Reclaimed Motivation: Designing Spaces for Neurodiverse Families

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 --> 00:02:16.740
out. It's free. And let me know what you think.

00:02:16.939 --> 00:02:20.759
And it's called Block P. Go check them out. Thanks

00:02:23.979 --> 00:02:26.360
Scott Healthy Living Podcast was created using

00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:30.400
Podcastle. Podcastle is truly the easiest way

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:33.759
to start your podcast. You can record and note

00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:38.199
interviews in studio quality sound. Editing is

00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:42.219
a breeze with a super intuitive and user -friendly

00:02:42.219 --> 00:02:45.719
audio editor. You can take advantage of their

00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:50.060
powerful AI tools like Magic Desk to optimize

00:02:50.060 --> 00:02:53.439
audio levels and remove background noise with

00:02:53.439 --> 00:03:00.039
just a single click. I also use Podcasts to automatically

00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:02.580
transcribe my episodes, which not only lets me

00:03:02.580 --> 00:03:06.240
share the final transcript with all of you, my

00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:09.580
listeners, on different channels, but it even

00:03:09.580 --> 00:03:13.439
allows me to use their text editor to clean up.

00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:17.520
any of the episode content I don't like. And

00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:21.340
of course, why don't we edit the audio accordingly?

00:03:22.300 --> 00:03:25.539
Podcastle is amazing. All in one platform to

00:03:25.539 --> 00:03:28.780
create your podcast via any audio and video content.

00:03:29.099 --> 00:03:33.479
Give it a try at podcastle .ai. That is podcastle

00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:37.419
.ai. I am what you call an indie podcaster. If

00:03:37.419 --> 00:03:40.580
I run out of money, there's nobody backing Crazy

.com. Welcome to another episode of Crazy Fitness

00:06:05.420 --> 00:06:07.319
Guy Healthy Living Podcast. I speak with motivation

00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:11.240
with Crazy Fitness Guy. Yes, I'm kicking it old

00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:14.639
school with, well, let's just say, I'm using

00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:17.939
Zoom for this recording today because, well,

00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:24.129
let's just say Simon's internet. Well, if you

00:06:24.129 --> 00:06:27.149
thought Verizon and I thought Verizon and Comcast

00:06:27.149 --> 00:06:31.029
were terrible, well, his internet is even worse

00:06:31.029 --> 00:06:35.990
than that. So there is a plus side to our crappy

00:06:35.990 --> 00:06:40.269
internet, too. But we had to use Zoom. I'm not

00:06:40.269 --> 00:06:44.009
saying bashing Zoom or anything. So I don't have

00:06:44.009 --> 00:06:48.920
all the fancy tools. Consider this as a throwback.

00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:51.819
Well, it's actually not a throwback, but anyway,

00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:54.819
we're going backwards at the moment. Oh, crap.

00:06:55.600 --> 00:07:00.720
I need a time machine. Anyway, here's Simon.

00:07:01.100 --> 00:07:03.959
Today we're going to be talking about his upcoming

00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:08.620
book, and I think I'm going to definitely get

00:07:08.620 --> 00:07:12.779
a copy at some point in the future when it comes

00:07:12.779 --> 00:07:17.180
out. You better get it out, Simon. Yeah, thanks,

00:07:17.339 --> 00:07:21.399
Jimmy, for getting me on this lovely Zoom meeting

00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:24.939
today, actually. Yeah, I mean, I brought a book

00:07:24.939 --> 00:07:28.420
out with a lady called Alina Guyota, and we can

00:07:28.420 --> 00:07:30.100
go into that a little bit more. But the book

00:07:30.100 --> 00:07:34.160
is actually out on Member Vault for $9 .99. So

00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:36.860
everyone check that out and I can explain a little

00:07:36.860 --> 00:07:40.120
bit more. But have you got any questions about

00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:42.620
the book? And, you know, I'll let you lead it,

00:07:42.660 --> 00:07:48.050
of course, to that. So what's the point of the

00:07:48.050 --> 00:07:52.129
book, and why is it the best time for the book

00:07:52.129 --> 00:07:57.709
to be available now? Okay, so you know, as many

00:07:57.709 --> 00:07:59.829
other people know, that I launched the 13 -Hour

00:07:59.829 --> 00:08:05.060
Life Coach book. I think in the second chapter

00:08:05.060 --> 00:08:07.639
I wrote about the kitchen and with a wavy bench

00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:10.560
and fidget toys and stuff like this. And it really

00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.139
helped my kids out with ADHD. And I did make

00:08:13.139 --> 00:08:16.100
a note back then, you know, it'd be great to

00:08:16.100 --> 00:08:20.779
write a book. And now being diagnosed with autism

00:08:20.779 --> 00:08:24.740
as well, so I have the old HD, I just wanted

00:08:24.740 --> 00:08:28.220
to bring out a book for the whole family. Because

00:08:28.220 --> 00:08:30.279
it's not just the kids that have got it these

00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:32.519
days. We can track it back to the parents, whether

00:08:32.519 --> 00:08:36.690
they've got it. autism and adhd as well so um

00:08:36.690 --> 00:08:40.669
it you know it's always good to help ourselves

00:08:40.669 --> 00:08:43.110
first of all when we have found out the solutions

00:08:43.110 --> 00:08:46.070
that really work for ourselves we can push it

00:08:46.070 --> 00:08:48.870
out to everyone else and help their lives you

00:08:48.870 --> 00:08:52.450
know help them lead a much easier life really

00:08:52.450 --> 00:08:56.009
so that's that's the reason behind it all i know

00:08:56.009 --> 00:08:59.730
it's for myself um sometimes i feel like i even

00:08:59.730 --> 00:09:01.970
though i haven't been diagnosed with adhd sometimes

