Gift biz unwrapped episode 23.
Speaker:What you put in your mouth has a direct causation on
Speaker:how you feel in 20 minutes.
Speaker:Hi, this is John Lee,
Speaker:Dumas of entrepreneur on fire,
Speaker:and you're listening to the gift of biz unwrapped,
Speaker:and now it's time to light it up.
Speaker:Welcome To gift biz,
Speaker:unwrapped your source for industry specific insights and advice to develop
Speaker:and grow your business.
Speaker:And now here's your host,
Speaker:Sue Monheit Hi there and welcome to the gift biz unwrapped
Speaker:podcast. Whether you own a brick and mortar shop sell online
Speaker:or are just getting started,
Speaker:you'll discover new insight to gain traction and to grow your
Speaker:business. And today I am so pleased to have Carl Pils
Speaker:join us today.
Speaker:Carl is a former member of the corporate world who allowed
Speaker:work and business to take over his life so much so
Speaker:that he ballooned to 224 pounds with absolutely no energy left.
Speaker:He decided to dive into the nutrition world and committed himself
Speaker:to learning the truth.
Speaker:And I emphasize truth about how our body works after losing
Speaker:53 pounds.
Speaker:Carl now helps others take a similar journey.
Speaker:He does this through his website,
Speaker:nutrition to the edge.com
Speaker:and the I'm too busy for nutrition podcast.
Speaker:Welcome to the show,
Speaker:Carl, Thanks so much for having me looking forward to it.
Speaker:Is there anything you'd like to add to your intro before
Speaker:we get started?
Speaker:Yeah. You know,
Speaker:just my background,
Speaker:where I came from,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:I was an engineer by traditional schooling.
Speaker:I was an electrical engineer and got into technical sales and
Speaker:just that corporate traveling that lifestyle where you're taking customers out
Speaker:to dinner and out for drinks and trying to catch all
Speaker:the meals on the road.
Speaker:It was fun at first,
Speaker:but after a while,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:I blew it up actually to 227 pounds and I'm a
Speaker:five, eight foot guy and for a five,
Speaker:eight guy,
Speaker:227 is a hefty fella looking back.
Speaker:It's really incredible how much I weighed and how badly my
Speaker:health got out of control.
Speaker:It's amazing when I just started looking at this and took
Speaker:off down this road,
Speaker:it's really incredible how your life changes and how big,
Speaker:a difference,
Speaker:little changes make.
Speaker:Just when you get started,
Speaker:understanding how your body kind of as a system works.
Speaker:So we'll get into all that today.
Speaker:We will get Into all that today.
Speaker:And I think a lot of our listeners can really relate
Speaker:to this situation because especially if you come out of a
Speaker:corporate world and you are entertaining all the time,
Speaker:it's that delicate balance.
Speaker:Because if you have a client who wants to go out
Speaker:for nice dinners and have some wine,
Speaker:or you're taking them to a ball game and you know,
Speaker:along with that comes,
Speaker:drink and food,
Speaker:how do you decline or make smart choices?
Speaker:It's so easy just to walk down the road that you
Speaker:went Down,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:it's almost rude to decline if somebody offers you and you
Speaker:have a business relationship on it.
Speaker:So a lot of times you take more than you want
Speaker:just because it's the right thing to do.
Speaker:Yep. So I think a lot of us have been there
Speaker:with you,
Speaker:Carl. Yeah.
Speaker:Well, as our listeners know,
Speaker:we align the conversation around the life of a motivational candle.
Speaker:The light shines on you while you share your stories and
Speaker:experiences. So Carl shall we light it up when you share,
Speaker:so guess what?
Speaker:You just walked into a gift store.
Speaker:You see a whole shelf of really colorful candles.
Speaker:What color candle are you going to pick?
Speaker:Is blue.
Speaker:Blue is very soothing to me and that's very important.
Speaker:What shade of blue is it not so dark?
Speaker:It's a light blue kind of reminds me this guy.
Speaker:And I find that very calming.
Speaker:Okay. And what kind of a quote is on your candle?
Speaker:I actually like to give you two,
Speaker:if you don't mind.
Speaker:Sure. They're both blue.
