Finding Your Flow: Strategies for Avoiding Burnout with Rebecca Whitman

WEBVTT

00:00:00.270 --> 00:00:04.950
I don't know about you, but I believe and think

00:00:04.950 --> 00:00:08.269
that the internet should be a safer place. Well,

00:00:08.429 --> 00:00:10.849
what if I told you that there's a tool that can

00:00:10.849 --> 00:00:14.050
do just that? A safer internet where you don't

00:00:14.050 --> 00:00:17.510
have to monitor every single thing that your

00:00:17.510 --> 00:00:21.809
kids do or that you stumble across, whether it's

00:00:21.809 --> 00:00:26.109
a fake site or not a fake site. This tool is

00:00:26.109 --> 00:00:30.239
called BlockP. It blocks adult websites, but

00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:34.820
also it blocks those fake websites that you might

00:00:34.820 --> 00:00:37.399
say, hey, this domain is for sale, and hackers

00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:40.899
try to hack all that information or try to scam

00:00:40.899 --> 00:00:43.460
people out of the information. It also protects,

00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:47.259
and it uses AI to protect against other malicious

00:00:47.259 --> 00:00:51.920
stuff and other garbage that people may stumble

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:56.719
across the web. Anyway, I thought to myself the

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:03.619
other day, Why is the internet not a safer place?

00:01:03.979 --> 00:01:08.200
Well, it's because there's money involved. And

00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:12.739
some kind of certain content drives more money.

00:01:12.859 --> 00:01:17.659
Everything has to do with money. And what I like

00:01:17.659 --> 00:01:22.129
about this tool is that it uses... AI built into

00:01:22.129 --> 00:01:25.969
the tool so there's no false positives. And it's

00:01:25.969 --> 00:01:32.030
the only tool that lets you password set a Chrome

00:01:32.030 --> 00:01:38.950
extension or even an Android app settings, et

00:01:38.950 --> 00:01:42.609
cetera, so you can bypass it easily. Give it

00:01:42.609 --> 00:01:46.230
a try. Go to BlockP and download on Google Play

00:01:46.230 --> 00:01:54.189
or iOS or on your web browser, on whatever web

00:01:54.189 --> 00:01:59.569
browser you use, and let them know what you think

00:01:59.569 --> 00:02:01.609
of the tool. They always listen to your feedback,

00:02:01.930 --> 00:02:06.750
etc. Great company, and they have great things

00:02:06.750 --> 00:02:13.270
ahead of them, etc. Take a test one, check it

00:02:13.270 --> 00:02:16.800
out. It's free. And let me know what you think.

00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:20.479
And it's called Block P. Go check them out. This

00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:22.300
episode of Crazy Fit and Scott Healthy Living

00:02:22.300 --> 00:02:26.500
Podcast was created using Podcastle. Podcastle

remove background noise with just a single click.

00:02:54.060 --> 00:02:57.680
And I also use this podcast to automatically

00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:00.259
transcribe my episodes, which not only lets me

00:03:00.259 --> 00:03:03.860
share the final transcript with all of you, my

00:03:03.860 --> 00:03:07.219
listeners, on different channels, but it even

00:03:07.219 --> 00:03:11.080
allows me to use their text editor to clean up

00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:15.159
any of the episode content I don't like. And

00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:18.979
of course, by the way, edit the audio accordingly.

00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:23.180

by any corporate company and is just a one -person

00:03:39.330 --> 00:03:43.030
show? Well, there's this term around the podcasting

00:03:43.030 --> 00:03:47.650
community called indie podcasters. I'm an independent

00:03:47.650 --> 00:03:51.729
podcast creator, so because I'm not backed by

00:03:51.729 --> 00:03:55.330
a huge big corporate company, well, if I run

00:03:55.330 --> 00:03:59.090
out of money and everything else, Crazy Fitness

00:03:59.090 --> 00:04:03.210

00:04:59.180 --> 00:05:07.220
show. She was awarded Life Coach of the Year,

00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:10.500
Empowered Woman of the Year by International

00:05:10.500 --> 00:05:14.540
Associates. Association of Top Professionals

00:05:14.540 --> 00:05:18.620
USA Today rated her in the top five entrepreneurs

00:05:18.620 --> 00:05:22.980
to watch in 2024. Wow. I wish I might put me

00:05:22.980 --> 00:05:26.920
on a list like that. I think I got it on the

00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:32.240
list of either the blacklist of my college or

00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:37.600
I got it listed on the blacklist of the top one

00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:40.040
billion dollar companies in the world. Just to

00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:44.000
annoy them. Either or. I don't know. And the

00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:45.939
reason I say that about my college is that every

00:05:45.939 --> 00:05:49.139
time when I email another professor that I had

00:05:49.139 --> 00:05:53.240
like recent years, etc. No one ever gets back

00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:55.540
to me. I'm like literally going to go tell the

00:05:55.540 --> 00:05:57.399
president's office, like, why do you even pay

00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:01.279
for email when no one uses it? At least in my

00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:04.019
business, I use my email like boom, boom, boom,

00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:07.360
boom, but no one ever goes back to me. I'm not

00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:11.199
sure why. And I'm using my school email. Go figure.

00:06:12.019 --> 00:06:15.399
So I must be on the don't listen to Jimmy Claire

00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.600
list or whatever. Well, anyway, that's my spiel

00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:22.379
for today. But let's welcome Rebecca Whitman

00:06:22.379 --> 00:06:25.870
now. Hey, Rebecca. Hi, Jimmy. It's great to be

00:06:25.870 --> 00:06:30.449
here. Thanks for coming. Before we get started,

00:06:30.610 --> 00:06:32.810
can you tell us a little bit who you are, what

00:06:32.810 --> 00:06:35.389
you do, how you got started, and why you got

00:06:35.389 --> 00:06:41.550
started? Sure. I am the Magnetic Abundance Mentor.

00:06:42.009 --> 00:06:46.529
I empower women and a few good men to go from

00:06:46.529 --> 00:06:49.649
burned out and overwhelmed to balanced, beautiful,

00:06:49.709 --> 00:06:53.889
and abundant. And I thank you for that beautiful

00:06:53.889 --> 00:06:56.930
intro. I never thought I would be ranked top

00:06:56.930 --> 00:07:00.629
five entrepreneurs to watch by USA Today because

00:07:00.629 --> 00:07:04.490
I moved to Los Angeles 23 years ago to be an

00:07:04.490 --> 00:07:08.060
actress. And I had small parts on really big

00:07:08.060 --> 00:07:12.560
shows like Friends, CSI, and 24. And I never

00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.699
did catch that big break as an actress. And I

00:07:15.699 --> 00:07:18.180
found myself working in children's acting schools,

00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:20.660
which I really loved because I don't have kids.

00:07:21.389 --> 00:07:23.910
And while the kids were off at school, I was

00:07:23.910 --> 00:07:26.529
studying with great teachers like Michael Beckwith,

00:07:26.930 --> 00:07:29.930
Esther Hicks, Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay, Marianne

00:07:29.930 --> 00:07:32.870
Williamson. And I started applying the law of

00:07:32.870 --> 00:07:36.189
attraction to my life. I got healthy and fit.

