  the

  soft
• 0:07
  girl
• 0:07
  era
• 0:08
  looking
• 0:08
  like
• 0:08
  being
• 0:09
  weighted
• 0:09
  on
• 0:09
  hand
• 0:10
  and
• 0:10
  foot.
• 0:11
  Floating
• 0:11
  through
• 0:12
  your
• 0:12
  days
• 0:12
  completely
• 0:13
  unbothered.
• 0:14
  Moving
• 0:14
  about
• 0:15
  freely
• 0:15
  whenever
• 0:16
  you
• 0:16
  feel
• 0:16
  like
• 0:17
  it.
• 0:17
  Not
• 0:17
  a
• 0:17
  single
• 0:18
  thing,
• 0:18
  demanding
• 0:19
  your
• 0:20
  attention.
• 0:21
  And
• 0:21
  if
• 0:22
  that
• 0:22
  version
• 0:23
  of
• 0:23
  soft
• 0:24
  feels
• 0:24
  so
• 0:25
  far
• 0:25
  from
• 0:25
  the
• 0:25
  life
• 0:26
  that
• 0:26
  you're
• 0:26
  actually
• 0:26
  living
• 0:27
  right
• 0:27
  now,
• 0:28
  that
• 0:28
  it
• 0:28
  almost
• 0:28
  makes
• 0:29
  you
• 0:29
  laugh.
• 0:30
  That's
• 0:30
  the
• 0:30
  gap
• 0:31
  we're
• 0:31
  closing.
• 0:32
  Soft
• 0:33
  does
• 0:33
  not
• 0:33
  mean
• 0:34
  the
• 0:34
  absence
• 0:35
  of
• 0:35
  ambition.
• 0:36
  It
• 0:36
  means
• 0:37
  ambition
• 0:37
  with
• 0:38
  intention
• 0:39
  behind
• 0:40
  it.
• 0:40
  You
• 0:40
  can
• 0:40
  have
• 0:41
  the
• 0:41
  peaceful
• 0:41
  mornings
• 0:42
  and
• 0:43
  the
• 0:43
  purpose-driven
• 0:44
  work,
• 0:44
  the
• 0:44
  boundaries,
• 0:45
  and
• 0:46
  the
• 0:46
  big
• 0:46
  dreams.
• 0:47
  The
• 0:47
  rest.
• 0:48
  And
• 0:49
  the
• 0:49
  results,
• 0:50
  the
• 0:50
  candles
• 0:51
  and
• 0:52
  the
• 0:52
  calling,
• 0:53
  all
• 0:53
  of
• 0:53
  it
• 0:53
  at
• 0:54
  the
• 0:54
  same
• 0:54
  time,
• 0:55
  you
• 0:55
  do
• 0:55
  not
• 0:56
  have
• 0:56
  to
• 0:56
  choose
• 0:56
  one
• 0:57
  and
• 0:57
  abandon
• 0:58
  the
• 0:58
  other,
• 0:59
  and
• 0:59
  you
• 0:59
  do
• 0:59
  not
• 1:00
  have
• 1:00
  to
• 1:00
  wait
• 1:00
  until
• 1:01
  your
• 1:01
  circumstances
• 1:02
  change
• 1:02
  to
• 1:03
  start
• 1:03
  your
• 1:04
  circumstances
• 1:05
  conform
• 1:06
  to
• 1:06
  your
• 1:06
  internal
• 1:07
  state,
• 1:08
  not
• 1:08
  the
• 1:08
  other
• 1:08
  way
• 1:08
  around.
• 1:09
  Aligned,
• 1:10
  intentional
• 1:11
  living
• 1:12
  that.
• 1:13
  Is
• 1:13
  the
• 1:13
  soft
• 1:14
  life,
• 1:14
  and

  Girl
• 2:09
  era
• 2:09
  for
• 2:09
  a
• 2:09
  second?
• 2:10
  Because
• 2:10
  I
• 2:10
  feel
• 2:11
  like
• 2:11
  it's
• 2:11
  gotten
• 2:12
  a
• 2:12
  little
• 2:12
  bit
• 2:12
  of
• 2:12
  a
• 2:13
  reputation.
• 2:15
  And
• 2:16
  I
• 2:16
  wanna
• 2:16
  address
• 2:16
  it
• 2:17
  because

