Welcome to the jungle.

Oh, good morning. Are we in your car or are we at the bar?

We're.

Don't you wonder where we are right now? With people. That all rhymed.

I wish that we were in an rv going to see people.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Don't even plant that seed. I literally just saw a big RV with our faces on the side. But, like, so cute. You know, they do, like, news anchor ones, but, like funny ones, like back to back.

With some really great font.

That's glitter. Oh, it's gonna be the best font ever.

Super cheesy.

How do you feel about that song welcome to the Jungle? Does that give you a really good workout or are you more like.

I love it.

This one out Guns N Roses. Oh, yeah.

I think they're great.

I love them. And that's really funny. Somehow in, like, third grade, you know, where the desks pop up on hinges. Yeah. Yeah. I had found, like. I don't even know where I got it from. I found, like, you know those things that you got from the fair? They were like glass and they had the band inside and, like a little frame around them.

Yes.

I had found a Motley Crue one, and I knew that these cute boys that I like liked Motley Crue, so I taped it to the top of my desk as if I was the largest Motley Crue fan in third grade, obviously. And I don't think it did anything for that relationship.

They didn't come over.

But I'll never forget in third grade being like, yeah, Motley cruelly grew third.

Wow. You're a really cool third grader.

I. You know, I really was.

I. That's amazing.

Yeah. I don't know, it's interesting. I was really aggressive as well, because I had two Crushes in third grade. And here's the best part. So I got some inside information because my mom cleaned the house of one of the boys.

So she knew.

So she would talk to the his mom. And she found out that I chased him down on the playground, tackled him and forced him to kiss me.

And what did? What did. I'm sure he liked it.

That's when I was still kind of cute. So I think he did.

I think he loved it. That's why doesn't love being chased on the playground to be kissed.

I don't know. He acted like he didn't like it, but.

But.

But what I do remember is my mom cleaned his house for a long time and it was like years later.

Yeah.

And he said he had a crush on me when he was younger. Yeah.

What could have been?

You know? What could have been. I think I'd be. I'd still be in Upper Michigan. Yep.

You might still be. You'll be going to Motley Crue concerts.

That's for sure. That's a for sure.

Are they still around? I don't even know.

I bet we could go to the Troubadour.

Yeah.

Which is a famous rock cafe.

I saw Rocketman over the weekend.

What did you think?

I loved it.

Did you download the songs immediately?

On the way home, Adam and I were like Rocketman on. Or Elton John on Spotify. The whole like for days.

See what we did. We went and took a PCH ride which is like the highway along the ocean here, if you guys don't know. And we turned it on and we just like pulled up the words on my phone. We just sang and sang. It was.

His story is amazing.

Oh my God. When he hugs the little boy.

I know.

It's just.

Everyone should see it. I had no idea his childhood was the way it was and how much he went through.

I didn't know that either. But I will say I really. It just. It's a constant reminder that like our. All of our struggles are creating something amazing. But then it's also that struggle with like the extremes.

Yeah.

Because he ran into some extreme problems.

Really extreme problems.

Drugs and alcohol. Yeah. And other things.

That he turned his life around.

Me too. I was proud of him. I can't believe he just went sober.

Me neither. That was amazing. Everyone should see that movie.

It is so good. I will say I don't think it's as good as Bohemian Rhapsody, but it is just a different type of good.

I agree. That movie just blew me away. Bohemian Rhapsody. I.

One of the Best. Oh, my God. That's right. We saw it together and we.

I don't think either one of us. We were like, what is this? I don't know.

I had no clue. Me neither. I mean, I knew what the song was, but I did not know that I was stepping into, like, one of my favorite movies of all time.

Seriously.

We came out of there, and so we were in Florida. We just got off the Oprah cruise, and we were. We were in a. We were in another world because Seven days on a cruise ship for people who don't like cruising. And we. Because we were. Also had a major generational gap there. Yeah. So.

And we were hungry.

We were hungry for life.

Yep.

And that just, like, fueled us. I really think that that pulled us into another level so that we could go home in a better place.

I think it did. I'm thankful for that movie. So thank you, Queen.

Thank you, Queen. I mean, he is the gift that keeps on giving.

Agreed.

I wanted to name my child after him. That's how high I was.

Listen, you still can.

I was like, is it Freddie or is it Mercury, or do I just go for it?

