I'm I'm a softie, So I lets to 44 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: start look around. I'm like, I know this stuff, this 45 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: is gonna be epic. So I was taking pictures. Actually, 46 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: when we did the first one, we didn't really have 47 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 1: like cell phones. Um, you know, like now there's cell 48 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: phones on sets and everybody's reporting to everything. Back then, 49 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 1: like when we did the first one, that wasn't really 50 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: you know, I was fourteen years ago, man, it wasn't 51 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: very very popular. So I was using my laptop and 52 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: I've got like all this video behind the scenes of 53 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: the cast, like interviewing people and stuff that's like on 54 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: my laptop, which it's probably it's probably valuable at this point. 55 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: It's probably gold, right, it's probably gold. I'm sure it 56 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 1: is to something to through a certain generation. So during COVID, 57 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: we do all of these podcasts, the how Man Thing 58 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: podcast via zoom because we can't personally see everybody, we 59 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: can't go to the studio. Everything shuts down obviously, so 60 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: we do the how Man Think podcast via zoom. And 61 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: I'm always like curious and entertained when I see what 62 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: background people have where they're where they're comfortable, where they're sitting, 63 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: where they're at. Are they traveling somewhere that they do 64 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: an airbnb somewhere? Are they home? But you are coming 65 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: from your your home gym there, which I'm just a 66 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: fan of. I love that You've got the heavy bag, 67 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: you got the what's the little the wrap, the punch, 68 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: the feedbag, feedbag. Yeah, I got the speedbag, Get the 69 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: heavy bag, get a surfboard in there. Uh, tell me, 70 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: because I love home gyms, tell me a little bit 71 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: about your home gym. Why you built it? Well, Um, 72 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: I've done cross fit for a two years and I 73 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: kind of fell in love with some of the like 74 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: Olympic lifts and and that kind of stuff, and and 75 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: and then that got me into mobility, which the gym 76 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: never did. You know, I was like a total gym 77 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: right guy, just kind of did the you know, the 78 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: bro splits and all that kind of stuff. But then 79 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: when I started doing cross it was like, oh man, 80 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: my mind opened up to this whole uh kind of 81 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: a new idea of you know, body weight fitness and 82 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: Olympic lifting and compound lifts and that kind of stuff, 83 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: And my body felt so much better and I felt younger, 84 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: and I felt more like an athlete, and I hurt 85 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: my back and my neck in the gym so many times. 86 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: And then when I started, luckily, I was at a 87 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: good crossbit box, which is you know, that's kind of debatable, 88 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: I guess is when people are in a bad spot, 89 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: it can be dangerous. But it was in a good 90 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: spot that got good training. Started doing dead lifts and 91 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: back squats and that kind of stuff that made your 92 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: body really strong, and I haven't had an injury since 93 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: like seven years later. It's amazing. Um, I do it 94 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: every day. I love it. I was as a professional 95 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: athlete would train, but now I still trained as much 96 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: more than I ever did, And that you're right, Um, 97 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: I love that you train at home, especially now. I 98 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: always encourage people like have some sort of at least 99 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: a minimal I get the idea of wanting to go 100 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 1: to a gym for community and inspiration and stuff like that, 101 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: but it's also super convenient. You're married, you have three kids, 102 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: you know, working dad, Like, it's also super convenient just 103 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: to head out to the graduate hit an hour of 104 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: something if you have it right there. So um, dude, 105 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get together and throw down. Yeah, let's do it, man, 106 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: let's do it. You know, honestly, Brooks, I don't think 107 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: enough people are talking about during COVID, like to take 108 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 1: care of your body, get enough sleep, you put better 109 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 1: food in your body, you know, like we've got to 110 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: be taking care of ourselves and build that immune system. 111 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: And I don't know why, you know, a lot more 112 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: people aren't talking about this. Yeah, I don't know either, man. 113 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: It's unfortunately health gets pushed down the totem pole. And 114 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: I assume so even more when people get married and 115 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: have kids, you know, they sacrifice their own health for it. 116 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: But you need to be around. You want to be 117 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: able to lift grandkids and great grandkids. You need to 118 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: be around. I did a post the other day on 119 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 1: my Instagram talking how everybody, regardless of your twenty years 120 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: old or eighty years old, should dead left right right. 