Leaving the comfort of a corporate job to chase the entrepreneurial dream is like leaping into the unknown, filled with both exhilarating freedom and the gritty reality of what it takes to build something from the ground up. As we kick off a new year on Mindfully Moody, we share our journey of personal growth and self-discovery over the past three years, capturing the essence of what it means to transition from structured routines to the dynamic world of entrepreneurship. Mentorship emerges as a crucial beacon on this path, and we discuss how accessible wisdom can be a game-changer, lighting the way even when the road seems steep.
Reflecting on personal growth, we emphasize the often-overlooked art of energy management, urging you to audit your life and align it with what truly matters. A bittersweet moment arises as I announce my temporary departure from the podcast to focus on my pregnancy and upcoming home birth—a decision rooted in the prioritization of well-being during transformative life changes. While this chapter closes, it's more of a 'see you later' than a farewell. We end on a note of gratitude, cherishing the meaningful progress and connections forged along this journey, and joyfully anticipate reconnecting with our cherished listeners soon. Until then, we send love and appreciation, reminding you that this is merely a pause, not the end.

conversation here on the podcastand chat with y'all.
So welcome back.
Happy New Year.
How we doing.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Hello, I can't believe it's 2025.
I'm going to be saying that forthe next like six months
because I still feel like it'snot going to resonate to me that
it's 2025.
I keep writing 2024 oneverything Same I'm like oh,
that's every year though youknow.
But yeah, it's crazy.
I feel like we haven't recordedin so long and it's been three
(01:08):
years since we started MindfullyMoody, which is just like wow,
wow, wow, wow, I'm just thinkingabout, like I'm in my new house
right now that I just movedinto, like all the different
places that I've recordedMindfully Moody in the last
three years because I've been inso many different places you
know, yeah, if you think aboutlike where we were when we
(01:32):
started this, like I'm thinkingI was like in my apartment in
Austin, like working atSpringshot.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Oh my gosh, like we were just such different people
then, such different people.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Then I know it's so crazy, it's so crazy.
I was what.
So when we first startedtalking about Mindfully Moody, I
was at home with my parents.
I remember in Naples, livingduring COVID, but then when we
first got up and running yeah, Iguess that would have been
(02:08):
where was I living at that time?
The fancy apartment in Oakland?
Yeah, yeah, that's what I justI always call it.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, the one with the floor-to-ceiling windows,
that one.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
And then, yeah, I moved to another place in
Oakland and then I moved toFlorida.
And then, yeah, I moved toanother place in Oakland and
then I moved to Florida and I'vebeen in three different places
recording since I've been inFlorida.
So five different apartmentsWow, well, four apartments in
one house that I've recorded in.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
We also like I remember, I feel like it was
that year that we started, sowhat?
It was 2022, right, yeah, let'scut off for it.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
It's like there is so many pros and I do think,
obviously, that the prosoutweigh the cons.
Like I never am actually goingto go back, but I feel that I
took so much shit for grantedwhen I did work in corporate and
I wish I could go back and belike it's not that bad.
You know what I mean?
(03:10):
Do you feel that way?
No, you're like it was that bad.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
No, it was that bad.
I just am like thinking aboutthe anxiety, Like just this for
example, you know it's 1030 on aWednesday and like we get to
like record in the middle of theday without like any stress.
Like I love that.
You know the free, the freedom,but you have to be OK with, if
you're fully committing to thatof not making shit, eating shit.
(03:36):
Like it's hard, it's it's.
I wish I would have known that.
Like so many people do sell thedream of, like you know, zero to
10 K in three months and likeI've been victim to that, I've
done that myself.
Like it's not easy.
I'm still here, like you know,two and a half years in, and
it's still a hustle.
(03:56):
Like I'm still haven't hit thegoals that I want.
Like it's, it's challenging.
And I would say, like all of asudden I'm getting this advice
call about work, but like get amentor.
Like if you can, like havesomebody that's doing what you
want to do, like just literallybe like, hey, I'll go work for
free for you so you canliterally jump timelines.
(04:17):
You know that's what I'm justthinking.
Like someone's already done it.
Just learn from somebody.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I wish that I would have done that when I was
working in corporate, like if Iwould have went and said to like
a coach, you know like I'llwork for you for free for 10, 15
hours a week, you know, just tolike see how you are making
your money.
You know, because now it's likeyou think about mentorship and
(04:44):
it's like you have to paythousands and thousands and
thousands of dollars.
I mean people pay 10, 15, 20,25,000 to get a mentor these
days.
