Similar to the old stories that we have heard of Christmas past and the idea of the holiday season, our values are often tested when we have so much on our "plate" to consume. Our values (the essence of who we are) may be tested to the maximum limit, and create frustrations when we are not being heard, not making the same progress unlike other times of the year, and the overall shift that happens. In this episode, we will explore foolproof ways in which you can stay on track with what we value the most and continuing to make progress with personal and professional goals, especially in the busiest moments of the year (and beyond)!

Intro/Outro By: Michael Dugan, Podcast Host: Voice4Chefs
Welcome to the podcast where relationships, confidence, and
2
00:00:03,671 --> 00:00:08,111
determination all converge into
an amazing, heartfelt experience.
3
00:00:08,551 --> 00:00:10,906
This is Speaking From The Heart.
4
00:00:11,786 --> 00:00:14,976
Joshua: Welcome back to episode
number 69 of Speaking From The Heart.
5
00:00:15,366 --> 00:00:19,016
Today, we're going to talk about the
spirit of our true values, especially
6
00:00:19,016 --> 00:00:24,425
as we get closer to some of the biggest
holidays of the entire year, probably even
7
00:00:24,426 --> 00:00:29,216
some of the holidays that you've already
celebrated, and I think that we always
8
00:00:29,355 --> 00:00:35,670
have this impression that we have to work
so hard during this whole entire year that
9
00:00:35,670 --> 00:00:40,801
now it's the time to kick up our feet on
the table, especially after we ate a big
10
00:00:40,801 --> 00:00:45,851
meal, and just let go of all the things
that we have worked on this past year,
11
00:00:46,910 --> 00:00:52,171
but I think having values, especially the
spirit of those true values that we want
12
00:00:52,171 --> 00:00:58,361
to work on the most, often requires us to
understand truly the importance of what we
13
00:00:58,361 --> 00:01:04,580
have really worked on more than anything
else in our entire lives, and we have to
14
00:01:04,590 --> 00:01:11,101
realize also that the essence of who we
are has now changed because of all that
15
00:01:11,101 --> 00:01:13,381
hard work that we've done this past year.
16
00:01:14,211 --> 00:01:19,491
Do we really want to go back and fold on
all the things that we have made progress
17
00:01:19,491 --> 00:01:25,880
on, because we definitely have those times
of the year in which we get to relax, we
18
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:31,321
get to enjoy, we get to even indulge in
some other aspects of our lives that we
19
00:01:31,321 --> 00:01:37,106
often put off, but even as we take that
time off that is desperately needed and
20
00:01:37,115 --> 00:01:42,996
well deserved, or even just put that time
aside where we work with other people to
21
00:01:43,005 --> 00:01:48,295
maybe help ourselves realize that progress
that we've made, we have to understand
22
00:01:48,295 --> 00:01:52,285
that there are ways in which we can
easily get off track with our personal and
23
00:01:52,285 --> 00:01:54,076
professional goals that we're working on.
24
00:01:54,805 --> 00:01:58,485
Today, I really want to talk about
what some of these busiest moments
25
00:01:58,485 --> 00:02:01,965
of the year can do to us, and how
we can prevent the ways in which
26
00:02:01,965 --> 00:02:04,335
those toxic moments can happen.
27
00:02:05,106 --> 00:02:08,770
I think that we have to start
first with what actually creates
28
00:02:08,781 --> 00:02:10,150
these moments in the first place?
29
00:02:11,451 --> 00:02:16,821
Now, I have been an advocate for months
now, with all of you, about the importance
30
00:02:16,931 --> 00:02:21,571
of not only working on yourself, but also
helping others, and there's been a number
31
00:02:21,571 --> 00:02:27,101
of episodes in which I've discussed this,
but now we put the true test into action,
32
00:02:27,620 --> 00:02:31,411
where we actually say to ourselves,
"What are we going to do to continue
33
00:02:31,411 --> 00:02:33,631
the momentum of what we're working on?"
34
00:02:33,641 --> 00:02:38,141
I mean, let's face it, with less than
a week away from Christmas, let alone
35
00:02:38,151 --> 00:02:43,091
less than two weeks away from the New
Year, we have to be ready for what
36
00:02:43,141 --> 00:02:47,840
is going to be on the other side of
that journey that we are embarking
37
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:53,600
on, and it means that we have to also
work on the foolproof ways in which
38
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,829
we can continue to stay on that track.