121 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: If you're an eighty year old grandpa, I want to 122 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: be able to pick band over and pick my grandkid 123 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: off the ground and pick them up. That's essentially and right, 124 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I think there's so 125 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: much I love that you're into it. When did you 126 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: find fitness? Like did you just find it recently. You 127 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: said you started doing CrossFit seven years ago, but has 128 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 1: it always been a part of your life. Uh No, 129 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: not at all. When I was a little tiny guy 130 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: in Uh yeah, I joke about this because in high school, Um, 131 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: I was like punked around a lot. I was like 132 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: a hundred pounds in high school and bullied quite a bit. 133 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: Like like I mean, I got like a bunch of 134 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: stories like just getting punched in the face by cowboys 135 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: and rednecks and the wrestling team and the rodeo team, 136 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: and oh man, I could go on like good, good times, 137 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: a lot of character building. Man, I was blessed. And 138 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: then uh and then I go on to college that 139 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: I gained like eighty pounds and I grew four more 140 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: inches and and then again into acting and then I 141 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: play the bullies on TV. And now everybody says, oh, 142 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: I know I knew guys like you in high school. Man, 143 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 1: Now trust me, that was not me. That was not me. 144 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: I was the guy getting a hit. So there's just 145 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: there's just no justice, you know. But I got into 146 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: it much later in life. I just I don't know, 147 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know why it wasn't I got 148 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: maybe because it was small and or the sports I 149 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: was doing weren't really into I was playing soccer and scheme, 150 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: so it's not like a big wait gym sports necessarily. 151 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: How have you found how have you found discovering this 152 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: passion for like fitness and health. How have you found 153 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: that that's impacted your life as a in career wise? 154 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: But then also like obviously it's allowed you to play 155 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: certain roles as a bully, right, It's like being a 156 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: strong man allows you to pay a bully. But but 157 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: what about just in your overall general life? How have 158 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: you found that how have you prioritized health, especially with 159 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: a wife and three kids and a job, Like, I 160 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: don't know, just what's what's your dance with I'm always 161 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: curious to see how people what their relationship is with 162 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: with physical fitness and health. Yeah. Well, I'm really a 163 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: really strong belief that it's got to be a habit 164 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: and it's got to be a routine. And from nine 165 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: of us that means morning. It's got to be a 166 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: part of your morning routine. Otherwise it's just like if 167 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: I don't do in the morning, it's like, you know, 168 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: probably chance I won't do it at all during the day. 169 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: It just just too complicated during the day. So I 170 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: always encourage people find a routine, find system that works. 171 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: Now for me, like I get up real early with 172 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: my kids to do the kind of the the uh 173 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: the routine of making breakfast and taking multiple shifts, drives 174 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: to school to drop off kids. But my last kid, 175 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: um goes to Burbank High School, and uh, when I 176 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: dropped him off, I'm a block away from my gym, 177 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: so I can literally go. You know, I'm dressed, I'm 178 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 1: ready to go. I've taken on my you know, you 179 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: know morning routine, you know waters and you know nutrition. 180 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: So I go drop him off and go straight to 181 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: the gym. And if it's not a habit, and if 182 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: it's not like that, forget about it. Yeah, So that's 183 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: for me, that's the only way. Like you you have 184 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: a you have a you must have a routine, right, 185 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: if you're consistent, you have Yeah. And and morning is 186 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: the best time. Um, we would train for support for 187 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: professional hockey, we would train in the morning. That was 188 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: the main practice and workout time. Also, just from a 189 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: from a scientific standpoint, you have the highest amount of 190 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: testerone testosterone present in your body early in the morning, 191 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: and as it goes on, your testosterone and your metabolism 192 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: slowed down as the day progresses. So if you're to 193 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: workout in the morning, you will get the maximum benefit 194 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: possible from that workout because your body is rested, you 195 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: slept last night, you're rested, you have the highest testosterone levels, 196 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: your metabolic rate as as high as it can be 197 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 1: right there, so you're getting the best benefits of working 198 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: out in the morning. Side, I'm always prioritized in the 199 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: work in the morning. Before I came on this call 200 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: with you right now, took my dog for a three 201 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: and a half mile trail run just out the mountains 202 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 1: here in Utah.