  content.
• 2:22
  Somebody
• 2:23
  is
• 2:23
  being
• 2:23
  weighted
• 2:24
  on
• 2:24
  hand
• 2:25
  and
• 2:25
  foot.
• 2:25
  She's
• 2:26
  floating
• 2:26
  through
• 2:27
  her
• 2:27
  day,
• 2:27
  she's
• 2:28
  moving
• 2:28
  about
• 2:28
  freely
• 2:29
  whenever
• 2:29
  she
• 2:30
  feels
• 2:30
  like
• 2:30
  it.
• 2:31
  Everything
• 2:31
  is
• 2:31
  handled,
• 2:32
  everything
• 2:33
  is
• 2:33
  peaceful,
• 2:33
  everything
• 2:34
  is
• 2:34
  just
• 2:35
  soft.
• 2:36
  And
• 2:36
  listen,
• 2:37
  I
• 2:37
  ain't
• 2:37
  mad
• 2:38
  at
• 2:38
  a
• 2:38
  friend
• 2:40
  that
• 2:41
  looks
• 2:41
  absolutely
• 2:42
  phenomenal,
• 2:43
  okay?
• 2:46
  But
• 2:46
  here's
• 2:47
  what
• 2:47
  I
• 2:47
  also
• 2:47
  know
• 2:48
  for
• 2:48
  a
• 2:48
  lot
• 2:49
  of
• 2:49
  women
• 2:49
  listening
• 2:50
  to
• 2:50
  this
• 2:50
  right
• 2:50
  now,
• 2:51
  the
• 2:51
  version
• 2:52
  of
• 2:52
  soft
• 2:53
  feels
• 2:53
  so
• 2:54
  far
• 2:54
  away
• 2:55
  from
• 2:55
  the
• 2:55
  life
• 2:55
  they're
• 2:56
  actually
• 2:56
  living,
• 2:57
  that
• 2:58
  it's
• 2:58
  almost
• 2:58
  laughable
• 2:59
  and
• 3:00
  maybe
• 3:00
  in
• 3:01
  that
• 3:01
  laugh
• 3:01
  to
• 3:01
  keep
• 3:02
  from
• 3:02
  crying
• 3:02
  kinda
• 3:03
  way.
• 3:06
  Because
• 3:06
  listen,
• 3:07
  if
• 3:07
  you
• 3:07
  are
• 3:08
  the
• 3:08
  one
• 3:08
  handling
• 3:09
  everything,
• 3:10
  you
• 3:10
  are
• 3:10
  the
• 3:10
  one
• 3:10
  everybody
• 3:11
  is
• 3:11
  coming
• 3:12
  to
• 3:12
  and
• 3:13
  softness
• 3:13
  feels
• 3:13
  like
• 3:13
  something
• 3:14
  you
• 3:14
  get
• 3:14
  to
• 3:15
  do
• 3:15
  someday
• 3:16
  when
• 3:17
  things
• 3:17
  slow
• 3:17
  down
• 3:18
  or
• 3:19
  someone
• 3:19
  comes
• 3:19
  along
• 3:20
  to
• 3:20
  help
• 3:20
  you
• 3:21
  carry
• 3:21
  it
• 3:21
  all.
• 3:22
  Or
• 3:22
  maybe
• 3:22
  you're
• 3:22
  just
• 3:23
  the
• 3:23
  ambitious
• 3:24
  woman
• 3:24
  truly
• 3:25
  running
• 3:25
  things.
• 3:26
  Okay,
• 3:27
  friend,
• 3:27
  I
• 3:27
  see
• 3:28
  you
• 3:28
  girl.
• 3:30
  Somebody
• 3:31
  queue
• 3:31
  Kelis.
• 3:31
  'cause
• 3:32
  I'm
• 3:32
  bossy.
• 3:36
  So
• 3:36
  whether
• 3:37
  you
• 3:37
  are
• 3:37
  the
• 3:37
  one
• 3:38
  handling
• 3:38
  everything,
• 3:39
  the
• 3:39
  ambitious
• 3:40
  one,
• 3:41
  or
• 3:41
  you're
• 3:41
  just
• 3:41
  somewhere
• 3:42
  in
• 3:42
  between,
• 3:43
  and
• 3:43
  it
• 3:43
  seems
• 3:44
  as
• 3:44
  if
• 3:44
  the
• 3:44
  soft
• 3:45
  life
• 3:45
  just
• 3:46
  isn't
• 3:46
  even
• 3:46
  available
• 3:47
  to
• 3:47
  you.
• 3:48
  Friend,
• 3:48
  can
• 3:49
  I
• 3:49
  just
• 3:49
  tell
• 3:49
  you
• 3:50
  I
• 3:50
  am
• 3:51
  a
• 3:51
  soft
• 3:51
  girl
• 3:52
  and
• 3:53
  I'm
• 3:53
  also
• 3:54
  one
• 3:54
  of
• 3:54
  the
• 3:54
  most
• 3:54
  ambitious
• 3:55
  women
• 3:55
  I
• 3:56
  know,
• 3:56
  and
• 3:56
  I
• 3:57
  don't
• 3:57
  say
• 3:57
  that
• 3:57
  to
• 3:57
  brag.
• 3:58
  I
• 3:58
  say
• 3:58
  that
• 3:58
  because
• 3:59
  I
• 4:00
  need
• 4:00
  you
• 4:00
  to
• 4:01
  see
• 4:01
  that
• 4:02
  those
• 4:02
  two
• 4:03
  things
• 4:03
  are
• 4:03
  not
• 4:04
  opposites.
• 4:05
  They're
• 4:05
  not
• 4:05
  mutually
• 4:06
  exclusive.
• 4:07
  They
• 4:08
  never
• 4:08
  were,
• 4:09
  and
• 4:09
  they
• 4:09
  can
• 4:10
  coexist
• 4:11
  at
• 4:11
  the
• 4:11
  same
• 4:12
  time.
• 4:13
  You
• 4:13
  can
• 4:13
  have
• 4:14
  the
• 4:14
  peaceful
• 4:15
  mornings
• 4:15
  and
• 4:16
  the
• 4:16
  purpose-driven
• 4:17
  work.
• 4:18
  The
• 4:18
  candles
• 4:19
  and
• 4:19
  the
• 4:19
  calling
• 4:20
  friend.
• 4:20
  You
• 4:21
  can
• 4:21
  have
• 4:21
  it
• 4:21
  all
• 4:22
  at
• 4:22
  the
• 4:22
  same
• 4:22
  time.
• 4:23
  You
• 4:23
  do
• 4:23
  not
• 4:24
  have
• 4:24
  to
• 4:24
  choose,
• 4:25
  and
• 4:26
  you
• 4:26
  don't
• 4:26
  have
• 4:26
  to
• 4:26
  wait
• 4:27
  for
• 4:27
  your
• 4:27
  circumstances
• 4:28
  to
• 4:28
  change
• 4:29
  before
• 4:30
  you
• 4:30
  start
• 4:31
  living
• 4:31
  this
• 4:31
  way.
• 4:32
  Listen,
• 4:32
  I've
• 4:33
  expanded
• 4:34
  my
• 4:34
  definition
• 4:35
  of
• 4:35
  this.
• 4:36
  Soft
• 4:36
  life,
• 4:37
  and
• 4:37
  I
• 4:37
  invite
• 4:38
  you
• 4:38
  to
• 4:38
  join
• 4:38
  me.
• 4:39
  We
• 4:39
  get
• 4:39
  so
• 4:40
  conditioned
• 4:40
  to
• 4:40
  believe
• 4:41
  that
• 4:41
  there's
• 4:41
  only
• 4:42
  one
• 4:42
  definition,
• 4:43
  and
• 4:43
  if
• 4:43
  you
• 4:44
  or
• 4:44
  your
• 4:44
  life
• 4:45
  doesn't
• 4:45
  meet
• 4:46
  that
• 4:46
  criteria,
• 4:47
  then
• 4:47
  suddenly
• 4:48
  it
• 4:48
  doesn't
• 4:48
  apply
• 4:49
  to
• 4:49
  you,
• 4:49
  and
• 4:50
  it
• 4:50
  keeps
• 4:51
  so
• 4:51
  many
• 4:52
  amazing,
• 4:53
  ambitious.
• 4:54
  Strong
• 4:55
  women
• 4:55
  from
• 4:56
  giving
• 4:56
  themselves
• 4:56
  permission
• 4:57
  to
• 4:57
  breathe.
• 4:58
  We
• 4:59
  are
• 4:59
  sold
• 4:59
  the
• 5:00
  idea
• 5:01
  that
• 5:01
  if
• 5:01
  you're
• 5:01
  living
• 5:02
  the
• 5:02
  soft
• 5:02
  life,
• 5:03
  it
• 5:03
  counts
• 5:04
  you
• 5:04
  out.
• 5:05
  If
• 5:05
  you're
• 5:05
  an
• 5:05
  ambitious
• 5:06
  woman
• 5:06
  or
• 5:07
  a
• 5:07
  woman
• 5:07
  with
• 5:07
  a
• 5:07
  calling,
• 5:08
  a
• 5:08
  mission
• 5:09
  or
• 5:09
  purpose
• 5:10
  and
• 5:11
  friend,
• 5:11
  somewhere
• 5:12
  along
• 5:12
  the
• 5:12
  way,
• 5:13
  softness
• 5:14
  got
• 5:14
  confused
• 5:15
  with
• 5:16
  passivity.
• 5:17
  Like
• 5:17
  if
• 5:17
  you're
• 5:17
  choosing
• 5:18
  rest,
• 5:19
  peace,
• 5:19
  and
• 5:20
  ease.
• 5:21
  You
• 5:21
  must
• 5:21
  not
• 5:21
  want
• 5:22
  anything
• 5:22
  badly
• 5:23
  enough,
• 5:23
  like
• 5:23
  you
• 5:24
  must
• 5:24
  not
• 5:24
  be
• 5:24
  hungry
• 5:25
  enough.
• 5:26
  Or
• 5:26
  you
• 5:26
  don't
• 5:26
  take
• 5:27
  your
• 5:27
  goals
• 5:27
  seriously
• 5:28
  enough,
• 5:29
  and
• 5:29
  I
• 5:29
  wanna
• 5:30
  call
• 5:30
  that
• 5:30
  out
• 5:31
  exactly
• 5:32
  for
• 5:32
  what
• 5:32
  it
• 5:32
  is.
• 5:33
  That
• 5:34
  is
• 5:34
  hustle
• 5:34
  culture.
• 5:35
  And
• 5:35
  we
• 5:36
  already
• 5:36
  know
• 5:36
  hustle
• 5:37
  culture
• 5:37
  has
• 5:37
  been
• 5:37
  lying
• 5:38
  to
• 5:38
  us
• 5:38
  for
• 5:38
  the
• 5:39
  longest
• 5:39
  time.
