"Well, that is because your body is really wanting to produce a hormone to help you feel comforted. Kind of interesting to think about. So not only does the food we eat become our hormones, but the food we eat then also triggers domino effects of hormones in our bodies. You can also study foods that are aphrodisiacs. You can study foods that are calming for us. You can study foods that actually are detrimental to estrogen production like plastic in bottles. The BPA and bottles actually makes women's bodies produce more estrogen and so everything that we eat has this domino effect in our body. So that's number one. And by the way, I'm always willing to take you on as a nutrition coach. That is something that I really love to do is the one on one. Or small group coaching of nutrition. And I thrive in that area because I am, I know. The effects that food can have on our body from personal experience also from my education. So reach out to me, I do free consultations you can find that up on my website. And that information will be in the show notes as well today. All right, second one, getting regular exercise. Exercise is also a very easy one to implement to be able to get our hormones in harmony. Exercise helps regulate the production of hormones. So if you have too much of something, you're too little of something exercise actually helps regulate those levels for your body, exercise can reduce stress levels. So our hormone that causes one hormone that causes stress is cortisol. But then we also have what are called happy hormones, dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, and endorphins. If you know that I have an athletic wear line, it is actually called dose based off of the four happy hormones. Those four happy hormones, we get a dose of happiness as we work out. And so that's how I came up with my athletic wear line because you kind of get a dopamine rush as you exercise, but also as you put on new clothes, someday we'll talk about that. But going back to exercise. So it can help reduce stress levels and you want to there are many, many guidelines for exercise. Many. And why I say that is because, again, everybody in circumstance is different. And if you are more sensitive to hormones, some sort of exercise recommendation might not be good for your body compared to other recommendations. Our muscles are also built differently in our bodies. We have what are called slow twitch muscles and fast twitch muscles. Say that ten times fast. And we each have a different ratio of those muscles within within the build of our muscles. So somebody can have 30 to 50 percent of one, and then so you can have a different ratio, like two out of ten, and then an 8 out of ten. And so

"Back to listen and know. Today we're actually going to do something different than I haven't done so far in the past couple episodes and that is to have a day where we have PMDD real talk. So what this entails is me throughout my cycles pulling thoughts and experiences, not well, not only through mind, but also from other people forums that I'm a part of and clients that I have who are willing to share anonymously the things that they go through. I really want to shed light on how PMDD or any sort of premenstrual disorder in general. Really affects our mindset and how we view the world. It's kind of like you're wearing extremely dark sunglasses and an already kind of darkened room. A really hard to see things clearly, maybe even prescription sunglasses. And just not just not really being able to be a 100% ourselves, however, in the back of our head, we are still there. It's kind of like you know that there are two sides of you. You know, I like to explain PMDD like doctor Jekyll, mister Hyde type of experience when it comes to what goes on inside your brain when PMDD talks versus when my normal clarissa self talks. So today I'm going to get kind of raw and real with you and vulnerable with you if this is not something that you're interested in, you're welcome to skip over it. But I think that it will allow more people to have courage to speak up when they are not feeling okay and maybe give them even some words or some language to use to be able to explain to maybe a spouse or a friend or a parent. What they're going through because I know that I didn't have that. And I have really appreciated that I have found places to be able to relate to those who have what I'm going through. This also might be able to be a good thing just in general mental health to understand how distorted thoughts work and what they sound and look like in somebody else's head. Everybody has some distortion of thought, but when you're experiencing some sort of mental illness or mental disorder that those distorted thoughts are heavy and they're often and they're very powerful in how you end up acting throughout your day. So we're just going to kind of head in. I am taking today 5 or 6 questions that I have been asked if I have these types of symptoms and explaining a little bit about how I feel when I do have these symptoms or if I don't, I just wanted to share the things that I had been asked. So the very first thing that I have been asked in just recent time is if I feel insecure or have internalized shame. I think that there is a sort of sorrow that I experience constantly knowing that the ebb and flow of PMDD will come and go. So first of all, let me backtrack. If you are new to this, you might want to go listen to the episode on premenstrual disorders and get kind of an idea of where we're headed. This is specifically through premenstrual disorder. Lens this podcast and so I will relate my experiences and my coaching and all this expertise that I share through the lens of premenstrual disorders. So just putting that out there. But there's always some sort of underlying sorrow that I feel for myself and those around me in knowing that there will be an ebb and a flow knowing that PMDD will come back and it's not just like this one and done thing. Like there is a no happily ever after for me in PMDD. Specifically, it's the worst when I have maybe had some sort of small outburst of PMDD or after I come out of the fog of PMDD. That is specifically where it's so, so bad. The shame because mainly because we are, we are kind of in a very destructive stage during PMDD, those who experience it, at least I am, where it's really hard to manage any sort of extra stress, any drop of stress versus like a bucket of stress. If you're going through something stressful, it just exponentially explodes PMDD symptoms or PMDD symptoms will explode that stress. There is definitely a sort of shame feeling like I am the worst. I am the broken one. And in all honesty, sometimes that's a pretty honest statement, like my body really doesn't work right and they don't know, you know, people don't know how to solve this. PMDD, people don't know how to manage it very well yet and even with all the science advancements that we've had so far. We're not quite there. And I do know that there would probably be a part of my family where my friends that would do better with somebody who could stay emotionally and mentally consistent because I can't. That's just not, it's just not who I am with PMDD. The second one, well, and to go back to drop into that just a little bit further. I think the shame was even greater when I was living in my parents home, not married. Just because we want to please our parents so much and at that point in my life I didn't know what was wrong with me, which will lead into our next question, but I didn't know what was wrong with me. I thought that I had sinned or broken rules where I deserved that sort of mental health. And really like the phrasing that I use often is scum of the earth. In a lot of my journal entries in a lot of the conversations that I have, that is truly sometimes how I feel. During PMDD episodes. So yes, there is a lot of internalized shame in its excruciatingly not only mental, that emotionally and physically painful. It just eats. All right, so the second question that I have had about PMDD is if I have thought I have had BPD bipolar or any sort of personality disorder. And the answer is a 150% yes. In fact, when my parents first took me into a psychologist to see if they could get some help for me. The psychologists actually, and this was early 90s, so bipolar disorder wasn't really a thing yet. I mean, it was just still in its beginning stages, but the psychologists suggested that I might have bipolar disorder