Speaker:Just because,
Speaker:like I said,
Speaker:I like that calming feeling.
Speaker:Oh, so You're taking two candles,
Speaker:not just two quotes.
Speaker:You're also taking two candles.
Speaker:Two candles.
Speaker:Yes. Okay.
Speaker:You got it.
Speaker:The first one says learn to be comfortable being uncomfortable.
Speaker:If we're always sitting in our comfort zone,
Speaker:we are not growing.
Speaker:And whenever we are pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zone,
Speaker:which is what we have to do to be successful entrepreneurs,
Speaker:it's going to be uncomfortable.
Speaker:And it's always going to be like that.
Speaker:If you keep pushing yourself to grow,
Speaker:so that's never going to go away.
Speaker:So the best thing that we can learn to do is
Speaker:to learn,
Speaker:to be comfortable,
Speaker:being uncomfortable.
Speaker:Makes sense.
Speaker:I like it.
Speaker:It's second quote.
Speaker:I heard a long time ago because entrepreneurship is living briefly.
Speaker:Like no one else will so that you can live the
Speaker:rest of your life.
Speaker:Like no one else can,
Speaker:that really sums up what we have to do and where
Speaker:we're going.
Speaker:It Justifies the time in when you're an entrepreneur and you're
Speaker:building a business.
Speaker:There's so much time in the front and so much,
Speaker:as you said,
Speaker:areas being uncomfortable,
Speaker:being fearful,
Speaker:not sure exactly where this is all going to lead,
Speaker:but if you can have that vision of where you're going
Speaker:to be in the end,
Speaker:that really helps.
Speaker:And you might catch a lot of flack from family and
Speaker:friends about why,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:why are you putting so much time into it?
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:you're not enjoying your life.
Speaker:And you know,
Speaker:you only live once you tend to hear a lot,
Speaker:but once you get to the point of the jump and
Speaker:now your life is yours,
Speaker:totally. And you can just take off for a month,
Speaker:go rent a house down by the beach and work from
Speaker:the beach for a month.
Speaker:If you want,
Speaker:like no one else can,
Speaker:then it was all worth It.
Speaker:Absolutely you are right.
Speaker:And that leads into why I wanted to have you on
Speaker:the show today because building a business,
Speaker:you tend to get so entwined in everything that's going on.
Speaker:Things continue to build issues happen from time to time,
Speaker:it gets very stressful.
Speaker:And you know,
Speaker:we start neglecting our health.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:maybe you don't start going to the club as much as
Speaker:you used to because you're so focused on the next task
Speaker:that has to happen.
Speaker:Possibly you don't have employees or anybody to help you yet
Speaker:less support than maybe you did in a corporate environment or
Speaker:working for somebody else.
Speaker:And our health starts to fail because we're ignoring our bodies
Speaker:and ourselves.
Speaker:That's what I wanted to talk with you about today is
Speaker:how do we make sure we stay the most fit we
Speaker:can possibly be to set ourselves up for the most success
Speaker:we can have in our business.
Speaker:But let's jump back for just a minute.
Speaker:And can you explain to us what happens?
Speaker:How does eating affect our productivity and our ability To focus?
Speaker:Yes. One of the biggest things that people don't realize is
Speaker:that when we eat,
Speaker:when we're told that we should eat healthy,
Speaker:usually we're giving a lot of effort by the right foods
Speaker:and cook the right meals and all that stuff.
Speaker:We're investing a lot of effort upfront.
Speaker:And the result that we're supposed to get,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:the reward that we're supposed to get in return is only,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:later in life you'll be disease free.
Speaker:Well, I don't know anybody that gets excited about putting all
Speaker:this investment upfront only to get a reward,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:far off in the distance.
Speaker:That's what people tend to think.
Speaker:What I show people is that what you put in your
Speaker:mouth has a direct causation on how you feel in 20
Speaker:minutes, we're going to talk about brain chemistry today,
Speaker:all these brain chemicals that control how we feel and what
Speaker:most people don't realize is there are brain chemicals and hormones
Speaker:that are controlling our levels of energy and focus.
Speaker:And most people are doing things in their life that are
Speaker:destroying these brain chemicals.
Speaker:And they're doing it three to five times a day.
