  I'm

  doing
• 0:46
  as
• 0:46
  well
• 0:46
  as
• 0:46
  can
• 0:47
  be
• 0:47
  expected.
• 0:47
  Sort
• 0:48
  of
• 0:48
  how
• 0:48
  it
• 0:48
  feels
• 0:48
  right
• 0:49
  now.
• 0:49
  Yeah,
• 0:50
  yeah,
• 0:51
  same.
• 0:51
  I
• 0:52
  mean
• 0:52
  it.
• 0:53
  Things
• 0:54
  feel
• 0:54
  a
• 0:54
  little
• 0:54
  overwhelming.
• 0:56
  Yeah,
• 0:57
  I
• 0:57
  feel
• 0:57
  like
• 0:58
  my
• 0:58
  nervous
• 0:58
  system
• 0:59
  is
• 1:00
  maxed
• 1:01
  out
• 1:01
  or
• 1:01
  something
• 1:02
  when
• 1:02
  I'm
• 1:02
  just
• 1:04
  looking
• 1:05
  at
• 1:05
  what's
• 1:05
  going
• 1:05
  on
• 1:06
  around
• 1:07
  the
• 1:07
  world
• 1:08
  and
• 1:08
  so
• 1:08
  forth.
• 1:10
  Yeah.
• 1:10
  It's
• 1:10
  funny
• 1:11
  because
• 1:12
  I
• 1:13
  haven't
• 1:14
  been
• 1:15
  factoring
• 1:15
  that
• 1:16
  in
• 1:16
  with,
• 1:17
  with
• 1:17
  some
• 1:17
  of
• 1:17
  the
• 1:17
  things
• 1:17
  I've
• 1:18
  been
• 1:18
  dealing
• 1:18
  with.
• 1:18
  And
• 1:18
  I've
• 1:19
  sort
• 1:19
  of
• 1:19
  been
• 1:20
  blaming
• 1:21
  low
• 1:22
  energy,
• 1:23
  you
• 1:23
  know,
• 1:23
  a
• 1:23
  feeling
• 1:24
  of
• 1:24
  overwhelm
• 1:24
  and
• 1:25
  stuff
• 1:25
  on
• 1:25
  this
• 1:26
  ongoing
• 1:27
  four
• 1:27
  month
• 1:27
  saga
• 1:28
  that
• 1:28
  I've
• 1:28
  been
• 1:28
  dealing
• 1:29
  with
• 1:29
  shoulder
• 1:30
  surgery
• 1:30
  and,
• 1:32
  you
• 1:32
  know,
• 1:32
  sort
• 1:32
  of
• 1:32
  ongoing
• 1:33
  pain
• 1:33
  and
• 1:34
  sleep
• 1:35
  issues
• 1:35
  and
• 1:35
  stuff.
• 1:36
  And
• 1:37
  I
• 1:37
  think
• 1:39
  it
• 1:39
  would
• 1:39
  be
• 1:40
  wise
• 1:40
  for
• 1:40
  me
• 1:40
  to
• 1:41
  recognize
• 1:42
  that,
• 1:43
  that,
• 1:43
  that
• 1:44
  what's
• 1:45
  happening
• 1:45
  in
• 1:45
  the
• 1:46
  world
• 1:46
  around
• 1:47
  me,
• 1:47
  around
• 1:47
  us,
• 1:48
  is
• 1:48
  certainly
• 1:49
  a
• 1:49
  factor.
• 1:51
  Right.
• 1:51
  Yeah,
• 1:52
  I
• 1:52
  feel
• 1:53
  same.
• 1:53
  The
• 1:53
  same.
• 1:53
  Like
• 1:54
  I've
• 1:54
  got
• 1:54
  this
• 1:54
  work
• 1:54
  stuff
• 1:55
  going
• 1:55
  on
• 1:55
  that's
• 1:55
  fine,
• 1:56
  but
• 1:56
  just
• 1:57
  sort
• 1:57
  of
• 1:57
  stress
• 1:57
  inducing
• 1:59
  and
• 1:59
  so
• 1:59
  I'm
• 2:00
  having
• 2:00
  trouble
• 2:00
  living
• 2:01
  my
• 2:01
  word
• 2:01
  of
• 2:01
  the
• 2:01
  year
• 2:02
  and
• 2:02
  joy.
• 2:04
  But
• 2:04
  yeah,
• 2:05
  layering
• 2:05
  on
• 2:06
  top
• 2:06
  of
• 2:06
  that
• 2:06
  is
• 2:07
  this
• 2:08
  ongoing
• 2:08
  stress.
• 2:09
  This.
• 2:09
  That's
• 2:09
  omnipresent,
• 2:10
  has
• 2:10
  been
• 2:11
  for
• 2:11
  a
• 2:11
  while,
• 2:11
  but
• 2:11
  has
• 2:12
  just
• 2:12
  really
• 2:12
  gotten
• 2:13
  bad
• 2:13
  in
• 2:13
  the
• 2:13
  last
• 2:13
  couple
• 2:13
  of
• 2:13
  weeks.
• 2:15
  For
• 2:15
  me,
• 2:15
  anyway.
• 2:15
  No,
• 2:16
  I
• 2:16
  think
• 2:16
  just
• 2:17
  objectively.
• 2:18
  And
• 2:19
  so,
• 2:20
  yeah,
• 2:20
  I
• 2:21
  want
• 2:21
  to
• 2:21
  cut
• 2:21
  myself
• 2:21
  a
• 2:22
  lot
• 2:22
  of
• 2:22
  slack.
• 2:22
  I
• 2:22
  want
• 2:22
  to,
• 2:23
  as
• 2:23
  you
• 2:23
  say,
• 2:23
  sort
• 2:23
  of
• 2:23
  factor
• 2:24
  that
• 2:24
  in
• 2:24
  and
• 2:24
  thinking
• 2:25
  about
• 2:26
  how
• 2:26
  I'm
• 2:26
  doing
• 2:26
  and
• 2:27
  how
• 2:27
  I
• 2:28
  can,
• 2:29
  I
• 2:29
  don't
• 2:29
  know,
• 2:30
  be
• 2:30
  kinder
• 2:31
  to
• 2:31
  myself
• 2:31
  or
• 2:32
  regulate
• 2:33
  my
• 2:34
  expectations
• 2:35
  for
• 2:36
  myself,
• 2:36
  my
• 2:37
  what
• 2:37
  I
• 2:37
  can
• 2:37
  accomplish
• 2:38
  and
• 2:38
  so
• 2:38
  forth.
• 2:38
  There's
• 2:38
  a
• 2:38
  lot
• 2:39
  of.
• 2:39
  I
• 2:39
  feel
• 2:39
  like
• 2:39
  there's
• 2:39
  a
• 2:40
  lot
• 2:40
  of
• 2:40
  tentacles
• 2:41
  to
• 2:41
  this.
• 2:43
  Yeah,
• 2:44
  yeah,
• 2:44
  there.
