Hey, welcome to fit to be real and a little extra.
That was good.
I felt that.
Oh, good, wonderful.
Today, we want you to feel it too.
And we're talking about self care
and how self care is not selfish.
I'm Victoria.
Hey guys, I'm Carly.
Dry it again.
Hey guys, I'm Carly.
Give us a third time's a charm.
Hey guys, I'm Carly.
I was the same as the first,
but that's actually the most accurate.
So self care is one of the hardest things, I think,
in my personal opinion.
It's one of the hardest things to prioritize for yourself.
It's very easy or at least more doable to do for other people.
But when it comes to yourself, I don't prioritize it.
No, it's not in my daily routine.
I try and make it into my daily routine,
but it's definitely a struggle.
Well, you also have three kids and two dogs
and a giant husband child.
And I have two geckos too.
But I don't take care of them.
Andrew takes care of them.
But either way, kids are no kids.
Self care is not something that you do daily.
If it's not written down, planned out,
we just don't go to that first.
Well, and it's not even just self care
and like massages or the nails, hair,
the stuff that you would feel like luxury type of self care.
It's also making dentist appointments
and making doctor appointments.
Like I struggle with making, it's on my list.
I'm a list maker.
I make lists, I write them, I love crossing them out.
Do you do when, well, you don't write lists, do you?
No, I have an aversion to lists
because of how we grew up.
And I think, yes.
So, yes, our mom would, we would wake up
and come downstairs and be dressed and ready for school,
but there would be a list with our name on it
at our stool where we would sit on our island
or on the dinner table.
And that's what we had to accomplish that day or...
And you would look at the list and you'd be like,
uh, okay, this is my list for the day.
Or if there was ever like a family party coming up,
man, that list got so long of all the cleaning you had to do
or like the straightening up or the dusting.
And we, so I don't make, I don't, sorry,
I don't make lists, my Delco is showing.
I don't make lists because I think I didn't love that
getting up and having a list every day.
So I think that I can remember everything and then it...
Oh, but you cannot.
I know.
Oh, oh, but you cannot.
I know, I always forget something important.
And I know I need to write it down.
I know I do.
Something important or everything.
Or like a child.
I've forgotten the child of more than a few times.
So I don't write lists for that reason,
but I know I need to.
And I'm the opposite.
I love writing lists because I love the accomplished feeling
of crossing something off.
If there's something that I do that's not on the list,
I will write it and or type it so I can erase it
or cross it out.
I know people like that.
Yeah.
And it just feels so good to me.
But I tend to not forget anything
because I look at my list and I try to knock off
the things that I know I want to get done
or that have a timeline and that I have to do
work-wise or something like that.
And I think what people misunderstand for self-care
is what you just said.
They think it's like a total spa day and it's not.
It could be just blow drying your hair that day
and feeling really good about it.
Like that to me.
I'm like, oh my gosh, I did my hair today.
I took the time to do it and I enjoyed that.
And I think people don't take the time for self-care
because they always think it's expensive
or it takes time and I don't have the time
to dedicate to myself.
And it's the little things
that I think are the most important.
So I found a really good list online
from goodhousekeeping.com.
And I picked this specific list
because it was small self-care habits
that you can incorporate in your house
with no money really attached to it.
Sweet.
And there's 50 of them.
So the list is 50.
We're not gonna rattle off 50.
I will put the link in the show notes
for you to be able to look at the full list on your own.
But I did mark some of the ones that I,
that kind of called out to me.
Are these ones that you do or ones that you want to do?
Ones that I just think are really doable and like.
And some of them I think I do do.
You just said do do.
Oh my God.
We're in our 30s.
I mean, I'm closer to 40.
It's always gonna be funny.
But there really are some that I do do.
So I have about like 12 of them
that we're just gonna rattle off and talk about briefly.
But here we go.
So one is zoning out.
And I was like, what is zone?
Like how is that self care?
Carly's raising the roof.
I'm raising the roof.
For all of the, those of you that cannot see her,
she is quite literally raising the roof with her hands.
The Gen Z's can cringe right now
because I am legitimately raising the roof with my hands.
Drink.
So zoning out is basically like binging Netflix.
Watching a show that you want to watch,
maybe not the whole season,
but putting on like you have 30 minutes in your day
and you're like, oh, maybe I'll just put that episode on
real quick while I'm sitting in,
quite, you're supposed to just zone out.
