• 0:13
  SPEAKER_00: A world made of delicious,
• 0:15
  SPEAKER_00: sparkly,

  SPEAKER_00: nut butter volcanoes and an adorable disco ball of self-reflection is whirling
• 0:21
  SPEAKER_00: around in her transforming convertible.
• 0:24
  SPEAKER_00: Thanks for joining me in my 23rd episode,
• 0:27
  SPEAKER_00: which is one of my lucky numbers,
• 0:29
  SPEAKER_00: where I will be sharing my answer to last week's question,
• 0:32
  SPEAKER_00: a note on target audiences and how it relates to our self friendship,
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: a new affirmation,
• 0:39
  SPEAKER_00: how we can take responsibility to a fault.
• 0:42
  SPEAKER_00: a word replacement,
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_00: reading people and situations,
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_00: a healthy reminder about focus,
• 0:48
  SPEAKER_00: Robert Sapolsky's theory of free will and self-friendship,
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_00: a perspective dance,
• 0:53
  SPEAKER_00: a note on oscillating,
• 0:55
  SPEAKER_00: another new affirmation,
• 0:57
  SPEAKER_00: brain clogged,
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_00: a party of one,
• 1:00
  SPEAKER_00: and a brand new question for all of us to self-reflect,
• 1:03
  SPEAKER_00: self-connect,
• 1:04
  SPEAKER_00: and email me,
• 1:05
  SPEAKER_00: if you desire,
• 1:06
  SPEAKER_00: selffriendshippodcast at gmail.com.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_00: All right,
• 1:09
  SPEAKER_00: my answer to last week's question,
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_00: which was,
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_00: when have you felt angry with yourself and what did you do about it?
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: I recently felt angry with myself when I noticed the early stages of a pattern
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_00: forming and I couldn't quite figure out my exact role in the dynamic.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_00: I was proud of myself for catching the pattern and still angry with myself for
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_00: indulging in the pattern at all.
• 1:32
  SPEAKER_00: I initially tried to identify what role I was playing or what elements I could be
• 1:36
  SPEAKER_00: projecting and what I can do to not play this out any further.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: So many questions and nuances to consider.
• 1:45
  SPEAKER_00: There were about two days after recognizing the pattern where I was hyper-focused
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_00: on the pattern existing and also super anxious for one of those days as I worked
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: toward identifying my next action so that it would be different from whatever I had
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_00: previously done to avoid repeating the pattern again.
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_00: So I took a big step back and focused on letting the entire situation go.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_00: Once I did that,
• 2:10
  SPEAKER_00: I created the space and time for myself to actually process as my current self,
• 2:16
  SPEAKER_00: as opposed to the former version of myself,
• 2:19
  SPEAKER_00: who is the one who repeats this pattern and the person who is sitting with anxiety
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: surrounding the situation.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: After two weeks away from the situation,
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_00: I knew what I needed to do because my little adorable intuition was telling me what
• 2:32
  SPEAKER_00: to do and the universe would not let me move forward without doing what I needed to do.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: So I did it.
• 2:38
  SPEAKER_00: I hope this is helpful to at least one of you listening.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_00: My intention here is to share an objective overview of this personal story so that
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_00: you can relate to it yourself and whatever context suits you and your life.
• 2:51
  SPEAKER_00: Feel free to email me at selffriendshippodcast at gmail.com.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_00: Next, a note on target audiences and how it relates to our self-friendship.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_00: We can't get the audience we want without nurturing the one we have.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_00: As it relates to our self-friendship in our personal life and theoretically our self-development,
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_00: we cannot attract the type of people we want without nurturing ourselves and the
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_00: relationships that we currently have.
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_00: And sometimes the best way to nurture a relationship is to end it.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_00: Likewise, we cannot ignore situations or people in our lives just because we don't want them there.
• 3:33
  SPEAKER_00: Well, we can, but not if we want to move forward and develop.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_00: We need to acknowledge them the same way we need to acknowledge our feelings so
• 3:41
  SPEAKER_00: that the feelings can pass through us.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_00: If we don't, they become suppressed feelings.