"Hormones travel through the bloodstream to reach their target tissues. So even thinking about having a lot of sugar in your blood might affect the chemical messenger that a hormone is going from your brain or other parts of your body to what actually is needed. Where it's actually needed. So once again, once they reach these target tissues, hormones bind to the receptors on cells and trigger a response. The response can vary depending on the hormone and the tissue like we talked about progesterone slowing things down when I have high progesterone in my body as a female. Weight lifting is probably not a really great thing for me because my reaction time is slow. There have been studies that show that females who are who have high progesterone, at certain points in their cycle, if they were a professional athlete, have a slower reaction time, so a goalie would take up to 35% more time to react to a ball coming to the goal. And so it would be wise for coaches and athletes to know where they're at in their hormone cycle so that they can utilize those functions better and maybe switch out the goalie for the day and put the person who has a slower reaction time to maybe a longer runner on the field because they have more endurance than that reaction time. So it would be wise for coaches to know these things that would be wise for parents to know these things if they have girls for husbands to understand these things as well as all females who have female biochemistry to understand the pros of having their hormones where they're at and also the things to look out for so that they can utilize appropriately their bodies in the right way and make it more of a superpower than a limitation. Hormones play many aspects of health including our growth and development.

"They're in a little bit of a different rhythm than you. And we truly do wake up high schoolers too early for their bodies to really want to wake up and so that can cause some mood issues, right? When their circadian rhythms off, it can cause insomnia can cause mood swings, those kinds of things. So that's one thing that I want to say. The next thing that I wanted to talk about was that our hormones follow circadian rhythms. So we have higher energy throughout the day than we have a lull, then we have medium energy, and we have a little bit of uptick at the night. So ours is like, we wake up with high energy, it drops, it raises a little bit, and then we go back to sleep. So they kind of have this roller coaster fall throughout the day versus teenagers that have two big mountains throughout the day. Now it's like a blizzard. Seriously, and I was just thinking I was going to walk over and smell my neighbor's tulips. So when we experience these energy ebbs and flows, no, that those are part of our circadian rhythm. Men's specifically follow the circadian rhythm, almost to a T, they wake up with high cortisol, which cortisol is a stress hormone, but it can be a good stress hormone to a good extent. It gets us out of bed. So when we're driven to get out of bed, and then cortisol dies throughout the day. So we have like this drive to get a lot of stuff done in the morning. So that's really important for people who have lots of to dos, get your hard things done in the morning because you're not going to want to do them in the afternoon. And then as we hit one or 2 p.m. in the day in a normal day, we actually hit a lull and this lull is when other cultures take siestas, so they take a nap during the day and everything shuts down because our bodies naturally have a lull. You might feel this more heavily in a PMD if your blood sugar is not regulated. So you're going to get like those extreme munchies. I actually take a nap about this time every day during certain parts of my cycle. My menstrual cycle so that I can keep my energy up. And just like that, it's done snowing. And then when and then we have that little bump at the end of the day kind of what we would want to call like our second wind, which allows moms to get their kids where their kids need to go or allows us to go forage for dinner, just like animals. You know, we have that little uptick of energy, and then we slow down the rest of the way for the night.