• 2:45
  There
• 2:45
  really
• 2:46
  are.
• 2:46
  And
• 2:49
  I
• 2:49
  feel
• 2:49
  like
• 2:51
  it's
• 2:51
  good
• 2:52
  to
• 2:52
  remember
• 2:53
  that,
• 2:53
  you
• 2:53
  know,
• 2:53
  while
• 2:54
  you
• 2:55
  normally
• 2:55
  have
• 2:55
  a
• 2:56
  certain
• 2:56
  amount
• 2:56
  of
• 2:57
  capacity
• 2:57
  or
• 2:58
  bandwidth
• 2:59
  to
• 3:00
  get
• 3:00
  things
• 3:01
  done
• 3:01
  to,
• 3:02
  you
• 3:03
  know,
• 3:03
  sort
• 3:03
  of
• 3:03
  go
• 3:04
  about
• 3:04
  your
• 3:04
  life,
• 3:05
  that
• 3:06
  all
• 3:07
  of
• 3:07
  this
• 3:07
  external
• 3:08
  stuff
• 3:08
  can
• 3:10
  compress
• 3:10
  that
• 3:11
  or
• 3:11
  take
• 3:11
  part
• 3:12
  of
• 3:12
  your
• 3:12
  capacity
• 3:13
  or
• 3:13
  bandwidth.
• 3:14
  Like
• 3:14
  it
• 3:14
  takes
• 3:15
  some
• 3:16
  energy.
• 3:17
  Like
• 3:17
  I'm
• 3:18
  not
• 3:18
  living
• 3:19
  in.
• 3:19
  I
• 3:19
  don't
• 3:19
  think
• 3:19
  you're
• 3:20
  living
• 3:20
  in
• 3:20
  a
• 3:20
  situation
• 3:21
  right
• 3:21
  now
• 3:22
  where
• 3:23
  you
• 3:24
  are
• 3:25
  actively
• 3:27
  threatened
• 3:28
  or,
• 3:29
  you
• 3:29
  know,
• 3:29
  feeling
• 3:29
  threatened
• 3:30
  by
• 3:31
  the
• 3:31
  political
• 3:31
  environment
• 3:32
  or
• 3:32
  anything.
• 3:34
  And
• 3:35
  yet
• 3:36
  there's
• 3:36
  a
• 3:37
  certain
• 3:37
  amount
• 3:37
  of
• 3:38
  energy.
• 3:38
  It
• 3:38
  takes
• 3:39
  just
• 3:40
  being
• 3:40
  in
• 3:41
  the
• 3:41
  world
• 3:41
  today.
• 3:42
  Right?
• 3:43
  Yeah.
• 3:43
  I
• 3:43
  feel
• 3:44
  like
• 3:44
  we're
• 3:44
  all
• 3:45
  being
• 3:45
  threatened
• 3:46
  and
• 3:46
  people
• 3:46
  in
• 3:47
  certain
• 3:47
  cities
• 3:47
  are
• 3:48
  being
• 3:48
  physically
• 3:49
  threatened
• 3:50
  as
• 3:50
  well.
• 3:50
  Yes.
• 3:51
  Yeah.
• 3:51
  And
• 3:53
  you're
• 3:53
  right.
• 3:53
  It
• 3:54
  just
• 3:54
  takes
• 3:54
  up.
• 3:55
  Takes
• 3:55
  up
• 3:55
  energy.
• 3:56
  I,
• 3:56
  you
• 3:56
  know,
• 3:57
  sometimes
• 3:58
  I
• 3:58
  think,
• 3:58
  oh,
• 3:59
  I'm
• 3:59
  just
• 3:59
  not
• 3:59
  going
• 3:59
  to
• 3:59
  think
• 3:59
  about
• 3:59
  it.
• 4:01
  But
• 4:02
  it's
• 4:02
  hard
• 4:02
  not
• 4:03
  to
• 4:03
  think
• 4:03
  about
• 4:03
  it.
• 4:03
  A
• 4:04
  and
• 4:04
  B,
• 4:04
  I
• 4:04
  feel
• 4:04
  like
• 4:05
  as
• 4:05
  a
• 4:05
  citizen
• 4:06
  I
• 4:06
  need
• 4:06
  to
• 4:06
  be
• 4:06
  informed
• 4:08
  and
• 4:08
  there's
• 4:09
  so
• 4:09
  much
• 4:09
  happening
• 4:10
  every
• 4:10
  single
• 4:10
  day
• 4:11
  that
• 4:12
  I
• 4:12
  have
• 4:12
  to
• 4:12
  at
• 4:13
  least
• 4:13
  drop
• 4:13
  in
• 4:13
  on
• 4:14
  the
• 4:14
  news.
• 4:14
  I'm
• 4:15
  trying
• 4:15
  to
• 4:15
  figure
• 4:16
  out
• 4:16
  a
• 4:16
  way
• 4:16
  to
• 4:17
  not
• 4:18
  get
• 4:18
  too
• 4:18
  caught
• 4:19
  up
• 4:19
  in
• 4:19
  it
• 4:19
  and
• 4:19
  still
• 4:20
  be
• 4:20
  an
• 4:20
  informed
• 4:21
  citizen.
• 4:23
  Right.
• 4:23
  And
• 4:23
  I
• 4:24
  don't
• 4:24
  have
• 4:24
  conversations
• 4:25
  with
• 4:25
  people
• 4:26
  about
• 4:26
  it
• 4:26
  much.
• 4:27
  I
• 4:27
  mean,
• 4:27
  thankfully,
• 4:28
  like
• 4:29
  most
• 4:30
  people
• 4:30
  I
• 4:30
  talk
• 4:30
  to
• 4:31
  agree
• 4:31
  with
• 4:31
  my
• 4:31
  viewpoints
• 4:32
  and
• 4:32
  so
• 4:32
  I'm
• 4:32
  not
• 4:32
  arguing
• 4:33
  with
• 4:33
  anybody.
• 4:33
  But
• 4:34
  also,
• 4:34
  we
• 4:34
  don't
• 4:35
  rag
• 4:35
  on
• 4:35
  it
• 4:35
  because
• 4:36
  we
• 4:36
  know
• 4:36
  it
• 4:36
  stresses
• 4:37
  us
• 4:38
  out.
• 4:39
  Right.
• 4:40
  But
• 4:40
  sometimes
• 4:41
  those
• 4:41
  conversational
• 4:43
  boundaries
• 4:43
  could
• 4:44
  be
• 4:44
  really
• 4:44
  important.
• 4:46
  Yeah,
• 4:47
  I
• 4:47
  think
• 4:47
  so.
• 4:48
  I
• 4:48
  totally
• 4:49
  agree.
