Transcript
- 0:23Speaker 1: Hey, hey, Emily. Here you're listening to five minute Friday.
- 0:27Speaker 1: Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. I'm excited. I'm excited
- 0:31Speaker 1: because as you listen to this, if you listen to
- 0:34Speaker 1: it on Fridays, I know many of you love to
- 0:36Speaker 1: listen to it over the weekend.
- 0:38Speaker 2: But I am on my way to Chicago. Let's go.
- 0:43Speaker 1: I totally lost count of what marathon number this is
- 0:47Speaker 1: for me. I really thought it was sixteen, but it
- 0:49Speaker 1: might be fifteen. So if there's a discrepancy in there
- 0:52Speaker 1: somewhere from when I speak about this, please forgive me.
- 0:55Speaker 2: But I am. I'm in the excited phase, and I
- 0:59Speaker 2: got here earlier this week when someone said to me,
- 1:01Speaker 2: isn't it just as likely that Sunday could go better
- 1:04Speaker 2: than you? And vision?
- 1:06Speaker 1: I started in this place of there's no way lightning
- 1:09Speaker 1: is going to strike twice. I had such an amazing
- 1:12Speaker 1: experience in Chicago when I ran this marathon in twenty nineteen.
- 1:16Speaker 1: How would it ever happen again? And then after having
- 1:20Speaker 1: this conversation with a girlfriend, I totally stopped myself and
- 1:26Speaker 1: realized that I was not serving my best interest. And
- 1:32Speaker 1: then admittedly I started to get into this whole manifestation
- 1:36Speaker 1: mindset of what it is that I want on Sunday
- 1:40Speaker 1: and who is the woman that gets that thing. The
- 1:43Speaker 1: thing about manifestation is it's not just like you can
- 1:46Speaker 1: think this thing into existence and then it happens.
- 1:48Speaker 2: You have to take a line to action.
- 1:50Speaker 1: And so when I think about the woman that gets
- 1:52Speaker 1: what she wants on Sunday, which is to admittedly run
- 1:56Speaker 1: a certain time and also feel a certain way, I
- 1:59Speaker 1: to the path and get out of my own way
- 2:01Speaker 1: so that those things can happen. So what does this
- 2:03Speaker 1: look like in practice? It means talking to myself with kindness.
- 2:06Speaker 1: It means surrounding myself with people that make me feel
- 2:10Speaker 1: good as I am and lift me up. I could
- 2:13Speaker 1: not be more looking forward to spending time with people
- 2:17Speaker 1: that love me in my heart. I have so many
- 2:19Speaker 1: dear friends that are going to be in Chicago, and
- 2:21Speaker 1: it makes me so happy. It makes me always happy
- 2:24Speaker 1: to spend time with them. But to have these humans
- 2:28Speaker 1: in my sphere when I'm about to do something that
- 2:32Speaker 1: matters so much to me is just so It's such
- 2:35Speaker 1: a beautiful thing.
- 2:36Speaker 2: And so when we're.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Talking about aligned to action, I am doing the things
- 2:41Speaker 1: that someone that would garner that level of success that
- 2:44Speaker 1: I am seeking and the feeling that I'm seeking on
- 2:46Speaker 1: Sunday would do. I am positive. I'm not allowing limiting
- 2:50Speaker 1: beliefs to get in my way because I know that
- 2:54Speaker 1: limiting beliefs you can't think your way out of them.
- 2:58Speaker 1: They will be reflected in your reality, even if they're
- 3:01Speaker 1: a part of your subconscious. So I am then taking
- 3:05Speaker 1: into my own control, writing, journaling, talking myself into this
- 3:11Speaker 1: and stepping into the goodness that is This is.
- 3:14Speaker 2: Who I am.
- 3:15Speaker 1: I am someone that can exceed her own wildest dreams.
- 3:20Speaker 1: I am someone who can stand firm in the work
- 3:25Speaker 1: that she has put in. I am someone who knows
- 3:29Speaker 1: what it is that she is capable of and isn't
- 3:33Speaker 1: afraid of working hard for it.