00:09:01.970 --> 00:09:05.049
i feel like i have a little bit because if i

00:09:05.049 --> 00:09:08.789
sit in my chair too long i start losing my focus

00:09:08.789 --> 00:09:11.490
really quick and it's like i gotta go somewhere

00:09:11.490 --> 00:09:14.070
i gotta go take a walk i gotta do something completely

00:09:14.070 --> 00:09:17.610
else if it's something like mindlessness like

00:09:17.610 --> 00:09:21.230
cleaning something organizing something else

00:09:21.230 --> 00:09:23.970
i mean it's not like i always have to be doing

00:09:23.970 --> 00:09:26.129
something but it just has to be something different

00:09:26.129 --> 00:09:30.590
besides being at this desk yeah yeah definitely

00:09:30.590 --> 00:09:34.759
and you know we've um i've known alina alina's

00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:38.840
of spanish spanish origin actually um so i've

00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:40.799
known alina for about a year and a half she's

00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:45.059
a expert interior designer um so i'm doing the

00:09:45.059 --> 00:09:49.240
text she's doing the drawings and oh man when

00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:53.759
i saw her today and you know just it it's like

00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:55.899
seeing your best friend all the time you know

00:09:55.899 --> 00:10:00.019
um so we've got a great relationship can i show

00:10:00.019 --> 00:10:02.940
the picture there's the picture Here's the picture

00:10:02.940 --> 00:10:07.539
of the book. So kids on top of a roof. I think

00:10:07.539 --> 00:10:11.500
we do that with ADHD most definitely. And yeah,

00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:14.840
it's on pre -order and we're bringing our own

00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:18.379
four languages. So this isn't the difficult stage

00:10:18.379 --> 00:10:22.559
just yet. You make it sound so easy. I would

00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:25.500
like to write my own book as well, but so many

00:10:25.500 --> 00:10:33.100
things keep getting in my darn way. Stay with

00:10:33.100 --> 00:10:36.340

00:12:06.009 --> 00:12:09.250
And there's going to be, it's going to be different

00:12:09.250 --> 00:12:12.210
rooms, of course. You know, the original idea

00:12:12.210 --> 00:12:15.789
had a, I did a huge presentation for it, like

00:12:15.789 --> 00:12:20.409
Ikea, but on a bit of a smaller modern scale.

00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:24.980
52 hours I prepared the PDF, and that's really

00:12:24.980 --> 00:12:27.200
where most of the book information comes from.

00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:31.480
And we're just going around the rooms. So, yeah,

00:12:31.580 --> 00:12:35.159
I mean, the teenage bedroom is called cozy but

00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:39.179
not superficial. Yeah, kids' bedroom is going

00:12:39.179 --> 00:12:44.480
to be you design 70 % and your parents 30%. I

00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:46.720
think that's really cool from an autistic point

00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:51.580
of view because we like our way, you know. Well,

00:12:51.659 --> 00:12:57.139
I can't speak for me. I like a little color in

00:12:57.139 --> 00:13:02.500
my room, like blue or something. Let's just say

00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:05.620
I had one too many doctors growing up, so those

00:13:05.620 --> 00:13:10.679
doctors happened to have all those white rooms

00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:13.620
and everything. And now every time I go in a

00:13:13.620 --> 00:13:15.620
white room, it's like, can you put some splash

00:13:15.620 --> 00:13:18.539
of color somewhere in this gosh forsaken place?

00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:24.000
I don't like white. I mean, I got rid of all

00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:26.759
my white shirts pretty much just because I just

00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:32.179
don't like the color white. Yeah. It just reminds

00:13:32.179 --> 00:13:36.179
me of too much doctor's offices. I just don't

00:13:36.179 --> 00:13:38.940
like it. And plus, then it gets all dirty and

00:13:38.940 --> 00:13:41.299
everything. And then it's like, oh, come on.

00:13:42.490 --> 00:13:47.370
Yeah, no, I know. We've created a space of, you

00:13:47.370 --> 00:13:50.070
know, emptiness as well in a room so that we

00:13:50.070 --> 00:13:52.789
have the flexibility to move furniture around

00:13:52.789 --> 00:13:57.330
a little bit. You know, we've got a sofa that

00:13:57.330 --> 00:14:00.490
is in three different parts so you can actually

00:14:00.490 --> 00:14:04.549
change the angles of it when you want to. Yeah,

00:14:04.610 --> 00:14:09.529
so, I mean, what would you, Jimmy, like if...

00:14:09.710 --> 00:14:13.809
If you could come into our old HD home, of course

00:14:13.809 --> 00:14:15.990
it's called Neurodivergent and the old HD home,

00:14:16.250 --> 00:14:19.250
what would you expect having autism when you

00:14:19.250 --> 00:14:23.289
come in? What would you like to have? Like my

00:14:23.289 --> 00:14:30.929
own safe place, no one to judge me. If I'm just

00:14:30.929 --> 00:14:34.389
having an off day, people just kind of leave

00:14:34.389 --> 00:14:36.909
me alone. If I want to talk about it, I talk

00:14:36.909 --> 00:14:40.080
about it. And they just listen. They don't try

00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:43.720
to fix something for me. Because maybe if I just

00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:48.220
want something to vent to, maybe while venting,

00:14:48.220 --> 00:14:51.980
maybe something will jog my memory. Not saying

00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:55.559
forgetfulness, but just looking for the right

00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:59.259
word. Let's just say by venting, I might figure

00:14:59.259 --> 00:15:03.519
out what that problem is or a solution to the

00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:08.029
problem. If you don't mind me providing an example

00:15:08.029 --> 00:15:12.870
there. So I set up a few different automations

00:15:12.870 --> 00:15:17.289
for my business. And just a few months ago, everything

00:15:17.289 --> 00:15:20.210
was just hasn't worked, hasn't worked, hasn't

00:15:20.210 --> 00:15:24.450
worked. I got to a point and I finally dialed

00:15:24.450 --> 00:15:29.610
it in. I got 15 of the 22 to work. So only seven

00:15:29.610 --> 00:15:34.570
do not. And I was like, okay. I'm very close.

