Yeah, 66 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: I mean most of the women that I work with. 67 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: I work with men too, but the women are the 68 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: big focus today and they are juggling like crazy, trying 69 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: to show up to work, two kids, to relationship demands 70 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: and themselves and their selves are last. You know, it's 71 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: there there putting themselves on the back burner for all 72 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: the reasons to uphold everybody else's well being. And I 73 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: think that's what I work on a lot with them, 74 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: is saying, the more you want to give, the more 75 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 1: you need. And if they're going to go out there 76 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 1: and try to help everybody else and still crush it 77 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 1: at work and be great parents and all of it, 78 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: that they have to center well being and their own 79 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: mental health as a gift to Yeah. It's such a 80 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: selfless act, right, It's such a selfless act to to 81 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: poor love into your family, to poor love into your partner. 82 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: You know, you have to show up in in the 83 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: work environment as well. That a lot of oftentimes I 84 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: think of myself as well, Like even guys, I think 85 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: as well, we'll put ourselves last and then and then 86 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: what's then It ends up not being sustainable. It ends 87 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: up we end up crashing, We end up um, you 88 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: know what. Depression can come from that because you're not 89 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: personally happy and fulfilled. It's very it's a very difficult 90 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: time for a lot of people. And I don't have 91 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: kids right now, so I don't know what you know. 92 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: I can't I can't have the understanding of what a 93 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: parent is going through trying to juggle kids, juggle the relationship, 94 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: like you said, juggle work, and then also make yourself 95 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: happy in a really unique and chaotic time. Yeah. Yeah, 96 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: And I think that we feel guilty if we're happy. 97 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: Now that's another thing. It's like if I am doing okay, 98 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: Holy cow, that's not fair because so many people are 99 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: really struggling. So there's almost you know what we're doing 100 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: some mental health campaigns at YouTube and even with my 101 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: kids is is people are are almost wearing their mental 102 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: health challenges to be in belonging, you know, to to say, oh, 103 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not doing okay either, you know where I 104 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: actually think the people who are okay right now.

You know. I agree 109 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 1: with you, Sharie. I think now more than ever, the 110 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: world needs inspiration. Yeah, And I see, I have a 111 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: lot of friends that are struggling during the pandemic, and 112 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: I have a lot of friends that are actually really 113 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: thriving during the pandemic. And it seems that my friends 114 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: that are thriving during it have become very shy to 115 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: share their current state of well being because they don't 116 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: want to, like they don't want to put it in 117 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: front of anybody's face or like make other feels other 118 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: people feel less than um. But I'm like, please share it. 119 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: The world needs that inspiration now more than ever. Gailice 120 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: in the same sort of thing, like across the mental 121 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: health order, you seeing struggle and thriving. Yes, it's fair 122 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: to say, but I would say, obviously, as a psychiatrist 123 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: and psychoanalysts, I am seeing more struggle because I am 124 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: you know that that's my job, and so I'm seeing, 125 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: you know, returned of patients that had been doing well 126 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: and are relapsing. UM. I'm seeing new patients obviously that 127 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: people who had not previously seemed to need mental health 128 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: care need it. UM. I could tell you that surveys 129 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: across the board Psychiatric Association being national institutent mental health UM, 130 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: there's really an explosion of mental health need in anxiety 131 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: disorders and depressive disorders, post traumatic stress disorder, relapsing people 132 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: in terms of addiction, and real concerns that there may 133 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: be arise in suicide's. UM will be reflect back on 134 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: this time. UH, concerns about rising mental health issues and 135 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: health professionals a group that rarely gets mental health care 136 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: because they kind of feel like they're not supposed to, 137 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: but they've been on the front lines of this pandemic 138 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: and the stress, the burnout, the feelings of helplessness have 139 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: really affected health professionals. UM. So I would say, you know, 140 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: I'm I'm very heavily taxed, as are my peers. In 141 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: really trying to help people to do two things. UM. 142 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: One is to think about and incorporate into your life 143 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: preventive mental health care. So we can talk about what 144 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: those things are. But you know, people think all the 145 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: time about preventive care. Right, you go to the doctor 146 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: once a year to have check up, see if you 147 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: have diabetes, or or see if you're heading that direction, 148 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: or your blood pressure is rising, if you need some 149 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: cardiac here to prevent certain diseases from happening. But we 150 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: never think about that with mental health care, and we 151 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: should be because people can definitely be doing things things 152 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: that are are not difficult to incorporate into your life. 153 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 1: We can talking about aerobic exercise for thirty minutes a 154 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: day multiple times, to be talking about a deep breathing, 155 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: the practice of mindfulness or meditation, um muscle relaxation, us 156 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: of visual imagery, all kinds of things that people can 157 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 1: do to help stave off and and actually build a 158 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,599 Speaker 1: toolbox of hoping tools a few and more resilient in 159 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: this time. Because really, even though I could tell you, okay, 160 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 1: I'm not seeing as many people feel great. So I 161 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: want people to understand you don't feel great. That's that's 162 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: pretty normal right now, and that's okay, you can accept that. 163 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: But I do think that we're going to see a 164 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: lot of people afterwards build resilience and feel in some 165 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: ways is stronger and more able than they did before. 