39
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:57,730
I get it.
40
00:02:58,150 --> 00:03:02,610
You want to take that long, desperate
break that you always wanted, but what
41
00:03:02,610 --> 00:03:04,800
are you going to do during that break?
42
00:03:05,340 --> 00:03:10,430
Are you going to read something in which
will empower you, maybe enrich you with
43
00:03:10,430 --> 00:03:15,880
new knowledge, skills, and abilities
that will test you and even help you in
44
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,040
the new year, especially as you embark
on those new goals that I hope you've
45
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,800
been working on' but what about exercise?
46
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:29,450
Are you actually working on yourself in
order to create not only that healthy
47
00:03:29,450 --> 00:03:35,570
mindset in the inside, but also on the
outside, so that you feel good, look good,
48
00:03:35,900 --> 00:03:42,610
and maybe even put on a new outfit that
maybe even makes you feel special inside?
49
00:03:43,570 --> 00:03:48,060
I think that you also need to consider the
fact that we have to also work on some of
50
00:03:48,070 --> 00:03:50,190
the things that we've been putting off.
51
00:03:51,075 --> 00:03:52,605
What about that chore list?
52
00:03:52,954 --> 00:03:57,425
Have you gotten all those things done that
you always wanted to do this past year?
53
00:03:58,345 --> 00:04:01,705
Have you even worked on some of the
things that you want to journal about?
54
00:04:02,225 --> 00:04:06,245
Maybe you haven't written down some of the
things that have happened to you recently,
55
00:04:06,485 --> 00:04:08,495
even the last three or six months.
56
00:04:09,305 --> 00:04:13,625
Is this the time now, especially in
the quietness, before the loudness
57
00:04:13,625 --> 00:04:17,894
happens, in which you can write
down and reflect on some of the
58
00:04:17,894 --> 00:04:19,060
things that you've been able to do?
59
00:04:20,745 --> 00:04:25,605
Now, in some parts of where you live,
maybe it is getting colder, maybe it's
60
00:04:25,605 --> 00:04:29,105
even getting warmer where you live,
and I know for some of my international
61
00:04:29,105 --> 00:04:33,555
audience, I'm very envious of you because
I wish that it was getting warmer as
62
00:04:33,555 --> 00:04:38,685
opposed to getting colder, especially
as we enter the winter equinox here in
63
00:04:38,685 --> 00:04:44,260
the United States, but I think that we
have to understand, too, that even with
64
00:04:44,290 --> 00:04:50,030
the weather changing and even the season
changing, what is it that you're doing
65
00:04:50,470 --> 00:04:52,760
to create that change for yourself?
66
00:04:54,930 --> 00:05:00,580
I often feel that this opportunity that we
have to reflect and encourage others often
67
00:05:00,580 --> 00:05:04,130
means that we have to work with others
to do this, but it doesn't necessarily
68
00:05:04,130 --> 00:05:06,030
mean that we have to do it all alone.
69
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,200
I think that if you are not doing the
right things in your life, this is
70
00:05:11,210 --> 00:05:15,320
the time to think about what are those
things that are in the wrong so you
71
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,430
can do them right once and for all.
72
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,610
It might mean even pulling out a sheet of
paper, just reflecting on what you have
73
00:05:23,610 --> 00:05:28,580
seen and observed in just a few days,
especially if you just started taking
74
00:05:28,580 --> 00:05:33,400
off some of that desperate time that
you needed, but it might be also asking
75
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:38,220
family and friends and acquaintances
what can I do better for the new year?
76
00:05:39,170 --> 00:05:42,950
Some of you might be receiving
performance evaluations at work in
77
00:05:42,950 --> 00:05:46,840
which your boss is telling you, "You
did good in this area, but I need you
78
00:05:46,840 --> 00:05:48,720
to pick it up in this other area."
79
00:05:49,650 --> 00:05:54,534
What can you do to ensure that you are
working all around in the terms of the
80
00:05:54,534 --> 00:05:59,025
ideas in which you want to create, not
just for who you are in the new year,
81
00:05:59,985 --> 00:06:04,745
but what you have on your plate now,
in order to accomplish what's ahead?