00:15:35.330 --> 00:15:43.669
My point being is I was focusing on the everything

00:15:43.669 --> 00:15:48.669
not working part and I've been stuck on it. And

00:15:48.669 --> 00:15:51.509
after just doing a lot of deep breathing exercises,

00:15:51.950 --> 00:15:56.490
I finally get my mind just to focus on the part

00:15:56.490 --> 00:16:03.620
that is not working. And so I finally, so it

00:16:03.620 --> 00:16:07.299
was a help that I kind of had some space and

00:16:07.299 --> 00:16:11.779
kind of did some different walks in nature. But

00:16:11.779 --> 00:16:15.539
basically, if like, if I was there with you,

00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:19.919
I would, I like a safe space, a space to myself,

00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:24.019
a place I can personalize my own space. Even

00:16:24.019 --> 00:16:28.259
though I'm still living with my parents due to

00:16:28.259 --> 00:16:30.879
him. my college right around the street from

00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:33.720
me and right around the corner from me. It didn't

00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:36.279
make sense for me to move out of the house. But

00:16:36.279 --> 00:16:41.899
I, for instance, my mom got freaked out when

00:16:41.899 --> 00:16:46.200
I got a shoe organizer. Not really an organizer,

00:16:46.200 --> 00:16:49.519
but just like a place to put all my shoes. It's

00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:53.879
like a portable kind of bag and everything. And

00:16:53.879 --> 00:16:56.279
she's like, I don't really like that. And I was

00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:58.740
like, it's my room. It's like, it's going to

00:16:58.740 --> 00:17:01.279
be in my room. And it's like, it's not going

00:17:01.279 --> 00:17:03.059
to be in your room. It's not going to be in the

00:17:03.059 --> 00:17:06.500
hallway. It's in my room. And it's like, I don't

00:17:06.500 --> 00:17:08.640
care what it looks like. And it's like, I just

00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:12.099
want somewhere that I can zip it up, not have

00:17:12.099 --> 00:17:15.480
any dust on it, dark hair, et cetera. And it's

00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:17.759
like, but it looks bad in your room. It's like,

00:17:17.819 --> 00:17:22.430
keyword, my room. She still hasn't. And I was

00:17:22.430 --> 00:17:25.349
finding she brought it up to her mom, which is

00:17:25.349 --> 00:17:29.470
my grandma. And my grandma said, it's his room.

00:17:29.549 --> 00:17:31.750
And I was like, hey, somebody else is on the

00:17:31.750 --> 00:17:35.210
same page. She didn't like that either. It's

00:17:35.210 --> 00:17:38.049
got to be important that your room fits to you,

00:17:38.109 --> 00:17:45.130
right? And when speaking with Alina, we want

00:17:45.130 --> 00:17:48.529
corridors to be transitional. room in a way you

00:17:48.529 --> 00:17:51.410
know when we move from one room to another um

00:17:51.410 --> 00:17:55.250
and we we're kind of um and aring about fragrances

00:17:55.250 --> 00:17:58.349
and smells at the moment and we tend we're tending

00:17:58.349 --> 00:18:01.130
not to put any of fragrances in because if there's

00:18:01.130 --> 00:18:03.410
four of you in the home and three of you have

00:18:03.410 --> 00:18:07.549
got adhd and or autism or both of you know it's

00:18:07.549 --> 00:18:11.089
um we're looking for more surefire ideas really

00:18:11.089 --> 00:18:15.400
um when you like when you would go If I design

00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.099
your old HD home, for example, so autism home,

00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:24.619
when you go into a room, do you want something

00:18:24.619 --> 00:18:27.640
as a centerpiece when you go into your room?

00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:31.259
I'd love to know about that. Well, if I'm just

00:18:31.259 --> 00:18:33.299
using my room example at the moment, I would

00:18:33.299 --> 00:18:36.700
say either my bed or my desk is my centerpiece

00:18:36.700 --> 00:18:39.519
because that's the only two things that can really

00:18:39.519 --> 00:18:43.099
fit. I mean, I have two bookcases, but they're

00:18:43.099 --> 00:18:52.079
like... This long and this wide. Yeah. They're

00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:57.539
like right against the window. But I would say

00:18:57.539 --> 00:19:01.559
either my bed or my desk is the centerpiece in

00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:04.460
my room because those are the two big things

00:19:04.460 --> 00:19:07.819
in my room. No, that's brilliant because we're

00:19:07.819 --> 00:19:10.440
working on anchoring techniques for everyone.

00:19:10.839 --> 00:19:13.480
with autism and adhd when they come into a room

00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:17.059
the the safety is there that the recognition

00:19:17.059 --> 00:19:20.259
of something they know well is there you know

00:19:20.259 --> 00:19:25.039
um and you brought up a good point actually because

00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:28.539
a bed can actually be the focal point um i'm

00:19:28.539 --> 00:19:32.640
doing a section on um it's actually quite clever

00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:36.079
a play on words ornaments instead of ornaments

00:19:36.829 --> 00:19:38.750
So ornaments are something, you know, you know

00:19:38.750 --> 00:19:40.430
what ornaments are, you put them around the home.