I get 329 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: to be an influence on like a whole variety of 330 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: kids in the community, and it's just like, it's unbelievably fulfilling. 331 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: So now when people say to me, what's the more 332 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: most important to your life? Are like, you know, the 333 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: best things in life are free, you know. I started 334 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: thinking about that kind of stuff and I'm like, man, 335 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: being having a kid has has opened the door to 336 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: service to me and and what I've done now that 337 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: kids probably not because how do you know, But then 338 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: you start spending this time as a coach and serving 339 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: the community and serving these people, and then you're you know, 340 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: you're getting rewarded by the parents and they're you know, 341 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: they're so kind and so sweet to you. But that's 342 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: that's you know, that's just gravy. The real meat of 343 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: it is like these kids, like seeing these kids being 344 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: affected by the way you're you're touching your lives and 345 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: like it's just I've just I've absolutely loved it. It's 346 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: it's it's incredibly fulfilling and definitely the most important part 347 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: of my life with with my pome family. Dude, you 348 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: got me so fired up. You want me so my 349 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: one of my best friends, Christie Sowan, plays on this 350 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: soccert They have an adult league soccer team called the 351 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 1: Salmon Rolls and they've won the league championship twice and 352 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: she always gets me to try and play. She's like, Brooks, 353 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: come play with the Samuel in a viewer just like 354 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: watching you guys play, and like, um, it's fun to 355 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: be a spectator because my whole life I've played. But 356 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: listen to you talk here, coach, you got me fired up. 357 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: I'm thinking I might get the famine roles, play some soccer. 358 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: I might get you come in as a guest coach, 359 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, and UM, so you might have just come 360 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 1: in there. Let's do it. Um, But I also want 361 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 1: to give you a compliment. I think you're ahead of 362 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 1: your time. Something that's going on right now in professional 363 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: sports is the coaching and professional sports and professional hockey 364 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: that I've seen anyway. Um, they're starting to coach the person, 365 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: not the player. So they're spending so much more time 366 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: and resources on developing characteristics of the human being. Meanwhile 367 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: also developing their physical talents and abilities, because what they 368 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: would see is you'd see these amazingly talented athletes, these 369 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: guys with world class skills and talents that all of 370 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: a sudden would forget how to use them, or they 371 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 1: would fail at high stress, high pressure moments. And it 372 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: was it was the study of why is this happening? 373 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 1: Why is this person so equipped with these physical abilities 374 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: that all of a sudden freeze and they can't use them. 375 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: Is because there's some sort of character flaw, there's some 376 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 1: sort of lack of confidence or belief in themselves or 377 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 1: lack of resilience or whatever it is, or trust in 378 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: a teammate. And so they've really started to work with 379 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: athletes off the ice, away from the rink, sports psychologists, therapists, 380 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: anybody to help them develop and become better young men 381 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: and women, and that alone has transferred into more preferensive 382 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: proficiency in their athletic performance. So I love the fact 383 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: that you're saying there's opportunities everywhere for an invested coach 384 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: to really shape and sculpt these young minds and these 385 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: attitudes and perspectives that alone will make them better soccer players. Yes, yeah, 386 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: I love that. Man. That's that's super interesting, and it's 387 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: you're a hundred percent right on your perspective. Like I've 388 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 1: seen that, I know, Like that really resonates with me 389 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: because you see the mental game on even the best 390 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: of athletes, like the very best you know you have, 391 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes you have like one to three, like 392 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: real key players that really can affect the whole team. Um, 393 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: and you see them sometimes they just they get in 394 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: their their own head and even at a young age, 395 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: these young kids. I mean over time, like ten, eleven, 396 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: twelve years old, even they struggle with this mental game 397 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: and they feel the pressure of the team and they 398 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 1: you know, they they they're really hard on themselves and 399 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 1: they make it really personally. It's like, oh, man, so 400 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: many opportunities to build that strong mental game. I love it. Man, 401 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: you're a modern day coach. That's why you're the coach. 402 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: I love it. I love it. Here.

Yeah, 492 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: that's a it's a great question, because you're right, everybody's 493 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 1: in a different place on different levels and has different 494 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: variety of challenges and things like that. I think gratitude 495 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 1: is the key man. Gratitude is the key. Um. We 496 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: are in control of what we focus on, we're on, 497 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: We're in control of what we look at where we 498 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: where we put our eyes, where we put our focus 499 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: or focus goes energy flows. You know what are we 500 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: gonna stare at what? Well? You are gonna look at 501 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: our family? Are we gonna look at what's missing? A 502 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna look at our you know, our ore dwindling 503 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: bank account. We're gonna look at like hey, I'm above ground, 504 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 1: I'm standing you know, I'm standing there. I'm in control. 505 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: I can I make the choices in my life. Were 506 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: in a free country where we can go do whatever 507 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: we want to do. Like, there's so many things to 508 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: be grateful for, and honestly, I think it's a wonderful 509 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 1: time to reevaluate family and friends. Those things are those 510 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: are the things that won't fail you, you know. I mean, 511 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: sure you'll have challenges and and and uh it might 512 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: feel like fail sious at times, but man, if you 513 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 1: can reevaluate like the fact that you have a family, 514 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 1: or like if you have damage relationships, go fix those relationships, 515 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: like you know, nurture them, you know, um grow them, 516 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: and you know if they're there and they're weak, you know, Brooks, 517 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: I know talking to an athlete, like I know you 518 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: get this, but I love the analogy of the gym 519 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: because it's so visual and it's like, okay, you walk 520 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: in the gym and your biceps week, what are you 521 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 1: gonna do a bunch of these well, okay, yeah, you're 522 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: a bunch of those is gonna grow. You put some 523 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: pressure on there, you make it hard, you make it 524 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: difficult to pull that on. Okay, now you're gonna have 525 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: a lot more growth. So how off to do that 526 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: every stinking day? Man? You can't. You don't work out 527 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: once a month or once a year. Every day work 528 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 1: on that little muscle. So if you have a little 529 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: if you have a tiny little bit of gratitude, that's okay. 530 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: Just recognize what you're at.

Okay, that's okay. 534 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: Just work that muscle.