So not cleaning the house, not doing other things.
Get off your phone.
Getting off the phone.
I had a conversation with clients this past week
and they told me,
and we talked about how watching a movie,
which is like an hour and a half, two hours depending, right?
Is kind of hard to pay attention to.
And a lot of the reason of that is because
you're not just watching a movie,
you're scrolling through your phone at the same time.
So you're trying to pay attention to that.
You're trying to pay attention to the phone.
So you're really not paying attention to anything.
Right.
And that's the opposite of this.
So this is zoning out with nothing,
but zoning out to something.
Right, exactly.
Yeah, it's sort of like zoning out.
Oh my gosh, that makes so much more sense.
Thank you so much.
I was looking for the word brainless.
Second one that I resonated was call a friend.
Call a friend.
And it really just means be connected.
So if you have an aversion like Carly does to
calling people and using the telephone as a telephone,
then text a friend.
But sometimes you have to write that into your list of like,
hey, I want to talk to this person.
I haven't talked to them in a long time.
And being connected to your friends
that are not in your daily household or bubble
is, it really is self care.
Like having that social outlet.
I think so.
It's very important.
Yeah, definitely text me.
Never call me.
I really have a fear of the phone.
It's a real fear.
I can't say my name on this.
I can't say my name on the phone.
I was telling somebody the other day,
I called to make a dermatology appointment,
which is something I've been putting off for years.
And I like had to write down what I was gonna say.
Cause I'm not used to making appointments.
I don't like to do it.
So I, you know, I called and they said, hello, who's this?
And I was like, it's Carly.
My name's Carly, but my legal name is Carmela.
And you might have me under Mayo Dykeman.
Like I couldn't, I couldn't get it out.
I don't like talking on the phone.
I'm shocked actually.
I didn't know it was that bad.
I guess that's not true.
I did know that was that bad
because I tell people all the time,
if I am dying and I have to phone a friend,
Carly is not on the list.
She will not answer the phone.
And you, what do you say?
Three phone calls.
Three phone calls and they'll know it's serious.
That is awesome.
Okay.
Well, third one.
Clear clutter.
Ooh.
Yeah.
Very simple to me.
But it says like 20 minutes.
The article says about 20 minutes
of just clearing a space that has clutter.
So maybe you're, I'm thinking of mom's house.
So the kitchen island is kind of like an office
at the same time.
So all those papers and straightening up.
Yeah, mine too.
My kitchen island, it's got crayons and papers
and school papers and homework and just junk on it.
I just need to Marie Kondo it
and I will feel so much better after.
Here's, okay.
So I've been wanting to do this
because I know it's really important
and I know that it has a lot of benefits
but it's really hard to do.
And it's ending your shower with cold water.
Nope.
For 30 seconds.
Nope.
It's only 30 seconds, but it's like a cold plunge.
Nope.
And so it does a lot of things.
It releases endorphins.
It has the antidepressant effect, which is really cool.
And then it kind of wakes up and rewires your nervous system
and your vagus nerve, which is your fight or flight.
Harley's laughing at me.
Why are you laughing?
Did you say your vagus nerve?
Like your party nerve?
Yep.
Yep, Nevada.
It's actually called the what happens in your vagus nerve
stays in your vagus nerve.
Oh my God, I didn't know I had a vagus nerve.
It's not spelled V E G A S.
Oh my God, I can't wait to wake up that part of me.
Yeah, go into Vegas every day after a shower.
Oh my God.
It increases the activity in areas that control your mood
with the nervous system.
And this vagus nerve, I'm gonna, I can't.
It has not party mode.
That's like really dramatic in Frat Boy of you.
Is it extra?
It's a really extra.
It's Frat Boy of me.
You could have done Serarty Girl of me.
But you're not a Serarty Girl.
You're way more of a Frat Boy.
I'm 100% a Frat Boy.
But it has that party mode effect
and it just really boosts your energy and your emotions
and everything that goes with the nervous system.
Look it up.
Look up the nervous system.
Well, I think Victoria just invited you to Vegas
in her shower for 30 seconds daily.
Welcome.
Invites coming shortly.
Okay, we're gonna move on from that.
And we're gonna go to a lunchtime stroll.
And it does the same type of thing.
It boosts your energy, it boosts your concentration.
And it keeps you, if you have now,
if you have a nine to five sit down job all day long,
this is a big help to get your body moving
and to keep active without kind of stressing yourself
during the workday.