- 3:36Speaker 2: Am I giving.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Myself my own pep talk? Absolutely, But I hope that
- 3:40Speaker 1: this is something that helps you too. Here I am
- 3:43Speaker 1: talking myself through my I am statements a tool that
- 3:46Speaker 1: I use time and time again to root in what
- 3:50Speaker 1: is fact and let any of that nervous energy or
- 3:54Speaker 1: anxiety that's got to go. And so here I am
- 3:59Speaker 1: I'm rambling. I'm manifesting a great day on Sunday. I'm
- 4:02Speaker 1: stepping into who I know that I am through aligned action,
- 4:06Speaker 1: I'm surrounding myself with people that lift me up.
- 4:10Speaker 2: And I I'm ready to rock.
- 4:14Speaker 1: I know that when I talk about manifestation, it really
- 4:17Speaker 1: does feels like something that is out of reach for
- 4:20Speaker 1: so many and I too have felt that way previously.
- 4:25Speaker 1: Like I said, but you don't know until you try.
- 4:29Speaker 1: And so why not me? Why not you? Why not
- 4:32Speaker 1: step into something that is great? Because each of us
- 4:36Speaker 1: deserves that. Yeah, So my question for you this week,
- 4:40Speaker 1: my listener question, what is it that you're after and
- 4:43Speaker 1: what aligned action can you take to become the person
- 4:48Speaker 1: that gets that thing? What is the aligned action that
- 4:52Speaker 1: you can take to step into exactly what it is
- 4:56Speaker 1: that you want and who it is that you want
- 4:59Speaker 1: to become. And now a listener question. Hey, Emily, my
- 5:04Speaker 1: boss is one of my favorite people on the planet.
- 5:06Speaker 1: How lucky am I to say that? And he is
- 5:08Speaker 1: running the NYC Marathon next month. It will be his third,
- 5:11Speaker 1: but his last one was about nine years ago. He's
- 5:13Speaker 1: had a couple injuries this training cycle, and he joke
- 5:16Speaker 1: said he's too old, he's forty nine. Anyway, I wanted
- 5:19Speaker 1: to put together a little good luck you killed it
- 5:21Speaker 1: marathon gift bag. I'm wondering if you had any post
- 5:24Speaker 1: marathon musts. I was thinking socks, bio freeze, maybe even
- 5:27Speaker 1: the fuel he likes for during the marathon. Open to ideas,
- 5:31Speaker 1: Thanks and good luck in Chicago, Maria.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Good question.
- 5:34Speaker 1: Okay, A few things that I am always looking for
- 5:37Speaker 1: after a marathon. One a good foot massage, and I
- 5:40Speaker 1: mean like a place to go to get one. So
- 5:43Speaker 1: if you feel comfortable spending that kind of money, maybe
- 5:46Speaker 1: a thirty or fifty dollars gift card for someone to
- 5:49Speaker 1: go get reflexology that is an amazing post marathon or
- 5:53Speaker 1: honestly for any active person, a great gift. The next
- 5:57Speaker 1: thing I would recommend is maybe like a nice can
- 6:00Speaker 1: and some bath salts. So they make candles now, I
- 6:03Speaker 1: got one as a gift last year that said, like,
- 6:05Speaker 1: you ran the marathon, so google marathon candles and you
- 6:09Speaker 1: might find like a cheeky one that makes a great gift.
- 6:12Speaker 1: And then along with that, epsom salt would be really good,
- 6:16Speaker 1: and of course that comes in so many great scents
- 6:19Speaker 1: and smells and whatnot. Then cozy socks, cozy sweats, even
- 6:24Speaker 1: like all of those things, think about your optimal day
- 6:27Speaker 1: of self care and what that involves. It's a good
- 6:29Speaker 1: gift for anyone at any time, but definitely after a marathon.
- 6:35Speaker 1: The last thing I'll say, if you know that they
- 6:37Speaker 1: have a favorite restaurant, perhaps it's always fun to celebrate
- 6:41Speaker 1: a big accomplishment, so a little gift card might be
- 6:44Speaker 1: the nice cherry on top of their recovery Sunday. I
- 6:48Speaker 1: hope this helps make sure you're following along with Hurdle
