  so
• 2:54
  10
• 2:54
  years

  ago
• 2:55
  now,
• 2:55
  which

  for
• 3:00
  charities
• 3:00
  and
• 3:01
  I
• 3:01
  was
• 3:01
  doing
• 3:01
  event
• 3:01
  Planning.
• 3:02
  I
• 3:02

• 3:02
  new
• 3:03
  business
• 3:04
  idea
• 3:04

• 3:05
  and
• 3:05
  setting
• 3:05
  up
• 3:06
  new
• 3:06
  projects
• 3:06
  and
• 3:06
  things
• 3:07
  and
• 3:07
  it
• 3:07
  was
• 3:07
  all
• 3:07
  like
• 3:08
  really
• 3:08
  cool
• 3:08
  and
• 3:08
  really
• 3:08
  fun
• 3:09
  and
• 3:09
  I.
• 3:10
  But
• 3:10
  I
• 3:10
  kind
• 3:10
  of
• 3:10
  fallen
• 3:11
  into
• 3:11
  it
• 3:11
  after
• 3:11
  university
• 3:12
  and
• 3:13
  knew
• 3:13
  that
• 3:13
  I
• 3:13
  kind
• 3:14
  of
• 3:14
  wanted
• 3:14
  to
• 3:14
  try
• 3:14
  something
• 3:15
  for
• 3:15
  me.
• 3:15
  So
• 3:16
  after
• 3:16
  I
• 3:16
  got
• 3:16
  married
• 3:17
  in
• 3:17
  2014,
• 3:17
  I
• 3:18
  set
• 3:18
  up
• 3:19
  a
• 3:19
  wedding
• 3:19
  photography
• 3:20
  business
• 3:20
  and
• 3:21
  really
• 3:22
  threw
• 3:22
  myself
• 3:22
  into
• 3:23
  it
• 3:23
  and
• 3:23
  managed
• 3:24
  to
• 3:24
  go
• 3:24
  full
• 3:25
  time
• 3:25
  in
• 3:25
  that
• 3:25
  business
• 3:26
  in
• 3:26
  2016.
• 3:28
  So
• 3:28
  around
• 3:28
  the
• 3:28
  time
• 3:28
  that
• 3:29
  we
• 3:29
  met
• 3:31
  and
• 3:31
  yeah,
• 3:32
  and
• 3:32
  I
• 3:32
  guess
• 3:32
  it
• 3:32
  went
• 3:32
  from
• 3:33
  strength
• 3:33
  to
• 3:33
  strength.
• 3:34
  I
• 3:34
  was,
• 3:34
  I
• 3:34
  built
• 3:34
  it
• 3:34
  up.
• 3:35
  I
• 3:35
  was
• 3:35
  really
• 3:35
  proud
• 3:36
  of.
• 3:36
  I
• 3:37
  kind
• 3:37
  of
• 3:37
  managed
• 3:37
  to
• 3:38
  grow
• 3:38
  it
• 3:38
  really
• 3:38
  quickly,
• 3:38
  went
• 3:39
  full
• 3:39
  time
• 3:39
  quite
• 3:39
  quickly
• 3:40
  and
• 3:41
  I
• 3:41
  was,
• 3:41
  it
• 3:41
  was
• 3:41
  really
• 3:42
  successful.
• 3:42
  I
• 3:42
  was,
• 3:43
  you
• 3:43
  know,
• 3:44
  doing
• 3:44
  really
• 3:44
  well.
• 3:45
  I
• 3:45
  was
• 3:45
  really
• 3:46
  doing
• 3:46
  lots
• 3:46
  of
• 3:46
  really
• 3:47
  awesome
• 3:47
  weddings
• 3:47
  and
• 3:48
  it
• 3:48
  was
• 3:48
  just
• 3:49
  all
• 3:49
  going
• 3:49
  really
• 3:50
  well.
• 3:51
  I
• 3:51
  did
• 3:52
  that
• 3:52
  so
• 3:52
  for
• 3:52
  a
• 3:52
  few
• 3:52
  years
• 3:53
  and
• 3:53
  I
• 3:54
  then
• 3:54
  had
• 3:54
  babies
• 3:55
  which
• 3:55
  was
• 3:55
  part
• 3:55
  of
• 3:55
  the
• 3:56
  reason
• 3:56
  I
• 3:56
  wanted
• 3:56
  to,
• 3:57
  to
• 3:58
  go
• 3:58
  kind
• 3:58
  of
• 3:58
  self
• 3:58
  employed,
• 3:59
  I
• 3:59
  guess.
• 3:59
  So
• 3:59
  to
• 4:00
  have
• 4:00
  that
• 4:00
  flexibility
• 4:01
  to
• 4:02
  be
• 4:02
  able
• 4:02
  to,
• 4:02
  to
• 4:02
  run
• 4:03
  a
• 4:03
  business
• 4:03
  and
• 4:03
  make
• 4:04
  money
• 4:04
  while
• 4:04
  still
• 4:05
  having
• 4:05
  children,
• 4:06
  spending
• 4:06
  time
• 4:06
  with
• 4:06
  my
• 4:06
  family.
• 4:07
  And

  obviously
• 4:09
  then,
• 4:09
  you
• 4:09
  know,
• 4:09
  things
• 4:10
  were
• 4:11
  pretty
• 4:11

  thing
• 4:15
  and
• 4:15
  I
• 4:16
  was
• 4:16
  really
• 4:16
  like,
• 4:17
  at
• 4:17
  times
• 4:17
  I
• 4:17
  really
• 4:18
  struggled
• 4:19
  with
• 4:19
  my,
• 4:19
  with
• 4:19
  my
• 4:20
  mental
• 4:20
  health
• 4:20
  and
• 4:20
  balancing
• 4:21
  everything
• 4:21
  and
• 4:22
  being
• 4:22
  able
• 4:23
  to
• 4:23
  show
• 4:23
  up
• 4:23
  and
• 4:24
  work
• 4:24
  and
• 4:24
  you
• 4:24
  know,
• 4:25
  I
• 4:25
  went
• 4:25
  back
• 4:25
  to
• 4:25
  do
• 4:26
  my
• 4:26
  first
• 4:26
  wedding
• 4:26
  off
• 4:27
  when
• 4:27
  my
• 4:27
  daughter,
• 4:27
  my
• 4:28
  first
• 4:28
  child
• 4:28
  was
• 4:29
  only
• 4:29
  like
• 4:29
  2
• 4:29
  months
• 4:29
  old.
• 4:30
  Like
• 4:30
  it
• 4:30
  was
• 4:30
  kind
• 4:31
  of
• 4:31
  crazy
• 4:31
  at
• 4:31
  times.
• 4:31
  And
• 4:32
  I
• 4:32
  kind
• 4:32
  of
• 4:32
  look
• 4:32
  back
• 4:32
  now
• 4:33
  and
• 4:33
  think,
• 4:33
  wow,
• 4:33
  I
• 4:34
  can't
• 4:34
  believe
• 4:34
  I,
• 4:34
  I
• 4:35
  kind
• 4:35
  of
• 4:35
  pushed
• 4:35
  ahead
• 4:35
  and
• 4:35
  went
• 4:36
  and
• 4:36
  did
• 4:36
  and
• 4:36
  just
• 4:37
  I
• 4:37
  almost
• 4:37
  carried
• 4:37
  on
• 4:38
  as
• 4:38
  if
• 4:38
  I
• 4:38
  hadn't
• 4:38
  had
• 4:39
  a
• 4:39
  baby,
• 4:39
  which
• 4:39
  is
• 4:39
  a
• 4:40
  bit
• 4:40
  mad
• 4:41
  but
• 4:41
  you
• 4:41
  know,
• 4:42
  I
• 4:42
  was
• 4:42
  trying
• 4:42
  to
• 4:43
  run
• 4:43
  a
• 4:43
  business
• 4:43
  in
• 4:43
  the
• 4:44
  same
• 4:44
  way
• 4:44
  despite
• 4:45
  also
• 4:45
  having
• 4:46
  two
• 4:46
  small
• 4:47
  children.
• 4:48
  And
• 4:48
  then
• 4:48
  obviously
• 4:49
  happened
• 4:49
  as
• 4:49
  well
• 4:50
  and
• 4:50
  we
• 4:51
  all
• 4:51
  know
• 4:51
  how
• 4:51
  crazy
• 4:52
  that
• 4:52
  time
• 4:52
  was.
• 4:53
  So
• 4:54
  I
• 4:54
  continued,
• 4:54
  yeah,
• 4:55
  running
• 4:55
  my
• 4:55
  business
• 4:55
  and
• 4:56
  kind
• 4:56
  of
• 4:56
  adapting
• 4:57
  slightly
• 4:57
  so
• 4:58
  I
• 4:58
  was
• 4:58
  doing
• 4:58
  more
• 4:58
  stuff
• 4:59
  in
• 4:59
  the
• 4:59
  week
• 4:59
  with,
• 5:00
  when,
• 5:00
  you
• 5:00
  know,
• 5:00
  weddings
• 5:01
  were
• 5:01
  a
• 5:01
  bit
• 5:01
  quieter
• 5:02
  with
• 5:02
  the,
• 5:02
  with
• 5:02
  branding
• 5:03
  and
• 5:03
  everything
• 5:03
  as
• 5:03
  you
• 5:04
  know.
• 5:05
  And
• 5:06
  yeah,
• 5:06
  I
• 5:06
  think
• 5:06
  as
• 5:07
  my
• 5:07
  children
• 5:07
  got
• 5:07
  older
• 5:08
  I
• 5:08
  found
• 5:09
  that
• 5:09
  I
• 5:09
  wanted
• 5:09
  to
• 5:09
  do
• 5:10
  something
• 5:10
  that's
• 5:10
  a
• 5:10
  little
• 5:10
  bit
• 5:11
  more
• 5:11
  kind
• 5:11
  of,
• 5:12
  that
• 5:12
  was
• 5:12
  less
• 5:13
  weekend
• 5:13
  based,
• 5:14
  I
• 5:14
  guess
• 5:14
  because
• 5:14
  my
• 5:15
  obviously
• 5:16
  wedding
• 5:16
  business
• 5:17
  was
• 5:18
  very
• 5:18
  weekend
• 5:18
  heavy.
• 5:19
  And
• 5:19
  then
• 5:19
  I
• 5:20
  also
• 5:20
  had
• 5:20
  a
• 5:20
  kind
• 5:20
  of
• 5:20
  a.
• 5:21
  Quite
• 5:21
  a
• 5:21
  big
• 5:22
  event
• 5:22
  in
• 5:22
  my
• 5:22
  life
• 5:22
  that
• 5:23
  happened
• 5:23
  in
• 5:23
  2023
• 5:24
  when
• 5:24
  my
• 5:24
  mum
• 5:25
  passed
• 5:25
  away
• 5:25
  quite
• 5:26
  suddenly
• 5:26
  and
• 5:26
  she
• 5:27
  was.
• 5:28
  It
• 5:28
  was
• 5:28
  all
• 5:29
  kind
• 5:29
  of
• 5:29
  quite
• 5:29
  unexpected
• 5:30
  and
• 5:30
  I
• 5:31
  kind
• 5:31
  of
• 5:31
  had
• 5:31
  to
• 5:32
  work
• 5:32
  on
• 5:33
  all
• 5:33
  of
• 5:33
  the
• 5:34
  admin
• 5:34
  that
• 5:34
  comes
• 5:35
  with,
• 5:35
  with
• 5:35
  that
• 5:35
  When.
• 5:36
  Which
• 5:36
  is
• 5:36
  difficult
• 5:36
  enough
• 5:37
  when
• 5:37
  you're
• 5:37
  in
• 5:38
  a.
• 5:38
  You
• 5:38
  know,
• 5:38
  when
• 5:39
  you're
• 5:39
  going
• 5:39
  through
• 5:39
  a
• 5:39
  grieving
• 5:40
  process,
• 5:40
  I
• 5:40
  guess.
• 5:41
  But
• 5:42
  when.
• 5:43
  After
• 5:44
  my
• 5:44
  mum
• 5:44
  passed
• 5:44
  away,
• 5:44
  I
• 5:45
  kind
• 5:45
  of
• 5:45
  discovered
• 5:45
  this
• 5:45
  thing
• 5:46
  that
• 5:46
  she
• 5:46
  was.
• 5:46
  Had
• 5:47
  been
• 5:47
  doing
• 5:47
  a
• 5:47
  lot
• 5:47
  and
• 5:47
  she
• 5:47
  talked
• 5:48
  to
• 5:48
  me
• 5:48
  about
• 5:48
  it
• 5:48
  a
• 5:48
  lot,
• 5:49
  which
• 5:49
  is
• 5:49
  called
• 5:49
  Zentangle,
• 5:50
  which
• 5:50
  is
• 5:51
  this,
• 5:51
  like,
• 5:51
  mindful
• 5:52
  draw.
• 5:53
  And
• 5:53
  so
• 5:54
  I
• 5:55
  kind
• 5:55
  of
• 5:55
  looked
• 5:55
  into
• 5:56
  that
• 5:56
  a
• 5:56
  little
• 5:56
  bit
• 5:56
  more
• 5:56
  and
• 5:56
  kind
• 5:57
  of
• 5:57
  tried
• 5:57
  it
• 5:57
  out
• 5:57
  a
• 5:57
  bit
• 5:58
  more.
• 5:58
  I've
• 5:58
  always
• 5:58
  been
• 5:58
  quite
• 5:58
  arty
• 5:59
  and
• 5:59
  creative,
• 5:59
  I
• 5:59
  guess,
• 5:59
  which
• 6:00
  took
• 6:00
  me
• 6:00
  to
• 6:00
  the
• 6:01
  kind
• 6:01
  of
• 6:01
  wedding
• 6:01
  photography
• 6:02
  element,
• 6:03
  an
• 6:03
  aspect
• 6:04
  of
• 6:04
  kind
• 6:04
  of
• 6:04
  running
• 6:04
  my
• 6:04
  business.
• 6:05
  You
• 6:05
  have
• 6:05
  to
• 6:05
  have
• 6:05
  creative
• 6:06
  bones
• 6:07
  in
• 6:07
  your
• 6:07
  body
• 6:07
  if
• 6:07