82
00:06:06,035 --> 00:06:10,075
Now, for the last six minutes, I've
probably talked in a lot of theoreticals,
83
00:06:10,395 --> 00:06:13,705
and probably there are some things
that have already developed into
84
00:06:13,705 --> 00:06:18,880
your mind, as to what you can do, and
what you can achieve, but I want to
85
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,760
challenge you on something even more
than just what you are looking at doing.
86
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,830
I actually want to look at what you
might be having frustrations about,
87
00:06:28,260 --> 00:06:32,409
and maybe you're not being heard about,
so that you can get the help that you
88
00:06:32,409 --> 00:06:38,175
desperately need to be able to create that
progress, unlike other times of the year.
89
00:06:40,125 --> 00:06:41,895
This is not the time to be lazy.
90
00:06:42,615 --> 00:06:45,855
This is not the time in which
you sit back and think that you
91
00:06:46,085 --> 00:06:47,985
can do nothing to help yourself.
92
00:06:49,020 --> 00:06:53,830
If anything, that creates atrophy, not
only physically in your muscles, in
93
00:06:53,830 --> 00:06:57,820
which you're feeling weak, and you're
feeling that everything is wasting away,
94
00:06:58,409 --> 00:07:02,660
but you also want to work on the things
in which you might be doing on the day
95
00:07:02,660 --> 00:07:05,250
to day in order to create new routines.
96
00:07:06,081 --> 00:07:09,480
There have been many studies that have
been done by scientists, let alone
97
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:15,010
other college students for that matter,
that habits can form very easily,
98
00:07:15,130 --> 00:07:20,170
especially if there are vices in our
life that we often shouldn't be doing,
99
00:07:20,250 --> 00:07:22,990
or trying to do, in the first place.
100
00:07:23,750 --> 00:07:28,960
Whether it's drugs, alcohol, sex,
whatever those vices are that you might
101
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:35,540
be indulging in; cigarette smoking, maybe
even playing cards or gambling, maybe
102
00:07:35,540 --> 00:07:41,360
even doing derogatory post on Facebook,
Instagram, X, whatever your case might be.
103
00:07:42,450 --> 00:07:47,260
Is it really helping you and your
cause, to just swoon around, thinking
104
00:07:47,260 --> 00:07:51,320
that you are going to be doing
nothing for the next several weeks?
105
00:07:52,970 --> 00:07:56,150
Maybe you do have that job and you
don't have that luxury to take time
106
00:07:56,150 --> 00:08:00,270
off, and I understand that too, but
you can still participate in this
107
00:08:00,270 --> 00:08:04,900
exercise in which you're helping
yourself become not only the best
108
00:08:04,930 --> 00:08:10,180
version of who you are, but what you
can be for the new year that lies ahead.
109
00:08:12,740 --> 00:08:16,960
What you can do right now to help
yourself create even those opportunities
110
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,340
is thinking about what your values are.
111
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,540
That's right: the actual values
that you hold dear to yourself.
112
00:08:25,660 --> 00:08:27,530
Maybe you're not an honest person.
113
00:08:28,230 --> 00:08:31,240
Maybe you aren't reflecting on
the things that you're saying
114
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:32,750
before you actually say them.
115
00:08:33,409 --> 00:08:37,770
Maybe you are challenging some of the
beliefs that you've had held this past
116
00:08:37,770 --> 00:08:43,049
year about a significant other, about
what you could do professionally, maybe
117
00:08:43,049 --> 00:08:47,730
even the public speaking skills that
you have might not be top notch yet and
118
00:08:47,730 --> 00:08:49,500
you want to take them to the next level.
119
00:08:50,180 --> 00:08:54,425
Well, I know a coach, hint, hint,
that might be able to help you out
120
00:08:54,435 --> 00:08:58,185
with many of those things, especially
as we start the new year, and I'd be
121
00:08:58,185 --> 00:09:02,785
more than willing to work with you
to set up a plan as we enter that new
122
00:09:02,785 --> 00:09:05,525
year, but it goes beyond just that.