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_00: It would be like cultivating suppressed relationships.
• 3:50
  SPEAKER_00: I just made that up.
• 3:51
  SPEAKER_00: Suppressed relationships.
• 3:53
  SPEAKER_00: I love that concept.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_00: I will write a little self-friendship article on that one.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: Anyway, to reach our target, we need to nurture our current audience and the current people in our life.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_00: I also feel inclined to share that for some reason,
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_00: the concept of target audiences doesn't exactly sit well with me.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_00: For me, for Planet Butter, I genuinely want everyone on board.
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_00: I'm solving world peace.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_00: It takes the entire population to do what the universe has gifted me with sharing self-friendship.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_00: I am so silliest.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_00: That word means playful with sincere intent.
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_00: It's a word from Blizzard's dictionary.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_00: Peep the Planet Butter Substack publication for more on that.
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_00: Anyway,
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_00: on that note,
• 4:41
  SPEAKER_00: a lot of people have asked me how I've gotten the sudden influx of my organic followers,
• 4:46
  SPEAKER_00: advocates as I see them.
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_00: I've got four truths for you guys.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: One, my how will never ever be your how because everyone's how is different.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_00: Number two, focus on your quote unquote what.
• 5:05
  SPEAKER_00: Your how will unfold and you will attract your audience.
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_00: Number three.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_00: If you chase trying to understand an ever-changing algorithm,
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_00: that is a ton of energy you could be using to focus on developing yourself and
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_00: therefore your content.
• 5:23
  SPEAKER_00: Number four.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: When you came knocking, I answered.
• 5:27
  SPEAKER_00: Full circle.
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_00: I'm nurturing the audience I have and more will continue to show up.
• 5:33
  SPEAKER_00: I'll see you in the comments.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_00: Now a new affirmation.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: I am vulnerable, so I open myself to receiving what allows me to feel fulfilled.
• 5:43
  SPEAKER_00: I am vulnerable, so I open myself to receiving what allows me to feel fulfilled.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_00: Doesn't that feel good?
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_00: How we can take responsibility to a fault.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_00: As imperative as it is to take responsibility for ourselves in our self-friendship practice,
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_00: we also have to keep in mind that taking responsibility does not equate to our fault.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_00: In any and every context,
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_00: the other person and people involved are part of the equation and their
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_00: responsibility is equally important.
• 6:17
  SPEAKER_00: If we look too much into our level of responsibility,
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_00: that is when we might take responsibility to a fault.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_00: It shifts from taking responsibility to overthinking and a high risk of hyper self-criticism.
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_00: Think about that.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_00: Email me with any questions.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_00: selffriendshippodcast at gmail.com Now, a fun, as usual, word replacement.
• 6:39
  SPEAKER_00: You're not bored.
• 6:41
  SPEAKER_00: You're exploring your mind.
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_00: Now,
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_00: this one can be tricky because I do feel oftentimes people might claim boredom,
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_00: which automatically causes their focus to be on this perceived void of not knowing
• 6:53
  SPEAKER_00: what to do with themselves.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_00: Whereas if we could take a step back from this perception and shift over to the
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_00: realization that there is a whole human that we are with at all.
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_00: all times, who we can explore.
• 7:09
  SPEAKER_00: Explore your mind,
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_00: have a chat with yourself,
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: learn about yourself,
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_00: embrace,
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_00: understand,
• 7:16
  SPEAKER_00: and enjoy yourself.
• 7:17
  SPEAKER_00: Self-friendship.
• 7:20
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, reading people and situations.
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_00: The more we practice self-friendship, the more self-aware we become.
• 7:28
  SPEAKER_00: When we are self-aware,
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_00: we also become more aware of those we surround ourselves with because we learn what
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_00: feels right for us in our body and the types of people that resonate with us and
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_00: those who don't.
• 7:41
  SPEAKER_00: There's a healthy degree of giving people chances and then there's trusting our own
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_00: ability to understand people and how they're choosing to show up in any given
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_00: moment and what that tells us about them.