You know.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Yeah, whatever happened to the good old free
mentor?
I got a mentor Like someone's,like do you have a mentor?
And it's like that costs a lotof money 5,000, $10,000.
I want to find a free mentor,someone that just kind of still
their heart wants to show me theropes, I know, wouldn't that be
nice yeah.
I mean, I would be a mentor tosomeone that's listening.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I was just going to say that I was just going to say
that, like I would absolutelymentor, I mean I'm not going to
give you like all the freakingtime, like when you pay for it
you know you're getting moreaccess.
But yeah, I mean it's just it'sit's a hustle, it's a challenge
, you know.
I mean I think about myparents' business.
Like you know, that Rez and Iare taking over.
(05:34):
I mean they took, like they'vebeen in business almost 20 years
, so I mean they took eight to10 years to hit their stride.
Yeah, yeah, you know, I mean ittakes time.
It's like this did not growinto something overnight, you
know, and you know it takes.
(05:57):
A certain type of business and Ilove that there's so much out
there on the Internet, you know,from people that are in the
space of us is like you can makemillions of dollars a year.
But I do think that that is avery, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very smallpercentage of people that are
making that much money.
You know, and in a lot ofbusinesses it can be challenging
(06:18):
to to scale to that that level.
You know.
Yeah, but it's also hard toscale and be like doing
something that you're passionateabout, so like me doing
retreats.
You know I'm so deeplypassionate about that.
Is that going to make memillions of dollars?
No, it's not, because otherwiseI would have to go out of
(06:40):
integrity to charge people somuch money that it wouldn't be
accessible to anyone other than0.5% of the population.
You know.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, no, totally I mean it.
I don't.
You guys are probably likewhere is this episode going, but
I feel like this is like stuffthat's on our heart.
Yeah, that's what I feel too.
I just did a TikTok on that of,like you know, everyone wants
to be at this point immediatelyand it's like look at the
(07:15):
Saharas of the world, right,like she started her YouTube
channel in like 2016.
Like almost 30.
They started, I don't know,know, maybe over five years ago,
like manifestation babe.
Like she started 10.
She's been doing this for 10years.
So, like these people, it'slike we, we want their lives.
We're like add, you know,admiring them.
(07:35):
Yet they've put in like yearsand years and years of work.
So, anyways, yeah, I think it'sit.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
It's deciding where you want to put in the work,
what feels most aligned to you,and like following that path
(08:07):
phases of life where, like youhave the time and the energy to
hustle, you know to bededicating, you know, 50, 60
hours a week to working, or evenwhen you're an entrepreneur.
It's like, even if you're notactively working for 50 to 60
hours a week, which most peopleprobably are, but you're
thinking about it yeah, at leastthat often, if not, you know,
because it's on your mind Like Imean, I wake up thinking about
(08:28):
how I'm going to make more money, or like what I need to do for
the day, or what work thing youknow.
Like that stays on my mind sooften.
But then other things startarising in your life, like me
being pregnant, and it's likeyou have to slow down the hustle
, you know, and you go into adifferent transition where it's
(08:50):
like I can't, I mean I'mstruggling to work 40 hours a
week at this point, you know.
So, um, and I just really I'mlike, am I gonna?
As I just said that I'm like Iwant to be an advocate for
pregnant women not working, um,because it's so hard, you know,
(09:13):
it's like I don't really likesometimes I, I will get like the
inspiration of like okay, howam I gonna expand my, my
businesses?
But a lot of times I'm like howam I gonna to expand my
businesses?
But a lot of times I'm like howam I going to fucking make it
through the day?
Speaker 1 (09:25):
You know like how am.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
I going to get out of bed or whatever you know.
So it's brought me into thisdifferent phase in my life where
I've had to just re-evaluate alot of ways that I spend my time
.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yeah, yeah, and I think it's good to have those
moments, I mean, obviously, withyou being in the pregnancy.
There's so much going likealready going on in your
internal world, and taking anaudit of like your external
world is critical, of like, okay, what I have this much energy
(09:59):
in my day, in my life, like,where do I want to be spending
my energy?
What's going to put me in thebest position for my son, like
my future family, you know, andI think that's good, whether
people are pregnant or startinga new job or moving to a new
city.
Like totally taking an audit onyour life and being like, okay,
(10:19):
what am I currently focusing on?
What is maybe draining myenergy?
How can I reclaim parts of meto align to the person that I
want to be Like?
I think having a daily practiceof that is like what feels good.
Where do I want to put moreenergy?