• 6:09
  for.
• 6:09
  For
• 6:09
  your.
• 6:10
  For
• 6:10
  your
• 6:10
  business.
• 6:11
  And
• 6:11
  yeah,
• 6:12
  I'd
• 6:12
  kind
• 6:12
  of.
• 6:12
  My
• 6:13
  mom
• 6:13
  had
• 6:13
  introduced
• 6:13
  me
• 6:13
  to
• 6:14
  it
• 6:14
  when.
• 6:15
  When
• 6:16
  in
• 6:16
  Covid,
• 6:16
  actually.
• 6:17
  And
• 6:17
  it
• 6:17
  was
• 6:18
  a
• 6:18
  really
• 6:18
  nice
• 6:19
  way
• 6:19
  of
• 6:19
  kind
• 6:19
  of
• 6:20
  switching
• 6:21
  off
• 6:21
  and
• 6:21
  kind
• 6:21
  of
• 6:22
  getting
• 6:22
  a
• 6:22
  bit
• 6:22
  of
• 6:22
  kind
• 6:23
  of
• 6:23
  creative
• 6:23
  time,
• 6:24
  but
• 6:24
  without
• 6:24
  too
• 6:24
  much
• 6:24
  pressure
• 6:25
  or,
• 6:25
  you
• 6:25
  know,
• 6:25
  it
• 6:26
  was
• 6:26
  just
• 6:26
  kind
• 6:26
  of
• 6:26
  nice
• 6:26
  and
• 6:27
  quiet
• 6:27
  and
• 6:27
  you
• 6:27
  could
• 6:27
  sit
• 6:27
  down
• 6:28
  and
• 6:28
  do
• 6:28
  this
• 6:28
  really
• 6:28
  nice
• 6:29
  drawing
• 6:30
  meditation
• 6:30
  almost
• 6:31
  in
• 6:31
  a
• 6:31
  really
• 6:32
  busy
• 6:32
  time.
• 6:32
  But
• 6:32
  I
• 6:32
  had
• 6:33
  obviously
• 6:33
  a
• 6:33
  newborn
• 6:33
  or
• 6:34
  I
• 6:34
  was
• 6:34
  about
• 6:34
  to
• 6:34
  have
• 6:34
  a
• 6:34
  newborn
• 6:35
  when
• 6:35
  I
• 6:35
  first
• 6:36
  did
• 6:36
  it
• 6:36
  and
• 6:36
  it
• 6:36
  was
• 6:37
  all
• 6:37
  a
• 6:37
  bit
• 6:37
  too
• 6:38
  much,
• 6:38
  really
• 6:38
  too
• 6:39
  much
• 6:39
  else
• 6:39
  going
• 6:39
  on.
• 6:40
  But
• 6:40
  yeah,
• 6:40
  revisited
• 6:40
  it
• 6:41
  once
• 6:41
  my
• 6:41
  mum
• 6:41
  had
• 6:41
  passed
• 6:42
  away
• 6:42
  and
• 6:42
  found
• 6:42
  all
• 6:43
  of
• 6:43
  her,
• 6:43
  you
• 6:43
  know,
• 6:43
  her
• 6:44
  kit
• 6:44
  and
• 6:44
  things
• 6:44
  for
• 6:45
  it.
• 6:45
  She
• 6:45
  was
• 6:45
  a
• 6:45
  certified
• 6:45
  teacher
• 6:46
  of
• 6:46
  this,
• 6:47
  of
• 6:47
  the
• 6:47
  Zentangle
• 6:48
  method.
• 6:48
  And
• 6:49
  yeah,
• 6:49
  basically
• 6:49
  just
• 6:50
  kind
• 6:50
  of
• 6:51
  rediscovered
• 6:51
  it
• 6:51
  from
• 6:51
  there
• 6:52
  and
• 6:53
  ended
• 6:53
  up
• 6:53
  becoming
• 6:53
  a
• 6:54
  certified
• 6:54
  teacher
• 6:54
  of
• 6:54
  this
• 6:55
  drawing
• 6:55
  method
• 6:55
  myself.
• 6:56
  And
• 6:57
  then
• 6:57
  decided,
• 6:58
  because,
• 6:58
  you
• 6:58
  know,
• 6:58
  that's
• 6:59
  what
• 6:59
  I
• 6:59
  do,
• 7:00
  I
• 7:00
  set
• 7:00
  up
• 7:00
  a
• 7:01
  business
• 7:01
  to
• 7:01
  teach
• 7:01
  other
• 7:02
  people
• 7:02
  because
• 7:02
  I
• 7:02
  found
• 7:02
  it
• 7:03
  really,
• 7:03
  really
• 7:03
  helpful,
• 7:04
  especially
• 7:04
  when
• 7:05
  I
• 7:05
  was
• 7:05
  in
• 7:05
  those
• 7:05
  kind
• 7:05
  of
• 7:06
  moments
• 7:06
  of
• 7:07
  coming
• 7:07
  back
• 7:08
  into
• 7:08
  weddings
• 7:08
  after
• 7:09
  Covid.
• 7:09
  Obviously
• 7:09
  we
• 7:10
  know
• 7:10
  that
• 7:10
  Covid
• 7:10
  shut
• 7:11
  everything
• 7:11
  down
• 7:11
  for
• 7:12
  a
• 7:12
  couple
• 7:12
  of
• 7:12
  years,
• 7:12
  but
• 7:13
  then
• 7:13
  after
• 7:13
  that
• 7:14
  there
• 7:14
  was
• 7:14
  a
• 7:14
  whole
• 7:14
  load
• 7:15
  of
• 7:15
  kind
• 7:15
  of
• 7:15
  trying
• 7:15
  to
• 7:15
  fit
• 7:16
  all
• 7:16
  of
• 7:16
  the
• 7:16
  postponed
• 7:17
  weddings
• 7:17
  into
• 7:17
  that
• 7:18
  crazy
• 7:18
  time
• 7:18
  when,
• 7:19
  you
• 7:19
  know,
• 7:19
  people
• 7:19
  were
• 7:19
  booking
• 7:20
  things
• 7:20
  again.
• 7:20
  But
• 7:21
  there
• 7:21
  was
• 7:21
  still
• 7:21
  these
• 7:21
  weddings
• 7:22
  that
• 7:22
  had
• 7:22
  been
• 7:22
  postponed
• 7:23
  that
• 7:23
  you
• 7:23
  were
• 7:23
  trying
• 7:23
  to
• 7:24
  fit
• 7:24
  into
• 7:24
  the.
• 7:24
  Into
• 7:24
  the
• 7:25
  mix.
• 7:25
  And
• 7:25
  I
• 7:25
  was
• 7:25
  also
• 7:25
  then
• 7:26
  on
• 7:26
  maternity
• 7:27
  leave
• 7:27
  with
• 7:27
  two
• 7:27
  small
• 7:27
  children,
• 7:28
  so
• 7:28
  it
• 7:28
  was
• 7:28
  a
• 7:28
  really
• 7:29
  crazy
• 7:29
  time.
• 7:29
  But
• 7:30
  this
• 7:30
  was
• 7:30
  something
• 7:30
  that
• 7:31
  I
• 7:31
  found
• 7:31
  in
• 7:32
  that
• 7:32
  time
• 7:32
  when
• 7:32
  I
• 7:33
  was
• 7:33
  feeling
• 7:33
  really
• 7:34
  burnt
• 7:34
  out
• 7:34
  and
• 7:35
  it
• 7:35
  was
• 7:35
  all
• 7:35
  too
• 7:35
  much.
• 7:36
  I
• 7:36
  found
• 7:36
  that
• 7:37
  this
• 7:37
  was
• 7:37
  a
• 7:37
  really
• 7:37
  helpful
• 7:38
  tool
• 7:38
  to
• 7:38
  kind
• 7:38
  of
• 7:39
  switch
• 7:39
  my
• 7:39
  brain
• 7:39
  off
• 7:41
  a
• 7:41
  little
• 7:41
  bit
• 7:41
  and
• 7:42
  take.
• 7:42
  Come
• 7:42
  away
• 7:43
  from
• 7:43
  that
• 7:43
  hectic
• 7:44
  element
• 7:44
  of,
• 7:44
  you
• 7:45
  know,
• 7:45
  the
• 7:45
  crazy
• 7:45
  wedding
• 7:46
  season
• 7:46
  and
• 7:46
  alongside
• 7:47
  having
• 7:47
  a
• 7:48
  family,
• 7:48
  alongside
• 7:49
  all
• 7:49
  these
• 7:49
  postponements
• 7:50
  that
• 7:50
  were
• 7:50
  happening
• 7:51
  or,
• 7:51
  you
• 7:52
  know,
• 7:52
  the
• 7:52
  postponements
• 7:52
  that
• 7:53
  were
• 7:53
  happening
• 7:53
  after
• 7:53
  having
• 7:53
  been
• 7:54
  postponed,
• 7:54
  I
• 7:54
  suppose.
• 7:55
  And,
• 7:56
  yeah,
• 7:56
  this
• 7:56
  kind
• 7:57
  of
• 7:57
  quiet
• 7:58
  time
• 7:58
  that
• 7:58
  I
• 7:58
  could
• 7:59
  spend
• 7:59
  where
• 8:00
  my.
• 8:00
  My
• 8:00
  brain
• 8:01
  was
• 8:01
  not
• 8:01
  thinking
• 8:02
  about
• 8:02
  all
• 8:02
  the
• 8:03
  other
• 8:03
  plates
• 8:03
  I
• 8:04
  was
• 8:04
  trying
• 8:04
  to
• 8:04
  spin,
• 8:05
  really,
• 8:05
  I
• 8:05
  found
• 8:05
  it
• 8:06
  was
• 8:06
  really,
• 8:06
  really
• 8:06
  helpful
• 8:07
  to
• 8:07
  me.
• 8:08
  And
• 8:08
  so,
• 8:08
  yeah,
• 8:08
  when
• 8:09
  I
• 8:09
  started
• 8:09
  doing
• 8:10
  a
• 8:10
  business,
• 8:11
  I
• 8:11
  felt
• 8:11
  like
• 8:11
  I
• 8:11
  could
• 8:11
  help
• 8:12
  other
• 8:12
  people
• 8:12
  with
• 8:12
  it,
• 8:12
  too.
• 8:13
  One
• 8:13
  of
• 8:13
  the
• 8:13
  privileges
• 8:13
  for
• 8:14
  me,
• 8:14
  especially
• 8:14
  when
• 8:14
  I
• 8:15
  work
• 8:15
  with
• 8:15
  people
• 8:15
  for
• 8:15
  a
• 8:16
  long
• 8:16
  time,
• 8:16
  is
• 8:17
  that
• 8:17
  I
• 8:17
  get
• 8:17
  to
• 8:17
  see
• 8:17
  people
• 8:18
  walking
• 8:18
  through
• 8:18
  all
• 8:19
  these
• 8:19
  different
• 8:19
  aspects
• 8:20
  of
• 8:20
  life.
• 8:20
  And
• 8:20
  we
• 8:21
  talked
• 8:21
  about
• 8:21
  the
• 8:22
  fact
• 8:22
  that
• 8:22
  we've
• 8:22
  known
• 8:22
  each
• 8:23
  over
• 8:23
  a
• 8:24
  decade
• 8:24
  now,
• 8:24
  which
• 8:24
  is
• 8:24
  absolutely
• 8:25
  crazy
• 8:25
  to
• 8:25
  say,
• 8:26
  but
• 8:26
  I've
• 8:26
  seen
• 8:27
  that
• 8:27
  journey
• 8:27
  for
• 8:28
  you
• 8:28
  and
• 8:28
  I've
• 8:28
  seen
• 8:29
  it
• 8:29
  for
• 8:29
  so
• 8:29
  many
• 8:30
  other
• 8:30
  people,
• 8:30
  and
• 8:30
  I
• 8:30
  don't
• 8:30
  think
• 8:31
  we
• 8:31
  talk
• 8:31
  about
• 8:31
  it
• 8:31
  enough
• 8:31
  where
• 8:32
  we
• 8:32
  have
• 8:32
  these
• 8:32
  massive
• 8:33
  life
• 8:33
  changes.
• 8:33
  And
• 8:33
  I
• 8:34
  think
• 8:34
  when
• 8:34
  you're
• 8:34
  just
• 8:34
  seeing
• 8:34
  the
• 8:35
  Instagram
• 8:35
  surface
• 8:36
  of
• 8:36
  a
• 8:36
  business,
• 8:36
  it
• 8:36
  all
• 8:36
  just
• 8:37
  ticks
• 8:37
  along
• 8:37
  fine.
• 8:38
  But
• 8:38
  actually,
• 8:38
  the
• 8:38
  reality
• 8:39
  behind
• 8:39
  it
• 8:39
  is
• 8:39
  very
• 8:40
  different
• 8:40
  for
• 8:40
  everyone.
• 8:40
  And
• 8:40
  I've
• 8:41
  watched
• 8:41
  you
• 8:41
  be
• 8:41
  really
• 8:42
  successful
• 8:42
  as
• 8:42
  a
• 8:43
  photographer
• 8:43
  and
• 8:43
  absolutely
• 8:44
  own
• 8:44
  your
• 8:44
  craft,
• 8:45
  and
• 8:45
  then
• 8:45
  I've
• 8:45
  watched
• 8:46
  you
• 8:46
  have
• 8:46
  children
• 8:47
  and
• 8:47
  seen
• 8:47
  how
• 8:48
  that
• 8:48
  was
• 8:48
  difficult
• 8:48
  and.
• 8:49
  And
• 8:49
  it's
• 8:49
  difficult
• 8:49
  for
• 8:50
  all
• 8:50
  of
• 8:50
  us
• 8:50
  to
• 8:50
  suddenly
• 8:50
  shift
• 8:51
  how
• 8:51
  you
• 8:51
  run
• 8:51
  business
• 8:52
  and
• 8:52
  change
• 8:52
  your
• 8:53
  mindset
• 8:53
  and
• 8:53
  then
• 8:53
  see
• 8:54
  what
• 8:54
  happened
• 8:54
  with
• 8:54
  your
• 8:55
  mum
• 8:55
  and
• 8:55
  everything
• 8:55
  that
• 8:56
  you've
• 8:56
  been
• 8:56
  through
• 8:56
  there.
• 8:57
  And,
• 8:57
  you
• 8:58
  know,
• 8:58
  I
• 8:58
  think
• 8:58
  it's
• 8:58
  just
• 8:59
  important
• 8:59
  for
• 8:59
  us
• 8:59
  to
• 9:00
  stop
• 9:00
  and
• 9:00
  pause
• 9:00
  for
• 9:00
  a
• 9:01
  second
• 9:01
  because
• 9:01
  there
• 9:01
  will
• 9:01
  be
• 9:01
  people
• 9:02
  listening
• 9:02
  that
• 9:02
  are
• 9:02
  also
• 9:03
  walking
• 9:03
  through
• 9:03
  all
• 9:03
  of
• 9:04
  these
• 9:04
  things.
• 9:04
  And
• 9:04
  I
• 9:04
  think
• 9:05
  sometimes
• 9:05
  we
• 9:05
  just
• 9:06
  keep
• 9:06
  on
• 9:06
  piling
• 9:06
  them
• 9:07
  on
• 9:07
  top
• 9:07
  of
• 9:07
  each
• 9:07
  other.
• 9:08
  And
• 9:08
  it
• 9:08
  sounds
• 9:09
  like
• 9:09
  that
• 9:09
  was
• 9:09
  what
• 9:09
  you
• 9:09
  did
• 9:10
  for
• 9:10
  quite
• 9:10
  a
• 9:10
  long
• 9:10
  time
• 9:11
  where
• 9:11
  you're
• 9:11
  just
• 9:11
  like.
• 9:12
  And
• 9:12
  I
• 9:12
  just
• 9:12
  can
• 9:12
  add
• 9:13
  another
• 9:13
  thing
• 9:13
  and
• 9:13
  then
• 9:14
  just
• 9:14
  another
• 9:14
  thing
• 9:14
  and
• 9:15
  then
• 9:15
  just
• 9:15
  another
• 9:15
  thing,
• 9:16
  but
• 9:16
  eventually
• 9:17
  it's.
• 9:17
  It's
• 9:18
  just
• 9:18
  too
• 9:18
  much.
• 9:19
  So
• 9:19
  is
• 9:19
  there
• 9:19
  a
• 9:19
  point
• 9:20
  that
• 9:20
  you
• 9:20
  can
• 9:20
  remember
• 9:21
  in
• 9:21
  that
• 9:21
  journey
• 9:22
  where
• 9:22
  you
• 9:22
  thought,
• 9:22
  I've
• 9:23
  burnt
• 9:23
  out.
• 9:23
  This
• 9:23
  has
• 9:24
  got
• 9:24
  too
• 9:24
  much,
• 9:24
  100%.
• 9:25
  I
• 9:25
  think
• 9:26
  the
• 9:26
  first
• 9:26
  point
• 9:26
  before
• 9:27
  kind
• 9:27
  of
• 9:27
  even
• 9:28
  we
• 9:28
  added
• 9:28
  Covid
• 9:29
  into
• 9:29
  the
• 9:29
  mix,
• 9:29
  was
• 9:30
  that
• 9:30
  when
• 9:30
  I
• 9:30
  was
• 9:31
  working
• 9:32
  in
• 9:32
  weddings
• 9:33
  with
• 9:34
  my
• 9:34
  daughter,
• 9:35
  and
• 9:36
  so
• 9:36
  for
• 9:37
  context,
• 9:37
  the
• 9:37
  daughter
• 9:38
  that
• 9:38
  I'm
• 9:38
  talking
• 9:38
  about
• 9:38
  is
• 9:39
  now
• 9:39
  seven.
• 9:39
  So
• 9:39
  this
• 9:40
  is
• 9:40
  quite
• 9:40
  a
• 9:40
  long
• 9:40
  time
• 9:40
  ago.
• 9:41
  It's
• 9:41
  funny,
• 9:42
  actually,
• 9:42
  I
• 9:42
  was
• 9:42
  looking
• 9:42
  this
• 9:42
  morning
• 9:43
  through
• 9:43
  some.
• 9:43
  Some
• 9:43
  of
• 9:43
  my
• 9:44
  previous
• 9:44
  weddings
• 9:44
  from
• 9:44
  2017
• 9:45
  and
• 9:45
  2018,
• 9:46
  and
• 9:46
  I
• 9:47
  can
• 9:47
  remember
• 9:47
  thinking,
• 9:48
  oh,
• 9:48
  that's
• 9:48
  the
• 9:48
  wedding
• 9:49
  that
• 9:49
  I
• 9:49
  did
• 9:49
  just
• 9:49
  after
• 9:50
  I
• 9:50
  found
• 9:50
  out
• 9:50
  I
• 9:50
  was
• 9:50
  pregnant.
• 9:51
  And
• 9:51
  it's
• 9:51
  actually
• 9:51
  quite
• 9:52
  early
• 9:52
  on
• 9:52
  in
• 9:52
  my
• 9:52
  photography
• 9:53
  career,
• 9:53
  I
• 9:54
  guess
• 9:54
  it
• 9:55
  was
• 9:55
  in
• 9:55
  2017.
• 9:55
  And
• 9:56
  then
• 9:56
  she
• 9:56
  was
• 9:56
  born
• 9:56
  in,
• 9:56
  in
• 9:57
  early
• 9:57
  2018,
• 9:58
  right
• 9:58
  at
• 9:58
  the
• 9:58
  beginning
• 9:58
  of
• 9:58
  wedding
• 9:59
  season.
• 9:59
  And
• 9:59
  as
• 10:00
  I
• 10:00
  said,
• 10:00
  I
• 10:00
  kind
• 10:00
  of
• 10:00
  just
• 10:01
  carried
• 10:01
  on
• 10:01
  as
• 10:01
  normal.
• 10:02
  Like
• 10:02
  I.
• 10:02
  There
• 10:02
  were
• 10:03
  maybe
• 10:03
  a
• 10:03
  handful
• 10:03
  of
• 10:04
  weddings
• 10:04
  that
• 10:04
  I
• 10:04
  handed
• 10:04
  off
• 10:05
  to
• 10:05
  other
• 10:05
  photographers,
• 10:05
  but
• 10:06
  I
• 10:06
  still
• 10:06
  edited
• 10:06
  them
• 10:06
  all
• 10:07
  myself
• 10:07
  and
• 10:07
  went
• 10:08
  back
• 10:08
  when
• 10:08
  she
• 10:08
  was
• 10:09
  2,
• 10:09
  2
• 10:09
  months
• 10:09
  old
• 10:10
  to
• 10:10
  go
• 10:10
  and
• 10:10
  shoot
• 10:10
  weddings.
• 10:11
  And
• 10:11
  I
• 10:12
  think
• 10:12
  some
• 10:12
  of
• 10:12
  that
• 10:12
  is
• 10:12
  like
• 10:12
  the
• 10:13
  naivety
• 10:13
  of,
• 10:13
  you
• 10:13
  know,
• 10:14
  not
• 10:14
  knowing
• 10:15
  what
• 10:15
  it's
• 10:15
  going
• 10:15
  to
• 10:15
  be
• 10:15
  like
• 10:15
  when
• 10:16
  you
• 10:16
  have
• 10:16
  a
• 10:16
  baby.
• 10:17
  But
• 10:18
  I
• 10:18
  did.
• 10:18
  In
• 10:18
  hindsight,
• 10:19
  I
• 10:19
  definitely
• 10:19
  think
• 10:20
  that
• 10:20
  I
• 10:20
  had,
• 10:20
  like,
• 10:21
  I
• 10:21
  just
• 10:21
  had
• 10:21
  too
• 10:22
  much
• 10:22
  pressure
• 10:22
  on
• 10:22
  myself.
• 10:23
  Like
• 10:23
  I
• 10:23
  was
• 10:23
  trying
• 10:23
  to
• 10:23
  deliver
• 10:24
  everything
• 10:24
  in
• 10:25
  the
• 10:25
  time
• 10:25
  that
• 10:25
  I
• 10:25
  said
• 10:26
  I
• 10:26
  was
• 10:26
  going
• 10:26
  to
• 10:26
  deliver
• 10:26
  it,
• 10:27
  whilst
• 10:27
  also
• 10:27
  navigating
• 10:28
  motherhood
• 10:29
  as
• 10:29
  a
• 10:29
  first
• 10:29
  time
• 10:30
  mom.
• 10:30
  And
• 10:31
  I,
• 10:31
  looking
• 10:31
  back,
• 10:32
  I
• 10:32
  definitely
• 10:32
  think
• 10:32
  I
• 10:33
  had
• 10:33
  elements
• 10:33
  of
• 10:34
  postnatal
• 10:34
  depression.
• 10:35
  Like
• 10:35
  I
• 10:35
  was
• 10:35
  withdrawn
• 10:36
  from
• 10:37
  people,
• 10:37
  I
• 10:37
  was
• 10:37
  only
• 10:38
  thinking
• 10:38
  about
• 10:38
  work
• 10:39
  and
• 10:39
  I
• 10:39
  wasn't
• 10:39
  sleeping
• 10:40
  well.
• 10:40
  Even
• 10:40
  when
• 10:40
  I
• 10:40
  was
• 10:40
  able
• 10:41
  to
• 10:41
  sleep.
• 10:41
  My
• 10:41
  daughter
• 10:41
  was
• 10:41
  actually
• 10:42
  a
• 10:42
  really
• 10:42
  good
• 10:42
  sleeper.
• 10:44
  So
• 10:44
  it
• 10:44
  was,
• 10:44
  it
• 10:44
  was
• 10:44
  definitely
• 10:45
  definite
• 10:45
  elements
• 10:46
  of
• 10:46
  burnout
• 10:46
  at
• 10:46
  that
• 10:47
  time
• 10:47
  for
• 10:47
  sure.
• 10:47
  And
• 10:48
  I
• 10:48
  think
• 10:48
  if
• 10:48
  I
• 10:49
  could
• 10:49
  go
• 10:49
  back
• 10:49
  to
• 10:50
  me,
• 10:50
  then
• 10:50
  I
• 10:51
  would
• 10:51
  definitely
• 10:51
  tell
• 10:51
  myself
• 10:52
  that
• 10:52
  I
• 10:52
  needed
• 10:52
  to
• 10:53
  switch
• 10:53
  off
• 10:53
  and
• 10:54
  like
• 10:54
  take
• 10:55
  a
• 10:55
  break
• 10:55
  because
• 10:55
  it,
• 10:56
  it's
• 10:56
  a
• 10:56
  lot.
• 10:57
  And
• 10:57
  then
• 10:58
  again,
• 10:58
  like,
• 10:58
  I
• 10:58
  didn't
• 10:59
  want
• 10:59
  to
• 10:59
  do
• 10:59
  that
• 10:59
  again.
• 11:00
  When
• 11:00
  I
• 11:01
  had
• 11:01
  my
• 11:01
  second
• 11:02
  child
• 11:02
  and
• 11:03
  I,
• 11:03
  when
• 11:03
  I
• 11:03
  found
• 11:03
  out
• 11:04
  I
• 11:04
  was
• 11:04
  pregnant
• 11:04
  with
• 11:04
  him,
• 11:04
  it
• 11:05
  was
• 11:05
  early
• 11:06
  in
• 11:06
  the
• 11:06
  year
• 11:06
  and
• 11:06
  I
• 11:06
  remember
• 11:07
  thinking,
• 11:07
  well,
• 11:07
  well,
• 11:07
  I've
• 11:08
  had
• 11:08
  like
• 11:08
  maybe
• 11:08
  eight
• 11:09
  weddings
• 11:09
  booked
• 11:09
  in
• 11:09
  for
• 11:10
  2021.
• 11:11
  So
• 11:11
  I
• 11:11
  was
• 11:11
  like,
• 11:11
  he's
• 11:11
  gonna
• 11:12
  be
• 11:12
  born
• 11:12
  in
• 11:12
  November.
• 11:12
  He
• 11:12
  would.
• 11:13
  I
• 11:13
  didn't
• 11:13
  know
• 11:13
  it
• 11:13
  was
• 11:13
  a
• 11:13
  he
• 11:13
  at
• 11:13
  the
• 11:13
  time,
• 11:14
  but
• 11:14
  he.
• 11:14
  My
• 11:14
  baby
• 11:15
  was
• 11:15
  born
• 11:15
  in
• 11:15
  November.
• 11:16
  I
• 11:16
  could
• 11:17
  sort
• 11:17
  of
• 11:17
  see
• 11:17
  ahead
• 11:18
  that
• 11:18
  I
• 11:18
  didn't
• 11:19
  want
• 11:19
  to
• 11:19
  have
• 11:19
  a
• 11:19
  year
• 11:20
  full
• 11:20
  of
• 11:20
  weddings
• 11:20
  in
• 11:21
  the
• 11:21
  same
• 11:21
  way
• 11:21
  that
• 11:21
  I
• 11:21
  did
• 11:21
  when
• 11:22
  my
• 11:22
  daughter
• 11:22
  was
• 11:22
  born.
• 11:23
  And
• 11:23
  so
• 11:23
  I
• 11:23
  thought,
• 11:23
  right,
• 11:24
  I'm
• 11:24
  going
• 11:24
  to
• 11:24
  start
• 11:24
  taking
• 11:25
  bookings
• 11:25
  for
• 11:25
  next
• 11:25
  year
• 11:26
  at
• 11:26
  this
• 11:26
  point.
• 11:26
  And
• 11:27
  this
• 11:27
  was
• 11:27
  just
• 11:27
  before
• 11:28
  COVID
• 11:29
  hit
• 11:29
  maybe
• 11:29
  a
• 11:29
  few
• 11:30
  weeks
• 11:30
  beforehand.
• 11:31
  And
• 11:31
  then
• 11:31
  obviously
• 11:31
  everything
• 11:32
  for
• 11:32
  that
• 11:32
  year
• 11:32
  that
• 11:33
  I
• 11:33
  had
• 11:33
  planned
• 11:33
  to
• 11:33
  do
• 11:33
  when
• 11:34
  I
• 11:34
  was
• 11:34
  pregnant
• 11:34
  ended
• 11:35
  up
• 11:35
  just
• 11:35
  not
• 11:35
  happening
• 11:36
  and
• 11:36
  then
• 11:37
  moving
• 11:37
  to
• 11:37
  the
• 11:38
  following
• 11:38
  year.
• 11:38
  So
• 11:38
  that
• 11:39
  I
• 11:39
  kind
• 11:39
  of,
• 11:39
  I
• 11:40
  tried
• 11:40
  to
• 11:40
  engineer
