00:00:12.215 --> 00:00:19.568

00:00:19.568 --> 00:00:27.789

00:00:27.789 --> 00:00:34.387

Hope you enjoy this episode of Organized Chaos.

00:00:37.228 --> 00:00:38.947
Now on to the show.

00:00:40.503 --> 00:00:42.759
I have a special guest here today.

00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:47.389
We're actually doing another live coaching session and we have Shelly here with us.

00:00:47.389 --> 00:00:48.110
Welcome, shelly.

00:00:48.110 --> 00:01:11.799
Well, thank you, I'm glad to be here, yeah, and I am so happy that you're here with us because, you know, we've known Shelly for a really long time and she is amazing at what she does, and sometimes we just need help working through certain issues or struggles that are kind of keeping us from moving forward.

00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:21.611
So ask Shelly to come on here so we can help her through whatever it is that she wants to work through and see if it relates with all of you.

00:01:21.611 --> 00:01:25.671
So, shelly, what is something that you want to work through today?

00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:42.986
I'm going to have to say it's my consistency in actually it's my business, but in my health as well Like I'm just kind of all over the place right now and my consistency in my habits and routines has kind of gone out the window.

00:01:44.370 --> 00:01:46.623
Okay, so tell me a little bit more about that, describe that to me.

00:01:47.587 --> 00:01:49.114
Well, we do have a lot going on.

00:01:49.114 --> 00:01:51.221
We're selling our house and we're moving and such.

00:01:51.221 --> 00:01:55.159
So I've been getting to bed later so I'm not getting up and doing my morning routine.

00:01:55.159 --> 00:02:00.189
So I haven't worked out in probably I'm going to say three weeks, maybe longer.

00:02:00.189 --> 00:02:06.331
I'm kind of sporadic working on my business as well and I have very big goals for both.

00:02:06.331 --> 00:02:12.231
So trying to get back into habits and routines is something I'm struggling with right now.

00:02:13.539 --> 00:02:18.231
Okay, and when was the last time you, you know, had this thought of?

00:02:18.231 --> 00:02:20.407
I'm having trouble with my consistency here.

00:02:21.379 --> 00:02:26.461
I can say probably this morning, because I did not set my alarm early enough to get up and work out.

00:02:27.864 --> 00:02:31.950
Okay, so you didn't set your alarm to get up and work out.

00:02:34.495 --> 00:02:38.362
Okay, I nearly give myself enough time to do that.

00:02:38.362 --> 00:02:39.405
I didn't even.

00:02:39.405 --> 00:02:44.364
Actually, I didn't give myself enough time to even, like I normally do, a social media post every morning.

00:02:44.364 --> 00:02:50.100
And I didn't do that either because I set my alarm such that I had just enough time to get ready for work.

00:02:51.644 --> 00:02:59.508
Okay, so this morning you didn't give yourself enough time, set your alarm to be able to work out and work on your business.

00:03:00.191 --> 00:03:00.431
Is that?

00:03:00.472 --> 00:03:01.375
right, yeah, okay.

00:03:01.375 --> 00:03:03.040
So what's the problem with that?

00:03:04.784 --> 00:03:08.353
I am not getting any closer to my goals if I'm not doing the actions.

00:03:11.300 --> 00:03:13.889
Okay, tell me a little bit more about that.

00:03:15.381 --> 00:03:19.010
Well, I have a fairly big goal with my business.

00:03:19.010 --> 00:03:27.763
I work full time and I want to be able to retire in probably the three to five year range to be able to help people full-time.

00:03:27.763 --> 00:03:40.283
I'm not actually retiring, I'm just retiring from my full-time job and I want to be able to help people in the capacity of their health, wellness and mental health full-time.

00:03:40.283 --> 00:03:46.693
And if I'm not working on my business, I'm not getting any closer to the goal.

00:03:46.693 --> 00:03:48.302
And same with my health and wellness.

00:03:48.302 --> 00:03:54.745
I have a pretty big weight loss goal right now and if I'm not doing the actions, it's not going to happen.

00:03:55.927 --> 00:04:01.401
Okay, and as your are your personal goals and your business goals related.

00:04:02.844 --> 00:04:22.502
They are because I am a health and wellness coach, I'm a nutritionist and if I am not following the things that I want my clients to follow, that kind of has a bit of a trust issue there that I need to be able to show that I'm doing the same actions that I'm asking my clients to do.