Just go for it.

Yeah. Whatever it is, it's going to rock you. You had to. It was terrible. I'll edit that out. All right. Do you have a quote?

Yes. And I. Wow. I screamed that. It's by. Yes. Your favorite or one of your. Roomie. You love roomie, right?

Yeah. Roomy's tattooed on my arm.

Roomy.

Yeah.

They say he. He's a he. Right? Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.

Wow. What made you pick that quote? That is so good.

I just really liked it because I feel like I have been acting small.

I agree. You know, because you are larger than life. I'm just calling you out right now because I have been thinking about you a lot. Because I've been thinking about me. I kind of feel like we're in a bit of the same spot right now.

I do, too.

Where I'm like, hmm, funky town. Yeah. Funky, funky funk town.

What a good. I'm good. But just.

Yeah. I'm marinating in it.

Yeah.

Like, you have to be here in order to go to your next level. But it also.

I'm overcooked.

Yeah, totally. My poker's out. Yeah.

I've been marinating for a long time. It's time to get out of here.

Yeah, definitely. I don't even know what to say to that. But. So anyway, I really. That quote is beautiful because I. I'm feeling another level coming on.

Me, too.

And I have a weird goal that includes you, but I can't tell you yet. I'll tell you after this podcast and you guys will be filled in later. And that's so annoying as a listener to hear right now, so I'm going to skip over that. So here's my quote. Here's my quote. It's from Marie Forleo's new book. Not an ad, but I did get an early copy because, you know, because I can share it with you guys. All right, so it says, and this is just her quote. Starting small and sucky beats staying stucky. I think that's for us, too.

That's so good. I really needed to hear that.

So maybe you get that on your arm.

Starting small and sucky is better than beats staying stucky. A to the men.

Do you want to get the same tattoo as me, but with that on.

There on our necks?

Oh, my God. So for our RV picture, we can just hold, like, we can hold our arms or our necks out, like, and be like, stings, stink, stucky, small and sucky. It's staying stucky. All right, so.

No, that's great.

Yeah, that's a really, really good one because it is the truth. And here's the thing. Like, I keep fast forwarding to the end of my life.

Wow.

And being like, do I. Am I going to regret not starting this thing? Because it's a beast and it's beautiful like most beasts.

Beauty.

Yeah. And it's. It's. It's a resounding, like, yes, I will regret this for sure. So I've seen another movie, which was cute. This is a random thought, but I. Since I've been going to every movie because I'll tell you, like, it's the best thing to look forward to at the end of the day. I used to hate movies. Do you know, I never watched. I never went to movies with Chris until, like, two and a half years ago. And now I'm addicted.

Are you serious?

I couldn't sit still.

Huge movie people.

No, I could not sit still. Like, I hated it. I just had. I had too much to get out into the world that it made me feel like I was doing nothing and I just couldn't sit still. I had to be doing something while I was watching a movie, whether it was cleaning or on my phone or whatever. So now I love them. So we also saw Men in Black, which was cute.

I need to see that. That's a new one, right? With a girl playing one of the guys.

Yeah, it was so. Yes, it was so good. Um, and Thor plays Liam Neeson. No, Liam Neeson plays a main character. And then Chris Hemsworth.

He is a good looking man.

I told you that. He went to our gym and he was doing a plank next to me and I was like, are you. Are you serious right now? Thor is planking next to me.

Did you. Who planked longer? Because I feel like you would easily plank longer.

He planked longer, but because you had to go do. I was like, show me your hammer. He didn't like that.

Only in LA can you say you plank next to Thor.

I know, it's true. Hillary Swank works out there too all the time. And I'm like, what's up, million dollar baby?

Yeah. What?

I don't say that thing. She did say hi to me once and I was like, hi.

Hi, Hill.

Hi, Hill. How's your boxing going?

Seriously?

She's buff.

She. She seems really cool too.

She's freaking amazing. Like, she is so nice. She talks to everyone.

Of course she does.

I know. It's out of control.

Do we have a review?

Yeah. It's really cute.

I love that you pick pick the reviews.

I do too. I love reading them. This one's short and sweet, but I really liked it. It's from Maya Jojo and they said, I seriously love the Q A episodes. You both are uplifting and motivating. Love listening at work to keep myself positive and feeling blessed. Maya Jojo.