And when I I kind of have 561 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: a couple of pillars in my life. And one of 562 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: the pillars in my life that when I noticed that 563 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: my when I start feeling overwhelmed or angry or like 564 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: anxious or something, the first thing that dissipates in my 565 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: life is my gratitude. Right, That's the first thing that 566 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 1: dissipates where I'm like, wow, I I still have love 567 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: present in my life. I still have like these other 568 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: characteristics present my life, but like gratitude is not president 569 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: of my life. And you know what, when I'm actually 570 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: most grateful, I'm actually my most grateful self during and 571 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: after workouts. I used I used to have this thing 572 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: where when I work out at Have you ever been 573 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: to Brick CrossFit in West Hollywood. Yeah, So outside of 574 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: Brick there was this big dumpster and I had this 575 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: thing where this one summer I was training there for 576 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,880 Speaker 1: to play hockey, and every day that I came out 577 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: of there, if I ever saw a homeless person like 578 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: culling through the dumpster, I would give them the top 579 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: bill in my wallet, whatever it was where there was 580 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: a twenty, whether it was a hundred, whether it was 581 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: a one five, whatever it was, that was my thing 582 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,879 Speaker 1: because I walked out of the gym just feeling immense gratitude, 583 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: and I'd see this person like, I want to give 584 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: them the top bill, and I wouldn't even look at it. 585 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: I just give it to them. I love that. I 586 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,199 Speaker 1: feel so alive and so gratitude is so important in 587 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: my life and keeping it a focus and you, like 588 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: you said, actively working on it, getting touches on it 589 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 1: daily to strengthen that muscle, and then it will become 590 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: more and more prominent. And likewise, it's extremely hard to 591 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 1: hang out and be friends with somebody who is not grateful, 592 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: right because everything album it is. I honestly I struggle 593 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: with that because I've got some friends, I've got a 594 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: friend circle that I honor and cherish and so grateful 595 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: for these guys. But not all of them are really positive, 596 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, some of them are really kind of bad 597 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: at it, And I'm like, oh man, not not not that. 598 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: I mean collectively, really solid characters and really good people. 599 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: So I feel really good about that aspect, you know, 600 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: But I think you have to to your point, you 601 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: have to be cognisation of that you have to be 602 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: aware of that.

I mean, it sounds crazy, 621 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: but you start doing the math, it's totally doable. Um. 622 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: Luckily I have a job that's that allows me to 623 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: you know, the flexibility on that too. So uh.

And it's just 676 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: a daily little touch on gratitude and you do it 677 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: with the sunsets with your kids stuff like like I 678 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 1: just I love I love hearing how families spend time 679 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: together and how you create that family bond between father 680 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: uh and kids, his son or daughter, whatever it is. 681 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: So I commend you man. I Also I also have 682 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: been thinking about this. Give me your thoughts on this 683 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: because you touched on it. I've been thinking about one 684 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: month a year, spending it in a new country every year, 685 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: so that for one month a year, like say I 686 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: was in Hawaii, I could scuba dive every day, so 687 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: it was in Costa Rica, I could surf every day. 688 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,719 Speaker 1: Say I was in Switzerland like a downhill ski every day. 689 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: So if I did this, even if you did this 690 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: for a decade, you would get so proficient at so 691 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 1: many different skills. Yes, you know what I mean immersion, man, Yes, 692 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 1: I think it's a great idea and you can work 693 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: on the language of whatever country you're in. It's it's unbelievable. 694 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,479 Speaker 1: I think it's a I think it's I mean, hey, man, 695 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: if you have the ability to do it, I'd say 696 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: jump on it. Have you done anything else like that 697 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: other than Costa Rica for a month? If you done 698 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: anything else for a month of real immersion with your 699 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: kids and families? We did well. Probably my favorite was 700 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: we did a road trip through Italy for a month 701 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: and that where that was incredible. That was incredible. We started, uh, 702 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: we started up north and like Dolomite Mountains and we 703 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: went all the way down to the Mfi coast and like, 704 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: oh man, it was yeah. We saw you know, Venice 705 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: and Rome and Tuittera and like you know, like so 706 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: many different makes places and like the kids got to see. 707 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: You know. The thing is, if you're there long enough, 708 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: like we went to this little town Nazza and Chiquitarts 709 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: probably my favorite town, one of my favorites and all 710 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: of it. Small town and the kids play soccer on 711 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: the beach there.

And so sure enough, 714 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 1: over time we were there long enough. Like the local 715 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 1: little I'm talking of young kids, you know, Tan Lemon twelve, 716 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: they don't play soccer with the tourists.

