00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: really really exciting some Australia, some America, so stay tuned.

22
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: This week is just a week in the life Los

23
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: Angeles and like the last little bit of Pioneertown and

24
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: Joshua Tree and all of that. Because right after I

25
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 1: recorded that episode I recorded for you from Yucker Valley,

26
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: I went for my morning walk and I saw this

27
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: massive snake and it's was the first third of it

28
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: was black and the rest of it was like this

29
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: dusty pink color. I think they're called coach whip snakes.

30
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: Their name means they can whip real quick. And even

31
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: as soon as I saw it, it saw me and

32
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: it was like and turned to face me, and I

33
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: was like, oh golly, you're You're going to be a

34
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 1: quick one, aren't you. Anyway, I tried to get a

35
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: little VID and I was so nervous, and then I

36
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 1: went home so quickly because it was just chilling. He

37
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: or she was just chilling on the side of the road,

38
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: like not in the bushes, not away, like very very

39
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: close to the road, and I was walking on the

40
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: road anyway, so I thought I mentioned that. And I

41
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: also saw loads of ravens a lot of people say

42
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: they're bad luck, but I also think a lot of

43
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: cultures say they're really good luck to like for transformation

44
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: as well as being like highly adaptive and resilient and strong. Anyway,

45
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: so I was walking there were these five just sitting

46
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: on a like a wire, just looking down at me,

47
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: very full on but kind of like quite fun as well,

48
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: felt like, you know, eerie, spooky. I would have mentioned.

49
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 1: In the last day we saw coyotes and these little

50
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: field chipmunk things. They're not mice, but they're the size

51
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: of mice, and they're kind of white in color, very

52
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: light creamy. And then being back in La I gotta say,

53
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: because we ate loads of America, we went out for

54
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: a lot of American food, and that last day we

55
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: went back into Pineertown, took our mates, went to Pappy

56
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: and Harriet's. Got the grill again. Matt subsess loves the ribs.

57
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: It was a lot of fun, but it was really

58
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: heavy food, which I'm not so used to. But here's

59
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: the thing about me. Here's the thing about me, Gang,

60
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: I've f had it really hard to reel back in

61
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: after I've been having treaties and not my normal diet.

62
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: So it's taken me a little while to kind of

63
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: like come back to feeling like in my rhythm again.

64
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: So I've had to find like, you know, I don't

65
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: know about you, but when I like cut something out,

66
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: I have to find a healthy alternative for a while.

67
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: And so like I found my favorite gluten free blondie

68
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: that I get from Lassens, the natural health storing in

69
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: La and I I got that because that was like

70
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: I was craving sweet. And then I found this chocolate

71
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 1: that's sweetened with fiber. So the brand is called Gatsby.

72
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: The whole bar has seventy calories five grams of sugar,

73
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: and the flavors cookies and cream of course, but they

74
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 1: are using I believe alulos a sweeter. There's mcten here

75
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: are sweeted with stevia. But that was yummy. Oh yeah,

76
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: allulos is the first ingredient, So that was really really yummy.

77
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 1: Cool Gatsby inspired branding like the wise little Martini glass.

78
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can get this in Australia,

79
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: but the brand is Gatsby. They have other flavors like

80
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: salted caramel, almond, but I've tried them in the past

81
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: and cookies and cream is the winner. I also tried

82
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: a new health bar. It's called a hemp bar. Twelve

83
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: grams of protein cookie dough flavor was really really nice

84
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: and it did hit the spot. Why didn't I bite

85
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: again when I was in lessons yesterday? I feel like

86
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: I might have had high Eighteen grams are cub four

87
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: grams of sugars, that's not too bad, cashiw butter, hemp, protein, monk, fruit, innuline,

88
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: fire fiber, pea, crisp blend, maple syrup, sunfowl like thin

89
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 1: sea salt, cinnemum, pretty clean. Hemp Bar is that brand.

90
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: And then four Sigmatic do the mushroom coffee. But I

91
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: tried their Boost, which is the organic elyixa mix of

92
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: quarter set mushroom and I can never say this word right,

93
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: but Soshandra, it's just because I've got a massive lisp

94
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: and it was really good. So they're just some of

95
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: the things I've tried this week, kind of like trying

96
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: to get back onto my little health health grind. We've

97
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: got people coming over for dinner tonight, which will be

98
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: so nice. That's why I'm jetting to work a bit

99
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 1: earlier so i can sneak out a bit earlier and

100
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,799
Speaker 1: have a Din's at home tonight. I've got my little

101
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: diary here of all the things that we've done this week.