And it's free.
It's free.
And it's getting outside in nature
and it's even in the cold.
I walk outside in the cold every day.
As long as you're bundled, you're good.
But doing that little type of thing.
Now I don't know how long people's lunch breaks are.
Jen Z's.
This might be also known as a hot girl walk.
Take your hot girl walk at lunch.
Listen to this podcast and get outside.
That's the greatest term.
I when I heard that hot girl walk,
I know.
You should see what I look like when I walk.
It's not hot girl at all.
It's almost like, hey, I'm gonna cross the street,
get away from that person girl walk.
Well, then I wrote this one down
because we already suggested this in a real tip.
I think it was episode one.
And it's called make a yay list.
And at the end of the day,
you write down what made you go yay in your day.
And really the premise is that you focus on the positive
in the chaos of being a human being in the world.
So you don't focus on the negative is what it is.
Can you say yay again?
Yay!
Just like a little bit higher.
Okay, great.
That was for all the dogs.
Yay, there we go.
But it can be a daily self care.
I think that what people struggle with
and I know that I struggle with
and I know you struggle with,
you do not need to have kids to feel this
is the guilt that comes along with self care.
I feel that I shouldn't go for that 20 minute walk
because I'm like, oh, but then Dean sitting home
watching TV or something like that
where I should be with him or,
but I've also just recently started coming to terms with
if I don't feel good,
they won't feel good because I take it out on them.
I project my bad feelings of not being capable
to be happy or feel in the moment
because I'm already thinking about the next thing on them.
And that's not fair.
So that 20 minute walk is beneficial to both of you.
I'm so proud of you.
I mean, this is recent.
So it was my proudness.
It's recent, it's brand new.
I know Victoria knows this.
I know a lot of people have known, I post about this.
I wake up very early in the morning, very early.
And I just started doing this because I realized to me
that is my time.
Yes.
Five o'clock in the morning, unfortunately,
unfortunately I actually like it.
Getting up and sitting with my coffee at five a.m.
before everybody gets up is my time and I really like it.
I do understand that actually.
Silently in the dark, you know.
In the dark.
I don't mean in the dark.
No, I will, are we in Vegas?
You know what I mean.
So this, okay.
Well, that threw me off because that's really exciting to me.
But now we're gonna switch gears to something
that Carly's gonna go, oh, and scoff at.
Oh God.
Breathing like a Yogi.
Geez.
All right, let's get into it.
First of all, if you have this reaction like Carly,
I want you to really bump up the volume here
on this podcast.
Breathing is life.
And we take it for granted and I can tell you that
because I lost it.
You lost your breath?
Sure did.
Oh yeah.
Sure did.
I collapsed along.
That's right.
Without breathing, it changes.
Now, of course you have to breathe to live.
So when I say without breathing,
I mean without being able to control your breath
and focus on breathing,
you can bring down your stress and your mood
and your fight or flight.
I'm not gonna say Vegas nerve again.
But you can shift that emotional alert and awareness
in a stressful moment with just slowing your breath down.
It's not something Yogi's, yes, it's called the Yogi breath,
but it's science.
It is science.
No, I believe you.
I have a hard time doing it
because I'm always mentally thinking of the next thing.
So I have a hard time being in the moment.
So breathing the way you breathe
is like I have to actually think about it.
Yes, you do.
I know, but I can't think ahead of it.
And that's what I'm used to doing.
Do you know what I mean?
You have to slow down to do it.
It's hard work.
I know, slowing down is hard.
Well, you just did an episode
on how diet and nutrition is hard work,
but if you want it, you do it.
If you wanna relax and calm and really be in the moment
and be present with your kids after your wonderful coffee
in the morning, you have to do the work
for really rewiring your cycle of breath.
When you need it.
Thanks for circling back there.
You're welcome.
I really like that full circle.
I'm gonna take a moment to breathe right now.
I think I need that for a little piece.
Okay, next one.
Take it outside, which kind of goes with the lunch break
thing if you don't have a treadmill in your house,
but taking outside, taking a moment to just go outside
and be in nature, whether it's cold,
whether it's in the summer, whatever the weather,
depending if it's a tornado or hurricane outside,
don't do that.
But taking it outside can boost your mood.
They say, if you take your shoes off
and you put your feet in the grass,
it can ground you and that connection to the earth
and being outside is calming.