• 5:39
  Okay?
• 5:40
  It
• 5:40
  kept
• 5:40
  us
• 5:41
  performing
• 5:42
  and
• 5:42
  doing
• 5:42
  all
• 5:42
  the
• 5:42
  things
• 5:43
  for
• 5:43
  everybody
• 5:44
  else
• 5:44
  except
• 5:45
  ourselves.
• 5:45
  Okay?
• 5:48
  But
• 5:48
  here
• 5:48
  is
• 5:49
  what
• 5:49
  the
• 5:49
  soft
• 5:50
  and
• 5:51
  ambitious
• 5:51
  life
• 5:52
  actually
• 5:53
  looks
• 5:53
  like
• 5:53
  in
• 5:54
  real
• 5:54
  life,
• 5:55
  not
• 5:55
  on
• 5:55
  the
• 5:55
  internet.
• 5:56
  Okay,
• 5:57
  we
• 5:57
  talking
• 5:57
  about
• 5:57
  in
• 5:58
  real
• 5:58
  life,
• 5:59
  friend,
• 6:00
  do
• 6:00
  you
• 6:00
  know
• 6:01
  that
• 6:01
  you
• 6:01
  actually
• 6:01
  get
• 6:02
  to
• 6:02
  orchestrate,
• 6:03
  co-create
• 6:04
  your
• 6:05
  own
• 6:05
  life?
• 6:06
  It
• 6:06
  is
• 6:06
  the
• 6:07
  peaceful
• 6:07
  mornings
• 6:08
  that
• 6:08
  set
• 6:08
  the
• 6:08
  tone
• 6:09
  for
• 6:09
  your
• 6:09
  whole
• 6:10
  day
• 6:10
  before
• 6:11
  anything
• 6:11
  else
• 6:11
  gets
• 6:12
  your
• 6:12
  attention.
• 6:13
  It's
• 6:13
  also
• 6:14
  that
• 6:14
  purposeful
• 6:15
  work
• 6:15
  that
• 6:15
  flows
• 6:16
  from
• 6:16
  the
• 6:16
  place
• 6:17
  with
• 6:17
  intention
• 6:18
  behind
• 6:19
  it.
• 6:19
  It
• 6:20
  is
• 6:20
  the
• 6:20
  boundary
• 6:21
  that
• 6:21
  protects
• 6:21
  your
• 6:22
  energy
• 6:22
  and
• 6:22
  your
• 6:23
  peace.
• 6:24
  Along
• 6:24
  with
• 6:24
  the
• 6:24
  big
• 6:25
  dream,
• 6:25
  you
• 6:25
  are
• 6:25
  actively
• 6:26
  building
• 6:27
  because
• 6:27
  you
• 6:27
  have
• 6:27
  the
• 6:28
  energy
• 6:28
  to
• 6:28
  build
• 6:29
  it.
• 6:29
  It
• 6:30
  is
• 6:30
  the
• 6:30
  rest
• 6:31
  that
• 6:31
  genuinely
• 6:32
  refills
• 6:33
  you
• 6:33
  and
• 6:34
  the
• 6:34
  results
• 6:35
  that
• 6:35
  come
• 6:35
  from
• 6:35
  showing
• 6:36
  up
• 6:37
  from
• 6:37
  a
• 6:37
  full
• 6:37
  cup.
• 6:38
  Instead
• 6:38
  of
• 6:39
  a
• 6:39
  cup
• 6:39
  running
• 6:40
  on
• 6:40
  empty,
• 6:41
  you
• 6:41
  get
• 6:41
  the
• 6:41
  candles
• 6:42
  and
• 6:42
  the
• 6:42
  calling
• 6:42
  friend,
• 6:43
  not
• 6:44
  one
• 6:44
  or
• 6:44
  the
• 6:44
  other.
• 6:44
  You
• 6:45
  can
• 6:45
  have
• 6:45
  both.
• 6:47
  And
• 6:47
  listen,
• 6:47
  I
• 6:47
  want
• 6:48
  you
• 6:48
  to
• 6:48
  see
• 6:48
  this
• 6:49
  in
• 6:49
  real
• 6:49
  life
• 6:49
  because
• 6:50
  friend,
• 6:50
  I
• 6:51
  am
• 6:51
  living
• 6:51
  it.
• 6:52
  I
• 6:52
  have
• 6:52
  slow
• 6:53
  mornings
• 6:53
  that
• 6:53
  I
• 6:53
  protect
• 6:54
  fiercely.
• 6:55
  My
• 6:55
  workday
• 6:56
  does
• 6:56
  not
• 6:57
  start
• 6:57
  until
• 6:58
  I've
• 6:58
  had
• 6:59
  my
• 6:59
  me
• 6:59
  time,
• 7:00
  my
• 7:00
  meditation,
• 7:01
  prayer
• 7:02
  journal
• 7:02
  time
• 7:03
  that
• 7:03
  is
• 7:04
  just
• 7:04
  non-negotiable.
• 7:06
  and
• 7:06
  it's
• 7:06
  from
• 7:07
  that
• 7:07
  soft
• 7:07
  foundation
• 7:08
  that
• 7:08
  I'm
• 7:09
  able
• 7:09
  to
• 7:09
  post
• 7:10
  on
• 7:10
  YouTube
• 7:11
  every
• 7:12
  single
• 7:12
  day.
• 7:13
  Friend,
• 7:13
  I
• 7:14
  host
• 7:14
  a
• 7:14
  podcast
• 7:15
  twice
• 7:16
  a
• 7:16
  week.
• 7:16
  I'm
• 7:17
  building
• 7:17
  a
• 7:17
  business,
• 7:18
  a
• 7:18
  brand,
• 7:19
  a
• 7:19
  legacy,
• 7:20
  all
• 7:20
  of
• 7:21
  it
• 7:21
  from
• 7:21
  a
• 7:22
  soft
• 7:22
  place.
• 7:23
  Not
• 7:24
  in
• 7:24
  spite
• 7:25
  of
• 7:25
  softness,
• 7:26
  but
• 7:26
  because
• 7:26
  of
• 7:27
  it,
• 7:27
  a
• 7:27
  soft
• 7:28
  life
• 7:28
  is
• 7:29
  not
• 7:29
  the
• 7:29
  reward
• 7:30
  you
• 7:31
  get
• 7:31
  after
• 7:32
  ambition
• 7:32
  pays
• 7:33
  off.
• 7:33
  It
• 7:34
  is
• 7:34
  the
• 7:34
  foundation
• 7:35
  that
• 7:35
  ambition
• 7:36
  is
• 7:36
  actually
• 7:37
  built
• 7:37
  on,
• 7:38
  and
• 7:38
  everything
• 7:39
  you
• 7:39
  build
• 7:40
  from
• 7:40
  a
• 7:40
  soft
• 7:41
  aligned
• 7:41
  foundation,
• 7:42
  it's
• 7:43
  more
• 7:43
  sustainable,
• 7:44
  more
• 7:45
  creative,
• 7:45
  more
• 7:46
  real,
• 7:47
  and
• 7:47
  more
• 7:48
  you
• 7:49
  than
• 7:49
  anything
• 7:50
  you
• 7:50
  could
• 7:50
  ever
• 7:51
  grind
• 7:51
  your
• 7:51
  way
• 7:52
  to.
• 7:52
  And
• 7:52
  this
• 7:53
  is
• 7:53
  not
• 7:53
  an
• 7:53
  all
• 7:54
  or
• 7:54
  nothing
• 7:55
  situation.
• 7:56
  It
• 7:56
  is
• 7:56
  a
• 7:56
  combination
• 7:57
  you
• 7:57
  get
• 7:58
  to
• 7:58
  curate
• 7:58
  for
• 7:59
  yourself.
• 8:00
  Some
• 8:00
  days,
• 8:01
  yes,
• 8:01
  they
• 8:02
  may
• 8:02
  be
• 8:02
  more
• 8:02
  soft
• 8:03
  and
• 8:03
  some
• 8:04
  days
• 8:04
  may
• 8:04
  have
• 8:05
  more
• 8:05
  output,
• 8:06
  but
• 8:06
  both
• 8:07
  are
• 8:07
  always
• 8:08
  present,
• 8:09
  always
• 8:10
  honored
• 8:10
  and
• 8:11
  always
• 8:11
  yours
• 8:13
  and
• 8:13
  friend.
• 8:13
  I
• 8:13
  know
• 8:14
  you
• 8:14
  might
• 8:15
  be
• 8:15
  thinking.
• 8:15
  This
• 8:16
  sounds
• 8:17
  really
• 8:17
  incredible,
• 8:18
  Letitia,
• 8:18
  but
• 8:19
  you
• 8:19
  have
• 8:19
  not
• 8:19
  seen
• 8:20
  my
• 8:20
  life.
• 8:20
  Girl.
• 8:23
  You
• 8:23
  are
• 8:23
  thinking
• 8:24
  you
• 8:24
  ain't
• 8:24
  nowhere
• 8:25
  near
• 8:25
  a
• 8:25
  soft
• 8:26
  season.
• 8:29
  You
• 8:29
  are
• 8:29
  fully
• 8:30
  in
• 8:30
  the
• 8:30
  thick
• 8:30
  of
• 8:30
  it
• 8:31
  and
• 8:31
  softness
• 8:32
  feels
• 8:32
  like
• 8:33
  a
• 8:33
  luxury
• 8:33
  you
• 8:34
  genuinely
• 8:35
  cannot
• 8:35
  afford
• 8:35
  right
• 8:36
  now.
• 8:39
  So
• 8:39
  friend,
• 8:39
  take
• 8:40
  a
• 8:40
  breath.
• 8:41
  This
• 8:41
  is
• 8:41
  exactly
• 8:42
  where
• 8:43
  we're
• 8:43
  going
• 8:43
  next.
• 8:44
  So
• 8:45
  let
• 8:45
  me
• 8:45
  take
• 8:45
  you
• 8:45
  back
• 8:46
  for
• 8:46
  a
• 8:46
  second
• 8:46
  because
• 8:47
  I
• 8:47
  want
• 8:47
  you
• 8:47
  to
• 8:47
  see
• 8:48
  how
• 8:48
  I
• 8:48
  got
• 8:48
  here,
• 8:49
  because
• 8:49
  it
• 8:49
  was
• 8:49
  not
• 8:50
  always
• 8:50
  like
• 8:51
  this
• 8:51
  friend,
• 8:52
  not
• 8:52
  even
• 8:52
  a
• 8:52
  little
• 8:53
  bit.
• 8:53
  Okay.
• 8:54
  During
• 8:54
  my
• 8:55
  single
• 8:55
  mom
• 8:55
  season,
• 8:56
  softness
• 8:57
  did
• 8:58
  absolutely
• 8:59
  feel
• 8:59
  like
• 8:59
  a
• 8:59
  luxury