Maybe that's our new tattoo. Like a review with stars under it and be like, this is a reminder that we're awesome.

Let's just do all the reviews I've read.

I just want a thick collar neck tattoo of reviews. Be like, I got this idea from itunes. Here's my review. Oh, this is what people think of me. Yeah.

My Jojo.

My Jojo.

Thank you.

Maya Jojo. We're gonna send you something awesome.

She has email customer service.

Yeah. Email customer serviceauriharter.com Grazie. Grazie. Do you have a question?

Oh, yeah, actually I have a real question.

Okay. I'm excited for this. Let's see if I have a real answer. I might give you a fake one. Okay.

This will be good. So I was listening to a goop podcast yesterday. You know, Gwyneth Paltrow. Goop.

Okay. I've never listened to her. Does she talk on it?

She does on some.

Okay.

But this one was some other woman who works for her, and she. They were talking about body work and releasing energy, and it was really interesting.

Okay.

What is your pelvic floor? I don't know what that means.

The bottom of your vagina.

Okay. Literally just, like, down in there.

Yeah, I believe so. So it's. I think it's where. Now, this is for everyone who knows about pelvic floors. Who researches them.

Yeah.

Who cleans them? I don't know. Sounds likely.

Down.

It's a floor. I don't know.

Do you mind? Solid.

I think it's where. And if you have children in the car, maybe you don't want that, but I think it's, like, where you do. Like the Kegel muscle.

Gotcha.

Yeah.

Well, I just learned so much about your pelvic floor.

And what were they teaching about it?

Well, they were talking about just where you hold. How we're all energy.

Yeah.

We're all movement. And how you can hold things in different places. And talking about, like, being. When you feel stuck or if you're in a real redundant pattern.

Yeah.

You need to do something different.

Yeah.

Because your energy is doing the same crap over and.

Oh, my God.

They did not say it like this. They were much more eloquent.

And I think this is very clear.

I'm all crap.

I think that's really. I think that's a translation for all of us who understand.

Yeah.

The basics.

Right. I still don't know. I guess you hold a lot of stuff in your pelvic floor or something.

Or that's where it's been feeling really heavy lately.

Because it's kind of, like, weighing you down. I don't know.

Yeah. How do I release the floodgates?

Right.

I don't know. Let's figure that out. I feel stuck.

Yeah.

I don't know. I gotta figure out how to loosen that up. I know.

I just. Kicking things off with the pelvic floor.

I gotta get some Lysol down there. All right. So, I mean, honestly, I don't know how you. You. I. I'm gu. Guessing you do bodywork or you move it around or you find a Reiki master or something. Like that.

I think I want to try one of those because I think it'd be interesting.

In order to be a Reiki master, do you get one of those boxes with sand in that little mini rake?

You do, and you invite your people over, and then you're like, here, rake this for a couple minutes, and then I'll tell you what your life is.

I've done this for 57 hours. I am an enlightened Reiki master. I'm just kidding. Like, really? I love people who do energy work. I'm going to them, waiting in line for him. Amen. Release all of my energy that is stuck below.

Do you? I'm serious.

I'm really giving massive props to Reiki masters, but now I can't get that picture out of my head of the MIDI rake for hours a night. Oh, Lord. Okay, do you want a real question? I would love. I think your question was very valid. Thank you. We have to validate ourselves. No one else is going to.

Yeah, thanks, Lori.

That was important.

Oh, okay. This one comes from Tay. Underscore Pelletier.

Why can't. My mom was just like, lori.

Hey, tay sounds French.

Does.

I'm just making that up. What is your favorite thing to do when you need a quick reset for your brain?

You know, I go to a Reiki master, but really myself, I go for a walk. Yeah. Hands down. And if I can't go for a walk in that moment, I will either listen to music or I will go get up and make some tea or some water, or I'll jump. Like, literally put on a song and jump around. Because for me, just like, with. Honestly, people who do Reiki, they move energy. They look for blocks. They do things like that you're stuck energy. Like, you were saying, like, that was so much wisdom. With, like, you have to do different things. You have to move your energy around. In my friend Peter Kelly's book, have you read that book yet? Earth is Higher. It is so incredibly good. She's huge on this. Like, if you. You're not going to love your life if you don't do something different often, like, it is just. If you're wondering why you feel stuck, it's because your life is stuck on repeat. Like, take a different route. Like, go to a different gym. We shouldn't do the same things every single day for our whole life. And it doesn't take a whole life change up. It just takes an activity. Switching something up. And you'll watch, it'll be uncomfortable. You won't want to do it. And then when you start doing it, you start to feel that heaviness lift, because the heaviness is just stuck energy. So I try to just do something different. Just do something different. If your brain is feeling groggy, foggy, stuck, joggy.

