00:30I was just about to start my skincare routine and I was thinking about routines because I'm sure a lot
00:34of people are going through this out there. My kids are going away to college. I was just thinking about
00:39that. I was thinking about this summer and what a great summer it was. We got to go away together.
00:44I spent as much time with them as I could. And the travel was crazy and it wreaks havoc on
00:52your skin. It wreaks havoc on your body. But those routines really keep you going.
00:56And I think when they go away and I'm sitting here being an empty nester and crying and thinking about
01:04them and looking at baby pictures of them and all that stuff, these routines are the things that are going
01:08to keep me sane.
01:10You know, working out, doing my skincare routine, caring for myself with the newfound kind of space that's in your
01:19life.
01:19You know, you're so excited for them to step into this new era of their life.
01:25But it's also, we have to remember, it's a new era of our lives too. And maybe it's time to
01:31revive some old dreams that you had. Something you put aside during the time that you were raising your kids.
01:39Or things you didn't have time for. Even if it's just reading books or anything like that. That you start
01:47these new rituals and routines that can fill the space for when they go away and they're not down the
01:57hall anymore.
01:57It's a scary time. It's a new beginning in a lot of ways. For them, certainly, but also for you.
02:08So don't forget that. Keep your routines going.
02:16Stay hydrated. Stay happy. Stay joyful. Stay productive. That's our mantra at JLo Beauty. You know, beauty starts from the
02:28inside out.
