5-MINUTE FRIDAY: Who Would You Pay For An Intro To? · Hurdle with Emily Abbate

• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Hey, there's Emily a body here. You're listening to a
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: five minute of Friday from Hurdle. I subscribe to this newsletter.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: It's called Life's a Game. It's by a woman named Amanda.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I will link it in the show notes and at
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: the bottom of her newsletter. I was reading the ways
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: that she's hoping that her community will support her, and
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: one of them is through a platform that I had
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: never heard of, and it's called Intro. And I recognize
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: that this five minute Friday may sound like an ad
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: but I have never heard of Intro.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Like I said, I'm brand new to it.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Basically, the concept of it is that anyone anywhere can
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: book the world's quote unquote most in demand experts and
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: get advice over a video call. So essentially, you pay
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: whatever rate that they have established for fifteen minutes of
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: their time and you can literally calendar a zoom with
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: someone like Ali Web tomorrow. I'm really impressed with some
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: of the people they have on here. I'm talking like
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: aside from Ali founder of Reddit, co founder of Nextdoor,
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: co founder of Zillo, the former global CEO of Anthropology Group,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: the founder of Native Like, so many individuals are on
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: this platform. And it really has me thinking about two
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: things which I want to share with you this Friday. One,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: can you even imagine what you would do differently if
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: you came to the understanding that your time could be
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: valued up to four thousand dollars an hour? So these individuals,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: they're pricing their time fifteen minute blocks for between one
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: hundred and one thousand dollars for fifteen minutes. So if
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: your time was worth four thousand dollars an hour, what
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: would you be doing differently? Would you be treating yourself differently?
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Food for thought?
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: And then the other thing that I'm thinking of truly
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: is who would you book fifteen minutes with if everyone
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: in the world was on this platform and you in
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to learn from anyone. And I will say
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: this podcasting is so phenomenal because you have the opportunity
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: at your literal fingertips every day to learn from people.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: And what a gift that is.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: And how lucky am I that so many of these people,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: not necessarily that are on this website intro, but just
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: in general, are giving me their time so that I
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: can then share them with you. That's just a side note,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: But who would you book time with to learn from
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: is what I am curious to know, and seriously tag
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: me in your responses or just DM me. I am
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: all for conversation on this. I'm sure I'll post a
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: story to go along with this tomorrow so we can
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: open up some sort of a discussion. My mind is blown.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Really.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: The prompt for this week is what would you do
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: differently if you really valued your time? Like these individuals
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: are really valuing their time. And also, of note, we
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: have the opportunity to learn from anyone, so it doesn't
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: need to be someone that is the founder of Reddit
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: for you to learn from them. Right. I have the
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: opportunity to learn from my neighbor, just like I have
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to learn from my doorman. Just like I
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: have the opportunity to learn from Cat Schneider, who I
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: interviewed earlier for the show today. She's the founder of Ritual. Anyway,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: that's where my head's got this week. I've got fourteen
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: miles to run this morning. It feels like my first
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: true long long run of this training cycle, or something
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: like fifty two days out. So send me all the
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: good vibes, wish me all of the good luck. I
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: will accept your DMS, and now I will answer a
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: listener question. Hi, Emily, my name is Derek. I'm a
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: longtime listener of yours. I just want to call in
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: and ask how are you, like, seriously, how are you
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: doing mentally, physically, emotionally and through a lot over the
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: last two years.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: So I just want to check in and see how
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: you're doing. Thanks. Can we have a beat for how
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: sweet Derek is? I love this?
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: You know what, I feel really good this week, and
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: that's because I'm really prioritizing what works for me. If
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: you don't subscribe to the weekly hurdle I write on
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: this today, the link to do that is in the
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: show notes. It's the newsletter that comes out every single Friday,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: if you are not aware. And this week I did
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: something I don't usually do, and I invested in what
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: I'm putting into my body. Like, yes, I usually spend
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: money at Trader Joe's and I buy groceries, and I
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: cook and I do the best that I can. And
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I'm also often going out to dinner and spending all
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: the money and coffees and everything. And so this week
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: what I decided to do was I treated myself to
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: the Sakara Life signature meal program. I love Sacara's meals.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: This is not sponsored. They do not sponsor the show.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: I just feel really good when I know that I
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: can get up from my desk in the middle of
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the busy day and go grab remade meal for lunch,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: especially and also having it ready at the end of
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: the day. It's just one less thing I have to
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: worry about. And I love knowing that I'm putting whole
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: food into my body and really treating it with.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Love and respect, which I should be doing all the time.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: And so I feel good right now because I'm doing
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: something good for myself and that feels nice. I'm on
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: top of my training, which also feels nice. I am
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: supported and loved by my family and friends, many of
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: whom I've had the opportunity to see this week and
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: last week, and so I'm in a good spot.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: I'm excited to see my mom this weekend. Yeah.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: So thanks thanks for asking. I encourage you all ask
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: the people that you're seeing on the regular, how are
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: they doing really? On that note, make sure you're following
