like it was a startup business. 00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:11.280 So being able to watch and be a part of that has taught me so much. 00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:32.079 And the community itself, like working for a community as the community manager, like obviously that is like the experience that I bring forth, like trying to grow a community of my own, a community of women who care about wellness, care about their bodies, and who feel like when someone says something, it isn't like, oh my god, I'm being crazy. 00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:35.600 It's like, oh my God, I feel you, I hear you, I see you. 00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:44.480 And being able to relate and bring together people who understand each other, that was the exact same mission in parallel. 00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:50.319 And even like working, you know, at the marketer with you invited me into Together Digital. 00:04:50.480 --> 00:05:01.519 And there's so many things I learned about like I built my website through Together Digital, and I might not have like even made one if I hadn't had help from Danelle. 00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:03.680 Respect to her, she's awesome. 00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:04.639 Yep. 00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:06.319 Hello to Danelle. 00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:10.319 She just did a masterclass, by the way, on uh creating website accessibility. 00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:13.279 So if you haven't watched that yet, friends, definitely go back and watch it. 00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:15.120 It's so good, so good, so informative. 00:05:15.199 --> 00:05:17.920 She's both her and Robbie wicked smart, all these women are. 00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.439 So I'm so glad that you got a lot out of it in the time with the group as well. 00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:26.560 All right, so you do two things that don't normally go together, I would say coaching and cooking. 00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.600 Which came first, and how did the other one find you? 00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:31.600 Yeah, it's like the chicken and the egg. 00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:34.399 Honestly, cooking has always been a thing. 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.000 I think my parents are actually on here, so shout out to them. 00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:40.160 But we of course they are. 00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:41.839 Hi, mom and dad. 00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:46.079 We loved cooking um for me growing up. 00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:53.279 And we had, you know, if you guys are Cincinnati locals, like Jungle Gyms, that was our regular grocery store. 00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:55.759 So we would buy crazy stuff and make it. 00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:06.959 And I was an only child, love it or hate it, but I was like, like honestly, like always around them, learning how to do things and then doing them myself because if they weren't there, who was gonna do it? 00:06:07.040 --> 00:06:08.160 It was gonna be me. 00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:10.240 So I've always been cooking. 00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:13.839 That's like how I express my creativity, honestly. 00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:18.319 And it also

is like the gateway into wellness for me. 00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:29.040 I care about how I feel my body, and I just learned like how to use it to like better myself, which led me to want to become a health coach. 00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:32.240 I really wanted to take my health coaching certification. 00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:39.279 And they say, you know, you can start a business or you can just use that information for yourself and move forward. 00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:49.279 I decided to start a business and I wanted to be a health coach, but that cooking, like that's a calling, and I had to figure out how to weave them together. 00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:59.600 And I found that when I cook for my community, I get to invite them into like why I do this, why I care about wellness, and that invites them into coaching. 00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.120 Food's a good way to bring people together. 00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:05.680 And food is medicine, right? 00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:06.800 Like it, you're so right. 00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:08.480 It definitely changes. 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:14.319 And the older I get, you know, the more I realize the things that I put into my body make a huge difference. 00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:21.360 One glass of wine or a cocktail goes over very differently than it did when I was younger, or sugar, like carbs, all that kind of stuff. 00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:22.800 It definitely hits your body differently. 00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:26.319 And I'm sure you could say the same even for where you are in your cycle, right? 00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:26.959 Yes. 00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:27.519 Yeah. 00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:34.560 I love like the opportunity to teach anyone about like when you give them a meal, it's like, oh my God, this is amazing. 00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:35.199 What is this? 00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:37.759 I'm gonna tell you what it is and why we're eating it. 00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:49.120 And if I'm sitting with a table of women, like that's where I get the opportunity to talk about cycle syncing, like your nutrition to your phases, which if you're like, pause, let's like take a time out. 00:07:49.279 --> 00:07:50.240 What even is that? 