Let's romance the fuck 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:07.440 out of our lives and our mornings and our art. 0:02:08.240 --> 0:02:11.480 Let's say yes to the romance, but not the romance. 0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:15.720 We were brought up to believe in the romance of ourselves, 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:19.600 the romance of living, the romance of the way we 0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:22.040 move and the way we dress and the way we 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:27.000 see ourselves, the romance of cafes and the romance of becoming, 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:30.480 the romance of all the people we are yet to meet, 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.080 and all the ways we are yet to try on. 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:38.359 Let's romance our lives. Because when we romance ourselves, we 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:43.720 fall for ourselves too. Brook solace, guys, Today we are 0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:49.840 chatting romanticizing the fuck out of our lives. That was 0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:53.640 the most beautiful quote. I had to read it to you, guys, 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:56.880 because we saw it on Instagram and we had already 0:02:56.880 --> 0:03:00.840 decided to do this podcast. About romance your life, and 0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:03.280 it just we're like, oh my god, this is perfect. 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:07.440 Thank you Jamie for finding that one. So today, guys, 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:12.040 let's chat romanticizing our lives. So, if you have social media, 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.320 I'm guessing you do. If you listen to this podcast, 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:20.919 especially like TikTok, or you enjoy watching reels on Instagram, 0:03:21.000 --> 0:03:25.920 you would notice the algorithm is really pushing these ten 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:30.960 to thirty second videos of that girl. I actually have 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:33.840 an episode on that girl, which I will link the 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:35.840 show notes because it's all about how to be that 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:39.960 girl and how to have magnetic energy. And it's a 0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:43.720 good it's one of our most downloaded episodes. But basically 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:49.080 that content is really being pushed and honestly like they're 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:54.400 doing very mundane things, but it just looks fucking cool, 0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:59.360 Like it looks like they have their life together, like 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:03.160 their you know a girl who and if you don't 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:06.240 know what I'm talking about, So basically, she wakes up, 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:09.840 she makes her coffee in this like really cute cup. 0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:12.880 You know, there's usually a bunch of flowers somewhere, she 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:17.919 puts some cute active wear, meditates journals. You feel like 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:20.479 she's got her life together and you feel like she's 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:24.039 a bit fab and let's be honest, like you want 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.000 to be her. Like if you haven't got your life together, 0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:27.640 you watch one of those and you're like, oh my god, 0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:29.880 I need to get my life together. And it just 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:34.599 looks like she's, yeah, really loving life. She's honestly doing 0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:38.000 the most fundane things, but it just looks like she 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:40.320 has a great life. You know, you can you can 0:04:40.360 --> 0:04:43.760 buy aesthetically pleasing things that make you feel a certain way, 0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:46.680 a no pot of coffee. It can literally be that 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:50.040 small and simple, or it could be making something a ritual. 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.440 At the end of the episode, I will put in 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:57.200 some snippets because we went into the NH office and 0:04:57.240 --> 0:04:59.720 we ask the n H girls like how do they 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:04.200 roam fanticize their lives? And they were all such small rituals, 0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:06.520 but they were so beautiful. So you'll you'll hear that 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:09.680 at the end. So it doesn't have to be anything 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:12.480 crazy and you don't actually have to go buy things. 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:17.119 It's just about what is meaningful to you. And also, 0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:20.280 can I just touch on something. Maybe it's not that 0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.640 you like, you know, pretty things or things to look 0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:26.159 in a certain way. Maybe it's just like you like 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.560 your environment clean or whatever it is. You've got to 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:33.479 find what kind of like tickles your fancy and go 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:37.120 off that. So that's obviously like some tangible stuff and 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.360 that's amazing, but it wouldn't be an R and C 0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:44.600 episode if we didn't get into like the mindset and 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:49.480 like the self development behind this. Because again, if we're 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.679 doing all these things and we're buying the pretty things 0:05:52.839 --> 0:05:56.960 and we're doing the rituals, but they're actually not you 0:05:57.000 --> 0:06:00.000 know what lights us up. We haven't done the inner way, 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:06.120 and we haven't really you know, dived deep into why 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:08.919 we might be feeling a certain way, why we feel 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:12.320 like we can't show up as that girl. Then these 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.800 tangible things are not going to work. We need to 