00:04:23.805 --> 00:04:24.105
Okay.

00:04:24.105 --> 00:04:30.002
So there's a couple of things here, because you kind of started off with you know you're.

00:04:30.002 --> 00:04:38.526
You kind of have a story about you're not getting closer to your goals because having some problems with consistency.

00:04:38.526 --> 00:04:59.220
But the other thing and why I asked you if your health goals were related to your business goals was because because you're having inconsistency or issues with consistency with both, I wanted to see how those were related and really kind of showing others, like giving them a little bit more context.

00:04:59.220 --> 00:05:06.593
So you did mention something about you know being able to basically model the behavior right.

00:05:06.593 --> 00:05:24.737
Right, so if you're not able to be consistent with your personal and your business goals, what do you feel that is showing your followers, your clients, potential clients?

00:05:26.908 --> 00:05:43.427
showing your followers, your clients, potential clients, that if I'm not willing to do the work, why would they be willing and they would like, if it was me, I would go to someone that was being very consistent and then I could work and learn from them.

00:05:43.427 --> 00:05:45.932
So it's not getting me any clients by not modeling that behavior.

00:05:48.759 --> 00:06:00.576
Okay, so just typing this up so I can kind of you know, show you what what is happening here.

00:06:00.576 --> 00:06:12.593
So you know, this morning you didn't give yourself enough time to you know, work out and focus on your health and wellness business.

00:06:12.593 --> 00:06:23.125
And the story that you're telling yourself is if I'm not willing to do the work, I'm not going to get clients because I'm not modeling the behavior.

00:06:23.125 --> 00:06:26.112
So how does that make you feel?

00:06:28.262 --> 00:06:30.769
It actually makes me feel frustrated with myself.

00:06:32.661 --> 00:06:36.791
Okay, and when you felt frustrated this morning, what did you do?

00:06:41.761 --> 00:06:45.331
I well, I didn't work on my business and I didn't work on my health.

00:06:45.331 --> 00:06:52.634
I went to the kitchen and had, I had a shower and I had my coffee and played some games and I went to work.

00:06:52.634 --> 00:07:03.473
I didn't even I was kind of beating myself up a little bit I had a conversation with my husband about it and just went on my day.

00:07:03.473 --> 00:07:08.430
I didn't try, even attempt to do any of the work that I knew I should be doing.

00:07:10.372 --> 00:07:13.247
Okay, and what did you keep yourself from doing?

00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:21.173
I did not do a social media post that I normally try and do in the morning.

00:07:21.173 --> 00:07:26.110
I didn't try and do even 15 minutes of workout.

00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:36.625
Okay, and what were some of the thoughts that you, you said you were kind of beating yourself up like describe that to me.

00:07:36.625 --> 00:07:38.529
What were some of the thoughts that were going on?

00:07:40.379 --> 00:07:52.632
Um, I was telling myself, I know better because I have been in the health and wellness industry for a really long time and I know that in order to reach my goals, I should be doing the action.

00:07:52.632 --> 00:07:56.069
But I just I'm not.

00:07:56.069 --> 00:07:58.869
And I'm trying to figure out why I'm not.

00:07:58.869 --> 00:08:05.812
I feel like I'm kind of in a rat race, like circle and tail kind of thing.

00:08:05.812 --> 00:08:15.470
Yeah, because I am, I'm not working out, so I'm tired, kind of they all with the fatigue.

00:08:15.470 --> 00:08:22.201
I'm not, um, making myself keep telling myself okay, well, you need rest.

00:08:22.201 --> 00:08:24.084
That's why I set my alarm differently.

00:08:24.084 --> 00:08:30.295
But then I'm still not, even later on in the day, trying to make attempts to do it.

00:08:30.295 --> 00:08:36.855
If my morning's messed up, it seems it's messing up my whole day.

00:08:36.855 --> 00:08:38.919
And then I beat myself up because I know better.

00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:39.059
Okay.

00:08:40.701 --> 00:08:53.196
So let me bring you back to the top, just so I can describe kind of how this thought process is happening and then what it's ultimately manifesting in, and I'll ask you that at the end.