"It doesn't bother them and then again, caffeine and alcohol you can get used to the dosages of those. And so then you can become less sensitive to those. As you take them but you would need more to get a bigger kick. My recommendation if you are going to incorporate caffeine into your day that you try and do that before probably two to 3 p.m. in the day. So I do caffeine when I work out. In the mornings, which right now, you don't want to flood your system with caffeine first thing in the morning unless you are going to burn it off. Because our systems, this is kind of another side note, but because our systems are already so high in cortisol, we don't want to stress our system more by putting caffeine in our bodies and then not doing anything. So if you are going to have caffeine in the morning, you want to be able to have it and then burn it off. If you are not going to be working out, consider doing your caffeine after you have been awake for a couple hours after breakfast, but before 2 p.m.. So that doesn't really give you a big window for you to have caffeine. Now, somebody might be able to do caffeine at 10 a.m. and still not be able to sleep at night. And so just be a cognizant of that and aware of that. Like if you are having a hard time getting sleep, if you're having a hard time with your circadian rhythm, to maybe consider taking out some of those stimulants for a couple of weeks to be able to see if that's what is causing that issue. I remember that kids are also very sensitive to caffeine. And so if you're letting your child have sips off your Cola, if you are drinking that during the day, your body might not be sensitive, but there's also might be sensitive.

"So circadian rhythms are important for maintaining health and well-being. So if your circadian rhythm gets thrown off, this really can affect your health in physical and mental ways. So if we're looking at PMD's, if we're looking at this through the lens of a premenstrual disorder, we want to keep our circadian rhythm going healthily as much as possible because if we throw that off that can be a mood swing, that can be lethargy throughout the day, low energy, and so this then can put us in a spiral of events, maybe then because we're so tired we eat extra and maybe we don't choose the right kinds of food. And then we create unhealthy habits due to just something as simple as keeping our circadian rhythm in check. And you might not be able to tell if it's from your circadian rhythm. So this is just a great tool to think about and to use as you think about your PMD's or managing your hormonal health. When the circadian rhythm is out of sync with the environment, it can lead to problems such as jet lag, insomnia, and seasonal affective disorder. So, my husband and I flew to Hawaii once. And I got really bad jet lag. And I literally could not even lift my head up without just fainting back down into the bed. And so I've always been nervous to travel too far of time zones. Because of the bad jet lag that I had. However, this past year my husband and I went to London and to help with my circadian rhythm, I made sure that in the mornings, we got out early enough that I could see some sun and get going and spent more time outside that first day than inside and that actually really helped. And I didn't have the same sort of effects that I had when I had traveled to Hawaii. Now, saying that I also had taken some medication to help me sleep on the plane on my way to Hawaii and I think that I had a little bit to do with maybe being left over in my system and I haven't done that medication since it had been recommended to us from a friend who had traveled and so there's that possibility. Now, lead to insomnia, I know that when my kids or my husband or probably even me are on tech for a really long time at the end of the night that our brains are so wired, we don't feel like sleeping. So it is important to maybe reach for an actual

"Also, right now, when I'm recording this, I have some tulips popping up in my yard. It's spring, and they also run on a circadian rhythm. It's kind of cool in the morning. They'll be all closed. And as we go throughout the day, they open, they show off their middles and all the colors inside, and then is it cools down, and the sun goes down at night, they close back up to protect themselves. Something else, animals tend to either be awake at night or a week during the day, and they also run on a circadian rhythm. So the birds chirp in the morning around, well, right now it's around 5 a.m., but in the middle of the summer, it's around 4 a.m.. And the chirp at night, and then throughout the middle of the day, when it gets too hot for them, they tend to kind of set in the trees and be more quiet, but they also run on 24 hour periods. And so do humans. So we naturally want to get up in the morning. We have energy throughout the day and then we need to sleep at night. So that is kind of the basic look at some of the plants and animals that are in the circadian rhythm. So circadian rhythm is a natural process that helps organisms to anticipate and prepare for regular changes in their environment. For example, again, plants open their leaves during the day and close them at night, just like the tulips we talked about, but you can see that on trees that happens with pollens and grasses, et cetera. Animals, most animals