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:57.920 Cycle syncing is just understanding as a woman, you have four phases of your cycle, and there's different things that your body needs. 00:07:58.079 --> 00:07:59.279 Like, we are not the same. 00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:02.879 Men, they start over every day, 24-hour clock. 00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:04.959 Women, we have like a whole month. 00:08:05.199 --> 00:08:11.439 So if you're like, oh my gosh, I'm completely different this week from last week, you are hormonally, you are different. 00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:19.920 Your body wants different nutrients, your body wants to move differently and all of those pieces: movement, food, your emotions, your symptoms. 00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:23.519 If you take those all into account, that cycle sinking. 00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:27.839 So being able to say, like, well, this meal has, you know, a lot of magnesium. 00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:33.039 This would be really good for this time to help ease, you know, cramping, or maybe you're really sore. 00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:40.000 That is what I love to like teach when it's just like, I thought we were just sitting down eating food, but now you're gonna eat all TED Talk. 00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:40.960 I love it. 00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:44.559 That's and it's definitely your zone of genius in the space that you love to be in. 00:08:44.639 --> 00:08:48.559 And so that passion obviously comes through and that also draws people in. 00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:53.039 Let's talk a little bit though about the play and creativity of all of this, since that's today's theme. 00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:57.679 When a woman comes to you feeling disconnected from herself, what does that usually look at look like? 00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:00.480 And how would she normally describe it to you? 00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:07.679 Yeah, I think it's honestly the exact same as when you go to your friends and they're like, How you doing? 00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:10.080 And you're like, honestly, girl, I'm not good. 00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:16.799 Like, I'm tired or I'm frustrated, maybe I'm bloated, I'm not getting good sleep. 00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:22.480 Like all of those cues that like you know in your body are not your normal for you. 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:28.960 Of like, I remember when I was working out and I love my workouts, now I don't really like them anymore. 00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:37.360 Or I love my children, but like all of a sudden everything I do is for them, or like just all those little things. 00:09:37.519 --> 00:10:00.320 Like when you don't feel connected to your body and what you actually love, if you're not doing your hobbies, like those kinds of things, like that's when you're disconnected, and that's like the clear sign of like we need to take a step back and like look at where we're spending our time, and like that's why I think creativity is so important because that's what I always draw it back to, because that's what people desire. 00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:05.840 Like, your hobbies lie there, your passions lie there, and that's really where you can connect. 00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:25.200 Like, yeah, no one wants to be bloated, but like bloated is common, but you know, it's not common, saying, like, I haven't read a book in three months, and I read like 12 books a year minimum, like those kinds of things where it's about you and you can really connect to that. 00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:26.960 That's what I always listen for. 00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:28.559 Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. 00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:30.799 And I'm sure those who are listening can really relate. 00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:36.559 There's like this sense of dissociation almost, where it's like you're just kind of like you're watching your life from the outside. 00:10:36.720 -->

00:10:47.519 And I've also described it as like living from the neck up, where it's like you're just so in your head and you're never in your body and you're never resting properly or finding a way to just learn how to relax. 00:10:47.679 --> 00:10:52.240 So yeah, I think a lot of people can um relate to what you're sharing. 00:10:52.559 --> 00:11:03.360 So, you know, in that, in that kind of along that thread, you know, a lot of us kind of, especially in this digital marketing and advertising space, we kind of file creativity. 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:22.480 And when I say creativity, I want to make sure I'm making it clear that we're talking about creative for the sake of being creative, not for the sake of solving a problem, you know, helping somebody's business, painting a room, like true creativity just for the sake of creating something and kind of getting again out of your head and into your body. 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:25.440 Um, but we've really kind of put that as optional. 00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:32.320 Why do you think that it's often the first thing that we let go of when stress and burnout take over? 00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:35.279 Like, why do we not turn to creativity despite? 00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:36.879 I mean, a lot of us love the data. 00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:43.440 There's so much data that shows creativity and expression are really great ways to combat that. 