0:06:14.839 --> 0:06:17.320 do the inner work first, and then that is going 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:22.240 to shine outwards. So the biggest thing with romanticizing your 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:25.479 life is you can't just copy what I've said. You 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:28.640 need to find what works for you, what actually feels 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:31.960 good for you. But you also need to get into 0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:37.960 a place where you love yourself wholeheartily enough to believe 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:42.680 you are worthy of these small moments of joy, You're 0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:46.560 worthy of enjoying the process of enjoying every day because 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:49.960 I believe there would be so many people who don't 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:53.919 romanticize their life because they just think they're not worthy 0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:56.719 of the beautiful life. They're not worthy enjoying, you know, 0:06:56.800 --> 0:07:01.600 those small moments or buying the cute station, and those 0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:04.520 things are not going to fix anything. If it's like, 0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:06.760 it's just going to be basically a band aide, if 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:09.600 you haven't done the inner work, and if you haven't 0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:13.560 kind of really dived deep into why you don't feel 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:17.400 worthy of romanticizing your life. Be a bit of fun 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:21.920 to ask the girls in the NHH warehouse how they 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:23.960 romanticize their lives. 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:28.960 Hi, guys, I'm Brooke and I'm the community manager here 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:33.320 at Naked Harvest. I romanticize my life by waking up 0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:36.080 early on Sunday mornings and going for a nice, big walk. 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:38.760 And getting a coffee. Hi.

I'm the brand executive at Naked Harvest, and 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:09.840 I romanticized my life by putting on some tunes while 0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:13.640 I cook my dinner with a glass of wine. 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:19.120 What has been the hardest thing about the business for you? 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:24.000 The hardest thing for me in my side was the logistics. 0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:28.040 So the packaging was very difficult. Yeah, like when we 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:33.600 come to COVID, it was very difficult with freight and 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:35.640 getting things in and that was a lot of. 0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:37.640 We experienced a lot of delay shipping. 0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:39.240 Yeah, it was really bad. 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.440 Even at the start coup remember before Naked Harvest, like 0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:46.760 even started to do the packaging with the cylinder was 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:50.079 like a nightmare. Yeah, the samples and remember how back 0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:52.120 and forth when at one point is like we just 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:56.400 can't do it. Me and Mel were like, we want it. 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:57.480 It makes us different. 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:00.800 I remember that being on nightmare. 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:02.280 Yeah it was. 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:03.439 It's still a nightmare, guy. 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:07.000 And the start was getting big trucks sent to my 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:10.480 Palm Beach house which was a tiny as so me 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:13.360 and Ash were at the front getting boxes, bringing them 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.319 in SOI I'd go into the garage and then bringing 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:21.120 them back inside. And but yeah, logistics, which is still 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.240 similar issues, but we are a lot better now. But 0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:27.120 I learned a lot of Yeah, there's still problems all 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:30.400 the time. But yeah, we could plan. 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:33.120 To launch a product, you know, in a few months, 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.400 and that launch would go out the window. It'd be 0:09:35.440 --> 0:09:38.080 pushedback months, like there was just no control. 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:43.600 Oh my god, do you remember when Moonmilk was sold 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:46.079 out for so long and it was like our best 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:48.400 selling products couldn't get it, and we just couldn't get 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:50.559 packaging and it was this whole nightmare. 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:56.400 Yeah, after that, I went and ordered too many. 0:09:56.000 --> 0:09:58.440 Since the moon milk, so didn't order enough. And then 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.280 since the moon milk, Cooper does this thing where he 0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:03.360 like overs orders and we have so much stock and 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:05.480 we're like, why did you order so much? 0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:11.440 That has changed now, yes, yeah, Alex now and yeah 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:14.120 she's sorting out logistics and she's very good. 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:17.600 My I think my hardest part of the business is 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:21.400 probably like the HR hiring part, and I think that 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:25.960 just comes with like the learning curves of getting good 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:30.000 people who not only are great at their job, but 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:33.440 also like align with Naked Harvest and align with our 0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:36.760 personalities and how we like to, you know, do things. 