Yeah.

I don't know.

Sticky, tacky.

What do you do?

I like walking. George helps me with that.

Yeah.

And even just going to a different room or listening to a song.

Yeah.

Music.

Rocket Man.

Rocket Man. Put on Elton John.

What's your favorite Elton John song right now?

Oh, it's so hard.

Mine is while you think, let's see. It is.

I don't. I think I like some of the slower ones.

That's why they call it the Blues. That one. Oh, that's a Rolling like thunder. Wait under the covers. And I guess that's why they call it the Blues. Damn, that's a good song.

What's the Yellow Brick Road one? I like that one too. It's sad, but good.

On the Yellow Brick Road. We're going to. We're going to figure that out. Oh, yeah, when you're going to come down? When? Oh, I'll just. I have chills. Not from myself, from picturing the movie.

It's so good.

You guys have to go and see it. I'm telling you, we need to be the next. We should go promote Lisco and Ebert.

Lisco and Ebert. Coming at you hot.

Yeah, coming at you real hot. What's the next question? Thank you for that first question, by the way.

You're welcome. Okay, this is an interesting question that I can totally relate to.

Okay.

At Alicia, Lindsay asked, how do you deal with quote, unquote, LA people? I just don't understand them. I liked this question.

Where is she from?

I don't know.

Okay, let's just pretend she's not from here. But when I think of LA people, I also think of Midwest people because we all have our thing. Like, to be honest with you, and this is so generalizing, but we did go on book tour together and everyone did answer this question for us. Do you remember the questions I asked when we were in the room? Yeah. So I said, what. What stops? I would ask rooms full of anywhere from 200 to, like 300 women. And I would say, what stops you from connecting? Or what is the. Like, what are people known for in this area and in the Midwest, everybody all at once sang like a choir, said, being passive aggressive.

Yes, yes.

And then in la, I asked the same question and they said, being flaky. Yep. And I know it's a sweeping statement, but when two to 300 people all answer at once, like a choir, and that's what everybody hears, you're kind of like, oh, there's some generalizations that could potentially be true.

Yes.

So if we went with the potentiality. Is that a word?

Sure.

Great.

I love it.

I think it sounds great.

Awesome. Let's create a dictionary. That's the new business, by the way.

Listen, Ebert.

You. You just realize that we all have our thing. So when I think of LA people, I just think of what was it about that made them have to tap into that for survival? And I think in the Midwest, it's because we always have to be together and we're supposed to love our family and the only way to survive being together all the time is to be nice to their face and talk about them behind their backs.

True.

And in la, we're so protective of our time because we always. I don't know. This is. I'm making this up as I go. I like it. So let's see where this storyline goes.

Yeah.

This is what you do as a writer as well. Just make it up.

Right. Let it out.

Just tap into the. Whatever source you're tapped into. And right now I think I might be. I don't know, I'm tapped into something like maybe a bug light. So a bug light at Home Depot is what I'm feeling right now. That's a mosquito being zapped, in case you didn't know. And I think in la, it's like we flake because we're exhausted. We have too much, like, pulling at us all of the time. So we say yes because it's so shiny. Like, everything in LA is. You're like, yes, I want to go to that book launch. Yes. But it's Monday through Sunday. And so then we play because we're exhausted and we can't deal with two hours of sitting in traffic. And that's real.

That is real.

Two hours is legitimately real. 5 miles equals 2 hours if you leave after 4 o'.

Clock. So true.

I'm like, I'm not eating. Like, if you. If you translate that to the Midwest, that would be like, me driving to, like, another county.

Exactly.

Ten other counties.

Yeah.

Nobody does that. Nobody's like, you know what? I'm in Wisconsin right now, but I'm going to go to Minnesota for dinner.

No one does that.