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:56.960 Yeah, I think there's the two biggest factors of like if you are a woman, like a lot of times creativity falls under something that is only for you. 00:11:57.120 --> 00:12:01.679 And as women, oftentimes when you are busy, life is asking a lot of you. 00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:06.639 Things that are just for you are the first to go, always. 00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:16.879 It also creativity, like you think about it as that like childlike energy, that the things you loved when you were younger, it comes from an area that isn't. 00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:24.799 I mean, if you're like wonderfully skilled at like composing or drawing, and like that's your job, that's your life, like that's a little bit different. 00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:33.440 But like a lot of times, creativity comes from just that like inner playfulness that can be that more childlike personality. 00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:39.679 And like when you grow up, you have all these huge responsibilities, you're like, I don't have time for that anymore. 00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:44.320 So, those two, especially in this community, that's often both. 00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:46.480 You're feeling both of those. 00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:54.480 So when you have all of these things on your plate, you're saying, you know, I don't, this isn't a priority for me. 00:12:54.799 --> 00:13:15.200 But what you're not understanding is like those things, those small hobbies, the just like, you know, going on a walk and like not listening to a podcast or like running and listening to hardcore music, like maybe just looking at the flowers or just like listening and breathing, like when was the last time you just like listened to your breath? 00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:17.039 Like, even something simple like that. 00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:21.919 That's a really like abstract view of creativity. 00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:28.159 But then there's like the obvious of like, do you like to like paint or do you like to write? 00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:32.879 Maybe you love like poetry, like you love playing music. 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:38.559 There's all these different aspects that are like immediately you view those as creativity. 00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:42.799 There's like a very large scale, and that's what I like to show people. 00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:51.440 Like, creativity is not just one thing, it's whatever makes you create and what makes your, you know, your left brain light up. 00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:59.840 Like, yeah, also the left side of your body, that's your feminine side, and also like that is like your creative brain as well. 00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:05.600 So I think innately women, you know, we express ourselves and we align a lot with creativity. 00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:12.879 So when you shut those out, you're really shutting out a lot of your own identity, whether you know, identify with that or not. 00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:14.399 Yeah, that's so true. 00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:15.519 It's so insightful. 00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:18.799 And I do think that perfectionism kind of comes into play there, right? 00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:20.639 People think that, oh, I'm not creative. 00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:23.200 The people that I've heard say that, like we are all creative. 00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:27.279 You can just lay down, look up the sky, and imagine animals in the clouds or something. 00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:31.519 Like there's everyone is creative in some fashion or some way. 00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:33.919 Like you said, it's just about finding that. 00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:36.320 Um, and yeah, Christy just dropped into the chat. 00:14:36.399 --> 00:14:40.080 She's like, we also feel guilty or selfish for making that time just for ourselves. 00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:48.320 So yeah, I think a time crunch and perfectionism and like the fact that we assume that creativity and play have to be perfect, it's it's such bullshit. 00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:50.879 It's like one of my favorite new activities. 00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:57.440 Um, I want a plug her for anybody who's listening from Cincinnati because it's another woman-owned business, and it's called Paint Playground. 00:14:57.840 --> 00:15:01.039 And you saw this because Isabel, because I took my kids there. 00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:12.480 And it you just go into a room and you put some canvases on the wall and you put on ponchos, and she has paint brushes, water guns, like all these different ways to just throw paint. 00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:18.799 And it's all about just letting it be messy, not making there be a process, and