Speaker:That is really why our energy and focus levels are so
Speaker:inconsistent. Sometimes we'll do something that doesn't sabotage this,
Speaker:but most of the time we are,
Speaker:it's very short in terms of cause and effect.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:that timeframe it's very short.
Speaker:Seriously. You're saying that after someone listens to our conversation today,
Speaker:if they start employing some of the things that you're going
Speaker:to talk about,
Speaker:that they could feel differently in less than Half an hour.
Speaker:No doubt,
Speaker:20 minutes,
Speaker:no doubt.
Speaker:Wow, Carry on.
Speaker:Now. I'm curious.
Speaker:Here's how it all works.
Speaker:The way that we feel.
Speaker:And you know,
Speaker:we're talking to entrepreneurs and as entrepreneurs,
Speaker:we have a lot of balls in the air.
Speaker:We have so much going on with building a business.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:especially if you have a day job right now,
Speaker:and you're trying to build a business on the side.
Speaker:Now you're committing 40 to 50 to 60 hours a week
Speaker:at a company then coming home and devoting another 10 to
Speaker:20 hours to a side project.
Speaker:At the same time,
Speaker:you probably have a family and a house to keep up
Speaker:and a yard that needs maintained all this stuff that we
Speaker:have to get done.
Speaker:We don't have time to be tired and foggy.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:we just don't have the time we have too much to
Speaker:do. And a lot of people are fighting feeling like they
Speaker:need naps.
Speaker:A lot of brain fog,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:just can't concentrate.
Speaker:Their levels of energy are just shut all the time.
Speaker:A lot of people I think get really frustrated because when
Speaker:this is going on for so long and there's seems to
Speaker:be nothing that we can do about it,
Speaker:we seem to associate this with,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:this is just who I am.
Speaker:I'm just type of person.
Speaker:And that's when it gets really discouraging Either that,
Speaker:or it's like,
Speaker:I'm working so hard on the business.
Speaker:I just have to keep humbling along.
Speaker:I have to keep doing it.
Speaker:I have to keep doing it.
Speaker:And this is the sacrifice I'm making.
Speaker:But what you're saying is that fogginess and that tiredness can
Speaker:be affected or is being caused by what we're eating.
Speaker:Yes, definitely.
Speaker:And here's how,
Speaker:okay. So if we want to have the highest levels of
Speaker:energy and focus and productivity,
Speaker:and also we're going to see confidence,
Speaker:optimism and creativity are all controlled by the same thing.
Speaker:So this is all one big cornucopia of the feelings that
Speaker:we want,
Speaker:that we're going to talk about.
Speaker:So there's a place where all these feelings come from,
Speaker:all these attributes,
Speaker:energy and focus,
Speaker:productivity, all that.
Speaker:They come from our brain,
Speaker:all these feelings.
Speaker:They come from our brain more specifically,
Speaker:they come from a mixture of brain chemicals and we've all
Speaker:heard of a good bit of these.
Speaker:One of them is serotonin.
Speaker:Serotonin. We know is our natural antidepressant,
Speaker:dopamine and adrenaline and our endorphins.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:we've all heard of some of these brain chemicals.
Speaker:These are the brain chemicals that control how we feel.
Speaker:Serotonin is our natural antidepressant.
Speaker:When serotonin is high,
Speaker:we feel confident,
Speaker:optimistic. We feel really ready to take on anything.
Speaker:Dopamine and adrenaline are our action and focus brain chemicals.
Speaker:We have all the energy and focus that we need to
Speaker:get everything that we need to done.
Speaker:And then endorphins.
Speaker:Those are,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:we've all heard of endorphins,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:sex and chocolate raise endorphins,
Speaker:but endorphins allow us to enjoy our lives.
Speaker:They allow us to enjoy the benefits of what we've been
Speaker:doing. A good way to describe the feeling of high endorphins
Speaker:is we can feel the rush of life.
Speaker:And these brain chemicals are really what control,
Speaker:how we feel.