Nobody. But we do that here. And then we're, like, so tired. So you start flaking because you had 40 experiences like that and you can't drive to another state for dinner, be home. You do. So you're like start flaking. But here's the thing, you have to start setting boundaries and saying no. And that's a hard thing for people. Yeah, in the Midwest we just say yes because it's five minutes away and then we have to talk when we go home because we're also equally exhausted.

All right, so let's get back to the question, because none of that even matters for what this. This woman. So how do you deal with LA people? It's how you deal with people in general. I think you have massive compassion for whatever their story is, for why they are how they are.

Yep.

And also, I so respect LA people because they have had to survive out here with crazy high prices, massive comparison, everyone telling you that you should look and be a certain way.

So true.

And I think that you just create your bubble wherever you are. Because I'll tell you, coming from the Midwest, like, I. It was hard for me at first with LA people, but now I'm obsessed with them because I love that they are. They're dream chasers and so open.

Yes.

And they have to talk about themselves in order to network because most of them are networking. And it's how a business on your own or, you know, being whatever, whatever it is, like that's the only way for it to survive is to share your passion and talk about yourself and say what you're doing. So I always think when someone's, like, bragging or saying what they do, it's so they can connect a network work. I don't know. I love LA people.

I do too. And I felt the same way when I first moved here as this person did.

I was like, me too.

I even. Who are these people?

Yeah. I was like, I cannot talk about Green Juice in my acting class.

Right. And now I'm like, I love Green Juice.

I know. And I was like, tell me about your acting class.

Yeah.

Like, can I join?

And I also heard something on this GOOP podcast too. They were talking about the feeling of envy and how a lot of times when you see people and you're like, I don't understand them, but you're kind of envious of them. You should think about that. So maybe explore it. Yeah. Maybe there's something you actually really like about LA people that you want in yourself.

That's exactly how I felt. And I didn't realize that I was being triggered because I was like, how are they able to just share so openly?

Yes.

And also not. They don't, they don't care. They do not care. And here, here's another thing. Like, you almost can't. Like, yes, you can, but you almost can't care about everything because it's as human beings, everything that's around us. In la, you have to block certain things out and you have to just let things roll off your back and almost act as if certain things are not existing for you to actually function. That's same with New York. You wonder why people can't smile. I did a test in New York for myself and I was like, that is it.

Yeah.

I'm going to turn these a holes days around. Like, I was like, I'm going to smile at everyone in this coffee line. I'm going to make everyone like, I'm going to be this bright light. And I was wearing a jacket that had color in it and it wasn't black and my hair was blonde. And I was like, I'm going to be a light on the street. Well, I did. It was out of control. I was like, I'm just going to come in like a tidal wave of love.

Yeah.

By block number two, I was like, I can't smile anymore. Like, this is too many people. I. I just want to get a black jacket and blend and rest. I was exhausted.

Just get to from too many people.

It was too exhausting. It was holding too many doors. It was saying hi way too many times and making like really massive connection with people because I was just turned down so many times by people that I was overwhelmed.

But you did it.

You did it. And I realized, like, you kind of have to protect your energy and you save it for the line at Starbucks, you know?

Right.

And then you save it for the mom moments that you really want to let that light shine.

Yeah. You can't let it shine all the time. Has to have rest.

Yeah. Or you're exhausted. Yeah.

You gotta plug it in.

So that's really where like you. Yeah. It's like, why am I picturing myself as a Glade plugin right now? What's your name?

Glade Plugin. Last name?

I need to plug it in right now. I think we have time for one more question. Okay. Because clearly we're. We're nailing these.

Yeah. I think so far we've been really good.

Yeah. I think we've really added value to the world this morning.

Oh, no. What am I doing? Okay. This is from Tracy DiStefano.

Tracy DiStefanofano.

How do you have an abundance mindset and be responsible with your money? That's a good question.

Oh, that's so good. How do you have an abundant mindset and be responsible with your money? I think that there is a difference of you're not being irresponsible and like, oh, I'm abundant. I'm gonna buy that Porsche over there because I'm abundant and your checkbook is like, got a hundred dollar.

Yeah.

In there.

You.

I'm not abundant. It's a feeling that when you are spending the money that you have on things that are logical, that you are not in a lack mentality. And this was huge for me because, like, my heart used to race at the checkout counter when I would just buy everyday normal things, like, can I afford the expensive Greek yogurt? And I stopped using words like expensive. And I was like, can I? Yeah, Like, I can handle this Greek yogurt. Like, I don't know if I said I can handle it, but it will digest. I will not have diarrhea today, but I probably did. I don't know. Yeah, dairy's a tough one for me.