123
00:09:06,745 --> 00:09:11,575
In my practice, I often talk about the
importance of setting goals; SMART goals,
124
00:09:11,585 --> 00:09:16,670
for that matter, because goals that are
SMART in nature, whether they're specific
125
00:09:16,670 --> 00:09:21,030
and measurable, whether they have some
sort of time requirement behind them,
126
00:09:21,300 --> 00:09:26,220
or they just are relevant to the overall
things that you want to accomplish in
127
00:09:26,220 --> 00:09:30,630
your life, there's something in the
middle of that acronym that we often
128
00:09:30,630 --> 00:09:33,960
forget to do, and that is to take action.
129
00:09:34,950 --> 00:09:40,050
When you write down what your
values are, are they action based?
130
00:09:40,950 --> 00:09:43,170
Are they just complacent
in what you're saying?
131
00:09:43,630 --> 00:09:44,910
"I will be honest."
132
00:09:45,300 --> 00:09:46,590
"I will be loving."
133
00:09:46,950 --> 00:09:51,600
"I will be caring.", or do they
have more meat to it than maybe
134
00:09:51,610 --> 00:09:53,940
just those baseline surfaces?
135
00:09:55,130 --> 00:09:59,040
I often feel that when we are generic
in the ways in which we want to
136
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:04,290
communicate and even share our concerns
both personally and professionally, I
137
00:10:04,290 --> 00:10:07,670
think that we often lose sight of the
true importance of what we're trying to
138
00:10:07,670 --> 00:10:14,300
create, which is actually the ability
to create not just actionable goals,
139
00:10:14,790 --> 00:10:20,050
but things in which we hold ourselves
accountable for what lies ahead.
140
00:10:20,930 --> 00:10:23,690
That means we actually are taking
responsibility for something
141
00:10:23,690 --> 00:10:25,130
that might actually change.
142
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:26,450
Oh my gosh.
143
00:10:26,970 --> 00:10:29,190
We wouldn't want that to happen, would we?
144
00:10:30,460 --> 00:10:35,440
I think that's what really this is all
about, is we have to explore not just
145
00:10:35,470 --> 00:10:39,910
the things in which we can take action
on, but understand that the growth that
146
00:10:39,910 --> 00:10:46,130
we can receive from those goals can
honestly change us forever, especially
147
00:10:46,180 --> 00:10:48,280
if we're willing to dare greatly.
148
00:10:50,090 --> 00:10:53,030
Does that title of a book
sound familiar to you?
149
00:10:54,110 --> 00:10:57,810
Brene Brown, in which one of the
first books I've ever read about
150
00:10:57,810 --> 00:11:02,291
vulnerability, called Daring Greatly,
talks about the importance of just
151
00:11:02,301 --> 00:11:06,281
stepping outside of that comfort
zone in order for us to see that true
152
00:11:06,281 --> 00:11:08,621
value that lies within ourselves.
153
00:11:08,911 --> 00:11:12,821
It's an excellent book and I encourage
anyone to read it, even if it's
154
00:11:12,821 --> 00:11:16,530
been written several years ago, but
even other authors that have gone
155
00:11:16,581 --> 00:11:20,601
since then have talked about the
importance of Brene Brown's work
156
00:11:20,621 --> 00:11:22,071
in a variety of different ways.
157
00:11:23,141 --> 00:11:27,041
People that have been wanting to work
on not just addressing the shame that
158
00:11:27,051 --> 00:11:32,321
they have in their lives oftentimes
see dramatic results improve in
159
00:11:32,321 --> 00:11:34,871
their own ability to create value.
160
00:11:35,730 --> 00:11:40,790
Value in the sense of not just the
monetary or even the physical possessions
161
00:11:40,801 --> 00:11:45,601
that we have that we often think about
as selfish human beings, but being able
162
00:11:45,601 --> 00:11:50,301
to understand that that creates some of
the opportunity that lies deep inside of
163
00:11:50,301 --> 00:11:56,340
ourselves to pursue new goals and create
the best opportunities that lie ahead
164
00:11:56,581 --> 00:11:59,540
for others to join amongst the ranks.
165
00:12:00,341 --> 00:12:04,800
That might even mean finding a new
friendship zone; people that will help
166
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,761
you within that circle of trust that
you're able to create because we all
167
00:12:08,761 --> 00:12:14,286
work as a team, especially even in the
professional realm, to achieve goals, and
168
00:12:14,286 --> 00:12:19,586
even success strategies, so that we were
able to accomplish projects and other
169
00:12:19,586 --> 00:12:24,526
sort of initiatives, especially as we are
planning and implementing them for the new
170
00:12:24,536 --> 00:12:31,216
year, but being the individual that you
are, you definitely have some say in that.