• 4:49
  I,
• 4:52
  I
• 4:52
  think
• 4:53
  boundaries
• 4:54
  is
• 4:54
  really
• 4:54
  the
• 4:55
  key,
• 4:55
  you
• 4:56
  know,
• 4:56
  sort
• 4:56
  of
• 4:57
  being
• 4:58
  boundaries
• 4:59
  and
• 4:59
  following
• 4:59
  them,
• 5:00
  setting
• 5:00
  them
• 5:00
  and
• 5:01
  following
• 5:01
  them
• 5:01
  for
• 5:02
  yourself
• 5:02
  in
• 5:02
  all
• 5:03
  these
• 5:03
  different
• 5:04
  ways,
• 5:04
  you
• 5:04
  know,
• 5:05
  that
• 5:06
  I
• 5:06
  might
• 5:07
  be
• 5:07
  like,
• 5:08
  okay,
• 5:09
  I
• 5:09
  haven't
• 5:09
  been
• 5:09
  paying
• 5:10
  a
• 5:10
  lot
• 5:10
  of
• 5:10
  attention
• 5:11
  to
• 5:11
  the
• 5:11
  news.
• 5:12
  I
• 5:12
  want
• 5:12
  to
• 5:13
  be
• 5:13
  an
• 5:14
  informed
• 5:14
  citizen.
• 5:15
  I
• 5:15
  feel
• 5:15
  like
• 5:15
  I
• 5:16
  need
• 5:16
  to
• 5:16
  check
• 5:16
  in
• 5:16
  on
• 5:16
  what's
• 5:17
  going
• 5:17
  on
• 5:17
  and
• 5:17
  then
• 5:18
  that's
• 5:19
  a
• 5:19
  rabbit
• 5:19
  hole
• 5:20
  that
• 5:20
  just,
• 5:21
  you
• 5:21
  know,
• 5:22
  I
• 5:22
  can
• 5:22
  be
• 5:22
  in
• 5:23
  for
• 5:24
  forever
• 5:25
  thanks
• 5:25
  to
• 5:25
  algorithms
• 5:26
  and
• 5:26
  the
• 5:27
  way
• 5:28
  apps
• 5:28
  and
• 5:28
  things
• 5:29
  work.
• 5:29
  It's
• 5:29
  not
• 5:29
  like
• 5:30
  you
• 5:30
  just
• 5:30
  have
• 5:31
  the
• 5:31
  newspaper
• 5:32
  and
• 5:32
  you're
• 5:32
  limited.
• 5:33
  Right.
• 5:34
  But
• 5:34
  I
• 5:34
  feel
• 5:34
  like
• 5:36
  that
• 5:37
  creating
• 5:37
  some
• 5:38
  sort
• 5:38
  of
• 5:38
  boundaries
• 5:39
  for
• 5:39
  yourself,
• 5:39
  whether
• 5:40
  that
• 5:40
  is,
• 5:41
  you
• 5:41
  know,
• 5:41
  skimming
• 5:42
  the
• 5:42
  headlines
• 5:42
  and
• 5:43
  reading
• 5:43
  one
• 5:44
  article
• 5:45
  or
• 5:47
  setting
• 5:48
  a
• 5:48
  timer
• 5:48
  for
• 5:49
  15
• 5:49
  minutes
• 5:50
  or
• 5:50
  something,
• 5:52
  but
• 5:52
  that
• 5:52
  somehow
• 5:55
  creating
• 5:55
  a
• 5:56
  container
• 5:57
  for
• 5:58
  the
• 5:58
  amount
• 5:59
  of
• 5:59
  news
• 5:59
  that
• 5:59
  you
• 6:00
  take
• 6:01
  in
• 6:01
  would
• 6:01
  be
• 6:01
  really
• 6:02
  helpful.
• 6:03
  Yeah,
• 6:04
  it's
• 6:04
  so
• 6:04
  easy
• 6:05
  to
• 6:06
  just
• 6:07
  doom
• 6:07
  scroll
• 6:08
  and
• 6:08
  so
• 6:08
  easy
• 6:09
  to
• 6:09
  consume
• 6:09
  the
• 6:09
  things
• 6:10
  that
• 6:10
  are
• 6:10
  bombarding,
• 6:11
  being
• 6:11
  bombarded
• 6:12
  by
• 6:14
  it
• 6:14
  just,
• 6:14
  I
• 6:15
  feel
• 6:15
  like
• 6:15
  as
• 6:15
  someone
• 6:15
  with
• 6:16
  a
• 6:16
  certain
• 6:16
  amount
• 6:16
  of
• 6:16
  discipline
• 6:17
  and
• 6:17
  self
• 6:18
  discipline,
• 6:18
  I
• 6:19
  still
• 6:19
  just
• 6:19
  get
• 6:20
  sort
• 6:20
  of
• 6:20
  sucked
• 6:21
  into
• 6:21
  it.
• 6:21
  And
• 6:21
  I
• 6:21
  also,
• 6:22
  I
• 6:22
  like
• 6:22
  the
• 6:23
  enjoyable
• 6:24
  aspects
• 6:24
  of
• 6:24
  social
• 6:24
  media.
• 6:25
  So
• 6:25
  I
• 6:25
  don't
• 6:25
  want
• 6:25
  to
• 6:25
  say,
• 6:25
  okay,
• 6:26
  I'm
• 6:26
  not
• 6:27
  going
• 6:27
  on
• 6:27
  Facebook
• 6:28
  today,
• 6:28
  but
• 6:28
  I
• 6:29
  can
• 6:29
  say,
• 6:29
  okay,
• 6:30
  I'm
• 6:30
  just
• 6:30
  going
• 6:30
  to
• 6:30
  look
• 6:30
  at
• 6:31
  my
• 6:31
  groups
• 6:32
  that
• 6:32
  I,
• 6:32
  you
• 6:32
  know,
• 6:32
  see
• 6:33
  what
• 6:33
  my
• 6:33
  friends
• 6:34
  who
• 6:34
  wear
• 6:34
  wool
• 6:34
  are
• 6:34
  doing.
• 6:36
  Yeah.
• 6:36
  Or
• 6:36
  my
• 6:37
  YNAB
• 6:37
  fans.
• 6:38
  Right.
• 6:39
  I
• 6:39
  like
• 6:39
  reading
• 6:40
  those
• 6:40
  groups,
• 6:41
  but
• 6:41
  yeah.
• 6:41
  Setting
• 6:42
  those
• 6:42
  boundaries,
• 6:42
  I
• 6:42
  think,
• 6:44
  I
• 6:44
  think
• 6:45
  that's
• 6:46
  an
• 6:46
  important.
• 6:47
  Yeah,
• 6:47
  I
• 6:48
  need
• 6:48
  to
• 6:48
  think.
• 6:48
  We
• 6:48
  talked
• 6:49
  about
• 6:49
  that.
