let's call it Wednesday night, over

405
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:18,719
Speaker 1: a thousand people meditating together to go to sleep, and

406
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: that feeling was sure. Like I said, I've taken so

407
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 1: many live classes, even not live you know, the thousands

408
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: of people. But to hear these wonderful words by such

409
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: a calming, beautiful force like a DT, and knowing that

410
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,239
Speaker 1: other people are probably having those similar anxieties that I

411
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 1: was having before going to sleep, it was such a

412
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 1: beautiful way to end the day.

413
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 2: What excites you about twenty twenty one Hugs?

414
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hug everyone. You get a hug, and you

415
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: get a hug, and you get a hug, everyone gets

416
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,880
Speaker 1: a girl. I'm hugging everyone like everyone's getting.

417
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 3: It, like everybody's getting it.

418
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 1: So that is the main thing that I'm looking forward to.

419
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,639
Speaker 1: Other things I'm looking forward to, for sure, traveling I

420
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: would love to. I have so many places now that

421
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: I would love to go see and spend time. And

422
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: then surprisingly I'm going to say that I'm really looking

423
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 1: forward to not forgetting this year. I really want to

424
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: remember the strength that I have gained this year through

425
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 1: the experiences that I've had this year, and I don't

426
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: want to take them for granted. I don't want to

427
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: forget this year.

428
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 3: Beautiful perspective.

429
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 2: Right now, Jess, in this very moment, you, as you

430
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 2: are right now, have an opportunity to offer the Justs

431
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 2: who is feeling probably a little bit scared back in

432
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,959
Speaker 2: March at the beginning of all of this, a piece

433
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 2: of advice.

434
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 3: What do you tell her looking back on that right now?

435
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: Two things. The quick answer, cook more. I wish that

436
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 1: I cook sometimes to be like Jess, this is your

437
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: time to chef it up, because I definitely cooked, but

438
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: not as much as I would have liked. The longer answer,

439
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,199
Speaker 1: what I would tell Jess at the beginning of the

440
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: year is find joy in the ordinary. I feel like

441
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 1: my whole life I have thrived in the highs and

442
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: the lows. I love those polarizing Okay, this is such

443
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: a great day, this is such a bad day. This

444
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: is and I would throw those labels good day, bad day.

445
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: And if I didn't have a good day, bad day,

446
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: I would be like, eh, someone say how's your day,

447
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 1: and I'm like eh, and it's like, why is it? Eh?

448
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: And it's just when I think about it, I'm like, actually,

449
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: it wasn't. It's just that nothing high or low, no

450
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: peaks and valleys. But guess what, the flatland is beautiful.

451
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: There's a lot of beauty in the flatland, because not

452
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: every day needs to have the zigzags. And so that's

453
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: what I would tell myself because that was something that

454
00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,719
Speaker 1: I have never experienced, especially as an adult. Is that

455
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: flat land and there's nothing wrong with There's actually so

456
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: much goodness in it.

457
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 2: Any vibe you're ride in through twenty twenty one, anything

458
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 2: you like yourself are like, this is my mindset? Aside

459
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 2: from I'm gonna hug everyone, you.

460
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 1: Know, outside of that, that's a good question. I would

461
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 1: say that.

462
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 3: You know what mine is?

463
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 2: Oh yes, all right, let me let me let me

464
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 2: tell you where I'm at my twenty twenty one vibe.

465
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 2: Aside from equally feeling the same way about hugs, is

466
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 2: work smarter, not harder? All of twenty twenty and I

467
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: think large in part because of the circumstance.

468
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 3: But let's not play the victim.

469
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 2: Here, I was just working my butt off to spin

470
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 2: my wheels over and over and over to not get

471
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 2: nearly as far as I felt like I used to

472
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: be able to get. And so I did get to

473
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 2: a place where I could do that without judgment. But

474
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 2: now I'm reflecting upon twenty two twenty as a whole

475
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 2: and asking myself, now that this is where I am,

476
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 2: how can I use what I have learned to work

477
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,160
Speaker 2: smarter and not harder and not keep spinning my wheels

478
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 2: going forward?

479
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 1: I love that. Good for you.

480
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 3: Thanks, Wait, I.

481
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: Really love well. I mean but that I think that

482
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 1: speaks to even what I just mentioned, because it's so

483
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 1: good to it used to feel so good to just

484
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: be busy, like it felt natural. That was my baseline.

485
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: My baseline was busy. And now it's not cool to

486
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: be busy, you know, like it's not I love that vibe. Okay, Wow,

487
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 1: why are you busy sitting in your apartment all day? Like?