00:07:36.310 --> 00:07:39.269
I love that this is a fitness show. And I got

00:07:39.269 --> 00:07:43.449
to a six -figure income level at the kids' acting

00:07:43.449 --> 00:07:46.629
school. But I had a really bad picker, as they

00:07:46.629 --> 00:07:49.949
say, in my love life. And I kept... picking relationships

00:07:49.949 --> 00:07:53.310
that were really toxic and really painful. And

00:07:53.310 --> 00:07:56.370
I actually decided to marry one of these people

00:07:56.370 --> 00:07:59.930
to try to change him and it did not work. So

00:07:59.930 --> 00:08:02.829
as my marriage was unraveling, my dad was slowly

00:08:02.829 --> 00:08:06.100
dying back in Ohio where I'm from. And in one

00:08:06.100 --> 00:08:08.579
of the last conversations with my dad, he asked

00:08:08.579 --> 00:08:11.339
me to write a book. A few months later, my dad

00:08:11.339 --> 00:08:13.899
died, my marriage was dissolved, and I was sitting

00:08:13.899 --> 00:08:16.839
across the desk from my financial planner. And

00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:18.759
he said, even though you lost your dad in your

00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:21.100
marriage, you're having your best financial year

00:08:21.100 --> 00:08:23.759
ever. You're actually a millionaire. And I think

00:08:23.759 --> 00:08:26.519
you should teach women and a few good men how

00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:29.500
you did it. So I wrote a book. It's called How

00:08:29.500 --> 00:08:32.220
to Make a Six -Figure Income Working Part -Time.

00:08:32.830 --> 00:08:35.750
And in the book, I divide life into seven key

00:08:35.750 --> 00:08:38.490
areas. I call them the seven pillars of abundance.

00:08:38.850 --> 00:08:41.610
And when you have these seven key areas of your

00:08:41.610 --> 00:08:45.509
life at a level 10, you can be, do, or have anything

00:08:45.509 --> 00:08:48.830
you want. So now I'm happily married to my soulmate

00:08:48.830 --> 00:08:52.570
and I love coaching women. I coach them one -on

00:08:52.570 --> 00:08:54.889
-one. I do group coaching and I'm leading my

00:08:54.889 --> 00:08:58.970
second international retreat in Belize in a month.

00:08:59.210 --> 00:09:06.769
Jeez. Now, I just want to clarify one second,

00:09:06.970 --> 00:09:11.389
because I like how you said that you coach women

00:09:11.389 --> 00:09:15.830
and a few good men. And it just occurred to me,

00:09:15.830 --> 00:09:19.509
because it's a movie, a few good men. I was like,

00:09:19.610 --> 00:09:23.309
am I going to get some kind of lawsuit about

00:09:23.309 --> 00:09:28.559
this now, too? I don't think so. I'm kidding.

00:09:28.700 --> 00:09:33.399
I don't think they own the phrase. I hope not,

00:09:33.500 --> 00:09:35.940
because then it'd be like killer sweat, too.

00:09:35.980 --> 00:09:38.340
It's like trademarking every single word of the

00:09:38.340 --> 00:09:41.480
dictionary. Exactly. I didn't realize she was

00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:45.379
doing that. Well, it feels like it. Anyway, I

00:09:45.379 --> 00:09:49.139
mean, I read this article once somewhere that

00:09:49.139 --> 00:09:54.350
she's like trademarking a lot of It seems like

00:09:54.350 --> 00:09:58.750
a lot of just like one or two words that I had

00:09:58.750 --> 00:10:01.490
to clip here and there to be part of her music

00:10:01.490 --> 00:10:04.389
and everything. And I was like, how about you

00:10:04.389 --> 00:10:06.850
just trademark the whole dictionary, why don't

00:10:06.850 --> 00:10:10.129
you? I was like, I'll be kind of screwed then.

00:10:11.269 --> 00:10:13.809
That's the world anyway. She's like, you know,

00:10:13.889 --> 00:10:18.710
ruling the world. Why not? Just buy a dictionary.

00:10:19.789 --> 00:10:26.950
Yeah. So my first question for you is, what made

00:10:26.950 --> 00:10:32.009
you want to become, like go into acting? Well,

00:10:32.070 --> 00:10:35.909
it's funny. When I was three, my sister asked

00:10:35.909 --> 00:10:38.389
me what I wanted to be when I grew up. And I

00:10:38.389 --> 00:10:42.289
said, Ginger on Gilligan's Island. And that was

00:10:42.289 --> 00:10:45.409
a really old show. And Ginger was the movie star.

00:10:45.909 --> 00:10:48.750
And I just, it was a childhood dream of mine.

00:10:48.789 --> 00:10:52.860
I love like. entertaining people and being creative.

00:10:53.019 --> 00:10:56.379
And I thought it would be so much fun to move

00:10:56.379 --> 00:11:02.659
to LA and be an actress. That's awesome. Like,

00:11:02.700 --> 00:11:07.200
you know, I just wanted to, if someone were to

00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.379
watch Friends and the small parts you were in,

00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:14.539
what episode, do you remember which episode you

00:11:14.539 --> 00:11:19.220
were in? Yeah, I was in the episode where Jennifer

00:11:19.220 --> 00:11:22.879
Aniston goes to the set of Joey's Soap Opera.

00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:26.700
And she gets asked on a date by the star of Joey's

00:11:26.700 --> 00:11:29.279
soap opera. And when she tells him that she's

00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:33.580
pregnant, he walks away from her. And I was playing

00:11:33.580 --> 00:11:36.559
the script supervisor on the set of Joey's soap

00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:39.019
opera. So it was a featured extra role, but you

00:11:39.019 --> 00:11:41.679
could definitely see me. And it was really fun

00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:44.940
to be on the set of Friends because it's a live

00:11:44.940 --> 00:11:48.899
show. I got to meet Jennifer Aniston and Matthew

00:11:48.899 --> 00:11:51.360
LeBlanc and they were just so nice. And it was

00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:53.899
just such an amazing experience. I had no idea

00:11:53.899 --> 00:11:56.860
when I was on the show, it was already a hit,

00:11:56.899 --> 00:11:59.659
but I didn't realize it would be like forever

00:11:59.659 --> 00:12:03.960
iconic. Like it is. The reason why I had asked,

00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:07.379
because like, I've only saw bits and pieces here

00:12:07.379 --> 00:12:11.480
and there when, when I was on TV and then like,

00:12:11.820 --> 00:12:14.059
I saw a couple episodes when I was on a plane

00:12:14.059 --> 00:12:18.860
ride to Ireland, but it was, like, not the very

00:12:18.860 --> 00:12:22.059
beginning shows. It was, like, season, I think,

00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:26.740
seven, I believe. I think it was season 10, episode

00:12:26.740 --> 00:12:29.919
13, but I don't know for sure. But go on. Yeah.

00:12:31.240 --> 00:12:33.399
I had to fill it with ass because, like, now

00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:38.039
that I met someone who was on there, like, now

00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:42.000
I want to go see it now. Aw. Yeah, I was actually

00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:45.120
I went to Ireland this year for the first time.

00:12:45.220 --> 00:12:48.320
I went to Dublin and it was amazing. When did

00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:51.700
you go to Ireland? I went there last October

00:12:51.700 --> 00:12:57.379
and I was like, wow. It was funny, you know,

00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:00.379
like the family crest and whatnot. I can find

00:13:00.379 --> 00:13:05.950
everyone in my family except for Claire. even

00:13:05.950 --> 00:13:08.710
in Kathy Claire. And I was like, am I in a posture?

00:13:09.210 --> 00:13:11.830
And I was like, I don't like this. Is that where

00:13:11.830 --> 00:13:15.850
your family's from? Part of my dad's families

00:13:15.850 --> 00:13:22.269
are from there, but there was no family crossed.

00:13:23.289 --> 00:13:26.590
But that's a big city or county, Claire, right?

00:13:27.110 --> 00:13:34.730
Yeah. Yeah, so awesome. We got a whole county,

00:13:34.809 --> 00:13:36.929
but we don't even get a crest. What the heck?

00:13:37.269 --> 00:13:40.429
Just have AI create a family crest for you. I

00:13:40.429 --> 00:13:46.909
should. I could sell it. Exactly. So my next

00:13:46.909 --> 00:13:51.169
question for you is how did you come up with

00:13:51.169 --> 00:13:55.009
your podcast and what is your podcast about?

00:13:55.450 --> 00:14:01.870
Well, my podcast was such an unexpected gift.

