• 0:46
  I'm the founder of Riley Beatty Sports Nutrition.
• 0:48
  We like to call it around here, our BSN.
• 0:50
  We're super. Excited to talk with y'all
• 0:51
  today. On today's episode, instead of
• 0:53
  starting off by sharing our high and low, we just wanted to come
• 0:55
  on here and just tell you all how thankful we are for you for
• 0:59
  listening and supporting the Eat More Carbs podcast this past
• 1:02
  year. Today's episode, we're kind of
• 1:03
  sharing like a recap of our year.
• 1:04
  So we didn't necessarily want to do our high and low and our high
• 1:07
  and low from the year, but Riley and I still wanted to just say
• 1:09
  thank you to all of you for listening, supporting, sharing
• 1:12
  the podcast, and being here with us while we talk about sports
• 1:15
  nutrition for the girlies. We love you so much.
• 1:17
  Thanks again for joining us on today's episode.
• 1:19
  We're going to do things a little bit differently because
• 1:21
  it is Christmas. So Merry Christmas, happy
• 1:24
  holidays, we're hope you're enjoying your day.
• 1:25
  Today we're going to do something quite a bit different
• 1:27
  from what we usually do on the Eat More Carbs podcast.
• 1:30
  We have myself, Riley, and Lily here today, and we're going to
• 1:34
  share the highlight from 2025 because this is technically our
• 1:38
  last episode of 2025, if you can believe it.
• 1:42
  Can't believe it. What's happening?
• 1:43
  Really crazy, Yeah. I don't know about you guys, but
• 1:45
  I feel like time is flying. I had an appointment this
• 1:47
  morning and I had to book for three months out and it's the
• 1:49
  middle of February of 2026. Yeah, that's crazy.
• 1:53
  I'm about to have to go to the dentist again.
• 1:54
  Like I go to the dentist 2 * a year.
• 1:57
  I'm like how can that be? How is it already time to go to
• 1:59
  the dentist again? You're not ready for this
• 2:00
  because in a couple weeks chart is 2.
• 2:02
  No, no she's not. Crazy, crazy.
• 2:05
  It's also Jenna's birthday, but Jenna is also going to be two.
• 2:08
  Also 2. We're going backwards from now
• 2:10
  on. Yes, I'm counting down for sure.
• 2:12
  I'm going to Benjamin Button this.
• 2:14
  OK, who wants to start with highlight of the year?
• 2:17
  I want to go last. OK, Lily, then you have to go.
• 2:19
  First Lily. Lily.
• 2:21
  So many highs. You had a big year.
• 2:24
  I had a. Really big year, so.
• 2:26
  Tell us a couple. OK, I'll give top three because
• 2:30
  this year just overall, lots of changes for me, but it's
• 2:34
  definitely been the best year yet.
• 2:36
  So top three, I would say. I graduated college, thank
• 2:40
  goodness. Don't have to go back for the
• 2:43
  foreseeable future. Get to do all kinds of other
• 2:45
  things that are fun. Second, I got a job with RBSN.
• 2:50
  Yeah, a little background. I had been interning with RBSN
• 2:54
  since I was a sophomore in college, so it was three years
• 2:59
  before I in the team. And so it just was a goal and
• 3:03
  dream of mine to do this. So I'm very thankful to be here.
• 3:06
  And last, probably the best last is that I did get engaged
• 3:12
  getting married next year. So just doing all the wedding
• 3:16
  planning things is really fun and being able to kind of start
• 3:21
  this new phase of life. I feel like with post grad and
• 3:24
  ending school, starting job, getting married, I'm just doing
• 3:27
  all the things all at once. You are doing all the things,
• 3:29
  but there's also many like fun and exciting and good things.
• 3:33
  Yes, I keep myself on my toes. All the time.
• 3:36
  We also love you, so we're so excited that you decided to
• 3:39
  stick around with with us. I'm excited you guys kept me, so
• 3:43
  yes. Everyone.
• 3:44
  She stayed on her own free will. We didn't force her.
• 3:47
  They didn't pay me to say my high was RBS.
• 3:50
  Head, we bullied her, we said OK Lily you get 3 things, no
• 3:54
  pressure. I love all of those though.
• 3:55
  Do you have something that you are?
• 3:57
  Look, obviously your wedding in 2026, but is there anything that
• 4:01
  like you're looking forward to or trend you're like excited
• 4:04
  about for 2020? Six.
• 4:05
  I'm running my first half marathon in March, so I am
• 4:09
  excited for that kind of just changing what training style
• 4:12
  I've been doing for a really long time.
• 4:14
  I used to run, but it was mainly as like a supplement to strength
• 4:18
  training. Of course I'm still going to
• 4:19
  strength train, but it's more running and strength training
• 4:22
  instead of strength training and running.
• 4:23
  So I'm very excited for that change and I just also have a
• 4:26
  lot of events coming up where I get to see friends and family
• 4:29
  that live across the country, and so I'm excited for a lot of
• 4:32
  quality time in 2026. I love it.
• 4:35
  What are you asking for for Christmas?
• 4:36
  I'm. Running shoes.
• 4:37
  Heck yeah, best answer. Also like to say that we did not
• 4:40
  bully Lily into running a half marathon.
• 4:42
  She did not have to do that. She also did that on her own
• 4:45
  free will. Yes, RBSN has not taken me
• 4:48
  captive guys, I promise. Poor Lily.