Where, you know, because things, yeah, things take our, our
(10:42):
energy and it's like,subconsciously sometimes too, of
like, okay, I'm having thishuge energy lake with health
stuff, you know, and it's like,how can that?
I don't want that energy to gogo there and it's like, probably
, like a huge percentage of myenergy in the day is going
towards that thing, so yeah,yeah that also, just to say all
(11:06):
that we get into.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Yes, I have a little announcement for my mindfully
listeners.
I'm so serious, okay.
Also, I feel like this is notsurprising because many people
do this.
You know, I am going to take abreak from podcasting.
I'm taking a break from a lotof things in my life actually,
(11:36):
in order to just focus.
I'm almost in my thirdtrimester and I am putting a lot
of my energy now into I meanone, resting, two, being able to
sustain, you know, mybusinesses outside of Mindfully
Moody, and then also like, intopreparing for birth.
I'm going to do a home birthand there's a lot of like mental
(12:02):
, physical preparation that isgoing into that for me.
So I am going to take a breakfrom Mindfully Moody.
So sadly and it does like, as Isay that like, of course, it
makes me so sad because I loverecording, I love being with
Hannah, I love sharing what ison our hearts, the things that
(12:25):
we love to do, the things thatwe've learned.
I mean the whole reason westarted this podcast is to help
people with all of the tools andthings that we have learned on
our journeys, and that's a bigpart of my purpose and passion.
I mean it is my purpose andpassion, like as a coach, as a
(12:46):
facilitator, and yeah, it's ahard decision for me.
It was a really hard decisionfor me, but I think it's the
right decision for me.
So it is an undetermined amountof time, but really do.
As I'm saying this, I'm like Iwill be back like it's not
(13:09):
goodbye, it's see you later.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Yes, it's see you later.
Uh, yeah, this, I mean we'vebeen like sitting on this for
like the past month, so there'sbeen a lot of like processing
and like conversations around it, but like one, obviously, like
it was hard to take it in atfirst, but like such a beautiful
(13:32):
example you are to like chooseyourself above all other things
and, like you know, even thoughit's hard to to come to like I'm
proud of you for that you know.
Even though it's hard to cometo, like I'm proud of you for
that, you know, because there'sselfish things that come up of
like oh, I mean, just keepMindfully Moody going, but like
end of the day, like you'rehaving a freaking baby and you
need to reclaim your energy, andlike make sure that you're like
(13:55):
top notch for all of that.
And I agree, like I think,mindfully moody, like well,
you're, you're, I think you'llstill come on.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
I think that will.
Yes, I would love you know whoknows guest guest, uh, yeah,
host, I guess I'm like, what doI want to say?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
oh yeah, wait.
No, what is that calledsurprise?
Co-host yeah, surprise,surprise, guest, surprise
co-host and like who knows whatwhat's gonna happen, you know,
once you have the baby, and like, yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
I don't hear a crying baby on the like this.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Maybe just this season is is over for now, but
there could be a future season,yes, um, and we've built like so
wow, so many amazing.
I don't want to make this likean episode of like crying, but
like we've done so much for thepodcast and for ourselves and
like as friends, yeah, and Ifeel like we have so much to be
(14:56):
proud of, like we don't have tolook at this as like a sad thing
.
I think it's like a big thingthat we've accomplished.
Like that's a hugeaccomplishment to run a podcast
for two full years, postingalmost every single week.
Like you know, this was goingto be our third year and most
people can't say that they'vedone that, and I'm proud of us.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
This would have been.
This would have been our fourthyear.
Wait what?
All of 2022, all of 2023, allof 2022.
Oh my God, like give us morecredit.
Fourth year, that's insane.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Yeah, this is going into year four.
I know Like how manyconversations we've had.
Like the bottom line is like,mindfully, moody was like so
healing for me and, I think, forus together, like just a space
for us to come and have theseconversations of like we're
going through this shit and thisis how we're kind of overcoming
it and healing from it and likeworking through all of the gunk
(15:51):
that comes up in like thisexperience of life, and it's
been so healing to like have itin this space to just talk and
connect and learn from eachother and grow, and I'm so
grateful for it me too.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
It's been such a gift , you know, a gift in so many
ways and I'm such a processorout loud.
So, like what this has done foryou know my spiritual journey,
my growth journey, like me,feeling supported you, you know,
by you, by myself, by thepeople that listen.
(16:26):
You know getting feedback frompeople that it helps them and
that they feel understood andseen.
And you know it's, it's such afantastic journey and I think
that we may be surprised in thefuture of where the journey goes
.
