• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Emily Abadi here, you are listening to the
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Last five Minute Friday of twenty twenty four. I can't
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: believe I've even saying this, But next week the show
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: goes on a two week season break, so we will
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: be back in full force with a special limited series
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: on January first to help you start off the new
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: year right. But until then, I'm taking a little bit
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: of a well deserved break. So yeah, Last five Minute
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Friday of twenty twenty four. Like many of you, I
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: am in like full reflection mode, and I've been scrolling
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: through the photos of the year and reading through my
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: journal of this year, and I'm feeling really proud of
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: what I have done, who I'm becoming, and I'm getting
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: very clear in this time that I am still here
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: at home over the next couple of weeks, in this
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: little season break, on what I want to do in
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: twenty five and transparently, I think this is the longest
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that I have gone without traveling in years, And as
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: unsettling as it feels at times, I know that this
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: is happening for a reason. And so as I'm sitting
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: here and I'm reflecting on what it is that i
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: want in twenty twenty five. I know that I don't
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: want to be forced to have the moments that I'm
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: having right now. I know that I want to get
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: a little bit more intentional about really listening to what's
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: going on instead of masking it with all of this travel.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: And I know that I want to set clear and
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: realistic goals going into new Year that really home in
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: on my why that really matter to me. And this
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: is the most common thing I tell people when it
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: comes to goal setting is you cannot set a goal
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: that does not have a strong why. Period. You cannot
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: set a goal that doesn't have a strong why, because
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I will tell you what happens when you do that
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: is that you're not going to follow through. And so
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: when you're thinking about the things that you want to
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: achieve in the next three sixty five, I encourage you
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: to ask yourself what matters to me? What are my values?
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Who do I want to become? And am I acting
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: in a way that makes that version of myself proud? Okay?
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: For me personally, I really really really really want twenty
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: twenty six probably to be the year that I buy
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: a home, which means that twenty twenty five goals for
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: me have a lot to do with finances, have a
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: lot to do with budgeting, have a lot to do
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: with spreading myself in ways that maybe I haven't tried before,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: desiring a different outcome, knowing that if nothing changes, nothing changes.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: And it feels a little scary jumping into the unknown,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: but it also feels really purposeful for me because I
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: have a strong why. And so on this last five
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: minute Friday of twenty twenty four, I want to ask
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: you what is it that you want to achieve in
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty five and what is one thing you're proud
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: of yourself for doing in twenty twenty four? What is
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: one thing that you want to achieve in twenty twenty five,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: and what is one thing that you are proud of
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: yourself for doing in twenty twenty four? And now a
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: listener question. Hey Emily, I love Hurdle. It's been my
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: go to podcast for years through a lot of transitions
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: in my life. Thank you for all that you do.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: My question is do you have any favorite hair products
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: for preventing greasiness after running or working out? I exercise
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: something like five days a week and I tend to
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: get really sweaty. I've been in the habit of washing
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: my hair almost every day because of this, and I'm
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: hoping to find products to help decrease how often I
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: wash without altering my workouts. Thank you so much, we
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: love this question. I absolutely swear swear. Swear swear. Buy
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the R and Co. Dry shampoo. It's called Death Valley.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: I will link it in the show notes. I like
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: you work out a lot, and I don't wash my
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: hair every day, I will wet it most days. So
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: while I won't shampoo every day, I'll wet it a
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: lot of days. And what I learned from my hairstylist
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: at the salon was that I should not be putting
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: it back into a low bun wet, so a lot
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: of the time I will either put dry shampoo in
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: it and let it air dry, or I'll rinse it
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: and then do like a quick light rough blow dry.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: And that way I can avoid keep styling my hair
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: all the time and also make sure I am fresh
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: and clean to go about all of the things that
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I want to do. So while it might not be,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: you know, the most attractive thing, just to go dry
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: shampoo after a workout, I would say that I probably
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: do that two days a week. I probably wash my
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: hair three days a week, and the rest of it
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: is kind of a hodgepodge let's see how we can
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: get by kind of situation. But yeah, that one dry
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: shampoo is my go to. I absolutely love it and
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: just trying to let it air dry or avoid heat
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: styling as much as possible. That's it for this week again,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: so grateful for all of the hurdlers, for all of
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: your support. In twenty twenty four. We will be back
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: victoriously on January first with season Oh my god, seventeen
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: eight years of hurdle absolutely wild, another hurdle conquered. Catch
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: you guys next time.