• 6:49
  I
• 6:49
  know,
• 6:49
  in
• 6:49
  our
• 6:49
  social
• 6:50
  media
• 6:50
  episode
• 6:51
  sometime
• 6:51
  in
• 6:51
  the
• 6:51
  last
• 6:51
  couple
• 6:52
  of
• 6:52
  months,
• 6:52
  but
• 6:52
  I
• 6:53
  think
• 6:53
  I
• 6:53
  need
• 6:53
  to
• 6:53
  revisit
• 6:54
  that,
• 6:54
  make
• 6:54
  sure
• 6:55
  I'm
• 6:55
  protecting
• 6:56
  myself
• 6:56
  that
• 6:56
  way.
• 6:57
  Yeah.
• 6:58
  I
• 6:58
  don't
• 6:58
  spend
• 6:59
  a
• 6:59
  lot
• 6:59
  of
• 6:59
  time
• 6:59
  on
• 7:00
  social
• 7:00
  media
• 7:01
  these
• 7:01
  days,
• 7:01
  but
• 7:03
  I
• 7:03
  did
• 7:03
  pop
• 7:04
  into
• 7:04
  Facebook
• 7:05
  recently
• 7:05
  to
• 7:06
  respond
• 7:06
  to
• 7:06
  some
• 7:07
  comments
• 7:07
  we
• 7:07
  got
• 7:07
  for
• 7:08
  the
• 7:08
  podcast.
• 7:09
  And
• 7:10
  there
• 7:10
  was
• 7:11
  my
• 7:11
  feed
• 7:11
  and
• 7:11
  there
• 7:12
  was
• 7:12
  someone
• 7:14
  posting
• 7:14
  something
• 7:15
  that
• 7:15
  I
• 7:16
  was
• 7:17
  so
• 7:17
  vehemently
• 7:18
  opposed
• 7:18
  to
• 7:18
  and
• 7:19
  I
• 7:19
  was
• 7:19
  getting
• 7:19
  all
• 7:20
  ready
• 7:20
  to
• 7:21
  respond
• 7:22
  and
• 7:22
  then
• 7:24
  I
• 7:25
  thought,
• 7:26
  will
• 7:26
  this
• 7:27
  make
• 7:28
  a
• 7:28
  difference
• 7:28
  or
• 7:29
  is
• 7:29
  this
• 7:30
  like,
• 7:30
  will
• 7:31
  it
• 7:31
  make
• 7:31
  me
• 7:31
  feel
• 7:31
  better
• 7:31
  in
• 7:32
  the
• 7:32
  moment
• 7:32
  but
• 7:32
  not
• 7:33
  do
• 7:33
  anything
• 7:34
  and
• 7:34
  then
• 7:34
  I'll
• 7:34
  just
• 7:35
  perseverate,
• 7:35
  you
• 7:36
  know,
• 7:36
  like,
• 7:36
  will
• 7:37
  this
• 7:37
  actually
• 7:37
  make
• 7:37
  a
• 7:37
  difference?
• 7:38
  And
• 7:38
  then
• 7:38
  I
• 7:39
  decided
• 7:41
  this
• 7:42
  person
• 7:42
  who
• 7:43
  I
• 7:43
  went
• 7:43
  to
• 7:43
  high
• 7:43
  school
• 7:44
  with,
• 7:44
  who
• 7:44
  I
• 7:44
  have
• 7:45
  not
• 7:45
  seen
• 7:45
  since
• 7:45
  high
• 7:46
  school,
• 7:46
  is
• 7:47
  not
• 7:47
  an
• 7:48
  actual
• 7:48
  friend
• 7:48
  of
• 7:49
  mine
• 7:49
  and
• 7:49
  I
• 7:49
  can
• 7:50
  unfriend
• 7:50
  them
• 7:51
  and
• 7:51
  not
• 7:52
  have
• 7:52
  to
• 7:52
  have
• 7:52
  this
• 7:52
  in
• 7:52
  my
• 7:53
  feed.
• 7:54
  Yeah.
• 7:55
  Oh,
• 7:55
  that's
• 7:55
  good.
• 7:55
  That
• 7:56
  was
• 7:56
  good.
• 7:56
  That
• 7:56
  was
• 7:56
  good
• 7:57
  self
• 7:57
  care.
• 7:58
  And
• 7:58
  you're
• 7:58
  not
• 7:58
  a
• 7:58
  great.
• 7:59
  Wouldn't
• 7:59
  have
• 7:59
  been
• 7:59
  a
• 7:59
  great
• 7:59
  use
• 8:00
  of
• 8:00
  your
• 8:00
  time
• 8:00
  to
• 8:00
  get
• 8:00
  into
• 8:01
  a.
• 8:02
  An
• 8:02
  argument.
• 8:03
  Online
• 8:03
  argument
• 8:03
  with
• 8:04
  this
• 8:04
  person
• 8:04
  who
• 8:04
  isn't
• 8:04
  your
• 8:05
  friend.
• 8:06
  Yeah.
• 8:06
  And
• 8:06
  I
• 8:06
  saw
• 8:07
  there
• 8:07
  were
• 8:07
  like
• 8:08
  15
• 8:09
  comments
• 8:10
  that
• 8:10
  were
• 8:10
  like
• 8:11
  100%
• 8:12
  so
• 8:12
  right.
• 8:13
  Da
• 8:13
  da
• 8:13
  da
• 8:13
  da.
• 8:14
  And
• 8:14
  I
• 8:14
  was
• 8:14
  like,
• 8:14
  oh,
• 8:14
  this
• 8:14
  would
• 8:15
  just
• 8:15
  be
• 8:15
  a
• 8:15
  big
• 8:15
  pile
• 8:16
  on.
• 8:16
  And,
• 8:17
  and
• 8:18
  there's.
• 8:19
  There's
• 8:22
  no
• 8:23
  way
• 8:23
  to
• 8:24
  actually
• 8:24
  have
• 8:25
  a
• 8:25
  dialogue
• 8:26
  about
• 8:26
  this.
• 8:27
  Yeah.
• 8:28
  Yeah,
• 8:29
  that's
• 8:29
  smart.
• 8:30
  I
• 8:30
  mean,
• 8:30
  I
• 8:30
  never
• 8:31
  argue
• 8:31
  with
• 8:31
  people
• 8:32
  on
• 8:32
  social
• 8:33
  media.
• 8:33
  It's
• 8:33
  not
• 8:33
  in
• 8:33
  my
• 8:34
  nature.
• 8:35
  Yeah.
• 8:36
  I
• 8:36
  did
• 8:36
  see
• 8:36
  somebody
• 8:37
  post
• 8:37
  something
• 8:37
  the
• 8:37
  other
• 8:38
  day
• 8:38
  that
• 8:38
  was.
• 8:38
  It
• 8:39
  wasn't
• 8:39
  inflammatory,
• 8:40
  but
• 8:40
  it
• 8:40
  was
• 8:40
  not
• 8:41
  in
• 8:41
  a
• 8:42
  part
• 8:42
  of
• 8:42
  my
• 8:42
  worldview
• 8:43
  and
• 8:44
  I
• 8:45
  quickly
• 8:45
  scrolled
• 8:46
  away
• 8:46
  from
• 8:46
  that.