And I'm open, let me say myintention universe lead us.
(16:48):
Lead us where we're meant to be, lead us where we're meant to
go next.
You know, because you never know.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
It's like you think you have a plan of it's going to
go this way or that way, andit's like we really have no idea
where it could go.
What's that quote?
You think you have a plan andgod laughs at you or something.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Isn't that something, something like that?
Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly.
I mean I don't I I don't knowwhere.
I totally thought my life wasgoing to be at at this point,
but I mean it's better than Icould have ever expected, you
know.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
That's beautiful.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Yeah, how lucky to say that I know.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
So what you guys can expect from the podcast I'm
going to continue doing thepodcast every month.
I'll probably do a solo episode, one solo episode, and then I'm
going to bring on a guest, soyou can expect two episodes per
month.
I'll probably do a solo episode, one solo episode, and then I'm
going to bring on a guest, soyou can expect two episodes per
month.
I'm going to try to stick to it.
Like honestly, at this pointI'm like who knows, maybe I'm
going to try it.
(17:54):
I'm just being so transparent.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Like I might take a break too.
That's OK.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
That's OK.
You know it's going to beinteresting to try to operate it
without having you here.
But I definitely want to keepsomething going and like maybe
Sarah will come on when it feelsgood for her, um, but I'll
definitely want to have someguests on continuing to talk
about, like, spirituality,relationships, healing,
(18:21):
entrepreneurship, all the thingsthat we've been on and just
diving more into those.
So we're still cooking on thepodcast.
Don't leave us quite yet.
Um, yeah, what else?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Yeah, wow, I'm just, I'm just like feeling like, wow,
we've come so far.
You know, I'm just so proud ofus and I'm excited.
I'm excited for the future.
You know, um, I'm excited tosee what, what comes of
Mindfully Moody.
(18:58):
I'm excited to see what comesof your business, of my business
, of you know, like we have beentalking for years about how to
expand Mindfully Moody outsideof a podcast and build a more
concrete community, buildprograms and things.
You know we have built digitalproducts and courses and things
(19:19):
like that.
But you never know.
It's like we I just I, I don'tknow, as we're talking about
this and like I feel like some,like, like big things are gonna
happen.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
that's just what I always feel, like I just have to
always go with that you know,yeah, yeah, I mean I always had
thought of like Mindfully Moodyas a brand, like, yeah, I don't
know, the name is just too good.
My mom's always like you girls,that name is so good.
I actually just printed her ahat, so now I got to keep it
(19:49):
going.
She's repping the hat what isthat?
Out of her town?
But yeah, you never know whatthat could be.
And maybe that this you knowlike a relationship, sometimes
maybe space is needed forclarity.
You know, to find out what youwant, and maybe that this you
know like a relationship,sometimes maybe space is needed
for clarity.
Yeah, you know to find out whatyou want.
And maybe we do build somethingeven bigger, like it's like the
(20:14):
no contact situation.
If you go no contact in arelationship and then they
realize how much they it worked.
For me it's not going to be you.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
It worked for me in my relationship with my husband.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
No, but we can't go no contact you know, but like,
yeah, who knows this could be,there could be something even
bigger and better, just withthis space that's taken from it,
or you know?
Speaker 2 (20:39):
who knows what could come.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
I don't think that this is the end of me and you
with Mindfully Moody.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
I think that there's something bigger to come, but it
to be determined yeah, it'slike the end of an era, but with
the opening of a whole new era.
You know, because I mean mylife, like I am going through
such a massive transitionpersonally right now.
You know like the transitionfrom maiden to mother and like
(21:05):
changing all my DNA is changing,as I'm, you know, being
pregnant and gonna have a babyand I feel like for myself
there's gonna be this bigdeepening and blossoming of my
purpose and how I express it andhow I bring it to the world.
You know, and I am a person thathas always been passionate
(21:30):
about speaking.
I've never had that same kindof like fear.
Necessarily, as other peoplehave.
I have many other fears, butthat has never been like a key
fear of mine.
I feel like I've always like itfuels me to speak to people and
relate to people, whether it bein like a bigger group setting
(21:50):
or a more intimate group or oneon one, and, yeah, I just always
see this being like a part ofme.
That's why we started thepodcast, because we were like
this, we would love this.
We're just talking to eachother and processing about
what's going on in our lives,you know.
So I feel like that's that'snot going to be ever something
(22:12):
that I would lose passion for.
You know that would just beexpanding.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Yes, expanding the possibilities.
We are expanding thepossibilities.
We are expanding.