00:14:01.950 --> 00:14:06.210
I went to this personal growth seminar and she

00:14:06.210 --> 00:14:09.350
gave us a challenge at lunch. She said, ask five

00:14:09.350 --> 00:14:11.730
people who really intimidate you to be on your

00:14:11.730 --> 00:14:15.610
podcast. So of course I took the challenge on,

00:14:15.690 --> 00:14:18.809
I asked the five people, one of them said yes.

00:14:19.070 --> 00:14:22.230
And I was like, oh, well, this is someone I really

00:14:22.230 --> 00:14:24.730
respect. I better figure out how to have a podcast

00:14:24.730 --> 00:14:28.960
since she agreed to be on it. And I figured it

00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:32.159
out. And ever since then, I've been recording

00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:36.000
a podcast consistently once a week. I just use

00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:40.019
Zoom, nothing fancy. And it's called the Balance

00:14:40.019 --> 00:14:43.200
Beautiful and Abundant Show. And I picked that

00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:45.639
name because that's what my coaching practice

00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:48.259
is all about, is helping people go from burned

00:14:48.259 --> 00:14:50.879
out to balance beautiful and abundant. That's

00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:55.879
awesome because, you know, I've been trying to

00:14:58.529 --> 00:15:01.149
I'll just say I've been down the burnout route

00:15:01.149 --> 00:15:06.470
one too many times. I've been trying to take

00:15:06.470 --> 00:15:09.929
a step back and figure out ways to manage to

00:15:09.929 --> 00:15:16.070
not get to the burnout point. I've been doing

00:15:16.070 --> 00:15:22.110
more yoga. I've been taking better care of my

00:15:22.110 --> 00:15:25.809
mental health. I think one of the things that's

00:15:25.809 --> 00:15:28.970
been... i've been feeling the coronav from and

00:15:28.970 --> 00:15:30.990
i've been getting a lot of headaches from is

00:15:30.990 --> 00:15:36.409
that in my new in my new house i mean my room

00:15:36.409 --> 00:15:40.750
gets all hot and stuffy and so all the stuffiness

00:15:40.750 --> 00:15:46.169
is my hay gets all my clod and everything else

00:15:46.169 --> 00:15:50.269
is like And I wake up with pounding headaches

00:15:50.269 --> 00:15:53.149
at times. And I was like, I want to go smash

00:15:53.149 --> 00:15:56.049
the AC unit in my house. And it's like, it does

00:15:56.049 --> 00:15:59.870
not work whatsoever. To be fair, the house was

00:15:59.870 --> 00:16:05.909
built in the 1970s. Stay with us. We'll be right

00:16:05.909 --> 00:16:10.070
back. Thanks to our sponsorship with Deep Stash.

00:16:10.370 --> 00:16:12.889

00:16:12.889 --> 00:16:17.190
Stash? Well, Deep Stash allows you to learn stuff.

00:16:17.820 --> 00:16:21.259

free plan. And if you want to check them out,

00:16:38.379 --> 00:16:43.639
Either or will work. But definitely check them

00:16:43.639 --> 00:16:46.340
out because if you're a daily learner like me

00:16:46.340 --> 00:16:49.039
and like to learn new stuff, I don't always have

00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:53.320
time to read 11 -minute articles or 15 -minute

00:16:53.320 --> 00:16:58.559
articles during the day. So with Deep Stash,

00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:01.539
I can listen to them on the go while I'm driving

00:17:01.539 --> 00:17:06.480
the car or on an airplane, etc. So go check out

00:17:06.480 --> 00:17:09.440
my friends at Deep Stash. You won't regret it.

00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:18.059
Well, I think that's an important thing to fix,

00:17:18.220 --> 00:17:21.880
right? If you're too hot and you're not getting

00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:24.019
good rest and that's causing burnout, that's

00:17:24.019 --> 00:17:32.680
a pretty easy fix. Yeah, it should be easy. Where

00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:41.980
the vents are, they're 6 by 14 inches. So I can't

00:17:41.980 --> 00:17:45.319
just get a replacement thing for the vent. It's

00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:48.619
like, why can't it just be that easy? And these

00:17:48.619 --> 00:17:53.839
companies on Amazon, it's like 6 by 12. It's

00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:56.759
like, would it kill you to make two more inches?

00:17:57.099 --> 00:17:59.480
It's like, charge more money for two more inches.

00:17:59.500 --> 00:18:03.690
Come on. That's ridiculous. There's only one

00:18:03.690 --> 00:18:07.890
company out of all the third -party sellers on

00:18:07.890 --> 00:18:13.049
Amazon that has 6x14 and it has the worst reviews.

00:18:13.450 --> 00:18:15.089
And it's like, wow, there's even somebody worse

00:18:15.089 --> 00:18:20.869
than Comcast? Oh, my God. I didn't know that's

00:18:20.869 --> 00:18:24.970
a thing. I noticed you're wearing an Indiana

00:18:24.970 --> 00:18:27.710
University hat. What is the significance of that?

00:18:28.200 --> 00:18:32.700
My brother went to Indiana University in Bloomington,

00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:36.839
Indiana. My dad and my sister went there, so

00:18:36.839 --> 00:18:43.180
that's great. It's funny. I'm wearing my favorite

00:18:43.180 --> 00:18:51.420
basketball team, the Duke Blue Devils. I root

00:18:51.420 --> 00:18:53.500
for both the teams, but when they play against

00:18:53.500 --> 00:18:57.460
each other, I always have to pick Duke. Nice.

00:18:57.980 --> 00:19:02.980
Pretty much since the beginning, when I was born,

00:19:03.180 --> 00:19:08.680
I watched Duke every single day when my dad was

00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:11.339
watching the Duke game, and I just got into watching

00:19:11.339 --> 00:19:16.920
Duke ever since. I think I've only missed a few

00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:19.500
Duke games because of other commitments, but

00:19:19.500 --> 00:19:24.019
then they were also, like, now on some streaming

00:19:24.019 --> 00:19:28.220
platforms that I don't have. So it's, like, fine.

00:19:28.420 --> 00:19:30.619
But, you know, if I can watch at least pretty

00:19:30.619 --> 00:19:33.940
much all the season, maybe the whole season except

00:19:33.940 --> 00:19:40.680
for maybe three games, fine. But it's very hard

00:19:40.680 --> 00:19:43.500
sometimes because now my dad likes to watch Indiana.

00:19:43.579 --> 00:19:46.309
It's like... They're a losing team. It's hard

00:19:46.309 --> 00:19:55.069
to watch them. Because I'm from Cincinnati, and

00:19:55.069 --> 00:19:57.869
the Bengals have had a lot of years of losing.

00:19:58.769 --> 00:20:00.869
It's been exciting, though, the last couple years

00:20:00.869 --> 00:20:04.289
watching them make their comeback. I know that

00:20:04.289 --> 00:20:07.329
feeling because I'm a New York Giants fan, and

00:20:07.329 --> 00:20:10.589
watching them every single season, I'm like...

00:20:10.940 --> 00:20:13.359
It just gets worse and worse every single season.

00:20:13.839 --> 00:20:16.839
Yeah. I was like, can we get Eli Manning back?

00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:20.559
Because right now our quarterback is milking

00:20:20.559 --> 00:20:24.359
the organization for $164 million. That's a lot.