0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:38.800 I think you can probably tell we all have a 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:47.320 certain sort of personality intense at stress, intense and like 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.840 just very hard working and like you know, ride or 0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:54.760 die like and h is our life. Willing to do anything, 0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.640 you know, willing to go above them beyond, And it's 0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.280 just so, I don't know, it never occurred to me 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:02.840 that that was even something you kind of had to 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:06.800 think about. And coming from a place where I've never 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:10.520 hired people and I've never had to like do anything 0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:13.920 like that. I was always employed myself. That side of 0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:16.160 things was just like a whole of the ball game, 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.200 because it's not even about the business and how it 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:22.720 runs and marketing and that. It's, yeah, it's just this 0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:25.840 whole other thing. We're actually having to deal with people, 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:30.280 and I think managing people for me, especially being you know, 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:33.280 only in my twenties. In my I was going to 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:35.960 say early twenties, but I'm not. I don't know if 0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:38.160 you know this, guys, but I'm in my early twenties. 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:41.960 Your girl, I used to be in my early twenties. 0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:45.800 But that just has been huge because sometimes, you know, 0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:48.240 I just feel not capable. But it's been great learning. 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.920 Yeah, absolutely, But yet we have been very lucky with 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:52.280 the team. 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:56.880 Yeah, yeah, no, incredible, Yeah for it exactly. 0:11:57.440 --> 0:11:59.280 Yeah, I feel like we've built quite a good team. 0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:02.120 We all work very well together and kind of have 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:05.320 the mentality where because we are still such a small team. Guys, 0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:07.400 I don't know if you really know, but you know, 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:11.040 our eCOM marketing team upstairs is a team of five, 0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:15.200 and three of those people do marketing. So the stuff 0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:18.040 that we do there are you know, like everyone has 0:12:18.040 --> 0:12:20.040 their own zone of genius and we all compliment each 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.280 other really well. But we also work really well together, 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:25.400 and I think that's been like the biggest thing for 0:12:25.480 --> 0:12:27.520 us in hiring is finding the right. 0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:28.880 People who gel together. 0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:31.760 Because we are such a small team, we need like 0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:34.760 people to cover all bass you know. 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.560 I was just about to say, for example, a great 0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:41.320 example is like this week where our graphic designer has 0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:44.199 gone on her honeymoon and then we've had a gap 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:47.960 between our other graphic designer coming back from maternity leave, 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:50.640 and so like Kier and Mell are like on canva. 0:12:50.800 --> 0:12:52.040 Yeah, just like teaming it. 0:12:52.280 --> 0:12:54.280 Yeah, and it's like you've just got to be scrappy 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:56.360 and get things done and you've got to have team 0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:59.120 mates who are ready to do that and just like 0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:01.240 do all the thing because it is still like a 0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:02.360 small business in that way. 0:13:02.559 --> 0:13:06.280 Yeah, absolutely, well kind of. I think my hardest thing 0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:09.720 about I don't know, just this business has been I 0:13:09.760 --> 0:13:12.760 think the growing pains, don't you reckon, Like in three 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:17.560 years we've experienced like rapid growth, and I think the 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:21.760 hardest thing is almost keeping up with that, but also 0:13:22.000 --> 0:13:24.200 making sure that we're like I think the biggest thing 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:27.000 for Naked Harvest is we are always like our goal 0:13:27.120 --> 0:13:29.560 is to be trailblazers in the industry. That's you know, 0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:32.400 we found a gap in the market and we filled 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:35.800 that and now our goal is to be ahead. So 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:39.280 in my side of things, constantly making sure that our 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:41.480 brand is at the head of the pack and that 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:44.319 we are innovative and always thinking of new things and 0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:47.720 speaking to our you know, customers, we know what they want. 0:13:47.760 --> 0:13:49.840 We know, you know, even if they don't have it yet, 0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:52.800 we know how to grow and we know how to 0:13:52.840 --> 0:13:56.000 continue to give them what they need. That's been so hard. 0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.240 But I was about to say, you know, with the 0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:02.800 success that has come with being the Trailblazers is also 0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:06.840 you know, the failures too, and then the not knowing. 0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:09.800 I think a great example is what we experience with 0:14:09.840 --> 0:14:11.080 our Mystery Boxers. Now. 0:14:11.880 --> 0:14:13.960 So this is the first time we'd ever done an 0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:17.440 activation like this before, and we were you know, like 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:20.680 obviously I am a very planned, strategic person, so I 0:14:20.720 --> 0:14:24.400 did think of all different you know, outcomes, and I 0:14:24.480 --> 0:14:27.080 tried to think of every single thing that. 