We are expanding, even thoughit may feel like it's like the
closing.
It's also like without theclosing you wouldn't have the
expansion.
So I'm grateful.
(22:38):
I'm grateful for you, I'mgrateful for the podcast and
like all of the healing thatwe've done and, yeah, I don't
know where to go from here.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
I know, I know maybe we just this.
This feels like a naturalending, like okay ending of the
episode, guys, not ending ourfriendship's done.
It's been fun oh my god, I'mjust kidding.
No, I, but you know what'scoming up to my mind now.

Happy New Year.
How we doing.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Hello, I can't believe it's 2025.
I'm going to be saying that forthe next like six months
because I still feel like it'snot going to resonate to me that
it's 2025.
I keep writing 2024 oneverything Same I'm like oh,
that's every year though youknow.
But yeah, it's crazy.
I feel like we haven't recordedin so long and it's been three
(01:08):
years since we started MindfullyMoody, which is just like wow,
wow, wow, wow, I'm just thinkingabout, like I'm in my new house
right now that I just movedinto, like all the different
places that I've recordedMindfully Moody in the last
three years because I've been inso many different places you
know, yeah, if you think aboutlike where we were when we
(01:32):
started this, like I'm thinkingI was like in my apartment in
Austin, like working atSpringshot.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Oh my gosh, like we were just such different people
then, such different people.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Then I know it's so crazy, it's so crazy.
I was what.
So when we first startedtalking about Mindfully Moody, I
was at home with my parents.
I remember in Naples, livingduring COVID, but then when we
first got up and running yeah, Iguess that would have been
(02:08):
where was I living at that time?
The fancy apartment in Oakland?
Yeah, yeah, that's what I justI always call it.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, the one with the floor-to-ceiling windows,
that one.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
And then, yeah, I moved to another place in
Oakland and then I moved toFlorida.
And then, yeah, I moved toanother place in Oakland and
then I moved to Florida and I'vebeen in three different places
recording since I've been inFlorida.
So five different apartmentsWow, well, four apartments in
one house that I've recorded in.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
We also like I remember, I feel like it was
that year that we started, sowhat?
It was 2022, right, yeah, let'scut off for it.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
It's like there is so many pros and I do think,
obviously, that the prosoutweigh the cons.
Like I never am actually goingto go back, but I feel that I
took so much shit for grantedwhen I did work in corporate and
I wish I could go back and belike it's not that bad.
You know what I mean?
(03:10):
Do you feel that way?
No, you're like it was that bad.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
No, it was that bad.
I just am like thinking aboutthe anxiety, Like just this for
example, you know it's 1030 on aWednesday and like we get to
like record in the middle of theday without like any stress.
Like I love that.
You know the free, the freedom,but you have to be OK with, if
you're fully committing to thatof not making shit, eating shit.
(03:36):
Like it's hard, it's it's.
I wish I would have known that.
Like so many people do sell thedream of, like you know, zero to
10 K in three months and likeI've been victim to that, I've
done that myself.
Like it's not easy.
I'm still here, like you know,two and a half years in, and
it's still a hustle.
(03:56):
Like I'm still haven't hit thegoals that I want.
Like it's, it's challenging.
And I would say, like all of asudden I'm getting this advice
call about work, but like get amentor.
Like if you can, like havesomebody that's doing what you
want to do, like just literallybe like, hey, I'll go work for
free for you so you canliterally jump timelines.
(04:17):
You know that's what I'm justthinking.
Like someone's already done it.
Just learn from somebody.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
I wish that I would have done that when I was
working in corporate, like if Iwould have went and said to like
a coach, you know like I'llwork for you for free for 10, 15
hours a week, you know, just tolike see how you are making
your money.
You know, because now it's likeyou think about mentorship and
(04:44):
it's like you have to paythousands and thousands and
thousands of dollars.
I mean people pay 10, 15, 20,25,000 to get a mentor these
days.
You know.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Yeah, whatever happened to the good old free
mentor?
I got a mentor Like someone's,like do you have a mentor?
And it's like that costs a lotof money 5,000, $10,000.
I want to find a free mentor,someone that just kind of still
their heart wants to show me theropes, I know, wouldn't that be
nice yeah.
I mean, I would be a mentor tosomeone that's listening.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I was just going to say that I was just going to say
that, like I would absolutelymentor, I mean I'm not going to
give you like all the freakingtime, like when you pay for it
you know you're getting moreaccess.
But yeah, I mean it's just it'sit's a hustle, it's a challenge
, you know.
I mean I think about myparents' business.