• 8:47
  But
• 8:47
  mostly
• 8:47
  my,
• 8:48
  my,
• 8:48
  my
• 8:48
  thing
• 8:49
  on
• 8:49
  Facebook
• 8:49
  is
• 8:49
  just
• 8:50
  people
• 8:50
  posting
• 8:51
  or
• 8:51
  just
• 8:51
  learning
• 8:52
  that
• 8:52
  the
• 8:52
  news
• 8:53
  just
• 8:54
  same
• 8:54
  and
• 8:55
  of
• 8:55
  course.
• 8:55
  And
• 8:55
  then
• 8:55
  nowadays
• 8:56
  you
• 8:56
  don't
• 8:56
  even
• 8:56
  know.
• 8:57
  You
• 8:57
  know,
• 8:57
  you
• 8:58
  see
• 8:58
  AI.
• 8:59
  I
• 8:59
  feel
• 8:59
  like
• 9:00
  I'm
• 9:00
  decent
• 9:00
  at
• 9:01
  picking
• 9:01
  out
• 9:01
  AI
• 9:02
  generated
• 9:02
  images
• 9:02
  and
• 9:03
  stuff
• 9:03
  but
• 9:03
  so
• 9:04
  much
• 9:04
  of
• 9:04
  it
• 9:04
  is
• 9:04
  just.
• 9:07
  Yeah,
• 9:07
  maybe
• 9:08
  I
• 9:08
  do
• 9:08
  need
• 9:08
  to
• 9:08
  fast
• 9:09
  a
• 9:09
  Facebook
• 9:09
  fast.
• 9:12
  But
• 9:12
  the.
• 9:14
  Yeah,
• 9:14
  I
• 9:14
  mean
• 9:15
  that
• 9:15
  might
• 9:15
  not
• 9:15
  be
• 9:15
  a
• 9:15
  bad
• 9:15
  thing
• 9:16
  to
• 9:16
  do
• 9:16
  for
• 9:16
  a
• 9:16
  little
• 9:16
  while
• 9:17
  and
• 9:17
  just
• 9:18
  get
• 9:18
  my
• 9:18
  news
• 9:18
  from
• 9:19
  my
• 9:19
  usual
• 9:19
  news
• 9:20
  sources
• 9:20
  like
• 9:21
  Jimmy
• 9:21
  Kimmel
• 9:22
  and
• 9:22
  Seth
• 9:22
  Myers.
• 9:28
  But
• 9:29
  one
• 9:29
  thing
• 9:29
  I
• 9:29
  was
• 9:29
  Thinking
• 9:30
  about,
• 9:30
  too,
• 9:30
  is
• 9:31
  taking
• 9:31
  action.
• 9:32
  Like
• 9:32
  what,
• 9:33
  you
• 9:33
  know,
• 9:34
  what
• 9:35
  can
• 9:35
  I
• 9:35
  do
• 9:36
  to
• 9:37
  feel
• 9:37
  better
• 9:37
  and
• 9:38
  feel
• 9:38
  like
• 9:38
  I'm
• 9:38
  helping
• 9:38
  the
• 9:39
  situation.
• 9:40
  Right.
• 9:41
  And,
• 9:42
  you
• 9:42
  know,
• 9:42
  that
• 9:42
  includes
• 9:43
  figuring
• 9:43
  out
• 9:44
  where
• 9:44
  I
• 9:44
  want
• 9:44
  to
• 9:44
  donate
• 9:45
  money
• 9:45
  and,
• 9:46
  you
• 9:46
  know,
• 9:46
  writing
• 9:47
  postcards
• 9:47
  to
• 9:47
  voters.
• 9:49
  And
• 9:50
  today,
• 9:51
  actually,
• 9:52
  in
• 9:52
  a
• 9:52
  couple
• 9:53
  hours,
• 9:53
  I'm
• 9:53
  going
• 9:53
  to
• 9:53
  be
• 9:54
  knitting
• 9:55
  in
• 9:55
  protest
• 9:56
  with
• 9:56
  a
• 9:56
  bunch
• 9:56
  of
• 9:56
  other
• 9:57
  people
• 9:57
  who
• 9:57
  are
• 9:57
  knitting
• 9:58
  in
• 9:58
  protest
• 9:59
  hats.
• 10:02
  So
• 10:03
  that
• 10:03
  would
• 10:03
  be
• 10:03
  nice.
• 10:04
  I
• 10:04
  haven't
• 10:04
  decided
• 10:05
  if
• 10:05
  I'm
• 10:05
  just.
• 10:05
  If
• 10:06
  I'm
• 10:06
  going
• 10:06
  to
• 10:06
  actually
• 10:06
  go
• 10:06
  on
• 10:06
  the
• 10:07
  zoom
• 10:07
  or
• 10:07
  if
• 10:07
  I'm
• 10:07
  just
• 10:07
  going
• 10:07
  to
• 10:08
  knit
• 10:08
  alone.
• 10:09
  But,
• 10:09
  you
• 10:10
  know,
• 10:10
  part
• 10:10
  of
• 10:10
  the
• 10:10
  collective
• 10:11
  conscience
• 10:12
  of
• 10:12
  just
• 10:13
  knitting.
• 10:13
  But
• 10:14
  that'll
• 10:14
  feel
• 10:14
  good.
• 10:15
  And
• 10:15
  I'll
• 10:15
  have
• 10:15
  a
• 10:15
  hat
• 10:15
  to
• 10:15
  wear
• 10:16
  in
• 10:16
  protest.
• 10:17
  Yeah,
• 10:19
  that'll
• 10:19
  be
• 10:19
  fun.
• 10:20
  Yeah,
• 10:22
  it'll
• 10:22
  be
• 10:23
  enjoyable.
• 10:24
  Yeah.
• 10:24
  I
• 10:24
  can,
• 10:24
  if
• 10:25
  in
• 10:25
  the
• 10:25
  show
• 10:25
  notes
• 10:25
  I
• 10:25
  can
• 10:26
  put
• 10:26
  a
• 10:26
  link
• 10:26
  to
• 10:26
  the
• 10:26
  pattern
• 10:27
  for
• 10:27
  the
• 10:28
  hat.
• 10:28
  It's
• 10:28
  called
• 10:29
  melt
• 10:30
  the
• 10:30
  ice
• 10:30
  hat.
• 10:32
  Oh,
• 10:33
  I've
• 10:34
  not
• 10:34
  seen
• 10:34
  that.
• 10:35
  Yeah.
• 10:37
  But,
• 10:37
  yeah,
• 10:37
  I
• 10:38
  mean,
• 10:39
  I
• 10:39
  think
• 10:39
  that
• 10:39
  is
• 10:40
  so
• 10:40
  key,
• 10:41
  though,
• 10:41
  to
• 10:42
  find
• 10:42
  what
• 10:42
  it
• 10:43
  is
• 10:43
  you
• 10:43
  can
• 10:43
  do.