171
00:12:32,395 --> 00:12:36,671
If you haven't thought about the fact
that you have so much on your plate, and
172
00:12:36,671 --> 00:12:41,181
that you have the opportunity to change
what's on that plate, maybe that might
173
00:12:41,181 --> 00:12:43,531
be your first step in this whole process.
174
00:12:44,501 --> 00:12:49,180
Analyze everything that you've been
doing: does it really add any value
175
00:12:49,180 --> 00:12:52,701
to what you're actually creating
as the best version of who you are,
176
00:12:52,701 --> 00:12:57,396
and I will tell you this past year,
I've been doing quite a lot of that.
177
00:12:57,986 --> 00:13:01,366
Whether that has been eliminating
Toastmaster Clubs that I've been involved
178
00:13:01,366 --> 00:13:06,436
in for many years, although I'm still a
great supporter of Toastmasters overall;
179
00:13:07,206 --> 00:13:10,846
maybe that's changing some of the non
profit boards you sit on, which I have
180
00:13:10,846 --> 00:13:15,995
definitely done so, and continue to work
on even implementing new opportunities
181
00:13:15,995 --> 00:13:20,395
for myself to engage with partnerships
with Your Speaking Voice LLC in the
182
00:13:20,395 --> 00:13:26,585
new year, but even more importantly
and beyond all that, it's realizing
183
00:13:26,850 --> 00:13:32,490
that when you love yourself first,
and you create that love for yourself,
184
00:13:33,190 --> 00:13:38,380
the vulnerable aspects of it radically
change who you are, and really what
185
00:13:38,380 --> 00:13:41,240
the spirit of your true values become.
186
00:13:43,820 --> 00:13:44,750
Did you hear that?
187
00:13:45,825 --> 00:13:48,455
It's vulnerability that creates love.
188
00:13:49,915 --> 00:13:53,305
I did a bonus episode a few months
ago in which I talked about that
189
00:13:53,305 --> 00:13:58,725
concept when I had, yet again, another
suicidal thought come through my mind.
190
00:13:59,715 --> 00:14:02,895
I knew that was a moment of
weakness, and the love that
191
00:14:02,895 --> 00:14:05,005
came from that was incredible.
192
00:14:05,265 --> 00:14:09,315
Many of you had supported the show,
and throughout that time, and that
193
00:14:09,315 --> 00:14:14,215
was one of the best months, not only
for the podcast, but also for myself
194
00:14:14,215 --> 00:14:18,955
to know that there are support from
all over the world going through what
195
00:14:18,955 --> 00:14:24,565
I had been going through, because I
realized that if we're even going to
196
00:14:24,575 --> 00:14:29,875
have a chance to change the story, if
we're ever going to ask yourselves what
197
00:14:29,875 --> 00:14:36,305
we can do to realize deep within our
hearts, we have to test ourselves to
198
00:14:36,305 --> 00:14:41,405
change the story, to change the values
that we've often been operating from.
199
00:14:43,945 --> 00:14:47,495
I don't know if you really are going
to change your values, and maybe
200
00:14:47,495 --> 00:14:50,545
even after listening to this, you're
still not convinced that maybe
201
00:14:50,545 --> 00:14:52,215
those values need to be changed.
202
00:14:52,955 --> 00:14:55,605
This is where an outside
perspective really does help.
203
00:14:56,125 --> 00:14:59,715
It helps you to understand maybe there
are some ways in which you can improve.
204
00:15:00,485 --> 00:15:04,135
I will tell you that even if you're
listening to this and you are saying,
205
00:15:04,485 --> 00:15:07,815
"Josh, there's nothing that I'm
going to do to change this, because
206
00:15:07,815 --> 00:15:13,955
I'm okay the way I'm at", examine
anyway what you can do to change,
207
00:15:14,935 --> 00:15:18,605
because complacency is not change.