So you know that I 775 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,479 Speaker 1: know that I had. I remember a couple of things 776 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 1: that's still in the back of my mind of some 777 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: kind of some big ideas I had that I didn't execute. 778 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: And they're the only things that I regret about being 779 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 1: that age. The other mistakes like oh whatever, you know, 780 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 1: I've you know what, I've made up for other mistakes, 781 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: But it's the mistakes to haunt me of the ones 782 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: that I didn't just go for it. Yeah. Mine, when 783 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about that question, I think I would go 784 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: with I think about myself at a teen, very driven, 785 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 1: extremely driven, UM, wanting to make the NHL, and I 786 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: ended up doing it the next year turn pro I've 787 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 1: seen UM at nineteen. Yeah, I would say get it all. 788 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,839 Speaker 1: That would be my three words, like like don't ever 789 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: stop get it oh? Oh three word? Oh I see, Yes, 790 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: that's great all because that's what I wanted in my 791 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: athletic career, I went after everything I wanted. I blew 792 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: through fear, blew through insecurity, developed resilience, confidence, improved my 793 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,320 Speaker 1: role each year, you know, elevated myself, develop my skills, 794 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: honed by skills, my craft, like all of it. And 795 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 1: I would encourage people. I don't want people to think 796 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: that they can't have everything in life that they want. 797 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: You know, you bust your tail for it. But I 798 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 1: want people to be inspired to not have to say, well, 799 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: I can't have a family and have the career, or 800 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: I can't have the career and also have balance in 801 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: my life full you get it all or work for it. 802 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 1: The other thing that I would really stress to myself this, 803 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: oh this is another thing, um, find a balance of happiness. 804 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 1: Uh huhn't have that so much so with get it all, 805 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 1: with get it all, and then I'd also have like 806 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 1: find the balance of happiness, um, because going for it 807 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: all can consume you and can be toxic. So having 808 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 1: a balance that you know, you know what Brooks you say, 809 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 1: you bring up an interesting point that's maybe not as 810 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 1: popular as trendy. And you know the master classes, you know, 811 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 1: those things that pop up on your Yeah, they're great. 812 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 1: They're great. I was listening to the one from Seawan 813 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: to Rhymes, who's amazing, Like she has like what five 814 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 1: TV shows on on the air right now, and I 815 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: think she's like an incredibly talented and driven woman. Amazing. 816 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: But she says she has a real moment in that thing. 817 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: And she said, look, you know, people say you could 818 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 1: do it all. You can do it all. You can. 819 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: I can have five TV shows on the air and 820 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 1: I can raise all my kids. And she's like, and 821 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,879 Speaker 1: that's that's not true. I don't know I'm paraphrasing. She's like, 822 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,800 Speaker 1: it's not true. If I'm servicing all of my TV shows, 823 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: I'm failing at home. If I'm serving my family what 824 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 1: they need, I'm failing my TV shows. And I said, 825 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,760 Speaker 1: mad respect for her to admit that, like you can't 826 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: have a countless amounts of businesses or whatever else and 827 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:09,480 Speaker 1: also spend all the time in really nurturing your your 828 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 1: young family. You gotta you gotta sort that out, man, 829 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: you gotta figure that out. So to your last phrase, 830 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: like finding that balance is a is a science and 831 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 1: an art form. I think I agree with that. So 832 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: people always say, like we get asked, and I'd like 833 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,720 Speaker 1: to ask you about this. Get asked about work life balance. 834 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 1: People always say, what is that's the golden ticket, right, 835 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: work life balance? And I always say, it's not a balance, 836 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,880 Speaker 1: it's like an integration. And it's the way I describe 837 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: it as like a teeter totterer. You know what a a 838 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 1: teeter totter is? Your kids probably the yea yeah. And 839 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: it's like sometimes you're you're gonna be like way up, 840 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 1: You're gonna be filled with a lot of like family time, 841 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 1: and then it's gonna be like, Okay, it's going back down. 842 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: I gotta do more work, and then it's gonna I've 843 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: I've invested a lot in work and I want to 844 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: go back to family time. So people are looking for 845 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: this like perfect balance where the teeter totter just sits 846 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: right there, and I've never been able to do that. 847 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: I've been like, I'm all in on family, and then 848 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I've been really inspired right now a 849 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: couple of days, and I'm gonna go all in on 850 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 1: work and then back all in on family meanwhile not 851 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: neglecting one or the other. I've been able to find 852 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,879 Speaker 1: that balance, but it's okay to have a little rock 853 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 1: like that versus just have to have it be flat 854 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 1: and balanced. That's how it works. I like that. I 855 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: like that analogy. I think that's really really smart. I 856 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 1: think the key is understanding that this is the goal, 857 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 1: like flat is the goal and a little ride is fun, 858 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 1: and most people in life are not cognizant of that, 859 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: and they're just you know, like, how many people are 860 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately in society today, you know, are really 861 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 1: sort of taught and encourage that it's like money, career, 862 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: business and that's the ultimate and like kids are like, 863 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 1: you know, not that secondary. And I and I of 864 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: course mean probably personally totally disagree. You're gonna find all 865 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: your love, film and habits, joy in the family. But 866 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,360 Speaker 1: you really want, you know, it's it's good to have 867 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: all this other stuff and and to support your family 868 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 1: into you know, thriving the community and that kind of stuff. 869 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 1: So I'm with you, man, get that little that fun, 870 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 1: the fun ride and the team. Yeah you need some 871 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:05,760 Speaker 1: sway in there. That's fun. But yeah, the violence rocking 872 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 1: back and forth is no good. That's gonna throw all 873 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: the kids off part. I want to Here's another question 874 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 1: from a listener. Um, you've you've spoke so much already 875 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 1: to show up about your family. Uh, and briefly you 876 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: mentioned your wife, Robin. Um, she's also a very talented actress. 