• 10:44
  And
• 10:45
  I
• 10:45
  think
• 10:46
  I
• 10:47
  come
• 10:47
  from
• 10:48
  a
• 10:48
  Portland,
• 10:48
  Oregon,
• 10:49
  where
• 10:50
  our
• 10:52
  elected
• 10:53
  officials
• 10:54
  are
• 10:56
  as
• 10:56
  aligned
• 10:57
  with
• 10:58
  my
• 10:58
  political
• 10:59
  values
• 11:00
  and
• 11:01
  personal
• 11:01
  values
• 11:02
  as
• 11:02
  they
• 11:02
  can
• 11:02
  be.
• 11:03
  So
• 11:04
  it
• 11:05
  doesn't
• 11:06
  do
• 11:06
  a
• 11:07
  lot
• 11:07
  for
• 11:07
  me
• 11:08
  to
• 11:08
  make
• 11:09
  calls
• 11:09
  and
• 11:10
  send
• 11:11
  letters
• 11:11
  or
• 11:11
  emails
• 11:12
  or
• 11:12
  anything
• 11:13
  like
• 11:13
  that,
• 11:14
  but
• 11:14
  I
• 11:14
  think
• 11:15
  it
• 11:16
  will
• 11:16
  make
• 11:16
  a
• 11:16
  big
• 11:17
  difference
• 11:17
  to
• 11:18
  get
• 11:19
  out
• 11:19
  the
• 11:19
  vote
• 11:20
  in
• 11:21
  November
• 11:21
  for
• 11:22
  the
• 11:22
  midterm
• 11:22
  elections.
• 11:23
  And
• 11:23
  so
• 11:23
  that's
• 11:24
  definitely
• 11:24
  somewhere
• 11:25
  I
• 11:25
  can
• 11:25
  put
• 11:25
  my
• 11:26
  energy.
• 11:27
  You
• 11:28
  know
• 11:28
  what
• 11:28
  popped
• 11:29
  in
• 11:29
  my
• 11:29
  head
• 11:29
  when
• 11:29
  you
• 11:29
  said
• 11:30
  that?
• 11:30
  I
• 11:30
  wonder.
• 11:30
  I
• 11:31
  don't
• 11:31
  know
• 11:31
  the
• 11:31
  answer
• 11:31
  to
• 11:32
  this,
• 11:32
  but
• 11:33
  I
• 11:33
  feel
• 11:34
  the
• 11:34
  same.
• 11:34
  I
• 11:34
  understand
• 11:35
  what
• 11:35
  you're
• 11:35
  saying,
• 11:35
  because
• 11:36
  my
• 11:36
  US
• 11:37
  Representative
• 11:38
  is
• 11:38
  also.
• 11:38
  We're
• 11:39
  from
• 11:39
  a
• 11:39
  very
• 11:40
  blue
• 11:41
  city.
• 11:41
  But
• 11:43
  I
• 11:43
  wonder
• 11:43
  if
• 11:44
  people
• 11:44
  from
• 11:44
  other
• 11:45
  parts
• 11:45
  of
• 11:45
  the
• 11:45
  state,
• 11:45
  if
• 11:45
  you're
• 11:45
  talking
• 11:46
  about
• 11:46
  US
• 11:46
  Senators
• 11:47
  that
• 11:48
  represent
• 11:48
  you,
• 11:50
  if
• 11:50
  other
• 11:50
  people
• 11:51
  are
• 11:51
  writing
• 11:51
  with
• 11:52
  the
• 11:52
  opposite
• 11:52
  viewpoint
• 11:53
  that
• 11:53
  for
• 11:53
  their
• 11:53
  tally
• 11:54
  sheets,
• 11:54
  getting
• 11:54
  calls
• 11:55
  from
• 11:56
  your
• 11:56
  viewpoint
• 11:56
  might
• 11:57
  be
• 11:57
  good.
• 11:58
  Might
• 11:58
  be
• 11:58
  helpful.
• 11:58
  Oh,
• 11:59
  yeah,
• 11:59
  I
• 11:59
  hadn't
• 12:00
  thought
• 12:00
  about
• 12:00
  that.
• 12:00
  But
• 12:01
  that
• 12:02
  Oregon
• 12:03
  is
• 12:06
  a
• 12:06
  divided
• 12:06
  state,
• 12:07
  but
• 12:09
  the,
• 12:10
  the
• 12:10
  red
• 12:11
  portion
• 12:11
  of
• 12:11
  the
• 12:12
  state,
• 12:14
  the
• 12:14
  population
• 12:15
  does
• 12:15
  not
• 12:16
  surpass
• 12:16
  the
• 12:17
  blue
• 12:17
  portion
• 12:18
  of
• 12:18
  the
• 12:18
  state.
• 12:19
  And.
• 12:19
  But
• 12:21
  those
• 12:21
  people
• 12:21
  are
• 12:22
  a
• 12:22
  lot
• 12:22
  more
• 12:22
  vocal
• 12:23
  with
• 12:23
  the,
• 12:26
  with
• 12:26
  our
• 12:27
  senators.
• 12:28
  Yeah.
• 12:29
  So.
• 12:29
  So,
• 12:30
  yeah.
• 12:31
  Yeah,
• 12:31
  perhaps.
• 12:31
  Yeah.
• 12:32
  I,
• 12:32
  I
• 12:32
  mean,
• 12:32
  and
• 12:32
  I'm
• 12:33
  the.
• 12:33
  I,
• 12:33
  my
• 12:34
  senators
• 12:34
  are
• 12:34
  conservative
• 12:35
  and
• 12:35
  I
• 12:37
  do
• 12:37
  write
• 12:38
  them
• 12:38
  and
• 12:38
  I
• 12:38
  get
• 12:38
  so
• 12:39
  infuriated
• 12:39
  by
• 12:39
  the
• 12:40
  responses.
• 12:40
  I
• 12:40
  should
• 12:41
  just
• 12:41
  stop
• 12:41
  reading
• 12:41
  the
• 12:41
  responses
• 12:44
  the
• 12:44
  other
• 12:44
  day.
• 12:44
  But
• 12:45
  I
• 12:45
  agree.
• 12:45
  And
• 12:45
  to
• 12:45
  me,
• 12:46
  getting
• 12:46
  on
• 12:46
  the
• 12:46
  vote
• 12:46
  is
• 12:46
  huge,
• 12:48
  so
• 12:48
  I
• 12:48
  love
• 12:49
  participating
• 12:49
  in
• 12:49
  that
• 12:50
  effort.
• 12:51
  Yeah.
• 12:52
  I
• 12:52
  mean,
• 12:52
  there's
• 12:52
  lots
• 12:52
  of
• 12:53
  things
• 12:53
  that
• 12:53
  could
• 12:53
  be
• 12:53
  Done.