definitely not about perfectionism. 00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:27.600 And she's been getting not just families coming in, but groups of women who were really using it almost as like an art therapy experience to just have at the canvas. 00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:29.759 And I was like, that's such a great idea. 00:15:29.919 --> 00:15:31.919 And you don't need to go somewhere to do that. 00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:40.159 You could literally just go to the paint store or the craft store, grab a couple of things and be like, I don't even know what I'm gonna make, but I'm just gonna go at it and see what happens, you know. 00:15:40.320 --> 00:15:43.600 And it's such a fun thing to do, or those like paint and sip classes. 00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:45.519 I've seen people go like, I can't paint. 00:15:45.600 --> 00:15:50.000 And they go into those classes and they're so like just open and like here's some technique. 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:56.159 And then people who who can't draw a smiley face so come up with some painting, and I'm like, dang, that's really cool. 00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:56.960 Yeah. 00:15:57.200 --> 00:15:59.039 I also love the paint room idea. 00:15:59.120 --> 00:16:01.840 I feel like it's like the female version of the rage room. 00:16:02.000 --> 00:16:02.399 Yeah. 00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:03.759 Oh, that's so true. 00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:08.000 And of course, like instead of breaking shit, we're like creating with our rage. 00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:09.519 I love it. 00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:11.840 It's very feminine of us of all. 00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:12.559 All right. 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:23.039 So on that note of kind of things like paint throwing or even rage rooming, you know, um, your whole approach is built around no rigid rules, which is where most of the wellness world starts. 00:16:23.279 --> 00:16:26.960 Where would you, where you ever, were you ever? 00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:27.679 I can read. 00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:30.720 Were you ever on the rigid rule side yourself? 00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:32.639 I'm pretending like I don't know you already. 00:16:32.799 --> 00:16:34.720 And what changed your mind? 00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:36.879 It's so funny. 00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:44.799 Like, I always like I'll get asked like a question, and I'm like, I feel like there's such a dichotomy of myself. 00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:52.879 Like, if you guys know me, if you don't, like I am very OCD, very organized, very direct to the point. 00:16:53.039 --> 00:16:55.679 But then I'm also like, I need to do this and that. 00:16:55.759 --> 00:17:03.120 And I'm like very creative and spontaneous, and honestly, like the two like really fight against each other. 00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:07.039 But with rules, like I hate a rule. 00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:08.559 Like, I really hate it. 00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:17.359 I just like I don't like teaching other people rules because I know a lot of people like really get tied to that. 00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:20.880 Maybe like if you're tracking calories, a lot of people get like addicted. 00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:22.720 They're like, oh my gosh, I need to know this. 00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:25.519 Now this like really affects how I view my food. 00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:28.079 For me, I'm like, I'm not gonna do this. 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:29.519 Like, I'm I'm over it. 00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:32.559 Like, I get really tired of stuff like that. 00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:41.680 So I have to kind of like make it a game or a lifestyle and like really educate myself on something because if I don't believe in something, I'm not doing it. 00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:47.680 So I would say, not really a rule person, but I have a rule personality. 00:17:48.000 --> 00:18:04.319 So I will honestly like educate myself on like what works best for my body, fully believe in it, like understand like what is this, why am I doing it, what are the benefits, honestly, to the point where like I can then teach it about other people. 00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:16.640 Obviously, I do that, but for people who don't, like it's the equivalent of like you're younger, you're studying for a test, and like if you can like ask someone else the questions and then like grade them, you know you're gonna get a good grade on the test. 00:18:16.799 --> 00:18:18.799 Like, that's how I view it, honestly. 00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:20.960 Yeah, that's smart, that's a good way to look at it. 00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:22.559 And yeah, that's what I was teasing you. 00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:26.960 I was like, well, I know the OCD, but I think it's what makes you good at what you do. 00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:39.680 And I think we're very similar in that way, where it's like we don't like hard and fast rules, we want flexibility over rigidity, but we love the process, you know, because we don't want to waste time and energy on the things that don't let us have fun and be creative. 00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:47.759 And that's where sometimes process clarity details are important, but it doesn't mean like rules are written there and stoned, and this is the way it always has to be. 00:18:47.839 --> 00:18:48.640 So I think that's again. 00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:56.400 Like, especially as a coach, like I can't be like, Amy, you're gonna have the exact same plan. 00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:59.759 You follow the same rules as Christy, my mom in the chat. 00:18:59.920 --> 00:19:01.599 Like, you guys are not the same people. 00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:06.160 Like, there's so much nuance to like showing people how to live, how to do things. 00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:08.960 And also, as women, we are not the same every day. 00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:17.920 I'm not gonna have you do this exact guideline when one day you're gonna far exceed that and one day you're really not. 00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:20.160 I want you to always believe in yourself. 00:19:20.319 --> 00:19:27.920 So I think oftentimes those rigid rules are what deter people from moving forward with their wellness goals.