Put your eyes away, Carly.
Put them away.
I'll try it.
No, we all believe you, actually, we do.
But that's a very important one
and everyone should not listen to Carly
and you should listen to me.
Is shopping on the list?
Plan a play date.
Number nine, plan a play date.
But this is an adult play date with your friends.
Go to brunch, plan a night out.
Vegas shower.
With your friends.
With your Vegas nerve.
And if you can't get out and do game night or whatever,
FaceTime, do you remember in quarantine
when we would do, it's called house party?
Yes.
When we had the best time, everybody was doing
some sort of FaceTime I haven't seen.
I can't go see physically the people that I want to see.
So I'm going to get on the phone
and we're going to play games and laugh.
And it just made it do a cry.
Positive relationships with the people
that aren't the little feet running around in your house
or your husband or spouse or partner
and having relationships with another circle,
another bubble, it's very important as a human being.
Yeah.
This one is a serious one and also not a serious one.
So it's not number 10.
It's number nine and three quarters.
All right, Harry Potter.
Discover a new podcast.
Oh my God.
That's what's on the list.
Discover a new podcast.
And here's why.
Because people's mood shift with the tone of voice
that you hear.
And it's so true.
If you hear someone yelling at you
or someone being sarcastic in a derogatory way,
like you feel that, whether you're an empath or not,
you feel that and then your mood shifts.
So hearing a podcast, i.e.
Fitzpereal, you will also get boosted and elevated
and it's something new and it's something new and exciting.
And it was on the list, so we're sharing it.
Okay, this one I do, I do this a lot.
And I'm whispering to not tell people,
this is number 10, unfollow people that bring you down.
So I do this on social media.
I only have Facebook and Instagram.
You have Facebook?
Yes.
Oh, are we friends?
Oh shoot, am I learning something new?
I unfriend people on Facebook on their birthdays.
And here's why.
What a bee.
Here's why.
If I'm, and then this is also a broad,
this is a broad thing here.
It's not 100% for what I'm about to say,
but if I'm not gonna say happy birthday to you,
why are we friends on Facebook?
Yes, I agree with that.
And nobody gets notified.
It's not like a dun dun dun, guess what?
Happy birthday.
She unfriended you.
You lost a friend today.
I say this is broad because there are people
that I'm not gonna necessarily say happy birthday to,
but I would really like to know what they're up to
and keep them in my line of vision.
So that's why that doesn't really line up.
But if you watch a lot of puppy videos,
that's what's gonna come up.
If you watch a lot of kids dancing
or like fun dance videos, I did that for a long time.
That's what popped up for me.
Now it's motivational stuff and yoga stuff
and stuff like that, but that's what I wanna see.
So you're cleaning the clutter of your technology.
Yeah, wow.
I put two together, so we knocked two down.
Here's one that Carly is again going to scoff
and roll her eyes and have lots of things to say.
I'm not ready before I even said it, but go ahead.
That's why we're not friends on Facebook.
Ha ha ha ha.
Celebrate silence.
Taking time to be silent and to be quiet.
And it affects your sleep in a good way to do this.
It also affects your sleep in a bad way
to have constant noise.
It can lower your blood pressure.
It can lower your heart rate.
All these good things and it can really have you focus.
I drive in silence.
I used to drive with blessing music.
I drive in silence and I work out on my own in silence
because noise is, you look ready to talk.
You should tell me what you're thinking.
I'm trying to be silent.
And it's clearly shown on my face
that it is not normal for me.
Carly's afraid of silence.
She thinks something is wrong if the moment is silent.
Yeah, you'll see that in class when she teaches.
So that's why she's constantly talking.
And in everyday life, I don't, except for 5 a.m. with coffee.
I would assume.
Be silent.
I'm poor Andrew.
He comes down the steps and I'm like, not now.
Not now.
You can sit here with me, but don't talk yet.
I agree.
In the morning, I'm not a talker.
Thankfully, Andrew doesn't open his mouth ever.
So he's okay with that.
There's no friction there.
Those of you that know my husband knows,
he's a silent warrior.
Ninja.
Yeah, ninja's better.
Warrior, because he's married to me, ninja,
because that's how he survived.
Is he smooth?
I'm not a fan of silence,
but I bet if I tried it, it would be decent.
Hmm.
Kind of like everything that you've resisted
on this list that I brought up.
I usually come around.
Here's one.