• 7:52
  SPEAKER_00: And then whether or not we want to continue to surround ourselves with that person.
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_00: Self-trust.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_00: Now a healthy reminder about focus.
• 8:02
  SPEAKER_00: What we focus on expands.
• 8:04
  SPEAKER_00: Easy to say,
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_00: sometimes difficult to be conscious of,
• 8:07
  SPEAKER_00: which is why I thought I would offer this healthy reminder.
• 8:10
  SPEAKER_00: So a simple activity as a way to remember this and hopefully take with you to
• 8:15
  SPEAKER_00: consider in all aspects of life.
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_00: At night, look up at the sky super quickly and then look back down.
• 8:22
  SPEAKER_00: How many stars did you see?
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_00: Well, it depends where you are, but that doesn't matter.
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_00: Regardless of your answer to that, look back up at the sky and stare at it for 30 seconds.
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_00: You will start to notice more and more stars because what you focus on expands.
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_00: Ta-da!
• 8:44
  SPEAKER_00: I actually got that one from a really long time ago.
• 8:47
  SPEAKER_00: I just remembered it the other day.
• 8:49
  SPEAKER_00: A really long time ago, I was staring at the sky with my friend Heather Thrills.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_00: Check her out.
• 8:53
  SPEAKER_00: The number one yoga and boxing instructor in the world and is based in Los Angeles, California.
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_00: I was staring at the stars and I said,
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_00: wow,
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_00: it's so cool how the longer you stare at the sky,
• 9:02
  SPEAKER_00: the more stars appear.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_00: And she immediately mirrors it back to me as what you focus on expands.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_00: Boom.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_00: Just like that.
• 9:11
  SPEAKER_00: So now I remembered it this week and shared it with you.
• 9:13
  SPEAKER_00: You're welcome.
• 9:17
  SPEAKER_00: Moving on.
• 9:18
  SPEAKER_00: Robert Sapolsky's theory of free will and self-friendship.
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_00: A comment I received on one of my Instagram reels this week mentioned Robert
• 9:26
  SPEAKER_00: Sapolsky's theory of free will.
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_00: I hadn't heard of that yet, so I looked into it briefly.
• 9:31
  SPEAKER_00: It seems his theory is that despite our environment,
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_00: genetic,
• 9:35
  SPEAKER_00: and neurobiological factors,
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_00: he believes humans do still have a sense of autonomy in decision-making.
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_00: My thoughts on this are in alignment with the sense of autonomy, despite these three factors.
• 9:50
  SPEAKER_00: And I do believe that the sense of autonomy he refers to varies per individual in
• 9:55
  SPEAKER_00: relation to an individual self-friendship practice.
• 9:58
  SPEAKER_00: Our ability and consistency in embracing, understanding, and enjoying ourselves.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: As I see it,
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_00: the stronger our ability to embrace,
• 10:07
  SPEAKER_00: understand,
• 10:07
  SPEAKER_00: and enjoy ourselves,
• 10:08
  SPEAKER_00: to practice self-friendship,
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_00: the greater our consciousness of the world around us and therefore a greater sense
• 10:15
  SPEAKER_00: of autonomy in decision-making and quote-unquote free will.
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_00: As without self-friendship, sure, there is autonomy in an individual's decision-making ability.
• 10:26
  SPEAKER_00: However,
• 10:27
  SPEAKER_00: the less conscious an individual is,
• 10:30
  SPEAKER_00: the less aware they are,
• 10:32
  SPEAKER_00: which implies without self-friendship,
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_00: their autonomy in decision-making is heavily influenced by whoever and whatever
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_00: they consume and choose to believe themselves.
• 10:43
  SPEAKER_00: as opposed to listening to ourselves or their selves and conducting our own or
• 10:49
  SPEAKER_00: their own critical thinking to make intentional decisions based on what we know or
• 10:55
  SPEAKER_00: they know to be true about our own life and the life we or they.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_00: Let me know if you've got any questions about that one.
• 11:02
  SPEAKER_00: Super dense, but honestly super simple.
• 11:05
  SPEAKER_00: Basically, the more aware you are, the stronger your autonomy.