Like you know, that Rez and Iare taking over.
(05:34):
I mean they took, like they'vebeen in business almost 20 years
, so I mean they took eight to10 years to hit their stride.
Yeah, yeah, you know, I mean ittakes time.
It's like this did not growinto something overnight, you
know, and you know it takes.
(05:57):
A certain type of business and Ilove that there's so much out
there on the Internet, you know,from people that are in the
space of us is like you can makemillions of dollars a year.
But I do think that that is avery, very, very, very, very,
very, very, very, very smallpercentage of people that are
making that much money.
You know, and in a lot ofbusinesses it can be challenging
(06:18):
to to scale to that that level.
You know.
Yeah, but it's also hard toscale and be like doing
something that you're passionateabout, so like me doing
retreats.
You know I'm so deeplypassionate about that.
Is that going to make memillions of dollars?
No, it's not, because otherwiseI would have to go out of
(06:40):
integrity to charge people somuch money that it wouldn't be
accessible to anyone other than0.5% of the population.
You know.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, no, totally I mean it.
I don't.
You guys are probably likewhere is this episode going, but
I feel like this is like stuffthat's on our heart.
Yeah, that's what I feel too.
I just did a TikTok on that of,like you know, everyone wants
to be at this point immediatelyand it's like look at the
(07:15):
Saharas of the world, right,like she started her YouTube
channel in like 2016.
Like almost 30.
They started, I don't know,know, maybe over five years ago,
like manifestation babe.
Like she started 10.
She's been doing this for 10years.
So, like these people, it'slike we, we want their lives.
We're like add, you know,admiring them.
(07:35):
Yet they've put in like yearsand years and years of work.
So, anyways, yeah, I think it'sit.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
It's deciding where you want to put in the work,
what feels most aligned to you,and like following that path
(08:07):
phases of life where, like youhave the time and the energy to
hustle, you know to bededicating, you know, 50, 60
hours a week to working, or evenwhen you're an entrepreneur.
It's like, even if you're notactively working for 50 to 60
hours a week, which most peopleprobably are, but you're
thinking about it yeah, at leastthat often, if not, you know,
because it's on your mind Like Imean, I wake up thinking about
(08:28):
how I'm going to make more money, or like what I need to do for
the day, or what work thing youknow.
Like that stays on my mind sooften.
But then other things startarising in your life, like me
being pregnant, and it's likeyou have to slow down the hustle
, you know, and you go into adifferent transition where it's
(08:50):
like I can't, I mean I'mstruggling to work 40 hours a
week at this point, you know.
So, um, and I just really I'mlike, am I gonna?
As I just said that I'm like Iwant to be an advocate for
pregnant women not working, um,because it's so hard, you know,
(09:13):
it's like I don't really likesometimes I, I will get like the
inspiration of like okay, howam I gonna expand my, my
businesses?
But a lot of times I'm like howam I gonna to expand my
businesses?
But a lot of times I'm like howam I going to fucking make it
through the day?
Speaker 1 (09:25):
You know like how am.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
I going to get out of bed or whatever you know.
So it's brought me into thisdifferent phase in my life where
I've had to just re-evaluate alot of ways that I spend my time
.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yeah, yeah, and I think it's good to have those
moments, I mean, obviously, withyou being in the pregnancy.
There's so much going likealready going on in your
internal world, and taking anaudit of like your external
world is critical, of like, okay, what I have this much energy
(09:59):
in my day, in my life, like,where do I want to be spending
my energy?
What's going to put me in thebest position for my son, like
my future family, you know, andI think that's good, whether
people are pregnant or startinga new job or moving to a new
city.
Like totally taking an audit onyour life and being like, okay,
(10:19):
what am I currently focusing on?
What is maybe draining myenergy?
How can I reclaim parts of meto align to the person that I
want to be Like?
I think having a daily practiceof that is like what feels good.
Where do I want to put moreenergy?
Where, you know, because things, yeah, things take our, our
(10:42):
energy and it's like,subconsciously sometimes too, of
like, okay, I'm having thishuge energy lake with health
stuff, you know, and it's like,how can that?
I don't want that energy to gogo there and it's like, probably
, like a huge percentage of myenergy in the day is going
towards that thing, so yeah,yeah that also, just to say all
(11:06):
that we get into.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Yes, I have a little announcement for my mindfully
listeners.
I'm so serious, okay.
Also, I feel like this is notsurprising because many people
do this.
You know, I am going to take abreak from podcasting.
I'm taking a break from a lotof things in my life actually,
(11:36):
in order to just focus.