00:19:42.170 --> 00:19:45.450
And that's why I wanted to do ornaments. So the

00:19:45.450 --> 00:19:49.549
old HD, immense in a way, that are really just

00:19:49.549 --> 00:19:54.230
suitable for us. I don't want to give the whole

00:19:54.230 --> 00:19:57.130
game away really, but we're working on a triangle

00:19:57.130 --> 00:20:00.250
system as well for ornaments. And it really does

00:20:00.250 --> 00:20:05.069
direct the eye, gives each room, not in every

00:20:05.069 --> 00:20:10.140
room, We have it pretty variable, actually, for

00:20:10.140 --> 00:20:13.400
our senses, which are not to alert our senses,

00:20:13.440 --> 00:20:18.180
but to calm them down. And Alina has done a great

00:20:18.180 --> 00:20:21.400
job with that, with horizontal lines and vertical

00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:27.059
lines. Colors as well. I've let her do the colors.

00:20:28.200 --> 00:20:30.940
Because what were you saying? You would like

00:20:30.940 --> 00:20:41.019
a blue wall, right? I think it's too medical.

00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:45.460
And a lot of us, I go for more than regular checks

00:20:45.460 --> 00:20:49.539
at the doctor. I mean, you know, and that's another

00:20:49.539 --> 00:20:52.980
thing. We have so much testing. If it's due to

00:20:52.980 --> 00:20:55.279
a genetical disorder, of course. And the last

00:20:55.279 --> 00:20:57.920
thing we want when we get home is for it to be

00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:03.490
chaotic, isn't it really? Yeah, I think. For

00:21:03.490 --> 00:21:07.190
me, every time when I clean my bathroom or anything

00:21:07.190 --> 00:21:12.450
in my room, I use water and vinegar because vinegar

00:21:12.450 --> 00:21:15.990
is a cleaning agent, but I can't stand the smell

00:21:15.990 --> 00:21:20.670
of super -duper heavy chemicals. I can't. Every

00:21:20.670 --> 00:21:23.150
time when I went to public school, I mean, I

00:21:23.150 --> 00:21:28.069
guess that's what the custodians used, but I

00:21:28.069 --> 00:21:30.730
was like... I can't smell, I can't stand the

00:21:30.730 --> 00:21:34.789
smell. It just sounds, it smells just sterile

00:21:34.789 --> 00:21:39.789
like the doctor's offices. And I'm not like complaining

00:21:39.789 --> 00:21:42.569
or I'm not telling them to change or whatnot.

00:21:42.650 --> 00:21:45.970
I get it that guidelines, regulations, et cetera.

00:21:46.210 --> 00:21:50.829
But just for my own personal space, it's like,

00:21:50.910 --> 00:21:54.029
I don't like chemicals. I really, really don't.

00:21:54.630 --> 00:21:57.319
I can't stand chemicals. That's why we're not

00:21:57.319 --> 00:22:01.720
bringing in the smells into it because we don't

00:22:01.720 --> 00:22:05.220
want to be triggered, you know. It's like the

00:22:05.220 --> 00:22:09.660
perfume department in Macy's. Oh, yeah. Just

00:22:09.660 --> 00:22:11.980
going in there is like, that smells good, but

00:22:11.980 --> 00:22:14.460
there's too many smells in this place. I got

00:22:14.460 --> 00:22:18.380
to get the hell out. It's like when Elf from

00:22:18.380 --> 00:22:24.059
the Christmas show goes in and she goes, peach

00:22:24.059 --> 00:22:27.099
spray or apple spray and he sprays it in his

00:22:27.099 --> 00:22:30.500
mouth you know it's kind of like um yeah i know

00:22:30.500 --> 00:22:32.319
what you mean it's kind of gets you from all

00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:34.700
directions and you think you're in the the fruit

00:22:34.700 --> 00:22:39.019
aisle right it's it's um yeah typical typical

00:22:39.019 --> 00:22:44.599
neurodiversity i think yeah you know uh i also

00:22:44.599 --> 00:22:47.880
wanted to bring up something as well that uh

00:22:47.880 --> 00:22:51.650
people might not know about uh autism is that

00:22:51.650 --> 00:22:54.990
sometimes depending on the i i don't know if

00:22:54.990 --> 00:22:59.309
this this is how your brain reacts to but depending

00:22:59.309 --> 00:23:02.410
on the layout of the store doesn't sometimes

00:23:02.410 --> 00:23:05.269
seem like it gets overwhelming to you because

00:23:05.269 --> 00:23:08.750
like the other day when i was uh for my upcoming

00:23:08.750 --> 00:23:12.089
trip and i'm not gonna say for purposes for this

00:23:12.089 --> 00:23:16.710
uh interview but let's just say where i was shopping

00:23:16.710 --> 00:23:19.700
for the stuff that i needed It was such a big

00:23:19.700 --> 00:23:22.900
store, but everything was just crammed together

00:23:22.900 --> 00:23:25.119
because they were fitting a lot of things in.

00:23:25.359 --> 00:23:28.119
And I felt like I was going to hyperventilate

00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:30.940
just because I was like, where do I start in

00:23:30.940 --> 00:23:33.779
this store? Where the hell do I find this? I

00:23:33.779 --> 00:23:38.460
mean, it was easy. Everything was all labeled

00:23:38.460 --> 00:23:40.779
and everything. But I was like, where do I even

00:23:40.779 --> 00:23:42.579
start finding this stuff? And it's like, I'm

00:23:42.579 --> 00:23:45.660
kind of like everything just crammed in at me.