Speaker:We cannot underestimate these pharmaceutical companies,
Speaker:know this pharmaceutical companies who make antidepressant drugs,
Speaker:those drugs work by manipulating these brain chemicals because those companies
Speaker:know how a small tweak in them could cause a massive
Speaker:effect in how we feel now,
Speaker:what most people don't realize is these brain chemicals come from
Speaker:food, the right foods build them and the wrong foods destroy
Speaker:them. And that's why it's so inconsistent when we can get
Speaker:ourselves into this insanely productive place where we have high levels
Speaker:of energy focus productivity.
Speaker:Because for most of us,
Speaker:we are doing things at every meal that are destroying these
Speaker:brain chemicals.
Speaker:And so when these brain chemicals are low,
Speaker:that's when we fight being tired,
Speaker:being foggy,
Speaker:being not confident,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:being overly self critical.
Speaker:That's where all these feelings come from when these brain chemicals
Speaker:are low.
Speaker:So for the vast majority of people,
Speaker:we're doing things at every meal that are destroying and sabotaging
Speaker:these brain chemicals.
Speaker:That's really the big concept.
Speaker:So here's a question for you,
Speaker:you know how people will say,
Speaker:oh, I'm in such good mood today.
Speaker:Everything's going right.
Speaker:You might not say this,
Speaker:but you know,
Speaker:I have a lot of confidence and you know,
Speaker:I'm just,
Speaker:I'm on top of the world.
Speaker:Are you suggesting that it's some unknown thing that they've done
Speaker:it, the combination of foods that they've eaten or something that
Speaker:might've put them in that state.
Speaker:It's not just this random,
Speaker:oh, I woke up today and I'm having a good Day.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:it's, it's combination of both.
Speaker:It's not totally controlled by a nutrition,
Speaker:but nutrition is a large,
Speaker:large part of it.
Speaker:We all know people who have lots of success and a
Speaker:lot of things that should be making us happy,
Speaker:but they're miserable.
Speaker:And a lot of the problem is that their diet is
Speaker:terrible. And what they ate for lunch is really sabotaging how
Speaker:they feel right now,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:an hour later.
Speaker:Oh my gosh.
Speaker:And then they're going to the doctor to get antidepressants or
Speaker:something. Now,
Speaker:first off,
Speaker:if you're taking antidepressants,
Speaker:do not stop taking them without medical supervision because the withdrawal
Speaker:effects can be really severe,
Speaker:like up to and including suicide.
Speaker:Okay? So don't stop taking them without supervision.
Speaker:But that also shows how powerful these brain chemicals are.
Speaker:Let's talk about how,
Speaker:if we want to have the highest levels of energy and
Speaker:focus and productivity,
Speaker:our goal should be to build these brain chemicals up high
Speaker:and not destroy them.
Speaker:Okay. Right.
Speaker:So how do we do that?
Speaker:Let's talk about how these brain chemicals are made.
Speaker:These brain chemicals come from protein,
Speaker:beef, chicken,
Speaker:fish, dairy beans,
Speaker:whatever, wherever you get your protein.
Speaker:That is the building block.
Speaker:More specifically,
Speaker:the brain chemicals are made from amino acids,
Speaker:which are the building blocks of protein.
Speaker:So when we eat proteins,
Speaker:so let's say we eat a steak,
Speaker:it goes into our stomach and it gets digested and it
Speaker:gets broken down into individual amino acids.
Speaker:Some of them are tryptofan tyrasine lysine,
Speaker:phenol, alanine.
Speaker:These are all amino acids.
Speaker:And don't worry about remembering names.
Speaker:We're just going to go through this.
Speaker:But these amino acids,
Speaker:after they're digested and broken down from the protein,
Speaker:the amino acids hop into our bloodstream and they circulate around
Speaker:our body and they do a lot of different things.
Speaker:They do things like make muscle,
Speaker:make bone,
Speaker:make blood,
Speaker:but a lot of them hit up to our brain to
Speaker:make these brain chemicals.
Speaker:And now the brain chemicals are made from different amino acids
Speaker:like serotonin is made from tryptofan the amino acid for all
Speaker:these brain chemicals.
Speaker:The process is amino acid plus vitamins equals brain chemical.
Speaker:So that's why we need the vitamins.
Speaker:That's why we need to eat things like vegetables and fruits.
Speaker:But so tryptofan will go up to our brain,
Speaker:combined with vitamins and make serotonin tyrasine is another amino acid,
Speaker:which will combine with vitamins,
Speaker:go into our brain.