• 9:00
  that
• 9:01
  I
• 9:01
  was
• 9:01
  never
• 9:02
  gonna
• 9:02
  be
• 9:02
  able
• 9:02
  to
• 9:02
  buy.
• 9:03
  There
• 9:03
  was
• 9:04
  definitely
• 9:04
  that
• 9:04
  season
• 9:05
  when
• 9:05
  I
• 9:05
  was
• 9:06
  doing
• 9:06
  it.
• 9:06
  All
• 9:07
  two
• 9:07
  kids,
• 9:07
  no
• 9:08
  backup,
• 9:08
  nobody
• 9:09
  to
• 9:09
  tag
• 9:09
  in
• 9:10
  at
• 9:10
  the
• 9:10
  last
• 9:11
  minute.
• 9:11
  Okay.
• 9:12
  And
• 9:12
  hardness
• 9:13
  was
• 9:13
  not
• 9:14
  something
• 9:14
  I
• 9:14
  chose.
• 9:15
  It
• 9:16
  was
• 9:16
  something
• 9:16
  I
• 9:16
  survived.
• 9:18
  I
• 9:18
  had
• 9:18
  to
• 9:18
  keep
• 9:19
  going
• 9:19
  because
• 9:20
  there
• 9:20
  was
• 9:20
  nobody
• 9:21
  else.
• 9:22
  And
• 9:22
  I
• 9:22
  am
• 9:23
  so
• 9:23
  proud
• 9:24
  of
• 9:24
  that
• 9:25
  woman.
• 9:26
  She
• 9:26
  showed
• 9:26
  up
• 9:26
  every
• 9:27
  single
• 9:27
  day
• 9:28
  for
• 9:28
  her
• 9:28
  babies
• 9:29
  and
• 9:29
  she
• 9:30
  figured
• 9:30
  it
• 9:30
  out.
• 9:31
  But
• 9:31
  friend,
• 9:32
  let's
• 9:32
  be
• 9:32
  real
• 9:33
  old
• 9:33
  girl
• 9:33
  was
• 9:34
  running
• 9:34
  on
• 9:34
  empty
• 9:35
  most
• 9:36
  of
• 9:36
  the
• 9:36
  time.
• 9:39
  And
• 9:39
  the
• 9:39
  dream
• 9:40
  she
• 9:40
  had
• 9:40
  for
• 9:40
  herself,
• 9:41
  if
• 9:42
  they
• 9:42
  weren't
• 9:42
  on
• 9:42
  the
• 9:43
  back
• 9:43
  burner,
• 9:43
  they
• 9:44
  were
• 9:44
  literally
• 9:45
  in
• 9:45
  the
• 9:45
  creases
• 9:46
  and
• 9:46
  crevices
• 9:47
  of
• 9:48
  her
• 9:48
  trying
• 9:49
  not
• 9:49
  to
• 9:50
  forget
• 9:50
  them
• 9:50
  because
• 9:51
  there
• 9:51
  just
• 9:52
  wasn't
• 9:52
  a
• 9:52
  whole
• 9:52
  lot
• 9:53
  of
• 9:53
  space
• 9:53
  for
• 9:53
  them
• 9:53
  to
• 9:54
  even
• 9:54
  really
• 9:54
  fully
• 9:55
  exist.
• 9:56
  And
• 9:57
  then
• 9:57
  fast
• 9:57
  forward
• 9:58
  to
• 9:58
  my
• 9:59
  husband
• 9:59
  coming
• 10:00
  into
• 10:00
  my
• 10:00
  life
• 10:00
  and
• 10:01
  he
• 10:01
  did
• 10:01
  something
• 10:02
  nobody
• 10:03
  had
• 10:03
  ever
• 10:03
  really
• 10:04
  done
• 10:04
  for
• 10:04
  me
• 10:04
  before.
• 10:05
  He
• 10:05
  created
• 10:06
  this
• 10:07
  beautiful
• 10:08
  space
• 10:09
  of
• 10:09
  real
• 10:09
  safety,
• 10:11
  the
• 10:11
  kind
• 10:11
  where
• 10:12
  I
• 10:12
  could
• 10:12
  finally
• 10:13
  put
• 10:13
  some
• 10:13
  of
• 10:14
  it
• 10:14
  down
• 10:15
  And
• 10:15
  something
• 10:15
  that
• 10:16
  he
• 10:16
  said
• 10:16
  to
• 10:16
  me
• 10:17
  from
• 10:17
  then,
• 10:17
  even
• 10:18
  until
• 10:18
  now,
• 10:18
  periodically,
• 10:19
  he's
• 10:19
  still
• 10:20
  gotta
• 10:20
  remind
• 10:20
  me,
• 10:20
  friend.
• 10:20
  Okay.
• 10:21
  Because
• 10:21
  it's,
• 10:21
  it's
• 10:22
  deep
• 10:22
  rooted.
• 10:25
  But
• 10:25
  he
• 10:26
  will
• 10:26
  say
• 10:26
  to
• 10:26
  me,
• 10:27
  you
• 10:28
  know,
• 10:28
  you
• 10:28
  don't
• 10:28
  always
• 10:29
  have
• 10:29
  to
• 10:29
  do
• 10:30
  it
• 10:30
  all
• 10:30
  on
• 10:31
  your
• 10:31
  own.
• 10:32
  And
• 10:32
  friend,
• 10:33
  I
• 10:33
  swear
• 10:33
  the
• 10:34
  first
• 10:34
  time
• 10:34
  he's.
• 10:34
  Said
• 10:35
  it
• 10:35
  to
• 10:35
  me.
• 10:35
  I'm
• 10:36
  pretty
• 10:36
  sure
• 10:37
  I
• 10:37
  ugly,
• 10:37
  cried
• 10:38
  in
• 10:38
  the
• 10:38
  shower.
• 10:39
  Okay.
• 10:40
  Because
• 10:40
  I
• 10:41
  had
• 10:41
  been
• 10:41
  doing
• 10:41
  it
• 10:41
  on
• 10:42
  my
• 10:42
  own
• 10:42
  for
• 10:42
  so
• 10:43
  long
• 10:44
  that
• 10:44
  I
• 10:44
  forgot
• 10:45
  that
• 10:45
  that
• 10:45
  was
• 10:45
  even
• 10:46
  an
• 10:46
  option.
• 10:47
  Okay.
• 10:48
  And
• 10:48
  when
• 10:48
  I
• 10:48
  finally
• 10:49
  put
• 10:49
  it
• 10:49
  down,
• 10:50
  when
• 10:50
  I
• 10:50
  finally
• 10:51
  allowed
• 10:52
  myself
• 10:52
  to
• 10:52
  receive
• 10:53
  support
• 10:54
  and
• 10:54
  rest
• 10:55
  real
• 10:55
  softness,
• 10:57
  I
• 10:57
  did
• 10:57
  not
• 10:58
  become
• 10:58
  less,
• 10:59
  I
• 10:59
  became
• 11:00
  more.
• 11:01
  More
• 11:01
  creative,
• 11:02
  more
• 11:02
  focused,
• 11:03
  more
• 11:03
  aligned,
• 11:05
  more
• 11:05
  productive
• 11:06
  in
• 11:06
  the
• 11:06
  hours
• 11:06
  that
• 11:07
  I
• 11:07
  was
• 11:07
  working,
• 11:08
  because
• 11:09
  I
• 11:09
  wasn't
• 11:09
  running
• 11:09
  off
• 11:10
  fumes
• 11:10
  anymore.
• 11:11
  And
• 11:11
  when
• 11:11
  I
• 11:12
  made
• 11:12
  the
• 11:12
  decision
• 11:13
  to
• 11:13
  build
• 11:13
  this
• 11:13
  business,
• 11:14
  I
• 11:14
  made
• 11:15
  a
• 11:15
  very
• 11:15
  specific
• 11:16
  promise
• 11:17
  to
• 11:17
  myself.
• 11:18
  I
• 11:18
  was
• 11:18
  not
• 11:19
  gonna
• 11:19
  build
• 11:20
  another
• 11:20
  job.
• 11:21
  I
• 11:21
  was
• 11:21
  not
• 11:22
  gonna
• 11:22
  grind
• 11:23
  my
• 11:23
  way
• 11:24
  into
• 11:24
  success
• 11:25
  because
• 11:26
  friend
• 11:26
  God
• 11:27
  already
• 11:27
  delivered
• 11:28
  me
• 11:28
  from
• 11:28
  corporate
• 11:28
  America.
• 11:29
  Okay?
• 11:30
  Why
• 11:30
  would
• 11:30
  I
• 11:30
  turn
• 11:31
  around
• 11:31
  and
• 11:31
  recreate
• 11:32
  the
• 11:32
  same
• 11:33
  energy
• 11:33
  in
• 11:34
  my
• 11:34
  business
• 11:35
  that
• 11:35
  he
• 11:35
  done
• 11:35
  saved
• 11:36
  me
• 11:36
  from?
• 11:38
  So
• 11:39
  I
• 11:39
  chose
• 11:40
  a
• 11:40
  soft
• 11:40
  foundation.
• 11:41
  Slow
• 11:42
  mornings
• 11:42
  intentional
• 11:43
  flow.
• 11:44
  Rest
• 11:45
  as
• 11:45
  a
• 11:45
  non-negotiable
• 11:46
  joy,
• 11:47
  as
• 11:47
  a
• 11:47
  prerequisite,
• 11:48
  not
• 11:49
  a
• 11:49
  reward.
• 11:50
  And
• 11:50
  look
• 11:50
  at
• 11:51
  what
• 11:51
  has
• 11:51
  been
• 11:51
  built
• 11:52
  from
• 11:52
  that
• 11:53
  place,
• 11:54
  this
• 11:54
  podcast,
• 11:56
  the
• 11:56
  YouTube
• 11:56
  channel,
• 11:57
  this
• 11:57
  community,
• 11:58
  this
• 11:58
  purpose
• 11:59
  that
• 11:59
  I
• 11:59
  get
• 12:00
  to
• 12:00
  live
• 12:00
  out
• 12:01
  loud
• 12:01
  every
• 12:02
  single
• 12:02
  day.
• 12:03
  Softness
• 12:04
  did
• 12:04
  not
• 12:05
  slow
• 12:05
  me
• 12:05
  down.
• 12:06
  Friend,
• 12:07
  it
• 12:07
  sped
• 12:08
  everything
• 12:08
  up
• 12:09

