With great power with great power comes great responsibility being young avatar, okay, Hey

0:21  
guys,

0:22  
what's up? Welcome Welcome, welcome welcome to like a new week or like it's the middle of the week, but I did that on purpose but hey guys what's up and see I started the day with like super high vibes and then now they're kind of like,

0:37  
still high but like they're kind of like a lower octave but I this is a very important episode and I know that trust me you will get the jewels that you came for here and you'll send this to a friend me with the hypnosis you will send this to a friend who will find value in it because that is what good friends do for a child. Especially like okay, I've been off social for like a week now and I feel like I missed a lot and it's okay because I don't really care because it's like fake eyelashes going on before we like start talking about the reasons why why why why the reasons why we're here. Something that recently just like shook me this delta variant situation interesting, right? Do you guys think we're gonna be like locked out of travel? Like, I don't know, that would make me super sad now. Oh, why I said great. freedom comes with great responsibility. Good question. Thanks for asking. It's because when you have the freedom to do absolutely anything you want work from anywhere you want, do anything you want, you have the responsibility to hone in on that freedom. It's actually a blessing. But at the same time that blessing needs its own reprieve and like breaks worked in and like yeah, just feeling I just need a change of scenery that isn't signing a lease. Okay, so how to navigate post grad while being hot and centered. I got you relax. first tip is relax. It's not really that big of a deal. Calm down whatever you think is a big deal. It's really not a big deal. It's you're just making it a big deal because you think that it should be a big deal. Go pick something else do groceries or something and decide between a portobello mushroom and I should talk to you mushroom try that and take your mind off of the fact that you have finished a graduate you've finished a program and now you're in the world so take that whether you're hustling for like your first opportunity or you're in your first opportunity it don't matter relax it's all relative you'll see soon enough that it it's cool but it's doesn't matter it's relative you're always you next tip Don't rush Don't rush slot dash no but really don't rush like you don't have to get the couch because you need to couch so chaotic but you don't have to do it literally nowhere does it say you have to do it there's nothing you have to do you are young right now are you are you doesn't matter grow at your actual ages you're young relax cool your jets calm Don't rush Don't rush Don't rush Don't rush I know it's easy to go into like fix it mode. Because it gives you something to do or to keep your mind busy while you're in this like weird transitional time in the middle of a pandemic mind you like I still consider ourselves in a pandemic and I don't think we get out anytime soon. Sorry bad enjoy it Don't rush Don't rush you want to get into fix it mode but you have to be cute about getting it into fixing mode because this isn't just how to survive post grad This is how to delete well being hold and centered to understand like it's it's different there's levels to this post grad lifestyle trust me I understand I know this Yeah, and like friendships for the most part will be like okay, I guess allow for some drifting you'll be a little more hands off as time continues but that doesn't mean you love your friends any less the group chat is still flames that still take in. You're still getting those things but allow space for growth you're going you're growing as people like it's okay there are more people to meet. Calm down. I promise you there is no shortage. Whatever like thing is you can make up in your mind but like there's a sort of shortage there a nurse shortage honey came in Shea shortage shortage was I have like this list and it's like weird because I'm not a person who like plans out episodes because then it feels like less personable for us. And we're just like not long ago I switched on my computer and I don't know how I didn't mean to do that. I didn't mean to do that. Yeah, enjoy the messiness, get to know yourself. Getting to Know yourself is a huge one often and we do it by way of like relationships and stuff, but like really get to know yourself.

5:18  
However you can away from social media away from other people. You don't have to craft your new post grad identity Now you don't have to be who you were post grad either. You don't have to be who you were like, while you before you were post grad, either. Enjoy the messiness. Like vision boards are your friend scrap that vision board if you want to, like Do you know how many times they make and remake a vision board based on like the vibration that I'm standing in? Like, I have a new one right now that I made two days ago, because I was like, Oh, girl, scratch the blueprint, I took a huge one off of my wall. Because I had a feeling that I had to take it down. Like you can't take anything too seriously. And if you do something, you bruv no one's holding a machine or a Glock to your head to do anything. Okay, this is about you. This is your life. You set the pace you set the cadence. The life brings its circumstances but you bring the energy please don't hate me after this. life brings the circumstances but you bring yourself your perspective and your trust in the process because girlie what else or boy, what else do you have to bring to the table? If not those things? That being one thing. Chad playing cool. Okay. Another big thing is that like being temporarily uninspired, right? isn't being forever uninspired. There's no state that as permanent as water permanent, okay, we be freezing it its nose, it evaporates, it comes back down, we get new water. Do you guys think we get new water? I'll research that actually. Because how does water generate? Do you think all the water we have came from the ocean? That's a really good question, actually. Because I think like that is a huge thing. Actually. Do we have all the water that we need? Like we have all the water that we need? But can we make more water? Now this is stressful? Hold on. Can you make more water? We have a set amount of water to the amount of water on earth this constant. Does that account for the water in our bodies? Oh, you see, do you see what his get what we're getting into? We're getting into weird territory because think of all the people that are buried six feet under. Okay. I don't want to think about that. That's ridiculous. That's crazy. That's insane. Actually, if you think about it, like all the waters constant, we're just floating in a fishbowl at this point. So if you're concerned about something that doesn't matter, girl, you're in a fishbowl child, you're in a fishbowl like it don't matter. It don't really don't. I hope this makes you feel better, or at least makes you feel better because it makes me feel better because I was sitting here like basically doing mental gymnastics trying to figure out my life while sitting in one spot. So there's that. vision boards are your friend we said that being temporarily uninspired isn't forever uninspired. Call your loved ones as often as you can. Like my mom always says like, would she do moody kreizel which is in my language, you're still a baby, you're still very small. So calm down. You're not that old. You could be 30 you're not that old. You could be 40 you're not that old. There's still people who are older than you. Okay, like any given point, there's still people who are older than you unless you're the oldest person on earth in which case you have the wisdom and the discernment to understand that ages but a number. So at any point in any way. You're still very tiny cheating would Leakey Quadro, so come down, but I'm not yelling at you. I'm yelling for you. Because again, I love you so much. And I love you dearly. And I just think you guys should just like me included, like, I'm talking to myself, like I'm doing this for myself, for you guys.

9:26  
And I think the biggest one is like if you really are feeling existential, all jokes aside. This is not your last chapter, regardless of what you're doing in it. You know what I mean? If it was your last chapter, you'd be facing death, in which case, all right, you're still going to benefit more if you just live your life if that's coming sooner rather than later. But for those who it's coming later, as is could be designed for you or the former.

9:57  
It's just It's okay. Or hey, like This is not your last chapter. Things are getting better. Every day in every way you are not behind you're not late. You're not anything you are exactly where you need to be. So you can bloom where you are planted and I love you. Okay.

10:16  
Wow, I was just talking to myself,

10:18  
where you are planted you are there for a reason. You are literally a puzzle piece in this current moment in time and you will soon transform or you've begun to transform, you know, put on your new suit to fit into a new puzzle soon enough, but until then, you're supposed to be in this moment, for reasons that you don't really need explanations to. They are just the reasons this isn't the end. This is the beginning. It's just starting. That's it. Just starting I don't care how old you are and get her young your it is just started. Nothing is ending right now.

10:51  
Whenever something ends, something starts just like there are two sides to a coin just like there's night and day. endings and beginnings go hand in hand.

11:01  
It's always been that way. Always be that way. Don't worry too deeply about much. I love you guys really like I'm spending so much energy to anyone listening right now. Love you again.