Speaker:And that will make adrenaline and dopamine and fennel.
Speaker:Alanine is another immuno acid,
Speaker:which are combined with vitamins to produce our endorphins.
Speaker:That's where our endorphins come from.
Speaker:So that's where these brain chemicals are made.
Speaker:When you just hear that slice of this process,
Speaker:what do you think?
Speaker:The number one way that people are sabotaging their energy and
Speaker:focus? Well,
Speaker:they're not eating protein and fruits and vegetables.
Speaker:Exactly. The first thing is you're not giving your body,
Speaker:the building blocks to build these brain chemicals.
Speaker:A lot of people are not getting protein at every meal
Speaker:for breakfast,
Speaker:we're having coffee or we're going to Starbucks and you know,
Speaker:even worse going and getting a coffee and a piece of
Speaker:banana bread at Starbucks.
Speaker:Oh, Carl,
Speaker:Do not tell me I have to give up Starbucks,
Speaker:Please. No,
Speaker:you can go to Starbucks,
Speaker:get your coffee or tea or whatever,
Speaker:try to drink it black or with cream.
Speaker:But some of those drinks look at the nutritional information.
Speaker:One of their caramel macchiatos and a piece of banana bread.
Speaker:You may as well eat 13 slices of white bread.
Speaker:That's how many carbs are in that food.
Speaker:Okay. So luckily I'm not doing that,
Speaker:but now I'm not that bad,
Speaker:but what you're saying,
Speaker:and you've just put in a new word here,
Speaker:which is carbs.
Speaker:So you're saying to stay away from carbs.
Speaker:Well, let's get to that in a second.
Speaker:We'll get the way we'll go.
Speaker:For the most part,
Speaker:most people are not,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:they're doing just coffee or something for breakfast,
Speaker:or they're doing pizza for dinner or just spaghetti,
Speaker:or they're doing cereal.
Speaker:All these meals that contain very little protein.
Speaker:And so they are not giving their body.
Speaker:The building blocks the raw materials to make these brain chemicals.
Speaker:And the more that you do it,
Speaker:then the lower and the lower your brain chemicals get the
Speaker:longer you go without providing your body with raw materials,
Speaker:the lower your brain chemical levels will get and your energy
Speaker:and your focus deteriorate over time.
Speaker:So that's the first problem is that we're not giving our
Speaker:bodies, the raw materials to build the brain chemicals.
Speaker:Now here's the second and it has to do with carbs.
Speaker:And let's shift a little bit and talk about how carbohydrates
Speaker:are digested and what happens when we carbs.
Speaker:This means any carbs,
Speaker:fruits, vegetables,
Speaker:beans, white bread,
Speaker:white rice,
Speaker:sugar, candy soda,
Speaker:whatever, any carbs that we eat goes into our stomach and
Speaker:it gets digested and turned into sugar.
Speaker:And then that sugar jumps into our bloodstream.
Speaker:And that's what we call our blood sugar.
Speaker:Okay. So blood sugar is what we're going to be talking
Speaker:about. It's very important,
Speaker:but so that happens to all carbs.
Speaker:Now the difference between the different carbs is how long that
Speaker:takes. And it has to do with fiber.
Speaker:Fiber is what slows the digestion of carbs down because what
Speaker:our body likes is a nice,
Speaker:slow delivery of carbs into our bloodstream.
Speaker:So when we eat carbs that have a lot of fiber
Speaker:and therefore digest nice and slowly,
Speaker:here's the process.
Speaker:We eat high fiber carbs.
Speaker:They go into our stomach and they're digested slowly and therefore
Speaker:little bits of carbs get put into our bloodstream at a
Speaker:time. It's kind of like an IB drip of carbs into
Speaker:our bloodstream.
Speaker:And therefore our blood sugar rises nice and slow over the
Speaker:period of three,
Speaker:four or five hours,
Speaker:depending on the person.
Speaker:But our body likes to maintain our blood sugar in a
Speaker:healthy range,
Speaker:not too high and not too low.
Speaker:And if we eat those high fiber carbs that are entering
Speaker:our bloodstream very slowly,
Speaker:our blood sugar stays well within that healthy range.