  when
• 12:10
  you
• 12:10
  are
• 12:10
  aligned,
• 12:11
  rested,
• 12:12
  and
• 12:13
  operating
• 12:13
  from
• 12:14
  a
• 12:14
  full
• 12:14
  cup,
• 12:15
  everything
• 12:16
  you
• 12:16
  produce
• 12:16
  from
• 12:17
  that
• 12:17
  place
• 12:18
  is
• 12:18
  even
• 12:19
  better,
• 12:19
  fuller,
• 12:20
  more
• 12:21
  real,
• 12:21
  more
• 12:22
  you.

  And
• 12:23
  I

  really
• 12:24
  hold
• 12:24
  your

  as
• 12:25
  we

• 12:26
  into
• 12:26
  this
• 12:26
  next
• 12:26
  part
• 12:27

  The

• 12:32
  where
• 12:32
  rest
• 12:33
  feels
• 12:34
  impossible
• 12:35
  and
• 12:35
  softness
• 12:36
  feels
• 12:36
  like
• 12:36
  something
• 12:37
  other

• 14:14
  right
• 14:14
  now
• 14:15
  today,
• 14:16
  even
• 14:16
  with
• 14:17
  tiny
• 14:17
  and
• 14:18
  intentional
• 14:18
  moments
• 14:19
  of
• 14:19
  softness
• 14:20
  that
• 14:20
  tell
• 14:21
  your
• 14:21
  nervous
• 14:21
  system.
• 14:22
  We
• 14:23
  are
• 14:23
  safe,
• 14:24
  we
• 14:24
  can
• 14:24
  breathe.
• 14:25
  We
• 14:25
  do
• 14:26
  not
• 14:26
  have
• 14:26
  to
• 14:26
  be
• 14:27
  on
• 14:27
  high
• 14:27
  alert
• 14:29
  every
• 14:29
  single
• 14:29
  moment.
• 14:30
  And
• 14:30
  I
• 14:30
  really
• 14:31
  want
• 14:31
  you
• 14:31
  to
• 14:31
  hear
• 14:31
  how
• 14:32
  simple
• 14:33
  this
• 14:33
  actually
• 14:34
  is
• 14:34
  because
• 14:34
  I
• 14:35
  don't
• 14:35
  wanna
• 14:35
  overcomplicate
• 14:36
  it.
• 14:36
  Okay?
• 14:36
  'cause
• 14:36
  listen,
• 14:37
  you
• 14:37
  know,
• 14:37
  we
• 14:37
  good
• 14:37
  at
• 14:37
  overcomplicating
• 14:38
  some
• 14:39
  things.
• 14:41
  It
• 14:41
  can
• 14:42
  be
• 14:42
  as
• 14:42
  simple
• 14:43
  as
• 14:44
  the
• 14:44
  morning
• 14:45
  anchor,
• 14:46
  even
• 14:46
  if
• 14:46
  it's
• 14:47
  just
• 14:47
  five
• 14:47
  minutes
• 14:48
  before
• 14:49
  the
• 14:49
  day
• 14:49
  takes
• 14:50
  over
• 14:51
  before
• 14:51
  the
• 14:51
  kids
• 14:51
  wake
• 14:52
  up
• 14:52
  and
• 14:52
  your
• 14:52
  phone
• 14:53
  starts
• 14:53
  ringing
• 14:54
  and
• 14:54
  the
• 14:54
  list
• 14:55
  starts
• 14:55
  running
• 14:55
  off
• 14:56
  the
• 14:56
  hook.
• 14:57
  Five
• 14:57
  minutes
• 14:58
  that
• 14:58
  belong
• 14:59
  only
• 15:00
  to
• 15:00
  you.
• 15:01
  For
• 15:01
  meditation,
• 15:03
  prayer,
• 15:04
  journaling
• 15:05
  to
• 15:05
  just
• 15:05
  sit
• 15:06
  quiet
• 15:06
  and
• 15:06
  enjoy
• 15:07
  your
• 15:08
  cup
• 15:08
  of
• 15:08
  coffee.
• 15:09
  Whatever
• 15:10
  it
• 15:10
  is
• 15:10
  that
• 15:11
  fills
• 15:11
  you
• 15:11
  up
• 15:12
  five
• 15:13
  minutes
• 15:13
  of
• 15:13
  something
• 15:14
  that
• 15:14
  is
• 15:14
  just
• 15:14
  purely
• 15:15
  yours.
• 15:17
  It
• 15:17
  really
• 15:17
  is
• 15:17
  enough
• 15:18
  to
• 15:18
  shift
• 15:18
  the
• 15:19
  tone
• 15:19
  of
• 15:19
  your
• 15:20
  entire
• 15:20
  day.
• 15:21
  That
• 15:21
  is
• 15:21
  not
• 15:22
  a
• 15:22
  luxury.
• 15:23
  That's
• 15:23
  a
• 15:23
  lifeline.
• 15:24
  Or
• 15:25
  the
• 15:25
  one
• 15:25
  minute
• 15:25
  pause
• 15:26
  before
• 15:27
  you
• 15:27
  react
• 15:28
  to
• 15:28
  something
• 15:28
  hard,
• 15:29
  a
• 15:29
  situation,
• 15:30
  an
• 15:30
  email,
• 15:31
  a
• 15:31
  conversation
• 15:33
  that
• 15:33
  is
• 15:33
  trying
• 15:34
  to
• 15:34
  pull
• 15:34
  you
• 15:35
  into
• 15:35
  survival
• 15:35
  mode.
• 15:36
  Just
• 15:37
  give
• 15:37
  yourself
• 15:38
  one
• 15:38
  minute
• 15:39
  to
• 15:39
  just
• 15:40
  breathe.
• 15:41
  You
• 15:41
  can
• 15:41
  even
• 15:41
  try
• 15:41
  this
• 15:42
  in
• 15:42
  the
• 15:42
  morning
• 15:42
  before
• 15:43
  you
• 15:43
  get
• 15:43
  outta
• 15:43
  bed,
• 15:44
  before
• 15:44
  your
• 15:44
  feet
• 15:45
  hit
• 15:45
  the
• 15:45
  floor
• 15:46
  and
• 15:46
  the
• 15:46
  day
• 15:46
  starts
• 15:47
  pulling
• 15:47
  you
• 15:48
  into
• 15:48
  a
• 15:48
  gazillion
• 15:49
  directions.
• 15:50
  Do
• 15:50
  some
• 15:51
  breathing
• 15:51
  where
• 15:51
  your
• 15:52
  exhale
• 15:52
  is
• 15:53
  longer
• 15:54
  than
• 15:54
  your
• 15:54
  inhale.
• 15:55
  You
• 15:55
  can
• 15:55
  breathe
• 15:56
  in
• 15:56
  for
• 15:57
  four
• 15:57
  counts
• 15:58
  and
• 15:58
  breathe
• 15:59
  out
• 15:59
  for
• 15:59
  six
• 16:00
  and
• 16:01
  do
• 16:01
  that
• 16:01
  three
• 16:02
  times.
• 16:03
  That's
• 16:03
  it.
• 16:04
  That
• 16:04
  is
• 16:04
  telling
• 16:05
  your
• 16:05
  nervous
• 16:05
  system.
• 16:06
  We
• 16:07
  are
• 16:07
  safe
• 16:07
  today.
• 16:08
  We
• 16:08
  are
• 16:09
  not
• 16:09
  in
• 16:09
  survival
• 16:10
  mode
• 16:11
  today.
• 16:11
  We
• 16:12
  are
• 16:12
  soft
• 16:13
  today,
• 16:14
  and
• 16:14
  your
• 16:14
  body
• 16:14
  will
• 16:14
  believe
• 16:15
  you.
• 16:15
  and
• 16:16
  listen,
• 16:16
  friend,
• 16:16
  I
• 16:17
  love
• 16:17
  this
• 16:17
  stuff.
• 16:18
  So
• 16:18