877 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 1: But here's the question, how did you know Robin was 878 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: the one for you? We get asked that a lot. 879 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: How do you know that your significant other is the one? Well, 880 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 1: this is a funny story. Sorry, it's a long story, 881 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 1: so I'm just gonna tell you a real, really short 882 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: version of it. But um, she walked in to a 883 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 1: room and I saw her from afar and said, I'm 884 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,799 Speaker 1: gonna marry that woman. And I've never done it before 885 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: in my life. I know it's kind of warning cliche 886 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,840 Speaker 1: and everything, but it's totally true. Man. I did a 887 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 1: movie called Me Familiar with her dad. He ended up 888 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: giving me a job. Ernie Lively as at his acting studio. 889 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: I was teaching acting classes from Blake. Lively was in 890 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 1: the class and one day incomes Robin Lively and I 891 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: saw her and I just saw that the energy about 892 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 1: her and just the way she spoke to people, and 893 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: I said, that's her. I'm gonna marry her. And I 894 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: told my parents, I told all my friends. He became 895 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: like a big joke because she had a boyfriend at 896 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 1: the time and I had to watch it. It was 897 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:40,240 Speaker 1: very painful. And uh, years later, years later, we've started 898 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: taking Yeah it's a great story, and uh I've been 899 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 1: a curse to right a movie about it because it's 900 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 1: so painful. Man, I went through it, but I knew it. 901 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: I just felt it. I knew it. I hung in 902 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 1: their persistence a lot of humility and U yeah, I 903 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,359 Speaker 1: know that's not really great practical advice for anybody, but man, 904 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 1: when you know, you know, and she was just such 905 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: a good person. She had such great fun energy and 906 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,919 Speaker 1: it just so that's what lets her get married. Say 907 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: they're like, when you know you know, and people that 908 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:14,839 Speaker 1: are single, they're like, yeah, that sounds like a bunch 909 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 1: of made up stuff, Um, but it is true, Like 910 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: it's it is the truest thing you could say. Um, 911 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: So you knew then, and then it was until a 912 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 1: couple of years later that you actually started dating. And 913 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: that whole time you still believe that and still knew that. Well. 914 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 1: I definitely had moments of doubt and fear and heartbreak 915 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,360 Speaker 1: and a lot of a lot of humility because she 916 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 1: broke up with one boyfriend and got another boyfriend. I 917 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: was like, oh I thought I was in line, but 918 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 1: I wasn't apparently, so uh, you know, I was going 919 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: through that approach of like, okay, all right, all right, 920 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 1: these type of girls, they they're never single, they're never 921 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 1: just hang out single. So I'll develop the friendship, get 922 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 1: that nice foundation of you know. That's what they say, right, 923 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: That's what they say is like all great relationship starts 924 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 1: with good solid friendship. Okay, all right, I'm taking that 925 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: route and and hanging in there and and uh yeah 926 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 1: it's it's ah. It was full of ups and downs 927 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah. You know what a friend once told me, 928 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 1: You can tell if a relationship is alive and going 929 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: to make it by how a person tells a story 930 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 1: about how they met. And so that's interesting being the 931 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 1: life in your eyes. Seeing like when I asked you 932 00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:26,879 Speaker 1: that question, you get excited, like, oh it's a lot, 933 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: it's a long story. I try to make sure, but 934 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: like like instant energy, which still means you're invested and 935 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 1: just completely madly in love. So um. I always remembered 936 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 1: that when somebody told me that, I was like, that's 937 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 1: a really because it is It's a really good barometer 938 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: when you ask somebody when they met the love of 939 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: their life, if they tell it with enthusiasm or if 940 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 1: they just like kind of wow, you know, well, I 941 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 1: gotta say, man, I'm kind of blown away with that perspective. 942 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:56,439 Speaker 1: I think that's very interesting and and dead on. I'm sure. Yeah, 943 00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 1: try it with somebody, Try it with somebody in your life, like, 944 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,479 Speaker 1: just ask that question. Or could be new, could be old, 945 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 1: you know, like sometimes like if you have sometimes you 946 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 1: ask grandparents like how did you meet Grandma? And then 947 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 1: they light up there like oh, and they'd like want 948 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 1: you to sit there, glory. It means that the married 949 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 1: fifty years, they're still in love, you know. Answer so 950 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 1: super like that. Um, Okay, here's another one. Here's another question. 951 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: So um, it's kind of it's I'm trying to relate 952 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 1: it to what you went through but also current. So um. Anyway, 953 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 1: here's the question from the listener. Do guys like chatting 954 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: on the phone with their friend or significant other? And 955 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,240 Speaker 1: what amount of time can a guy tolerate on the phone. 956 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: So I'm guessing this comes from a female, you know, 957 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: So do you like as a guy, do you like, 958 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 1: like say, when you met Robin, did you like chatting 959 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 1: on the phone? How long was long enough? How long 960 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: was interesting? How can we help this lady out with 961 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 1: it's asking this question? Well, I guess, yeah, I guess 962 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: like during those early stages of relationship, you could just 963 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: sit on the phone for a long time. You know. 964 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 1: What's funny. I was just thinking about, like, what are 965 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,840 Speaker 1: my habits because I have a lot of friends that 966 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 1: are that live out of state around the country, and 967 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 1: I'll put on a headset and do stuff while I 968 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: talked to him. You know, I put on my my 969 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: my headsets and and go work out or go you know, 970 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 1: do stuff in the yard or whatever. And like I 971 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 1: could talk for you know, an hour to a buddy, 972 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 1: but not not holding still so much. You know, I 973 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,280 Speaker 1: don't know what that is. I'm gonna have to explore 974 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:31,360 Speaker 1: that a little bit, but it does seem like in 975 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 1: a relationship, like early phases, early stages of the relationship, 976 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:38,239 Speaker 1: that yeah, I think I did.