00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:29.599 Yeah, that's fantastic. 00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:30.640 I love it. 00:19:31.119 --> 00:19:34.880 Um, and also um about the chat, please keep dropping the comments. 00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:36.880 We love hearing from you, live listening audience. 00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:42.799 And if you have questions, specific questions for Isabel that I'm not touching on, that's why we have you here listening with us live. 00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:46.640 Want to make sure that you guys get the most out of every guest we have here as our listeners. 00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:50.960 Um, you talk a lot, we've already talked a lot, actually, about feminine energy. 00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:55.519 So for the listeners who are maybe new to that idea, let's kind of come back to that for a second. 00:19:55.599 --> 00:19:59.599 And what does it mean to you and how does it connect maybe to creativity and play? 00:19:59.920 --> 00:20:02.240 Yes, this is my favorite question. 00:20:02.640 --> 00:20:08.640 I have a group coaching program called Flow Society, and we meet for eight weeks. 00:20:08.799 --> 00:20:15.759 And at the beginning, before anything, I always do a one-on-one session with each person coming in to understand where they are. 00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:17.440 How do they understand their cycle? 00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:18.720 Why are they here? 00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:22.960 And I always ask them define feminine energy for me. 00:20:23.119 --> 00:20:24.400 What does that mean for you? 00:20:24.559 --> 00:20:29.519 And I would say, you know, I have a lot of people in my community who are interested in the same things as me. 00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:34.240 They maybe have an answer and like have, you know, worked through this already. 00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:39.039 But you would be shocked about half the people are like, I don't know what that is. 00:20:39.200 --> 00:20:40.160 I can't define that. 00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:41.519 I don't know what you mean. 00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:42.799 Like nothing. 00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:44.480 And that is so common. 00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:48.400 And that like is really why I do what I do. 00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:58.960 Because as being a woman, I think it's very important to understand what you understand is what you teach others. 00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:06.319 And as a society, we have just been teaching each other that, you know, it's okay to say, Oh my god, I hate being a woman. 00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:08.160 It's so stressful, it's so hard. 00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:09.839 I hate having a cycle. 00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:12.160 I hate, you know, these expectations. 00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:18.400 Like, I understand it can be tiring, but to teach other women that is really hard. 00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:28.160 And you also shut down like the opportunity to understand, like, there is so much beauty in being a woman, in your femininity. 00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:33.599 And I think the most beautiful things are the creativity, the playfulness. 00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:46.079 A lot of people like to say, um, you know, the feminine is creation, playfulness, ideas, like all, you know, people who aren't looking like I'm moving my hands around in a spiral. 00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:52.720 Like, there's a lot flowing, and the masculine is the container in which holds feminine energy. 00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:58.640 We all have feminine and masculine energy within ourselves, but that also plays in dynamics. 00:21:58.720 --> 00:22:12.400 If you're in a relationship, If you have siblings, like co-workers, like it doesn't matter what relationship, but a lot of times, like we have all these ideas, and like the masculine has the structure in which how do we get there? 00:22:12.480 --> 00:22:13.519 How do we build? 00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:29.680 And uh I think you know it's also very important to understand that as women, we create life, we literally give birth to life, to new beings, and Mother Earth is the creation of life. 00:22:29.920 --> 00:22:37.599 So innately, like we are the creative beings, like we have the power to create, we are bringing forth that. 00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:58.319 And with everything you do, whether it's in business, whether you're literally birthing a child, you're birthing a project, like whatever you do is the creation, and that is really the most beautiful way of expressing your feminine energy of like this is my passion, this is what I care about, this is how I express myself, creativity, creativity, whatever. 00:22:58.400 --> 00:22:59.359 Y'all know what I'm saying. 00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:01.440 Creatively creatively, yeah. 00:23:02.079 --> 00:23:11.680 Like we just like that is how we move through life, and to dull that is really to dull our purpose, honestly. 