  if
• 16:18
  you
• 16:18
  wanna
• 16:19
  learn
• 16:19
  even
• 16:19
  more
• 16:20
  about
• 16:20
  your
• 16:20
  nervous
• 16:21
  system
• 16:21
  and
• 16:22
  go
• 16:22
  even
• 16:22
  deeper
• 16:23
  on
• 16:23
  the
• 16:23
  benefits
• 16:23
  of
• 16:23
  this,
• 16:24
  I'll
• 16:24
  definitely
• 16:25
  be
• 16:25
  talking
• 16:26
  about
• 16:26
  this
• 16:26
  in
• 16:26
  the
• 16:26
  next
• 16:27
  YouTube
• 16:27
  video.
• 16:28
  So
• 16:28
  make
• 16:28
  sure
• 16:29
  that
• 16:29
  you
• 16:29
  join
• 16:29
  me
• 16:29
  over
• 16:29
  there.
• 16:30
  Okay?
• 16:30
  Because
• 16:30
  we'll
• 16:30
  keep
• 16:31
  the
• 16:31
  conversation
• 16:31
  going,
• 16:32
  friend.
• 16:32
  Yes.
• 16:34
  and
• 16:34
  next,
• 16:35
  ask
• 16:36
  yourself
• 16:36
  what
• 16:37
  the
• 16:37
  aligned
• 16:37
  version
• 16:38
  of
• 16:38
  you
• 16:38
  would
• 16:39
  do
• 16:39
  here,
• 16:39
  and
• 16:40
  then
• 16:41
  respond
• 16:41
  from
• 16:42
  that
• 16:42
  place.
• 16:43
  Instead
• 16:44
  of
• 16:44
  from
• 16:44
  that
• 16:44
  depleted
• 16:45
  running
• 16:46
  on
• 16:46
  empty
• 16:46
  version
• 16:47
  of
• 16:47
  you.
• 16:47
  Okay.
• 16:48
  Something
• 16:49
  else
• 16:49
  you
• 16:49
  can
• 16:49
  do
• 16:50
  is
• 16:50
  name
• 16:51
  your
• 16:51
  need
• 16:52
  out
• 16:52
  loud
• 16:53
  to
• 16:53
  yourself
• 16:53
  at
• 16:54
  first,
• 16:54
  because
• 16:55
  so
• 16:55
  many
• 16:55
  of
• 16:55
  us
• 16:56
  have
• 16:56
  been
• 16:56
  busy
• 16:56
  and
• 16:57
  anticipating
• 16:58
  everybody
• 16:58
  else's
• 16:59
  needs
• 17:00
  that
• 17:00
  we
• 17:00
  have
• 17:00
  completely
• 17:01
  lost
• 17:02
  the
• 17:02
  practice
• 17:03
  of
• 17:03
  even
• 17:03
  identifying
• 17:05
  our
• 17:05
  own.
• 17:06
  One
• 17:06
  of
• 17:06
  my
• 17:06
  favorite
• 17:07
  questions
• 17:07
  to
• 17:07
  ask
• 17:08
  is,
• 17:08
  what
• 17:09
  do
• 17:09
  I
• 17:09
  need
• 17:09
  today?
• 17:10
  What
• 17:10
  does
• 17:11
  my
• 17:11
  body
• 17:11
  need
• 17:12
  right
• 17:12
  now?
• 17:13
  And
• 17:13
  then
• 17:14
  give
• 17:14
  it
• 17:15
  to
• 17:15
  yourself,
• 17:16
  not
• 17:16
  someday,
• 17:17
  but
• 17:17
  right
• 17:18
  now.
• 17:19
  And
• 17:19
  friend,
• 17:20
  this
• 17:20
  is
• 17:20
  so
• 17:20
  important
• 17:21
  because
• 17:21
  this
• 17:22
  is
• 17:22
  how
• 17:22
  you
• 17:23
  teach
• 17:23
  yourself
• 17:24
  that
• 17:24
  you
• 17:24
  are
• 17:25
  a
• 17:25
  priority.
• 17:26
  You
• 17:27
  do
• 17:27
  deserve
• 17:28
  to
• 17:28
  be
• 17:28
  within
• 17:29
  your
• 17:29
  top
• 17:29
  three
• 17:30
  priorities.
• 17:31
  You
• 17:31
  absolutely
• 17:32
  deserve
• 17:32
  that.
• 17:33
  So
• 17:33
  yes.
• 17:34
  Could
• 17:35
  there
• 17:35
  be
• 17:35
  things
• 17:36
  that
• 17:36
  your
• 17:36
  body
• 17:37
  needs
• 17:37
  and
• 17:37
  there's
• 17:37
  just
• 17:38
  no
• 17:38
  way
• 17:38
  it's
• 17:38
  gonna
• 17:39
  happen
• 17:39
  today?
• 17:40
  Sure.
• 17:40
  Schedule
• 17:41
  it,
• 17:41
  but
• 17:42
  make
• 17:42
  sure
• 17:43
  that
• 17:43
  even
• 17:43
  if
• 17:43
  it's
• 17:44
  just
• 17:44
  a
• 17:44
  small
• 17:45
  mini
• 17:45
  practice
• 17:46
  of
• 17:46
  that,
• 17:47
  do
• 17:47
  it
• 17:48
  today.
• 17:49
  And
• 17:49
  also
• 17:50
  one
• 17:50
  soft
• 17:51
  moment
• 17:52
  per
• 17:52
  day
• 17:53
  that
• 17:53
  is
• 17:53
  non-negotiable.
• 17:55
  It's
• 17:55
  not
• 17:55
  earned
• 17:56
  and
• 17:56
  it's
• 17:57
  not
• 17:57
  scheduled
• 17:58
  around
• 17:58
  everybody
• 17:59
  else's
• 17:59
  needs.
• 18:00
  Just
• 18:01
  yours.
• 18:02
  It
• 18:03
  could
• 18:03
  be
• 18:03
  a
• 18:03
  walk,
• 18:04
  a
• 18:04
  bath,
• 18:05
  a
• 18:05
  chapter
• 18:05
  of
• 18:06
  a
• 18:06
  book.
• 18:06
  Whatever
• 18:07
  it
• 18:07
  is,
• 18:08
  protect
• 18:09
  it.
• 18:09
  Friend,
• 18:10
  you
• 18:10
  are
• 18:10
  your
• 18:11
  most
• 18:11
  valuable,
• 18:12
  most
• 18:12
  important
• 18:13
  client.
• 18:14
  Okay?
• 18:14
  You
• 18:15
  are
• 18:15
  the
• 18:15
  VIP
• 18:16
  in
• 18:16
  your
• 18:16
  own
• 18:17
  life.
• 18:17
  And
• 18:18
  what
• 18:18
  I
• 18:18
  hope
• 18:18
  you
• 18:18
  see
• 18:19
  is
• 18:19
  that
• 18:20
  it
• 18:20
  doesn't
• 18:20
  have
• 18:20
  to
• 18:20
  be
• 18:21
  these
• 18:21
  big,
• 18:22
  huge,
• 18:23
  dramatic
• 18:23
  lifestyle
• 18:24
  changes.
• 18:25
  These
• 18:26
  are
• 18:26
  tiny,
• 18:26
  consistent
• 18:27
  choices
• 18:28
  that
• 18:29
  actually
• 18:29
  give
• 18:29
  you
• 18:30
  a
• 18:30
  massive
• 18:31
  ROI.
• 18:33
  These
• 18:33
  are
• 18:33
  consistent
• 18:34
  choices
• 18:34
  that
• 18:35
  tell
• 18:35
  your
• 18:35
  nervous
• 18:36
  system
• 18:36
  a
• 18:36
  new
• 18:37
  story,
• 18:38
  And
• 18:38
  that
• 18:38
  new
• 18:38
  story
• 18:39
  becomes
• 18:40
  your
• 18:40
  new
• 18:40
  normal.
• 18:41
  And
• 18:41
  your