It's kind of like goes back to 1135 00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 1: my what I'm saying earlier about about high school, like 1136 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 1: I have this, you know, like people have this perception 1137 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 1: of me being this big old bully or like big 1138 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 1: old like sports guy. Now that you know I'm the coach, 1139 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 1: Like that's not I did musical dance theater my entire 1140 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 1: time in high school and got beat up for it, 1141 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 1: you know, and it's like, now I'm that really thinks 1142 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 1: I'm just a bully. What a gift to have. I 1143 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 1: think singing is beautiful. I think dancing is just like 1144 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:09,319 Speaker 1: insanely beautiful. Both are just like I'm not proficient at either. 1145 00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 1: I've never dedicated time to develop either one, but I 1146 00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 1: have such an admiration from both. H Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1147 00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:19,799 Speaker 1: it's it's great. I do love it. I've been thinking 1148 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:23,720 Speaker 1: about doing a little uh on TikTok for quarantine. I'm like, Okay, 1149 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 1: everybody's saying I'll do this for you know again, it 1150 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 1: was like, I'm doing this for my wildcats. I'm doing 1151 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,240 Speaker 1: it for my my people out there. And then what crazy? 1152 00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 1: They got fifty million of views on this on my 1153 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 1: first video. It was like, okay, So I've been thinking 1154 00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 1: about doing like busting out a little song because I 1155 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 1: think people would get a kick out of coaching. Do it, man, 1156 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 1: I get your kids involved, Like, um, I think it'd 1157 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:46,400 Speaker 1: be so cool. I've never done a TikTok. Actually I 1158 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:50,279 Speaker 1: did one TikTok, but um, if I had kids, for sure, 1159 00:56:50,280 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 1: i'd be. I love seeing dad's see Mario Lopez do it. 1160 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,880 Speaker 1: He's done some um Jessica, but does a bunch of 1161 00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 1: their kids stuff like that? Like you see a bunch 1162 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 1: of people doing TikTok's with their kids, I think it's 1163 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 1: just um okay. Next question, Um, this is a relationship one. 1164 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,560 Speaker 1: Should you never go to bed angry or sleep on it? 1165 00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 1: And talk it out in the morning. Oh, I gotta 1166 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 1: I gotta mixed feelings about that one. I think I 1167 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: think maybe a hybrid maybe, you know, like you don't 1168 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,960 Speaker 1: want to go if you could somehow work again, work 1169 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 1: on that muscle, man, work on that muscle of like 1170 00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 1: you never uh, you never want to get to a 1171 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:32,960 Speaker 1: certain level. Like I here's a here's a piece of 1172 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,959 Speaker 1: relationship advice I have for everybody. Don't ever talk about divorce. Don't. 1173 00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 1: That's that's irresponsible. But people do that because it's a 1174 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 1: it's a weapon or it's an ammunition. Right, It's like, oh, yeah, 1175 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:47,320 Speaker 1: well we wo's just get divorced. No that you can't. 1176 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 1: But that's too disrespect less, disrespects your relationship. Don't just 1177 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:52,160 Speaker 1: don't go there. Just don't go there. Like there's a 1178 00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: certain amount of respect, um you need to have for 1179 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 1: your relationship and that you don't say permanent hurtful things 1180 00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 1: like that that are hard to be fact, that are 1181 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 1: going to haunt you later whatever else. So like you know, um, 1182 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 1: trying to go to bed by saying I disagree, let's 1183 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: let's sort it out tomorrow. But I do think like 1184 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 1: trying to you know, look, you're tired. You've gotta get 1185 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:14,960 Speaker 1: up early. There's a there's a clock, and it's like, 1186 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:17,280 Speaker 1: now you've got to resolve this thing. It's sometimes it's 1187 00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 1: not I don't I think it's not a good idea. 1188 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:21,040 Speaker 1: So sometimes it's good to sleep it off. But maybe 1189 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 1: like a certain level of perspective, like I respect you, 1190 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,240 Speaker 1: respect your opinion, I love you, I'm mad at you. 1191 00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:29,560 Speaker 1: Let's go to bed and then then deal with it 1192 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:31,880 Speaker 1: in the morning. It's always interesting to ask people how 1193 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:33,919 Speaker 1: they deal with that, because every couples are different. There's 1194 00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:37,640 Speaker 1: no right or wrong way. People deal with it differently. Um. Yeah, 1195 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 1: but I appreciate that, dude. Okay, lastly, Um, the best 1196 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 1: pickup line you've gotten on a d M um? Have 1197 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 1: you do you get?