00:23:45.700 --> 00:23:49.700
I was like, here, get this. And you go over this

00:23:49.700 --> 00:23:51.420
aisle, and you go over this aisle, and you go

00:23:51.420 --> 00:23:53.420
over this, and this, and this. And it's like,

00:23:53.480 --> 00:23:55.539
holy crap, at least I can find stuff in my grocery

00:23:55.539 --> 00:23:57.680
store. And like, that's not overwhelming, but

00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:00.359
this is just like everything at you. Like, here,

00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:03.859
here's this. And then like, and there's a, and

00:24:03.859 --> 00:24:06.700
what I was not used to is that help was everywhere

00:24:06.700 --> 00:24:09.180
in this store. And it's like, did I enter the

00:24:09.180 --> 00:24:11.519
Twilight Zone? And it's like, I'm grateful that

00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:13.119
Father helped, but it's like, everybody's so

00:24:13.119 --> 00:24:17.279
gosh darn jolly. The stores I go to, everybody's

00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:19.529
just like, What the hell, get in and get out.

00:24:20.710 --> 00:24:24.250
Yeah, and, you know, I've got experience, I've

00:24:24.250 --> 00:24:27.990
done my qualification in like shop store and

00:24:27.990 --> 00:24:30.509
layouts of shops and everything else. And that

00:24:30.509 --> 00:24:33.730
real two meter of nothingness normally when you

00:24:33.730 --> 00:24:35.990
go into a store so you can get your bearings

00:24:35.990 --> 00:24:37.890
is also something we've brought into the home.

00:24:38.210 --> 00:24:40.450
You know, we don't want to overload ourselves

00:24:40.450 --> 00:24:43.029
when we get straight through the door, you know.

00:24:44.230 --> 00:24:47.549
But yeah, you're right. Wow. And loads of people

00:24:47.549 --> 00:24:50.069
asking if you need help before you even know

00:24:50.069 --> 00:24:55.390
where you are. It's crazy. I'm not used to it

00:24:55.390 --> 00:24:58.289
because usually if I go to Best Buy, I'm like,

00:24:58.369 --> 00:25:00.869
now where's the person I need to find to help

00:25:00.869 --> 00:25:05.750
me with this? This store, I just go in and it's

00:25:05.750 --> 00:25:08.549
like, hey, can I help you with anything? And

00:25:08.549 --> 00:25:12.890
I was like, already? Yes, can you point me to

00:25:12.890 --> 00:25:17.210
the nearest place for this product and this and

00:25:17.210 --> 00:25:20.410
this and this? No, no, yeah. Instead of pointing,

00:25:20.589 --> 00:25:27.569
you come along with me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I know.

00:25:28.829 --> 00:25:34.549
I wanted to bring up that the launch of the book

00:25:34.549 --> 00:25:37.859
actually is on the 2nd of January. So it's on

00:25:37.859 --> 00:25:39.980
pre -order on Member Vault. I'll give you the

00:25:39.980 --> 00:25:43.200
link, actually, to put in for $9 .99. And loads

00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:46.720
of people have signed up already. And then we're

00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:50.500
doing a 16 -month marketing campaign, actually.

00:25:50.740 --> 00:25:53.099
So four months for English. Then we're going

00:25:53.099 --> 00:25:57.119
to Spanish. Then we're going to German. And then

00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:01.619
we're finishing off with Italian. And that's

00:26:01.619 --> 00:26:04.200
just, you know, a lot of people think autism,

00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:09.680
ADHD. Yeah, and that's kind of a deficit. It's

00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:11.700
not in particular areas. I'm sure you would agree.

00:26:11.900 --> 00:26:14.720
We're very, very skilled in certain areas, aren't

00:26:14.720 --> 00:26:18.440
we? But languages, we've got four between us.

00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:22.839
So we're actually going to bring it out in four

00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:25.000
languages. That's going to be the hardest but

00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:27.599
also the most fun, I think. I would also say

00:26:27.599 --> 00:26:31.880
social cues can be still challenging to me, even

00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:35.799
though I have gone to... be a lot better with

00:26:35.799 --> 00:26:41.859
that. I've always told my friends or even new

00:26:41.859 --> 00:26:45.000
people that I meet, it's like, if I say anything

00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:47.920
that you don't like, please let me know. And

00:26:47.920 --> 00:26:51.140
it's like, and we can learn together because

00:26:51.140 --> 00:26:54.319
it's like, I can't read minds. It's like, sometimes

00:26:54.319 --> 00:26:59.079
I get very frustrated with my mom or my dad.

00:26:59.660 --> 00:27:01.980
It's like, well, can't you tell I'm angry? It's

00:27:01.980 --> 00:27:05.250
like, No, I thought it was you just being your

00:27:05.250 --> 00:27:11.529
regular self, or sometimes my mom seems to make

00:27:11.529 --> 00:27:14.210
me guess at what she's feeling, and you're like,

00:27:14.410 --> 00:27:18.349
just give me a cheat sheet, why don't you? Yeah,

00:27:18.390 --> 00:27:22.650
I get that. I've spoken loads of times about

00:27:22.650 --> 00:27:25.829
being around four people if I'm the fourth, and

00:27:25.829 --> 00:27:28.670
not understanding it as well. But for the book,

00:27:28.710 --> 00:27:30.970
and I can't tell everyone everything, but...

00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:34.299
we've actually incorporated this aspect like

00:27:34.299 --> 00:27:41.880
hugely into the house um and i'm you know people

00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:43.539
are going to be calmer than they've ever been

00:27:43.539 --> 00:27:47.759
before and i i think you know having autism and

00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:50.220
adhd i think we can be the best to do that so

00:27:50.220 --> 00:27:52.859
yeah definitely get a get a copy when it's out

00:27:52.859 --> 00:27:57.019
jimmy and um and and just see the it's a book

00:27:57.019 --> 00:28:00.359
for Every person, whether you've got a flat or

00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:05.220
mansion or it's just super principles that everyone

00:28:05.220 --> 00:28:08.220
can take regardless of their budget and just

00:28:08.220 --> 00:28:11.059
implement in their home. It's going to be a real

00:28:11.059 --> 00:28:14.079
game changer. I'm really looking forward to just

00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:16.480
calming down people's lives as much as possible,