  have

  The

  the

  middle
• 18:59
  of
• 18:59
  the
• 18:59
  mess,
• 18:59
  okay?
• 19:00
  In
• 19:00
  the
• 19:01
  thick
• 19:01
  of
• 19:01
  the
• 19:01
  hard
• 19:02
  season.
• 19:02
  Okay?
• 19:04
  Just
• 19:04
  as
• 19:04
  soon
• 19:05
  as
• 19:05
  you
• 19:05
  decide
• 19:06
  you
• 19:06
  are
• 19:06
  worth
• 19:07
  choosing
• 19:08
  today,
• 19:09
  friend,
• 19:09
  the
• 19:10
  shift
• 19:10
  is
• 19:10
  already
• 19:11
  happening.
• 19:13
  you
• 19:13
  know,
• 19:14
  I
• 19:14
  remember
• 19:14
  sitting
• 19:15
  with
• 19:15
  so
• 19:15
  much
• 19:15
  awareness
• 19:16
  and
• 19:16
  absolutely
• 19:17
  nowhere
• 19:18
  to
• 19:18
  put
• 19:19
  it,
• 19:20
  something
• 19:21
  had
• 19:21
  cracked
• 19:21
  open
• 19:22
  in
• 19:22
  me
• 19:22
  and
• 19:23
  I
• 19:23
  didn't
• 19:23
  know
• 19:24
  what
• 19:24
  to
• 19:24
  do
• 19:24
  with
• 19:24
  what
• 19:25
  was
• 19:25
  spilling
• 19:25
  out.
• 19:26
  I
• 19:26
  had
• 19:26
  all
• 19:27
  of
• 19:27
  the
• 19:27
  feelings
• 19:28
  and
• 19:28
  none
• 19:28
  of
• 19:28
  the
• 19:29
  clarity,
• 19:29
  and
• 19:30
  I
• 19:30
  kept
• 19:30
  circling
• 19:31
  these
• 19:31
  same
• 19:32
  questions,
• 19:32
  wondering
• 19:33
  why
• 19:33
  nothing
• 19:34
  shifted
• 19:35
  until
• 19:36
  I
• 19:36
  started
• 19:36
  asking
• 19:37
  better
• 19:37
  ones,
• 19:38
  and
• 19:38
  that
• 19:38
  is
• 19:39
  when
• 19:39
  everything
• 19:40
  started
• 19:40
  to
• 19:40
  move.
• 19:41
  Not
• 19:42
  because
• 19:42
  I
• 19:42
  had
• 19:42
  all
• 19:42
  the
• 19:42
  answers,
• 19:43
  but
• 19:43
  because
• 19:44
  the
• 19:44
  right
• 19:44
  questions
• 19:45
  help
• 19:45
  me
• 19:45
  finally
• 19:46
  hear
• 19:47
  the
• 19:47
  ones
• 19:47
  I
• 19:48
  already
• 19:48
  had
• 19:48
  inside
• 19:49
  of
• 19:49
  me.
• 19:50
  And
• 19:50
  if
• 19:50
  you
• 19:50
  are
• 19:50
  sitting
• 19:51
  in
• 19:51
  that
• 19:51
  place
• 19:51
  right
• 19:52
  now,
• 19:52
  that
• 19:53
  is
• 19:53
  not
• 19:53
  a
• 19:53
  dead
• 19:54
  end
• 19:54
  friend.
• 19:54
  That
• 19:55
  is
• 19:55
  just
• 19:55
  an
• 19:56
  invitation
• 19:56
  to
• 19:57
  ask
• 19:57
  questions
• 19:58
  that
• 19:58
  move
• 19:59
  you
• 19:59
  forward.
• 20:01
  The
• 20:01
  Main
• 20:01
  Character
• 20:02
  Energy
• 20:02
  Journal
• 20:02
  Prompts
• 20:03
  are
• 20:03
  in
• 20:03
  the
• 20:03
  show
• 20:04
  notes,
• 20:04
  and
• 20:05
  they
• 20:05
  help
• 20:05
  you
• 20:05
  to
• 20:06
  get
• 20:06
  out
• 20:06
  of
• 20:06
  your
• 20:06
  head
• 20:07
  and
• 20:07
  into
• 20:07
  your
• 20:08
  heart
• 20:08
  so
• 20:09
  you
• 20:09
  can
• 20:09
  actually
• 20:09
  hear
• 20:10
  your
• 20:11
  truth
• 20:11
  And
• 20:11
  friend,
• 20:12
  I
• 20:13
  think
• 20:13
  you're
• 20:13
  ready.
• 20:16
  Okay,
• 20:16
  now
• 20:16
  you
• 20:17
  know
• 20:17
  I'm
• 20:17
  not
• 20:18
  gonna
• 20:18
  leave
• 20:18
  you
• 20:18
  with
• 20:19
  just
• 20:19
  the
• 20:19
  inspiration
• 20:20
  of
• 20:20
  the
• 20:20
  day
• 20:21
  because
• 20:21
  inspiration
• 20:22
  without
• 20:22
  application
• 20:24
  just
• 20:24
  keeps
• 20:24
  you
• 20:25
  in
• 20:25
  your
• 20:25
  feelings
• 20:26
  and
• 20:26
  not
• 20:26
  in
• 20:26
  your
• 20:27
  freedom.
• 20:29
  And
• 20:30
  I
• 20:30
  want
• 20:30
  you
• 20:30
  free
• 20:30
  friend.
• 20:31
  Okay,
• 20:32
  so
• 20:33
  let's
• 20:33
  talk
• 20:33
  about
• 20:33
  what
• 20:33
  you
• 20:34
  can
• 20:34
  actually
• 20:34
  do
• 20:35
  with
• 20:35
  everything
• 20:35
  that
• 20:36
  we
• 20:36
  just
• 20:36
  unpacked.
• 20:37
  This
• 20:38
  is
• 20:38
  your
• 20:38
  soft
• 20:39
  and
• 20:39
  ambition
• 20:40
  two
• 20:40
  step
• 20:41
  friend,
• 20:42
  because
• 20:43
  you
• 20:43
  know
• 20:44
  we
• 20:44
  love
• 20:44
  us
• 20:44
  a
• 20:44
  good
• 20:44
  two
• 20:45
  step.
• 20:45
  It's
• 20:46
  easy,
• 20:46
  everybody
• 20:47
  can
• 20:47
  do
• 20:47
  it,
• 20:48
  and
• 20:48
  it
• 20:48
  always
• 20:49
  gets
• 20:49
  the
• 20:49
  party
• 20:49
  started.
• 20:50
  And
• 20:50
  listen,
• 20:51
  we
• 20:51
  are
• 20:51
  gonna
• 20:52
  do
• 20:52
  a
• 20:52
  little
• 20:52
  remix,
• 20:53
  so
• 20:53
  ooh,
• 20:54
  let's
• 20:54
  get
• 20:54
  into
• 20:55
  it.
• 20:56
  Step
• 20:56
  one,
• 20:57
  give
• 20:57
  yourself
• 20:58
  the
• 20:58
  permission
• 20:59
  declaration
• 21:00
  out
• 21:00
  loud,
• 21:01
  friend,
• 21:02
  and
• 21:03
  I
• 21:03
  want
• 21:03
  you
• 21:03
  to
• 21:03
  try
• 21:04
  whispering
• 21:04
  it
• 21:05
  first.
• 21:06
  These
• 21:06
  will
• 21:06
  just
• 21:07
  be
• 21:07
  two
• 21:08
  simple
• 21:08
  I
• 21:09
  am
• 21:09
  statements,
• 21:10
  and
• 21:10
  I
• 21:10
  really
• 21:11
  just
• 21:11
  want
• 21:11
  you
• 21:11
  to
• 21:12
  pick
• 21:12
  your
• 21:13
  two
• 21:13
  words
• 21:14
  that
• 21:14
  best
• 21:15
  describe
• 21:16
  what
• 21:16
  you
• 21:17
  want
• 21:17
  to
• 21:17
  declare.
• 21:18
  So,
• 21:18
  for
• 21:18
  example,
• 21:19
  I
• 21:20
  am
• 21:20
  soft
• 21:21
  and
• 21:22
  I
• 21:22
  am
• 21:22
  ambitious.
• 21:24
  Both
• 21:24
  are
• 21:24
  true,
• 21:25
  both
• 21:25
  are
• 21:25
  allowed.
• 21:26
  You
• 21:27
  do
• 21:27
  not
• 21:27
  have
• 21:27
  to
• 21:27
  choose
• 21:28
  friend.
• 21:28
  You
• 21:29
  just
• 21:29
  have
• 21:29
  to
• 21:29
  say
• 21:30
  it
• 21:30
  like
• 21:30
  you
• 21:31
  mean
• 21:31
  it,
• 21:31
  and
• 21:31
  I
• 21:32
  actually
• 21:32
  want
• 21:32
  you
• 21:33
  to
• 21:33
  just
• 21:33
  whisper
• 21:34
  your
• 21:35
  declaration
• 21:36
  statement
• 21:36
  before
• 21:37
  you
• 21:37
  say
• 21:37
  it
• 21:37
  at
• 21:37
  full
• 21:38
  volume
• 21:38
  and
• 21:39
  hear
• 21:39
  me
• 21:39
  out
• 21:39
  on
• 21:40
  why
• 21:40
  I
• 21:40
  need
• 21:40
  you
• 21:40
  to
• 21:40
  do
• 21:41
  that.
• 21:41
  This
• 21:42
  is
• 21:42
  where
• 21:42
  I
• 21:42
  get
• 21:42
  to
• 21:42
  geeking
• 21:43
  out
• 21:43
  on
• 21:43
  neuroscience,
• 21:44
  okay.
• 21:46
  Because
• 21:47
  there's
• 21:47
  something
• 21:48
  deeply
• 21:48
  intimate
• 21:49
  that
• 21:49
  happens
• 21:50
  when
• 21:51
  you
• 21:51
  whisper
• 21:52
  a
• 21:52
  truth
• 21:53
  in
• 21:53
  a
• 21:53
  quiet
• 21:53
  moment.
• 21:54
  It
• 21:54
  actually
• 21:55
  bypasses
• 21:56
  all
• 21:56
  the
• 21:56
  noise
• 21:57
  and
• 21:58
  lands
• 21:58
  deeper
• 21:59
  subconsciously
• 22:01
  whispering
• 22:02
  makes
• 22:02
  your
• 22:02
  brain
• 22:02
  work
• 22:03
  harder
• 22:03
  to
• 22:03
  process
• 22:04
  it,
• 22:05
  and
• 22:05
  it
• 22:05
  bypasses
• 22:06
  your
• 22:06
  inner
• 22:06
  critic,
• 22:07
  so
• 22:08
  that
• 22:08
  part
• 22:08
  of
• 22:08
  your
• 22:08
  brain
• 22:09
  that
• 22:09
  loves
• 22:09
  to
• 22:10
  argue
• 22:10
  and
• 22:11
  point
• 22:11
  out
• 22:11
  all
• 22:11
  of
• 22:11
  the
• 22:12
  worst
• 22:12
  case
• 22:12
  scenarios.
• 22:15
  Yep.
• 22:15
  We're
• 22:15
  bypassing
• 22:16
  all
• 22:16
  that
• 22:17
  it
• 22:17
  feels
• 22:17
  less
• 22:18
  performative
• 22:19
  and
• 22:19
  signal
• 22:20
  safety
• 22:21
  to
• 22:21
  your
• 22:21
  nervous
• 22:22
  system.
• 22:23
  Remember,
• 22:23
  your
• 22:23
  words
• 22:24
  are
• 22:24
  creating
• 22:25
  your
• 22:25
  reality,
• 22:26
  whether
• 22:26
  you
• 22:26
  are
• 22:27
  being
• 22:27
  intentional
• 22:28
  about
• 22:28
  it
• 22:28
  or
• 22:28
  not.
• 22:29
  So
• 22:30
  let's
• 22:30
  be
• 22:30
  intentional.
• 22:31
  Okay?
• 22:31
  I
• 22:32
  am
• 22:32
  soft
• 22:33
  and
• 22:33
  ambitious,
• 22:35
  and
• 22:35
  I'm
• 22:35
  building
• 22:36
  a
• 22:36
  life
• 22:36
  that
• 22:37
  reflects
• 22:37
  both
• 22:38
  friend.
• 22:40
  Create
• 22:40
  your
• 22:40
  declaration,
• 22:42
  and
• 22:42
  whisper
• 22:42
  it,
• 22:42
  friend
• 22:43
  and
• 22:43
  own
• 22:44
  it
• 22:44
  when
• 22:44
  you
• 22:45
  do.
• 22:45
  And
• 22:46
  step
• 22:46
  two,
• 22:47
  choose
• 22:47
  one
• 22:48
  soft
• 22:48
  moment
• 22:49
  today.
• 22:50
  Right
• 22:50
  now,
• 22:51
  not
• 22:51
  tomorrow.
• 22:52
  Not
• 22:52
  when
• 22:52
  things
• 22:53
  slow
• 22:53
  down.
• 22:54
  Not
• 22:54
  after
• 22:54
  you
• 22:54
  finish
• 22:55
  everything
• 22:55
  on
• 22:55
  your
• 22:55
  list.
• 22:56
  But
• 22:57
  today,
• 22:58
  what
• 22:58
  is
• 22:58
  one?
• 22:59
  Small
• 23:00
  moment
• 23:00
  you
• 23:01
  can
• 23:01
  give
• 23:01
  yourself
• 23:02
  today
• 23:03
  that
• 23:03
  is
• 23:03
  purely
• 23:04
  yours.
• 23:06
  It
• 23:06
  doesn't
• 23:06
  have
• 23:06
  to
• 23:06
  be
• 23:07
  big.
• 23:07
  It

