• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, Emily a body here.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: You are listening to five minute Friday from Hurdle Bonjour.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: I feel like I could say that with a better accent,
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: but you get the point. I am recording this from Paris.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: I'm excited because last night akaa to night in real time.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: But as you listened to this last night, I'm here
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: for breaking four faith Kip Jiegan is going to break
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: the four minute mile, at least she's attempting to do
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: that here in Paris. And that is why I'm here.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: And it feels so good to be back. It feels
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: so good to be back, and it has me asking
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: myself so many questions.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Not why do I live in New York City?
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: But what is it about the way that I feel
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: that I'm here that is something I can replicate back
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: at home. Because don't get me wrong, I absolutely love
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: living in New York.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I feel like it is so right for me.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: But there is this curiosity and excitement and a level
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: of contentment that I have when I come to Paris
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: that I want to bring into my life in New York,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: and so I'm.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Curious about how to do that. I digress.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: That is not the purpose of today's episode to talk
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: to you about this. Although it is something that's on
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: my mind, the purpose of today's episode is to talk
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: to you about something that I am trying to be
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: better about, and that is going out of my car
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: comfort zone when I am in large groups of people.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: So although I am always down to chat and I
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: am someone that loves to connect with new people, I
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: am realizing that when I am in a large group,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: I might not be the first person to go up
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: to other individuals.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: And this was highlighted for me.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: When I was chatting with a good friend yesterday and
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: she asked me, have you met anyone new yet on
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: your trip? And although yes, I've met some new people,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: I didn't have any information to give her on them
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: aside from maybe where they worked.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: And it is, I.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Think, something that is really good, beautiful fun to be
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: an inquisitive person. I would consider myself an inquisitive person,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: but I think that there is a benefit to becoming
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: more invested in the people that I am meeting in
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: my day to day. I don't know if this sounds weird,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know how it's coming off, but I believe
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: that by opening myself more up to the people that
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: I'm coming into contact with. By asking more questions, I
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: have the ability to then learn more from the people
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: that I am surrounded by. And that's the whole point, right,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: The whole point is if I'm going to be going
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: out and having experiences, whether they are work related or
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: just for fun, why not reap the most out of
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: that situation. Why not benefit from the people that are
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: around me? And so that's something I'm working on. That's
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: something that I am going to be conscious of in
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: the weeks, months and more to come. How can I really,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: besides putting my phone away, be where my feet are
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: and candidly, I think that's going to require me to
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: get a little uncomfortable, right. I have never sat down
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: with someone that was naturally inquisitive about me and thought
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: that it was too much. Of course, I'm sure there
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: is a way that it could be that way, but
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: I just want to.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Be a bit more excited.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know if this is a weird thing to
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: talk about, but it's something that's on my mind and
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: it's something that I am bringing to you today for
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: five Minute Friday. I'm curious again, as I talk about
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: being inquisitive, is this something that you all have ever
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: wondered thought about, uh and bigger than that, I guess
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: My listener prompt for you this week is what is
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: something that you yourself are working on right now? What
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: is something that you are working on right now to
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: be better at, to be more conscious of you get
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: the vibes and now a listener question. Hey, Emily, I
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: always really appreciate you sharing your updates with us when
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: you're on the road. I'm curious about the routines that
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: you spoke of last week in your newsletter. What is
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: one of your non negotiable daily routines and how did
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: it come to be that way? Thanks so much for
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: showing up regularly on social media. You have no idea
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: how much inspiration I garner from it on the regular. Okay,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: what is one of my daily non negotiable routines for
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: me lately? And this is one that is relatively new
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: to the mix. It's taking my supplements. So I've always been,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: or at least for recent memory, I take AG one daily,
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: but I've also recently started enjoying creatine, collagen and element
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: lemonade in a shaker bottle. This is something that I
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: am determined not to slack on because I've seen some
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: really great.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Benefits so far.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: So I'm seeing muscle definition that I've never had before,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: which feels really exciting. And overall, I think I believe
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: that it's really helping with my recovery. So that's a
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: routine that's a non negotiable, regardless of where I might be.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: And then also morning movement.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Now, I might not be able to do the workout
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: that I'm hoping to do every single day. For instance,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: yesterday I didn't do the strength workout that I wanted
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: to do, but I did go on a run with
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: some friends. So with that said, whether it's a run
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: or a strength workout or even just getting out to
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: walk around the block, some sort of morning movement is
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: an absolute non negotiable for my day to day. It
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: could be something like ten or twenty minutes, and other
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: days it could be an hour or more depending on
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: what's on deck. You get the picture that morning movement
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: is my opportunity to give back to myself and I
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: believe that it is truly.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: A form of self care. That's it for now.
• 6:38