00:08:53.196 --> 00:09:11.155
So this morning you didn't give yourself enough time to work on your health and wellness business and to focus on yourself like working out, and the thought that was going through your mind was I'm not getting closer or I'm sorry, I'm not willing to do the work.

00:09:11.155 --> 00:09:16.134
If I'm not willing to do the work, I'm not getting, I'm not going to get any clients right.

00:09:16.134 --> 00:09:24.234
And you felt frustrated and the actions that you took were you didn't work on your business, you didn't work on your health.

00:09:24.234 --> 00:09:27.625
You said you played games and then kind of went to work.

00:09:28.489 --> 00:09:37.801
You started beating yourself up and that kind of looked like telling yourself that I know better and I should be doing these actions.

00:09:37.801 --> 00:09:46.394
And you kind of had this internal battle going on of I know what I need to be doing, but I don't know why I'm not doing it Right.

00:09:46.394 --> 00:09:55.875
And then you didn't attempt to do work afterwards or even do a social media post or even 15 minutes of a workout.

00:09:55.875 --> 00:10:02.052
So you kind of knew that maybe there was a little bit you can do at least, but you didn't do that.

00:10:02.052 --> 00:10:06.370
So what do you think you're manifesting with these?

00:10:07.980 --> 00:10:11.386
I am manifesting that I'm not getting any closer to my goals.

00:10:14.212 --> 00:10:23.274
Yeah, and that was another story you had, right, because we will have multiple stories that kind of funnel into this.

00:10:23.274 --> 00:10:31.840
But I wanted to pinpoint kind of like a particular story because that can kind of lead us in different directions.

00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:39.379
It's still kind of in like head voice space, right, like you're, like man, I'm not going to get closer to my goals.

00:10:39.379 --> 00:10:46.946
And then you're thinking like, well, I should be modeling the behavior, I'm not willing to do the work, like how am I going to help my clients?

00:10:46.946 --> 00:10:48.176
How am I going to find clients?

00:10:48.176 --> 00:10:57.095
Right, so it keeps you in this cycle of, you know, not moving forward, like not getting closer to your goals.

00:10:57.095 --> 00:10:58.160
So they're different stories.

00:10:58.160 --> 00:10:59.562
They're different stories.

00:10:59.981 --> 00:11:09.368
However, this kind of seems to be related to you feeling like, maybe this is a busy season, you're moving, there's things going on.

00:11:09.368 --> 00:11:22.636
Even though you feel like, well, maybe there's a little bit I can do, you still can't get yourself to do that, because you are focusing on the story of, well, if I'm not willing to do the work, I'm not getting clients.

00:11:22.636 --> 00:11:36.620
And it's kind of like we go with an all or nothing mentality in this case, because even you had some thoughts about, well, maybe I can do 15 minutes of a workout, or maybe I could do a little bit of this, right.

00:11:36.620 --> 00:11:52.730
So there's always kind of like this, these thoughts that pop up, that kind of give you a little bit of grace, where it's like, well, maybe I can do this, but then you know there's a pushback, right, that's that internal battle that's going on and like keeping you in the rat race, right.

00:11:52.730 --> 00:11:53.332
Right?

00:11:55.381 --> 00:12:13.452
So, in order for you to be able to even work on like the consistency piece, right, because there is some inconsistency here, and we all have those moments where you know we're not, we're not perfect, we're not always going to be like these superstars of you know, like habits and sticking with our habits.

00:12:13.452 --> 00:12:33.594
But you know, there are still those moments where, like it peaks a little bit, where you're like, well, maybe I can do just a little bit, because sometimes it's really like the small actions that really add up, right, but so kind of getting out of this like all or nothing mentality might be the way to go for you.

00:12:33.594 --> 00:12:46.105
So what I want to do is I want to see what, why it is that it's important for you to be able to not only work on your business but work on your personal health.

00:12:46.105 --> 00:12:48.311
Why is that important to you?

00:12:51.201 --> 00:12:57.341
They both actually relate to my family and, like for my health, I want to be around for my children.

00:12:57.341 --> 00:12:59.544
They're 14 and 16.

00:12:59.544 --> 00:13:07.970
So they've got a ways to go in their life and I want to, you know, meet my grandchildren and and such, and then for my business goals.