00:28:16.519 --> 00:28:20.559
including yourself as well. I definitely need

00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:24.680
a little bit of calm because the last two weeks

00:28:24.680 --> 00:28:27.920
have just been, I feel like been a blur. And

00:28:27.920 --> 00:28:31.119
my brain would just been racing everywhere, going

00:28:31.119 --> 00:28:35.720
here, going there. And I noticed after a while,

00:28:35.819 --> 00:28:41.579
my brain was not ever just present. And so recently

00:28:41.579 --> 00:28:46.099
I had someone on my podcast. Can't say the name

00:28:46.099 --> 00:28:50.319
yet because it's not out yet. But this person

00:28:50.319 --> 00:28:54.059
came on, talked about breath work. I never heard

00:28:54.059 --> 00:28:58.680
of it until he talked about it. And it's different

00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:03.099
from meditation. Again, I'm not going to get

00:29:03.099 --> 00:29:09.579
all into it because he did. And so I've basically

00:29:09.579 --> 00:29:11.980
been doing a lot of deep breathing exercises

00:29:11.980 --> 00:29:16.519
too. And my brain's been feeling a lot calmer

00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:20.960
and feeling a lot more focused. I've been sleeping

00:29:20.960 --> 00:29:25.759
better. My mind's been more at ease. I was like,

00:29:25.859 --> 00:29:29.970
oh. I wish I hadn't taken it on sooner. Yeah.

00:29:30.130 --> 00:29:34.430
It was like three months ago. Were you calming

00:29:34.430 --> 00:29:39.029
down your vagal nerve? That comes in as well.

00:29:39.269 --> 00:29:42.430
Yeah, I think so. Because once we've calmed the

00:29:42.430 --> 00:29:48.569
vagal nerve down, it's amazing. Really, when

00:29:48.569 --> 00:29:51.210
we understand how to do that. Yeah, breath work

00:29:51.210 --> 00:29:56.460
is amazing. Yeah. It's so simple. I was like,

00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:00.700
wow, this feels really, really good. I was like,

00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:04.319
I wish I had this person a lot sooner. It just

00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:06.819
happened. Both of our schedules were just all

00:30:06.819 --> 00:30:09.859
swamped. And then I was like, it feels really

00:30:09.859 --> 00:30:13.920
good to not just to be centered versus 50 steps

00:30:13.920 --> 00:30:17.299
ahead, 50 steps behind, 50 steps to the side.

00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:23.630
I'm like, holy crap, where do I begin? Stay with

00:30:23.630 --> 00:30:27.170
us. We'll be right back. Did you know Crazy Fitness

going to get the, you know, ask particular guests

00:31:37.980 --> 00:31:40.619
when they've used certain quotes on the podcast,

00:31:40.900 --> 00:31:43.119
whether I can actually put them in the book as

00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:46.599
well. I spoke to Jenny Ann about breath work.

00:31:46.660 --> 00:31:50.259
I spoke to Jason Johns from the lives. headquarters

00:31:50.259 --> 00:31:53.480

00:31:53.480 --> 00:31:55.900

um and and jimmy you've been on twice it's been

00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:04.180
brilliant and my mom's willing to come back on

00:32:04.180 --> 00:32:07.000
yeah i know you want to come on for the third

00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:11.960
time that's brilliant hey you know i have many

00:32:11.960 --> 00:32:14.500
things i've been doing yeah we've got to do that

00:32:14.500 --> 00:32:17.859
we've got to oh my god I can say it now, but

00:32:17.859 --> 00:32:20.180
honestly, the last version that we did, I had

00:32:20.180 --> 00:32:22.859
to edit that so heavily. We were having such

00:32:22.859 --> 00:32:27.339
a laugh, but also we took it really to the limit

00:32:27.339 --> 00:32:30.839
on what we can do for podcasting, what we can

00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:35.160
say. But it's brilliant, and the downloads are

00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:37.980
really high. So, yeah, thank you. I mean, thank

00:32:37.980 --> 00:32:41.440
you for bringing over, you know, autism. It's

00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:44.319
wonderful when I've got the three different aspects.

00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:47.339
podcast. So yeah, thank you, Jimmy. It's brilliant.

00:32:47.740 --> 00:32:51.819
Anytime. I'm around, except for the next two

00:32:51.819 --> 00:33:06.140
weeks. So if you had to sum up, what do you hope

00:33:06.140 --> 00:33:09.420
for this book to do to help people besides calming

00:33:09.420 --> 00:33:12.839
their minds and everything else in their life?

00:33:13.180 --> 00:33:17.559
Okay, so A few years ago, it was really just

00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:21.099
singular people just having an ADHD diagnosis

00:33:21.099 --> 00:33:24.500
like I did. And then our world changes and we

00:33:24.500 --> 00:33:26.799
get used to that. And then the autism as well,

00:33:26.839 --> 00:33:29.140
that's coming out. So late diagnosis of both,

00:33:29.240 --> 00:33:33.200
really, and people's experiences of that. But

00:33:33.200 --> 00:33:38.700
now it is really just noticing that whole families

00:33:38.700 --> 00:33:43.980
are neurodivergent. actually, and just catering

00:33:43.980 --> 00:33:48.720
to their needs. It isn't just calming them down.

