  Speaker 1: Okay, everybody, Emily about it. Here. You're listening to five
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Minute Friday from Hurdle. Whether you've been here for a
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: long time or you're new to Hurdle. I am so
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: happy you're here, and thank you for being here. Thank
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: you for giving me your time for five minute Friday.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: A little reminder of how it goes down Here, I
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: share a story from my week, something that happened, to
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: take away that I had from that thing, and then
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: I answer a listener question. Of course, I would love
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to answer your listener question, so if you have one,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: please submit it in these show notes. There's a link
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: that says, ask me a voice message. I would love
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: to answer it on an upcoming episode this week. The
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: story I want to tell you is about a busy morning.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: I believe it was on Monday. I was dressed and
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: getting my act together before running out the door, and
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: I went into my bathroom to do one more look,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: see at what I looked like, and grab some perfume.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I spritched myself, I looked in the mirror, I put
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: the bottle back on the shelf. I turned around and
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I went to walk out, and upon getting over the
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: small divider, there's definitely a technical term for this, but
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: I don't have it on the top of my head.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Into my living room, I heard a crash and I
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: turned around and the entire perfume bottle was broken and
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: perfume was all over my bathroom tile. So I went
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: and got the dust pan and cleaned it up and
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: thought to myself, Oh, this sucks. And then I had
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: a moment where I giggled thinking about the alternative perspectives, right, like, yes,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: this sucks, but my bathroom is now going to smell
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: like Chanelle Gabrielle. Wow. No rhyming intended there for a minute,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and then I also thought, this is your opportunity to
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: try something new, to get a new scent, and that's
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: kind of fun. Haven't done that? In a minute? I digress.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: It's not always easy to shift your perspective like that,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: And I know that example kind of sounds a little
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: silly in nature, but it's applicable right everything that happens
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: for us on a day to day basis. It can
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: be hard, it can be challenging, we can do it anyway,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: and it is happening for us. I truly believe that,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: even in dark moments years down the line. When I
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: sit down and reflect now, I think about how thankful
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: I am that they have brought me to where I am.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Even again, if going through them felt like you were
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: crawling and clawing out of the mud, I get it.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I've been there. But these things they happen for us.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: And I'll tell you that later that day, I walked
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: myself into Sephora, I tried a dozen different sents and
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: walked out with a different bottle of Chanel. So my
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: question for you, what is one thing that happened recently
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: that made you feel some kind of way but you
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: could flip your perspective and think about the good, think
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: about how this challenge may have happened for you. Again,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: what is one challenge that you can think about that
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: you hurdled recently that you can say with confidence happened
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: for you? And now a listener question. Hi, Emily, this
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: is Claire from Brooklyn. Hope you're doing well. I just
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: wanted to know if there are any online fitness classes
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: that you're loving right now and why? Thank you so
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: much and hope you have a great day online fitness classes. Now,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I will admit that, as of late, the only digital
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: fitness classes I've been taking are Peloton, so I'm still
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: most often, more often than not, writing with my guy
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Alex Dusson. But when I'm not doing that, I am
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: all about using the Future app. Now, if you've been
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: listening regularly, then you know that Future is one of
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Hurdle's sponsors. But essentially you can think of it as
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: on demand personal training. You're working with a real coach
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: who's providing you with customized programming. I've been working with
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: my guy Brandon for gosh a few months now, and
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: I look forward to walking into the gym knowing exactly
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do, and that he's got my back,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: knowing what I have available to me, and he's also
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: able to modify and shift as maybe I need to
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: shift to. Anyway, this is not meant to be an
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: ad read here, but I will say that if you
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: want to try Future, head on over to try Future
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: dot com slash Hurdle, and right now you can actually
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: get a free month a free month by heading on
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: over to try Future dot com slash Hurdle. In terms
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: of other on demand workouts, one other thing I will
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: say I do love jumping around and getting out a
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: lot of energy and moving it with the help of
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the class from Tarin Doomy. I have had the good
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: fortune of doing it actually in person recently, and I'm
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: reminded just how much let's say, like just therapeutic vibes
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: that it gave me over the pandemic when I was
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: doing these classes in my apartment. It's a mix of
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: cardio and plates with a hint of you ooga. Trust me,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: if you're looking for a way to let the day go,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: it is one hundred percent a go to. That's it
• 6:07