Gosh, come on, I mean, you know, 1224 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 1: I mean, it's pretty fun that you can look at 1225 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:25,680 Speaker 1: someone social media and see what they're putting out there. 1226 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 1: You know, you could you could kind of see like, 1227 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 1: oh they are fun, or they guarded, or they try 1228 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 1: to put out too much, you know, too much of 1229 01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 1: a certain thing, or they you know. I mean I 1230 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 1: always tell people like, look, man, you've got to look 1231 01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 1: at personality first. You have to, because that will never 1232 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 1: fail you. It'll be so entertaining and so fulfilling, and 1233 01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 1: you have so much fun. Looks come way down the line, 1234 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 1: they really do. And I know, like when I was 1235 01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 1: in my twenties, I probably didn't think that, but I 1236 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:55,280 Speaker 1: mean I was dating people that maybe I was putting 1237 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 1: looks first at some point in my life. But man, 1238 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 1: what a what a mistake, What a mistake that this. 1239 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,440 Speaker 1: So look at your social mediacity. Who's like fun, who 1240 01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,680 Speaker 1: cracks you up, who's entertaining? And if you can make 1241 01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:06,600 Speaker 1: your decisions based on that, I think you're gonna be 1242 01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 1: served in the long run. I actually think the world 1243 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 1: is waking up to being able to analyze and interpret 1244 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 1: digital energy in a yeah, I totally agree, absolutely, that's 1245 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,200 Speaker 1: well said. Yeah, you can see somebody on social media 1246 01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:21,680 Speaker 1: and you're like, I just have a feeling this person 1247 01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 1: is like really kind, really genuine person just by what 1248 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:26,800 Speaker 1: they're putting out, and then you can see somebody you 1249 01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 1: can be like, I'm just off. I'm just put off 1250 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:31,640 Speaker 1: by what they're putting out. There's something I don't know 1251 01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 1: what it is, but energetically there's something toxic there. And 1252 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 1: I think the world is getting a better uh compass 1253 01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: and navigation point on, like you know, what is truthful, 1254 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:44,720 Speaker 1: what is inauthentic, who's real, who's fake? That kind of stuff. 1255 01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 1: I think digital energy people are really becoming more in 1256 01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 1: tune with digesting it interesting. Yeah, um yeah, okay, last question, 1257 01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:56,680 Speaker 1: brother is I've never asked this question on this show, 1258 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 1: but my last question it's a kind of a journey 1259 01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:00,280 Speaker 1: in the study that I've been on in my own 1260 01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 1: personal life and asking people close to me. Um, what 1261 01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:15,000 Speaker 1: is your personal relationship with happiness? Happiness? Mhm boy, Um, 1262 01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:20,240 Speaker 1: how does happen? What is happiness to you? Well? I guess, 1263 01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 1: I you know, maybe I've spent some time differentiating between 1264 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:28,720 Speaker 1: fun and joy, I guess, and like happiness could be 1265 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:32,560 Speaker 1: both those things could be You're having a lot of fun. Um, 1266 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:36,000 Speaker 1: But but but joy, I mean, I name it whatever 1267 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 1: you want. I guess there there's one that's much more fulfilling, 1268 01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:43,360 Speaker 1: and um, we'll live longer. I think in your in 1269 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:47,960 Speaker 1: your soul, and I like to have fun, Like everybody 1270 01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 1: knows me. It's like that dude likes that fun. I mean, 1271 01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:52,040 Speaker 1: as you saw Brooks, like I got you know, I 1272 01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:55,240 Speaker 1: got surfboards, and I got you know, wakes boat and 1273 01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 1: like you know, motorcycles. Got but I've got seven dirt 1274 01:02:57,840 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 1: bikes on my garage, like you know, like I like 1275 01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:01,080 Speaker 1: to have fun. Man, like I left to have fun 1276 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 1: my kids and know that I like to have fun. Um, 1277 01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 1: But also, uh, it's the more fulfillings of the more 1278 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:13,520 Speaker 1: more important um is the the relationships, you know, Like 1279 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 1: the true sense of happiness and joy and fulfillment is serving. 1280 01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:21,600 Speaker 1: And I think that if there's one thing I've learned 1281 01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,720 Speaker 1: in my life is that pursuing something fun or thrilling 1282 01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:28,520 Speaker 1: is fleeting.
