• 0:17
  Speaker 1: What shaken Emily Abadi. Here you are listening to five
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Minute Friday from Hurdle helpe you out a good week?
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: I you know what? How did I describe this? Earlier?
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: I was sitting at the gym next to a girlfriend
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: and I said to her that I feel as though
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: I have been sprinting on a treadmill this whole month.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: I cannot believe it's already January twenty seventh, on the
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: day that this episode comes out, and somehow I miraculously
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: haven't fallen off of the tread And that's really it, right.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: I feel as the life is moving at one thousand
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: miles an hour and I'm doing the best I can
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: with what I have, And honestly, that's all that I
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: can ask myself at this moment. For five Minute Friday
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: this week, I want to talk about energy. Now. It's funny.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: I hear myself saying that out loud, and I remember
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: years ago when I used to hear individuals talk about energy.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I thought it was like a little goopy, a little
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: woo wooye. Insert funny adjective here to describe how it's
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: kind of whimsical, right, And now, having spent a lot
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: of time immersed in influential teachings from authors that I admire,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: ranging from Angela Duckworth and Gretchen Rubin to mel Robbins
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: and James Clear. So many of these individuals that I
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: admire touch on the concept of energy often, and so
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: it is something that I have become much more accepting of.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: So this week on the show, that's exactly what I
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: want to talk about. I want to talk about energy. Specifically,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: energy attracts like energy, So what does that mean. That
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: means that if you go into your day and you
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: are super positive, then it's likely that you are going
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: to interact with and find positive things around you, Whereas
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: if you go into your day and you have a
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: negative attitude, it is likely that you are going to
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: easily be able to find things wrong with the world
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: that you interact with around you. To clearly paint a picture,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the positive person could be sitting at a diner and
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: look outside and notice an elderly couple helping one another
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: across the street and think about how lovely that is.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Whereas they could be sitting across the table eating with
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: someone who is negative and they look out the window
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and they don't even notice the happily engaged elderly couple.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Instead they notice like a dirty puddle of water on
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the side of the road. And so I say all
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: of this because I have really been conscious lately of
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the energy I'm putting out into the world, knowing so
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: wholeheartedly what it is that I want to receive. I've
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: been going out of my way to spend time with
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: people that make me feel filled up, like they're filling
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: up my cup. And I can say from the conversations
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: that I have with these individuals that it's a mutual thing.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: And so I ask you today what is it that
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: you want to receive? And when you answer that question,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: ask yourself what is it that I am putting out
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: into the world. So transitioning into the listener prompt, what
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: is it that you want to receive? And the second part,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: what is it that you're putting out into the world.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: It's food for thought, right, and and sometimes putting out
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: what you want back can feel like a challenge, And
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: that's okay. It's kind of like the Alexipopus rule of thirds, right,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Like a third of the time training is going to
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: absolutely suck. A third of the time it's going to
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: feel okay, and a third of the time it's just
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: going to click. And so while I can recommend or
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: suggest that you try to meet each day with optimism
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: and a positive attitude, I recognize that's not what always
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: is going to happen. So with that said, what is
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: within your control to show up and seek out what
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: it is that you are after, knowing what you have
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: to offer in return? And now a listener question.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Hi Emily de sis Nisha. First of all, I want
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: to thank you for all the amating content that you
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: keep on creating. I'm a life coach and since you
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: have started Studding to become my life coach, I can
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: see the difference in the way that you ask your
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: questions from your guests, and it is truly beautiful. My
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: question for you is what are your recommendations for someone
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: who wants to start podcasting and what are the basic
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: tools and equipments that you would recomment me buying. And
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: I would really appreciated if you can also like add
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: some links maybe from Amazon. Thank you so much and
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I look forward to hearing your recommendations.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I love this motivation. Hi Nusha, thank you so much
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: for your question. I'm excited to answer it. I do
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: have a course that goes into this in depth. It
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: is a hurdle session. I'll link that hurdle session called
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: intro to Podcasting in the show notes so you can
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: check it out. In addition, however, when it comes to podcasting,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: literally the only thing that you need to start off
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: is an inexpensive USB microphone. For the first year or
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: two of Hurdle, I used a blue Yetti Snowball microphone.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: It retails on Amazon for ninety nine ninety nine and
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: it was the perfect low frills piece of equipment for
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: me to get this thing going. In addition to a microphone,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: you may want a good pair of headphones, although the
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: corded Apple headphones will do just fine. And then beyond
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: that you'll need some sort of editing tool on your laptop.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: So software I use Garage Band. It comes free with
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: my Mac. There are also other programs including Adobe and Audacity,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: and now you can even edit on some of the
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: various hosting platforms out there. The most important piece of
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: advice I can offer, however, to any aspiring podcaster is
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: be really clear on what your goal is by podcasting
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: and what it is that you want to offer your
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: audience so so often will come to me and they say,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: I want a podcast, but I just don't know, Like
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: there's so many out there. And the thing is is
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: that there's only one you. You are the only you
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: that there is. So don't let the fact that there
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: are a lot of podcasts in the world deter you
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: from sharing your lights. But with that said, know what
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: it is that you want to share and be really
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: clear on that. Ask yourself, why why am I saying this?
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: What is my goal? And that's really going to help
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: you on your journey to creating consistent content. I will
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: again share some of my go to podcasting tools in
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: the show notes with Amazon links as requested, and again
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: that Hurdle session on intron of Podcasting will also be
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: in there for those of you that are interested. I
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: believe that is it for this week. I love your
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: listener questions and again no topics are off limits, So
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: head on over to the show notes and click leave
• 8:01

• 8:04