00:20:25.469 --> 00:20:28.730
Yeah, I had a funny joke the other day. I said

00:20:28.730 --> 00:20:31.349
to one of my friends at Karate, I said to them,

00:20:31.410 --> 00:20:34.109
I was like, you know, I should pitch to the owners

00:20:34.109 --> 00:20:36.329
of the Giants. It's like, here, hire me for my

00:20:36.329 --> 00:20:39.509
motivational speaking experience, and I could

00:20:39.509 --> 00:20:42.349
be your motivational speaking and keynote speaker

00:20:42.349 --> 00:20:44.950
for the Giants. And it's like, hire me for one

00:20:44.950 --> 00:20:48.329
year for one million. I'll be cheaper than your

00:20:48.329 --> 00:20:52.829
whole organization. There you go. My friend said

00:20:52.829 --> 00:20:57.450
to me, he's like, yeah, well, you know, they're

00:20:57.450 --> 00:20:59.369
not going to hire you. You have to make a compelling

00:20:59.369 --> 00:21:04.269
offer for them. Why are you being a million dollars

00:21:04.269 --> 00:21:06.150
and worth a million dollars? He's like, well,

00:21:06.250 --> 00:21:09.869
the coal bike sure is heck wide for $164 million.

00:21:11.170 --> 00:21:13.690
I was like, at least I would show up and actually

00:21:13.690 --> 00:21:17.910
do my job very well. I'm like, he is, but whatever.

00:21:19.690 --> 00:21:22.369
He's been there for six years. He has no excuse.

00:21:23.029 --> 00:21:27.769
Yeah, exactly. So my next question for you is,

00:21:27.910 --> 00:21:33.609
where do you see your podcast and business in

00:21:33.609 --> 00:21:37.329
the next couple of years? Well, for my podcast,

00:21:37.470 --> 00:21:40.569
I would love to get some brand sponsors. I have

00:21:40.569 --> 00:21:43.890
not gotten to that level yet. That would be the

00:21:43.890 --> 00:21:48.579
next level to monetize it. And as far as my coaching,

00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:52.880
I would love to have less one -on -one clients

00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:56.079
and more group clients so I have more free time.

00:21:56.519 --> 00:22:01.420
And I would love to have more international retreats.

00:22:01.789 --> 00:22:05.269
So far, I've had one in Medellin, Colombia. My

00:22:05.269 --> 00:22:08.890
next one up and coming is in Belize. And in fact,

00:22:08.950 --> 00:22:11.990
anybody who listens to this podcast can get $200

00:22:11.990 --> 00:22:14.650
off my next retreat in Belize. It's going to

00:22:14.650 --> 00:22:17.430
be amazing. It's a luxury wellness retreat right

00:22:17.430 --> 00:22:21.230
on the beach. So more retreats. And I'd also

00:22:21.230 --> 00:22:24.630
like to get into keynote speeches. That's awesome.

00:22:25.049 --> 00:22:29.720
You know. I wanted to jump back to one of the

00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:32.680
things you said earlier, that I've been in some

00:22:32.680 --> 00:22:37.720
toxic friendships. Yeah. One of them happened...

00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:42.380
They weren't toxic at first. Yeah. Because we

00:22:42.380 --> 00:22:47.019
talked, like, pretty much every single day after

00:22:47.019 --> 00:22:51.920
we went to school with each other. But then after

00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:55.890
a while, let's just say... we kind of grew apart

00:22:55.890 --> 00:23:03.430
and let's just say there was some kind of misinterpretations

00:23:03.430 --> 00:23:09.190
and was not enough clarifying and or reassurance

00:23:09.190 --> 00:23:18.619
and it kind of just felt and lack of apology

00:23:18.619 --> 00:23:23.019
etc i'm kind of trying to say everything broad

00:23:23.019 --> 00:23:28.319
just so that and if the person listens then not

00:23:28.319 --> 00:23:32.000
knowing it's them so i'm just trying to keep

00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:37.579
it as broad as possible if that makes any sense

00:23:37.579 --> 00:23:41.359
yeah well uh do you know if your friend listens

00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:43.619
to your podcast i wish more of my friends listened

00:23:43.619 --> 00:23:47.119
to mine it's funny like My closest friends and

00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:49.599
family members don't listen to my podcast, but

00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:52.519
strangers like are obsessed with it. I just think

00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:56.380
that's kind of how it goes sometimes. Well, let's

00:23:56.380 --> 00:24:00.240
just say this person is no longer part of my

00:24:00.240 --> 00:24:05.640
life because of the toxic, the person's sort

00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:10.079
of purpose. I mean, I'm not like saying that

00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:15.420
I have friends for certain purposes, but. The

00:24:15.420 --> 00:24:19.579
person helped me get through a tough time in

00:24:19.579 --> 00:24:23.700
my life when I needed it the most. But that person

00:24:23.700 --> 00:24:29.640
is really just distance. And I'm distance too.

00:24:29.759 --> 00:24:34.099
We kind of fell on the wayside, so to speak.

00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:41.720
But I'm kind of glad that we kind of fell out

00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:46.799
of touch because... I'll just say it wasn't really

00:24:46.799 --> 00:24:52.720
a healthy friendship, so to speak. It was more,

00:24:52.900 --> 00:24:58.099
she was not, the person was not very positive

00:24:58.099 --> 00:25:01.599
to be around. And I know I have my moments, but

00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:05.299
it was just like, this sucks, this sucks, this

00:25:05.299 --> 00:25:09.880
sucks. And it's like, I'm done. Yeah, I mean,

00:25:09.880 --> 00:25:12.539
part of being on the path of personal growth

00:25:12.539 --> 00:25:16.339
is knowing. When a relationship no longer serves

00:25:16.339 --> 00:25:19.759
you and then having the confidence and the courage

00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:22.779
to walk away, sometimes a toxic relationship

00:25:22.779 --> 00:25:26.140
can be like an old pair of jeans that they're

00:25:26.140 --> 00:25:28.759
comfortable, even though they're out of fashion

00:25:28.759 --> 00:25:32.319
and, you know, worn out and, you know, stained,

00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:35.460
but you gotta, you gotta be willing to walk away.

00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:38.019
And I believe that people are in our lives for

00:25:38.019 --> 00:25:41.279
a reason or a season or a lifetime. And it's

00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:45.630
important to. to know when to walk away. And

00:25:45.630 --> 00:25:48.769
like I also said, I admit that I have my days

00:25:48.769 --> 00:25:52.690
of maybe pure negativity, but then there's other

00:25:52.690 --> 00:25:55.289
days where I'm like, I feel on top of the world

00:25:55.289 --> 00:26:02.509
and everything's great. But let's just say that

00:26:02.509 --> 00:26:06.470
person wasn't right for me anymore. And I was

00:26:06.470 --> 00:26:10.650
like, this is the new me and that is... The old

00:26:10.650 --> 00:26:14.470
me. Well, I mean, part of me is old me. And I

00:26:14.470 --> 00:26:16.349
was like, I don't want to hold on to part of

00:26:16.349 --> 00:26:20.769
the old me anymore. Yeah, it's really hard, you

00:26:20.769 --> 00:26:23.450
know, whether I've been on both sides. You know,

00:26:23.490 --> 00:26:25.390
I've had friends walk away from me. I've walked

00:26:25.390 --> 00:26:31.829
away from friends. To lose a relationship. I

00:26:31.829 --> 00:26:35.289
always said that the people that stay around

00:26:35.289 --> 00:26:39.190
you more are the ones who are meant to be around

00:26:39.190 --> 00:26:45.119
you. And they won't try to, they won't judge

00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:49.319
you, treat you weird or treat you like you're

00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:53.140
weird. They won't treat you differently than

00:26:53.140 --> 00:26:57.400
they accept you for who you are. And whether

00:26:57.400 --> 00:27:00.640
it's you have good days or bad days, a mix of

00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:05.259
both. And that's where true friends come in.

00:27:05.859 --> 00:27:09.140
Yeah. And the other person was not a true friend.

00:27:10.099 --> 00:27:13.039
Yeah, well, you just got to wish them well and

00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:18.119
move on, right? Detach with love. Yeah. I mean,

00:27:18.180 --> 00:27:20.920
I didn't hold it against them, but I was like,

00:27:20.960 --> 00:27:23.420
it's time for me to move on from my mental health.

00:27:23.660 --> 00:27:28.720
And I was like, again? And they're like, Chuck?