102
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I had a meeting yesterday. You know, the

103
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: nutrition brand Kylo. I'm an ambassador for them in America,

104
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: so specifically the American territory. So I met their marketing

105
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 1: team yesterday. We've got a whole content shoot coming up,

106
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: so it was just like planning that out and figuring

107
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:29,039
Speaker 1: out how much we can physically like film in a

108
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: very like in a one day shoot. So I don't

109
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 1: know if you know this, but recipes take a long

110
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: time to shoot, so where I think we're planning five

111
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: recipes to yoga to five recipes to yoga Q and

112
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: a BTS. But yeah, that's all happening in August, which

113
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: is really really exciting. What else have I called to

114
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: tell you. I've been working my butt off at the

115
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: yoga studio as per USU had a couple of long

116
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: days this week, like eleven hour days, and I was

117
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: like it knocked me, you know when, like I'm a

118
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: pretty apparent. I don't know if you know about human design.

119
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: If you don't, I've got a whole podcast episode on

120
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: it with the Beautiful em and Dumbwoodie. And I'm a

121
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: manifesting generator, which means we rarely burn out, which can

122
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: just like go go go, go, go go go. But

123
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: then I'll get frustrated if I haven't kind of made

124
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: time for myself and for me. I'm passion, like I

125
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: have to live my passion, and so I yues I

126
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: was like, to man, I'm feeling very frustrated today. And

127
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: so I had my therapist and I hadn't had my therapist,

128
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: like I had a session with my therapist. We figured

129
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: out for like a month, just because I think life

130
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: got really busy for both of us. My therapist was

131
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: traveling and obviously, like I've taken on this full time

132
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: position at the Yolk Sudo, but I guess I wanted

133
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: to mention it because it wasn't an easy session. Yeah,

134
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: sometimes you come out of therapy and you're like, oh

135
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 1: my god, that was the best. Oh my god, I'm

136
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: a superhuman. Oh my god, I just faced all this,

137
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: I've grown, I've stretched. That's usually how I feel, or

138
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: I feel like he really helps me like anchor myself

139
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: or realign anything that he's realignment. But like, yesterday was

140
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: just like a really hard session, a lot of tears,

141
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: a lot of like coming to terms with things that

142
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: I didn't really want to come to terms with. And

143
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: I was just like, well it was so hard on

144
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: Matt's like this is so good, and I'm like why

145
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: is this good? And he's like, because you're processing. That's

146
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: what this is forcing you do. He's like, you are

147
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: processing and I was like really, and He's like, yeah,

148
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: you're moving through stuff. And even though it's uncomfortable and

149
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 1: it can feel like disheartening sometimes or a bit griefy,

150
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: sometimes it's better to feel all that, let it go

151
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: and move forward and kind of like heal essentially. And

152
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: so yeah, I had a really great session, but it

153
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: was a toughie yesterday and it kind of made me

154
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: realize that I've got to go a bit easier on myself.

155
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: I'm very strict and hard on myself from a not

156
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: even mentally, just like an expectation that I have on myself,

157
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: Like even though I'm doing loads of work at the Yoaksture,

158
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: I'm still auditioning as well, and so like I'll set

159
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 1: my alarm do an audition, whether it's voiceoverall commercial. That's

160
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 1: kind of like where I'm auditioning mainly at the moment

161
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: and then I'll go and do that eight ten eleven

162
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: hour day or I'll do it at night kind of thing.

163
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: And it just like I was saying to Matt and

164
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 1: I was saying to my therapists, like I just like

165
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: I want to book a commercial or a VEO, Like

166
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 1: it's so much fun when I do the audition, and

167
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 1: then I don't really get to sit in that energy

168
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: again until the next audition comes in, and it's like

169
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: I don't make space for myself to just sit in

170
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 1: Okay with that, you know anyway, So therapy was great.

171
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: Took lots of notes. Oh, he gave me a riper

172
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: quote to I want to share this with you because

173
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, you know when they do penny

174
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 1: drop that mic drop moments. Okay, So he said loads

175
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: of stuff. We talked a lot about like true power

176
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: comes from within and not from outside yourself, and he said,

177
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: your power needs to be self generated. We did a

178
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: lot of work around being an actor being a talk

179
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,719

181
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 1: And this is the mic drop line that he said,

182
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 1: don't let your kindness get in the way of your truth,

183
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: own your hardcore truths, which I really really like. And

184
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 1: we talked about like letting go and seeing it as

185
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: a new opportunity. So that was really really nice. And

186
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: it was interesting because even as we were in this session,

187