Speaker:And when that happens,
Speaker:everything is happy.
Speaker:Our body is happy.
Speaker:Everything is getting their fuel.
Speaker:Like they like it.
Speaker:Okay. Now the problem comes when we eat what I call
Speaker:quick digesting carbohydrates.
Speaker:And these are carbs with little to no fiber in them.
Speaker:And we're talking about basically sugar and white carbs is what
Speaker:I say.
Speaker:And by sugar,
Speaker:we're talking about soda or candy or cookies or whatever.
Speaker:And then by white carbs,
Speaker:we're talking about white bread,
Speaker:white rice,
Speaker:white pasta,
Speaker:cookies, crackers,
Speaker:all that type of stuff.
Speaker:Anything made with white flour or white grains.
Speaker:These carbs have either no fiber in them naturally like in
Speaker:sugar and soda,
Speaker:or they have the fiber stripped out during manufacturing,
Speaker:like in the case of white flour and white bread,
Speaker:white rice,
Speaker:since these carbs have little to no fiber in them,
Speaker:they go into our stomach and they get digested very,
Speaker:very quickly.
Speaker:Actually, if you want to see an example of how quick
Speaker:take a piece of wonder bread and just put it in
Speaker:your mouth,
Speaker:don't do anything it'll disintegrate in under a minute.
Speaker:It's pretty crazy.
Speaker:So since these carbs go into our stomach and digest quickly,
Speaker:that means a lot of sugar is dumped into our bloodstream
Speaker:at once.
Speaker:And that causes our blood sugar to rise really high really
Speaker:quickly. And that's what we call a blood sugar spike.
Speaker:Now we talked about how our body likes to maintain our
Speaker:blood sugar in a certain healthy range.
Speaker:Well, when our blood sugar spikes,
Speaker:then our body has to take evasive action.
Speaker:It has to do something about it.
Speaker:And what our body does is it releases insulin insulin's job
Speaker:is to take all that extra sugar and get it out
Speaker:of our bloodstream in order to drive our blood sugar back
Speaker:down into that healthy range.
Speaker:And the way it does it is insulin removes that extra
Speaker:sugar and it dumps it into ourselves and it dumps it
Speaker:into our fat cells.
Speaker:And that is the number one reason why the world is
Speaker:getting obese because every meal that we have,
Speaker:that's filled with sugar and white carbohydrates,
Speaker:it causes a blood sugar spike and insulin comes and removes
Speaker:all that sugar and dumps it into our fat cells.
Speaker:And that creates more fat cells just talking about weight.
Speaker:That is the number one reason why people are gaining weight
Speaker:like crazy and they can't lose weight.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:that is such a fabulous explanation.
Speaker:Cause everyone knows,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:if you have a bunch of candy bars or you have
Speaker:your regular Coke or something,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:everyone knows that those aren't healthy for you because of all
Speaker:the sugar,
Speaker:but in terms of what actually happens in your body,
Speaker:that was such a good explanation.
Speaker:Thank you.
Speaker:Yeah, it makes So much sense.
Speaker:And I think just by listening to what actually happens in
Speaker:the mechanics behind it helps have an image,
Speaker:at least for me,
Speaker:of why you wouldn't want to do it in the first
Speaker:place, it tastes really great in the beginning.
Speaker:But then,
Speaker:you know,
Speaker:what happens when that satisfaction of tasting it is gone.
Speaker:We tend to think that,
Speaker:oh, we're just having one cookie.
Speaker:You know,
Speaker:won't do that much.
Speaker:But if the cookie is big and then it's causing that
Speaker:blood sugar spike.
Speaker:And so a good portion of that cookie is going to
Speaker:fat storage so that can either hide your dreams or it
Speaker:can empower you depending on what you're going to do with
Speaker:it. Okay.
Speaker:So, but a little bit of pushback here because I don't
Speaker:see anybody going through life without a bit of cake on
Speaker:their birthday or some of this low fiber carb foods from
Speaker:time to time,
Speaker:how do you manage that?
Speaker:I mean,
Speaker:how do you fit it into a lifestyle that you can
Speaker:do over time?
Speaker:Okay. Gift biz listeners,