00:27:29.819 --> 00:27:32.779
I mean, it wasn't that simple. I wish I could

00:27:32.779 --> 00:27:34.920
say it was that simple. I'd be lying if I said

00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:38.349
it was that simple. Yes. I feel like one of those

00:27:38.349 --> 00:27:41.089
info commercials that's like, it's that simple,

00:27:41.309 --> 00:27:45.950
a caveman can do it. I don't think relationships

00:27:45.950 --> 00:27:50.009
are ever simple. So I see on your screen autism

00:27:50.009 --> 00:27:54.190
parenting. Are you a parent? No, that was featured

00:27:54.190 --> 00:27:59.650
in Autism Parenting Magazine. I was sharing my...

00:28:00.569 --> 00:28:03.609
I was sharing a piece written by me because they

00:28:03.609 --> 00:28:08.549
take anything from any advocate or whatnot. So

00:28:08.549 --> 00:28:12.130
I was sharing a perspective and they gave me

00:28:12.130 --> 00:28:16.589
like two and a half pages in their magazine.

00:28:17.109 --> 00:28:21.970
I got a digital copy of it. Great. I was like,

00:28:22.049 --> 00:28:26.369
sweet. And I was actually kind of surprised that

00:28:26.369 --> 00:28:30.059
they gave me two and a half pages because Let's

00:28:30.059 --> 00:28:33.420
just say, you know how editors could just edit

00:28:33.420 --> 00:28:37.000
stuff down or reword stuff to make it shorter

00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:39.920
to fit their stuff? They didn't do any of that.

00:28:41.220 --> 00:28:44.799
I tried to get as slow as possible. You must

00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:49.160
be a good writer. I would say I'm always learning

00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:52.740
on how to improve my writing. I wouldn't say

00:28:52.740 --> 00:28:56.359
I'm like James Patterson or any of those people.

00:28:57.319 --> 00:29:01.170
Not even close. Though I kind of think James

00:29:01.170 --> 00:29:03.849
Pattinson is kind of like a robot. I don't think

00:29:03.849 --> 00:29:07.349
he ever sleeps. I'm not familiar with him. What

00:29:07.349 --> 00:29:11.069
did he write? He writes a lot of books called

00:29:11.069 --> 00:29:22.710
Alex Cross. And he has one called NYPD Red. He

00:29:22.710 --> 00:29:26.990
also... What else did he write? Are they like

00:29:26.990 --> 00:29:31.130
psychological thriller type novels? They're kind

00:29:31.130 --> 00:29:39.490
of like thrillers, mysteries, fiction. I read

00:29:39.490 --> 00:29:44.849
a lot of fiction. I also started reading a lot

00:29:44.849 --> 00:29:49.210
of nonfiction. But I tend to lean more on the

00:29:49.210 --> 00:29:52.329
fiction side because that's how I got into reading

00:29:52.329 --> 00:29:58.559
a lot. I always find that I can learn many things

00:29:58.559 --> 00:30:01.000
from fictional books as well and not just self

00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:05.700
-help books. Like one of the books I've been

00:30:05.700 --> 00:30:09.740
currently reading, I can't say the name at the

00:30:09.740 --> 00:30:12.740
moment because the episode's not out yet. And

00:30:12.740 --> 00:30:17.000
if I do say it, it will give out that episode

00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:20.839
that's coming up. And I'm not going to say when.

00:30:21.759 --> 00:30:27.849
But basically... The episode, basically the book

00:30:27.849 --> 00:30:31.349
that I'm reading, I've learned a lot of similar

00:30:31.349 --> 00:30:35.410
things from what the characters experience in

00:30:35.410 --> 00:30:40.589
the book. And I was like, wow, that sounds exactly

00:30:40.589 --> 00:30:43.390
like me. Oh, this sounds exactly like me. Oh,

00:30:43.430 --> 00:30:46.009
this is how I feel some days. I was like, wow,

00:30:46.230 --> 00:30:50.089
I really like this book. It's like these four

00:30:50.089 --> 00:30:53.150
group main characters that I'm... I feel like

00:30:53.150 --> 00:30:57.769
I have them all part of me in my head. That's

00:30:57.769 --> 00:31:08.750
great. So my next question for you is, when you

00:31:08.750 --> 00:31:11.490
coach people, what kind of people come to you

00:31:11.490 --> 00:31:18.039
for need for your coaching advice? Main coaching

00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:21.200
clients are high -achieving women who are struggling

00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:25.299
with overwhelm and burnout, and they are not

00:31:25.299 --> 00:31:30.099
able to set boundaries. There are seven key areas

00:31:30.099 --> 00:31:32.940
of life, and they usually have one or two areas

00:31:32.940 --> 00:31:36.279
at a level 10, and the other ones are being neglected.

00:31:36.619 --> 00:31:39.500
Maybe they're making a lot of money, but they

00:31:39.500 --> 00:31:41.480
haven't had a date for 10 years, and they're

00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:44.339
really lonely, or maybe they're in great physical

00:31:44.339 --> 00:31:49.829
shape. they are emotionally erect, like they're

00:31:49.829 --> 00:31:54.009
really anxious or depressed. So the goal is to

00:31:54.009 --> 00:31:57.150
have all seven areas of life in alignment. And

00:31:57.150 --> 00:31:59.430
the seven pillars are spirituality, fitness,

00:31:59.650 --> 00:32:04.089
emotions, romance, mental, social, and financial.

00:32:04.250 --> 00:32:07.150
And I help women get all seven areas of their

00:32:07.150 --> 00:32:14.190
life to a level 10. Stay with us. We'll be right

00:32:14.190 --> 00:32:17.519
back. Did you know Crazy Fitness Guy is not backed

00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:22.019
by any corporate company and is just a one -person

00:32:22.019 --> 00:32:25.720
show? Well, there's this term around the podcasting

00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:30.339
community called indie podcasters. I'm an independent

00:32:30.339 --> 00:32:34.400
podcast creator, so because I'm not backed by

00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:38.019
a huge big corporate company, well, if I run

00:32:38.019 --> 00:32:41.779
out of money and everything else, Crazy Fitness

00:32:41.779 --> 00:32:45.880
Guy would no longer exist. No website, no podcast,

00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:49.079

00:33:18.529 --> 00:33:22.950
what causes burnout the most? What causes burnout

00:33:22.950 --> 00:33:28.250
is taking on too many things and neglecting self

00:33:28.250 --> 00:33:35.309
-care and not prioritizing rest. Women and also

00:33:35.309 --> 00:33:39.150
men in this day and age are moving so fast and

00:33:39.150 --> 00:33:42.190
there's a lot of hustle culture happening where

00:33:42.190 --> 00:33:45.700
people are just so busy. and they're running

00:33:45.700 --> 00:33:48.180
from the next to the next to the next event or

00:33:48.180 --> 00:33:53.160
call, and they don't slow down enough to do the

00:33:53.160 --> 00:33:55.079
things that I'm sure you guys talk about on this

00:33:55.079 --> 00:33:58.400
show, you know, hydrate, supplements, exercise,

00:33:58.660 --> 00:34:03.420
getting a good night's sleep, meditation. And

00:34:03.420 --> 00:34:07.299
self -care is not selfish. A lot of people think

00:34:07.299 --> 00:34:10.820
that it's selfish to say, oh, I can't go to that.

00:34:11.210 --> 00:34:13.309
event tonight that you're inviting me to because

00:34:13.309 --> 00:34:15.070
I'm going to do a workout or I'm going to do

00:34:15.070 --> 00:34:18.449
yoga or I need some great sleep tonight. And

00:34:18.449 --> 00:34:21.630
I like to tell my clients, don't do anything

00:34:21.630 --> 00:34:24.090
out of fear, obligation or guilt, because if

00:34:24.090 --> 00:34:26.389
you show up and you don't really want to be there,

00:34:26.550 --> 00:34:29.210
then you're not going to be of service to that

00:34:29.210 --> 00:34:33.429
person anyway. And our energy is kind of like

00:34:33.429 --> 00:34:36.329
a cup of water or tea. Like this is a big cup.