• 12:53
  And
• 12:54
  I
• 12:54
  think
• 12:54
  too,
• 12:54
  like
• 12:54
  you
• 12:55
  said,
• 12:55
  you
• 12:55
  know,
• 12:56
  if
• 12:56
  you
• 12:56
  have
• 12:57
  money
• 12:57
  to
• 12:58
  donate,
• 12:58
  where
• 12:59
  can
• 12:59
  you
• 12:59
  donate
• 13:00
  it?
• 13:00
  That
• 13:01
  makes
• 13:02
  a
• 13:02
  big,
• 13:02
  the
• 13:03
  biggest
• 13:03
  impact
• 13:04
  for
• 13:04
  whatever
• 13:04
  you
• 13:05
  have
• 13:05
  to
• 13:05
  donate.
• 13:06
  If
• 13:06
  you
• 13:07
  have
• 13:07
  time
• 13:08
  to
• 13:08
  donate,
• 13:10
  where
• 13:10
  can
• 13:10
  you
• 13:10
  do
• 13:11
  that?
• 13:12
  You
• 13:12
  know,
• 13:12
  if
• 13:13
  you
• 13:13
  are
• 13:14
  willing
• 13:14
  to
• 13:14
  protest,
• 13:16
  where
• 13:16
  can
• 13:16
  you
• 13:17
  protest?
• 13:17
  But
• 13:18
  to
• 13:19
  really
• 13:20
  think
• 13:21
  about
• 13:21
  it
• 13:22
  in
• 13:22
  a
• 13:22
  purposeful
• 13:23
  way
• 13:25
  so
• 13:25
  that
• 13:27
  it's
• 13:28
  not
• 13:28
  perfectionism,
• 13:29
  doesn't
• 13:29
  get
• 13:30
  involved
• 13:30
  and
• 13:30
  it's
• 13:30
  not
• 13:31
  like,
• 13:31
  oh,
• 13:31
  I
• 13:31
  should
• 13:32
  be
• 13:32
  doing
• 13:32
  more,
• 13:32
  I
• 13:33
  need
• 13:33
  to
• 13:33
  be
• 13:33
  doing
• 13:34
  this
• 13:34
  or
• 13:34
  I'm
• 13:35
  not
• 13:35
  being,
• 13:36
  I'm
• 13:36
  not
• 13:36
  doing
• 13:36
  this.
• 13:36
  The
• 13:37
  right
• 13:37
  way
• 13:38
  or
• 13:38
  if
• 13:38
  I
• 13:39
  can't
• 13:39
  do
• 13:39
  it
• 13:39
  all,
• 13:39
  I'm
• 13:39
  not
• 13:40
  going
• 13:40
  to
• 13:40
  do
• 13:40
  anything.
• 13:41
  It's
• 13:42
  not
• 13:42
  an
• 13:42
  all
• 13:42
  or
• 13:42
  nothing
• 13:43
  proposition.
• 13:44
  Any
• 13:44
  little
• 13:44
  bits,
• 13:45
  little
• 13:45
  actions
• 13:47
  can
• 13:47
  make
• 13:47
  a
• 13:47
  difference.
• 13:48
  Yeah.
• 13:48
  I
• 13:49
  mean,
• 13:49
  yeah.
• 13:49
  Yeah.
• 13:50
  I
• 13:50
  admire
• 13:51
  people
• 13:51
  who
• 13:51
  do
• 13:51
  a
• 13:51
  ton
• 13:54
  and
• 13:54
  it's
• 13:54
  great
• 13:55
  to
• 13:55
  do
• 13:55
  a
• 13:55
  little
• 13:56
  as
• 13:56
  well.
• 13:57
  Yeah.
• 13:58
  I
• 13:58
  mean
• 13:59
  if
• 14:00
  most
• 14:00
  people
• 14:01
  did
• 14:01
  a
• 14:01
  little,
• 14:03
  that
• 14:03
  would
• 14:03
  be
• 14:03
  amazing.
• 14:05
  And
• 14:05
  you
• 14:05
  know,
• 14:07
  not
• 14:07
  everyone
• 14:07
  can
• 14:08
  do
• 14:09
  very
• 14:09
  much
• 14:09
  or
• 14:10
  anything
• 14:11
  and.
• 14:13
  But
• 14:13
  I
• 14:13
  think
• 14:13
  we
• 14:14
  can
• 14:14
  all
• 14:14
  do
• 14:15
  a
• 14:15
  little
• 14:15
  bit.
• 14:16
  And
• 14:16
  I
• 14:16
  think
• 14:16
  there
• 14:16
  are
• 14:17
  ways
• 14:17
  to
• 14:17
  sort
• 14:18
  of
• 14:18
  feel.
• 14:20
  Even
• 14:20
  if
• 14:20
  you
• 14:20
  just
• 14:21
  feel
• 14:21
  like
• 14:21
  you're
• 14:21
  making
• 14:21
  a
• 14:21
  difference
• 14:22
  in
• 14:22
  one
• 14:22
  person's
• 14:23
  life,
• 14:23
  I
• 14:23
  think
• 14:23
  that
• 14:25
  matters.
• 14:26
  Yeah.
• 14:26
  And
• 14:27
  showing,
• 14:28
  caring
• 14:28
  for
• 14:29
  those
• 14:29
  around
• 14:29
  you
• 14:30
  because
• 14:30
  we.
• 14:31
  Like
• 14:32
  I
• 14:32
  just
• 14:32
  said,
• 14:32
  I.
• 14:32
  Most
• 14:33
  of
• 14:33
  my
• 14:33
  friends
• 14:33
  are
• 14:33
  aligned
• 14:34
  with
• 14:34
  me,
• 14:34
  which
• 14:34
  means
• 14:35
  most
• 14:35
  of
• 14:35
  my
• 14:35
  friends
• 14:35
  are
• 14:36
  upset
• 14:37
  as
• 14:37
  well.
• 14:38
  And
• 14:39
  reaching
• 14:39
  out
• 14:41
  and
• 14:42
  seeing
• 14:42
  how
• 14:43
  people
• 14:43
  are
• 14:43
  doing
• 14:43
  rather
• 14:44
  than
• 14:45
  scrolling
• 14:46
  on
• 14:46
  Facebook
• 14:47
  might
• 14:47
  be
• 14:48
  a
• 14:48
  better
• 14:48
  use
• 14:48
  of
• 14:49
  my
• 14:49
  time.
• 14:49
  That
• 14:49
  connected.
• 14:50
  That
• 14:50
  feeling
• 14:51
  connected.
• 14:52
  Yeah.
• 14:52
  I
• 14:53
  was
• 14:53
  just
• 14:53
  making
• 14:53
  a
• 14:53
  list
• 14:54
  of
• 14:54
  people
• 14:54
  I
• 14:54
  needed
• 14:54
  to
• 14:54
  reach
• 14:55
  out
• 14:55
  to
• 14:56
  while
• 14:56
  I
• 14:56
  was
• 14:56
  taking
• 14:56
  a
• 14:57
  shower
• 14:58
  and
• 14:58
  so
• 14:59
  I
• 14:59
  couldn't
• 15:00
  write
• 15:00
  the
• 15:00
  list.