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:28.440 Could potentially happen. 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:30.560 Yeah, you know, cover all our bases for something that 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:31.480 we've never done before. 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:33.480 But we still experienced issues. 0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:36.160 You know, and we we just like we always want 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:39.120 to be optimistics, but we just did not expect the 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:41.120 amount of orders we got, and then we had a 0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:42.040 whole bunch of issues. 0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:44.120 Which this is a good problem to have, yeah. 0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:51.800 For us, So no, but I definitely mean in those circumstances, 0:14:52.480 --> 0:14:55.120 like it's an amazing problem to have. But that is 0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:57.800 definitely a hard part part of like when you're doing 0:14:57.880 --> 0:15:01.120 new things and when you're constantly trying to go above 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:03.600 and beyond and do new fun things, you do come 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:06.560 about like a whole other hostal problems that you kind 0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:07.480 of just didn't even think of. 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.720 Yeah, yeah, so I think, yeah, I think we're doing 0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:13.360 a great job. Though yeah we always fail forward. We 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:16.000 never let it, you know, determine our fate. We don't 0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:20.080 let problems just you know, overrun, and then we think 0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:21.520 of always learning. Y. 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:28.640 I love that, you know, love that. I use words like, 0:15:29.040 --> 0:15:33.480 you know, stepping into alignment, following your intuition, stepping into 0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.440 your most authentic self. And I feel like a lot 0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:39.160 of people they just they're like, what the fuck are 0:15:39.160 --> 0:15:44.320 you talking about because they haven't experienced either that or 0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:45.680 much of that. 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:49.920 And or seeing someone who is in alignment. Correct. 0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:53.320 Yeah, and I get that because that was me seven 0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:53.840 years ago. 0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:55.160 Okay, So and. 0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:58.440 Also guys like I guess just to explain. So let's 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:00.920 try and explain the feeling first, and then I'll get 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.280 into how I felt seven years ago compared to now. 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:08.200 But like, alignment to me feels. 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:13.040 So flowy, so easy, but also like not the easy, 0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:15.920 like I haven't worked for it, like the easy, like 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:20.640 I know I am worth it and I know I 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:25.520 am deserving and I know this ease and flow is 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:30.880 because I've you know, overcome challenges to get here and 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.520 I deserve to get to this place. And I just 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:39.600 feel so certain of myself and so certain of like 0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:43.960 if anything was to happen, I would be okay and 0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:47.440 like I would know what to do. I trust myself 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:48.160 so much. 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:53.320 And I don't know, like I'm gonna like start crying. 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:58.440 But it's like I just remember like not feeling like 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:01.120 that seven years ago, and I felt like that for 0:17:01.280 --> 0:17:05.119 like most of my life. Yeah, and it's like I 0:17:05.160 --> 0:17:08.840 don't know, it's like this feeling of just you feel 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:13.520 uncertain and you just feel like so lost. But then 0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:16.040 it also just feels like you don't know what's better, 0:17:16.440 --> 0:17:19.920 and it feels so normal to you, and you kind 0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:22.000 of you know there's something better out there, and you 0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.679 like want more for yourself, but you just feel like 0:17:24.840 --> 0:17:28.520 so stuck and it feels so hard and everything just 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:29.120 feels like. 0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:31.000 A lot. 0:17:31.600 --> 0:17:33.720 And then like and I used to feel like that 0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:36.600 every single day. And also I just I did not 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:40.280 I didn't feel comfortable to be myself. Yes, I just 0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:44.040 felt I felt so wrong. I felt like me as 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:47.200 a person something was wrong with me. And I just 0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:52.520 like I didn't feel like good enough. I just felt 0:17:52.520 --> 0:17:55.280 like I'm like and It's not that I was like, oh, 0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:57.840 I'm a piece of shit or like anything like that, 0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:01.320 but I just thought, there's nothing specially about me. There's 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:04.719 I'm going to live an ordinary life, and it's just 0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:07.560 I don't know, it just didn't feel like anything. But 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:10.040 then it's like it didn't feel really bad, but it 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:11.960 didn't feel really good, and it just kind of felt 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:13.800 like I was sleepwalking a bit and I was just 0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:15.399 like a bit numb to things. 