166 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: I actually very much agree with you on that. Um. 167 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: In my life as an athlete, I've learned a lot 168 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: about resilience. And we used to say as an athlete, 169 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: where you once blister, you will callous. And I think 170 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: that's what it's going to happen to people right now, 171 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 1: is they're they're blistering in certain areas, but like you said, 172 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: they're going to be stronger in the future because of it. Um. 173 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: And we also used to say, announce of prevention is 174 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: worth a pound of cure. And but you're right, like 175 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: I've never I've never thought of it in terms of 176 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: mental health preventative care. So can you walk us through 177 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: what some of those things specifically might be where somebody 178 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: can be proactive to defend against the onset of any 179 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: sort of mental health anxiety or illness or trauma upcoming. 180 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: So the two the two most common arenas I think 181 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: of concern are various anxiety issues which people are experiencing 182 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: and various depressive issues which people are experiencing. And um, 183 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: so things like I said, aerubic exercise eyes really getting 184 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: your heart rate up for thirty minutes a day, multiple 185 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: times a week, has been shown to actually go head 186 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: to head with medication from mild to moderate depression. Clinical 187 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 1: depression definitely reduces anxiety. UM definitely reduced the stress level, 188 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: so that that is that is a no brainer UM 189 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: doing something taking five minutes in the morning and five 190 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: minutes in the day to do something like UM. Deep 191 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: abdominal breathing, which is breathing into your nose to account 192 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: of five and out to account of seven. This pattern 193 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: kind of breathing which it first would feel weird and 194 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: be uncomfortable, and you want to start by doing it 195 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: lying down, since you can put your hand over your 196 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:45,479 Speaker 1: abdomen and have that part of your lower chest essentially 197 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: for the inhale because you want you want your lungs 198 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: to fill deeply. That kind of pattern breathing actually has 199 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: been shown to really reduce physiologic anxiety, which actually then 200 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: reduced the anxiety in your mind. Similarly, deep muscle relaxation, 201 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: which is squeezing muscle groups starting with your toes and 202 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: eventually moving all the way up to your face to 203 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: account of five as tight as you can, and then 204 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: relaxing it slowly to account of five, again reducing physiological anxiety. 205 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 1: Social support super important do you have people that you 206 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 1: have in your life that you can really talk with 207 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: about how you're really feeling. Not the you know, they 208 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: I gotta put on a good face for you kind 209 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: of friends, but like really people that you can be 210 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: intimate with and really talk. UM. Journaling is very helpful 211 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 1: for some people to really write down their feelings and 212 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: even take their temperature every day to objectively see, like 213 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: on a scale one to ten, how is my new today? 214 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: Like is it am I really having a hard time? 215 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: Or actually I reflect back not so much, which gives 216 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: you perspective. Um. These kinds of things built in really help. UM. 217 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: But I would also tell people that if they are 218 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: finding that they're their mood or their anxiety level is 219 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: interfering with their ability to function day to day at all, 220 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: interrupting sleep, appetite, no libido, really highly irritable or highly hopeless, 221 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: and you can't really function you in your usual way, um, 222 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: even when you make effort, then it might be time 223 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 1: to you know, just check in with a therapist and 224 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: have an evaluation. Yeah. I also think people who are 225 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 1: you know how in our friend groups there's like the 226 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: person who usually is the support person for everybody you 227 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 1: know one final column, the next frontal column, and they 228 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 1: support everybody. I think those people also, I want to 229 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: if you're one of those people in your friend group, 230 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: I want to encourage you to reach out to people 231 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: as well. I know people in my life who are 232 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 1: very supportive of many people, and then they're like, man, 233 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: can somebody just ask me how I'm doing instead of 234 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: dumping all of their issues on me. Um So, but 235 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: you need to be open and honest and share your 236 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: I'm a very strong guy as well. I can handle 237 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff as well, but I've learned as 238 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: well I need to reach out to ask for help. 239 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: I need, you know, because my friends are struggling to 240 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: or or maybe they're doing great or but like it, 241 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: It's very easy for people to somewhat miss you. There's 242 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: a lot going on in the world, a lot going 243 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: on in our lives, and I want to encourage people 244 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: to voice if they have issues, voice it to friends, 245 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: raise it with friends, and it's amazing when you do, 246 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: your friends will line up to help you as much 247 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: as they possibly can. Tree what what can you what 248 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: advice can you give to our listeners right now about 249 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: um about struggling with family, love, and and that kind 250 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: of structure. So kids, let's separate it into kids, and 251 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: then let's start with relationship. People that are struggling with relationship. 252 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: You're gonna advice that you can give to support people 253 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: struggling with relationship. Yeah, I mean, I think Gail would agree. 254 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: She's probably seeing it in her practice to that relationships 255 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: are taking a heavy hit right now. You know, we're 256 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: quarantining with people were all up in each other's business 257 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: more than ever, and I think there's some blessings in that, 258 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: but it's been it's been hard on relationships. I think 259 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: we've heard predictions that divorce rates are going to rise 260 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: during this moment in time, Domestic violence is up, and 261 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: I think for women in particular, we go to fear. 262 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 1: You know, it's so easy to go to fear right 263 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: now and feel disconnection. I think connection is our number 264 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: one need. It's how we survive through relationship. It's also 265 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: like the number one indicator of job satisfaction or deep 266 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: and meaningful relationships. So um talk about relationships at home 267 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: and at work, because at home, I think communication is 268 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: everything right now, like you know, channel a little burn 269 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: a brown and being super vulnerable and honest about what 270 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: you need and how you're feeling and where where you're hurting. 271 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: You know, there's there's a lot of a lot that 272 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: I work on with people in this realm because I 273 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: don't think we really have these communication structures and these tools. 