• 11:40
  it
• 11:41
  so
• 11:41
  that
• 11:41
  I
• 11:41
  knew
• 11:41
  I
• 11:41
  wasn't
• 11:42
  going
• 11:42
  to
• 11:42
  be
• 11:42
  burnt
• 11:42
  out
• 11:43
  in
• 11:43
  that
• 11:43
  year.
• 11:44
  But
• 11:44
  then
• 11:44
  I
• 11:44
  think
• 11:45
  I
• 11:45
  ended
• 11:45
  up
• 11:45
  having
• 11:46
  30
• 11:47
  weddings
• 11:47
  instead
• 11:47
  of
• 11:47
  10,
• 11:49
  which
• 11:49
  was,
• 11:50
  yeah,
• 11:51
  not,
• 11:51
  not
• 11:51
  ideal.
• 11:52
  Although
• 11:52
  obviously
• 11:52
  then,
• 11:53
  you
• 11:53
  know,
• 11:53
  with
• 11:53
  COVID
• 11:54
  extending
• 11:55
  into
• 11:55
  2021,
• 11:56
  it
• 11:56
  ended
• 11:56
  up
• 11:57
  being
• 11:57
  only
• 11:57
  half
• 11:57
  that.
• 11:57
  So
• 11:58
  it
• 11:58
  was
• 11:58
  still
• 11:58
  more
• 11:58
  than
• 11:58
  I
• 11:59
  wanted
• 11:59
  to
• 11:59
  do,
• 11:59
  but
• 11:59
  it
• 11:59
  was,
• 12:00
  it
• 12:00
  was
• 12:00
  More
• 12:00
  stressful
• 12:01
  than
• 12:01
  I
• 12:01
  wanted
• 12:01
  it
• 12:01
  to
• 12:02
  be.
• 12:02
  But
• 12:03
  I
• 12:03
  think
• 12:03
  that,
• 12:03
  you
• 12:04
  know,
• 12:04
  the
• 12:04
  elements
• 12:05
  of
• 12:05
  kind
• 12:05
  of
• 12:05
  the.
• 12:06
  The
• 12:06
  burnout,
• 12:07
  like,
• 12:07
  the
• 12:07
  symptoms
• 12:07
  of
• 12:07
  it,
• 12:07
  I
• 12:08
  think
• 12:08
  in
• 12:08
  hindsight
• 12:09
  are
• 12:09
  actually
• 12:09
  really,
• 12:10
  like,
• 12:10
  they're
• 12:11
  really
• 12:11
  real.
• 12:11
  Like
• 12:12
  when
• 12:12
  you're
• 12:12
  burnt
• 12:13
  out,
• 12:13
  you
• 12:14
  kind
• 12:14
  of.
• 12:14
  You
• 12:14
  find
• 12:15
  yourself
• 12:15
  more
• 12:15
  detached
• 12:16
  from
• 12:16
  things.
• 12:16
  I
• 12:17
  think
• 12:17
  you
• 12:17
  find
• 12:18
  almost
• 12:18
  like
• 12:18
  you're
• 12:18
  demotivated
• 12:19
  to
• 12:20
  kind
• 12:20
  of
• 12:21
  to
• 12:21
  do
• 12:21
  the
• 12:22
  work
• 12:22
  that
• 12:22
  you
• 12:22
  need.
• 12:22
  You're
• 12:23
  working
• 12:23
  so
• 12:23
  hard
• 12:23
  to
• 12:24
  do.
• 12:24
  It's
• 12:24
  a
• 12:25
  weird
• 12:25
  kind
• 12:25
  of,
• 12:25
  kind
• 12:25
  of
• 12:25
  contradiction
• 12:26
  in
• 12:26
  a
• 12:26
  way,
• 12:27
  but
• 12:28
  there's
• 12:28
  like
• 12:28
  physical
• 12:29
  elements
• 12:29
  of
• 12:30
  poor
• 12:30
  sleep
• 12:30
  and,
• 12:31
  you
• 12:31
  know,
• 12:31
  or
• 12:32
  insomnia.
• 12:32
  And
• 12:33
  like,
• 12:34
  I
• 12:34
  just
• 12:34
  think
• 12:34
  when
• 12:34
  you
• 12:35
  have
• 12:35
  that
• 12:35
  kind
• 12:35
  of
• 12:35
  repeated
• 12:36
  and
• 12:36
  prolonged
• 12:37
  high
• 12:37
  demand
• 12:38
  on
• 12:38
  you,
• 12:39
  but
• 12:39
  you've
• 12:40
  only
• 12:40
  got
• 12:41
  a
• 12:41
  certain
• 12:41
  amount
• 12:41
  of
• 12:41
  resources
• 12:42
  to
• 12:42
  kind
• 12:42
  of
• 12:42
  deliver,
• 12:43
  you
• 12:43
  know,
• 12:43
  and
• 12:43
  when
• 12:43
  you're
• 12:44
  your
• 12:44
  own
• 12:44
  business,
• 12:45
  there's
• 12:45
  that
• 12:45
  pressure
• 12:45
  of
• 12:46
  being
• 12:47
  everything
• 12:48
  and
• 12:48
  wearing
• 12:48
  all
• 12:49
  the
• 12:49
  hats.
• 12:49
  But
• 12:50
  then
• 12:50
  alongside
• 12:50
  that,
• 12:50
  obviously
• 12:51
  everyone's
• 12:51
  got
• 12:52
  their
• 12:52
  own
• 12:52
  pressures
• 12:52
  of
• 12:53
  home
• 12:53
  life,
• 12:53
  you
• 12:53
  know,
• 12:54
  with
• 12:54
  family
• 12:54
  and
• 12:54
  with,
• 12:55
  you
• 12:55
  know,
• 12:55
  perhaps
• 12:55
  even
• 12:55
  people
• 12:56
  are
• 12:56
  working
• 12:57
  with
• 12:57
  two
• 12:57
  jobs
• 12:57
  and
• 12:58
  having
• 12:58
  their.
• 12:59
  Their
• 12:59
  wedding
• 12:59
  business
• 13:00
  as
• 13:00
  a
• 13:00
  side
• 13:00
  hustle.
• 13:00
  And
• 13:01
  I
• 13:01
  think
• 13:01
  you
• 13:02
  just
• 13:02
  need
• 13:02
  to
• 13:02
  make
• 13:03
  sure
• 13:03
  that
• 13:03
  you're
• 13:03
  aware
• 13:03
  of
• 13:04
  what's
• 13:04
  going
• 13:04
  on
• 13:05
  in
• 13:05
  your
• 13:05
  brain.
• 13:07
  And
• 13:07
  also
• 13:07
  planning
• 13:08
  ahead,
• 13:08
  like,
• 13:08
  knowing
• 13:09
  that
• 13:09
  having.
• 13:10
  Seeing
• 13:10
  where
• 13:10
  the
• 13:10
  pressure
• 13:11
  points
• 13:11
  are
• 13:11
  going
• 13:11
  to
• 13:11
  be
• 13:12
  is
• 13:12
  really
• 13:12
  important
• 13:13
  because
• 13:13
  if
• 13:14
  you
• 13:14
  can
• 13:15
  try
• 13:15
  and
• 13:15
  manage
• 13:16
  that
• 13:17
  in
• 13:17
  advance,
• 13:18
  because
• 13:18
  the
• 13:18
  thing
• 13:18
  is
• 13:18
  with
• 13:18
  weddings,
• 13:19
  you
• 13:19
  end
• 13:19
  up
• 13:19
  taking
• 13:20
  so
• 13:20
  many
• 13:20
  bookings
• 13:20
  quite
• 13:21
  far
• 13:21
  in
• 13:21
  advance,
• 13:21
  don't
• 13:21
  you?
• 13:22
  So
• 13:22
  you
• 13:22
  can
• 13:23
  kind
• 13:23
  of
• 13:23
  see
• 13:24
  where
• 13:24
  those
• 13:24
  pressure
• 13:24
  points
• 13:24
  are
• 13:25
  going
• 13:25
  to
• 13:25
  be.
• 13:25
  And
• 13:25
  if
• 13:25
  you
• 13:25
  know
• 13:25
  it's
• 13:26
  going
• 13:26
  to
• 13:26
  be
• 13:26
  a
• 13:26
  really
• 13:26
  busy
• 13:26
  time,
• 13:27
  try
• 13:27
  and
• 13:27
  like,
• 13:28
  factor
• 13:28
  in
• 13:29
  some
• 13:29
  plans
• 13:30
  to
• 13:30
  help
• 13:30
  you
• 13:31
  manage
• 13:31
  that
• 13:31
  burnout
• 13:32
  that
• 13:32
  you
• 13:32
  know
• 13:33
  is
• 13:33
  potential
• 13:34
  potentially
• 13:34
  going
• 13:34
  to
• 13:34
  come.
• 13:35
  Often
• 13:35
  we
• 13:35
  end
• 13:35
  up
• 13:36
  in
• 13:36
  this
• 13:36
  kind
• 13:36
  of
• 13:36
  spiral
• 13:37
  as
• 13:37
  well.
• 13:38
  And
• 13:38
  I
• 13:38
  think
• 13:38
  you've
• 13:39
  probably
• 13:39
  seen
• 13:40
  that
• 13:40
  a
• 13:40
  little
• 13:40
  bit
• 13:40
  too,
• 13:41
  where
• 13:41
  we
• 13:41
  know
• 13:42
  that
• 13:42
  we
• 13:42
  need
• 13:42
  to
• 13:42
  take
• 13:42
  the
• 13:42
  pressure
• 13:43
  off
• 13:43
  because
• 13:43
  we've
• 13:43
  got
• 13:44
  too
• 13:44
  many
• 13:44
  things
• 13:44
  going
• 13:44
  on.
• 13:44
  But
• 13:45
  we
• 13:45
  also
• 13:45
  know
• 13:45
  if
• 13:45
  we
• 13:45
  take
• 13:45
  the
• 13:46
  pressure
• 13:46
  off,
• 13:46
  it
• 13:47
  might
• 13:47
  mean
• 13:47
  that
• 13:47
  income
• 13:47
  comes
• 13:48
  down
• 13:48
  and
• 13:48
  then
• 13:48
  we
• 13:48
  have
• 13:48
  that
• 13:49
  financial
• 13:49
  pressure
• 13:49
  of
• 13:50
  we're
• 13:50
  not
• 13:50
  bringing
• 13:50
  in
• 13:50
  so
• 13:51
  much
• 13:51
  income
• 13:51
  because
• 13:51
  we're
• 13:51
  not
• 13:51
  working
• 13:52
  so
• 13:52
  much.
• 13:52
  And
• 13:52
  then
• 13:52
  we
• 13:53
  then
• 13:53
  start
• 13:53
  piling
• 13:53
  it
• 13:54
  all
• 13:54
  back
• 13:54
  on
• 13:54
  and
• 13:54
  we
• 13:54
  kind
• 13:54
  of
• 13:55
  go
• 13:55
  round
• 13:55
  and
• 13:55
  round
• 13:55
  in
• 13:56
  these
• 13:56
  circles.
• 13:56
  And
• 13:56
  I
• 13:57
  think
• 13:57
  the
• 13:57
  other
• 13:57
  thing,
• 13:57
  particularly
• 13:58
  as
• 13:58
  a
• 13:59
  parent
• 13:59
  that
• 14:00
  I
• 14:00
  found
• 14:00
  is
• 14:00
  you
• 14:00
  also
• 14:01
  just
• 14:01
  become
• 14:01
  lower
• 14:01
  and
• 14:02
  lower
• 14:02
  in
• 14:02
  the
• 14:02
  pecking
• 14:02
  order
• 14:03
  because
• 14:03
  your
• 14:03
  own
• 14:04
  health
• 14:04
  and
• 14:04
  your
• 14:04
  own
• 14:05
  everything
• 14:05
  becomes
• 14:06
  lower
• 14:06
  than
• 14:07
  everything
• 14:07
  else
• 14:08
  because
• 14:08
  you're
• 14:08
  thinking
• 14:08
  about
• 14:09
  your
• 14:09
  clients
• 14:09
  and
• 14:09
  delivering
• 14:10
  for
• 14:10
  them
• 14:10
  and
• 14:10
  making
• 14:10
  sure
• 14:10
  they're
• 14:11
  happy
• 14:11
  and
• 14:11
  then
• 14:11
  you're
• 14:11
  thinking
• 14:11
  about
• 14:12
  your
• 14:12
  children,
• 14:12
  making
• 14:13
  sure
• 14:13
  they're
• 14:13
  happy
• 14:13
  and
• 14:14
  maybe
• 14:14
  a
• 14:14
  partner
• 14:14
  if
• 14:14
  you've
• 14:14
  got
• 14:14
  one
• 14:15
  of
• 14:15
  those,
• 14:15
  and
• 14:15
  making
• 14:15
  sure
• 14:15
  they're
• 14:16
  happy.
• 14:16
  And
• 14:16
  you're
• 14:17
  so
• 14:17
  low
• 14:17
  down
• 14:17
  the
• 14:18
  list
• 14:18
  that
• 14:18
  I
• 14:19
  think
• 14:19
  that's
• 14:19
  why
• 14:19
  we
• 14:19
  ignore
• 14:20
  these
• 14:20
  signs
• 14:20
  for
• 14:21
  so
• 14:21
  long
• 14:22
  now.
• 14:22
  I
• 14:22
  think
• 14:22
  the
• 14:23
  signs
• 14:23
  of
• 14:23
  burnout
• 14:23
  can
• 14:24
  be
• 14:24
  different
• 14:24
  for
• 14:25
  everyone.
• 14:25
  So
• 14:25
  I
• 14:25
  think
• 14:25
  it's
• 14:26
  helpful
• 14:26
  for
• 14:26
  us
• 14:26
  to
• 14:26
  talk
• 14:26
  about
• 14:27
  our
• 14:27
  own
• 14:27
  experiences
• 14:28
  and
• 14:28
  how
• 14:29
  we
• 14:29
  see
• 14:29
  it
• 14:29
  in
• 14:29
  ourselves.
• 14:30
  And
• 14:30
  I
• 14:30
  think
• 14:30
  it's
• 14:31
  a
• 14:31
  bit
• 14:31
  of
• 14:31
  a
• 14:31
  buzzword.
• 14:31
  People
• 14:32
  say,
• 14:32
  oh,
• 14:32
  you
• 14:32
  can
• 14:32
  get
• 14:32
  burnt
• 14:33
  out.
• 14:33
  And
• 14:33
  I
• 14:33
  do
• 14:33
  think
• 14:33
  there's
• 14:34
  like
• 14:34
  long
• 14:34
  term
• 14:34
  burnout.
• 14:35
  And
• 14:35
  I
• 14:35
  think
• 14:35
  there's
• 14:35
  also.
• 14:36
  I
• 14:36
  see
• 14:36
  short
• 14:37
  term
• 14:37
  burnout
• 14:38
  and
• 14:38
  I've
• 14:38
  got
• 14:38
  better
• 14:39
  over
• 14:40
  time
• 14:40
  of
• 14:40
  noticing
• 14:41
  my
• 14:42
  own
• 14:42
  signals
• 14:43
  of
• 14:43
  burnout.
• 14:44
  So
• 14:44
  I'd
• 14:44
  love
• 14:44
  to
• 14:44
  know
• 14:45
  from
• 14:45
  your
• 14:45
  perspective,
• 14:46
  what
• 14:46
  is
• 14:46
  it
• 14:46
  that
• 14:46
  shows
• 14:47
  you
• 14:47
  you're
• 14:47
  hitting
• 14:47
  that
• 14:47
  point.
• 14:48
  And
• 14:48
  then
• 14:48
  I'll
• 14:48
  share
• 14:48
  some
• 14:48
  of
• 14:49
  mine.
• 14:49
  I
• 14:49
  think
• 14:50
  what
• 14:50
  I.
• 14:50
  I
• 14:51
  think
• 14:51
  definitely
• 14:51
  one
• 14:51
  of
• 14:52
  the
• 14:52
  things
• 14:52
  for
• 14:52
  me
• 14:52
  is
• 14:52
  that
• 14:53
  I
• 14:53
  find
• 14:54
  myself
• 14:55
  procrastinating
• 14:55
  and
• 14:56
  I
• 14:56
  feel
• 14:56
  like
• 14:56
  that's
• 14:56
  a
• 14:56
  really
• 14:57
  kind
• 14:57
  of.
• 14:58
  It's.
• 14:58
  It's
• 14:58
  a
• 14:58
  bit
• 14:59
  of
• 14:59
  an
• 14:59
  oxymoron,
• 14:59
  isn't
• 15:00
  it?
• 15:00
  Like
• 15:00
  you're
• 15:00
  really,
• 15:00
  really
• 15:00
  busy
• 15:01
  and
• 15:02
  you
• 15:02
  end
• 15:02
  up
• 15:02
  doing
• 15:03
  stuff
• 15:03
  that's
• 15:03
  not
• 15:03
  useful.
• 15:04
  But
• 15:04
  for
• 15:05
  me,
• 15:05
  procrastination
• 15:06
  is
• 15:06
  quite
• 15:06
  a
• 15:06
  big
• 15:06
  one.
• 15:06
  Like,
• 15:07
  if
• 15:07
  I
• 15:07
  know
• 15:07
  that
• 15:07
  I've
• 15:08
  got
• 15:08
  loads
• 15:08
  and
• 15:08
  loads
• 15:08
  on
• 15:09
  my
• 15:09
  plate,
• 15:09
  I
• 15:09
  actually
• 15:09
  find
• 15:09
  it
• 15:10
  really
• 15:10
  hard
• 15:10
  sometimes
• 15:10
  to
• 15:11
  sit
• 15:11
  and
• 15:11
  get
• 15:11
  stuff
• 15:12
  done,
• 15:12
  which
• 15:12
  seems
• 15:12
  mad.
• 15:14
  But
• 15:14
  for
• 15:14
  me,
• 15:14
  procrastination,
• 15:15
  if
• 15:15
  I'm
• 15:16
  starting
• 15:16
  to
• 15:16
  procrastinate
• 15:17
  on
• 15:17
  things,
• 15:17
  I
• 15:17
  think
• 15:17
  I
• 15:17
  need.
• 15:18
  Think
• 15:18
  I
• 15:18
  need
• 15:18
  some
• 15:18
  time
• 15:18
  to
• 15:19
  like,
• 15:19
  reset
• 15:20
  and
• 15:20
  just
• 15:20
  like
• 15:20
  reevaluate,
• 15:22
  you
• 15:22
  know,
• 15:22
  the
• 15:22
  priorities
• 15:23
  here.
• 15:24
  That's
• 15:24
  one
• 15:25
  for
• 15:25
  me.
• 15:25
  And
• 15:26
  I
• 15:26
  also
• 15:26
  find,
• 15:26
  like,
• 15:28
  for
• 15:28
  me,
• 15:28
  sleep
• 15:29
  is
• 15:29
  a
• 15:29
  massive
• 15:29
  one.
• 15:30
  Like
• 15:30
  when
• 15:30
  my
• 15:30
  kids
• 15:31
  were
• 15:31
  little,
• 15:31
  obviously
• 15:31
  it
• 15:31
  was
• 15:32
  harder
• 15:32
  to
• 15:32
  identify
• 15:32
  because
• 15:33
  I
• 15:33
  wasn't
• 15:33
  really
• 15:33
  sleeping
• 15:34
  anyway,
• 15:34
  because
• 15:34
  my
• 15:35
  kids,
• 15:35
  especially
• 15:35
  my,
• 15:36
  my
• 15:36
  second
• 15:36
  child,
• 15:37
  was
• 15:37
  not
• 15:38
  a
• 15:38
  good
• 15:38
  sleeper.
• 15:39
  But
• 15:40
  I've
• 15:40
  definitely
• 15:41
  found
• 15:41
  personally,
• 15:42
  like,
• 15:42
  when
• 15:42
  there's
• 15:43
  a
• 15:43
  lot
• 15:43
  of
• 15:43
  stuff
• 15:43
  going
• 15:43
  on,
• 15:44
  like
• 15:44
  last
• 15:44
  year,
• 15:44
  for
• 15:44
  example,
• 15:45
  I
• 15:45
  had
• 15:45
  lots
• 15:45
  of
• 15:45
  weddings
• 15:46
  happening.
• 15:46
  I
• 15:47
  was
• 15:47
  running
• 15:47
  this,
• 15:48
  this
• 15:48
  new
• 15:48
  venture
• 15:49
  that
• 15:49
  I
• 15:49
  was
• 15:49
  trying
• 15:49
  to
• 15:49
  build
• 15:50
  up,
• 15:50
  but
• 15:50
  we
• 15:50
  were
• 15:51
  also
• 15:51
  moving
• 15:51
  house.
• 15:52
  There
• 15:52
  were
• 15:52
  still
• 15:52
  elements
• 15:52
  of
• 15:53
  sorting
• 15:53
  out
• 15:53
  my
• 15:53
  mum's
• 15:54
  estate
• 15:54
  that
• 15:54
  was
• 15:54
  happening
• 15:54
  and,
• 15:55
  and
• 15:55
  I.
• 15:55
  My
• 15:56
  sleep
• 15:56
  was
• 15:57
  really
• 15:57
  bad.
• 15:57
  Like,
• 15:57
  if
• 15:57
  I
• 15:58
  ever
• 15:58
  woke
• 15:58
  up
• 15:58
  in
• 15:58
  the
• 15:58
  night,
• 15:58
  I
• 15:59
  would
• 15:59
  find
• 15:59
  it
• 15:59
  really,
• 15:59
  really
• 15:59
  hard
• 16:00
  to
• 16:00
  get
• 16:00
  back
• 16:00
  to
• 16:00
  sleep
• 16:00
  again.
• 16:01
  And
• 16:02
  that,
• 16:02
  again,
• 16:02
  it's
• 16:02
  just
• 16:03
  part
• 16:03
  of
• 16:03
  like
• 16:03
  a
• 16:03
  vicious
• 16:03
  circle,
• 16:04
  isn't
• 16:04
  it?
• 16:04
  Because
• 16:04
  you're
• 16:05
  tired,
• 16:05
  then
• 16:05
  when
• 16:06
  you
• 16:06
  Sit
• 16:06
  down
• 16:06
  to
• 16:06
  work.
• 16:06
  And
• 16:07
  I
• 16:07
  would
• 16:07
  find
• 16:07
  myself,
• 16:08
  especially
• 16:08
  in
• 16:08
  the
• 16:08
  afternoons,
• 16:09
  just
• 16:09
  being
• 16:09
  like,
• 16:09
  oh
• 16:09
  my
• 16:09
  gosh,
• 16:10
  I
• 16:10
  cannot
• 16:11
  keep
• 16:11
  my
• 16:11
  eyes
• 16:11
  open.
• 16:12
  Sat
• 16:12
  at
• 16:12
  my
• 16:12
  desk.
• 16:13
  And
• 16:13
  so
• 16:13
  my
• 16:13
  sleep
• 16:14
  was
• 16:14
  like
• 16:14
  having
• 16:15
  that
• 16:15
  sleep.
• 16:15
  Hygiene
• 16:16
  was
• 16:16
  a
• 16:16
  real
• 16:16
  problem.
• 16:16
  I
• 16:17
  think
• 16:17
  when
• 16:18
  it
• 16:18
  comes
• 16:18
  to
• 16:18
  burn,
• 16:19
  having
• 16:19
  so
• 16:19
  many
• 16:19
  plates
• 16:20
  you're
• 16:20
  trying
• 16:20
  to
• 16:20
  spin
• 16:20
  and
• 16:21
  having
• 16:21
  so
• 16:21
  many
• 16:21
  things
• 16:21
  on
• 16:22
  your
• 16:22
  brain.
• 16:23
  So
• 16:23
  definitely
• 16:23
  for
• 16:23
  me
• 16:24
  those
• 16:24
  two
• 16:24
  were
• 16:25
  big
• 16:25
  kind
• 16:25
  of
• 16:26
  key
• 16:26
  things.
• 16:26
  I
• 16:27
  think
• 16:27
  that
• 16:27
  helped
• 16:28
  me
• 16:28
  kind
• 16:28
  of
• 16:28
  realize
• 16:29
  that
• 16:29
  I
• 16:29
  was
• 16:30
  not
• 16:31
  acting
• 16:31
  in
• 16:32
  a
• 16:32
  way
• 16:32
  that
• 16:32
  was
• 16:33
  going
• 16:33
  to
• 16:33
  be
• 16:33
  beneficial
• 16:34
  to
• 16:34
  myself
• 16:35
  or
• 16:35
  my
• 16:36
  business.
• 16:36
  I
• 16:36
  think
• 16:37
  that
• 16:37
  was
• 16:37
  definitely
• 16:37
  key
• 16:38
  for
• 16:38
  burnout
• 16:38
  for
• 16:38
  me.
• 16:39
  Yeah,
• 16:39
  for
• 16:39
  me
• 16:39
  I
• 16:39
  think
• 16:40
  there's
• 16:40
  some
• 16:40
  similarities.
• 16:41
  I
• 16:41
  really
• 16:41
  resonate
• 16:41
  with
• 16:42
  the
• 16:42
  thing
• 16:42
  about
• 16:42
  procrastinating
• 16:43
  and
• 16:43
  not
• 16:43
  doing
• 16:44
  what
• 16:44
  you
• 16:44
  need
• 16:44
  to
• 16:44
  do.
• 16:45
  I,
• 16:45
  I've
• 16:46
  written
• 16:46
  down
• 16:46
  on
• 16:46
  my
• 16:46
  notes,
• 16:47
  numbness.
• 16:47
  When
• 16:48
  I
• 16:48
  feel
• 16:48
  burnt
• 16:48
  out
• 16:49
  and
• 16:49
  overwhelmed,
• 16:49
  I
• 16:49
  almost
• 16:50
  become
• 16:50
  numb
• 16:50
  and
• 16:51
  just
• 16:51
  don't
• 16:51
  do
• 16:51
  anything.
• 16:52
  Almost
• 16:52
  like
• 16:52
  punishing
• 16:53
  myself.
• 16:54
  It's
• 16:54
  like
• 16:54
  I'm
• 16:55
  so
• 16:55
  busy
• 16:55
  and
• 16:55
  yet
• 16:56
  I'm
• 16:56
  doing
• 16:56
  nothing.
• 16:56
  And
• 16:57
  so
• 16:57
  then
• 16:57
  I'm
• 16:57
  then
• 16:57
  like
• 16:58
  going
• 16:58
  through
• 16:58
  this
• 16:58
  cycle
• 16:59
  of,
• 16:59
  well,
• 16:59
  now
• 16:59
  I
• 16:59
  haven't
• 17:00
  done
• 17:00
  anything,
• 17:00
  so
• 17:00
  now
• 17:00
  I'm
• 17:01
  busier.
• 17:01
  So
• 17:01
  numbness
• 17:02
  and
• 17:02
  like
• 17:02
  kind
• 17:02
  of
• 17:03
  just
• 17:03
  procrastinating
• 17:04
  is
• 17:04
  definitely
• 17:04
  one
• 17:05
  for
• 17:05
  me.
• 17:06
  The
• 17:06
  other
• 17:06
  things
• 17:06
  I've.
• 17:07
  I've
• 17:07
  put
• 17:07
  down
• 17:07
  here
• 17:07
  is
• 17:08