00:13:07.970 --> 00:13:23.953
They're also related to the my family, and that I want to give them a good life and have trips and things like that um covered and paid for and have me kind of more available because I'm working full time and have the business on the side.

00:13:23.953 --> 00:13:33.466
So I want to be able to have a flexible job to be able to do things with them and such in the summertime, especially when they're off school.

00:13:35.491 --> 00:13:39.321
Yeah, so there there are things that you want to do.

00:13:39.321 --> 00:13:42.870
You know you want to be around for your kids, right, when they get older.

00:13:42.870 --> 00:13:50.283
You know you want to have, like a you know good health in order to achieve that, and then you want to give your family a good life.

00:13:50.283 --> 00:13:56.653
What is a thought that you can have that can remind you of this?

00:13:56.653 --> 00:14:03.594
That will then actually drive you to take the actions that you want to take?

00:14:07.780 --> 00:14:25.011
I know I can make a better life for us by by both reaching my health goals and my business goals and being able to do the things that we want to do.

00:14:29.821 --> 00:14:32.129
What's one particular thing you would want to do?

00:14:34.980 --> 00:14:49.504
We as a family want to travel to someplace once a year, like an all-inclusive destination, something like that, or Europe and in order to be able to do these things, I need to be in good health.

00:14:49.504 --> 00:14:57.511
There's a lot of walking and such in the places that we want to go and I want to be able to afford it, so travel is definitely something that is on our radar.

00:14:59.681 --> 00:14:59.921
Okay.

00:14:59.921 --> 00:15:07.057
So what I, what I wrote here, you can tell me what you think and try it on for size.

00:15:07.057 --> 00:15:11.427
Okay, because sometimes you know the, the thoughts that we want to elevate.

00:15:11.427 --> 00:15:27.355
We, we really truly want to want it to come from ourselves right, and we want to truly believe it, because when we truly believe it then we can take the actions that align with that belief.

00:15:27.355 --> 00:15:33.673
If we don't really believe it, then it's going to be really hard to be able to align that right.

00:15:33.673 --> 00:15:37.490
It's going to be more a forced action or misaligned action.

00:15:37.490 --> 00:15:45.774
So I wrote here I know I can make a better life by reaching my health and business goals to be able to travel with my family.

00:15:45.774 --> 00:15:48.525
How does that make you feel?

00:15:50.760 --> 00:15:59.360
That actually brings me some excitement that I'm able to provide that and have the kids look forward to a trip every year.

00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:06.494
We took them on a trip a few years ago and they were they still talk about it to this day like having those experiences with them.

00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:15.022
It just brings me a lot of joy.

00:16:15.022 --> 00:16:19.770
Yeah, so you already have this, this experience where you know what it's like and you know how it feels, to be able to provide that.

00:16:20.331 --> 00:16:23.874
So you know, the next time this happens where you know we we won't change the facts there's going to be able to provide that.

00:16:23.874 --> 00:16:36.751
So you know, the next time this happens where you know we won't change the facts, there's going to be a day where you don't give yourself enough time to be able to do some of your health and fitness activities or work on your business.

00:16:36.751 --> 00:16:47.042
But I want you to think about this particular story that you have now, and this will be a reminder of what you can do when these moments happen again.

00:16:47.042 --> 00:16:58.365
So, like you know, like we said, I know I can make a better life by reaching my health and business goals to be able to travel with my family, right, and that makes you feel excited.

00:16:58.365 --> 00:17:05.330
So, when you're feeling excited, what are some of the actions that you take, given that the facts haven't changed?

00:17:07.472 --> 00:17:30.785
But because I know that I can get to my end result by taking those actions and it makes me excited to know that at the end, I'm going to be able to take the kids on a really good trip.

00:17:31.684 --> 00:17:32.666
And what else would you be doing?

00:17:32.666 --> 00:17:40.660
So you'll be thinking, okay, I'm going to be looking forward to actually doing the work and the exercise, even if there's not a lot of time.

00:17:40.660 --> 00:17:44.670
Right, the work and the exercise even if there's not a lot of time.

00:17:44.670 --> 00:17:44.789
Right.

00:17:44.789 --> 00:17:50.165
So what is some specific things that you can do which you kind of talked about when we were going through the initial story?

00:17:50.165 --> 00:17:56.605
Right, the initial like head of voices, where you're like, oh, I can at least do 15 minutes of exercise, right?