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:16.760 And it's just I. 0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:20.360 Guess the reason why I'm getting emotional is because that 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:23.240 felt so normal and if I, you know, didn't find 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:25.919 these things and had this transformation, I would still be 0:18:25.960 --> 0:18:28.600 feeling like that. And I just feel like so many 0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:31.639 people are feeling like that, and it's like, you know, 0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:34.439 if we're getting to the craccident, Like that is why 0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:37.879 I created the project, because I'm like, it's not that 0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:40.679 it's so simple. There is you know, a lot to that, 0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:45.040 but it's like it can just feel so much better. 0:18:45.280 --> 0:18:48.400 And when when you like step into alignment and you 0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:51.040 like find these tools, like you said, it's like these 0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:54.840 subtle changes and you can't even like pinpoint what has 0:18:54.960 --> 0:18:58.359 changed because it's like maybe the external actually hasn't changed 0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:01.240 that much, but you just you feel different. And I 0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:04.959 think it's also like just this like sense of peace 0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:10.359 of myself and my life, whereas before I just I 0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:13.360 don't know, I didn't feel that. Yeah, And I think 0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:17.520 it's also it's so weird to even say, but knowing 0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:21.800 that you're in the right place and not worrying about 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:26.880 where you're going next yet, Yes, like having no stress 0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:29.000 or anxiety about the future because you just you know 0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:30.719 it's going to be okay whatever happens. 0:19:30.880 --> 0:19:32.200 Yeah, which is huge. 0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:36.200 Yeah, one hundred percent. So well I went off on 0:19:36.240 --> 0:19:40.400 attach to then, and I think I the reason why 0:19:40.400 --> 0:19:43.359 I do get emotional is because, you know, the whole 0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:48.840 our new slogan TEA is like ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Yes, 0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:51.600 And it's kind of like I'm not special, Like there's 0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:55.120 nothing special about me. If you look at me seven 0:19:55.200 --> 0:19:58.400 years ago, to me to me now, it's like, holy shit, 0:19:58.480 --> 0:20:01.760 she's a whole different person. Yeah, but I don't know, 0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:02.560 do you know what I mean? 0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:03.720 Yeah? I get what you mean. 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:06.080 And I think, like, I guess the reason why I 0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:10.160 get emotional is like anyone listening to this who felt 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:12.800 who feels that like how I felt who feels like 0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:16.520 that now, it's like life can be so much better, 0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:19.640 and I just I get upset thinking of people who 0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:23.199 will just then continue to live their life like that. Yeah, 0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:25.359 and it's not that it's bad, no, because it's like 0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:28.280 my life was fine. Yeah, it was so fine, but 0:20:28.320 --> 0:20:32.200 then just how I feel now, it's just like next level. 0:20:32.320 --> 0:20:35.600 Holy shit, it can just feel like better than you 0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:39.680 could have imagined. That's the only way I can describe it. Yeah, 0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:42.320 all right, guys. So, like if I think about myself 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:45.560 seven years ago, like I was kind of saying, like 0:20:45.640 --> 0:20:49.000 I just like life was fine. I was with Tim, 0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:51.439 I was doing my law degree, I had you know, 0:20:51.800 --> 0:20:55.199 a pretty good group of friends, pretty good support. But 0:20:56.280 --> 0:21:01.480 I just I felt like, I how do I articulate this? 0:21:01.840 --> 0:21:06.560 A thing I've noticed only recently is that I feel 0:21:06.560 --> 0:21:10.159 like when you're not in alignment, you're in a rush. 0:21:10.600 --> 0:21:13.399 And I know that's a very weird way to explain it, 0:21:13.560 --> 0:21:16.919 but it's like, if you're not in alignment and you're 0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:20.400 just constantly trying to work to your next goal all 0:21:20.440 --> 0:21:23.119 the time, and you're on a timeline and you're like, 0:21:23.160 --> 0:21:25.440 I need well this by this state, this, by this date, 0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:27.560 this by this date and you're just going and going 0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:30.840 and going. Yes, that's great, and you probably feel pretty 0:21:30.840 --> 0:21:33.719 good because you're achieving goals and hitting goals. But if 0:21:33.760 --> 0:21:36.880 you're constantly in a rush to get to the next goal, 0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:38.800 it means you're not happy where you are. 0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:39.679 Yeah. 0:21:39.680 --> 0:21:41.560 And if you're happy where you are and you're in 0:21:41.600 --> 0:21:44.840 alignment and you know that, yes, I'm supposed to be 0:21:44.960 --> 0:21:47.199 here right now. I don't know how long I'm supposed 0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:49.679 to be in this position. There's something that I have 0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:52.760 to learn, and then the next thing will come when 0:21:52.760 --> 0:21:55.399 it's supposed to come. There's no reason for me to 0:21:55.480 --> 0:21:58.359 rush to get there. Yeah, And you're just you're not worried. 0:21:58.400 --> 0:21:59.440 You're not worried at all. 0:21:59.480 --> 0:21:59.680 You're not. 0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:02.359 You'll come when it's time, if it's ten years, if 0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:04.240 it's one year, if it's six months. 0:22:04.440 --> 0:22:07.879 But there's no rush to leave where you're at. 0:22:07.960 --> 0:22:10.520