• 15:00
  You're
• 15:00
  making
• 15:00
  a
• 15:01
  list
• 15:01
  in
• 15:01
  your
• 15:01
  head?
• 15:02
  In
• 15:02
  my
• 15:02
  head.
• 15:03
  So
• 15:03
  I
• 15:04
  couldn't
• 15:04
  write
• 15:04
  it
• 15:04
  down
• 15:04
  at
• 15:05
  that
• 15:05
  moment.
• 15:06
  So
• 15:06
  now
• 15:07
  I
• 15:07
  have
• 15:07
  to
• 15:07
  put
• 15:07
  it
• 15:08
  in
• 15:08
  some
• 15:08
  format
• 15:09
  where
• 15:09
  it's
• 15:09
  readable.
• 15:10
  Yeah.
• 15:10
  But
• 15:11
  it
• 15:12
  does
• 15:12
  feel
• 15:12
  important
• 15:13
  to
• 15:13
  sort
• 15:13
  of
• 15:13
  recognize
• 15:14
  that,
• 15:17
  that
• 15:17
  there
• 15:17
  is
• 15:18
  this
• 15:18
  level
• 15:18
  of
• 15:18
  stress
• 15:19
  that
• 15:19
  is
• 15:19
  impacting
• 15:21
  how
• 15:22
  we
• 15:22
  feel
• 15:22
  emotionally
• 15:24
  energy
• 15:25
  wise,
• 15:26
  you
• 15:26
  know,
• 15:26
  sort
• 15:27
  of
• 15:27
  our
• 15:27
  capacity.
• 15:29
  And
• 15:30
  you
• 15:30
  know,
• 15:31
  in
• 15:31
  some
• 15:31
  very
• 15:31
  real
• 15:32
  ways
• 15:32
  it
• 15:32
  is
• 15:32
  eating
• 15:33
  up
• 15:33
  time
• 15:34
  because
• 15:35
  you
• 15:35
  know,
• 15:35
  we're
• 15:36
  doom
• 15:36
  scrolling.
• 15:36
  We're
• 15:37
  getting
• 15:37
  sucked
• 15:38
  into
• 15:38
  things
• 15:38
  or
• 15:39
  even
• 15:39
  just
• 15:39
  sitting
• 15:40
  around
• 15:40
  perseverating.
• 15:42
  And
• 15:43
  that
• 15:44
  one
• 15:45
  way
• 15:45
  to
• 15:47
  deal
• 15:47
  with
• 15:47
  that
• 15:47
  is
• 15:48
  to
• 15:49
  create
• 15:49
  these
• 15:50
  boundaries.
• 15:51
  And
• 15:51
  another
• 15:52
  way
• 15:52
  is
• 15:53
  to
• 15:54
  figure
• 15:54
  out
• 15:54
  one
• 15:55
  small
• 15:55
  action
• 15:56
  that
• 15:57
  you
• 15:57
  can
• 15:57
  take.
• 15:58
  Right.
• 16:00
  Yeah.
• 16:00
  And
• 16:01
  then
• 16:01
  I
• 16:01
  think
• 16:01
  I'd
• 16:02
  like
• 16:02
  to
• 16:02
  hope
• 16:03
  that
• 16:04
  by
• 16:04
  doing
• 16:04
  those
• 16:04
  things
• 16:06
  we're
• 16:06
  taking
• 16:06
  away
• 16:07
  some
• 16:07
  of
• 16:07
  that
• 16:07
  vibration
• 16:08
  or
• 16:08
  that
• 16:09
  tension
• 16:10
  that
• 16:11
  I'm
• 16:11
  feeling
• 16:12
  all
• 16:13
  the
• 16:13
  time
• 16:13
  and
• 16:14
  if
• 16:14
  can
• 16:14
  relieve
• 16:14
  that
• 16:15
  tension,
• 16:15
  I
• 16:15
  can
• 16:16
  be
• 16:16
  happier
• 16:17
  and
• 16:17
  more
• 16:18
  productive
• 16:18
  and
• 16:21
  enjoy
• 16:21
  life
• 16:21
  more.
• 16:23
  Yeah.
• 16:23
  Well,
• 16:23
  and
• 16:24
  also,
• 16:26
  it's
• 16:26
  easier
• 16:27
  to
• 16:27
  take
• 16:27
  action
• 16:29
  when
• 16:30
  you,
• 16:31
  you're
• 16:31
  feeling
• 16:32
  calm,
• 16:33
  when
• 16:33
  you're
• 16:33
  feeling
• 16:34
  okay,
• 16:34
  when
• 16:34
  you're
• 16:35
  feeling
• 16:36
  safe.
• 16:38
  It's
• 16:38
  easier
• 16:39
  to
• 16:39
  help
• 16:39
  other
• 16:39
  people.
• 16:40
  You
• 16:40
  know,
• 16:40
  it's
• 16:40
  a
• 16:41
  little
• 16:41
  bit
• 16:41
  of
• 16:41
  that.
• 16:41
  Put
• 16:41
  your
• 16:42
  oxygen
• 16:42
  mask
• 16:43
  on
• 16:43
  first.
• 16:44
  Yeah.
• 16:45
  And
• 16:46
  so
• 16:48
  doing
• 16:48
  that,
• 16:48
  calming
• 16:49
  your
• 16:49
  nervous
• 16:50
  system
• 16:50
  down
• 16:50
  allows
• 16:51
  you
• 16:51
  to
• 16:51
  take
• 16:51
  action,
• 16:52
  which
• 16:52
  can
• 16:52
  make
• 16:53
  a
• 16:53
  difference
• 16:53
  for
• 16:53
  other

  Yeah.

  remembered,
• 18:10
  and
• 18:10
  you
• 18:10
  probably
• 18:10
  remember
• 18:11
  this,
• 18:11
  years
• 18:11
  ago,
• 18:12
  I
• 18:12
  used
• 18:12
  to
• 18:12
  have
• 18:12
  a
• 18:12
  whiteboard
• 18:13
  in
• 18:13
  my
• 18:13
  shower.
• 18:15
  Do
• 18:15
  you
• 18:15
  remember
• 18:16
  that?
• 18:16
  Oh,
• 18:17
  my
• 18:17
  God.
• 18:17
  I
• 18:17
  completely
• 18:18
  forgot
• 18:18
  about
• 18:18
  that.
• 18:19
  Wow.
• 18:22
  I
• 18:23
  get
• 18:23
  the
• 18:23
  inclination
• 18:24
  of
• 18:24
  that,
• 18:24
  but
• 18:24
  I.
• 18:25
  So
• 18:25
  extra.
• 18:26
  Yeah,
• 18:27
  that's
• 18:27
  exactly
• 18:28
  the
• 18:28
  word.
• 18:28
  I
• 18:28
  was
• 18:28
  about
• 18:29
  to