274 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: We didn't learn them in school. But to baseline start, 275 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: it's just being really real, setting aside time to be 276 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: honest about how you're feeling, and sharing fears because I 277 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: know one of my greatest teachers is saying over and 278 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: over and over again, um, do not let fear be 279 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: your guide. It's the opposite of love. And women, I 280 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: think when we're in our full feminine power, we are love. 281 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: We are the pure vessels of love. And I think 282 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: we look outside of ourselves when we're in fear to 283 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: get it and if we could remember that we're the 284 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: source of it and to do everything that might nurture 285 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: love flowing through our own bodies, and that starts with ourselves, 286 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: which is I see a lot of women being phenomenally 287 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: hard on themselves right now because they just feel like 288 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 1: they can't do anything well. And so to start really 289 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: with the practices, a lot of what Gail said, I 290 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 1: would have totally underscored and plus one, um, really looking 291 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: at what are the conditions that I require as a 292 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: woman right now to do my best? What are the 293 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 1: conditions so at work? If people are loading up workloads 294 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 1: on me and I I've got workstreams glore and I 295 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: can't ask for help that I will underscore both of 296 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: you saying that that you have to learn how to 297 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: say I actually can't do all this, and delegate and 298 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: learn how to be real with your boss and ask 299 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 1: for If I'm going to say yes to something, I've 300 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: got to say no to other things, or say no 301 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 1: to what something's asking somebody's asking for to say yes 302 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: to other things and be real about it. A lot 303 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: of these companies that I work with are very you know, 304 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,959 Speaker 1: we've been trained to be so utterly polite and achieving 305 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: and good and all of this, and it precludes the 306 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: humanity that I think we all need to give ourselves 307 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: right now. It's amazing. Yeah, and UM, further to that, 308 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: when when I think about that, when you're speaking there, 309 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 1: the thing that I'm listening to or the thing that's 310 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: going on in my mind is when I start to 311 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 1: feel anxious or have stress about something. The initial reason 312 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: and cause for that is feeling overwhelmed. Yeah, I feel 313 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: overwhelmed and like I gotta do this, I gotta do this, 314 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: get this. I should have said no to something and 315 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 1: then and then I have anxiety and stress. Um, Gail, 316 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: how do we how do we say no? How do 317 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: we learn to say no? How do we lower that 318 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 1: overwhelmed feeling? A lot of people are feeling overwhelmed with 319 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: many things, like you said, job, kids, relationship, the upcoming election, 320 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 1: the future, this how long is this going? Like? How 321 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 1: do we how do we stop from feeling so overwhelmed? Well, 322 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 1: a big part right now of people feeling overwhelmed has 323 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: to do with uncertainty. Right, we need to not know 324 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 1: when this will end, if this will end, and um, 325 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 1: we you know, on it on a on a global level, right, 326 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: and so it seems like things keep coming and we 327 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: don't know how they'll get resolved, if they'll end, and 328 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: we on a day to day level, there's that creates 329 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 1: all kinds of uncertainty. You know, people usually feel calmer 330 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: and structure of some sort, and so to have this 331 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: level of constant uncertainty is driving tremendous amount of anxiety 332 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: and then the other feeling you sort of described was 333 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: was the stress of burnout, which is taking on and 334 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: taking on um and and and for women, the numbers 335 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 1: that recently come out is, you know, women are basically 336 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 1: working a seventy hour work week because they're the primary 337 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 1: caretakers usually of the kids, and so they're everybody's at home. 338 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 1: You know, everybody's working from home. So they're they're working, 339 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: they're working the house, they're working the kids, and they 340 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: have a seven hour work week to to to uh 341 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: their partners fift year work week. So you know, there 342 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: there is like a tremendous amount of burnout and um, 343 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: as Sheeri was was pouring out, like we feel like 344 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: we're supposed to we're we're supposed to be. You know, 345 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: we're really a good woman. We're gonna we're gonna say 346 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: yes to everything and do everything. And you know, so 347 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 1: as you so you're saying, you keep so two things 348 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,199 Speaker 1: I think have to happen. One is how can you 349 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: learn to live with and accept a degree of uncertainty. 350 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: It's not something that we usually consciously think a lot about, 351 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: but it is something in this instance I'm saying would 352 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 1: really be helpful to you to think about. Um, you know, 353 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: we basically say, what am I anxious about? It's a 354 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: that's a that's an appropriate danger signal for things going on. 355 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: Let me do my problem solving in relation to that. 356 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: And once I've done whatever concrete problem solving I can do, 357 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: any anxiety left over is just refloat uncertainty anxiety, and 358 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: I have to just let it be. I can't attack it, 359 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: I can't send it off, and just kind of it's 360 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: gonna float there. I don't have to react to it. 361 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: I have to know that there's not a thing to do. 362 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: It just is. And I know that sounds kind of weird, 363 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: but it's something that you actually have the practice, and 364 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: the more you practice it, actually the more the anxiety 365 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: receives because it's the mental if the brand's fight with 366 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: this anxiety about uncertainty, that drives anxiety up. And in 367 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: terms of burnout, what we know from all kinds of 368 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: studies about burnout and care give a burnout, that it happens, 369 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: it's bad for your mind, it's bad for your body. 370 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: It raises your cortisol level, which which creates a lot 371 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: of different kinds of health issues. So it is vitally 372 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: important that if you are the caregiver of everything that 373 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: you simply offload it. You've got to say no to 374 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 1: some word things You've got to say, you know, to 375 