Dairy is tough.

Yeah. It just. You know what?

It gets in there.

And it gets in there. Does. Does its thing. It like, goes in with boxing gloves.

Go on. That's our little bell for we hit digestive talk for the day.

We did it.

We did it.

Proud of us.

Yeah.

Thought we were gonna skip over that.

Nope.

Yeah. It's literally a feeling. So practice the feeling of when you're checking out with your normal life of being like, you don't even think about money. You just think, there is always enough and I'm always able to meet my needs. That was huge for me. I'm like, I love that there's always enough. I'm always able to meet my needs. And then once in a while, I also would splurge on things. Like when I was out, instead of if I was having a cocktail with my husband, I would order the champagne. And we all know champagne's, like, way more expensive than maybe a normal drink or whatever that looks like. Exactly. And I was like, oh, this is. Oh, we'll go back to Amber's. Like, this is luxury.

Yeah.

Oh, like, I deserve this.

Yes.

Let's bring her back in. Like luxury. No, she's probably listening.

She's listening.

She's probably listening and, like, putting on little white lace gloves, like, as she drives, being like, I'm luxurious. And she's probably getting a plane ticket upgraded right now.

But that's how she does it, because she has that mentality that she is living a life of luxury.

Oh, my God. So go get a pair of white lace gloves, put them on slowly, and sip a glass of champagne. And, like, just tickle your arms while you do it. Tickle your own arms and say luxury. Be like, I'm luxurious. Pet your hair. Put on a. Put on a hat with a feather on it. You know what? Peacock feather.

You probably could find something in your house that you haven't had in a long time. Just like, get something out and be.

Like, this is luxury. Oh. Put on a costume necklace, like the ones that are just like six inches around on your neck so you look like Queen Elizabeth. And put on white lace gloves and be like, I'm serious, though. This is going to be an act. And this is going to be one of our pictures on the side of that bus. Yeah.

Luxury.

Luxury. And we'll just watch people throw money at our heads.

Yeah. And then we'll go adopt a bunch of dogs.

Yeah. Start a farm.

Yeah. Yeah. Who.

Who was it on the farm? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Old McDonald. McDonald's. Wow, that was bad.

Oh, I went to a cool farm recently.

Did you really? Where was it?

Yeah, it's outside of la. It's called Apricot Lean Farms. You should really go.

That is so cute.

It's really cool.

What was there?

They have cows and this really cool pig named Emma and goats, sheep. It's sustainable farm and they're really cool and they sell their stuff and like Irwan and things like that.

No.

Yeah, it's really cool. There's a movie about them.

Oh, my God. The big little Farm. Okay, guys, you can go to that. And if you don't know what Irwan is, it is a bougie.

It is the nice grocery store.

You have to wear your costume jewelry and your lace gloves there.

You cannot touch the fruit without lace gloves.

No, exactly. You guys, this is. Is for real. People go on dates there.

It is.

Because there's tables outside with fireplaces. And I'm like, this is a grocery store. I almost took my brother there. I said, no, this is a luxury grocery store.

It's crazy.

And he said, what the hell is that? And I was like, you don't have lace gloves. We can't go.

You don't have your jacket on. Jacket and tie.

Just kidding. You can go to normal clothes, but truly, people go on dates there.

You can't spend less than $20 once you walk in.

Yeah. On a kombucha. Yeah. On that note, we gotta go.

Oh, yeah, sorry. Bye.

Bye. It's more just so Evans gets to work on time. But thank God we have that deadline or we would just infiltrate people's eardrums.

Hours.

It would be hours of this.

Your ratings.

I would.

I'm sorry.

Actually, they'd be through the roof.

What are your last words?

My last words? Not for life. For sure. I don't want this like on my gravestone.

No, for this could be awful for this day.

You know, I just want to say do something that changes up your energy and find someone that you can have a conversation like this with.

That is so nice. I love that.

It makes me happy.

Makes me happy.

You got parting words?

I would say do that and listen to Elm John when you're doing it.

That's it. Amen. Have the best day. Bye. Thank you guys so much much for spending this time with me on the earn your happy podcast. I am so glad that you stopped by.
