And then 29 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: Monday coming up, it is going to be a tour 30 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: guide to o Hi because that's where Boss Go and 31 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: I went for our birthday get away and it's really 32 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: only an hour and a half out of La so 33 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: it's a really great day trip location and or you 34 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: know nights staycation Vibe, which is what we did two 35 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: nights away. So it was a lot of fun. What 36 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: else did I want to tell you? 37 00:01:58,920 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: Next? 38 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: So this week I feel kind of burnt out because 39 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: this week, as you know, I work at the Yog 40 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: studio and I get two days off. I get my 41 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 1: Thursdays and my Sundays off, and basically this week on 42 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: my day off, I ended up shooting. I did a 43 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: whole content shoot for Kilo, which is an Aussie brand. 44 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: They are a medi spa, but they also have a 45 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 1: nutritionals range and I'm one of their American ambassadors and 46 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: so we had a whole content day. I think we 47 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 1: shot six recipes and if you haven't shot I mean 48 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: not that I don't expect anyone to know this, but 49 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: if you're shooting recipes, you don't shoot them once. You 50 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: shoot them at least twice because you want to get cutaways, 51 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: you want to get b roll, you want to be 52 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: able to create like stills and close ups of each ingredient. 53 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: So it's quite a long process. How we got through 54 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,399 Speaker 1: six recipes, I do not know. And then we did 55 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: yogurt sequences. There was a yin and a vinyasa, and 56 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: then we did a nighttime ritual. 57 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness. 58 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: Honestly, it was so much fun though, and it was 59 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: all shot in this beautiful part of La or just 60 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: on the outskirts of La called I hope, I says, 61 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: right Agora Hills. And this specific place was like a 62 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: ranch Spanish style, beautiful house and it had horses on 63 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: the property. 64 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: We got to hang out with the horses. 65 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,239 Speaker 1: After. My favorite was Forest. There were three horses, Forest, 66 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: who was over thirty, and then there was Lexington beautiful 67 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: black like black beauty vibes horse Forrest is a chestnut, 68 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: and then there was Sparky and Sparky is like white 69 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: with little black dots all over him, a little bit smaller, 70 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: and Sparky was blind, so he uses his head and 71 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: he smells and very very very cute and nearly said pup, 72 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: really cute horse. So we got tang up with horses 73 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: at the end of the street. It was a big, big, 74 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: big day, lots of fun, but a huge day. And 75 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: so I'm kind of like, I got one more day 76 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: work tomorrow. I'm running a nutrition workshop as part of 77 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: that day, and Sunday is my day off and I'm 78 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: doing a pod and which is going to be I'm 79 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: so excited for.

Apparently 83 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: it's eclipsed energy at the moment, so that can feel 84 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: a little bit chaotic from what I can understand. And 85 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: it just has felt that like I've had three or 86 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: four really exciting work meetings, like agent meetings, manager meetings, 87 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: all that, and they all got canceled. It's really weird 88 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: all in this one week. So I'm hoping everything picks 89 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: up again next week. But this week has felt a 90 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: little like, not disjointed, just a little like he'll put 91 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: into a sound like ah, you know that feeling like 92 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: like what's going on?