"But the female hormones, even though you don't bleed, fema hormones keep going and keep producing as they slow down. It's not just like one and done, suddenly I'm not producing estrogen or progesterone again. No, like they slow down. It's like slow breaks to the stoplight. So even though the light has turned red, I'm still 300 yards away and I have to slow down. It's not just like I slammed on the brakes. And so there's this give and take between both sides of that menstrual cycle, but I think that we need to create a very healthy understanding that the menstrual cycle for most females is their whole entire life from, you know, 8, 9, ten, 11, all the way into their 50s and 60s, and then post menopause like, yes, I understand that's done, but we can talk about that a little bit later. But we really need to take away that stigma and that inability to talk about this freely because again, 49% of our population has those hormones in their bodies. And wouldn't it be lovely if we could embrace it and embrace the superpowers of it so that there isn't this negative stigma about it and that we work together male and female to bring two individual genders together that are whole to be able to hold up the world's culture and the world's expectations so much better than only one type of person holding that up. So I love the idea of embracing both men and women in their biochemistries and working together where we can fill in the gaps when we have weakness and we can also bring our strengths to the table. So remember, it's all the time. All right, so the menstrual cycle is a natural process and it's part of being a female and then we have so that we talked a little bit more about what this normally looks like, but now we can go into abnormalities and start talking about, okay, what if dot dot dot? Okay, I missing dot, dot, dot. And then we can then have discussions about how to utilize tools and how to get you back into a quote unquote normal range for your body. There's nothing to be shamed. Of when it comes to talking about your period, if you have any questions or concerns about your menstrual cycle, talk to your doctor, but also understand that they might have limited understanding.

"Get ready for hibernation essentially when we talk about the menstrual phase being winter. So as the as the luteal phase comes to a close, that's usually where we see PMD's of premenstrual exasperation and. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder, which is what I have. And so the last 6 or 7 days before your period is that progesterone peaks and then as it drops, it creates so much shift in hormonal levels that there is that abnormal reaction to those normal levels and that's where we see the symptoms of PMD so heavily, even just PMS in general is those last 5 or 6 days before the menstrual cycle starts. So isn't that like so neat when you understand that, then what is so cool is you can start tracking your menstrual cycle in many different ways you can start tracking it and so then we have the ability to know when those low days are and plan for them because you then get educated on what that looks like for your body, you clue into how your body handles it, then you clue into some tips and tricks and tools that I can give you as a coach or somebody else and be able to utilize that as your superpower. Each of these four phases in the menstrual cycle that we've talked about, all come with a really awesome superpower that we can eventually talk about as we dive into these individual phases deeper. Okay, so ways to track your menstrual cycle. You can use a period tracker app. I use an app called flow. It works okay. It's not my favorite. There's some ads on it. I guess you could pay for the ad list one. I also don't like some of the suggestions that pop up in on my phone. I like that it will say, today you're close to your period, you might feel a little bit bloated. But what I don't like is when it gives suggestions outside of the menstrual cycle, for example, how to make your intimate life more exciting. Because when I look at that, I wouldn't want a teenager to be using that. So if you're okay with that and you can just swipe that off or if you need those in your relationship, that's fine. But it's not something I would want my daughters to use. Instead, there's also the ability to track on different watches like Fitbit and Apple and Google watches that they have the ability to track your menstrual cycle. So I like that. That's coming along. The Fitbit still a little bit behind. It doesn't always sink well and so sometimes it will switch when my menstrual cycle is. So that's why I still use the flow app. You can use a calendar just on print off a calendar or just a Google calendar. I used to mark the week that would be hard for me so that my family would know, okay, this is mom's red week. Or this is mom's green week. She's going to be super excited and hopeful and it's the time for us to go do activities because she's going to have good energy versus the red week when I'm experiencing PMDD, it's a really bad week for me. And so that just signals to my family. Where I'm at. So we've done that in the past, but most of the time, my family's to the point where I can just tell them, okay, okay, this is going to be a red week for me. You can do just a planner.