  I
• 17:08
  think
• 17:08
  I
• 17:08
  notice
• 17:09
  that
• 17:09
  I'm
• 17:09
  more
• 17:09
  short
• 17:09
  tempered
• 17:10
  around
• 17:10
  my
• 17:11
  family
• 17:11
  if
• 17:11
  I'm
• 17:12
  burnt
• 17:12
  out
• 17:12
  or
• 17:12
  overwhelmed
• 17:13
  or
• 17:13
  stressed
• 17:13
  with
• 17:14
  work.
• 17:14
  And
• 17:15
  so
• 17:15
  I
• 17:15
  find
• 17:15
  myself
• 17:16
  snapping
• 17:16
  at
• 17:16
  the
• 17:16
  kids.
• 17:16
  And
• 17:17
  then
• 17:17
  again
• 17:17
  that
• 17:17
  builds
• 17:17
  the
• 17:18
  guilt
• 17:18
  because
• 17:18
  then
• 17:18
  you
• 17:19
  know
• 17:19
  that
• 17:19
  you're
• 17:20
  doing
• 17:20
  that
• 17:20
  and
• 17:20
  then
• 17:20
  you
• 17:20
  feel
• 17:21
  guilty
• 17:21
  about
• 17:21
  that
• 17:21
  and
• 17:21
  again
• 17:22
  the
• 17:22
  pressures
• 17:22
  build
• 17:23
  up.
• 17:23
  And
• 17:23
  the
• 17:23
  third
• 17:23
  one
• 17:24
  I've
• 17:24
  written
• 17:24
  down
• 17:24
  is
• 17:25
  I
• 17:25
  find
• 17:25
  when
• 17:25
  I'm,
• 17:25
  when
• 17:26
  I'm
• 17:26
  really
• 17:26
  hitting
• 17:26
  a
• 17:27
  point
• 17:27
  of
• 17:27
  being
• 17:28
  burnt
• 17:28
  out
• 17:28
  or
• 17:28
  overwhelmed
• 17:29
  is
• 17:30
  not
• 17:30
  being
• 17:30
  present.
• 17:31
  So
• 17:31
  I'm
• 17:31
  present
• 17:32
  physically,
• 17:33
  but
• 17:33
  my
• 17:34
  head
• 17:34
  is
• 17:34
  all
• 17:34
  over
• 17:35
  the
• 17:35
  place.
• 17:35
  And
• 17:35
  so
• 17:36
  I
• 17:36
  can
• 17:36
  notice
• 17:36
  that
• 17:37
  the
• 17:37
  kids
• 17:37
  are
• 17:37
  talking
• 17:37
  to
• 17:37
  me
• 17:38
  and
• 17:38
  I'm
• 17:38
  not
• 17:38
  even
• 17:38
  on
• 17:38
  my
• 17:38
  phone,
• 17:39
  but
• 17:39
  my
• 17:39
  head
• 17:39
  is
• 17:40
  just
• 17:40
  going
• 17:40
  around,
• 17:40
  around.
• 17:41
  And
• 17:41
  I
• 17:41
  realize
• 17:41
  I'm
• 17:41
  not
• 17:41
  actually
• 17:42
  listening
• 17:42
  or
• 17:42
  hearing
• 17:43
  what
• 17:43
  they're
• 17:44
  saying
• 17:44
  to
• 17:44
  me
• 17:44
  because
• 17:44
  there's
• 17:45
  just
• 17:45
  too
• 17:46
  many
• 17:46
  thoughts
• 17:46
  going
• 17:47
  around
• 17:47
  my
• 17:47
  head.
• 17:47
  And
• 17:47
  so
• 17:48
  I
• 17:48
  think
• 17:48
  those
• 17:49
  for
• 17:49
  me
• 17:49
  are
• 17:50
  the
• 17:50
  big
• 17:50
  signs.
• 17:51
  Not
• 17:51
  being
• 17:51
  present
• 17:51
  and
• 17:52
  also
• 17:52
  kind
• 17:52
  of
• 17:52
  falling
• 17:52
  out
• 17:52
  of
• 17:53
  love
• 17:53
  with
• 17:53
  the
• 17:53
  business.
• 17:53
  I
• 17:54
  hear
• 17:54
  that
• 17:54
  a
• 17:54
  lot
• 17:54
  from
• 17:55
  wedding
• 17:55
  business
• 17:55
  owners.
• 17:56
  It's
• 17:56
  like
• 17:56
  they've
• 17:56
  got
• 17:56
  this
• 17:57
  successful
• 17:57
  business
• 17:57
  and
• 17:57
  they've
• 17:58
  got
• 17:58
  so
• 17:58
  burnt
• 17:59
  out
• 17:59
  that
• 17:59
  they've
• 17:59
  kind
• 17:59
  of
• 18:00
  lost
• 18:00
  the
• 18:00
  passion
• 18:00
  for
• 18:00
  it,
• 18:01
  lost
• 18:01
  the
• 18:01
  love
• 18:01
  of
• 18:02
  it.
• 18:02
  And
• 18:02
  I
• 18:02
  always
• 18:02
  know
• 18:03
  when
• 18:03
  I
• 18:03
  start
• 18:03
  thinking
• 18:04
  I
• 18:04
  don't
• 18:04
  like
• 18:04
  this
• 18:04
  anymore.
• 18:05
  I
• 18:05
  need
• 18:05
  a
• 18:05
  job
• 18:05
  at
• 18:05
  Tesco's.
• 18:06
  That's
• 18:06
  a
• 18:06
  sign
• 18:07
  to
• 18:07
  me
• 18:07
  that.
• 18:07
  No,
• 18:07
  no,
• 18:08
  Becca,
• 18:08
  what
• 18:08
  are
• 18:08
  you
• 18:08
  talking
• 18:08
  about?
• 18:08
  You
• 18:09
  do
• 18:09
  like
• 18:09
  this.
• 18:09
  It's
• 18:09
  just
• 18:10
  you,
• 18:10
  you're
• 18:10
  just
• 18:10
  overwhelmed.
• 18:11
  You
• 18:11
  need
• 18:11
  to
• 18:12
  take
• 18:12
  a
• 18:12
  break.
• 18:12
  But
• 18:13
  as
• 18:13
  business
• 18:13
  owners,
• 18:14
  we
• 18:15
  find
• 18:15
  it
• 18:15
  really
• 18:15
  hard
• 18:15
  to
• 18:15
  take
• 18:16
  a
• 18:16
  break
• 18:16
  because
• 18:16
  of
• 18:16
  all
• 18:17
  of
• 18:17
  the
• 18:17
  things
• 18:17
  I've
• 18:17
  just
• 18:17
  said.
• 18:18
  We're
• 18:18
  so
• 18:18
  busy,
• 18:19
  we've
• 18:19
  got
• 18:19
  a
• 18:19
  whole
• 18:19
  long
• 18:20
  to
• 18:20
  do
• 18:20
  list.
• 18:20
  It's
• 18:20
  really
• 18:21
  hard
• 18:21
  for
• 18:21
  us
• 18:21
  to
• 18:21
  take
• 18:21
  time
• 18:22
  out.
• 18:22
  So
• 18:23
  how
• 18:23
  have
• 18:23
  you
• 18:24
  started
• 18:24
  to
• 18:24
  fit
• 18:25
  this
• 18:25
  in?
• 18:25
  How
• 18:25
  do
• 18:26
  we
• 18:26
  find
• 18:26
  space
• 18:27
  for
• 18:27
  this
• 18:28
  self
• 18:28
  care,
• 18:28
  for
• 18:28
  this
• 18:29
  mindfulness,
• 18:29
  for
• 18:29
  this
• 18:30
  reset
• 18:30
  even
• 18:31
  though
• 18:31
  we've
• 18:31
  got
• 18:31
  these
• 18:31
  massive
• 18:32
  to
• 18:32
  do
• 18:32
  lists?
• 18:32
  You
• 18:32
  know
• 18:33
  what
• 18:33
  I
• 18:33
  think
• 18:33
  when
• 18:34
  you
• 18:34
  think
• 18:34
  about
• 18:34
  it
• 18:34
  like,
• 18:35
  oh,
• 18:35
  I
• 18:35
  need
• 18:35
  to
• 18:35
  find
• 18:35
  time
• 18:36
  for
• 18:36
  that
• 18:36
  as
• 18:36
  well.
• 18:36
  It
• 18:36
  can
• 18:37
  come
• 18:37
  become
• 18:37
  just
• 18:38
  another
• 18:38
  thing
• 18:39
  that's
• 18:39
  on
• 18:39
  your
• 18:39
  to
• 18:39
  do
• 18:39
  list
• 18:40
  that
• 18:40
  is
• 18:40
  easy
• 18:40
  to
• 18:40
  procrastinate
• 18:41
  on.
• 18:42
  And
• 18:42
  I
• 18:42
  think
• 18:43
  sometimes
• 18:43
  people
• 18:44
  feel
• 18:44
  like
• 18:44
  with
• 18:45
  taking
• 18:46
  time
• 18:46
  for
• 18:46
  self
• 18:46
  care
• 18:47
  or
• 18:47
  it
• 18:47
  needs
• 18:47
  to
• 18:47
  be,
• 18:47
  I
• 18:47
  need
• 18:47
  to
• 18:48
  set
• 18:48
  aside
• 18:48
  time
• 18:48
  to
• 18:48
  do
• 18:49
  that
• 18:49
  as
• 18:49
  well
• 18:49
  now.
• 18:50
  Like,
• 18:50
  oh,
• 18:51
  when
• 18:51
  am
• 18:51
  I
• 18:51
  going
• 18:51
  to
• 18:51
  find
• 18:51
  time
• 18:52
  in
• 18:52
  my
• 18:52
  busy
• 18:52
  schedule
• 18:53
  to
• 18:53
  go
• 18:53
  to
• 18:53
  a
• 18:54
  spa
• 18:54
  day?
• 18:54
  Like
• 18:54
  I
• 18:54
  haven't
• 18:55
  got
• 18:55
  time
• 18:55
  to
• 18:55
  take
• 18:55
  a
• 18:55
  day
• 18:55
  off
• 18:56
  and
• 18:56
  go
• 18:56
  to
• 18:56
  the
• 18:56
  spa.
• 18:57
  Like
• 18:57
  it's
• 18:57
  more.
• 18:57
  But
• 18:58
  you
• 18:58
  know,
• 18:58
  I
• 18:59
  think
• 18:59
  self
• 18:59
  care
• 18:59
  and
• 19:00
  mindfulness
• 19:01
  are
• 19:01
  kind
• 19:01
  of
• 19:01
  terms
• 19:02
  that
• 19:02
  are
• 19:02
  thrown
• 19:02
  about
• 19:03
  a
• 19:03
  lot
• 19:03
  and
• 19:04
  they
• 19:04
  can
• 19:04
  feel
• 19:05
  a
• 19:05
  little
• 19:05
  bit,
• 19:05
  you
• 19:05
  know,
• 19:06
  alien
• 19:06
  to
• 19:06
  us
• 19:06
  sometimes.
• 19:07
  Or
• 19:07
  maybe
• 19:07
  even
• 19:07
  a
• 19:07
  little
• 19:08
  bit
• 19:08
  like
• 19:08
  woo,
• 19:08
  woo.
• 19:09
  Like,
• 19:09
  oh
• 19:09
  yeah,
• 19:09
  okay.
• 19:10
  Like
• 19:10
  I'll
• 19:10
  sit
• 19:10
  and
• 19:10
  just
• 19:11
  think.
• 19:11
  Well,
• 19:11
  I've
• 19:11
  been
• 19:12
  a
• 19:12
  my
• 19:12
  mindfulness,
• 19:13
  I'll
• 19:13
  just
• 19:13
  sit,
• 19:13
  sit
• 19:13
  at
• 19:14
  my
• 19:14
  desk
• 19:14
  and,
• 19:15
  and
• 19:15
  meditate
• 19:16
  and
• 19:16
  that
• 19:16
  can
• 19:16
  feel
• 19:16
  really
• 19:17
  difficult
• 19:17
  to
• 19:17
  do.
• 19:18
  Like,
• 19:18
  you
• 19:18
  know,
• 19:18
  I
• 19:19
  certainly,
• 19:19
  I've
• 19:19
  tried
• 19:19
  to
• 19:20
  do
• 19:20
  meditation
• 19:21
  before
• 19:21
  and
• 19:21
  I
• 19:22
  end
• 19:22
  up
• 19:22
  just
• 19:22
  thinking,
• 19:22
  oh,
• 19:23
  what's
• 19:23
  on
• 19:23
  my
• 19:23
  shopping
• 19:24
  list?
• 19:24
  Did
• 19:24
  I
• 19:24
  need
• 19:24
  to,
• 19:24
  did
• 19:25
  I
• 19:25
  send
• 19:25
  that
• 19:25
  email
• 19:25
  that
• 19:25
  I
• 19:26
  needed
• 19:26
  to
• 19:26
  send
• 19:27
  yesterday?
• 19:27
  Or
• 19:28
  oh
• 19:28
  God,
• 19:28
  what
• 19:28
  time
• 19:28
  have
• 19:28
  I
• 19:29
  got
• 19:29
  to
• 19:29
  go
• 19:29
  pick
• 19:29
  the
• 19:29
  kids
• 19:29
  up?
• 19:29
  You
• 19:30
  know,
• 19:30
  like
• 19:30
  all
• 19:30
  of
• 19:30
  these,
• 19:31
  you
• 19:31
  sit
• 19:32
  and
• 19:32
  try
• 19:32
  and
• 19:32
  do
• 19:33
  something
• 19:33
  mindful
• 19:34
  and
• 19:35
  actually
• 19:35
  it's,
• 19:36
  it's
• 19:36
  your
• 19:36
  brain
• 19:36
  ends
• 19:37
  up
• 19:37
  whack
• 19:37
  where
• 19:37
  it
• 19:37
  was
• 19:38
  before
• 19:38
  because
• 19:38
  you've
• 19:38
  got
• 19:39
  too
• 19:39
  many
• 19:39
  things
• 19:39
  that
• 19:39
  you're
• 19:39
  thinking
• 19:40
  about
• 19:40
  doing.
• 19:40
  I
• 19:40
  think
• 19:41
  one
• 19:41
  of
• 19:41
  the
• 19:41
  things
• 19:42
  that
• 19:42
  I've
• 19:42
  discovered
• 19:42
  from
• 19:43
  doing
• 19:43
  this,
• 19:43
  this
• 19:44
  mindful
• 19:45
  drawing
• 19:45
  is
• 19:45
  that
• 19:46
  it's
• 19:46
  keeping
• 19:47
  your
• 19:47
  brain
• 19:48
  active
• 19:49
  still.
• 19:50
  It's
• 19:50
  not
• 19:50
  like
• 19:50
  you're,
• 19:51
  you
• 19:51
  know,
• 19:51
  having
• 19:52
  to
• 19:52
  tell
• 19:52
  yourself
• 19:53
  off
• 19:53
  because
• 19:53
  your
• 19:53
  brain's
• 19:54
  wandered
• 19:54
  off
• 19:54
  and
• 19:54
  you're
• 19:55
  like
• 19:55
  not
• 19:55
  thinking
• 19:55
  about
• 19:56
  thinking.
• 19:57
  Do
• 19:57
  you
• 19:57
  know
• 19:57
  what
• 19:58
  I
• 19:58
  mean?
• 19:58
  It's
• 19:59
  like
• 19:59
  when
• 20:00
  you
• 20:00
  are
• 20:00
  doing
• 20:01
  something
• 20:01
  that
• 20:02
  is
• 20:02
  keeping
• 20:02
  yourself
• 20:03
  busy,
• 20:04
  even
• 20:04
  for
• 20:04
  10
• 20:05
  or
• 20:05
  15
• 20:05
  minutes.
• 20:06
  And
• 20:06
  that's
• 20:06
  all
• 20:06
  you
• 20:06
  need
• 20:07
  to
• 20:07
  be
• 20:07
  able
• 20:07
  to
• 20:07
  do
• 20:08
  this
• 20:08
  kind
• 20:08
  of
• 20:08
  thing.
• 20:09
  This
• 20:09
  kind
• 20:10
  of.
• 20:10
  I
• 20:10
  find
• 20:10
  that.
• 20:11
  That
• 20:11
  mindful
• 20:11
  drawing
• 20:12
  is
• 20:12
  really
• 20:12
  helpful
• 20:13
  because
• 20:13
  it's
• 20:13
  key,
• 20:13
  it's
• 20:14
  creative.
• 20:14
  And
• 20:14
  that's
• 20:15
  kind
• 20:15
  of.
• 20:15
  Obviously,
• 20:15
  I
• 20:15
  have
• 20:15
  a
• 20:16
  quite
• 20:16
  a
• 20:16
  creative
• 20:16
  brain
• 20:17
  anyway,
• 20:17
  but
• 20:18
  by
• 20:19
  keeping
• 20:19
  your
• 20:19
  hand
• 20:20
  busy
• 20:20
  but
• 20:21
  focused
• 20:21
  on
• 20:22
  your.
• 20:22
  From
• 20:22
  your
• 20:22
  brain
• 20:23
  focused
• 20:23
  on
• 20:23
  what
• 20:23
  you're
• 20:23
  doing,
• 20:24
  it's.
• 20:24
  It's.
• 20:24
  Stop.
• 20:25
  It's
• 20:25
  keeping
• 20:25
  your
• 20:25
  brain
• 20:26
  from
• 20:26
  being
• 20:27
  busy
• 20:27
  and
• 20:27
  running
• 20:28
  around
• 20:28
  and
• 20:28
  thinking
• 20:28
  of
• 20:28
  all
• 20:29
  these
• 20:29
  different
• 20:29
  things
• 20:29
  you
• 20:29
  have
• 20:29
  to
• 20:30
  do,
• 20:30
  but
• 20:30
  even
• 20:31
  just
• 20:31
  taking
• 20:31
  10
• 20:32
  minutes
• 20:32
  to
• 20:32
  sit
• 20:32
  and
• 20:32
  do
• 20:33
  it,
• 20:33
  like
• 20:33
  a
• 20:33
  small
• 20:33
  bit
• 20:34
  of
• 20:34
  drawing,
• 20:34
  like
• 20:34
  one
• 20:35
  line
• 20:35
  at
• 20:35
  a
• 20:35
  time,
• 20:35
  repetitive
• 20:36
  line
• 20:36
  drawing
• 20:37
  really
• 20:37
  helps
• 20:38
  you
• 20:38
  take
• 20:39
  that
• 20:39
  step
• 20:39
  back
• 20:40
  and
• 20:40
  switch
• 20:41
  things.
• 20:41
  Switch
• 20:41
  off,
• 20:41
  but
• 20:42
  not
• 20:42
  switch
• 20:42
  off.
• 20:42
  If
• 20:42
  that
• 20:43
  means
• 20:43
  it's
• 20:43
  kind
• 20:43
  of
• 20:43
  active
• 20:44
  meditation,
• 20:44
  it's.
• 20:44
  It's
• 20:45
  doing
• 20:45
  something
• 20:46
  with
• 20:46
  your
• 20:47
  hands
• 20:47
  and
• 20:47
  your
• 20:47
  brain,
• 20:48
  but
• 20:48
  it's
• 20:49
  taking
• 20:49
  it
• 20:49
  away
• 20:50
  from
• 20:50
  all
• 20:50
  of
• 20:50
  the
• 20:50
  busyness
• 20:51
  of
• 20:51
  your.
• 20:51
  Life
• 20:51
  and
• 20:52
  doing
• 20:52
  something
• 20:52
  for
• 20:53
  yourself.
• 20:54
  Exactly.
• 20:54
  Because,
• 20:54
  again,
• 20:55
  like,
• 20:55
  what
• 20:55
  we
• 20:55
  were
• 20:55
  talking
• 20:56
  about
• 20:56
  earlier
• 20:56
  is
• 20:56
  we're
• 20:57
  always
• 20:57
  putting
• 20:57
  everyone
• 20:57
  else
• 20:58
  first
• 20:58
  and
• 20:58
  doing
• 20:58
  everything
• 20:59
  for
• 20:59
  everyone
• 20:59
  else.
• 20:59
  And
• 20:59
  we.
• 21:00
  I'd
• 21:00
  really
• 21:00
  like
• 21:00
  to
• 21:00
  encourage
• 21:01
  people
• 21:01
  listening
• 21:01
  to
• 21:01
  just
• 21:02
  take
• 21:02
  30
• 21:02
  seconds
• 21:03
  right
• 21:03
  now
• 21:03
  to
• 21:03
  reflect
• 21:04
  on
• 21:04
  the
• 21:04
  week
• 21:04
  you've
• 21:05
  had
• 21:05
  or
• 21:05
  the
• 21:05
  day
• 21:05
  you've
• 21:05
  had
• 21:06
  or
• 21:06
  the
• 21:06
  month
• 21:06
  you've
• 21:06
  had,
• 21:07
  and
• 21:07
  just
• 21:07
  think,
• 21:07
  when
• 21:08
  have
• 21:08
  I
• 21:08
  done
• 21:08
  anything
• 21:09
  just
• 21:09
  for
• 21:09
  myself
• 21:10
  where
• 21:10
  I've
• 21:10
  done
• 21:10
  something
• 21:11
  where
• 21:11
  I'm
• 21:11
  not
• 21:11
  thinking
• 21:12
  about
• 21:12
  all
• 21:12
  of
• 21:12
  the
• 21:12
  other
• 21:12
  things
• 21:13
  and
• 21:13
  I'm
• 21:13
  just
• 21:13
  in
• 21:14
  that
• 21:14
  moment
• 21:14
  thinking
• 21:15
  for
• 21:15
  myself.
• 21:15
  And
• 21:15
  I
• 21:15
  guess
• 21:16
  that
• 21:16
  can
• 21:16
  be
• 21:16
  different
• 21:16
  for
• 21:16
  everyone,
• 21:17
  Becky.
• 21:17
  And
• 21:18
  for
• 21:18
  some
• 21:18
  people
• 21:18
  it
• 21:18
  could
• 21:19
  be
• 21:19
  drawing.
• 21:19
  For
• 21:19
  some
• 21:19
  people,
• 21:20
  it
• 21:20
  could
• 21:20
  be
• 21:20
  other
• 21:21
  things.
• 21:21
  I
• 21:21
  know
• 21:21
  for
• 21:22
  me,
• 21:22
  one
• 21:22
  of
• 21:22
  the
• 21:22
  things
• 21:22
  I
• 21:23
  do
• 21:23
  each
• 21:23
  week
• 21:23
  still
• 21:24
  is
• 21:24
  have
• 21:24
  my
• 21:24
  singing
• 21:25
  lesson.
• 21:25
  And
• 21:25
  people,
• 21:26
  including
• 21:26
  the
• 21:26
  teacher,
• 21:27
  often
• 21:27
  say
• 21:27
  to
• 21:27
  me,
• 21:27
  why
• 21:27
  are
• 21:28
  you
• 21:28
  doing
• 21:28
  this?
• 21:28
  Like,
• 21:28
  you're
• 21:28
  not,
• 21:29
  like,
• 21:29
  practicing
• 21:29
  for
• 21:29
  a
• 21:30
  console
• 21:30
  or
• 21:30
  anything.
• 21:30
  I'm
• 21:30
  like,
• 21:31
  I'm
• 21:31
  doing
• 21:31
  it
• 21:31
  because
• 21:31
  it's
• 21:31
  my,
• 21:32
  like,
• 21:32
  30
• 21:32
  minutes
• 21:33
  of
• 21:33
  a
• 21:33
  week
• 21:33
  where
• 21:33
  I
• 21:33
  can
• 21:34
  just
• 21:34
  do
• 21:34
  something
• 21:34
  that's.
• 21:35
  It's
• 21:35
  exactly
• 21:36
  like
• 21:36
  that.
• 21:36
  It's
• 21:36
  something
• 21:37
  I
• 21:37
  enjoy,
• 21:37
  but
• 21:37
  I'm
• 21:37
  not
• 21:38
  having
• 21:38
  to
• 21:38
  be
• 21:39
  active
• 21:39
  and
• 21:39
  think
• 21:39
  about
• 21:40
  anything
• 21:40
  else.
• 21:40
  I
• 21:41
  can
• 21:41
  just
• 21:41
  be
• 21:42
  present.
• 21:42
  Exactly.
• 21:43
  I
• 21:43
  think
• 21:43
  that's,
• 21:43
  for
• 21:43
  me,
• 21:44
  like,
• 21:44
  one
• 21:44
  of
• 21:44
  the
• 21:44
  things
• 21:44
  I
• 21:45
  also
• 21:45
  prioritize
• 21:46
  is
• 21:46
  getting
• 21:46
  to
• 21:46
  the
• 21:46
  gym
• 21:47
  because
• 21:47
  I
• 21:47
  find,
• 21:48
  and
• 21:48
  especially
• 21:48
  found,
• 21:49
  like,
• 21:49
  working
• 21:49
  out,
• 21:50
  like,
• 21:50
  at
• 21:50
  the
• 21:50
  gym
• 21:50
  or
• 21:51
  wherever
• 21:51
  was
• 21:52
  really,
• 21:52
  really
• 21:52
  helpful,
• 21:53
  especially
• 21:53
  straight
• 21:54
  after
• 21:54
  my
• 21:54
  mum
• 21:55
  passed
• 21:55
  away.
• 21:55
  Like,
• 21:55
  I
• 21:56
  found
• 21:56
  it
• 21:56
  really
• 21:56
  took
• 21:57
  my
• 21:57
  mind
• 21:57
  off
• 21:57
  of
• 21:58
  everything
• 21:58
  that
• 21:58
  was
• 21:58
  going
• 21:58
  on,
• 21:59
  like
• 21:59
  all
• 21:59
  of
• 21:59
  this
• 21:59
  stress.
• 22:00
  So
• 22:01
  you
• 22:01
  know,
• 22:01
  moving
• 22:01
  your
• 22:01
  body
• 22:02
  in
• 22:02
  any
• 22:02
  kind
• 22:03
  of
• 22:03
  form
• 22:03
  I
• 22:03
  think
• 22:03
  is
• 22:03
  really,
• 22:04
  really
• 22:04
  helpful
• 22:04
  as
• 22:04
  well.
• 22:05
  For
• 22:05
  me,
• 22:05
  definitely.
• 22:05
  Like,
• 22:06
  like.
• 22:07
  And,
• 22:07
  you
• 22:07
  know,
• 22:07
  obviously,
• 22:08
  like,
• 22:08
  the
• 22:08
  mindful
• 22:08
  drawing
• 22:09
  thing
• 22:09
  that
• 22:09
  I'm
• 22:09
  doing
• 22:09
  is
• 22:10
  not
• 22:10
  for
• 22:10
  everyone.
• 22:10
  Like,
• 22:11
  it's
• 22:11
  not
• 22:11
  everyone's
• 22:12
  cup
• 22:12
  of
• 22:12
  tea
• 22:12
  to
• 22:12
  do
• 22:13
  any
• 22:13
  kind
• 22:13
  of
• 22:13
  art
• 22:14
  necessarily,
• 22:14
  but
• 22:15
  there's
• 22:16
  a
• 22:16
  huge
• 22:16
  amount
• 22:16
  of
• 22:17
  research
• 22:17
  around
• 22:18
  things
• 22:18
  like,
• 22:19
  well,
• 22:20
  working
• 22:20
