So it's Susan with the Academies, and I'm out for a walk in my brand new vest. So this is my weighted vest, and it adds about 15-20 pounds to my walk. And what I noticed is that it was hard to get on, felt really heavy, and then once I got it on and I started walking— I'm gonna step in the shade here— got it on and started walking, I didn't notice it, and it made me wonder and think about the weights that we carry around, not realizing it, not knowing it. And so just wishing you some awareness about the things that you're carrying, whether intentionally or not intentionally, today. Have a great day.