"They are saying that it can even be upwards of one in 12, women that have PMDD, but then we're looking at even adding onto that for those who have not even been diagnosed yet. Like I said, PMDD is a more severe form of PMS and it is, well, we'll talk about that in a second too. So let's talk about the symptoms of PMDD. So PMDD symptoms can be severe mood swings, anxiety, depression, panic attacks, suicidal thoughts and ideation, difficulty concentrating, then we have physical symptoms of fatigue, insomnia, heavy, cravings that kind of overwrite chemical like overwrite all rationale and then we have like abdominal pain in bloating in physical signs of your menstrual cycle and bloating as well. So then following along p.m. PMDD and PMS, we have what's called PME. Now this isn't necessarily a disorder caused by hormones. But it PME is premenstrual exacerbation. So that means that you have a previous condition, but because of the hormones in your body, that condition is heightened to a new level. So this occurs when the hormones changes during the weeks before menstruation, and any preexisting disorder like depression, generalized anxiety disorder, bipolar, schizophrenia, those conditions get worse. I've even seen clients that have like OCD that that gets a lot worse during your premenstrual phase, which is your luteal phase, the ten to two weeks before your menstrual cycle starts. So it doesn't cause new symptoms. It just heightens already existing symptoms. So those are kind of the three disorders that we really work with. We have PMS PMDD and PME. What causes these disorders? Well, most. Commonly known is that these disorders are have unknown causes. It is thought that they can be caused by a combination of hormonal changes, stress, and lifestyle. So as we do treatment, we look at the lifestyle of a client, like as I work with clients, we do a lifestyle check of the client, and we work on those things. We can also work on managing stress and then making sure that we know and understand when our hormones are changing. And again, what messages those hormones are sending to us. Premenstrual disorders are treated in a lot of different ways. There's no cure for them, but they can be minimized in symptoms and managed. Treatment options can include what we talked about lifestyle changes. So this

I started in 2017 and went through 2018 and then stopped due to life circumstances and we went through a pandemic and now I'm back with a lot more experience a lot better teaching and I am thrilled to be able to share this with you. I really wanted to create a podcast specific to hormonal disorders. I have seen an epidemic in my clients and in just the population as a whole that they don't know about hormones. They've been given such a bad rap and our lives technically run on hormones. And so I want to be able to talk about those things hormonal disorders and what can come with that throughout this podcast so that you can listen and know your body because hormones are just chemical messengers giving you messages and how to decode those and use those for your own personal health is important to me. And I feel a need to educate and share on that. So today we are going to talk about in this episode one. We are going to talk about pre menstrual disorders. This is near and dear to my heart, so I feel like this is a great segue into everything else that we talk about. And we'll talk about here on listen and know. So pre menstrual disorders are a group of symptoms that occur in the week or two before a woman's period. These symptoms can range from mild to severe and they can interfere with a woman's daily life. The most common premenstrual disorder is premenstrual syndrome, which is PMS. This is a term that has been used for years and years and years, and I remember that. As a kid and beyond previous to my own menstruating, that PMS is a condition that affects about 80% of females. Symptoms of PMS can include mood swings, irritability, fatigue, bloating, breast tenderness, craving of food, headaches, bloating, and then also we have pre menstrual dysphoric disorder, which is a more severe PMS and we'll talk about that in a second. So most PMS symptoms can be cured or minimized by taking care of your health in nutrition, exercise sleep and stress management.

"Motivated and overwhelmed are feelings. Happy, excited, calm, peaceful. There are suggested feelings versus any emotional choice, right? So our body, because it's the language of our body. So we think a thought, and then our body suggests an emotion to go along with that thought. It's just a suggestion we do not have to choose to follow that suggestion when you have that lightbulb moment of, oh, my body suggesting that I'm angry right now, but guess what? I don't want to be angry. I'm not going to. And I'm really looking at my thoughts and I'm looking at my feelings and I'm being curious about those.

So in our House, we have an emotion wheel printed off and it floats around the house from room to room depending on when we're having conversation. And this emotion will talk about the basic basic feelings and then there's all different words surrounding it that describe that same feeling that are more honed in and less generalized. So I am going to post our emotion wheel on the show notes and you guys can click on the link and go and download that. It's in our member resources. So you'll have to make a quick little log in. It just requires your name in your email address. And then you can go and download the emotion wheel in our member resources, which is just super awesome. And you can use that to help your kids. I also have one and this one is an app, but I'm sure you could find it on a Google search. But just faces, emotional faces, and my three year old will look through it and say, oh, I feel like that. Oh, I'm feeling like this. Oh, look my face. I can make it like that. So these are all really good things for our children to and for us.