  out
• 22:20
  as
• 22:21
  well.
• 22:21
  Like,
• 22:21
  and
• 22:21
  also
• 22:22
  art
• 22:22
  and
• 22:22
  craft
• 22:23
  or
• 22:23
  doing
• 22:23
  something
• 22:23
  like
• 22:24
  that
• 22:24
  that's
• 22:24
  creative.
• 22:25
  I
• 22:25
  mean,
• 22:25
  your
• 22:25
  singing
• 22:25
  is
• 22:26
  creative.
• 22:26
  Like
• 22:27
  that
• 22:27
  kind
• 22:27
  of
• 22:28
  all
• 22:28
  of
• 22:28
  those
• 22:28
  things,
• 22:28
  those
• 22:29
  things
• 22:29
  that
• 22:29
  in
• 22:29
  with
• 22:30
  working
• 22:30
  out,
• 22:30
  like
• 22:30
  all
• 22:31
  the
• 22:31
  endorphins
• 22:31
  that
• 22:31
  are
• 22:32
  released
• 22:32
  in
• 22:32
  your,
• 22:32
  in
• 22:33
  your
• 22:33
  brain,
• 22:33
  like
• 22:33
  really,
• 22:34
  it's
• 22:34
  really
• 22:34
  beneficial
• 22:34
  to
• 22:35
  the,
• 22:35
  the
• 22:35
  body
• 22:35
  as
• 22:35
  a
• 22:36
  whole,
• 22:36
  but
• 22:36
  also
• 22:37
  kind
• 22:37
  of
• 22:37
  the
• 22:38
  creative
• 22:38
  aspect.
• 22:39
  And
• 22:39
  there's
• 22:39
  loads
• 22:40
  of
• 22:40
  research
• 22:41
  around
• 22:41
  how
• 22:42
  creativity
• 22:43
  is
• 22:43
  hugely
• 22:43
  beneficial
• 22:44
  for
• 22:44
  mental
• 22:44
  health.
• 22:45
  We
• 22:45
  don't
• 22:45
  do
• 22:45
  enough
• 22:46
  of
• 22:46
  it.
• 22:46
  Even
• 22:47
  as
• 22:47
  children
• 22:47
  now,
• 22:47
  we
• 22:47
  don't
• 22:48
  do
• 22:48
  enough
• 22:48
  of
• 22:48
  it.
• 22:48
  You
• 22:48
  know,
• 22:48
  where
• 22:49
  people
• 22:49
  used
• 22:49
  to
• 22:49
  sit
• 22:49
  and
• 22:49
  draw
• 22:50
  and
• 22:50
  color
• 22:50
  and
• 22:50
  all
• 22:50
  that
• 22:51
  things,
• 22:51
  now
• 22:51
  they're
• 22:51
  just
• 22:51
  on
• 22:52
  an
• 22:52
  iPad
• 22:52
  all
• 22:52
  the
• 22:52
  time.
• 22:53
  Actually,
• 22:53
  we're
• 22:53
  the
• 22:54
  same.
• 22:54
  We.
• 22:54
  We
• 22:55
  don't
• 22:55
  sit
• 22:55
  and
• 22:55
  draw
• 22:55
  and
• 22:55
  color
• 22:56
  or
• 22:56
  do
• 22:56
  creative
• 22:57
  things
• 22:57
  because
• 22:57
  we're
• 22:57
  just
• 22:58
  on
• 22:58
  our
• 22:58
  phones
• 22:58
  all
• 22:58
  the
• 22:59
  time.
• 22:59
  And
• 22:59
  they're
• 22:59
  the
• 22:59
  absolute
• 23:00
  thief
• 23:00
  of
• 23:00
  any
• 23:01
  kind
• 23:01
  of
• 23:01
  mindfulness,
• 23:01
  in
• 23:02
  my
• 23:02
  opinion.
• 23:02
  I
• 23:02
  think
• 23:03
  so,
• 23:03
  yeah.
• 23:03
  I
• 23:03
  think
• 23:03
  it's
• 23:04
  interesting
• 23:04
  you
• 23:04
  mentioned
• 23:04
  drawing
• 23:05
  and
• 23:05
  coloring
• 23:05
  because
• 23:06
  I
• 23:06
  think
• 23:06
  adult
• 23:06
  coloring
• 23:07
  was
• 23:07
  like
• 23:07
  quite
• 23:08
  a
• 23:08
  thing,
• 23:08
  wasn't
• 23:09
  it?
• 23:09
  For
• 23:09
  a
• 23:09
  while
• 23:09
  that
• 23:10
  was
• 23:10
  quite
• 23:10
  popular.
• 23:10
  And
• 23:11
  this
• 23:11
  is
• 23:11
  the
• 23:11
  thing
• 23:11
  that
• 23:11
  I'm
• 23:12
  doing
• 23:12
  is
• 23:12
  kind
• 23:12
  of
• 23:12
  similar
• 23:12
  to
• 23:13
  that,
• 23:13
  except
• 23:13
  you're
• 23:14
  kind
• 23:14
  of
• 23:14
  creating
• 23:14
  the
• 23:14
  patterns
• 23:15
  to
• 23:15
  color,
• 23:15
  but
• 23:15
  you
• 23:16
  don't
• 23:16
  have
• 23:16
  to
• 23:16
  color
• 23:16
  them.
• 23:16
  But
• 23:17
  yeah,
• 23:17
  it's.
• 23:17
  It's
• 23:17
  definitely
• 23:18
  kind
• 23:18
  of
• 23:18
  similar
• 23:18
  in,
• 23:19
  in
• 23:19
  that
• 23:19
  vein.
• 23:20
  So
• 23:20
  how
• 23:20
  do
• 23:20
  you
• 23:20
  now
• 23:21
  find
• 23:21
  time
• 23:21
  for
• 23:21
  this?
• 23:22
  Going
• 23:22
  back
• 23:22
  to
• 23:22
  the
• 23:22
  time
• 23:23
  element,
• 23:23
  I
• 23:23
  assume
• 23:24
  that
• 23:24
  your
• 23:24
  own
• 23:25
  mindfulness,
• 23:25
  drawing,
• 23:26
  your
• 23:26
  own
• 23:26
  Zentangling,
• 23:27
  is
• 23:27
  something
• 23:28
  you're
• 23:28
  now
• 23:28
  practicing
• 23:29
  yourself.
• 23:29
  So
• 23:30
  is
• 23:30
  it
• 23:30
  something
• 23:30
  you
• 23:31
  do
• 23:31
  every
• 23:31
  day?
• 23:32
  Is
• 23:32
  it
• 23:32
  something
• 23:32
  you
• 23:32
  do
• 23:33
  when
• 23:33
  you
• 23:33
  feel
• 23:33
  like
• 23:33
  you're
• 23:34
  bur
• 23:34
  out?
• 23:34
  Is
• 23:34
  it
• 23:35
  something
• 23:35
  you
• 23:35
  do
• 23:35
  for
• 23:35
  pleasure?
• 23:36
  Talk
• 23:36
  to
• 23:36
  me
• 23:36
  about
• 23:37
  that.
• 23:37
  So
• 23:37
  I.
• 23:38
  I
• 23:39
  find
• 23:39
  just
• 23:40
  sometimes
• 23:40
  sitting
• 23:40
  down
• 23:41
  in
• 23:41
  front
• 23:41
  of
• 23:41
  the
• 23:41
  telly
• 23:42
  and
• 23:42
  keeping
• 23:42
  my
• 23:42
  hand
• 23:42
  busy,
• 23:43
  even
• 23:43
  doing
• 23:43
  it
• 23:43
  is
• 23:43
  quite
• 23:44
  nice
• 23:44
  to
• 23:44
  do.
• 23:45
  Or
• 23:45
  I
• 23:46
  tend
• 23:46
  to,
• 23:46
  if
• 23:46
  I'm
• 23:47
  not
• 23:47
  watching
• 23:47
  the
• 23:47
  telly
• 23:48
  with
• 23:48
  it,
• 23:48
  I'll
• 23:48
  put
• 23:48
  some
• 23:48
  music
• 23:49
  on
• 23:49
  and
• 23:49
  just
• 23:49
  sit
• 23:49
  for
• 23:50
  maybe
• 23:50
  half
• 23:50
  an
• 23:50
  hour.
• 23:51
  The
• 23:51
  nice
• 23:52
  thing
• 23:52
  about
• 23:52
  Zentangle
• 23:53
  that
• 23:53
  when
• 23:53
  I'm
• 23:54
  have
• 23:54
  been
• 23:54
  doing
• 23:55
  that
• 23:55
  is
• 23:55
  that
• 23:55
  the
• 23:55
  format
• 23:56
  is
• 23:56
  really
• 23:56
  small.
• 23:56
  So
• 23:57
  you
• 23:57
  work
• 23:57
  on
• 23:57
  these
• 23:57
  very
• 23:58
  small
• 23:58
  tiles
• 23:58
  that
• 23:58
  are
• 23:59
  like
• 23:59
  three
• 23:59
  and
• 23:59
  a
• 23:59
  Half
• 23:59
  by
• 24:00
  three
• 24:00
  and
• 24:00
  a
• 24:00
  half
• 24:00
  inches
• 24:01
  square
• 24:01
  tiles.
• 24:02
  And
• 24:02
  so
• 24:03
  it's.
• 24:03
  The
• 24:03
  format
• 24:03
  is
• 24:04
  small
• 24:04
  so
• 24:04
  you
• 24:04
  can
• 24:04
  kind
• 24:05
  of
• 24:05
  start
• 24:05
  something
• 24:05
  and
• 24:05
  finish
• 24:06
  something
• 24:06
  quite
• 24:06
  quickly.
• 24:07
  It's
• 24:07
  not
• 24:07
  like
• 24:08
  you're
• 24:08
  creating
• 24:09
  a
• 24:09
  huge
• 24:09
  piece
• 24:10
  of
• 24:10
  artwork
• 24:10
  or
• 24:11
  for
• 24:11
  example,
• 24:11
  like
• 24:11
  in
• 24:12
  the
• 24:12
  past
• 24:12
  I've
• 24:12
  or
• 24:12
  still
• 24:13
  do
• 24:13
  like
• 24:14
  enjoy
• 24:14
  things
• 24:14
  like
• 24:14
  knitting
• 24:15
  and
• 24:15
  crochet
• 24:16
  to
• 24:16
  switch
• 24:16
  off
• 24:17
  in
• 24:17
  the
• 24:17
  evening.
• 24:17
  Now
• 24:17
  the
• 24:18
  thing
• 24:18
  with
• 24:18
  that
• 24:18
  is
• 24:18
  that
• 24:18
  I
• 24:18
  have
• 24:19
  probably
• 24:19
  three
• 24:20
  or
• 24:20
  four
• 24:20
  projects
• 24:20
  that
• 24:21
  have
• 24:21
  been
• 24:21
  going
• 24:21
  on
• 24:21
  for
• 24:22
  maybe
• 24:23
  five
• 24:23
  to
• 24:23
  10
• 24:24
  years.
• 24:24
  I've
• 24:24
  got
• 24:25
  half
• 24:25
  a
• 24:25
  jumper
• 24:25
  that
• 24:25
  I've
• 24:26
  started
• 24:26
  knitting
• 24:26
  somewhere
• 24:27
  in
• 24:27
  my
• 24:27
  house.
• 24:28
  I
• 24:28
  enjoy
• 24:28
  cross
• 24:28
  stitch
• 24:29
  as
• 24:29
  well.
• 24:29
  I've
• 24:29
  got
• 24:29
  a
• 24:30
  cross
• 24:30
  stitch
• 24:30
  project
• 24:30
  that
• 24:31
  I
• 24:31
  started
• 24:31
  10
• 24:32
  years
• 24:32
  ago,
• 24:32
  probably
• 24:33
  Christmas
• 24:33
  related
• 24:34
  one,
• 24:35
  and
• 24:35
  that
• 24:35
  is
• 24:36
  again
• 24:36
  still
• 24:36
  sort
• 24:37
  of
• 24:37
  languishing
• 24:37
  in
• 24:37
  the
• 24:37
  corner
• 24:38
  of
• 24:38
  my
• 24:38
  living
• 24:38
  room
• 24:38
  because
• 24:38
  sometimes
• 24:39
  I
• 24:39
  pick
• 24:39
  it
• 24:39
  up
• 24:39
  and
• 24:39
  put
• 24:40
  it
• 24:40
  down
• 24:40
  and
• 24:40
  it's
• 24:40
  a
• 24:41
  really
• 24:41
  long
• 24:41
  project
• 24:42
  that
• 24:42
  is
• 24:42
  going
• 24:42
  to
• 24:42
  take
• 24:42
  a
• 24:43
  long
• 24:43
  time
• 24:43
  for
• 24:43
  me
• 24:43
  to
• 24:43
  complete.
• 24:44
  Whereas
• 24:44
  one
• 24:45
  of
• 24:45
  the
• 24:45
  reasons
• 24:45
  that
• 24:45
  I've
• 24:46
  fallen
• 24:46
  in
• 24:46
  love
• 24:46
  with
• 24:46
  this
• 24:46
  particular
• 24:47
  kind
• 24:47
  of
• 24:47
  art
• 24:48
  form,
• 24:48
  I
• 24:48
  guess,
• 24:48
  is
• 24:48
  that
• 24:49
  you
• 24:49
  can
• 24:49
  sit
• 24:49
  down
• 24:49
  and
• 24:50
  complete
• 24:51
  a
• 24:51
  piece
• 24:51
  of
• 24:52
  Zentangle
• 24:52
  art
• 24:53
  In
• 24:53
  you
• 24:53
  know,
• 24:54
  15
• 24:54
  minutes,
• 24:54
  as
• 24:55
  little
• 24:55
  as
• 24:55
  15
• 24:55
  minutes,
• 24:56
  maybe
• 24:56
  kind
• 24:56
  of
• 24:56
  up
• 24:56
  to
• 24:57
  sort
• 24:57
  of
• 24:57
  half
• 24:58
  an
• 24:58
  hour,
• 24:58
  an
• 24:58
  hour.
• 24:59
  But
• 24:59
  you've
• 24:59
  completed
• 25:00
  it
• 25:00
  and
• 25:00
  at
• 25:00
  the
• 25:00
  end
• 25:00
  of
• 25:00
  it
• 25:01
  you
• 25:01
  have
• 25:01
  that
• 25:01
  sense
• 25:01
  of
• 25:02
  completion
• 25:02
  and
• 25:02
  that
• 25:03
  kind
• 25:03
  of
• 25:03
  that
• 25:04
  nice
• 25:04
  boost
• 25:05
  of
• 25:05
  your
• 25:05
  self
• 25:05
  esteem
• 25:06
  you
• 25:06
  get
• 25:06
  when
• 25:06
  you
• 25:06
  finish
• 25:06
  a
• 25:06
  project,
• 25:07
  which
• 25:07
  is
• 25:07
  really
• 25:07
  nice
• 25:08
  obviously
• 25:09
  when,
• 25:09
  because
• 25:09
  I'm
• 25:09
  doing
• 25:10
  it
• 25:10
  for
• 25:10
  a
• 25:10
  job
• 25:10
  now,
• 25:10
  I
• 25:11
  end
• 25:11
  up
• 25:11
  doing
• 25:11
  it
• 25:11
  a
• 25:11
  lot
• 25:11
  during
• 25:12
  the
• 25:12
  day
• 25:12
  as
• 25:12
  well.
• 25:12
  But
• 25:13
  it's
• 25:13
  amazing
• 25:13
  how
• 25:14
  even
• 25:14
  when
• 25:14
  I'm
• 25:15
  doing
• 25:15
  it
• 25:15
  for
• 25:15
  my
• 25:15
  work,
• 25:15
  I've
• 25:16
  sat
• 25:16
  down
• 25:16
  and
• 25:16
  felt
• 25:17
  really
• 25:17
  stressed
• 25:17
  about
• 25:18
  like,
• 25:18
  you
• 25:18
  know,
• 25:19
  something
• 25:19
  that's
• 25:19
  happened
• 25:19
  that
• 25:20
  day
• 25:20
  and
• 25:20
  be
• 25:20
  like,
• 25:20
  oh
• 25:21
  no,
• 25:21
  I
• 25:21
  can't.
• 25:21
  I
• 25:21
  don't
• 25:22
  have
• 25:22
  time
• 25:22
  to
• 25:22
  sit
• 25:22
  and
• 25:22
  do
• 25:22
  this
• 25:23
  now.
• 25:23
  I
• 25:23
  don't
• 25:23
  have.
• 25:24
  I'm
• 25:24
  not
• 25:24
  in
• 25:24
  the
• 25:24
  right
• 25:24
  headspace
• 25:25
  to
• 25:25
  sit
• 25:25
  and
• 25:26
  record
• 25:26
  a
• 25:26
  video
• 25:26
  lesson.
• 25:27
  But
• 25:27
  actually
• 25:27
  I
• 25:28
  sat
• 25:28
  down
• 25:28
  and
• 25:28
  recorded
• 25:29
  the
• 25:29
  video
• 25:29
  lesson
• 25:29
  because
• 25:29
  that
• 25:30
  was
• 25:30
  what
• 25:30
  I
• 25:30
  had
• 25:30
  to
• 25:30
  do,
• 25:30
  my
• 25:31
  to
• 25:31
  do
• 25:31
  list.
• 25:31
  And
• 25:31
  I
• 25:31
  felt
• 25:32
  so
• 25:32
  much
• 25:32
  better
• 25:32
  afterwards.
• 25:33
  Like
• 25:33
  the
• 25:33
  stress
• 25:34
  just
• 25:34
  left
• 25:34
  my
• 25:35
  body.
• 25:35
  It
• 25:35
  was.
• 25:35
  It's
• 25:36
  amazing
• 25:36
  how
• 25:36
  just
• 25:37
  that
• 25:37
  quiet
• 25:37
  focus
• 25:38
  of
• 25:38
  bringing
• 25:38
  your
• 25:38
  attention
• 25:39
  to
• 25:39
  something
• 25:39
  else,
• 25:40
  it
• 25:40
  just
• 25:41
  kind
• 25:41
  of
• 25:41
  takes
• 25:42
  away
• 25:42
  any
• 25:42
  of
• 25:42
  that
• 25:43
  kind
• 25:43
  of
• 25:43
  stressed
• 25:44
  feeling.
• 25:44
  I
• 25:44
  think
• 25:45
  it's
• 25:45
  the
• 25:45
  kind
• 25:45
  of,
• 25:45
  you
• 25:46
  know,
• 25:46
  the
• 25:46
  feel
• 25:46
  of
• 25:46
  the
• 25:46
  pen,
• 25:47
  the
• 25:47
  pen
• 25:48
  on
• 25:48
  the
• 25:48
  paper,
• 25:48
  or
• 25:49
  just
• 25:49
  the
• 25:50
  kind
• 25:50
  of
• 25:50
  watching
• 25:51
  something
• 25:51
  come
• 25:52
  together
• 25:52
  slowly
• 25:52
  but
• 25:53
  surely
• 25:53
  through
• 25:53
  one
• 25:54
  stroke
• 25:54
  at
• 25:54
  a
• 25:54
  time
• 25:54
  of
• 25:55
  your
• 25:55
  pen,
• 25:56
  it
• 25:56
  kind
• 25:56
  of
• 25:56
  evaporates
• 25:57
  any
• 25:57
  of
• 25:57
  the
• 25:58
  stress
• 25:58
  that
• 25:58
  you
• 25:58
  were
• 25:59
  feeling.
• 25:59
  It's
• 25:59
  quite
• 25:59
  Magic,
• 26:00
  Really?
• 26:01
  But
• 26:01
  yeah,
• 26:01
  I
• 26:02
  mean,
• 26:02
  I
• 26:02
  think
• 26:02
  even
• 26:03
  just
• 26:03
  five
• 26:03
  or
• 26:04
  ten
• 26:04
  minutes
• 26:04
  of
• 26:04
  doing
• 26:04
  that
• 26:05
  is,
• 26:05
  is
• 26:05
  kind
• 26:06
  of
• 26:06
  fires
• 26:07
  up
• 26:07
  the
• 26:07
  synapses
• 26:07
  of
• 26:07
  your,
• 26:08
  you
• 26:08
  know,
• 26:08
  the
• 26:08
  connections
• 26:09
  in
• 26:09
  your
• 26:09
  brain
• 26:09
  between
• 26:10
  your
• 26:10
  hand
• 26:10
  and
• 26:10
  your
• 26:11
  head.
• 26:11
  Like,
• 26:12
  I
• 26:12
  think
• 26:12
  hand
• 26:12
  eye
• 26:13
  coordination
• 26:13
  is
• 26:13
  something
• 26:14
  that
• 26:14
  you
• 26:14
  kind
• 26:14
  of
• 26:15
  lose
• 26:15
  even
• 26:15
  when
• 26:15
  you're
• 26:16
  so
• 26:16
  busy
• 26:16
  typing
• 26:17
  on
• 26:17
  your
• 26:17
  computer
• 26:17
  or
• 26:17
  you're
• 26:18
  so
• 26:18
  busy
• 26:18
  kind
• 26:18
  of
• 26:19
  on
• 26:19
  your
• 26:19
  phone
• 26:19
  like
• 26:20
  replying
• 26:20
  to
• 26:20
  emails
• 26:21
  or
• 26:21
  whatever,
• 26:22
  or
• 26:22
  writing
• 26:22
  blogs.
• 26:22
  You
• 26:23
  know,
• 26:23
  you're
• 26:23
  not,
• 26:23
  not
• 26:23
  holding
• 26:24
  a
• 26:24
  pen
• 26:24
  and
• 26:24
  paper
• 26:25
  so
• 26:25
  much
• 26:25
  anymore.
• 26:25
  And
• 26:26
  I
• 26:26
  think
• 26:26
  that
• 26:26
  doing
• 26:26
  something
• 26:27
  like
• 26:27
  this
• 26:27
  is
• 26:27
  really
• 26:28
  beneficial
• 26:29
  for
• 26:29
  that
• 26:29
  kind
• 26:29
  of
• 26:30
  hand
• 26:30
  eye
• 26:30
  coordination,
• 26:31
  apart
• 26:31
  from
• 26:31
  anything.
• 26:32
  But
• 26:33
  yeah,
• 26:33
  five
• 26:33
  minutes
• 26:34
  here
• 26:34
  and
• 26:34
  there
• 26:34
  is
• 26:34
  all
• 26:35
  you
• 26:35
  need
• 26:35
  really
• 26:35
  to
• 26:35
  be
• 26:35
  able
• 26:36
  to
• 26:36
  switch
• 26:36
  off
• 26:37
  and
• 26:37
  kind
• 26:37
  of
• 26:37
  reconnect
• 26:38
  with
• 26:39
  those
• 26:39
  elements
• 26:40
  that
• 26:40
  I
• 26:40
  think
• 26:40
  we
• 26:40
  sometimes
• 26:41
  lose
• 26:41
  in
• 26:42
  the
• 26:42
  modern
• 26:42
  day.
• 26:42
  Yeah,
• 26:43
  absolutely.
• 26:43
  And
• 26:43
  I
• 26:43
  like
• 26:43
  the
• 26:44
  reality
• 26:44
  of
• 26:44
  that
• 26:44
  because
• 26:44
  what
• 26:45
  you're
• 26:45
  not
• 26:45
  telling
• 26:45
  us,
• 26:45
  which
• 26:46
  often
• 26:46
  people
• 26:46
  tell
• 26:46
  us,
• 26:47
  is
• 26:47
  get
• 26:47
  up
• 26:47
  at
• 26:47
  4:30am
• 26:48
  every
• 26:49
  day
• 26:49
  and
• 26:49
  do
• 26:49
  your
• 26:50
  30
• 26:50
  minutes
• 26:51
  of
• 26:51
  drawing
• 26:51
  and
• 26:51
  then
• 26:52
  you'll
• 26:52
  be
• 26:52
  ready
• 26:52
  for
• 26:52
  the
• 26:52
  day
• 26:52
  ahead.
• 26:53
  And
• 26:53
  that
• 26:53
  just
• 26:53
  doesn't
• 26:53
  work
• 26:54
  for
• 26:54
  everyone
• 26:54
  actually.
• 26:55
  It's
• 26:55
  a
• 26:55
  bit
• 26:55
  more
• 26:55
  like,
• 26:56
  okay,
• 26:56
  let's
• 26:57
  do
• 26:57
  something
• 26:57
  for
• 26:58
  ourselves,
• 26:58
  let's
• 26:59
  find
• 26:59
  the
• 26:59
  something
• 27:00
  that
• 27:00
  helps
• 27:01
  us
• 27:01
  relax
• 27:02
  and
• 27:02
  then
• 27:02
  let's
• 27:03
  enjoy
• 27:03
  doing
• 27:03
  it
• 27:03
  in
• 27:04
  those
• 27:04
  space
• 27:04
  in
• 27:04
  between.
• 27:04
  Otherwise
• 27:05
  it
• 27:05
  just
• 27:05
  becomes
• 27:05
  another
• 27:06
  thing,
• 27:06
  like
• 27:06
  you
• 27:06
  said
• 27:07
  on
• 27:07
  the
• 27:07
  to
• 27:07
  do
• 27:07
  list,
• 27:07
  and
• 27:07
  you're
• 27:08
  putting
• 27:08
  more
• 27:08
  pressure
• 27:08
  on
• 27:08
  yourself
• 27:09
  to
• 27:09
  get
• 27:09
  up
• 27:09
  early
• 27:09
  and
• 27:09
  do
• 27:09
  it.
• 27:10
  Exactly.
• 27:10
  I
• 27:10
  think
• 27:11
  as
• 27:11
  well
• 27:11
  it's
• 27:11
  a
• 27:11
  really,
• 27:12
  I
• 27:12
  find
• 27:12
  it's
• 27:13
  a
• 27:13
  really
• 27:13
  nice
• 27:14
  thing
• 27:14
  to
• 27:15
  replace
• 27:15
  the
• 27:15
  doom
• 27:16
  scrolling
• 27:16
  with
• 27:16
  because
• 27:17
  I
• 27:17
  have,
• 27:17
  I
• 27:17
  would,
• 27:18
  you
• 27:18
  know,
• 27:18
  put
• 27:18
  the
• 27:18
  kids
• 27:18
  to
• 27:19
  bed
• 27:19
  and
• 27:19
  you've,
• 27:19
  you've
• 27:19
  only
• 27:20
  got
• 27:20
  a
• 27:20
  couple
• 27:20
  of
• 27:20
  hours
• 27:20
  to
• 27:21
  yourself
• 27:21
  before
• 27:21
  you
• 27:21
  need
• 27:21
  to
• 27:21
  go
• 27:22
  to
• 27:22
  bed
• 27:22
  yourself,
• 27:22
  before,
• 27:23
  you
• 27:23
  know,
• 27:23
  to
• 27:23
  try
• 27:23
  and
• 27:23
  get
• 27:23
  some
• 27:24
  decent
• 27:24
  rest.
• 27:24
  And
• 27:25
  when
• 27:25
  I'm
• 27:26
  sat
• 27:27
  on
• 27:27
  the
• 27:27
  sofa
• 27:28
  of
• 27:28
  an
• 27:28
  evening,
• 27:28
  it's
• 27:28
  very
• 27:29
  easy
• 27:29
  just
• 27:29
  to
• 27:29
  pick
• 27:29
  up
• 27:29
  my
• 27:30
  phone
• 27:30
  and
• 27:30
  look
• 27:30
  at