• 11:08
  SPEAKER_00: The less aware you are,
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_00: the less strong your autonomy.
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_00: And unfortunately, the less aware you are, you don't even know that you're lacking autonomy.
• 11:15
  SPEAKER_00: Kind of crazy.
• 11:16
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 11:17
  SPEAKER_00: Perspective dance with me.
• 11:19
  SPEAKER_00: Similarly to the way we use the word competitive in sports, like competitive basketball.
• 11:25
  SPEAKER_00: Try putting the word playful before everything.
• 11:29
  SPEAKER_00: Like I play playful basketball.
• 11:32
  SPEAKER_00: I playfully surf, swim, yoga.
• 11:35
  SPEAKER_00: I play.
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_00: The word play is overused in relation to sports that we forget what play actually means.
• 11:41
  SPEAKER_00: At least I think so.
• 11:43
  SPEAKER_00: When we say we play a sport,
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_00: most of the time we mean it in the sense that we do the sport as in we are active
• 11:50
  SPEAKER_00: in this way.
• 11:52
  SPEAKER_00: It's not used to reference playfulness.
• 11:54
  SPEAKER_00: I'm suggesting we use it to reference actual playfulness.
• 11:58
  SPEAKER_00: Now a note on oscillating.
• 12:01
  SPEAKER_00: I've been thinking about this word a lot lately in relation to self-friendship.
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_00: And then I suddenly heard the term on an affirmation video I clicked on YouTube.
• 12:09
  SPEAKER_00: And then my first time going to this upstairs room above my kitchen,
• 12:13
  SPEAKER_00: I noticed it was written on the fan in there.
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_00: Crazy.
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_00: So it seems it's important that I share with you.
• 12:21
  SPEAKER_00: Oscillating means to go back and forth between two spaces.
• 12:25
  SPEAKER_00: As it relates to self-friendship, I see it as a necessity for our growth.
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_00: I have yet to truly find the words to convey this message,
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_00: so I might bring this up again in the future episode or on Planet Butter's
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_00: publication on the weekly self-friendship articles.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_00: For now, I know that the phrase...
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_00: X steps forward, X steps back.
• 12:46
  SPEAKER_00: So it's like three steps forward or yeah,
• 12:48
  SPEAKER_00: three steps forward,
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_00: five steps back or whatever it is,
• 12:51
  SPEAKER_00: is essentially oscillation.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_00: We need to go backwards in order to go forwards.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_00: Our first step of change is awareness that we want to make a change.
• 13:02
  SPEAKER_00: And then there are other layers of awareness after that.
• 13:06
  SPEAKER_00: It's a whole big ordeal.
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_00: Change is not easy.
• 13:09
  SPEAKER_00: It does not happen overnight because we are oscillating and then when something
• 13:14
  SPEAKER_00: finally clicks,
• 13:15
  SPEAKER_00: it does happen overnight.
• 13:17
  SPEAKER_00: The uni is funny like that.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_00: Great sense of humor.
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_00: Then you're oscillating pivots to a different area of your life once the click
• 13:26
  SPEAKER_00: happens because we're always a work in progress.
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_00: Keyword, progress.
• 13:31
  SPEAKER_00: This is also why I don't have 100% succinct clarity on communicating this.
• 13:35
  SPEAKER_00: I think I'm oscillating about this message.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_00: I thought it would be cool to share my thinking pattern surrounding this though
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_00: because it feels like a really dense topic and I figured I would take you on the
• 13:47
  SPEAKER_00: journey with me of my thoughts.
• 13:49
  SPEAKER_00: All right, stay tuned if you want to hear more on that at some point in the future.
• 13:54
  SPEAKER_00: Now, another new affirmation.
• 13:56
  SPEAKER_00: I release any preconceived notions that are subconsciously limiting my growth.
• 14:04
  SPEAKER_00: I release any preconceived notions that are subconsciously limiting my growth.
• 14:09
  SPEAKER_00: Hmm.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_00: Next, brain clog.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_00: I thought I'd share this in case it helps at least one of you.