00:34:36.349 --> 00:34:39.719
It's a Stanley cup. If I keep filling it up,

00:34:39.760 --> 00:34:42.559
then I'll be able to give from the overflow.

00:34:42.820 --> 00:34:46.300
And if I keep pouring out of it and it gets depleted,

00:34:46.300 --> 00:34:49.099
then eventually you get burned out, you get sick,

00:34:49.179 --> 00:34:55.840
and you could even die. You know, just a couple

00:34:55.840 --> 00:35:00.760
of weeks ago, I was in this annoying funk. And

00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:04.300
I probably annoy my parents over and over and

00:35:04.300 --> 00:35:08.730
over again because... I know I was in the funk,

00:35:08.829 --> 00:35:11.409
but I just couldn't get myself out of the funk.

00:35:11.809 --> 00:35:16.449
And I know why I was in the funk, but pretty

00:35:16.449 --> 00:35:21.230
much I just kept... I kind of felt like I hit

00:35:21.230 --> 00:35:24.809
rock bottom a little bit, where I didn't feel

00:35:24.809 --> 00:35:29.250
like doing anything whatsoever. I was like, I

00:35:29.250 --> 00:35:32.809
have to do this, this, this, and the list goes

00:35:32.809 --> 00:35:38.630
on and on. And I was like... I can't do it. I

00:35:38.630 --> 00:35:40.409
was like, I just couldn't do it. I couldn't show

00:35:40.409 --> 00:35:44.449
up that day. I literally just sat on the floor

00:35:44.449 --> 00:35:47.130
with my dogs and just started petting them. I

00:35:47.130 --> 00:35:50.110
was like, I don't know what's going on. My dog

00:35:50.110 --> 00:35:53.590
behind me. We're going the wrong way. That's

00:35:53.590 --> 00:35:59.849
my baby right there, Indigo. Nice dog. That's

00:35:59.849 --> 00:36:04.199
sometimes what you need to do. Have a couple

00:36:04.199 --> 00:36:07.219
days or at least one day, like a mental health

00:36:07.219 --> 00:36:10.900
day, where you just relax and walk and hang out

00:36:10.900 --> 00:36:14.820
with your dog. And your body or your mind was

00:36:14.820 --> 00:36:17.019
probably telling you to stop or you're going

00:36:17.019 --> 00:36:21.940
to burn out. You just needed to stop and recalibrate.

00:36:23.460 --> 00:36:29.869
Well, I really appreciate those people. Friends

00:36:29.869 --> 00:36:35.570
of mine, not the person I told you I got away

00:36:35.570 --> 00:36:41.829
from over the years, but people that I started

00:36:41.829 --> 00:36:47.550
connecting with and my other friends and new

00:36:47.550 --> 00:36:51.010
friends reached out to me because they noticed

00:36:51.010 --> 00:36:57.809
that something was just bothering me. Even in

00:36:57.809 --> 00:37:01.750
karate, like, all I kept on was, I kept on still

00:37:01.750 --> 00:37:04.570
being in the funk. Like, I was just quiet. I

00:37:04.570 --> 00:37:07.809
was not myself. When I was punching and kicking,

00:37:08.050 --> 00:37:10.869
all I kept on, like, thinking is, like, what's

00:37:10.869 --> 00:37:12.610
going on with me mentally? And it was, like,

00:37:12.630 --> 00:37:15.449
my head was everywhere but focusing. It was,

00:37:15.489 --> 00:37:17.349
like, oh, this is great. It's, like, if this

00:37:17.349 --> 00:37:19.409
was a real -life fight, I'd be knocked out in

00:37:19.409 --> 00:37:24.349
one second. I was, like, you can't multitask

00:37:24.349 --> 00:37:26.429
with this, Jimmy. And it's, like, when my brain's,

00:37:26.449 --> 00:37:29.000
like, try me and it's like no brain this is not

00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:32.579
a good place to do so it's like more on brain

00:37:32.579 --> 00:37:36.480
well i'm glad you came out of it and didn't get

00:37:36.480 --> 00:37:40.199
hurt in karate well the only way that got the

00:37:40.199 --> 00:37:43.900
few things that helped me got out of the burnout

00:37:43.900 --> 00:37:47.519
was my friends reaching out to me and then also

00:37:47.519 --> 00:37:52.659
one of my my mentor who's been uh helping me

00:37:52.659 --> 00:37:57.110
land a ted talk hosted a webinar that I attended

00:37:57.110 --> 00:38:01.110
to, and I had a missed karate class that night,

00:38:01.210 --> 00:38:03.650
but I was like, if this can help me get out of

00:38:03.650 --> 00:38:07.329
my funk, so be it. I was like, I was holding

00:38:07.329 --> 00:38:10.349
the truth flag, and I was like, I'm here, I'm

00:38:10.349 --> 00:38:13.469
down, and I was like, I'm coming. And then so

00:38:13.469 --> 00:38:16.190
I went to his webinar. I mean, not out of pity

00:38:16.190 --> 00:38:18.909
or anything, but I was like, I really wanted

00:38:18.909 --> 00:38:22.610
to get out of this funk because even if... Even

00:38:22.610 --> 00:38:24.590
when I was saying it in my head over and over

00:38:24.590 --> 00:38:28.050
again, it was getting annoying to me. I was even

00:38:28.050 --> 00:38:33.269
annoying myself after a while. Our own sad story.

00:38:34.530 --> 00:38:39.869
So my next question for you is, how do you get,

00:38:39.929 --> 00:38:43.010
in your opinion, how do you get yourself out

00:38:43.010 --> 00:38:47.469
of your thoughts or burnout when you get to that

00:38:47.469 --> 00:38:51.800
place? Well, when I feel myself getting burned

00:38:51.800 --> 00:38:56.480
out, I need to reel it back in. Like today, you

00:38:56.480 --> 00:39:00.000
know, this is my fourth podcast interview today.

00:39:00.739 --> 00:39:03.940
I've had, I have two different shows. I have

00:39:03.940 --> 00:39:05.800
the balance, beautiful and abundant show. And

00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:07.659
I launched a new show called everything, but

00:39:07.659 --> 00:39:10.880
the guy where I interview successful single women.

00:39:10.940 --> 00:39:14.019
And I've been on two shows and I'm like coaching

00:39:14.019 --> 00:39:17.639
people doing all this stuff. And, uh, I feel

00:39:17.639 --> 00:39:21.789
like. I'm done. Like after this interview, I'm

00:39:21.789 --> 00:39:24.309
not going to go out. I'm not going to talk to

00:39:24.309 --> 00:39:26.769
people. I'm just going to like make some healthy

00:39:26.769 --> 00:39:29.230
food, watch some TV and go to bed early because

00:39:29.230 --> 00:39:34.349
I feel myself getting short, being irritated

00:39:34.349 --> 00:39:38.789
with people, feeling tired. I'm fighting a cold.

00:39:39.409 --> 00:39:43.210
So when you feel that, you don't want to just

00:39:43.210 --> 00:39:45.769
like drink an energy drink and keep pushing it.

00:39:46.269 --> 00:39:49.260
That's when you really like. want to rest and

00:39:49.260 --> 00:39:54.079
reel it back in. And when I feel like I'm about

00:39:54.079 --> 00:39:58.239
to burn out like I do today, I ask myself, you

00:39:58.239 --> 00:40:00.960
know, what do I want to experience? So I want

00:40:00.960 --> 00:40:04.420
to experience being in a good mood, having energy,

00:40:04.619 --> 00:40:09.639
being excited again. How do I feel right now?