00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:14.160 Yeah, that's such a good reminder. 00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:20.079 So, on that note, too, like for you, creatively speaking, feminine energy-wise speaking, cooking, right? 00:23:20.240 --> 00:23:23.519 And so you've been doing a lot of cooking for retreats and gatherings. 00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:30.240 How does feeding a room full of women teach you about them that coaching maybe alone wouldn't? 00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:36.000 And where does the playfulness come in when it comes to the making food for those retreats and gatherings? 00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:44.720 Yes, I would say when you that's this is kind of going back to the chicken and the egg of like I love cooking. 00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:50.000 This is how I share myself to others, this is how I give myself to others. 00:23:50.319 --> 00:24:01.680 So when you're in that space of like, I'm nourishing you, like I'm providing for you, like doesn't matter who you are, the you isn't you, the you isn't me, it's whoever. 00:24:01.839 --> 00:24:11.599 Like cooking for someone makes a bond of trust, of like you are supporting me, you are taking care of me. 00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:22.079 And you know, looking back, or if you are

currently doing this like with your family, like sitting around eating at the dinner table, that's when you learn how was your day? 00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:23.119 How was work? 00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:24.400 How is school? 00:24:24.640 --> 00:24:26.400 What are you into these days? 00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:30.640 You know, you're sharing your life and like what really matters. 00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:35.039 And that's like the true bonding point for a lot of families. 00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:44.400 And I've noticed that a lot as like cooking at retreats, like when we're in circles learning, obviously there's very deep, important shares there. 00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:49.599 But when someone is like, hey, I'm like really hungry, can I have a snack? 00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:51.839 Like, can I come in here and get like a juice? 00:24:52.079 --> 00:25:02.960 Like, then they're just talking to me, like we're learning a lot of things, and like we're just having a natural conversation, or like sitting down at dinner, like, oh my gosh, you've been in there all day. 00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:03.680 How are you doing? 00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:04.559 Why do you do this? 00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:05.440 Where are you from? 00:25:05.599 --> 00:25:24.079 Like, you really get to know people on a level that is evil or sorry, level playing ground, not evil, level playing ground, and it's like very just like safe and comforting, and that's where those deep shares are. 00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:34.480 But to answer the other part of your question of like, yes, like this is my number one form of creativity, and I get so excited about food. 00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:40.000 Like, if I'm going on vacation, like I'm gonna pick somewhere that's you know, nice, pretty, something I like. 00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:42.960 First things I'm planning, where is breakfast? 00:25:43.119 --> 00:25:46.240 Where is lunch, dinner, like where are the gelato spots? 00:25:46.400 --> 00:25:55.920 Like, honestly, like that is what lights me up, and I get a lot of inspiration from you know, online or when I'm traveling, or just certain things. 00:25:56.079 --> 00:26:13.440 And it's really nice to like do the cycle syncing planning because it's like, oh, now I have something new again that I can focus on and sharing that with others of like knowing why I care so much, like just lights up that passion as well to like want to create for them. 00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:14.880 I love it. 00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:25.359 Yeah, you're just reminding me of all of the women in my family that cook for others and how much it means to us and to them to like sit down and enjoy their meal. 00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:45.119 And it's it's such a practice of mindfulness that we forget because we're trying to like run in a million different directions and we're trying to find like the quickest, easiest meals because we're trying to do it between practices and games and after schools and and whatnot, but to be able to just truly like spend some

time cooking um for others and nourishing, like it's more than just the body, right? 00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:46.079 It's the mind and the soul. 00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:47.759 And I love that so much. 00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:48.880 That was such a good reminder. 00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:49.759 Thanks, Isabel. 00:26:50.319 --> 00:26:51.839 All right, let's get practical here. 00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:52.960 What does living?