"Use as a tool for motivation and talk correctly that these thoughts that we see others having of us can maybe lead to shaming and depressing ourselves of personal celebration. That we choose to be negative towards ourselves or don't give ourselves enough credit. So that other people can't, it's kind of like a survival tactic, excuse me, that we use because we'll hurt ourselves before somebody else hurts us, so somebody else doesn't have to do that job, right? But looking at my three year old, I mean, we don't have to do that. Honestly, you are your best cheerleader. Not everyone is going to like you or approve of what you do and not everyone is going to be there when you choose to do a new workout challenge, or you choose to start eating healthy, man. I remember getting so upset that my husband would not support me in me choosing to eat healthy for my body. I mean, he comes home and he eats whatever he wants and he has 6 meals at bedtime and he has a bowl of ice cream and man, I want to join in and I remember getting so upset at him that he was not pushing me along. But it is because I wanted him to do the pushing and not take responsibility for being my own cheerleader. I mean, you have to do it for you, but if we are so focused on how far we have to go and that we're doing it alone and that somebody's not doing it with us, you know, we're not going to complete that journey. Or if we're doing it for the wrong reasons, you know, outside of ourselves, we have to look at our own fence posts, you know, we will, we will finish that challenge and we will revert right back to the way that we used to be because it wasn't a lasting change. So how do we choose to celebrate ourselves? I mean, that sounds like a really strong word, but it's true. You know, like, I want to be dancing in the front of the mirror. Oh yeah, I got this. I'm awesome. And I've seen my daughter do that before. How do I embody that and to that for myself? Well, the morning my therapist shared this story with me was kind of a crazy morning for me. And I felt like making it to therapy. I had just failed by the time I had made its therapy. It was ten in the morning. And he asked me to share with him about my morning and I was like, my morning was not cool. And I remember feeling like, I have nothing to share with you. I did not accomplish anything today. And he said, well wait, clarissa, you are not giving yourself enough credit. And he said, did you realize that you are the only one in the waiting room? Who? Is wearing makeup? And do you realize that you don't have your three kids here? That you got your kids to school and to a babysitter and you're here on your own.

"Ingrains a habit of normality and actually uses less processing, material and energy into focusing on those things that are normal for us. But the things that are novel or things that we lack because they're not normal for us are easier to see because it says, wow, wait, I haven't seen that before and it takes a longer time to focus on them in a delegates more processing energy to focusing on those things. So when we are focused on things outside of what we already have or what we are capable of, we will find a lack, right? And it's a mindset of scarcity and it causes a block of creativity and problem solving. And utilizing what is right in front of us, it also creates depressive thoughts and issues. It is focusing on the bad football. Okay? So as we focus on the bad football, we will see more bad and lose vision of the good, right? But if we choose to see the good football, we will be focused in and our brains will see how amazing it is that we truly already have what we need. And even more than what we actually already have. So there are some really good people who have been gifted with the ability to focus on the good. And some of us either haven't been gifted for that or we were taught to focus on the negative by maybe how we were raised or experiences that we had with teachers, et cetera, as we grew up and developed. What is so great is that we can actually learn to change our focus. And we can actually help our brain to shift. Those neurotransmitters to help us see the good. And when you think about it, when you think about this test of these footballs, it truly is in a hard thing when you go back to it because it's just a shift from looking at one football to looking at a different football. It's a shift in our gaze. It's not that we're starting new and fresh because the good things are already there, we just have lost focus on seeing those. So let's talk about some ways to work on your focus. I listen to a podcast once and I really wish I could remember who said it, but I know that it was the good life project podcast. One of my favorite podcasts you need to go check it out. It's a little orange. Icon and it's called the good life project. And in that they talked about the host and the person he was interviewing, they talked about every time they went to do something, they would ask themselves if that action was towards their focus or if it would, in other words, if it would lead to success and progress towards that success. So whatever you define your success as, which is something that we do in our mind and our life coaching courses is that we work on defining what success is to us. And I find myself often asking myself, will this lead to success when I become mindful that I might be like scrolling aimlessly on instant media or I mean social media instant media that's too funny. If I am scrolling aimlessly on social media or I'm choosing between options of activities for my day, will this activity lead to my success or my ultimate feelings of success, right?