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,239 Speaker 1: your partner, I need you to take this and this 376 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,479 Speaker 1: and this or mom, this is going on. Would you 377 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: be able to do this in this or hey, friend, 378 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: can meet as a community, say today we in my backyard, 379 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: and tomorrow be in your backyard and we'll take you. 380 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: There are ways to sort of brainstorm around bringing people 381 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: in to offload some of the stuff. In addition to 382 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 1: the saying no, which is hard, as she's pointing out, 383 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: women tend to often feel guilty. I'm not supposed to 384 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: and you just have to like get with yourself and 385 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: say you are not helping anybody. If your well is dry, 386 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: there is no water for anyone, So you have to 387 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: set some of it from an empty Yeah, so you 388 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: have some well. I could just even add on to 389 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: what Gail just said about handling uncertainty. It's so true, 390 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: they say, to people who can handle a lot of 391 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 1: uncertainty do the best in life. And the way to 392 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: also counterbalance it is to get enough certainty. So dial 393 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,239 Speaker 1: in on what would make you feel safe, what make 394 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: you feel in control? You know, a good plan. I 395 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: always get asked for like what's my plan, you know, 396 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: or really tending to the finances, Like that's another fear 397 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: for a lot of women. So get a great advice 398 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: person on your team, somebody who's in that realm to say, 399 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: take care of me, tell me what I should be 400 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 1: doing right now. You know, anything that would give you safety, comfort, 401 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: pleasure to balance out the uncertainty will be huge. I think, yeah, 402 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: I think that. I think all of those are really important. Safety, comfort, 403 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,719 Speaker 1: and I love the last one you said was pleasure. 404 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: But because I think a lot of people right now 405 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: are overlooking that element of life. It's become a struggle 406 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: and a survive atmosphere versus like an adapt and thrive atmosphere. 407 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: So like people are like, oh, I'm locked in my house, 408 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: Well you're not locked in your house. Your your front 409 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: door still opens. Like in l A. Everybody feels so 410 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: contained in l A. But the Angelos nash Old Forest 411 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,120 Speaker 1: is only thirty minutes outside of l A. You can 412 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: go for a hype nature. You know, like life is changing, 413 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: it's very different than it was before. But with that 414 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: brings different opportunities. I've also had lots of friends that 415 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: have said, I've ever havill of connection with my family 416 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 1: and my kids. The things I've get to see that 417 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: i'd be around my kids so much, It's been absolutely amazing. 418 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: It's been a blessing to me. It's reinvigorated my family 419 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: life versus getting so focused on career. Um, yeah, what 420 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: do you see? We really have a couple of minutes left. 421 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: But what do you think what do you see as 422 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: some long lasting effects of this quarantine slash COVID time. Well, 423 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: I think people are going to realize that they are 424 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: made of stronger stuff than they realized in some ways, right, Um, 425 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: and uh they that I think maybe people are building 426 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: coping tools to last down Um, that they can't take 427 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 1: for granted. A lot of the things in life and 428 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: in the world that we have, that we that you have, 429 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: and many people who are reorienting their priorities like what really, 430 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: Oh gosh, this makes me think what really matters to me? 431 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 1: This relationship really matters. I mean, you're this you know, 432 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: whatever it is, And and that's not a bad thing 433 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: because sometimes you know, when you walk around feeling kind 434 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: of invincible and kind of like life's forever, and you know, 435 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: this has made us sort of pulled us up short 436 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: and said, oh, maybe those things aren't true and um, 437 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: and that's and that changes priorities. And I also want 438 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: to make a pitch for in terms of improving mood 439 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: by the way, um, the importance of relating into what 440 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: you said, gratitude as a practice, um that even if 441 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: things are difficult, there's almost always something you can think 442 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: of during the day which you do feel grateful a person, 443 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: a cup of coffee, but like almost and and making 444 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: a mental note in me those each day for several 445 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: weeks actually will boost mood and reduced anxiety and giving back. 446 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, you can go out and have pleasurable and 447 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: actually a greadurable thing to do is to brandstorm away 448 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: to be giving, giving to people around you, or giving 449 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: on a community level. And those things are very tied 450 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: to mental health as well well. Um, and they are 451 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: often very pleasurable in in kind of unique way. Gratitude 452 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: is a massive one. UM. A while back I did 453 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: the four kind of values of my life, four Pillars 454 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 1: of my life and gratitude um of of happiness and 455 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: what a full life looks like for me, and gratitude 456 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: was one of those and I noticed that when I 457 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: started getting into sort of a grumpy, grouchy mood, the 458 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: first pillar of my life that started to fall away 459 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: was gratitude. As soon as gratitude started falling away, I 460 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: started it was like what I didn't have? What was 461 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: going wrong? What was And I was like, Wow, that's 462 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: actually a lack of gratitude is actually leading to my 463 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: my disrupted state, a less than peak state. And uh, 464 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: it's actually during COVID time, it's actually brought prayer back 465 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 1: into my life a lot. I pray three times a day. 466 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 1: I pray before every meal. Um. I used to pray 467 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: just at supper time, but now I pray before every meal, 468 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: and I just say whatever comes out. Thankful for my dog, 469 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: Thankful for this beautiful park that I'm able to take 470 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: him to.