00:40:09.659 --> 00:40:13.800
Right now I'm a little bit irritated, tired,

00:40:14.300 --> 00:40:17.940
cranky, not at my best energy level. And what

00:40:17.940 --> 00:40:21.840
action is needed to get what I want while I need

00:40:21.840 --> 00:40:25.179
to just not do anything tonight and just rest?

00:40:25.699 --> 00:40:30.659
I've never been there, done that. I remember,

00:40:30.840 --> 00:40:35.260
I think last year, I remember I had this, probably

00:40:35.260 --> 00:40:39.980
about like 20 interviews in one week. I was like,

00:40:40.119 --> 00:40:43.159
knit yourself, spread this out a little bit more.

00:40:44.809 --> 00:40:47.230
Yeah, it's a lot. 20 interviews in a week is

00:40:47.230 --> 00:40:50.050
a lot. And this was not even me interviewing

00:40:50.050 --> 00:40:53.110
people. This was me going on other people's shows

00:40:53.110 --> 00:40:55.849
and it was like, okay, this was not the smartest

00:40:55.849 --> 00:40:58.750
idea I came up with. Well, that's just as much

00:40:58.750 --> 00:41:01.869
energy as interviewing people because when you're

00:41:01.869 --> 00:41:04.909
a guest on somebody's show, you want to bring

00:41:04.909 --> 00:41:11.070
the heat. Trust me. Definitely, I know that feeling.

00:41:12.190 --> 00:41:14.510
I was pretty much one down during that week,

00:41:14.570 --> 00:41:17.269
and I was like, are we done yet? And I looked

00:41:17.269 --> 00:41:19.329
at my calendar, and it was like, not my Google

00:41:19.329 --> 00:41:22.889
calendar is telling me, nope. And I was like,

00:41:23.030 --> 00:41:25.670
thanks, Google. Is this your way to give me the

00:41:25.670 --> 00:41:27.829
finger? And it was like, you did this to yourself,

00:41:28.050 --> 00:41:30.610
Jimmy. I was like, yeah, that's true. I deserve

00:41:30.610 --> 00:41:35.889
that. Exactly. It's like when I got my first

00:41:35.889 --> 00:41:40.530
pair of hiking boots this past weekend. I thought

00:41:40.530 --> 00:41:45.510
I would be a size 11 because there's some shoes

00:41:45.510 --> 00:41:53.750
I'm a size 11 wide. And then my current shoe

00:41:53.750 --> 00:41:56.110
size that I currently wear every single day,

00:41:56.309 --> 00:42:00.550
I'm a size 10 wide. So I was like, maybe I'm

00:42:00.550 --> 00:42:03.469
11. I don't know because the size 10 didn't fit

00:42:03.469 --> 00:42:09.110
me. But it turned out that I was a size 10 and

00:42:09.110 --> 00:42:15.300
a half. in a hiking booth. And even though I

00:42:15.300 --> 00:42:23.619
really hate shopping, and it was my fault because

00:42:23.619 --> 00:42:28.159
I was a little bit impatient in the store because

00:42:28.159 --> 00:42:31.059
even though there's a lot of associates in the

00:42:31.059 --> 00:42:35.320
store helping people pick out stuff and helping

00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:40.590
find their shoes off. I was just feeling very

00:42:40.590 --> 00:42:43.369
crowded because the store, like everything is

00:42:43.369 --> 00:42:45.670
just like tight, even though it's like very,

00:42:45.690 --> 00:42:50.510
very big place. I was just like, I kind of was

00:42:50.510 --> 00:42:52.449
like hyperventilating kind of a little bit. It's

00:42:52.449 --> 00:42:55.650
like, wow, there's so many choices. There's so

00:42:55.650 --> 00:42:58.090
many people around. And I was like, I'm going

00:42:58.090 --> 00:43:00.230
to come back during the week. So I bought the

00:43:00.230 --> 00:43:04.769
shoes and I wore them around for just a day.

00:43:04.929 --> 00:43:09.440
And it's like, these are too big. And it's like,

00:43:09.480 --> 00:43:12.260
if I bring this to my next trip, and it's like,

00:43:12.300 --> 00:43:15.039
this is not going to end very well. And so I

00:43:15.039 --> 00:43:17.900
brought them back, exchanged them. And it's like,

00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:20.199
I should have just done that the first time around.

00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:23.820
But it's like, I deserve that too. I was like,

00:43:23.840 --> 00:43:28.260
my impatient brain. Yeah, sometimes you got to

00:43:28.260 --> 00:43:33.480
slow down to speed up. And to be honest, also,

00:43:33.780 --> 00:43:40.210
it was... Let's just say it was my fault for

00:43:40.210 --> 00:43:44.150
being impatient just because everyone was being

00:43:44.150 --> 00:43:46.670
helped by other people. I was like, Jimmy, be

00:43:46.670 --> 00:43:50.730
patient. Jimmy, be patient. And it's funny. I

00:43:50.730 --> 00:43:54.369
can handle large crowds, but I think because

00:43:54.369 --> 00:43:57.170
all the racks and all the merchandise were just

00:43:57.170 --> 00:44:00.469
so close and everything, I just felt like I was

00:44:00.469 --> 00:44:04.650
just kind of trapped in some kind of... prison

00:44:04.650 --> 00:44:09.289
cell and I'm like what the hell it's like everywhere

00:44:09.289 --> 00:44:12.630
I go I bump into a rack and it's like can I get

00:44:12.630 --> 00:44:17.409
a little walking space here yeah totally there's

00:44:17.409 --> 00:44:21.349
not much to maneuver if I cut through I'm bumping

00:44:21.349 --> 00:44:23.889
into stuff it's like I don't like it's like it's

00:44:23.889 --> 00:44:26.510
a nice store and nice merchandise but I'm not

00:44:26.510 --> 00:44:28.809
it's like I don't like walking into all this

00:44:28.809 --> 00:44:32.489
stuff it's not my cup of tea and I hate shopping

00:44:32.489 --> 00:44:36.000
anyway That's why it's easier to shop online,

00:44:36.239 --> 00:44:41.099
right? Yeah. So my last few questions for you

00:44:41.099 --> 00:44:44.940
is, what can people do when they feel like they're

00:44:44.940 --> 00:44:49.440
reaching that burnout point? And what do you

00:44:49.440 --> 00:44:51.719
think would be helpful for them? Yeah, I would

00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:56.019
say to do my three keys of radiant health, which

00:44:56.019 --> 00:44:59.860
are H &M, not the discount store, but hydration,

00:45:00.179 --> 00:45:04.009
make sure you're getting plenty of water. Nutrition,

00:45:04.009 --> 00:45:06.730
make sure you're taking your supplements and

00:45:06.730 --> 00:45:10.710
eating what I call low inflammation diet, which

00:45:10.710 --> 00:45:13.389
is for me, I know there's lots of controversy,

00:45:13.429 --> 00:45:18.389
but this is what works for me. No wheat, no meat,

00:45:18.409 --> 00:45:22.070
no dairy and no sugar. So it's like, what do

00:45:22.070 --> 00:45:27.030
you eat? Well, I'm a pescatarian. Whatever your

00:45:27.030 --> 00:45:29.570
diet plan is that works for you to stick to it

00:45:29.570 --> 00:45:31.849
and to take supplements. And I'm a huge believer

00:45:31.849 --> 00:45:36.730
of liquid collagen. And then the M is for movement,

00:45:36.969 --> 00:45:42.630
move, walk. And the other M squared is for meditation.

00:45:42.730 --> 00:45:47.210
And I'm a huge fan of guided meditation apps.

00:45:47.409 --> 00:45:51.269
I love Insight Timer. There's a lot of free YouTube

00:45:51.269 --> 00:45:54.010
guided meditations where you can just sit still.