• 4:51
  I'm dead, you just become RBSN. It's my whole personality and
• 4:55
  I'm fully accepting it. I'm OK with it.
• 4:57
  Same. Sorry.
• 4:58
  We love it here. Riley had a theme song for 2025.
• 5:01
  It would be It's Me. We love you guys.
• 5:04
  I'm going to take back what my my win of 2025.
• 5:07
  Is from you. Both of you.
• 5:10
  Oh man, I love all of that. Jenna, what's yours?
• 5:12
  Man, OK, I think this year challenged me in a lot of ways,
• 5:15
  and I think that was really good for me because growth never
• 5:19
  happens when you're comfortable. And even though I'm not going to
• 5:22
  share like the specifics of the things that did challenge me, I
• 5:26
  think that I might like win or my biggest take away or like the
• 5:28
  thing that I'm most thankful for is just like learning that in
• 5:32
  life's most challenging moments that I can get through them.
• 5:35
  That has a lot to do with like the support and the people
• 5:37
  around me. And I'm so thankful for
• 5:39
  everyone. And I just feel like my entire
• 5:41
  year is like I have so many people to thank, like you, both
• 5:44
  of you included for helping me through tough times, encouraging
• 5:47
  me through the highs, the lows. And I feel like overall like
• 5:51
  such a Goodyear of just like personal growth.
• 5:53
  And I'm super excited about that.
• 5:55
  If I had to put like one thing like very materialistic that I'm
• 5:58
  super excited about from 20, 25, my husband and Abaya bought our
• 6:01
  first house, which was like a very big milestone for us.
• 6:03
  That's amazing. That's definitely a big, like, a
• 6:06
  big win for both of us from me, I guess, life standpoint.
• 6:10
  And we have our little home that we get to make ours.
• 6:13
  And that's super fun. And it still doesn't have
• 6:15
  furniture and all of it almost a year later.
• 6:17
  But that's part of being a homeowner and filling the home
• 6:19
  with things that you love, not just things that you find.
• 6:21
  And you have a pool. I do, yeah.
• 6:23
  But you have to. It's like in a requirement in
• 6:25
  Arizona, like you can't not. I'm so jealous.
• 6:27
  I cannot believe that you bought your house in 2025.
• 6:30
  I felt like you've lived there for three years.
• 6:31
  I know, right? Isn't that crazy?
• 6:33
  There's January 2025, right? Yeah, it was like right after my
• 6:36
  birthday. What a great birthday.
• 6:37
  I don't know how Nolan's gonna top that.
• 6:39
  Best of luck. OK, guys, I'm really excited
• 6:41
  about this. So there's lots of things I feel
• 6:43
  like that were really great this year and I want to share like, I
• 6:46
  don't know, it's just I think it's really hard when you like
• 6:48
  look back because some days are so hard.
• 6:51
  But then like overall it's been like such a good year.
• 6:53
  I feel like it's been really good for all of us.
• 6:55
  So really thankful with that. I think we've had a really great
• 6:58
  year at RBSN, right? There's so many people that
• 7:01
  we've been able to touch and help and all of that stuff.
• 7:03
  And I do think we've had growth personally, professionally, like
• 7:07
  even as a team. And something that I've been
• 7:09
  doing every single month is I've been putting away money so that
• 7:13
  we can go on a trip in 2026. We don't have a lot guys, but we
• 7:16
  have a little bit of money that we can do an off site trip as a
• 7:19
  little group. So we can do like a two or three
• 7:22
  day like work trip as a company. Wait, Riley, this is so sweet,
• 7:26
  Oh my God. We don't have a lot, guys.
• 7:28
  We're not million, but we can do a little company trip in 2026.
• 7:34
  One, I am so excited because we've never actually, all three
• 7:38
  of us been physically together. I know that sounds crazy, but
• 7:40
  like that's what we're so thankful about, like the virtual
• 7:42
  world because I love you guys so much.
• 7:44
  So I'm so excited. So we can do like also.
• 7:47
  Are we gonna run a race too? We might as well.
• 7:49
  The thing is is I don't want to force Lily to run a race, but we
• 7:53
  can do like we can find something.
• 7:54
  She did, she did, but she already has a plan.
• 7:57
  But we can do like a little team off site to go in 2020.
• 8:00
  Six my gosh, you guys, I'm so. Excited it's like all together,
• 8:04
  like it's like I think it's like AI would say like it's a win for
• 8:08
  2026 obviously, but because of everybody's like hard work in
• 8:11
  2025. So proud of you guys.
• 8:13
  Good job team, proud of us. Merry Christmas.
• 8:15
  You're so excited. Yeah.
• 8:16
  And it's not, it's not crazy, but like, I know like at least
• 8:19
  Jenna and I have always been talking about like doing
• 8:21
  something and we can get pictures and we can do all of
• 8:23
  that stuff. So yay for 2026.
• 8:25
  Yay for 2026. I'm so excited.
• 8:28
  Yeah, because in 24 you have to brain to be Goodyear.
• 8:30
  Yes, so if you are listening and you have ideas for our lovely
• 8:34
  trip or off site or race, please let us know.
• 8:36
  We'll bring our microphones so we can podcast.
• 8:39
  Yes, Yep. That's it.
• 8:40
  I'm super proud of everyone here that we've worked with that have
• 8:45
  been a part of our BSN who have been guests on our podcast who
• 8:47
  have just made an impact on us. So thank you to everybody.