And it's just warms 476 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 1: my heart and it's actually been something I look forward 477 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: to when I sit down for every single meal to 478 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: say a prayer and see what comes out. It's really 479 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 1: helped me immensely. Um Shree, do you have any other 480 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: advice for our community, for the ladies of our community, 481 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: of the listeners of our community, help them struggle. Yeah, 482 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 1: And what you just said is so huge because that's 483 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: the antidote to fear Brooks, Like, you know, practicing gratitude 484 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: just means that fear can't really be present and you 485 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:04,360 Speaker 1: are actually elevating your state of being higher than where 486 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: where the world is pulling us down to, you know, 487 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: So that's another act of control and personal freedom, you know, 488 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: to do that. I think my big focus with people 489 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 1: right now is anchoring them and orienting them to what 490 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: is going on? Where where am I in this crazy 491 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 1: scene because everybody feels a little lost at see, you know, 492 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: in the waves keep crashing, And I think that this 493 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: is just my understanding having studied so much with scholars 494 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: and stages, and this this time that we're in was 495 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: predicted thousands of years ago. It's we're like right on schedule. 496 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: And everybody wants to say it's the apocalypse and and 497 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: it is in a way, but it's not what we 498 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: have been sold through all the movies. It's an ending 499 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: of things as we know it, which I think could 500 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: be the greatest thing that ever happened to us. And 501 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: if you center into that storyline, you know that I'm 502 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: a part of a changing of history of a new era. Maybe. 503 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 1: I know. Zach Bush, who I love, says, if you 504 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: were born right now for this, you have a big purpose. 505 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 1: And I'm always zooming people out to remember what's the 506 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: bigger picture, Like, yeah, our finances, are relationships, are health, 507 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: everything is like crazy, But what's the really big thing 508 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: going on? And how can I remember that? That's that 509 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: helps you say? No, you know that helps you say like, 510 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: actually I want to tell my grandkids a different story 511 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: about what what I did in this time. Yeah, amazing. Um, Gail, 512 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: anything to add to that. I'm gonna let you ladies 513 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: go here in a second. Anything to add to that. 514 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: The best advice you could leave our listeners with, Um, 515 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: everybody needs self care. And I think, um, you know 516 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: this this time because it is a particularly stressful and 517 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: difficult time, more than ever, everybody needs self care. So 518 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: I would just say, you know, there are many ways 519 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: to do that. Um, but you kind of have to 520 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: make it a priority, I guess I'll say, And whether 521 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: that's self care within your relationship or within your finances, 522 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: or what you put you know, into your body, um, 523 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,239 Speaker 1: and and what you do with your mind. I just 524 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: would would say that, you know, I'm pleased to say, 525 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: we're coming out of a time where self care and 526 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: and certainly mental health care was so stigmatized that people 527 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 1: you know couldn't acknowledge or wouldn't tell others. And I 528 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: think we're really coming out of that. I'm glad to say. Um, 529 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: So the most important thing is acknowledged to yourself. Acknowledge 530 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: your own story to yourself, because that's the only way 531 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: you can rewrite your story right and and uh and 532 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 1: and and make alterations um. And physiologically uh, feed your 533 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: feed your body so you can feed your mind. Um. 534 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 1: And I think, uh, you know, like I said, I 535 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: think many of us will turn out to come out 536 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: more resilient in the end and have built tools. You know, 537 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,959 Speaker 1: you can't build resilience if if every the way is paved, 538 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: if the way is smooth. I'm trying to talk to 539 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: parents about this all the time. If you paved the 540 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 1: way for your child and they can never make mistakes 541 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: or fall down because you picked them up as they 542 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: were even heading down. UM. Then they can't build the 543 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: coping tools, they can't learn that they can overcome, that 544 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: they can that they have that strength in them, and 545 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: then when really more difficult stuff happens, they don't feel equipped. 546 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: So the same thing is true for adults. And so 547 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: I do think that out of this people are going 548 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: to find that they had stuff in them. They didn't 549 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: know that, they've accrudd certain abilities and strength they didn't 550 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: know they had UM and that will will leave them 551 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 1: fitter for life. H I agree with you. I had 552 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: a friend that was talking about recently. I was talking 553 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 1: to him and he said about life and relationship. He 554 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 1: was talking about relationship that applied it to life as well. 555 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: He said, a relations and ship when given a conflict, 556 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 1: if that conflict can be peacefully resolved, the relationship is 557 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: stronger for having had that conflict and thus in a 558 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: better position moving forward. And I was wonderful. It applies 559 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 1: to life, It applies to relationship, career, many things. So 560 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: it was very relevant for this conversation. Um Sharie, where 561 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: can our community find you? Uh Shari?

We're gonna go rapid boom 613 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: boom boom. Here we go. Um. We want to serve 614 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: our community as much as possible. Um Lynn, what are 615 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 1: you seeing in the world of finances right now? What 616 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: are we supposed to do with our fire? We're supposed 617 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: to spend money, not spend money. Should we be saving? 618 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 1: Why our finances causing us such stress in our lives 619 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,799 Speaker 1: and our relationships? Well, I'll answer the first question. The 620 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 1: first question is we shouldn't be spending money. We can't 621 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 1: go anywhere anyway, right, So social distancing and staying home. 622 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: It's good for the budget. We are facing what could 623 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: possibly be the worst recession of all time, and so 624 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: I encourage folks to one uh store as much cash 625 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 1: as you can, get rid of as many unnecessary subscriptions 626 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: and things like that as you can minimize if you can, 627 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: and stack your cash. Take advantage of the offers by 628 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: almost every finance or lender company in the in the 629 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 1: country where they're offering extensions of time to pay. Now 630 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: it's not the time to be a financial hero. Now, 631 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: it's not the time to prepay everything down as soon 632 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,720 Speaker 1: as you get your money. Because people are losing their jobs, 633 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,280 Speaker 1: many big companies are figuring out ways to keep people 634 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,879 Speaker 1: at home and to get rid of the workforce now 635 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: that they see that we can work at home and 636 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: be effective. So that really is cash is king. But 637 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 1: the beautiful thing is right now, um home based businesses 638 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: are winning. Everybody should have a home based business. I 639 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: feel like Noah when he was telling everybody to get 640 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: in the art and nobody believed him. And I've been 641 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: saying for the past twelve years at least, it seems 642 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: like every single day everybody needs a home based business. 