  up
• 23:09
  half
• 23:09
  of
• 23:09
  your
• 23:09
  day.
• 23:10
  It
• 23:10
  just
• 23:11
  has
• 23:11
  to
• 23:11
  be
• 23:11
  real
• 23:12
  and
• 23:13
  it
• 23:13
  has
• 23:13
  to
• 23:13
  be
• 23:14
  protected.
• 23:15
  A
• 23:15
  five
• 23:15
  minute
• 23:16
  morning
• 23:16
  anchor,
• 23:17
  a
• 23:17
  one
• 23:18
  minute
• 23:18
  pause
• 23:19
  before
• 23:19
  you
• 23:19
  react,
• 23:20
  a
• 23:20
  chapter
• 23:21
  of
• 23:21
  a
• 23:21
  book
• 23:22
  before
• 23:22
  bed,
• 23:23
  one
• 23:24
  soft
• 23:24
  moment
• 23:25
  that
• 23:26
  you
• 23:26
  treat
• 23:27
  like
• 23:27
  it
• 23:27
  matters
• 23:28
  because
• 23:28
  friend,
• 23:29
  it
• 23:29
  really
• 23:30
  does.
• 23:31
  And
• 23:31
  now
• 23:31
  it's
• 23:31
  time
• 23:31
  for
• 23:32
  the
• 23:32
  remix
• 23:33
  because
• 23:33
  a
• 23:34
  soft
• 23:34
  life
• 23:34
  is
• 23:35
  not
• 23:35
  something
• 23:35
  that
• 23:36
  you
• 23:36
  arrive
• 23:36
  at
• 23:37
  someday.
• 23:38
  It
• 23:38
  is
• 23:38
  something
• 23:39
  you
• 23:39
  choose
• 23:39
  today
• 23:40
  and
• 23:41
  every
• 23:41
  day
• 23:41
  after
• 23:41
  that
• 23:42
  one
• 23:42
  small,
• 23:43
  intentional
• 23:43
  moment
• 23:44
  at
• 23:44
  a
• 23:45
  time.
• 23:46
  Okay,
• 23:46
  friend.
• 23:46
  And
• 23:47
  for
• 23:47
  the
• 23:47
  remix,
• 23:47
  you
• 23:48
  know
• 23:48
  we
• 23:48
  gotta
• 23:48
  do
• 23:49
  the
• 23:49
  U
• 23:49
  step.
• 23:50
  This
• 23:50
  is
• 23:50
  where
• 23:51
  you
• 23:51
  get
• 23:51
  quiet.
• 23:52
  Get
• 23:52
  still
• 23:53
  and
• 23:54
  ask
• 23:54
  yourself,
• 23:55
  what
• 23:55
  is
• 23:56
  my
• 23:56
  heart
• 23:57
  telling
• 23:57
  me
• 23:58
  to
• 23:58
  do
• 23:58
  next?
• 23:59
  Whatever
• 24:00
  comes
• 24:00
  up,
• 24:01
  that
• 24:01
  is
• 24:02
  your
• 24:02
  next
• 24:03
  right
• 24:03
  aligned
• 24:04
  step.
• 24:05
  You
• 24:05
  don't
• 24:05
  need
• 24:05
  a
• 24:05
  whole
• 24:06
  plan,
• 24:06
  just
• 24:07
  the
• 24:07
  next
• 24:07
  move
• 24:08
  and
• 24:08
  trust
• 24:09
  her
• 24:09
  friend.
• 24:10
  She
• 24:10
  already
• 24:11
  knows.
• 24:12
  Remember
• 24:13
  your
• 24:13
  circumstances
• 24:14
  do
• 24:14
  not
• 24:15
  have
• 24:15
  to
• 24:15
  change.
• 24:16
  First,
• 24:17
  you
• 24:18
  change
• 24:18
  first
• 24:19
  and
• 24:19
  then
• 24:20
  watch
• 24:20
  what
• 24:21
  happens
• 24:21
  to
• 24:21
  everything
• 24:22
  around
• 24:22
  you.
• 24:23
  Because
• 24:23
  the
• 24:23
  world
• 24:24
  always
• 24:24
  responds
• 24:25
  to
• 24:26
  the
• 24:26
  woman
• 24:27
  who
• 24:27
  has
• 24:27
  decided,
• 24:29
  Ooh,
• 24:29
  for
• 24:29
  red.
• 24:30
  Now
• 24:30
  lemme
• 24:31
  pour
• 24:31
  into
• 24:31
  you
• 24:31
  real
• 24:31
  quick.
• 24:32
  I
• 24:32
  am
• 24:32
  speaking
• 24:33
  directly
• 24:34
  to
• 24:34
  that
• 24:35
  part
• 24:35
  of
• 24:35
  you
• 24:35
  who
• 24:36
  is
• 24:36
  listening
• 24:36
  to
• 24:36
  this,
• 24:37
  and
• 24:37
  she
• 24:38
  is
• 24:38
  tired,
• 24:39
  okay?
• 24:40
  Not
• 24:40
  the
• 24:40
  kind
• 24:40
  of
• 24:41
  tired
• 24:41
  that
• 24:41
  a
• 24:41
  good
• 24:42
  night's
• 24:42
  sleep
• 24:42
  will
• 24:43
  fix.
• 24:44
  The
• 24:44
  deep
• 24:44
  tired,
• 24:45
  the
• 24:45
  kind
• 24:46
  that
• 24:46
  comes
• 24:46
  from
• 24:47
  carrying
• 24:47
  way
• 24:48
  too
• 24:48
  much
• 24:49
  for
• 24:49
  way
• 24:49
  too
• 24:49
  long
• 24:50
  without
• 24:51
  enough
• 24:51
  support
• 24:52
  and
• 24:52
  without
• 24:53
  softness.
• 24:55
  Or
• 24:55
  without
• 24:55
  enough
• 24:56
  of
• 24:56
  just
• 24:56
  being
• 24:57
  allowed
• 24:57
  to
• 24:57
  be
• 24:58
  a
• 24:58
  human
• 24:58
  being.
• 24:59
  Who
• 25:00
  needs
• 25:00
  things
• 25:00
  too.
• 25:01
  I
• 25:02
  see
• 25:02
  you
• 25:02
  friend,
• 25:03
  and
• 25:03
  I
• 25:03
  want
• 25:03
  you
• 25:03
  to
• 25:03
  know
• 25:04
  the
• 25:04
  fact
• 25:05
  that
• 25:05
  you
• 25:05
  are
• 25:05
  still
• 25:06
  here,
• 25:06
  still
• 25:07
  showing
• 25:07
  up,
• 25:08
  still
• 25:08
  listening,
• 25:09
  still
• 25:10
  looking
• 25:10
  for
• 25:10
  a
• 25:10
  better
• 25:11
  way.
• 25:12
  That
• 25:12
  is
• 25:12
  not
• 25:13
  a
• 25:13
  small
• 25:13
  thing.
• 25:14
  That
• 25:14
  is
• 25:14
  everything.
• 25:16
  I
• 25:16
  want
• 25:16
  you
• 25:16
  to
• 25:16
  hear
• 25:17
  this
• 25:17
  with
• 25:17
  your
• 25:17
  whole
• 25:18
  heart.
• 25:19
  You
• 25:19
  were
• 25:19
  never
• 25:20
  meant
• 25:20
  to
• 25:20
  carry.
• 25:21
  All
• 25:21
  of
• 25:22
  this
• 25:22
  alone,
• 25:23
  the
• 25:23
  hardness
• 25:23
  that
• 25:24
  got
• 25:24
  you
• 25:24
  here,
• 25:25
  it
• 25:25
  served
• 25:26
  its
• 25:26
  purpose.
• 25:27
  It
• 25:27
  kept
• 25:27
  you
• 25:28
  going
• 25:28
  when
• 25:28
  you
• 25:28
  needed
• 25:29
  to
• 25:29
  keep
• 25:30
  going.
• 25:30
  But
• 25:31
  friend
• 25:31
  the
• 25:32
  season
• 25:32
  that
• 25:32
  required
• 25:33
  all
• 25:33
  of
• 25:33
  that
• 25:34
  hardness
• 25:35
  does
• 25:35
  not
• 25:35
  have
• 25:36
  to
• 25:36
  be
• 25:36
  permanent.
• 25:37
  You
• 25:37
  are
• 25:37
  allowed
• 25:39
  to
• 25:39
  put
• 25:39
  it
• 25:39
  down.
• 25:40
  You
• 25:40
  are
• 25:40
  allowed
• 25:41
  to
• 25:42
  choose
• 25:42
  softness
• 25:44
  even
• 25:44
  in
• 25:44
  the
• 25:44
  middle
• 25:45
  of
• 25:45
  a
• 25:45
  hard
• 25:45
  season.
• 25:46
  You
• 25:46
  are
• 25:46
  allowed
• 25:47
  to
• 25:47
  have
• 25:47
  a
• 25:47
  life
• 25:48
  that
• 25:48
  feels
• 25:49
  good
• 25:49
  to
• 25:50
  live.
• 25:51
  Not
• 25:51
  just
• 25:52
  good
• 25:52
  on
• 25:52
  paper.
• 25:53
  Give
• 25:53
  yourself
• 25:54
  permission
• 25:54
  today,
• 25:56
  not
• 25:56
  someday,
• 25:57
  not
• 25:57
  when
• 25:57
  the
• 25:57
  kids
• 25:58
  are
• 25:58
  older,
• 25:59
  not
• 25:59
  when
• 25:59
  the
• 25:59
  project
• 26:00
  is
• 26:00
  done,
• 26:00
  or
• 26:00
  when
• 26:01
  life
• 26:01
  slows
• 26:01
  down,
• 26:02
  and
• 26:02
  not
• 26:03
  whenever
• 26:03
  the
• 26:04
  hard
• 26:04
  season
• 26:05
  is
• 26:05
  over
• 26:06
  I
• 26:06
  am
• 26:06
  talking
• 26:07
  today
• 26:08
  because
• 26:08
  the
• 26:09
  woman
• 26:09
  you
• 26:09
  are
• 26:09
  becoming,
• 26:10
  she
• 26:11
  is
• 26:11
  building
• 26:11
  her
• 26:12
  life
• 26:13
  on
• 26:13
  a
• 26:13
  soft
• 26:14
  and
• 26:15
  strong
• 26:15
  foundation,
• 26:16
  and
• 26:17
  everything
• 26:17
  she
• 26:18
  builds
• 26:18
  from
• 26:18
  that
• 26:18
  place
• 26:19
  is
• 26:19
  going
• 26:20
  to
• 26:20
  be
• 26:20
  more
• 26:20
  beautiful,
• 26:21
  more
• 26:22
  sustainable,
• 26:23
  more
• 26:24
  her
• 26:24
  than
• 26:24
  anything
• 26:25
  she
• 26:25
  could
• 26:26
  have
• 26:26
  ever
• 26:26
  hustled
• 26:27
  and
• 26:27
  run
• 26:27
  herself
• 26:28
  to
• 26:28
  the
• 26:28
  ground
• 26:29
  trying
• 26:29
  to
• 26:29
  get
• 26:29
  to.
• 26:30
  Okay.
• 26:30
  I
• 26:31
  really
• 26:31
  believe
• 26:32
  that
• 26:32
  for
• 26:32
  you
• 26:32
  friend,
• 26:33
  with
• 26:34
  everything
• 26:35
  that
• 26:35
  I
• 26:35
  have.
• 26:36
  We've
• 26:37
  been
• 26:37
  conditioned
• 26:38
  to
• 26:38
  think
• 26:38
  that
• 26:38
  being
• 26:39
  soft
• 26:39
  is
• 26:40
  a
• 26:40
  weakness
• 26:41
  and
• 26:41
  there
• 26:41
  is
• 26:42
  so
• 26:42
  much
• 26:42
  strength
• 26:44
  in
• 26:44
  softness,
• 26:45
  and
• 26:46
  you
• 26:46
  can
• 26:46
  access
• 26:47
  your
• 26:47
  softness
• 26:49
  anytime
• 26:50
  you
• 26:50
  choose.
• 26:51
  The
• 26:51
  season
• 26:52
  does
• 26:52
  not
• 26:52
  matter,
• 26:52
  friend.
• 26:53
  It's
• 26:53
  up
• 26:54
  to
• 26:54
  you.
• 26:54
  It
• 26:55
  is
• 26:55
  your
• 26:56
  choice.
• 26:57
  You
• 26:58
  get
• 26:58
  to
• 26:58
  create
• 26:58
  your
• 26:59
  own
• 26:59
  version
• 27:00
  of
• 27:00
  your
• 27:00
  Soft
• 27:01
  Girl
• 27:01

  Ooh,

  Yes.
