00:00I think I love what you're saying, because I think it really speaks to, especially for women,
00:05you know, we take care of and working women, we are at work, we're handling our business,
00:10but then we're also taking care of our household, we're managing so many things. And you're just
00:17such a great example of how you can really have that balance and be great in all areas of your
00:23life. So I applaud you for that. And I would love to even just say, like, you know, if you have a
00:28PSA that you could give to other black women struggling with balancing all of those things,
00:33and figuring out what to prioritize in this time, you know, what would you say?
00:39Well, first, I would say it's okay. Like, it's okay. Owning the fact that things you have all
00:47these things, and you may not be in control of all of them. So recognizing that and owning that and
00:54knowing it is okay. And there is no judgment there. Oftentimes, we're so we judge ourselves,
01:02because we also think we're being judged by so many other people. But I would say own, own, own it.
01:10Then I would say do align your list of priorities with things that really make you that make you happy,
01:17and not happiness in the short term, but really happiness in the long term, because
01:24the changes that you want to make are things that you want to stick to.
01:29And find and build in happiness within your life for the long term. And we deserve that. So there are
01:37things that I've done that I don't want to go back to. They said, Oh, the new normal. Yep,
01:41you're right. Bam, balance. You know, you know, I don't want to go back. And so it's just encouraging,
01:50you know, my sisters out there to to own whatever the existing condition is and how you feel. But no,
01:59you can change that attitude by looking for happiness that only you can provide for yourself,
02:06that will translate itself into happiness for others, because you're happy. And if you're happy,
02:15then folks around you feel they feel it. You know, they really do. They feel it. And some may be even
02:22hateful that you have. And in that way, you can say, you know what, I knew that the whole way.
02:27You know, it's the true thing. Some people want to keep you in that space. But when you decide for
02:35yourself, one would make you happy, prioritize things around that and take steps and every step
02:43will be more empowered, more happy, and more blessed.