Last one.
Number 12.
Number 12, it's my favorite number.
Eat breakfast first before you pick up your phone.
Oh, which really is kind of like the whole morning routine
before you pick up your phone,
because you have to get dressed,
you have to brush your teeth,
you gotta do all the things.
But before you start scrolling
and get the news of the outside world
in the start of your day,
you really start the news of your people in the house
or if you live alone,
it's your own thoughts and making a schedule
or maybe being silent or whatever it is.
You don't have to be talking to the people in your house,
but keep the outside world outside until the last minute.
Yeah, that is a good one.
And it's very good one.
Yeah, these are all free ways.
I think people get stuck on the idea
that self-care is in a luxury and expensive.
I think we should notice that she didn't comment on that one
because she's not gonna do that.
Nope.
But not every self-care tactic works for everybody.
This is true.
I have come around to two of the ones that you said today
and that's a lot for me.
Just mentally, she's not tried them in action.
I'll take that, I'll take that.
But yeah, I think these are easy,
daily, small, attainable self-care things
that you can do to enhance the joy in your life.
I agree, I think you would agree with this.
I heard this phrase on the Mel Robbins podcast.
I think she's brilliant.
And I have suggested to her podcast
to many, many, many, many people in my life.
She has admitted, and part of her journey of evolving
and awareness and trying to change,
that she is addicted to chaos, or was addicted to chaos.
And I think that's exactly how we are.
Yeah, I think so.
I have tried the self-care revelation
only in the past couple of years
of really enforcing what I wanna do,
what I don't wanna do, and saying no to things,
which is really hard.
And I think a lot of people can relate to that.
The hardest to say no.
And I think it's because chaos feels better than calm.
Yes, 100%, you know what I mean?
It's uncomfortable to be calm.
And the discomfort of chaos is way more easier.
The mere factor that we get up on stage
jump up and down like crazy people,
and I'm in my happy place.
That's where I'm jumping up and down,
I'm screaming, I'm yelling, get me on a yoga mat,
and have me think about nothing,
or just be in my mind, and I'm at a loss.
Be present in the moment.
I know, it's so hard.
I love the chaos.
And I don't know if I love it,
or I'm just used to it, I think it's,
I know how to deal with it, conditioned.
Yeah, do you wanna know what I found that I really liked?
Yeah, I think we do.
So, you know how I found this saying,
I was reading, researching about self-care,
I know, I'm doing a really good job.
I was reading.
Oh my God.
And the thing that I kept going back to
was the saying that on an airplane,
they say pull down your oxygen mask,
put it on yourself first before you put it on your child.
Now that sounds selfish, doesn't it?
Put it on your kid first.
They need the oxygen first.
No, if you can't help yourself first,
you can't help anybody else.
I think that goes hand in hand.
I heard on the, I'm gonna drop another podcast name.
I heard on the Jay Shetty podcast, it's called On Purpose.
He's another person I think is absolutely brilliant
in evolving and growing.
It's not giving someone your time.
Yeah.
Because what people want, what your kids want,
is not your time, they want your presence.
And they want you to be in the moment,
and you want you to be there.
But it's really hard to do that
if you are stressed out, burnout.
Which is, I think I've lived in burnout
up until the past couple of years.
And even now it's still hard.
Well, we're hustlers.
And I mean that in the best way.
We were born to hustle and that's how we grew up.
We, I'm a hustler baby.
Every day I'm hustling.
I'm starting out there for a pimp.
Oh.
I guess that didn't fall in line with hustler,
but they all wear fur coats.
I.
We are always thinking of the next thing,
the next trend, the next business move,
the next everything.
Our mom did that too because she owned her own business.
Constantly thinking of the next thing.
It is so hard to be in the moment.
It's just hard and there's no going around it.
Absolutely.
That self care doesn't have to be quote unquote
a luxury type of thing.
It's like going to therapy, that self care.
And going to a dance fitness class
or a circuit class or your workout
that makes you feel better.
That self care.
Taking the time to be silent.
That self care.
Like all of these little ways,
that's not luxurious.
They're necessary.
I absolutely think so.
And I think people more these days
are looking into their mental health,
which they weren't doing.
Maybe when we were growing up
and finding that self care is a direct correlation
with your mental health.
And it goes hand in hand with working out,
with taking care of yourself.
It all plays a part in the same role.
Wait, do you know what this article?