• 14:20
  SPEAKER_00: Brain clog.
• 14:21
  SPEAKER_00: If I don't write or speak out loud my thoughts, my brain feels like it's clogged, like thought traffic.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_00: I just made that one up too.
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_00: So that's why I write and I talk so much that I turned it into my profession to avoid brain clog.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_00: And I just realized that it's even called brain clog when it happens because my
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_00: pens kept running out of ink recently and I just don't know what to do about it
• 14:45
  SPEAKER_00: because I just don't know why I finished them so quickly because I write so much.
• 14:49
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 14:49
  SPEAKER_00: Anyway,
• 14:50
  SPEAKER_00: thanks for listening to my podcast because this is me releasing my brain,
• 14:53
  SPEAKER_00: brain,
• 14:54
  SPEAKER_00: brain,
• 14:54
  SPEAKER_00: that's my sister's name,
• 14:55
  SPEAKER_00: brain clog.
• 14:58
  SPEAKER_00: And now, a party of one from this week.
• 15:01
  SPEAKER_00: As a loving reminder,
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_00: party of one means having fun with oneself for oneself,
• 15:07
  SPEAKER_00: as oneself,
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_00: anywhere,
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_00: everywhere,
• 15:10
  SPEAKER_00: no matter who is there.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_00: We become our party of one by consistently practicing self-friendship.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_00: Each episode,
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_00: I share little stories from my life that happened thanks to me showing up in the
• 15:20
  SPEAKER_00: world as my party of one.
• 15:23
  SPEAKER_00: This week, I showed up to improv the other day about two minutes past the scheduled start time.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_00: I asked the studio if class already started.
• 15:30
  SPEAKER_00: They said the host wasn't there yet and a lot of people were waiting upstairs actually.
• 15:34
  SPEAKER_00: Then they asked me if I would host for the day.
• 15:36
  SPEAKER_00: Mind you, I'm a voice actor, so I do have a decent amount of improv class experience, but not a ton.
• 15:42
  SPEAKER_00: And this was my first time doing improv at the studio.
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_00: So they didn't even know if I had experience.
• 15:48
  SPEAKER_00: All my improv experience is from how I approach life, which is entirely improvisation.
• 15:53
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm really good at life and especially being playful.
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_00: So that mixed with my voice acting background, I was all in.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_00: I go upstairs and announce to everyone I'm about to do some hosting improv because
• 16:05
  SPEAKER_00: I had no intentions of hosting improv tonight and I've never hosted before.
• 16:09
  SPEAKER_00: So I'm going to make this hosting up as we go.
• 16:13
  SPEAKER_00: As it turns out,
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_00: the host was there and he then told me that he is the host that has been hosting it
• 16:23
  SPEAKER_00: for years at the studio.
• 16:26
  SPEAKER_00: I very politely told him, well, they don't think you're here.
• 16:29
  SPEAKER_00: They literally asked me to host and didn't even charge me for coming to class
• 16:33
  SPEAKER_00: because I was suddenly hosting.
• 16:36
  SPEAKER_00: And then I asked, did you tell them you're here?
• 16:39
  SPEAKER_00: He said, well, I don't like to be like, oh, I'm the host.
• 16:43
  SPEAKER_00: And I was just extremely confused at that point because he had been hosting for years and...
• 16:48
  SPEAKER_00: One, they didn't recognize him.
• 16:50
  SPEAKER_00: And two, he didn't say anything.
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_00: And then three, he paid to take his own class.
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_00: And four, he didn't start class.
• 17:02
  SPEAKER_00: What?
• 17:03
  SPEAKER_00: So that was hilarious.
• 17:04
  SPEAKER_00: And then we carried on and class was incredibly fun.
• 17:07
  SPEAKER_00: And I was very proud of my performances and really enjoyed the people that I played with,
• 17:11
  SPEAKER_00: despite the very strange interaction at the start of class.
• 17:16
  SPEAKER_00: And that
• 17:17
  SPEAKER_00: is because I show up as my party of one.
• 17:21
  SPEAKER_00: Lastly, the question of the week.