I'm almost in my thirdtrimester and I am putting a lot
of my energy now into I meanone, resting, two, being able to
sustain, you know, mybusinesses outside of Mindfully
Moody, and then also like, intopreparing for birth.
I'm going to do a home birthand there's a lot of like mental
(12:02):
, physical preparation that isgoing into that for me.
So I am going to take a breakfrom Mindfully Moody.
So sadly and it does like, as Isay that like, of course, it
makes me so sad because I loverecording, I love being with
Hannah, I love sharing what ison our hearts, the things that
(12:25):
we love to do, the things thatwe've learned.
I mean the whole reason westarted this podcast is to help
people with all of the tools andthings that we have learned on
our journeys, and that's a bigpart of my purpose and passion.
I mean it is my purpose andpassion, like as a coach, as a
(12:46):
facilitator, and yeah, it's ahard decision for me.
It was a really hard decisionfor me, but I think it's the
right decision for me.
So it is an undetermined amountof time, but really do.
As I'm saying this, I'm like Iwill be back like it's not
(13:09):
goodbye, it's see you later.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Yes, it's see you later.
Uh, yeah, this, I mean we'vebeen like sitting on this for
like the past month, so there'sbeen a lot of like processing
and like conversations around it, but like one, obviously, like
it was hard to take it in atfirst, but like such a beautiful
(13:32):
example you are to like chooseyourself above all other things
and, like you know, even thoughit's hard to to come to like I'm
proud of you for that you know.
Even though it's hard to cometo, like I'm proud of you for
that, you know, because there'sselfish things that come up of
like oh, I mean, just keepMindfully Moody going, but like
end of the day, like you'rehaving a freaking baby and you
need to reclaim your energy, andlike make sure that you're like
(13:55):
top notch for all of that.
And I agree, like I think,mindfully moody, like well,
you're, you're, I think you'llstill come on.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
I think that will.
Yes, I would love you know whoknows guest guest, uh, yeah,
host, I guess I'm like, what doI want to say?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
oh yeah, wait.
No, what is that calledsurprise?
Co-host yeah, surprise,surprise, guest, surprise
co-host and like who knows whatwhat's gonna happen, you know,
once you have the baby, and like, yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
I don't hear a crying baby on the like this.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Maybe just this season is is over for now, but
there could be a future season,yes, um, and we've built like so
wow, so many amazing.
I don't want to make this likean episode of like crying, but
like we've done so much for thepodcast and for ourselves and
like as friends, yeah, and Ifeel like we have so much to be
(14:56):
proud of, like we don't have tolook at this as like a sad thing
.
I think it's like a big thingthat we've accomplished.
Like that's a hugeaccomplishment to run a podcast
for two full years, postingalmost every single week.
Like you know, this was goingto be our third year and most
people can't say that they'vedone that, and I'm proud of us.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
This would have been.
This would have been our fourthyear.
Wait what?
All of 2022, all of 2023, allof 2022.
Oh my God, like give us morecredit.
Fourth year, that's insane.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
Yeah, this is going into year four.
I know Like how manyconversations we've had.
Like the bottom line is like,mindfully, moody was like so
healing for me and, I think, forus together, like just a space
for us to come and have theseconversations of like we're
going through this shit and thisis how we're kind of overcoming
it and healing from it and likeworking through all of the gunk
(15:51):
that comes up in like thisexperience of life, and it's
been so healing to like have itin this space to just talk and
connect and learn from eachother and grow, and I'm so
grateful for it me too.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
It's been such a gift , you know, a gift in so many
ways and I'm such a processorout loud.
So, like what this has done foryou know my spiritual journey,
my growth journey, like me,feeling supported you, you know,
by you, by myself, by thepeople that listen.
(16:26):
You know getting feedback frompeople that it helps them and
that they feel understood andseen.
And you know it's, it's such afantastic journey and I think
that we may be surprised in thefuture of where the journey goes
.
And I'm open, let me say myintention universe lead us.
(16:48):
Lead us where we're meant to be, lead us where we're meant to
go next.
You know, because you never know.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
It's like you think you have a plan of it's going to
go this way or that way, andit's like we really have no idea
where it could go.
What's that quote?
You think you have a plan andgod laughs at you or something.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
Isn't that something, something like that?
Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly.
I mean I don't I I don't knowwhere.
I totally thought my life wasgoing to be at at this point,
but I mean it's better than Icould have ever expected, you
know.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
That's beautiful.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Yeah, how lucky to say that I know.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
So what you guys can expect from the podcast I'm
going to continue doing thepodcast every month.