It taught me a new term.
And I have been trying in my 34th year,
in the past six months alone, to say no more.
Oh, no more.
To say no to things that I don't want to do more often
for myself.
Or just to not put myself in positions to burn out
by saying no to some things and not yes to everything.
There's a term called Jomo.
I'm sorry, again?
Jomo.
What does Jomo mean?
J-O-M-O, joy of missing out.
Stop it.
Not fear of missing out, joy of missing out.
Wait, explain, joy of missing out.
Of missing out.
There is a party, there's a gathering of something
on a Friday night at the end of the work week
and you are just done.
You've got nothing left to give.
Maybe you had said you were going to go,
maybe you haven't, it's a last minute thing
and you haven't replied yet.
And your gut instinct and what you want to do
is say no to this gathering.
You say no and you sit at home and do nothing
and you feel joyful about it.
Oh, you are not missing out on that gathering
because you're doing something for yourself.
So you're putting the FOMO, fear of missing out,
you're putting the positive spin on it
instead by saying, I'm not fearful that I'm missing out,
I am happy that I'm missing out 100%.
And it's just by saying no to things
that you want to say no to.
I really like that.
Yeah, the article, I'm going to post it like I said,
so check it out.
It's pretty cool.
When people say, just say no, that has to be a priority.
It's really hard.
There's guilt and shame that comes to it.
Because you don't want to, you don't want to let people down.
You don't want to have the repercussions
or the consequences of what that might be, small, big,
whatever.
I hate saying no, not for myself, but for the other person.
And so it's a lot easier said than done.
Hey, just say no.
This year I'm going to say no, no mo.
But no, no sumo.
You're going to say no sumo.
But it's not in me to do that.
So I think JoMo is a way more positive thing to do.
And for me, that's done.
It's all mental.
Always fill the guilt with the self-care,
even if it's to just go to TJ Maxx for an hour
and just stroll through and look at everything.
I'm one of those TJ Maxxers, Marshalls.
I can go to a store and shop for hours.
And by sometimes nothing, I just like shopping.
I like trying stuff on.
That's my, but my guilt comes in because I like to do it alone.
We are so different.
We are just so different.
Except for the alone part, I really like being alone.
She hates shopping.
I am not a shopper.
I walk in, oh, that's a cool color.
Can I just try that and get out?
Like that's it.
And then that's if I have to go to a store.
Yeah, she is not a shopper.
She's not fun to shop with.
I think it's time for the real tip.
It's been time.
Faux show.
Set it and don't forget it.
So the real tip is schedule it in, in your calendar,
in what you have to do for the week.
And do not wait for the, oh, I'll, when I have free time
and I'm air quoting free time for it to pop up
and do something for yourself, set it in your calendar,
and then you'll be more inclined to follow through
with your self care, whatever you're setting.
It could be 20 minutes.
It could be an hour.
It could be something very small in your house.
It could be going out and getting your nails done,
but put it in your schedule of your list of things to do.
And then you will do it.
And now for your extra tip of the week.
I'm really excited about the name of this.
Your eyebrows are going wild.
It's called simply the best.
Oh, that was simply the best.
It's called simply the best because going off your tip
of the week, you need to save the best 20 minutes
to hour of your day.
You need to figure out what that is or when that is for you.
When is your absolute best time of the day
where you feel at the top of your game?
Where you feel you can do anything.
You need to recognize when that time is
and do the self care that you planned in that timeframe.
You are going to see the benefits of doing it
in your best, let's just say hour.
Let's say you have an hour in the best hour of your day.
You spend eight to 10 hours sleeping if you're lucky.
Maybe seven, maybe six, I don't know.
You spend most of the day working,
mostly for somebody else.
Even if you're in the service industry,
you're working for somebody else like we are.
We're working for all of you, accurate.
You need to recognize when you are at your peak
position of the day and do the thing that you planned
in that time and you're gonna find that it is
one million times better for yourself and beneficial.
You'll actually get the most out of it.
But it is simply the best.
Is anybody else thinking of Patrick from Schitt's Creek
singing simply the best every time you say that?
I mean, I am, I'm trying to channel him.
Talk about self care.
There's your zone out.
Schitt's Creek.
So good.
I'll put that episode in the show notes.
That is one of the best ones.
It is simply the best.
So we want you to be simply the best.
And we want to remind you that you are always fit to be real
and always allowed to be a little extra.