00:33:48.920 --> 00:33:51.519
You know, from the second chapter of the 13 -Hour

00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:54.200
Life Coach book that I wrote, it was really the

00:33:54.200 --> 00:33:56.559
process of getting up in the morning, you know,

00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:59.299
so starting with meditation, for example. You

00:33:59.299 --> 00:34:01.500
don't have to do it. It's just an option that

00:34:01.500 --> 00:34:05.160
I put in there. And just, you know, what is the

00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:09.480
routine of getting your ADHD autistic kids up,

00:34:09.559 --> 00:34:14.630
you know? um giving them good communication skills

00:34:14.630 --> 00:34:16.630
you know we're going to eat now you know if they're

00:34:16.630 --> 00:34:21.710
very young um having like clear surfaces so something

00:34:21.710 --> 00:34:24.389
that's not going to overload them packing the

00:34:24.389 --> 00:34:27.949
bags for school um and making making this kind

00:34:27.949 --> 00:34:31.070
of every day a bit of a more comfortable journey

00:34:31.070 --> 00:34:34.170
you know to get out the door or dad to go out

00:34:34.170 --> 00:34:37.349
to work You know, he's got autism. How can we

00:34:37.349 --> 00:34:41.550
do that? So it's a lot of life going on within

00:34:41.550 --> 00:34:45.429
that home that I just want, that obviously I've

00:34:45.429 --> 00:34:48.590
got the knowledge to implement now with the skills

00:34:48.590 --> 00:34:51.349
of Alina Gaida, who's absolutely fantastic in

00:34:51.349 --> 00:34:54.610
interior design. So my last three questions for

00:34:54.610 --> 00:34:58.610
you, where is the book available? And then my

00:34:58.610 --> 00:35:03.130
other, first let me know about that. And then

00:35:03.130 --> 00:35:06.440
I'll tell you the rest too. So the book is available

00:35:06.440 --> 00:35:12.380
on Member Vault, just on Member Vault. It's absolutely,

00:35:12.639 --> 00:35:17.079
you can do everything with Member Vault. So it's

00:35:17.079 --> 00:35:20.800
available on there for $9 .99 pre -order. And

00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:23.739
it's on pre -order because we've got four languages

00:35:23.739 --> 00:35:27.539
coming out of the book. And we just need to set

00:35:27.539 --> 00:35:30.039
it all up like that before the release date.

00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:33.900
So the English version, 2nd of January. And I'm

00:35:33.900 --> 00:35:37.559
also doing an audio version of the book as well,

00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:41.360
which I know sounds a bit strange, but we're

00:35:41.360 --> 00:35:45.179
very skilled with ADHD, autism, that I can actually

00:35:45.179 --> 00:35:47.920
bring it out on an audio book. So when you're

00:35:47.920 --> 00:35:50.099
traveling, you can listen to it and get the real

00:35:50.099 --> 00:35:52.599
concept without looking at the book as well.

00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:54.559
So there's these two options that are coming

00:35:54.559 --> 00:35:58.079
out. And my next question for you is, who's your

00:35:58.079 --> 00:36:00.519
favorite podcaster and why? And feel free not

00:36:00.519 --> 00:36:06.679
to say me. My favorite podcaster is one of the

00:36:06.679 --> 00:36:10.239
original podcasters, actually, of all time. Can't

00:36:10.239 --> 00:36:12.320
remember his first name, but his last name is

00:36:12.320 --> 00:36:19.019
Flynn. And he started in about 2007. And I learned

00:36:19.019 --> 00:36:22.000
so much about it. You know, people wanting to

00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:25.559
be podcast guests, but writing, hey, you know,

00:36:25.559 --> 00:36:28.860
a no name and everything else. And I learned

00:36:28.860 --> 00:36:34.900
a lot of good communication from that. how much

00:36:34.900 --> 00:36:37.619
he, you know, he's written a couple of books

00:36:37.619 --> 00:36:40.639
about podcasting as well. He's been a mentor

00:36:40.639 --> 00:36:42.539
of mine and I do look back and see what he's

00:36:42.539 --> 00:36:45.659
doing. So Flynn is his surname. I can't remember

00:36:45.659 --> 00:36:49.300
his first name. Patrick Flynn. Sorry? Patrick

00:36:49.300 --> 00:36:52.059
Flynn. I think it's Patrick. He's got millions

00:36:52.059 --> 00:36:56.320
of downloads. He's a really good source of...

00:36:56.590 --> 00:36:59.809
podcast information as well. So a wonderful guest.

00:36:59.949 --> 00:37:03.929
His name is Pat Flynn. Oh, Pat Flynn. Pat Flynn,

00:37:04.030 --> 00:37:08.809
that's it. He's got the whole lot. Really good

00:37:08.809 --> 00:37:12.730
communication style, editing, everything that

00:37:12.730 --> 00:37:15.190
you'd ever need for podcasting. So he's my favourite

00:37:15.190 --> 00:37:18.329
podcaster. He said to me, right? And of course

00:37:18.329 --> 00:37:22.119
you, Jimmy. If not, I'll just throw you off the

00:37:22.119 --> 00:37:26.340
show right now. I'm kidding. You've published

00:37:26.340 --> 00:37:28.639
quite a few podcasts, haven't you now, actually?

00:37:28.659 --> 00:37:33.659
Yeah, I'm currently at, as of right now, would

00:37:33.659 --> 00:37:40.460
be 84, almost 84. I think it was a little over

00:37:40.460 --> 00:37:43.219
100. With how many? 50 ,000 downloads, isn't

00:37:43.219 --> 00:37:46.019
it? That's a lot more than... No, my downloads

00:37:46.019 --> 00:37:50.769
is like a total of 3 ,500. Okay. My podcast is

00:37:50.769 --> 00:37:58.889
almost at 84 total episodes. Oh, wow. Yeah. I

00:37:58.889 --> 00:38:01.690
mean, on my side, it's been, this is the third

00:38:01.690 --> 00:38:06.070
relaunch, isn't it? You know? Close to 70 ,000

00:38:06.070 --> 00:38:10.409
downloads. Jeez. And 170 episodes in total with

00:38:10.409 --> 00:38:13.889
the solo episodes. And that is without Wi -Fi.