I'll probably do a solo episode, one solo episode, and then I'm
going to bring on a guest, soyou can expect two episodes per
month.
I'll probably do a solo episode, one solo episode, and then I'm
going to bring on a guest, soyou can expect two episodes per
month.
I'm going to try to stick to it.
Like honestly, at this pointI'm like who knows, maybe I'm
going to try it.
(17:54):
I'm just being so transparent.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Like I might take a break too.
That's OK.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
That's OK.
You know it's going to beinteresting to try to operate it
without having you here.
But I definitely want to keepsomething going and like maybe
Sarah will come on when it feelsgood for her, um, but I'll
definitely want to have someguests on continuing to talk
about, like, spirituality,relationships, healing,
(18:21):
entrepreneurship, all the thingsthat we've been on and just
diving more into those.
So we're still cooking on thepodcast.
Don't leave us quite yet.
Um, yeah, what else?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Yeah, wow, I'm just, I'm just like feeling like, wow,
we've come so far.
You know, I'm just so proud ofus and I'm excited.
I'm excited for the future.
You know, um, I'm excited tosee what, what comes of
Mindfully Moody.
(18:58):
I'm excited to see what comesof your business, of my business
, of you know, like we have beentalking for years about how to
expand Mindfully Moody outsideof a podcast and build a more
concrete community, buildprograms and things.
You know we have built digitalproducts and courses and things
(19:19):
like that.
But you never know.
It's like we I just I, I don'tknow, as we're talking about
this and like I feel like some,like, like big things are gonna
happen.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
that's just what I always feel, like I just have to
always go with that you know,yeah, yeah, I mean I always had
thought of like Mindfully Moodyas a brand, like, yeah, I don't
know, the name is just too good.
My mom's always like you girls,that name is so good.
I actually just printed her ahat, so now I got to keep it
(19:49):
going.
She's repping the hat what isthat?
Out of her town?
But yeah, you never know whatthat could be.
And maybe that this you knowlike a relationship, sometimes
maybe space is needed forclarity.
You know, to find out what youwant, and maybe that this you
know like a relationship,sometimes maybe space is needed
for clarity.
Yeah, you know to find out whatyou want.
And maybe we do build somethingeven bigger, like it's like the
(20:14):
no contact situation.
If you go no contact in arelationship and then they
realize how much they it worked.
For me it's not going to be you.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
It worked for me in my relationship with my husband.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
No, but we can't go no contact you know, but like,
yeah, who knows this could be,there could be something even
bigger and better, just withthis space that's taken from it,
or you know?
Speaker 2 (20:39):
who knows what could come.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
I don't think that this is the end of me and you
with Mindfully Moody.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
I think that there's something bigger to come, but it
to be determined yeah, it'slike the end of an era, but with
the opening of a whole new era.
You know, because I mean mylife, like I am going through
such a massive transitionpersonally right now.
You know like the transitionfrom maiden to mother and like
(21:05):
changing all my DNA is changing,as I'm, you know, being
pregnant and gonna have a babyand I feel like for myself
there's gonna be this bigdeepening and blossoming of my
purpose and how I express it andhow I bring it to the world.
You know, and I am a person thathas always been passionate
(21:30):
about speaking.
I've never had that same kindof like fear.
Necessarily, as other peoplehave.
I have many other fears, butthat has never been like a key
fear of mine.
I feel like I've always like itfuels me to speak to people and
relate to people, whether it bein like a bigger group setting
(21:50):
or a more intimate group or oneon one, and, yeah, I just always
see this being like a part ofme.
That's why we started thepodcast, because we were like
this, we would love this.
We're just talking to eachother and processing about
what's going on in our lives,you know.
So I feel like that's that'snot going to be ever something
(22:12):
that I would lose passion for.
You know that would just beexpanding.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Yes, expanding the possibilities.
We are expanding thepossibilities.
We are expanding.
We are expanding, even thoughit may feel like it's like the
closing.
It's also like without theclosing you wouldn't have the
expansion.
So I'm grateful.
(22:38):
I'm grateful for you, I'mgrateful for the podcast and
like all of the healing thatwe've done and, yeah, I don't
know where to go from here.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
I know, I know maybe we just this.
This feels like a naturalending, like okay ending of the
episode, guys, not ending ourfriendship's done.
It's been fun oh my god, I'mjust kidding.
No, I, but you know what'scoming up to my mind now.
I like, um, no, actually I'lltell you after the end.
(23:11):
On that note, we're gonna be.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
