Transcript
- 0:01SPEAKER_00: Hi guys.
- 0:04SPEAKER_00: Um, obviously you know I went missing for a week.
- 0:10SPEAKER_00: If you tune in to the podcast on a weekly basis, I missed last week.
- 0:19SPEAKER_00: And I'm always over here stressing, uh not stressing, um what's the word?
- 0:31SPEAKER_00: What's the word?
- 0:32SPEAKER_00: I'm forgetting the word.
- 0:34SPEAKER_00: Sorry guys, I don't English.
- 0:39SPEAKER_00: Um I'm always talking about consistency.
- 0:44SPEAKER_00: Consistency, consistency.
- 0:47SPEAKER_00: And I am a very consistent person, especially in the gym, and I feel like my consistency in the gym has transcended and evolved into other areas of my life.
- 1:03SPEAKER_00: Definitely, definitely.
- 1:05SPEAKER_00: The podcast is one of them.
- 1:08SPEAKER_00: But I will say, as of late for that this past week, and what I imagine will probably be the next few weeks as well.
- 1:24SPEAKER_00: Um, I am gonna give myself a little break from being so consistent with the podcast.
- 1:36SPEAKER_00: Maybe we'll see.
- 1:37SPEAKER_00: Maybe I can make it work because I do genuinely really, really love the podcast.
- 1:45SPEAKER_00: But just so that you're aware, I am working very, very, very, very hard that the reason why I didn't record an episode last week is because I am stretched kind of thin right now, honestly.
- 2:03SPEAKER_00: To be to be super super honest with you.
- 2:06SPEAKER_00: I am stretched a little thin, and there's just other things that have more priority in my business right now.
- 2:16SPEAKER_00: I have clients that I'm working with, new clients that are coming into the program.
- 2:22SPEAKER_00: I am restructuring things in my business as well, and that takes a lot of time, a lot of time.
- 2:33SPEAKER_00: Um, I'm restructuring the way that I do content, and yeah, just trying to be more me in my brand, in my business, in my content, because to be quite honest with you, I feel like I have been playing it small, and I have just been kind of in my comfort zone, to be honest, with the way that I show up online.
- 3:10SPEAKER_00: I've been a little too in my comfort zone.
- 3:14SPEAKER_00: Yes, I show up consistently, but I know that I can definitely push myself further.
- 3:23SPEAKER_00: And by further, I don't necessarily mean being more consistent, being posting more than I already post now.
- 3:31SPEAKER_00: That's not at all what I mean.
- 3:33SPEAKER_00: What I mean is being more open, being more myself online, and not being afraid to challenge people, or not being afraid to challenge certain ideas.
- 3:52SPEAKER_00: I am not gonna lie, I feel like I have a very smart brain, um, if you will, or I feel like I do have a unique perspective on certain things, and I just want to share that side of me more online.
- 4:15SPEAKER_00: So I decided that I'm gonna stop playing small, I'm gonna stop hiding, I'm gonna stop being in my comfort zone, and I'm gonna start pushing myself to say what I really think, challenge ideas, be myself.
- 4:35SPEAKER_00: I I feel like in real life I'm a very funny person, and I just want to show more of that side of me.
- 4:46SPEAKER_00: So alongside with restructuring content to fit a little bit more me, I would say, I'm also restructuring things in my business, and it's just taking a lot out of me, like a lot of time, a lot of energy, but I'm honestly really loving the process, so I almost don't really care how much time it's taking, if that makes any sense.
- 5:18SPEAKER_00: Like, if you follow me on social media, for example, this week I have not been as present on my stories and stuff.
- 5:31SPEAKER_00: I'm always posting on my stories, like every single day.
- 5:35SPEAKER_00: Um, every single weekday at least.
- 5:37SPEAKER_00: I do take my weekends off from posting.
- 5:40SPEAKER_00: Um, but I haven't really posted much of myself this week on stories or what I'm doing or any kind of coaching stuff on my stories, right?
- 5:55SPEAKER_00: And it almost makes me feel guilty because I'm like, oh, I'm not showing up online.
- 6:01SPEAKER_00: Um, you know, just getting in my head about it.
- 6:05SPEAKER_00: But then I'm also like, girl, like you are literally restructuring things right now.
- 6:09SPEAKER_00: Like you're trying to make your business stronger and more helpful for people, for clients.
- 6:17SPEAKER_00: So if I don't show up for like two or three days on my stories, it's okay.
- 6:23SPEAKER_00: Like you're still doing amazing work.
- 6:26SPEAKER_00: Um, but you know, I also miss talking to you guys, so I just do really feel bad.
- 6:34SPEAKER_00: But I'm just learning to deal with the fact that I don't have enough hours in a day to do everything.
- 6:42SPEAKER_00: It sucks because I feel like I give myself such a long to-do list of things that I have to do that day, and then I only get through like half of them, and then I feel like crap because I didn't get everything done.
- 6:53SPEAKER_00: But then it's like, girl, look at all the things you did complete.
- 6:58SPEAKER_00: Like, that's some great shit.
- 7:02SPEAKER_00: Anyways, I'm sure you probably have felt this too.
- 7:07SPEAKER_00: If you've been wondering where I'm at, just know I am still behind the scenes helping clients and deep into restructuring work with content, with business, and with myself too, with my own like personal development and my own personal life.
- 7:30SPEAKER_00: All of this to tell you that I'm done with playing small, and things are gonna change around here.
- 7:40SPEAKER_00: Things are gonna get louder, things are gonna get more fun, and we're gonna grow.
- 7:47SPEAKER_00: And I hope you're here with me throughout that journey.
- 7:52SPEAKER_00: We are building and we are growing, and I'm so excited.
- 7:58SPEAKER_00: I'm going to try to keep up with the podcast schedule as much as I can.
- 8:03SPEAKER_00: If you consistently listen to the podcast every week, then you know that I post one podcast episode once a week on Thursdays in the morning.
- 8:14SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna try my best to keep to that schedule.
- 8:18SPEAKER_00: But if not, my plan B is to at least post a new episode every other week.
- 8:26SPEAKER_00: Okay, so just know that if for some reason I can't stay with my once-a-week schedule, there will be another episode the following week.
- 8:38SPEAKER_00: This is just temporary while we are growing and focusing on the things that take a little bit more priority for the moment, but you know that just happens.
- 8:51SPEAKER_00: Sometimes you go through seasons where you have to prioritize some things over others, and right now, this is it for me.
- 9:00SPEAKER_00: I hope you stick along for the journey.
- 9:03SPEAKER_00: I'm so, so, so excited.
- 9:05SPEAKER_00: And yeah, I hope you guys have a great rest of your week, and I'll see you in the next episode.