  or

  myself
• 27:36
  like
• 27:36
  an

  hour
• 27:37
  later.
• 27:37
  What

• 27:39
  What

  I
• 27:39
  accomplished?
• 27:40
  Nothing
• 27:40
  at
• 27:40
  all.
• 27:40
  I've
• 27:40
  just
• 27:40
  made
• 27:41
  myself
• 27:41
  feel
• 27:41
  worse

  from

  looking

  really
• 27:48
  amazing
• 27:48

• 27:49
  Things.
• 27:49
  And
• 27:49
  actually
• 27:50
  this
• 27:50
  is
• 27:50
  a
• 27:50
  really
• 27:50
  nice
• 27:51
  way
• 27:51
  to

  kind

  give
• 27:52
  yourself

  something

  to
• 27:53
  do
• 27:53
  that's
• 27:54
  not
• 27:54
  just
• 27:54
  sat
• 27:55
  looking
• 27:55
  at
• 27:55
  your

• 27:56
  It's

  kind
• 27:56
  of
• 27:57
  giving
• 27:57
  you
• 27:57
  all

  away
• 28:02
  from

  sometimes

  toxic

  kind

  of

  really
• 28:07
  difficult
• 28:08
  to
• 28:08
  get
• 28:08
  out
• 28:08
  of.
• 28:09
  Sometimes
• 28:09
  it's
• 28:10
  just
• 28:10
  a
• 28:10
  habit.
• 28:11
  It's
• 28:11
  kind
• 28:11
  of
• 28:11
  breaking
• 28:12
  the
• 28:12
  habit

  of
• 28:12
  doing
• 28:12
  that

  well.

  And,

  you
• 28:15
  know,
• 28:15
  it
• 28:15
  doesn't

  be

  along

• 28:23
  minutes
• 28:23
  here
• 28:23
  and
• 28:23
  there.

  I've

  YouTube

  minutes.

  Like,

  There's

  lots

  I'll
• 28:51
  take
• 28:52
  that

  rather
• 28:52
  than

  again
• 28:53
  sitting
• 28:53
  on
• 28:53
  my
• 28:54
  phone
• 28:54
  and
• 28:54
  just
• 28:54
  staring
• 28:55
  into
• 28:55
  the
• 28:55
  abyss
• 28:56
  of
• 28:56
  Instagram.
• 28:58
  It's.
• 28:58
  It's
• 28:59
  a
• 28:59
  nice
• 28:59
  way
• 28:59
  to
• 28:59
  kind
• 28:59
  of
• 29:00
  slot
• 29:00
  it
• 29:00
  into
• 29:00
  your
• 29:01
  day.
• 29:01
  And
• 29:01
  the
• 29:01
  nice
• 29:02
  thing
• 29:02
  about
• 29:02
  it
• 29:02
  is
• 29:02
  that
• 29:03
  these
• 29:03
  tiles
• 29:04
  and
• 29:04
  things
• 29:04
  are
• 29:04
  really
• 29:04
  small
• 29:05
  and
• 29:05
  portable
• 29:05
  and
• 29:06
  like
• 29:06
  you
• 29:06
  just
• 29:06
  need
• 29:06
  a
• 29:07
  pen
• 29:07
  and
• 29:07
  a
• 29:07
  pencil.
• 29:09
  So
• 29:09
  it's
• 29:09
  really
• 29:09
  easy
• 29:10
  to
• 29:10
  take
• 29:10
  around
• 29:10
  with
• 29:10
  you
• 29:11
  and
• 29:12
  pop
• 29:12
  in
• 29:12
  your
• 29:12
  pocket.
• 29:12
  Almost
• 29:13
  the
• 29:13
  same
• 29:13
  way
• 29:13
  as
• 29:13
  your
• 29:14
  phone.
• 29:14
  Yeah,
• 29:14
  we
• 29:14
  need
• 29:14
  to
• 29:15
  find
• 29:15
  things
• 29:15
  to
• 29:15
  replace
• 29:15
  our
• 29:16
  phone.
• 29:16
  Now.
• 29:16
  There
• 29:16
  is
• 29:17
  one
• 29:17
  contradiction
• 29:17
  in
• 29:17
  your
• 29:18
  story,
• 29:18
  Becca,
• 29:18
  that
• 29:18
  we
• 29:18
  need
• 29:18
  to
• 29:18
  address
• 29:19
  because
• 29:19
  people
• 29:20
  may
• 29:20
  be
• 29:20
  thinking
• 29:20
  it,
• 29:21
  because
• 29:21
  I'm
• 29:21
  thinking
• 29:21
  it
• 29:21
  as
• 29:21
  well.
• 29:22
  And
• 29:22
  I
• 29:22
  want
• 29:22
  to
• 29:22
  talk
• 29:22
  a
• 29:22
  little
• 29:23
  bit
• 29:23
  about
• 29:23
  it
• 29:23
  because
• 29:23
  we've
• 29:24
  talked
• 29:24
  about
• 29:24
  how
• 29:25
  you
• 29:25
  had
• 29:25
  all
• 29:25
  of
• 29:25
  these
• 29:26
  things
• 29:26
  going
• 29:26
  on
• 29:26
  and
• 29:27
  you
• 29:27
  hit
• 29:27
  burnout
• 29:27
  yourself
• 29:28
  and
• 29:28
  then
• 29:28
  you
• 29:29
  ended
• 29:29
  it
• 29:29
  with.
• 29:29
  So
• 29:30
  I
• 29:30
  started
• 29:30
  another
• 29:30
  business
• 29:31
  which
• 29:32
  could
• 29:32
  be
• 29:32
  seen
• 29:33
  as
• 29:33
  well,
• 29:33
  Tony.
• 29:34
  Becky,
• 29:34
  just.
• 29:34
  You're
• 29:34
  just
• 29:34
  adding
• 29:35
  more
• 29:35
  to
• 29:35
  your
• 29:36
  plate
• 29:36
  rather
• 29:36
  than
• 29:37
  helping
• 29:37
  yourself.
• 29:38
  So
• 29:38
  how
• 29:39
  has
• 29:39
  starting
• 29:40
  this
• 29:40
  actually
• 29:41
  helped
• 29:42
  you
• 29:42
  or
• 29:42
  how
• 29:42
  are
• 29:42
  you
• 29:43
  balancing
• 29:44
  what
• 29:44
  you're
• 29:44
  doing
• 29:44
  now
• 29:45
  so
• 29:45
  that
• 29:45
  you're
• 29:45
  not
• 29:45
  just
• 29:45
  adding
• 29:46
  something
• 29:46
  else
• 29:46
  and
• 29:46
  burning
• 29:47
  out
• 29:47
  even
• 29:47
  more?
• 29:47
  That's
• 29:48
  a
• 29:48
  really
• 29:48
  good
• 29:48
  question.
• 29:49
  One
• 29:50
  of
• 29:50
  the
• 29:50
  things
• 29:50
  obviously
• 29:51
  with
• 29:51
  weddings,
• 29:51
  as
• 29:52
  everyone
• 29:52
  knows,
• 29:52
  is
• 29:52
  that
• 29:53
  there's
• 29:53
  a
• 29:53
  lot
• 29:53
  of.
• 29:53
  There's
• 29:54
  an
• 29:54
  on
• 29:54
  and
• 29:54
  off
• 29:54
  season,
• 29:55
  you
• 29:55
  know,
• 29:56
  so
• 29:57
  when
• 29:57
  I've
• 29:57
  have
• 29:58
  in
• 29:58
  PR
• 29:59
  in
• 29:59
  previous
• 29:59
  years,
• 30:00
  when
• 30:00
  I
• 30:00
  focused
• 30:00
  on
• 30:01
  kind
• 30:01
  of
• 30:02
  the
• 30:02
  weddings
• 30:03
  in
• 30:03
  the
• 30:03
  summer
• 30:03
  and
• 30:04
  doing
• 30:04
  all
• 30:04
  the
• 30:04
  editing
• 30:04
  and
• 30:05
  stuff,
• 30:06
  I've
• 30:06
  kind
• 30:06
  of
• 30:07
  picked
• 30:07
  up
• 30:07
  another
• 30:07
  project
• 30:08
  in
• 30:08
  the
• 30:08
  off
• 30:09
  season,
• 30:09
  as
• 30:09
  it
• 30:09
  were.
• 30:10
  So
• 30:10
  obviously
• 30:11
  there's
• 30:11
  things
• 30:11
  that
• 30:11
  you
• 30:11
  can
• 30:12
  work
• 30:12
  on
• 30:12
  your
• 30:12
  business
• 30:12
  when
• 30:12
  you're
• 30:13
  not
• 30:13
  Working
• 30:13
  in
• 30:13
  your
• 30:13
  business
• 30:14
  in
• 30:14
  the,
• 30:14
  in

  the
• 30:14
  winter
• 30:15
  or
• 30:15
  the
• 30:15
  off
• 30:15
  season.
• 30:16
  But
• 30:16
  I've
• 30:17
  kind
• 30:17
  of
• 30:17
  set
• 30:17
  up,
• 30:17
  you
• 30:17
  know,
• 30:18
  the,
• 30:19

• 30:19
  branding
• 30:19
  element
• 30:19
  of
• 30:20
  my
• 30:20
  business
• 30:20
  and
• 30:20

• 30:21
  was
• 30:21
  just
• 30:21
  kind
• 30:21
  of
• 30:21
  another
• 30:22
  element
• 30:22
  of
• 30:22
  the
• 30:22
  business
• 30:23
  that
• 30:23
  I
• 30:23
  set
• 30:23
  up.
• 30:23
  Instead
• 30:24
  of
• 30:24
  focusing
• 30:24
  more
• 30:25
  on
• 30:25
  that,
• 30:25
  I
• 30:25
  did
• 30:26
  this
• 30:26
  in
• 30:26
  the
• 30:26
  off
• 30:26
  season.
• 30:27
  So
• 30:27
  I
• 30:27
  did
• 30:27
  a
• 30:28
  lot
• 30:28
  of
• 30:28
  the
• 30:28
  recording
• 30:28
  and
• 30:28

• 30:29
  in
• 30:29
  the
• 30:29
  off
• 30:30
  season
• 30:30
  and
• 30:30
  then
• 30:31
  then
• 30:32
  done
• 30:32
  kind
• 30:32
  of
• 30:32
  worked

  other,
• 30:35
  the
• 30:36
  other
• 30:36
  end.
• 30:37
  And
• 30:37
  obviously,
• 30:37
  you
• 30:38
  know,
• 30:38
  everyone
• 30:38
  knows
• 30:38
  there's
• 30:38
  a

  lot
• 30:39
  of

  with
• 30:44
  automations
• 30:44
  and

  stuff.
• 30:45
  And
• 30:46
  like

  for

  that's
• 30:49
  helped
• 30:49
  a
• 30:50
  lot.
• 30:50
  So
• 30:50
  streamlining
• 30:51
  processes
• 30:52
  to
• 30:52
  give
• 30:52
  me

  bit

  lot
• 31:08
  of

  time

  applies
• 31:12
  my
• 31:12
  preset
• 31:12
  and
• 31:13
  makes
• 31:13
  the
• 31:13
  basic
• 31:13
  changes
• 31:14
  that
• 31:14
  I
• 31:14
  would