488
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 3: Do the stuff that matters?

489
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 2: Work on the stuff that matters, like, don't just be

490
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 2: busy to be busy?

491
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 3: Yes?

492
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 1: And so my vibe, I would say, is because the

493
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 1: first word that came to mind when you when you

494
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: said this is freedom. I think that another thing that

495
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: I had to let go of this year was timelines.

496
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: I feel like everything from what you ordered online to

497
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: what age you wanted to get. I already and have

498
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: kids that like those timelines. Screw them, forget about them,

499
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: freedom from them.

500
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 2: You know, almost used an expletive here, but I stopped

501
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 2: myself to keep this PG for the Peloton families that

502
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 2: might be listening.

503
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Well it's funny. I haven't cursed either,

504
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 1: and I'm very shocked. I'm proud of myself. I'm not

505
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: cursing yet, so wow. But yeah, I think that that's

506
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: what that's what my vibe is going to be is

507
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: is breaking some rules, having some freedom, and being less

508
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: rigid with timelines.

509
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 2: Any wisdom you want to leave the hurdlers with going

510
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 2: in to a new year.

511
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: The thing that I just want you to really really

512
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 1: remember going into this new year is that you can

513
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:43,479
Speaker 1: do hard things.

514
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 3: How do you know?

515
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: Because you've done them and you've survived all of those

516
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: hard things, all those hard days. And so when you

517
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: have your next hurdle, when you have your next struggle,

518
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 1: remind yourself that you've trained for this. This is this

519
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: is what you're built for. This is what you're here for,

520
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,479
Speaker 1: and never forget that in order to build yourself up,

521
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: you have to break down first, So don't be afraid

522
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: of that breakdown killing In.

523
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:09,639
Speaker 3: At the end of this, Justins, what a home run.

524
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 3: I love you too, Okay, you know it. You know

525
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 3: what's coming.

526
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 2: The hurdlers want to keep up with you. How do

527
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 2: they keep up with you? Give me the details.

528
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,399
Speaker 1: Take all my classes on Peloton. I got family classes.

529
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: I have like boot camps, I have walks, runs, stretches, strengths,

530
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: all of that good stuff. But you can also follow

531
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,679
Speaker 1: me on Instagram at Jason's Fit and also find me

532
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 1: on Facebook Justin's dash Peloton.

533
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 3: I've got to ask you.

534
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 2: I should have asked you this when you first mentioned

535
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 2: but I know the family classes are like a project,

536
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,439
Speaker 2: a labor of love because of your background in teaching,

537
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 2: which you talk about in your episode of Hurdle I

538
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 2: think it was episode one twelve, So talk to me

539
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 2: about how that's been for you.

540
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,160
Speaker 3: I'm just so curious.

541
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: It's been really amazing because it's something that we at

542
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 1: Peloton have been wanting to do for so long. But

543
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 1: of course, when everyone was stuck at home. At the

544
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,439
Speaker 1: beginning of the year, it was like a little bit

545
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: more of a sense of urgency, like, let's put this

546
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: out there because kids are missing out on social time,

547
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,479
Speaker 1: they were missing out on pe the education part and

548
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,360
Speaker 1: the movement part. And so we launched three different classes

549
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: that I teach fit fun, which is like like modern

550
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: or easy to moderate class I would say fits Strong,

551
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: which is all body weight, by the way, is more moderate.

552
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 1: And then brain breaks. They're five minutes, a little wiggles.

553
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: And the thing that has surprised me the most we're

554
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: actually launching this month the third round of them already,

555
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: which is pretty wild, is that is the unique ways

556
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 1: that families and teachers shout out to the teachers always

557
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: have been using them with their kids and with their students.

558
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: That has been such a cool thing to watch. And

559
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: the best thing for me is when people tag me

560
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: in photos of their kids and their students saying the

561
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: little mantrac the end, they say, I am strong, I

562
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: am confident, and I'm gonna make it a really great day.

563
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 1: Just those mantras. I know, I live for it.

564
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 3: Wait, maybe I need a brain break?

565
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: You do let me Can you take the brain break?

566
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: One hundred percent if you if you want a tough one,

567
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: take what was the A tough brain break, A tough one.

568
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: This will this will have you working. Don't sleep on

569
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: the brain breaks, y'all. Don't sleep on them.

570
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 2: Don't sleep on them. Amazing, all right? I am over

571
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:31,040
Speaker 2: at Emily A Baddi at Hurdle Podcast. Another hurdle conquered.

572
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 2: Catch you guys next time