00:38:14.929 --> 00:38:19.119
That's amazing. How do you do it? a lot of patience,

00:38:19.260 --> 00:38:26.280
a lot of sport. That does not describe who I

00:38:26.280 --> 00:38:30.519
am. But you're the fitness guy. I don't have

00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:35.300
any patience. If my internet goes down, I'm calling

00:38:35.300 --> 00:38:38.719
people left and right, and it's like, you better

00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:41.820
put it back on, or I'm dropping the hell out

00:38:41.820 --> 00:38:44.340
of you, and I'm going to go dig up the wire and

00:38:44.340 --> 00:38:50.860
cut it. Yeah. My parents were like, you won't

00:38:50.860 --> 00:38:58.840
do that. I was like, I can't say yes or no. I

00:38:58.840 --> 00:39:03.179
can't confirm or deny. My last question for you

00:39:03.179 --> 00:39:06.440
is, Where can people follow you, find you, learn

00:39:06.440 --> 00:39:08.480
more about who you are and what you do, and where

00:39:08.480 --> 00:39:10.960
can people find your podcast and learn more about

00:39:10.960 --> 00:39:13.539
your podcast? And quick, you've got four minutes.

00:39:14.179 --> 00:39:18.239
All right, cool. So LinkedIn, I'm quite active,

00:39:18.280 --> 00:39:20.320
actually, with a post there. To be honest, I've

00:39:20.320 --> 00:39:24.239
got a newsletter and podcasting. So on the show

00:39:24.239 --> 00:39:27.480
notes, showcase notes there. I'm on Spotify,

00:39:27.960 --> 00:39:32.000
which is okay. But I'll be moving over to a private

00:39:32.000 --> 00:39:35.659
podcast soon called Hello Audio, which is fantastic.

00:39:35.820 --> 00:39:38.280
I want to give out a big shout out to Mike Roberts,

00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:40.739
who's been supporting me in so many different

00:39:40.739 --> 00:39:42.659
ways for the podcast. And so thank you, Mike.

00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:48.480
Yeah. Member Vault as well for the book. Patreon.

00:39:48.860 --> 00:39:52.420
So Member Vault for the Neurodivergence and Auto

00:39:52.420 --> 00:39:57.469
HD book. I'll send you the link for $9 .99. On

00:39:57.469 --> 00:40:00.769
Patreon, I've got the audio book of the 13 -Hour

00:40:00.769 --> 00:40:04.289
Life Coach book. And the 13 -Hour Life Coach

00:40:04.289 --> 00:40:06.349
book is on lula .com. So that's where you can

00:40:06.349 --> 00:40:10.409
find me. Awesome. And that was what I was saying.

00:40:10.469 --> 00:40:13.650
You have four minutes to speak as the Zoom timer.

00:40:14.349 --> 00:40:18.469
It's counting down quickly, Dom. But thank you

00:40:18.469 --> 00:40:21.130
for being on the show. And I'll leave all the

00:40:21.130 --> 00:40:26.090
links in the show notes. And if you, anytime

00:40:26.090 --> 00:40:29.309
you want to be, Come back on the show, hop on,

00:40:29.409 --> 00:40:33.289
and we'll do it. And in the meantime, everybody,

00:40:33.409 --> 00:40:37.010
that's all that we have for today. And in the

00:40:37.010 --> 00:40:40.369
meantime, stay healthy, stay safe, and stay motivated.

00:40:40.630 --> 00:40:44.050
And I wish I had my other stuff back. Damn you,

00:40:44.070 --> 00:40:48.489
Zoom. But, you know, screw internet. Across the

00:40:48.489 --> 00:40:52.989
whole world, apparently. But that's, well, that's

00:40:52.989 --> 00:40:55.250
a cursing and a bless at the same time, I guess.

00:40:55.769 --> 00:40:59.030
I think I got that from a Disney movie. Yikes.

00:40:59.150 --> 00:41:02.409
I'm kidding. But anyway, in the meantime, stay

00:41:02.409 --> 00:41:05.710
healthy, stay safe, and stay motivated. And I'll

00:41:05.710 --> 00:41:10.750
be back on my original platform in the next interview.

00:41:12.090 --> 00:41:16.929
Okay, I'm bashing Zoom. Sorry, Zoom. But stay

00:41:16.929 --> 00:41:23.039
motivated. Peace. Thanks for tuning into Crazy

00:41:49.579 --> 00:41:58.960
out the latest blog posts. Hydroflask is the

00:41:58.960 --> 00:42:02.519
best water bottle in my opinion because it keeps

00:42:02.519 --> 00:42:05.400
my water nice and cold and refreshing throughout

00:42:05.400 --> 00:42:08.260
the day. And yes, I do drink a lot of water throughout

00:42:08.260 --> 00:42:12.019
the day, so even though it stays colder for longer,

00:42:12.219 --> 00:42:18.340
I still like having a reusable water bottle like

00:42:18.340 --> 00:42:22.489
Hydroflask. because it just sits on my desk,

00:42:22.570 --> 00:42:27.630
and it just sits on my desk and reminds me, hey,

00:42:27.829 --> 00:42:32.030
you've got to drink water. And Hydro Flask, it

00:42:32.030 --> 00:42:35.530
keeps it cold longer, which makes me want to

00:42:35.530 --> 00:42:37.610
drink more water throughout the day, because,

00:42:37.610 --> 00:42:40.869
you know, there's nothing worse than drinking

00:42:40.869 --> 00:42:46.780
warm water. Go to hydroflask .com. And use the

00:42:46.780 --> 00:42:50.320
link in the show notes. And yes, I do get a small

00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:55.820
commission from Hydroflask, which also helps

00:42:55.820 --> 00:42:58.860
support the show. So tell them I sent you. Use

00:42:58.860 --> 00:43:03.239