208
00:15:19,135 --> 00:15:24,780
Complacency in itself means that you're
not being try and true to the things in
209
00:15:24,780 --> 00:15:29,060
which you could test yourself to become
even better than who you are today.
210
00:15:30,270 --> 00:15:33,810
If you don't try to make progress,
and if you don't try to shift that
211
00:15:33,810 --> 00:15:38,260
script of what's been happening,
what's going to make you feel a
212
00:15:38,260 --> 00:15:40,410
little bit better about the new year?
213
00:15:41,645 --> 00:15:47,125
Instead of watching a whole binge series
of Netflix, or Apple TV, or Disney
214
00:15:47,135 --> 00:15:52,205
Plus, maybe you should binge on not
only the truth of what your values are
215
00:15:52,205 --> 00:15:58,720
right now, but maybe you can consume
better, healthier things, such as fruits,
216
00:15:58,730 --> 00:16:03,770
vegetables, and even other foods for
that matter, that help you with your
217
00:16:03,780 --> 00:16:09,590
vitamin intake, but more importantly,
maybe you can digest new books, new
218
00:16:09,590 --> 00:16:15,120
ideas, maybe even new podcasts for that
matter, that will change your mindset.
219
00:16:16,525 --> 00:16:19,945
I have somebody that will be coming up
on the show in the new year, that I've
220
00:16:19,945 --> 00:16:24,655
been listening to a lot of her different
episodes, and Kaneshi Hart, who will
221
00:16:24,655 --> 00:16:29,285
be a future guest on this show, really
inspires me because of her mindset.
222
00:16:30,075 --> 00:16:34,985
She wants to be a six figure coach,
and she wants to challenge not only the
223
00:16:34,995 --> 00:16:41,805
status quo of what those people are going
through, to become great, but she's also
224
00:16:41,815 --> 00:16:48,115
learning that mark along the way, so
I ask you: do you want to be that six
225
00:16:48,115 --> 00:16:53,945
figure coach, maybe investor, maybe that
entrepreneur because you've been putting
226
00:16:53,945 --> 00:16:59,585
it off for the longest time, or maybe
you're just so desperate for change, maybe
227
00:16:59,585 --> 00:17:03,525
you want to create those opportunities
to make progress in those personal and
228
00:17:03,525 --> 00:17:09,444
professional goals that you're now waking
up to smell not just the coffee, but
229
00:17:09,444 --> 00:17:11,525
the hot chocolate that's in your cup.
230
00:17:12,435 --> 00:17:16,435
We have to fill our cups with something
more than just the things that we've been
231
00:17:16,444 --> 00:17:22,425
doing for the longest time, and I don't
know about you, but when I get tired
232
00:17:22,425 --> 00:17:26,954
of hitting my maximum, and I'm getting
frustrated consistently over and over
233
00:17:26,954 --> 00:17:32,155
again, and I feel like I'm not making
progress to that overall goal that I want
234
00:17:32,155 --> 00:17:39,220
to achieve, it might be time to change
what my values are, because the spirit
235
00:17:39,230 --> 00:17:42,160
that lies in me is never going to rest.
236
00:17:42,890 --> 00:17:47,150
It's going to allow me to create not
just those best versions, those best
237
00:17:47,150 --> 00:17:52,260
relationships, that best confidence,
that best determination, but it's going
238
00:17:52,260 --> 00:17:57,300
to help me understand that my voice,
in this ever changing world, can be
239
00:17:57,300 --> 00:18:02,600
impacted by just the things that we
fill, not just in our cups, but also
240
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:08,690
in our minds, so if you are ready for
that change, now is the time to do it.
241
00:18:09,475 --> 00:18:10,765
What's holding you back?
242
00:18:11,685 --> 00:18:17,225
Are you afraid of what it might look
like to be on the other side, or maybe
243
00:18:17,235 --> 00:18:23,085
you're just itching to get started, and
if you are, I can't wait to hear from
244
00:18:23,085 --> 00:18:29,785
you, not only just very soon, but I'll
be excited for some of the new ideas
245
00:18:30,110 --> 00:18:35,670
that you'll bring to the table, and
please, leave the cookies off the table
246
00:18:36,250 --> 00:18:41,620
because those are the things that fatten
us up, unless you got enough to share
247
00:18:41,710 --> 00:18:44,500
for all of us here on this podcast.
248