643 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: And so now is it's time to tap into that creativity. 644 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 1: Now is the time to do that, uh, you know, 645 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: to go after that drink that you never thought you could. 646 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: Now is the time to re energize, to reorganize, to reboot, uh, 647 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 1: and to take the advantage of this time where we 648 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: get to hit the reset button. I love what you 649 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: just said there because it's a blend of two things. 650 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: It's a blend of being conservative and smart with a 651 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: blend of being bold. Right. It's like it's an it's 652 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: let's be smart. Let's say there's someone certaint you're okkase, 653 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:40,959 Speaker 1: so let's let's position ourselves well there. But also let's 654 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: utilize this new opportunity that the world has presented to us, 655 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 1: because I don't want people to just go into a 656 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: hunker down, bunker like life preservation mode, because there are 657 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: tremenous opportunities that are opening up that we have to 658 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 1: see and have to create. But they're there. If you 659 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: look at I think the financial crisis, out of oh 660 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 1: eight there were of the most brilliant companies that came 661 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: out of that crisis. There was I think an eighteen 662 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,479 Speaker 1: month stretch whereas Uber, Twitter, Instagra, a lot of these 663 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: massive companies came out of that stretch of of chaos 664 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 1: in the world, and so this is a unique pocket 665 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: of life for people to see it as an opportunity 666 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: if they can um. On the family front, Hillary, what 667 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 1: are your your clients? What are what are some of 668 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: the biggest issues that you are seeing in relation to 669 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: in relation to relationships, what are people struggling with? Is 670 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: it finances that people are struggling with the most? Is 671 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:39,320 Speaker 1: a connection or too much proximity? What are you seeing 672 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: that people are struggling with the most? Yeah, I think 673 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: the family unit is it's really struggling during this time 674 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 1: in many ways. I mean being all under one roof 675 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 1: and having to manage professional life, personal connections, and in 676 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: most many cases school um can be quite chaotic, and 677 00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: I would say there are a lot of reports of anxiety. 678 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: Family is anxious and anxious about the way in which 679 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 1: their life paradigm has shifted, Anxious about doing homeschooling properly, 680 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 1: anxious about feeling somewhat disconnected in their relationships. Although we're 681 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: all spending more time together, there's enough stress and enough 682 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 1: anxiety that that time has been somewhat compromised. So I 683 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 1: would say there's a myriad of vicious that have come 684 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 1: come up, but those are sort of the highlights that 685 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: I've been hearing quite frequently. You do you see a 686 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: lot of people and did you see people struggling because 687 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 1: they haven't accepted this new norm yet that they want 688 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: what was? Is that causing people to struggle that they 689 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: haven't accepted like, Okay, it looks like we're probably going 690 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 1: like this for another six years or a month or 691 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 1: six months or a year um, and I need to 692 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: somewhat embrace this new kind of norm versus wishing what was? Yes, 693 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: and and people m yeah. And in my view, I 694 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: call that grief in part. You know that many people 695 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 1: are still grieving and appropriately so the loss of what was, 696 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: and in some ways we have to honor that process 697 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 1: and not catapult them or push them into a place 698 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: they're not ready for. But right there's this balance of 699 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 1: acceptance and acknowledgement so you can be fluid and adjust. 700 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,760 Speaker 1: So I find that to be a really difficult task 701 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,600 Speaker 1: for most individuals and most family units. Is that balance 702 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: between grieving over what was and it's appropriate. There's there's 703 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:40,280 Speaker 1: no blueprint for this. Never has the world been affected 704 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:44,280 Speaker 1: in such a such a unique, incredulous way. But also 705 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: we have to show resilience and we have to help 706 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,600 Speaker 1: our family find a new way of being. So I 707 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 1: absolutely think that's at the heart of what a lot 708 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: of families and individuals are struggling with. UM. Yeah, I 709 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 1: agree so too, and and but I think there's a 710 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 1: tremendous amount of optimism for the future, but in certain 711 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 1: times it's very difficult to see that one of these times. 712 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: Could this could be one of those times? Um, Lynn, 713 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: what are you seeing with have you seen the financial 714 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,759 Speaker 1: blowback to the family structure the connection there, like potentially 715 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 1: if one person loses their job, is that putting more 716 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 1: stress on families and relationships? Um? What are you seeing 717 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: in relation to finances related to the relationship? UM, I 718 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: definitely think it's causing stress for the family, particularly when 719 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 1: one person loses the job, and if that person was 720 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: the breadwinner um. And quite frankly, whether they were the 721 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: breadwinner or not. UM. In today's times, every penny that 722 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:48,479 Speaker 1: comes as the household it usually has a purpose. So 723 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:52,760 Speaker 1: for those two parented working homes, every dollar has a purpose, 724 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: whether it be for the household, whether it be for childcare, 725 00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 1: UM or college for you know, a college student. I 726 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 1: really think that this is the time right now to 727 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: hit the reset button and to hit uh to set 728 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 1: new expectations. Unfortunately, I don't think we really understand or 729 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 1: that we really get a chance to appreciate the fact 730 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: that many of us were probably addicted to a lifestyle 731 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,560 Speaker 1: that although we miss it and it felt good like 732 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 1: a drug, it wasn't good for us, right. But you 733 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,799 Speaker 1: still have the attachment to whatever the thing was, and 734 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 1: so having the opportunity to go cold turkey is giving 735 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: us an opportunity to see what we have left. And 736 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: although that may be a difficult task. I think one 737 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 1: of the things that families are doing. I was on 738 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: another national news show a couple of weeks ago, and 739 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 1: I was talking to the parents about staying relevant in 740 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 1: their jobs, and then I was talking to them about 741 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: hiring their kids to work in their home based business. 