00:17:56.605 --> 00:18:00.528
So do you think that would be part of the activities that you do?

00:18:00.548 --> 00:18:03.011
Right, so do you think that would be part of the activities that you do?

00:18:03.011 --> 00:18:10.818
Yeah, like when I get up in the morning, no matter what time it is, there's specific activities that I was doing and I will be getting back to that.

00:18:10.818 --> 00:18:33.771
Like I'll make sure my social media posts it doesn't have to be a long one If I don't have a lot of time, it can be a short one Going down to my gym and at least doing some stretching if I'm short on time, but really coming up with what I'm going to be doing and when I do my weekly planning, making sure that.

00:18:33.792 --> 00:18:35.443
I'm incorporating those activities into my week.

00:18:35.443 --> 00:18:37.791
Yeah, I think that's going to be super important, Okay.

00:18:37.791 --> 00:18:40.765
So what do you think you're going to stop yourself from doing when you're feeling excited?

00:18:40.765 --> 00:18:43.086
Okay, so what do you think you're going to stop yourself?

00:18:43.106 --> 00:18:45.589
from doing when you're feeling excited.

00:18:45.589 --> 00:18:48.232
I will not beat myself up when I'm excited.

00:18:48.232 --> 00:19:08.193
Yeah, I will just be in a better head place to move forward with the activities that I need to do, like connecting with people and, just, you know, coming up with better energy when I'm on social media and things like that.

00:19:08.213 --> 00:19:16.659
Yeah, you'll be showing up with different energy and attracting people because that energy is really important.

00:19:16.659 --> 00:19:23.286
What are some of the thoughts that you might have with this kind of different thought process?

00:19:26.451 --> 00:19:33.612
I will actually believe what I write down every morning when I say I can make a difference in mine and others' lives.

00:19:33.612 --> 00:19:37.046
I write that down every morning and I will actually believe that I can.

00:19:39.650 --> 00:19:45.859
Believe your affirmations, right, yeah, okay, all right, so let's walk through this.

00:19:45.859 --> 00:19:48.611
So the facts haven't changed right.

00:19:48.611 --> 00:20:13.258
We'll still have those moments where you know you won't have enough time to do some of the things that you need to do for your business and for your health, but your new story will be I know I can make a better life by reaching my health and business goals to be able to travel with my family, and that makes you feel excited, and when you're feeling excited, you look forward to actually working on your business and exercising.

00:20:13.258 --> 00:20:16.416
You'll make sure you have some type of social media posts.

00:20:16.416 --> 00:20:19.788
You'll do at least some stretching for your health.

00:20:19.788 --> 00:20:27.976
You'll do weekly planning so that things come up like this you actually have something that you won't have to scramble, right?

00:20:27.976 --> 00:20:30.432
You're not going to beat yourself up.

00:20:30.432 --> 00:20:39.699
You'll be in better headspace and you'll also want to connect with people and actually believe your affirmations that you do every day.

00:20:39.699 --> 00:20:43.968
So, with all of that, what do you think you'll be manifesting?

00:20:46.292 --> 00:20:50.548
I think I would manifest growth in my business and getting closer to my health goals.

00:20:54.538 --> 00:20:57.946
Yeah, because, like we said at the very beginning, they're related.

00:20:57.946 --> 00:21:04.086
Yeah, so a growth in your business and improvement in your health Is that what you said?

00:21:04.366 --> 00:21:04.586
Yeah.

00:21:07.451 --> 00:21:12.339
Yeah, so so, with all of this, how, how do you feel now?

00:21:15.244 --> 00:21:24.227
Talking through it just kind of gives me that excitement that I can do this and I just need to plan out and take action.

00:21:24.227 --> 00:21:28.977
So good that I, you know, talked about it.

00:21:30.219 --> 00:21:31.281
Yeah, and it is.

00:21:31.281 --> 00:21:40.134
It is really helpful to say things out loud, because most of the time we're just talking in our head right.

00:21:40.134 --> 00:21:45.580
And we're trying to kind of do two things at once.

00:21:45.580 --> 00:21:59.872
First we're trying to figure out how to find a solution for our problem, and also we're kind of beating ourselves up and kind of talking ourselves out of doing things.