  You

• 31:17
  that
• 31:17
  for
• 31:17
  me
• 31:18
  and

  then

  I

  normal
• 31:24
  level
• 31:25
  of

  delivery.
• 31:25
  So
• 31:26
  AI
• 31:26
  has
• 31:26
  really
• 31:26
  helped
• 31:27
  with
• 31:27
  that
• 31:27
  for
• 31:27
  sure.
• 31:27
  I
• 31:28
  think
• 31:28
  as
• 31:28
  well,
• 31:28
  it's
• 31:28
  important
• 31:28
  to
• 31:29
  just
• 31:29
  understand
• 31:30
  for
• 31:30
  all
• 31:30
  of
• 31:30
  us
• 31:31
  that
• 31:31
  it's
• 31:31
  okay
• 31:31
  for
• 31:32
  us
• 31:32
  to
• 31:32
  evolve
• 31:32
  in
• 31:33
  our
• 31:33
  business
• 31:33
  journey
• 31:34
  as
• 31:34
  well.
• 31:34
  And
• 31:34
  I
• 31:35
  again,
• 31:35
  I
• 31:35
  see
• 31:35
  this
• 31:35
  quite
• 31:36
  a
• 31:36
  lot
• 31:36
  when
• 31:36
  I've
• 31:36
  worked
• 31:37
  with
• 31:37
  people
• 31:37
  a
• 31:37
  long
• 31:37
  time
• 31:38
  is
• 31:38
  actually
• 31:38
  the
• 31:38
  business
• 31:39
  we
• 31:39
  wanted
• 31:39
  10
• 31:40
  years
• 31:40
  ago
• 31:40
  to
• 31:40
  the
• 31:40
  business
• 31:41
  we
• 31:41
  want
• 31:41
  now
• 31:42
  may
• 31:42
  be
• 31:42
  very
• 31:42
  different.
• 31:43
  I
• 31:43
  see
• 31:43
  it
• 31:43
  in
• 31:43
  my
• 31:43
  own
• 31:44
  life.
• 31:44
  I'm
• 31:44
  always
• 31:44
  changing
• 31:45
  the
• 31:45
  goalposts
• 31:45
  and
• 31:45
  changing
• 31:46
  the
• 31:46
  things
• 31:46
  because
• 31:47
  depending
• 31:47
  on
• 31:47
  what's
• 31:47
  going
• 31:47
  on
• 31:47
  around
• 31:48
  you,
• 31:48
  depends
• 31:49
  on
• 31:49
  what
• 31:50
  you
• 31:50
  actually
• 31:50
  want
• 31:50
  to
• 31:50
  say
• 31:50
  yes
• 31:51
  or
• 31:51
  no
• 31:51
  to.
• 31:51
  And
• 31:52
  so
• 31:52
  for
• 31:52
  me,
• 31:53
  I
• 31:53
  see
• 31:53
  that
• 31:53
  you
• 31:54
  said
• 31:54
  earlier
• 31:54
  on
• 31:54
  that
• 31:55
  you
• 31:55
  don't
• 31:55
  want
• 31:55
  to
• 31:55
  work
• 31:55
  so
• 31:56
  many
• 31:56
  weekends
• 31:56
  and
• 31:57
  so
• 31:57
  this
• 31:57
  is
• 31:58
  a
• 31:58
  route
• 31:58
  for
• 31:58
  you
• 31:59
  to
• 31:59
  be
• 31:59
  able
• 32:00
  to
• 32:00
  bring
• 32:01
  some
• 32:01
  of
• 32:01
  your
• 32:01
  work
• 32:02
  into
• 32:02
  the
• 32:02
  weekdays.
• 32:03
  Definitely.
• 32:03
  I
• 32:03
  think
• 32:04
  that.
• 32:04
  I
• 32:05
  think
• 32:05
  personally
• 32:06
  for
• 32:06
  me,
• 32:07
  and
• 32:07
  this
• 32:07
  might
• 32:08
  not
• 32:08
  be
• 32:08
  the
• 32:08
  case
• 32:08
  for
• 32:08
  everyone,
• 32:08
  but
• 32:09
  for
• 32:09
  me
• 32:09
  weddings
• 32:10
  were,
• 32:10
  was
• 32:10
  a
• 32:11
  fantastic
• 32:12
  thing
• 32:12
  to
• 32:12
  work
• 32:12
  on.
• 32:13
  Like
• 32:13
  when
• 32:14
  my
• 32:14
  children
• 32:14
  were
• 32:14
  younger,
• 32:15
  because
• 32:15
  I
• 32:15
  was
• 32:15
  with
• 32:16
  my
• 32:16
  children
• 32:17
  all
• 32:17
  day
• 32:17
  long
• 32:18
  in
• 32:19
  the
• 32:19
  week
• 32:19
  when
• 32:19
  they
• 32:19
  were
• 32:19
  small.
• 32:20
  And
• 32:20
  so
• 32:21
  going
• 32:21
  away
• 32:21
  and
• 32:21
  working
• 32:22
  at
• 32:22
  the
• 32:22
  weekends
• 32:22
  was
• 32:23
  actually
• 32:23
  quite
• 32:23
  nice,
• 32:24
  quite
• 32:24
  nice
• 32:24
  break.
• 32:25
  But
• 32:25
  I
• 32:25
  think
• 32:26
  it's,
• 32:26
  it's
• 32:26
  true
• 32:26
  to
• 32:27
  say
• 32:27
  like
• 32:27
  that
• 32:28
  your
• 32:28
  business
• 32:28
  and
• 32:29
  your
• 32:29
  requirements
• 32:30
  for
• 32:30
  your
• 32:30
  business
• 32:31
  or
• 32:31
  what
• 32:31
  you
• 32:31
  need
• 32:32
  from
• 32:32
  Your
• 32:32
  business
• 32:32
  evolve
• 32:33
  over
• 32:33
  time.
• 32:34
  And
• 32:34
  now
• 32:34
  my
• 32:35
  children
• 32:35
  are
• 32:35
  both
• 32:35
  out
• 32:35
  of
• 32:36
  the
• 32:36
  house
• 32:36
  all
• 32:36
  day
• 32:37
  at
• 32:37
  school.
• 32:38
  I
• 32:38
  want
• 32:39
  to
• 32:39
  have
• 32:39
  my
• 32:39
  weekends
• 32:40
  the.
• 32:40
  Where
• 32:40
  I
• 32:40
  can
• 32:40
  see
• 32:41
  them
• 32:41
  and
• 32:41
  spend
• 32:42
  time
• 32:42
  doing
• 32:42
  the
• 32:42
  things
• 32:42
  that,
• 32:43
  that
• 32:43
  was
• 32:43
  the,
• 32:43
  the,
• 32:44
  you
• 32:44
  know,
• 32:44
  it's
• 32:44
  being
• 32:45
  able
• 32:45
  to
• 32:45
  leave
• 32:45
  work
• 32:46
  early
• 32:46
  and
• 32:46
  go
• 32:46
  and
• 32:46
  pick
• 32:46
  them
• 32:46
  up
• 32:47
  from
• 32:47
  school
• 32:47
  is
• 32:47
  still
• 32:47
  really
• 32:47
  beneficial
• 32:48
  to
• 32:48
  me
• 32:48
  and
• 32:48
  having
• 32:48
  that
• 32:49
  flexibility
• 32:49
  of
• 32:49
  being
• 32:49
  self
• 32:50
  employed.
• 32:50
  But
• 32:51
  that
• 32:51
  now
• 32:51
  extends
• 32:51
  to
• 32:52
  a
• 32:52
  different
• 32:52
  kind
• 32:52
  of
• 32:53
  element
• 32:53
  for
• 32:53
  me.
• 32:53
  Like
• 32:54
  I
• 32:54
  want
• 32:54
  to
• 32:54
  have
• 32:54
  a
• 32:54
  bit
• 32:54
  more
• 32:55
  time
• 32:55
  at
• 32:55
  the
• 32:55
  weekends
• 32:55
  to
• 32:55
  spend
• 32:56
  with
• 32:56
  them
• 32:56
  because
• 32:56
  they're
• 32:57
  always
• 32:57
  off,
• 32:57
  they've
• 32:57
  got
• 32:57
  such
• 32:57
  busy
• 32:58
  social
• 32:58
  lives,
• 32:58
  they're
• 32:58
  always
• 32:59
  off.
• 32:59
  Like
• 32:59
  I
• 33:00
  need
• 33:00
  to
• 33:00
  take
• 33:00
  them
• 33:00
  here
• 33:00
  and
• 33:01
  there.
• 33:01
  And
• 33:01
  so
• 33:01
  when
• 33:02
  if
• 33:02
  they
• 33:02
  going
• 33:03
  to
• 33:03
  a
• 33:03
  day
• 33:03
  full
• 33:03
  of
• 33:03
  birthday
• 33:04
  parties
• 33:04
  on
• 33:04
  a
• 33:04
  Sunday,
• 33:05
  I
• 33:05
  want
• 33:05
  my
• 33:05
  Saturday
• 33:05
  to
• 33:06
  be
• 33:06
  able
• 33:06
  to
• 33:06
  spend
• 33:06
  time
• 33:06
  with
• 33:06
  them
• 33:07
  and
• 33:07
  do
• 33:07
  stuff
• 33:08
  as
• 33:08
  a
• 33:08
  family.
• 33:09
  And
• 33:09
  that's
• 33:09
  the
• 33:09
  kind
• 33:09
  of
• 33:09
  advantage
• 33:10
  of
• 33:10
  being
• 33:10
  self
• 33:10
  employed
• 33:11
  I
• 33:11
  guess,
• 33:11
  is
• 33:11
  that
• 33:12
  you
• 33:12
  can
• 33:12
  pivot
• 33:13
  and
• 33:13
  you
• 33:13
  can
• 33:14
  tweak
• 33:14
  what
• 33:14
  you
• 33:14
  do
• 33:15
  in
• 33:15
  order
• 33:15
  to
• 33:15
  fit
• 33:16
  it
• 33:16
  around
• 33:16
  what
• 33:17
  works
• 33:17
  best
• 33:17
  for
• 33:17
  you.
• 33:18
  And
• 33:19
  I
• 33:19
  also
• 33:19
  think
• 33:19
  that
• 33:19
  the
• 33:20
  industry
• 33:20
  has
• 33:20
  changed
• 33:21
  slightly
• 33:22
  in
• 33:22
  that
• 33:23
  time,
• 33:23
  like
• 33:24
  from
• 33:24
  when
• 33:24
  I
• 33:24
  was
• 33:24
  doing
• 33:25
  weddings
• 33:25
  10
• 33:25
  years
• 33:25
  ago
• 33:26
  to
• 33:26
  now.
• 33:27
  It's
• 33:28
  very
• 33:28
  different,
• 33:28
  I
• 33:29
  would
• 33:29
  say.
• 33:30
  And
• 33:30
  I
• 33:30
  don't
• 33:31
  think
• 33:31
  there's
• 33:31
  any
• 33:31
  harm
• 33:32
  in
• 33:33
  looking
• 33:33
  at
• 33:33
  what
• 33:34
  else
• 33:34
  can
• 33:34
  work
• 33:34
  for
• 33:35
  you
• 33:36
  in
• 33:37
  your
• 33:37
  business
• 33:37
  and
• 33:38
  what,
• 33:38
  what
• 33:38
  is
• 33:38
  working
• 33:39
  and
• 33:39
  what
• 33:39
  isn't
• 33:39
  working
• 33:39
  for
• 33:40
  you
• 33:40
  in
• 33:40
  terms
• 33:41
  of
• 33:41
  fitting
• 33:41
  it
• 33:41
  in
• 33:41
  with
• 33:42
  your
• 33:42
  like
• 33:43
  what
• 33:43
  you
• 33:43
  want
• 33:43
  to
• 33:43
  do
• 33:43
  and
• 33:44
  what
• 33:44
  you
• 33:44
  want
• 33:44
  to.
• 33:44
  Spend
• 33:45
  your
• 33:45
  time
• 33:45
  on,
• 33:46
  bringing
• 33:46
  it
• 33:46
  full
• 33:47
  circle.
• 33:47
  The
• 33:47
  thing
• 33:48
  is,
• 33:48
  because
• 33:48
  I
• 33:48
  always
• 33:48
  encourage
• 33:49
  people,
• 33:50
  you
• 33:50
  know,
• 33:50
  even
• 33:50
  once
• 33:50
  a
• 33:51
  year,
• 33:51
  and
• 33:51
  I
• 33:51
  do
• 33:51
  this
• 33:52
  myself,
• 33:52
  sit
• 33:52
  back,
• 33:52
  reflect,
• 33:53
  look
• 33:53
  at
• 33:53
  where
• 33:54
  you're
• 33:54
  at
• 33:54
  in
• 33:54
  the
• 33:54
  year,
• 33:55
  what
• 33:55
  do
• 33:55
  you
• 33:55
  want
• 33:55
  to
• 33:55
  achieve,
• 33:56
  where
• 33:56
  do
• 33:56
  you
• 33:56
  want
• 33:56
  to
• 33:56
  go,
• 33:56
  what
• 33:57
  do
• 33:57
  you
• 33:57
  want
• 33:57
  to
• 33:57
  change,
• 33:57
  what
• 33:57
  you
• 33:58
  want
• 33:58
  to
• 33:58
  say
• 33:58
  yes,
• 33:58
  no,
• 33:58
  to
• 33:58
  set
• 33:59
  those
• 33:59
  boundaries.
• 33:59
  But
• 34:00
  in
• 34:00
  order
• 34:00
  to
• 34:00
  have
• 34:00
  the
• 34:01
  headspace
• 34:01
  to
• 34:01
  do
• 34:01
  that,
• 34:02
  you
• 34:02
  can't
• 34:02
  be
• 34:03
  at
• 34:03
  burnout
• 34:03
  because
• 34:03
  you
• 34:04
  can't
• 34:04
  make
• 34:04
  those
• 34:04
  decisions.
• 34:05
  When
• 34:05
  you're
• 34:05
  at
• 34:05
  the
• 34:06
  edge
• 34:06
  of
• 34:06
  the
• 34:06
  abyss
• 34:06
  looking
• 34:07
  over,
• 34:07
  you
• 34:08
  need
• 34:08
  to
• 34:08
  be
• 34:08
  at
• 34:08
  a
• 34:08
  place,
• 34:09
  place
• 34:09
  where
• 34:09
  you,
• 34:10
  you've
• 34:10
  got
• 34:10
  the
• 34:10
  mind
• 34:11
  space
• 34:11
  to
• 34:11
  think
• 34:11
  about
• 34:12
  it.
• 34:12
  So
• 34:12
  you
• 34:12
  almost
• 34:13
  need
• 34:13
  to
• 34:13
  put
• 34:13
  in
• 34:13
  some
• 34:13
  self
• 34:14
  care
• 34:14
  to
• 34:15
  be
• 34:15
  able
• 34:15
  to
• 34:15
  then
• 34:15
  make
• 34:16
  those
• 34:16
  bigger
• 34:16
  long
• 34:17
  term
• 34:17
  decisions.
• 34:17
  Because
• 34:18
  when
• 34:18
  you're
• 34:18
  absolutely
• 34:19
  up
• 34:19
  against
• 34:19
  it,
• 34:20
  you
• 34:20
  can't
• 34:20
  see
• 34:21
  a
• 34:21
  route
• 34:21
  forward.
• 34:21
  It's
• 34:22
  why
• 34:22
  I
• 34:22
  often
• 34:22
  find
• 34:22
  on
• 34:23
  holiday
• 34:23
  is
• 34:23
  when
• 34:24
  I
• 34:24
  have
• 34:24
  my
• 34:24
  next
• 34:24
  best
• 34:25
  idea
• 34:25
  because
• 34:25
  we've
• 34:25
  taken
• 34:26
  some
• 34:26
  time
• 34:27
  out,
• 34:27
  away
• 34:27
  from
• 34:28
  everything
• 34:28
  to
• 34:28
  just
• 34:28
  sit
• 34:29
  back
• 34:29
  and
• 34:29
  reflect.
• 34:30
  So
• 34:30
  don't
• 34:31
  make
• 34:31
  the
• 34:31
  rash
• 34:32
  decisions
• 34:32
  when
• 34:32
  you're
• 34:33
  in
• 34:33
  the
• 34:33
  thick
• 34:33
  of
• 34:33
  it,
• 34:34
  you've
• 34:34
  got
• 34:34
  to
• 34:34
  kind
• 34:34
  of
• 34:35
  do
• 34:35
  that
• 34:35
  work
• 34:35
  work,
• 34:35
  find
• 34:36
  that
• 34:36
  space,
• 34:36
  get
• 34:37
  some
• 34:37
  head
• 34:38
  space
• 34:38
  in
• 34:38
  order
• 34:39
  to
• 34:39
  then
• 34:39
  look
• 34:39
  at
• 34:39
  where
• 34:40
  you
• 34:40
  want
• 34:40
  to
• 34:40
  move
• 34:40
  your
• 34:40
  business
• 34:41
  going
• 34:41
  forward.
• 34:41
  And
• 34:42
  I
• 34:42
  think
• 34:42
  that's
• 34:42
  really
• 34:42
  important.
• 34:43
  I
• 34:43
  just
• 34:43
  want
• 34:43
  to
• 34:43
  touch
• 34:44
  on,
• 34:44
  before
• 34:44
  we
• 34:44
  finish,
• 34:45
  on
• 34:45
  the
• 34:45
  influence
• 34:46
  that
• 34:46
  your
• 34:46
  mum
• 34:47
  has
• 34:47
  had
• 34:47
  on
• 34:48
  this,
• 34:48
  because
• 34:48
  I
• 34:48
  know
• 34:49
  that
• 34:49
  this
• 34:49
  entangling
• 34:50
  was
• 34:50
  her
• 34:50
  thing
• 34:51
  and
• 34:51
  it
• 34:52
  was
• 34:52
  almost
• 34:52
  a
• 34:52
  discovery
• 34:53
  that
• 34:53
  you
• 34:53
  made
• 34:53
  after
• 34:53
  she
• 34:54
  did
• 34:54
  sadly
• 34:54
  pass
• 34:54
  away.
• 34:55
  And
• 34:55
  I
• 34:55
  love
• 34:55
  that
• 34:55
  you've.
• 34:56
  You've
• 34:56
  kind
• 34:56
  of
• 34:56
  picked
• 34:57
  it
• 34:57
  up
• 34:57
  and
• 34:57
  run
• 34:58
  with
• 34:58
  that.
• 34:59
  So
• 34:59
  talk
• 35:00
  to
• 35:00
  me
• 35:00
  about
• 35:00
  how
• 35:00
  that
• 35:01
  happened
• 35:01
  has
• 35:01
  influenced
• 35:02
  your
• 35:03
  decision
• 35:03
  and
• 35:03
  then
• 35:04
  just
• 35:04
  explain
• 35:04
  to
• 35:04
  us,
• 35:05
  for
• 35:05
  anyone
• 35:05
  who
• 35:05
  hasn't
• 35:05
  quite
• 35:06
  worked
• 35:06
  out
• 35:06
  what
• 35:06
  this
• 35:06
  zentangling
• 35:07
  thing
• 35:07
  is
• 35:08
  yet,
• 35:08
  exactly
• 35:09
  what
• 35:09
  it
• 35:09
  looks
• 35:09
  like.
• 35:10
  Of
• 35:10
  course.
• 35:10
  So.
• 35:11
  So
• 35:11
  my
• 35:12
  mum
• 35:12
  was
• 35:12
  a
• 35:12
  certified
• 35:12
  Zentangle
• 35:13
  teacher,
• 35:14
  which
• 35:14
  I
• 35:14
  knew
• 35:14
  was
• 35:15
  a
• 35:15
  thing,
• 35:15
  but
• 35:15
  I
• 35:15
  hadn't
• 35:16
  really
• 35:16
  kind
• 35:16
  of
• 35:16
  given
• 35:16
  it
• 35:17
  a
• 35:17
  huge
• 35:17
  amount
• 35:17
  of
• 35:17
  thought.
• 35:17
  She
• 35:18
  was
• 35:18
  retired,
• 35:18
  so
• 35:18
  she
• 35:19
  was
• 35:19
  just
• 35:19
  living
• 35:19
  her
• 35:19
  best
• 35:19
  life
• 35:20
  doing
• 35:20
  all
• 35:20
  the
• 35:20
  art
• 35:20
  and
• 35:20
  craft
• 35:21
  that
• 35:21
  she
• 35:21
  could
• 35:21
  possibly
• 35:22
  ever
• 35:22
  fit
• 35:22
  into
• 35:22
  her
• 35:23
  schedule.
• 35:23
  That
• 35:23
  was
• 35:23
  basically
• 35:24
  what
• 35:24
  her
• 35:24
  life
• 35:24
  was
• 35:25
  like
• 35:25
  every
• 35:25
  day.
• 35:26
  And
• 35:27
  then,
• 35:27
  yeah,
• 35:27
  when
• 35:27
  she.
• 35:28
  So
• 35:28
  she.
• 35:28
  The.
• 35:29
  The
• 35:29
  week
• 35:29
  before
• 35:29
  she
• 35:29
  passed
• 35:30
  away,
• 35:30
  she'd
• 35:31
  booked
• 35:31
  for
• 35:31
  both
• 35:31
  of
• 35:32
  us
• 35:32
  to
• 35:32
  go
• 35:33

• 35:34
  kind
• 35:34
  of
• 35:34
  craft
• 35:35
  retreat
• 35:35
  somewhere
• 35:36
  in
• 35:36
  the
• 35:36
  uk.
• 35:36
  We
• 35:36
  were
• 35:36
  going
• 35:36
  to
• 35:37
  go
• 35:37
  to
• 35:37
  a
• 35:37
  hotel
• 35:37
  and
• 35:38
  learn
• 35:38
  to
• 35:38
  do
• 35:38
  Tunisian
• 35:39
  crochet
• 35:39
  together,
• 35:40
  which
• 35:40
  was
• 35:41
  kind
• 35:41
  of
• 35:41
  random,
• 35:41
  but
• 35:42
  it
• 35:42
  was
• 35:42
  kind
• 35:42
  of
• 35:42
  what
• 35:42
  we
• 35:42
  were
• 35:42
  both
• 35:43
  interested
• 35:43
  in,
• 35:43
  so
• 35:43
  we
• 35:44
  were
• 35:44
  going
• 35:44
  to
• 35:44
  go
• 35:44
  on
• 35:44
  and
• 35:44
  do
• 35:45
  that
• 35:45
  together.
• 35:45
  But
• 35:45
  then
• 35:45
  obviously,
• 35:46
  sadly,
• 35:46
  we
• 35:46
  lost
• 35:46
  her
• 35:47
  and
• 35:48
  so
• 35:48
  I
• 35:49
  canceled
• 35:50
  that
• 35:50
  weekend
• 35:50
  because
• 35:51
  I
• 35:51
  didn't
• 35:51
  feel
• 35:51
  like
• 35:51
  I
• 35:51
  wanted
• 35:52
  to
• 35:52
  go
• 35:52
  and
• 35:52
  learn
• 35:52
  Tunisian
• 35:53
  crochet
• 35:53
  by
• 35:53
  myself
• 35:54
  in
• 35:54
  a
• 35:54
  hotel.
• 35:55
  But
• 35:55
  I
• 35:56
  was
• 35:56
  looking
• 35:56
  at
• 35:56
  all
• 35:56
  of
• 35:57
  her
• 35:57
  Zentangle
• 35:58
  stuff
• 35:58
  and
• 35:58
  looking
• 35:59
  online
• 35:59
  at
• 35:59
  what
• 35:59
  it
• 35:59
  was
• 36:00
  and
• 36:00
  finding
• 36:00
  out
• 36:00
  more
• 36:00
  about
• 36:01
  it
• 36:01
  and.
• 36:02
  And
• 36:02
  I
• 36:02
  found
• 36:03
  that
• 36:03
  there
• 36:03
  was
• 36:05
  a
• 36:05
  training
• 36:06
  seminar
• 36:07
  to
• 36:07
  learn
• 36:07
  to
• 36:07
  be
• 36:08
  a
• 36:08
  certified
• 36:09
  teacher.
• 36:09
  And
• 36:09
  it
• 36:09
  just
• 36:09
  so
• 36:10
  happened
• 36:10
  that
• 36:10
  it
• 36:10
  was
• 36:11
  the
• 36:12
  same
• 36:12
  weekend
• 36:12
  that
• 36:13
  we'd
• 36:13
  booked
• 36:13
  to
• 36:14
  do
• 36:14
  our
• 36:15
  weekend
• 36:15
  away
• 36:15
  together.
• 36:17
  And
• 36:17
  it
• 36:17
  felt
• 36:17
  like,
• 36:18
  I
• 36:18
  mean,
• 36:18
  I'm
• 36:18
  not
• 36:18
  really
• 36:19
  one
• 36:19
  for
• 36:19
  believing
• 36:20
  in
• 36:20
  fate
• 36:20
  and
• 36:21
  woo
• 36:21
  woo,
• 36:21
  all
• 36:22
  that
• 36:22
  stuff,
• 36:22
  but
• 36:23
  it
• 36:23
  felt
• 36:23
  like
• 36:24
  it
• 36:24
  was
• 36:24
  the
• 36:24
  right
• 36:24
  thing.
• 36:24
  It
• 36:25
  felt
• 36:25
  like
• 36:25
  there
• 36:25
  was
• 36:25
  something
• 36:26
  telling
• 36:26
  me
• 36:26
  that
• 36:26
  I
• 36:26
  had
• 36:26
  to
• 36:27
  do
• 36:27
  it
• 36:27
  at
• 36:27
  that
• 36:28
  time
• 36:28
  and
• 36:28
  I
• 36:28
  was
• 36:29
  again
• 36:29
  arming
• 36:29
  and
• 36:30
  arring
• 36:30
  about
• 36:30
  the
• 36:30
  cost
• 36:30
  of
• 36:30
  it
• 36:31
  because
• 36:31
  I've
• 36:32
  already
• 36:32
  got
• 36:32
  a
• 36:32
  business,
• 36:32
  I
• 36:33
  haven't
• 36:33
  got
• 36:33
  time
• 36:33
  to
• 36:33
  go
• 36:34
  and
• 36:34
  learn
• 36:34
  how
• 36:34
  to
• 36:34
  do
• 36:34
  a
• 36:34
  whole
• 36:34
  new
• 36:35
  thing.
• 36:36
  But
• 36:36
  one
• 36:36
  of
• 36:36
  the.
• 36:36
  My
• 36:37
  mum's
• 36:37
  pension
• 36:38
  payments
• 36:38
  come
• 36:38
  through
• 36:38
  came
• 36:38
  through
• 36:39
  that
• 36:39
  basically
• 36:39
  covered
• 36:40
  the
• 36:40
  exact
• 36:40
  cost
• 36:40
  of
• 36:41
  the
• 36:41
  seminars.
• 36:41
  And
• 36:42
  I
• 36:42
  just
• 36:42
  felt
• 36:42
  like
• 36:42
  it
• 36:42
  was
• 36:43
  an
• 36:43
  opportunity
• 36:43
  not
• 36:44
  that
• 36:44
  I
• 36:44
  couldn't
• 36:44
  pass
• 36:44
  up.
• 36:45
  So
• 36:45
  I
• 36:45
  spent
• 36:46
  that
• 36:46
  weekend,
• 36:46
  it
• 36:46
  was
• 36:46
  a
• 36:46
  remote
• 36:47
  thing,
• 36:47
  so
• 36:47
  I
• 36:47
  was
• 36:47
  just
• 36:48
  at
• 36:48
  home
• 36:48
  doing
• 36:48
  it.
• 36:48
  But
• 36:48
  I
• 36:50
  really
• 36:50
  kind
• 36:50
  of
• 36:50
  got
• 36:51
  in
• 36:51
  depth
• 36:51
  into
• 36:51
  the,
• 36:52
  this
• 36:52
  Zentangle
• 36:53
  method
• 36:53
  and
• 36:53
  learned
• 36:53
  a
• 36:53
  lot
• 36:54
  more
• 36:54
  about
• 36:54
  it
• 36:54
  and
• 36:54
  then
• 36:55
  had
• 36:55
  my
• 36:55
  teaching
• 36:55
  qualification
• 36:56
  so
• 36:56
  I
• 36:56
  could
• 36:57
  share
• 36:58
  it
• 36:58
  with
• 36:58
  other
• 36:58
  people.
• 36:59
  And
• 36:59
  that
• 37:00
  was
• 37:00
  where
• 37:00
  my
• 37:00
  new
• 37:00
  business
• 37:01
  was
• 37:01
  born.
• 37:02
  My
• 37:02
  new
• 37:03
  business
• 37:03
  is
• 37:03
  called
• 37:03
  Ivy's
• 37:04
  Corner,
• 37:04
  which
• 37:05
  is
• 37:06
  somewhat
• 37:06
  named
• 37:07
  after
• 37:07
  my
• 37:07
  mum.
• 37:07
  Her,
• 37:08
  one
• 37:08
  of
• 37:08
  her
• 37:08
  middle
• 37:09
  names
• 37:09
  was
• 37:09
  Ivy.
• 37:10
  So
• 37:10
  I
• 37:10
  wanted
• 37:10
  to
• 37:10
  have
• 37:10
  a
• 37:10
  nod
• 37:11
  to
• 37:11
  her
• 37:11
  in
• 37:11
  the
• 37:12
  business
• 37:12
  and
• 37:12
  say
• 37:13
  that
• 37:13
  felt
• 37:13
  like
• 37:14
  a
• 37:14
  good
• 37:15
  name
• 37:15
  for
• 37:15
  the
• 37:15
  business.
• 37:16
  So
• 37:16
  the
• 37:16
  Zentangle
• 37:17
  method,
• 37:17
  it
• 37:17
  was
• 37:17
  basically
• 37:18
  created
• 37:19
  by
• 37:19
  a
• 37:19
  couple
• 37:19
  in
• 37:19
  the
• 37:20
  states
• 37:20
  about
• 37:20
  20
• 37:21
  years
• 37:21
  ago.
• 37:21
  And
• 37:22
  one
• 37:22
  the
• 37:23
  lady
• 37:23
  is
• 37:23
  a
• 37:24
  kind
• 37:24
  of
• 37:24
  a
• 37:24
  renowned
• 37:26
  illustrator,
• 37:27
  an
• 37:27
  artist
• 37:28
  and
• 37:28
  her
• 37:28
  partner
• 37:29
  was,
• 37:29
  amongst
• 37:30
  many
• 37:30
  other
• 37:30
  things,
• 37:31
  a
• 37:31
  Buddhist
• 37:31
  monk
• 37:31
  at
• 37:31
  one
• 37:32
  time,
• 37:32
  time.
• 37:32
  And
• 37:32
  basically
• 37:33
  she
• 37:33
  was
• 37:33
  drawing
• 37:33
  these
• 37:34
  patterns
• 37:35
  repetitive,
• 37:35
  one
• 37:36
  line
• 37:36
  at
• 37:36
  a
• 37:36
  time.
• 37:36
  And
• 37:37
  he
• 37:37
  realized
• 37:37
  that
• 37:37
  the
• 37:37
  sort
• 37:38
  of
• 37:38
  state
• 37:38
  that
• 37:38
  she
• 37:38
  was
• 37:38
  in
• 37:38
  while
• 37:39
  she
• 37:39
  was
• 37:39
  doing
• 37:39
  this
• 37:39
  was
• 37:39
  almost
• 37:40
  meditative.
• 37:40
  And
• 37:41
  so
• 37:41
  they
• 37:41
  basically
• 37:41
  created
• 37:42
  this
• 37:42
  method
• 37:43
  to
• 37:43
  make
• 37:43
  it
• 37:43
  accessible
• 37:44
  for
• 37:44
  other
• 37:44
  people
• 37:44
  to
• 37:45
  achieve
• 37:45
  this
• 37:45
  kind
• 37:45
  of
• 37:46
  calm,
• 37:47
  focused
• 37:48
  state
• 37:48
  of
• 37:48
  mind.
• 37:49
  You
• 37:49
  know,
• 37:49
  when
• 37:49
  you're
• 37:50
  in
• 37:50
  that
• 37:50
  state
• 37:50
  where
• 37:50
  you're
• 37:51
  doing,
• 37:51
  you're
• 37:51
  doing
• 37:52
  something
• 37:52
  and
• 37:52
  you
• 37:52
  are
• 37:53
  so
• 37:53
  focused
• 37:54
  that
• 37:54
  you
• 37:54
  kind
• 37:54
  of
• 37:55
  forget
• 37:55
  everything
• 37:55
  else.
• 37:55
  Now
• 37:56
  you've
• 37:56
  told
• 37:56
  me
• 37:56
  that
• 37:56
  Zentangling
• 37:57
  is
• 37:58
  so
• 37:58
  simple
• 37:58
  because
• 37:58
  I'm
• 37:59
  not
• 37:59
  an
• 37:59
  arty,
• 37:59
  crafty
• 38:00
  person
• 38:00
  at
• 38:00
  all.
• 38:01
  My
• 38:01
  creativity
• 38:02
  is
• 38:02
  definitely
• 38:02
  the
• 38:02
  music
• 38:02
  side
• 38:03
  of
• 38:03
  things.
• 38:03
  But
• 38:03
  you've
• 38:03
  told
• 38:04
  anyone
• 38:04
  can
• 38:04
  do
• 38:05
  this,
• 38:05
  Absolutely
• 38:05
  anyone.
• 38:06
  I
• 38:06
  think
• 38:06
  I'm
• 38:07
  going
• 38:07
  to
• 38:07
  take
• 38:07
  you
• 38:07
  up
• 38:07
  on
• 38:07
  that
• 38:07
  challenge
• 38:08
  to
• 38:08
  try
• 38:08
  and
• 38:09
  maybe
• 38:09
  even
• 38:09
  I'll
• 38:09
  share
• 38:09
  the
• 38:10
  results.
• 38:10
  Although
• 38:10
  that
• 38:11
  is
• 38:11
  very
• 38:11
  brave
• 38:11
  of
• 38:11
  me
• 38:11
  because
• 38:12
  I
• 38:12
  am
• 38:12
  really
• 38:12
  bad
• 38:13
  at
• 38:13
  drawing.
• 38:13
  Now
• 38:14
  you
• 38:14
  have
• 38:14
  a
• 38:14
  free
• 38:14
  lesson.
• 38:15
  So
• 38:15
  if
• 38:15
  anyone
• 38:15
  else
• 38:15
  is
• 38:15
  listening
• 38:16
  and
• 38:16
  they're
• 38:16
  thinking,
• 38:16
  this
• 38:17
  sounds
• 38:17
  really
• 38:17
  interesting,
• 38:17
  I'm
• 38:18
  interested
• 38:18
  in
• 38:18
  what
• 38:19
  Becky's
• 38:19
  doing
• 38:19
  now.
• 38:19
  I'm
• 38:20
  interested
• 38:20
  in
• 38:20
  how
• 38:20
  it's
• 38:21
  helped
• 38:21
  her
• 38:22
  find
• 38:22
  these
• 38:22
  mindful
• 38:23
  moments
• 38:23
  in
• 38:23
  between
• 38:23
  running