742 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,200 Speaker 1: You have your kids at home all day anyway, the 743 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: I R. S says, you can hire those kids to 744 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: work in your business. You can pay each child up 745 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,839 Speaker 1: to twelve thousand, four hundred dollars a year. That money 746 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: is a tax right off to you. And now you 747 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 1: can take that money that you're paying the child, and 748 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 1: they can pay for all their own things that you 749 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: were gonna pay for anyway, but you didn't get a 750 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 1: tax fright off for those things like that computer for 751 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:16,240 Speaker 1: the online learning, or private school tuition, or a video 752 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: game or what have you. So this presents an opportunity 753 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 1: for families to kind of work together more cohesively in 754 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: a different way, learning something new. My youngest daughter is 755 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,720 Speaker 1: a sophomore at college. They came home spring break, didn't 756 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 1: go back until a couple of weeks ago, But she's 757 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: a nineteen years old sophomore in college. She's been working 758 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: for me since she was six six years old. Uh yes, 759 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: she and her sister's Her sister was seven, her older 760 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 1: sister was eleven, and they've been working for me since 761 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 1: that time. So they understand the value of money, they 762 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,439 Speaker 1: understand entrepreneurialism. And I, for one, if I had kids 763 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: at home, I don't know how much time they'd spend 764 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 1: learning ABC's in one, two, three, but they'd certainly be 765 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: working in the home based business getting an entrepreneurial experience, 766 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 1: helping the family. And I think all those kind of 767 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: things that we're learning that are new are bringing us together. 768 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: If we give it, give it a chance. Gold That 769 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,800 Speaker 1: was wonderful. So many of our listeners are probably thinking, Boom, 770 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:14,840 Speaker 1: I got three kids here that are now going to 771 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: work because Lynn Richardson gave me the green light to 772 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 1: put them to work. Absolutely and and the Department of 773 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: Labor says, so the Department of Labor, and people don't realize. 774 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 1: The Department of Labor says that a child of any 775 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 1: age can work in entertainment. That's why you see babies 776 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: on diaper commercials and baby food commercials. A child of 777 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 1: any age can work in entertainment theatrical production. So if 778 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: you have a home based business that you need to 779 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 1: promote on the internet, uh, then you can put your 780 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: child in the video. They can actor perform in that 781 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: and it's perfectly legal, ethical and moral. The Department of 782 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,920 Speaker 1: Labor also says that a child can work in a 783 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 1: parents home based business. A home based business, not your restaurant, 784 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 1: not your corporation that's down the block in the big building. 785 00:44:58,040 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: But a child can work in a home parents home 786 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:02,400 Speaker 1: based business at any age for any number of hours, 787 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,440 Speaker 1: any day of the week, any time of the day, um, 788 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 1: except for an agricultural infirming. So that presents a huge 789 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: opportunity and and some of the parents say, well, what 790 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,719 Speaker 1: can my two year old do? I say, any child 791 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 1: that can work in iPad can work a job. Any 792 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: child you can work in iPads, you have a job. Okay, Um, 793 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: you'd be surprised what young kids could do. They cause 794 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: they can help with social media. You're slightly older, kids 795 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,440 Speaker 1: can help with filing and research and paperwork, and then 796 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 1: your teens, your preteens and up. They My my oldest daughter, 797 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: she graduated in north Western She's been running my whole 798 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 1: business and she was thirteen doing data entry and spreadsheets 799 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: and things like that. So we really get to tap 800 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,840 Speaker 1: into another part of who we are. I think it's exciting. 801 00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 1: I haven't seen a family where the kids aren't excite 802 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 1: excited about getting their own paycheck. Now that means you 803 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:56,720 Speaker 1: have to buy your own things, including your own Christmas toys, 804 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: so you know that can be a bummer. But the 805 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 1: truth is there are ways for us to work together 806 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:06,880 Speaker 1: during this pandemic and win financially. Beautiful, very well, said 807 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 1: um Hilary. I want to ask you about because we 808 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 1: had two previous guests on that we were talking about 809 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:16,399 Speaker 1: how to manage cope and deal with anxiety. And I'm 810 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 1: actually right now going through and doing some counseling and 811 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 1: therapy myself. I'm working through some of the emotions that 812 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 1: I still have remnants of being let go from hockey 813 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: being able to retire as a professional athlete. So I'm 814 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: a big advocate for therapy and for counseling. UM, have 815 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 1: you seen an increase in your demand during this time 816 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:40,359 Speaker 1: or are people too shy to ask for help. I've 817 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 1: absolutely seen an increase during this time, and a notable one, 818 00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 1: and and I'm you know, it's unfortunate, but I'm pleased 819 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 1: that people are reaching out and I there I think 820 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 1: it's so important to begin with self compassion. In my opinion, 821 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: I think people feel afraid of their anxiety, feel resistant 822 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: to their anxiety, and as a result, it can become paralyzing. 823 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: And and so I really encourage folks to be super 824 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 1: in touch with quote symptoms that they're having, you know, 825 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: ruminating thoughts, uh, physical symptoms, heart raising, stomach lurching, etcetera, 826 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 1: that are invasive and consistent, and to begin with that 827 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: self compassion that like, something's going on here, there's something 828 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 1: that I need to pay attention to and get to 829 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 1: the bottom of and you can start with sort of 830 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 1: a self care program that might consist of, you know, 831 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 1: sharing feelings or concerns with trusted others, exercising, journaling, meditating, etcetera. 