Hello and welcome to this week's episode of the podcast. How are Things? So how have you started off in the year? Now, it's been really interesting speaking to my community and seeing how I've been, because a lot of them have had a very slow start of the year, and I did the very first week. You know, I said to you before Christmas that basically during Christmas, I always plan to do so much work that I feel like I must have three months off.
I did nothing. Now, this must be for the first time ever that I didn't use that time between Christmas and New Year to get some work done. And I don't really know why I didn't do anything. And I'm quite happy that I didn't do anything. And it does mean that I perhaps came back into this year thinking, oh, I feel behind, but not really behind when no one's behind.
We just set ourselves a kind of, you know, task of when we want things done by. There's no race. I had a pretty slow start to the year. Also, I dunno about you, but I was so tired. So even though I did nothing over Christmas and New Year, pretty much nothing. I was still absolutely shattered. And also there's been loads of illnesses.
I know I sound a bit funny. I've just been sneezing. I'm absolutely fine. Yeah, there's been loads of illnesses and people have not been right and. Anyway, so I feel like lots of us have come into this year not quite firing on all cylinders that we might want to be. One thing that was really interesting was I went on with a session with Mary, my coach, at the beginning of the year, and I said to her, I'm really tired and I don't feel very motivated, and I'm just really exhausted.
And she's like, is that you or is that someone else? Now, You might be similar to me, where I am a bit of an empath and I take in people's feelings, which is a really, like, it can be really positive. It means I can understand very quickly how my members are feeling and before they've even opened their mouth, I normally know whether they're not very happy or if things aren't going right or you know, or if they're super happy, like I kind of get a feeling straight off the bat. But it also means that I take in a lot of other people's feelings and I can sometimes forget whether they're my own or whether I've taken them from someone else. So of course, me listening to everybody saying, I'm so tired, it's been, you know, really hard start to the year.
Of course, I was saying the same, and Mary sat there and was like, and just want us to have a minute and decide, and we did some kind of, you know, meditation exercise and, and is this you or is this someone else? And you know what was so fascinating? We got to the end of the meditation. I was like, oh yeah, no, that's not me.
Yeah, no, it's not me that's super tired. I've obviously picked that up from somewhere else and I'm carrying around as if it's my own,...
