Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to Endorphasm , where we talk about all things
.
Endorphasm, I am your hostess,erica Porter.
I live for the joy of life,embracing honesty, integrity,
gratitude and other core valuesthat guide me.

(00:20):
I strive to make eachinteraction meaningful, sharing
something of substance, and,while cancer has deepened my
perspective, I don't let itdefine me.
Life's lesson isn't about dying.
It's about living fully, andI've always known I would chart

(00:43):
my own course, buildingsomething lasting and impactful.
I believe in facing life'schallenges with resilience,

(01:06):
knowing that, while we can'tcontrol, is to embrace each
moment, turn obstacles intoopportunities and let luck meet
preparation, hold on to wonderand inspire others to dream.

(01:29):
Life is about living fully,making a difference and seizing
every moment.
So I guess my hope for each ofyou is to take a moment and to

(01:59):
reflect on the current path thatyou're on and where you see
yourself in the future, but toreally pay attention to the now,
to embrace each moment, tohonor where you are now.
As I've told people over thevery many years that I've been
working in health and fitness,is that if you don't respect

(02:24):
where you are right now, youwill never respect the path that
you're on.
I have said it a million timesand I will say it a million
times more the reflection in themirror is not your true self.
The true self is if you closeyour eyes and you envision the

(02:49):
person that you are and youreflect on how you make people
feel and you pay attention towhat really matters.
Because I know for sure, eventhough I work out and I work my
ass off and I love that feeling,but when I'm on my deathbed I

(03:12):
hope to God or when I die, thatnobody is talking about my.
She had a banging body, it'sgone through its things, but,
more importantly, I hope thatpeople will be discussing how I
made them feel.
So maybe it's time to take ajourney of your own of

(03:37):
self-reflection.
Close your eyes and payattention to the person that you
are and do you live for the joyof life and what things do you
embrace, whether they're honesty, integrity, gratitude or
whatever it might be.
What do you strive for?

(03:58):
Do the interactions that youhave on a daily basis, whether
it's somebody that you just metor you've known your entire life
are they meaningful?
Do you share something ofsubstance?
Are you charting your owncourse?
Things to think about?

(04:19):