00:21:59.872 --> 00:22:11.741
So it's kind of like that saying goes where you can't find a solution for your problems when your actual mind is what created the problem.

00:22:12.201 --> 00:22:12.422
Right.

00:22:13.285 --> 00:22:33.160
So this is why it's so important to have someone else, or you, to be able to say things out loud, but to have a different perspective, right yeah, because I am not Shelly, so I'm looking from a bird's eye view of what I see going on.

00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:36.286
So you do this for your clients as well, right?

00:22:36.286 --> 00:22:36.405
You?

00:22:36.405 --> 00:22:37.425
Not only help with health and nutrition.

00:22:37.445 --> 00:22:47.369
Right, you know you not only help with, you know health and nutrition, but you're also a life coach yeah, an advanced life coach so you can provide this to other people as well.

00:22:47.369 --> 00:22:52.672
So you understand how our minds work and how it plays games with us.

00:22:52.672 --> 00:23:00.734
Yeah, because you know the things that you're doing.

00:23:00.734 --> 00:23:23.703
And the frustration that you're feeling is just because you know there's different things that maybe we fear, or you know it's too hard and our mind just really wants to make things easier and sometimes it thinks that not doing things and keeping yourself from going outside of your comfort zone is easier and safer.

00:23:23.703 --> 00:23:31.709
Right, but we're we're not doing any of that Like we want.

00:23:31.709 --> 00:23:32.731
We want to reach big goals, you know doing.

00:23:32.731 --> 00:23:40.676
Having a better life for your family and being able to travel with them is is big, but it's all scary because there's work to be done.

00:23:40.676 --> 00:23:44.105
Yeah, so, yeah.

00:23:44.105 --> 00:23:47.354
So I hope that was helpful for you.

00:23:47.513 --> 00:23:51.993
It definitely was Even as a life coach, knowing how the brain works and stuff.

00:23:51.993 --> 00:24:01.535
We still beat each other or beat ourselves up and that's sometimes I think it's even worse because that voice was saying you know better.

00:24:01.535 --> 00:24:03.980
But I felt kind of stuck still.

00:24:04.904 --> 00:24:09.875
Yeah, and you know, what do you think is the benefit?

00:24:09.875 --> 00:24:16.490
To say, well, I should do this or I know better, I should be doing this.

00:24:16.490 --> 00:24:18.253
Right, there really isn't a benefit.

00:24:18.253 --> 00:24:19.237
No, there really isn't.

00:24:19.237 --> 00:24:28.944
And you're right, we can sometimes be our worst enemies and even even though we know what's going on, um, we're human.

00:24:28.944 --> 00:24:32.093
Yeah, so it's gonna happen.

00:24:32.192 --> 00:24:35.843
Anyways, it's just about how long are you gonna stay in that?

00:24:35.843 --> 00:24:40.031
Right, because you mentioned, you know, there's like this internal batter, it's like a rat race.

00:24:40.031 --> 00:24:42.916
Well, how long do you want to stay in that?

00:24:42.916 --> 00:24:43.798
Right?

00:24:43.798 --> 00:24:52.858
It's like it's about becoming aware of what we're doing and then choosing not to continue to go down that path.

00:24:52.858 --> 00:25:01.318
Right, choosing to focus on, you know, a goal and a desire to be able to provide this for your family.

00:25:01.318 --> 00:25:06.115
And then we just have to figure out like, okay, well, what's the best way to do that?

00:25:06.115 --> 00:25:10.836
Focus on that story, but also like, what is that story going to manifest in?

00:25:10.836 --> 00:25:23.728
And it'll manifest into what it is that you want, instead of your old story of questioning whether you can do things and, you know, feeling down and beating yourself up about it, right?

00:25:24.128 --> 00:25:24.711
Yeah, for sure.

00:25:25.692 --> 00:25:47.858
Yeah, okay, well, I'm glad that was helpful, shelly, and I, you know, I look forward to seeing all of the great stuff that you're you're doing and you know I'm super excited for you to be able to hold on to this story and, you know, get back on track, but then also give yourself grace when that doesn't happen, right, because we're humans.

00:25:47.858 --> 00:25:50.153
So, thank you so much, shelly, thank you.

00:25:50.153 --> 00:25:57.613
So, thank you.

00:25:57.613 --> 00:26:12.249