832 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: But if those symptoms continue and are persistent, there's no 833 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 1: shame in reaching out for help. Now is the time 834 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,880 Speaker 1: to do it. It's amazing what you just said. I 835 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:50,959 Speaker 1: started smiling because you basically just shared what I've really 836 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,479 Speaker 1: gone through. One of the first things that I've learned 837 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:55,759 Speaker 1: that I learned and I am still learning, is to 838 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 1: have compassion and empathy for myself for what I went 839 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,759 Speaker 1: through with being released from hockey. I didn't get to 840 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:07,320 Speaker 1: say I retire, I'm tired, I'm done. I was released. 841 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 1: I was told Brooks you you are done um, and 842 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,840 Speaker 1: so I never gave myself empathy. I never had empathy 843 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:20,440 Speaker 1: or compassion for that kind of trauma UM in my life. 844 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 1: And often I think as individuals were very compassionate, very 845 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,960 Speaker 1: empathetic for other people, but for ourselves we really overlook it. 846 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 1: And I feel like a lot of people are doing 847 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 1: that right now, and I want this podcast to encourage 848 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: people to have empathy for yourself compassion. Hey, the world 849 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: is a tough place right now. It is like the 850 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: world is a really tough place. How do we get 851 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:43,880 Speaker 1: people that are struggling with that to have empty and 852 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 1: compassion for themselves to open up? Hillary? Yeah, I I 853 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:52,359 Speaker 1: think it's a risk of being vulnerable, you know, being 854 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 1: vulnerable with oneself, acknowledging that I'm not always strong, I 855 00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,279 Speaker 1: don't always have all the answers. I do struggle, I 856 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 1: do get sad, I don't know everything. You know, being 857 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:07,800 Speaker 1: able to be vulnerable and having a belief that vulnerability 858 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,359 Speaker 1: can lead to a better path, can lead to more 859 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 1: connection with oneself and others. It is a tough ask, 860 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 1: There's no question. I think there's a societal edict um 861 00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,280 Speaker 1: in in many circles that we should um show ourselves 862 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 1: being composed and have it all together and not demonstrate 863 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 1: our so called weaknesses meaning regular feelings. You know, all 864 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: of us have fears and anxieties and depression, and why 865 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't it be exacerbated in some cases given where we 866 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:41,240 Speaker 1: are today, And so just just being open and willing 867 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 1: to access that vulnerability, and I would just encourage that 868 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 1: when we push down symptoms, when we push them down um, 869 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 1: difficult feelings, painful feelings. We get symptoms, is what I 870 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 1: mean to say. We get symptoms whatever those symptoms are anxiety, depression, 871 00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: drinking too much, fighting with our loved ones, disconnecting, except 872 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 1: or symptoms will show up one way any other. So 873 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 1: instead of pushing them down and having kind of emotional 874 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 1: rent to pay later, let them come up and out. 875 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 1: And if it gets scary and we need support, calling 876 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,760 Speaker 1: a friend or reach out to a therapist, and and 877 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 1: and on the other end of it, it could be 878 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 1: something really, really magical. I've never heard someone be vulnerable 879 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,719 Speaker 1: and regret it later in the long run. Never that 880 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:28,879 Speaker 1: was so well said, well said, go ahead, I would 881 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 1: I would like to just throw in there. There's a 882 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,600 Speaker 1: flip side to that as well. There are people who 883 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: are doing really well who also experience UM fear of success. 884 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 1: This has been one of the busiest times in life 885 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 1: for me. This has been one of the busiest times 886 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,879 Speaker 1: for many of my colleagues that I know. I run 887 00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:52,920 Speaker 1: an entertainment firm in Hollywood, and we're selling shows and 888 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 1: contracts and so on and so forth. So while people 889 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 1: have figured out how to pivot UM, there's also a 890 00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 1: success factor and I remember one night feeling really afraid, like, 891 00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,799 Speaker 1: oh my god, this is everything, It's so much, it's 892 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:08,799 Speaker 1: coming so fast. What if I failed? Like literally I 893 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:12,920 Speaker 1: was afraid of failing, literally afraid of failing and to 894 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 1: be able to know what that is, because sometimes if 895 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 1: you're not honest with yourself, you can divert that to 896 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:21,759 Speaker 1: something else. And then I called a friend and I said, 897 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm afraid to succeed. Like who says that? Um, I 898 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,839 Speaker 1: just happened to have the awareness to get it out. 899 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't a formal therapy session, but I did feel 900 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 1: like I had been counseled. It's a same girl, get 901 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,000 Speaker 1: it together, You're okay, take one step at a time. 902 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,760 Speaker 1: Because what was also happening, or what has been happening 903 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 1: during the pandemic is those businesses that did get a 904 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,480 Speaker 1: chance to thrive. We had to thrive in a pressure cooker. 905 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:50,400 Speaker 1: We had to thrive in uh conditions. I mean this 906 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:53,760 Speaker 1: was early in the pandemic, helping people with their finances 907 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 1: and there's no shipping, there's no movement, there's no restaurants, 908 00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 1: there's nothing open. How do you get information to people? 909 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:01,920 Speaker 1: How do ship things? How do you so and then 910 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 1: there's a massive amount of people coming and asking for 911 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 1: help daily, all day, every single day. So it goes 912 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 1: both ways. Where there are those who are feeling um, 913 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 1: extremely vulnerable and confused and not knowing what to do, 914 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 1: and then there's those who are feeling vulnerable because they 915 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,919 Speaker 1: have too much to do and are overwhelmed and don't 916 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 1: know how to handle that success either. So thank you 917 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,279 Speaker 1: for that. That was really eye opening to hear and 918 00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: to receive again. M that I have friends too that 919 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:33,319 Speaker 1: were very very successful right prior to COVID and and 920 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,279 Speaker 1: bought new homes, bought lake houses, things and then have 921 00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: been able to enjoy those during these times and then 922 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:43,800 Speaker 1: feel guilty because they've actually really enjoyed the quarantine time. 923 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 1: And that's another set of problems too. It's um, I'm like, well, 924 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 1: share it, share the wealth with with people that are 925 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 1: less fortunate there like I am, I'm employing, I've employed 926 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 1: more gardeners I have. I've brought on this person to 927 00:52:56,040 --> 00:53:00,399 Speaker 1: help on trying to create opportunity.