• 38:25
  How
• 38:25
  do
• 38:25
  people
• 38:26
  go
• 38:26
  about
• 38:26
  finding
• 38:26
  this
• 38:27
  lesson
• 38:27
  and
• 38:27
  what
• 38:27
  do
• 38:27
  they
• 38:27
  need
• 38:28
  to
• 38:28
  get
• 38:28
  started?
• 38:28
  Well,
• 38:29
  first
• 38:29
  of
• 38:29
  all,
• 38:29
  you're
• 38:30
  right,
• 38:30
  anyone
• 38:30
  can
• 38:31
  do
• 38:31
  it.
• 38:31
  Because
• 38:31
  the
• 38:31
  thing
• 38:32
  with
• 38:32
  Zentangle
• 38:32
  is
• 38:32
  that
• 38:32
  you're
• 38:33
  not
• 38:33
  drawing
• 38:33
  a
• 38:34
  thing.
• 38:34
  Like
• 38:34
  if
• 38:34
  I
• 38:35
  was
• 38:35
  to
• 38:35
  sit
• 38:35
  down
• 38:35
  and
• 38:35
  try
• 38:35
  and
• 38:35
  draw,
• 38:36
  draw
• 38:36
  like
• 38:36
  a
• 38:36
  bowl
• 38:37
  of
• 38:37
  fruit,
• 38:37
  then
• 38:37
  I
• 38:37
  would
• 38:37
  fail
• 38:38
  miserably
• 38:38
  because
• 38:39
  it
• 38:39
  wouldn't
• 38:39
  look
• 38:39
  good.
• 38:40
  I
• 38:40
  would
• 38:40
  think
• 38:40
  it
• 38:41
  was
• 38:41
  rubbish.
• 38:41
  And
• 38:41
  actually
• 38:42
  with
• 38:42
  Zentangle
• 38:43
  you're
• 38:43
  not
• 38:43
  drawing
• 38:43
  a
• 38:44
  thing.
• 38:44
  It's
• 38:44
  non
• 38:44
  representational,
• 38:45
  so
• 38:45
  you're
• 38:46
  just
• 38:46
  drawing
• 38:46
  patterns
• 38:47
  and
• 38:47
  so
• 38:47
  you
• 38:47
  can't
• 38:47
  do
• 38:47
  it
• 38:48
  wrong.
• 38:48
  If
• 38:48
  you
• 38:48
  can
• 38:48
  write
• 38:49
  the
• 38:49
  letters
• 38:49
  I,
• 38:49
  C,
• 38:49
  S
• 38:50
  and
• 38:50
  O.
• 38:50
  You
• 38:50
  can
• 38:51
  create
• 38:51
  any
• 38:51
  of
• 38:51
  the
• 38:51
  zentangle
• 38:52
  patterns
• 38:52
  and
• 38:52
  I
• 38:52
  promise
• 38:53
  you
• 38:53
  that
• 38:53
  that's
• 38:53
  true.
• 38:53
  So
• 38:54
  I
• 38:54
  have
• 38:54
  a
• 38:54
  free
• 38:54
  lesson
• 38:55
  on
• 38:55
  my
• 38:55
  website.
• 38:55
  So
• 38:55
  if
• 38:55
  you
• 38:56
  go
• 38:56
  to
• 38:56
  ivy-corner.com
• 38:58
  and
• 38:58
  then
• 38:58
  go
• 38:58
  to
• 38:58
  Freebies,
• 38:59

  which
• 39:01
  is
• 39:01
  complete
• 39:01
  introduction
• 39:02
  to
• 39:02
  the
• 39:02
  Zentangle
• 39:02
  method.
• 39:03
  And
• 39:03
  then
• 39:03
  I
• 39:03
  also
• 39:03
  have
• 39:03
  a
• 39:04
  beginner's
• 39:04
  course
• 39:04
  and
• 39:04
  various
• 39:05
  other
• 39:05
  things
• 39:05
  if
• 39:05
  you
• 39:05
  want
• 39:06
  to
• 39:06
  delve
• 39:06
  a
• 39:06
  little
• 39:06
  bit
• 39:06
  deeper.
• 39:07
  So,
• 39:07
  so
• 39:07
  for
• 39:07
  the
• 39:07
  free
• 39:08
  lesson,
• 39:08
  then
• 39:08
  what
• 39:08
  do
• 39:09
  I
• 39:09
  need
• 39:09
  to
• 39:09
  make
• 39:09
  it
• 39:09
  happen?
• 39:10
  Because
• 39:10
  I
• 39:10
  think
• 39:10
  me
• 39:11
  and
• 39:11
  the
• 39:11
  podcast
• 39:11
  listeners
• 39:12
  should
• 39:12
  absolutely
• 39:13
  make
• 39:14
  a
• 39:14
  pledge
• 39:14
  that
• 39:14
  we're
• 39:14
  gonna
• 39:14
  try
• 39:15
  it.
• 39:15
  We're
• 39:15
  gonna
• 39:15
  try,
• 39:16
  even
• 39:16
  though
• 39:16
  we're
• 39:16
  very
• 39:17
  busy
• 39:17
  today,
• 39:17
  we're
• 39:17
  gonna
• 39:18
  try
• 39:18
  and
• 39:18
  take
• 39:18
  10
• 39:19
  minutes
• 39:19
  out.
• 39:19
  How
• 39:19
  much
• 39:20
  do
• 39:20
  we
• 39:20
  need
• 39:20
  10
• 39:20
  minutes,
• 39:20
  30
• 39:21
  minutes
• 39:21
  out
• 39:21
  of
• 39:21
  our
• 39:21
  day
• 39:22
  to
• 39:22
  do
• 39:22
  it?
• 39:22
  And
• 39:22
  what
• 39:23
  do
• 39:23
  I
• 39:23
  actually
• 39:23
  physically
• 39:24
  need
• 39:24
  to
• 39:24
  do
• 39:24
  it?
• 39:24
  Do
• 39:24
  I
• 39:24
  just
• 39:24
  need
• 39:24
  a
• 39:25
  pen
• 39:25
  and
• 39:25
  a
• 39:25
  piece
• 39:25
  of
• 39:25
  paper?
• 39:26
  Yeah,
• 39:26
  basically
• 39:26
  all
• 39:27
  you
• 39:27
  need
• 39:27
  is
• 39:27
  a
• 39:28
  pen
• 39:28
  and
• 39:28
  a
• 39:29
  pencil.
• 39:30
  There's
• 39:30
  a
• 39:30
  thing
• 39:30
  called
• 39:30
  a
• 39:30
  tortillon
• 39:31
  which
• 39:31
  is
• 39:31
  like
• 39:32
  a
• 39:32
  rolled
• 39:32
  up
• 39:32
  paper
• 39:32
  stump
• 39:33
  if
• 39:33
  you
• 39:33
  don't
• 39:33
  have
• 39:33
  one
• 39:33
  of
• 39:33
  those.
• 39:34
  And
• 39:34
  you
• 39:34
  can
• 39:34
  get
• 39:34
  them
• 39:34
  off
• 39:34
  Amazon
• 39:35
  for
• 39:35
  quite
• 39:35
  cheap.
• 39:35
  But
• 39:35
  if
• 39:36
  you
• 39:36
  don't
• 39:36
  have
• 39:36
  one
• 39:36
  of
• 39:36
  those,
• 39:37
  you
• 39:37
  can
• 39:37
  use
• 39:37
  a
• 39:37
  cotton
• 39:37
  bud
• 39:38
  or
• 39:38
  your
• 39:38
  finger
• 39:38
  finger
• 39:39
  to
• 39:39
  smudge
• 39:39
  and
• 39:39
  create,
• 39:40
  smudge
• 39:41
  the
• 39:41
  pencil
• 39:41
  and
• 39:41
  create
• 39:41
  some
• 39:42
  shadows
• 39:42
  and
• 39:42
  shading.
• 39:43
  But
• 39:43
  yeah,
• 39:44
  like
• 39:44
  you
• 39:44
  can
• 39:44
  really
• 39:44
  do
• 39:45
  it
• 39:45
  with
• 39:45
  anything
• 39:45
  that
• 39:46
  you
• 39:46
  have
• 39:46
  to
• 39:46
  hand
• 39:46
  at
• 39:46
  home.
• 39:47
  Some
• 39:48
  regular
• 39:48
  paper
• 39:48
  or
• 39:49
  like
• 39:49
  watercolor
• 39:50
  paper
• 39:50
  or
• 39:50
  just,
• 39:50
  you
• 39:51
  know,
• 39:51
  some
• 39:51
  regular
• 39:52
  paper
• 39:52
  or
• 39:52
  just,
• 39:52
  you
• 39:52
  know,
• 39:53
  watercolor
• 39:53
  paper
• 39:54
  would
• 39:54
  also
• 39:55
  work
• 39:55
  fine.
• 39:55
  But
• 39:56
  yeah,
• 39:56
  you
• 39:56
  really
• 39:56
  don't
• 39:57
  need
• 39:57
  a
• 39:57
  lot
• 39:57
  of
• 39:57
  stuff
• 39:57
  to
• 39:58
  try
• 39:58
  it.
• 39:58
  Okay,
• 39:58
  we're
• 39:59
  up
• 39:59
  for
• 39:59
  the
• 39:59
  challenge,
• 40:00
  so
• 40:00
  I'm
• 40:00
  hoping
• 40:00
  some
• 40:01
  of
• 40:01
  the
• 40:01
  listeners
• 40:01
  are
• 40:01
  going
• 40:01
  to
• 40:01
  be
• 40:01
  up
• 40:02
  for
• 40:02
  the
• 40:02
  challenge
• 40:02
  too,
• 40:02
  because
• 40:02
  I
• 40:03
  really
• 40:03
  am
• 40:03
  terrible
• 40:04
  at
• 40:04
  drawing.
• 40:04
  Baking
• 40:05
  and
• 40:05
  drawing
• 40:05
  are
• 40:05
  the
• 40:06
  two
• 40:06
  things
• 40:06
  I
• 40:06
  am
• 40:06
  the
• 40:06
  worst
• 40:07
  at.
• 40:07
  But
• 40:07
  I'm
• 40:07
  going
• 40:07
  to
• 40:07
  give
• 40:07
  it
• 40:07
  a
• 40:08
  go
• 40:08
  because
• 40:08
  I
• 40:08
  do
• 40:08
  know
• 40:09
  that
• 40:09
  it's
• 40:09
  important
• 40:09
  for
• 40:10
  me
• 40:10
  to
• 40:10
  stop
• 40:10
  doing
• 40:10
  scrolling
• 40:11
  and
• 40:11
  to
• 40:11
  have
• 40:11
  some
• 40:12
  breaks.
• 40:12
  And
• 40:12
  today,
• 40:13
  particularly
• 40:13
  when
• 40:13
  we're
• 40:13
  recording
• 40:14
  this,
• 40:14
  I've
• 40:14
  said
• 40:14
  to
• 40:14
  you
• 40:15
  I'm
• 40:15
  overwhelmed.
• 40:16
  And
• 40:16
  I
• 40:16
  think
• 40:16
  that
• 40:16
  means
• 40:17
  on
• 40:17
  my
• 40:17
  lunch
• 40:17
  break
• 40:18
  I'm
• 40:18
  going
• 40:18
  to
• 40:18
  give
• 40:18
  this
• 40:18
  a
• 40:18
  go
• 40:19
  and
• 40:19
  whatever
• 40:20
  it
• 40:20
  looks
• 40:20
  like,
• 40:20
  I
• 40:21
  guarantee
• 40:21
  I
• 40:21
  will
• 40:21
  share
• 40:22
  the
• 40:22
  results.
• 40:22
  So
• 40:22
  if
• 40:22
  you
• 40:23
  are
• 40:23
  listening
• 40:23
  to
• 40:24
  this
• 40:24
  and
• 40:24
  you
• 40:24
  want
• 40:25
  to
• 40:25
  take
• 40:25
  up
• 40:25
  that
• 40:25
  challenge
• 40:25
  with
• 40:26
  me,
• 40:26
  then
• 40:26
  take
• 40:26
  a
• 40:27
  photo
• 40:27
  of
• 40:27
  it.
• 40:27
  And
• 40:28
  if
• 40:28
  you
• 40:28
  don't
• 40:28
  want
• 40:28
  to
• 40:28
  post
• 40:28
  it,
• 40:29
  send
• 40:29
  it
• 40:29
  to
• 40:29
  Becky,
• 40:30
  send
• 40:30
  it
• 40:30
  to
• 40:30
  me,
• 40:30
  and
• 40:30
  I'll
• 40:31
  share
• 40:31
  all
• 40:31
  of
• 40:31
  the
• 40:31
  links
• 40:32
  to
• 40:32
  everything
• 40:32
  in
• 40:32
  the
• 40:33
  show.
• 40:33
  Notes
• 40:33
  Becky.
• 40:33
  It's
• 40:34
  a
• 40:34
  Pleasure
• 40:34
  to
• 40:34
  have
• 40:35
  you
• 40:35
  on
• 40:35
  this
• 40:35
  podcast.
• 40:35
  As
• 40:36
  always,
• 40:36
  I've
• 40:36
  loved,
• 40:37
  loved
• 40:37
  seeing
• 40:37
  your
• 40:38
  journey
• 40:38
  through
• 40:38
  the
• 40:38
  ups
• 40:39
  and
• 40:39
  downs.
• 40:39
  That's
• 40:40
  like
• 40:40
  I
• 40:40
  said,
• 40:40
  what
• 40:40
  I
• 40:40
  love
• 40:41
  about
• 40:41
  working
• 40:41
  with
• 40:41
  people
• 40:41
  and
• 40:42
  being
• 40:42
  friends
• 40:42
  with
• 40:42
  people
• 40:42
  for
• 40:43
  such
• 40:43
  a
• 40:43
  long
• 40:43
  time
• 40:43
  and
• 40:44
  seeing
• 40:44
  how
• 40:44
  things
• 40:44
  evolve.
• 40:45
  And
• 40:45
  I
• 40:45
  love
• 40:46
  that
• 40:46
  you've
• 40:46
  got
• 40:46
  this
• 40:46
  new
• 40:47
  creative
• 40:47
  part
• 40:48
  of
• 40:48
  your
• 40:48
  business
• 40:48
  that's
• 40:49

  Thank

  much,

  Becca.
• 41:41
  I'll
• 41:41
  see
• 41:42
  you
• 41:42
  soon.
• 41:42
  Such
• 41:42
  an
• 41:43
  interesting
• 41:43
  conversation.
• 41:44
  Was
• 41:44
  it
• 41:44
  with
• 41:44
  Becky?
• 41:44
  I
• 41:45
  think
• 41:45
  one
• 41:45
  of
• 41:45
  the
• 41:45
  things
• 41:45
  we
• 41:46
  just
• 41:46
  think
• 41:46
  we
• 41:46
  don't
• 41:47
  think
• 41:47
  about
• 41:47
  enough
• 41:47
  is
• 41:48
  burnout
• 41:48
  and
• 41:48
  overwhelm
• 41:49
  and
• 41:49
  how
• 41:50
  these
• 41:50
  things
• 41:50
  pile
• 41:51
  on
• 41:51
  top
• 41:51
  of
• 41:51
  us.
• 41:51
  And
• 41:51
  if
• 41:52
  you're
• 41:52
  listening
• 41:52
  to
• 41:52
  this
• 41:53
  thinking,
• 41:53
  yeah,
• 41:53
  I'm
• 41:53
  suffering
• 41:54
  with
• 41:54
  some
• 41:54
  of
• 41:54
  those
• 41:54
  symptoms.
• 41:55
  Yes,
• 41:55
  I
• 41:55
  feel
• 41:55
  like
• 41:56
  I'm
• 41:56
  disengaged
• 41:57
  and
• 41:57
  not
• 41:57
  connected
• 41:58
  with
• 41:58
  my
• 41:58
  business
• 41:58
  at
• 41:58
  the
• 41:58
  moment.
• 41:59
  It's
• 41:59
  probably
• 41:59
  a
• 41:59
  sign
• 42:00
  to
• 42:00
  take
• 42:00
  a
• 42:00
  break
• 42:00
  and
• 42:01
  take
• 42:01
  some
• 42:01
  time
• 42:01
  out.
• 42:01
  So
• 42:02
  find
• 42:02
  something
• 42:02
  that
• 42:03
  you
• 42:03
  love.
• 42:03
  Just
• 42:03
  take
• 42:04
  a
• 42:04
  step
• 42:04
  away
• 42:04
  because
• 42:04
  often
• 42:05
  taking
• 42:05
  a
• 42:05
  step
• 42:05
  back
• 42:06
  and
• 42:06
  getting
• 42:06
  back
• 42:06
  to
• 42:06
  a
• 42:07
  better
• 42:07
  mindset
• 42:07
  will
• 42:07
  actually
• 42:08
  make
• 42:08
  you
• 42:08
  more
• 42:08
  productive
• 42:09
  for
• 42:09
  the
• 42:09
  rest
• 42:09
  of
• 42:09
  the
• 42:09
  week.
• 42:10
  And
• 42:10
  wish
• 42:10
  me
• 42:10
  luck
• 42:11
  with
• 42:11
  my
• 42:11
  Zentangling.
• 42:12
  I'll
• 42:12
  see
• 42:12
  you
• 42:12
  all
• 42:12
  next
• 42:12
  time.