00:45:54.699 --> 00:45:59.119
quiet your brain and relax. And then the final

00:45:59.119 --> 00:46:03.780
thing is just to rest, get sleep, like cancel

00:46:03.780 --> 00:46:05.800
things that are on your calendar. My husband

00:46:05.800 --> 00:46:09.380
is feeling burned out and he said, I just canceled

00:46:09.380 --> 00:46:12.780
everything on my calendar for tomorrow. And I'm

00:46:12.780 --> 00:46:15.739
just going to like, just have a very mellow day.

00:46:15.880 --> 00:46:20.099
It's okay to cancel things and reschedule when

00:46:20.099 --> 00:46:25.000
you're feeling burned out. That's it. I like

00:46:25.000 --> 00:46:29.500
that you said that. I was a little bit nervous

00:46:29.500 --> 00:46:32.519
when I had to reschedule for this upcoming trip.

00:46:34.059 --> 00:46:36.280
I was like, I wonder what people are going to

00:46:36.280 --> 00:46:40.300
think of me. It's like, you were just on a vacation

00:46:40.300 --> 00:46:43.039
in July. It's like, well, that was an actual

00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:46.260
vacation. This, I'm going to be in school and

00:46:46.260 --> 00:46:49.019
on a trip at the same time. It's like, so there's

00:46:49.019 --> 00:46:50.840
probably not going to be much relaxing whatsoever.

00:46:53.300 --> 00:46:58.880
So, it's like, the trip in July was actually...

00:46:59.579 --> 00:47:03.800
online, relax, do anything I want to do, like

00:47:03.800 --> 00:47:07.719
watch TV, watch movies. This trip I'm just going

00:47:07.719 --> 00:47:14.440
to travel for fun with my brother and escape

00:47:14.440 --> 00:47:19.679
a little bit just to see a new place I've never

00:47:19.679 --> 00:47:23.219
been to. And it's a once -in -a -lifetime trip.

00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:26.239
I can't say what it is until after the show because,

00:47:26.500 --> 00:47:31.719
you know... how things get published on podcasts.

00:47:33.880 --> 00:47:39.880
But my last two questions for you is who's your

00:47:39.880 --> 00:47:42.320
favorite podcaster and why? And feel free not

00:47:42.320 --> 00:47:46.719
to say me. Ah, you're so cute. I would say my

00:47:46.719 --> 00:47:53.500
favorite podcaster is Ed Milet because he's so

00:47:53.500 --> 00:47:58.619
vulnerable, but also motivational. He really

00:47:58.619 --> 00:48:01.340
bonds with his guests. He asks great questions.

00:48:01.940 --> 00:48:07.579
And I always walk away just motivated. And I

00:48:07.579 --> 00:48:11.159
also love the Smart List podcast because there

00:48:11.159 --> 00:48:13.940
are three entertainers that are just funny. And

00:48:13.940 --> 00:48:17.320
I love the Skinny Confidential because there's

00:48:17.320 --> 00:48:21.519
lots of great health and wellness tips. And that's

00:48:21.519 --> 00:48:25.900
besides my podcast, right? Yes. Of course, yours

00:48:25.900 --> 00:48:30.340
is number one. Thank you. I'm kidding. I just

00:48:30.340 --> 00:48:33.800
always like to ask my guests who they like to

00:48:33.800 --> 00:48:37.340
listen to because sometimes I like to find more

00:48:37.340 --> 00:48:40.940
podcasts to listen to, see what other people

00:48:40.940 --> 00:48:44.860
like. What podcasts do you like to listen to?

00:48:44.880 --> 00:48:48.159
What are your top three? I would say I like to

00:48:48.159 --> 00:48:50.559
listen to Lou's House, the School of Greatness

00:48:50.559 --> 00:48:55.869
podcast. Yeah, he's good. I would say I also

00:48:55.869 --> 00:49:01.489
like to listen to some entertainment ones, one

00:49:01.489 --> 00:49:06.190
based off of one of my TV shows I watch. Then

00:49:06.190 --> 00:49:14.690
I also listen to some marketing podcasts and

00:49:14.690 --> 00:49:19.469
speaking podcasts. I subscribe to like over 100

00:49:19.469 --> 00:49:24.150
plus podcasts. I don't listen to all 100 of them,

00:49:24.230 --> 00:49:27.349
but if an episode comes out that I'm interested

00:49:27.349 --> 00:49:30.369
in, like a certain topic or a certain guest on

00:49:30.369 --> 00:49:35.309
the show, the only one that I've really listened

00:49:35.309 --> 00:49:40.190
pretty much closely to is the one based on the

00:49:40.190 --> 00:49:48.030
TV show that I watch. And so I would listen to

00:49:48.030 --> 00:49:50.610
that maybe once a week, twice a week, a couple

00:49:50.610 --> 00:49:55.480
times a week. So I'll listen to that religiously,

00:49:55.480 --> 00:50:01.480
but other stuff, it's like some things may apply

00:50:01.480 --> 00:50:05.719
to me right now, and some things can wait until

00:50:05.719 --> 00:50:08.900
later to learn. Right. It doesn't apply to me

00:50:08.900 --> 00:50:11.219
at all. So it is like, if I want to subscribe

00:50:11.219 --> 00:50:15.400
to two shows, let's just say, then I'm like...

00:50:16.219 --> 00:50:18.619
oh, they're not publishing anything that's really

00:50:18.619 --> 00:50:22.380
for me, so what else can I listen to? And so

00:50:22.380 --> 00:50:26.019
I kind of like to have a library fall, because

00:50:26.019 --> 00:50:29.059
even though I don't listen to all 100 in a day,

00:50:29.139 --> 00:50:32.139
because there's no way, because some of them

00:50:32.139 --> 00:50:35.800
can be an hour or two, two hours, and it's like,

00:50:35.940 --> 00:50:38.800
yeah, we all have 24 hours, but I'm not staying

00:50:38.800 --> 00:50:44.090
up for 24 hours. Yeah, forget that. Yeah. I was

00:50:44.090 --> 00:50:47.829
like, I'm not, I was like, I'm not a robot. Not

00:50:47.829 --> 00:50:51.710
at all. And my last question for you is where

00:50:51.710 --> 00:50:54.309
can people follow you, find you and where can

00:50:54.309 --> 00:50:58.329
people, you said you're, did you say you have

00:50:58.329 --> 00:51:02.949
a book too? Yeah, you can find my book on Amazon.

00:51:03.230 --> 00:51:05.610

00:51:05.610 --> 00:51:08.849

00:53:04.650 --> 00:53:11.050
healthy, stay safe, and stay motivated. Hydroflask

00:53:11.050 --> 00:53:14.230
is the best water bottle in my opinion because

00:53:14.230 --> 00:53:17.570
it keeps my water nice and cold and refreshing

00:53:17.570 --> 00:53:20.409
throughout the day. And yes, I do drink a lot

00:53:20.409 --> 00:53:23.230
of water throughout the day, so even though it

00:53:23.230 --> 00:53:27.510
stays colder for longer, I still like having

00:53:27.510 --> 00:53:32.909
a reusable water bottle like Hydroflask. because

00:53:32.909 --> 00:53:38.909
it just sits on my desk, and it just sits on

00:53:38.909 --> 00:53:41.210
my desk and reminds me, hey, you've got to drink

00:53:41.210 --> 00:53:45.969
water. And Hydro Flask, it keeps it cold longer,

00:53:46.110 --> 00:53:49.510
which makes me want to drink more water throughout

00:53:49.510 --> 00:53:52.929
the day, because, you know, there's nothing worse

00:53:52.929 --> 00:53:57.670
than drinking warm water. Go to hydroflask .com.

00:53:58.389 --> 00:54:01.989
And use the link in the show notes. And yes,

00:54:02.070 --> 00:54:06.030
I do get a small commission from Hydroflask,

00:54:06.110 --> 00:54:10.829
which also helps support the show. So tell them

00:54:10.829 --> 00:54:15.269
