TRANSCRIPT
Hey, pro organizers. It's Melissa, and I'm coming to you today with a little mini podcast. This is just kind of like Melissa's musings or we can come up with a cooler name for it. But I was thinking about something this morning and then I'm like, you know what?  I'm gonna go talk to all my podcast besties about it.
Um, just. A really quick side note that maybe no one listening really cares about, about my personal life, but, uh, or how this happens,  do you think I'm in like a podcast studio right now or like I'm in a really fancy No, I'm just at my desk in my house. My husband works at home and currently he is very loud on the phone.
We have discovered since the pandemic started, since he started working at home. He's a very loud. So I started trying to record this and he's like on the phone being super loud. Even though it's downstairs, I can still hear it, and one of my neighbors is putting siding on their house. So there's all this like construction noise.
So  I hope that I'm just coming to you in your ears and it sounds melodious and, uh, and good. But anyway, I'm just kind of laughing because this is real life, right? Like we are entrepreneurs, we run our businesses, real life happens. It's not pretty and it's not, you know, like calm and, sometimes things are a little crazy.
But anyway, that's just a little bit of, of the behind the scenes. But that's what happens when I'm gonna come to you with these random things off the top of my head, it's gonna be a little bit more casual than maybe what you're used to. But  okay. Onto my, uh, is it a rant? I don't know if it's a rant.
It's just, it's a commentary. It's something that I've learned this year that I think might be helpful to you guys, and it's this.  I've been doing this thing, it is not a year's resolution, it's just trying to create some new habits and I have been trying to wake up early in the morning and I mean like really early in the morning and get my workout in downstairs in my house before the day starts. 
 I have been doing a pretty serious digital detox. I took so many apps off my phone. I have taken all of my entertainment apps off my phone.  I chose to keep audiobooks and podcasts, but what this means is when I'm doing something like working out, for instance, I don't watch TV on my phone like I used to.
So this morning  I'm on the Peloton and I was in a work mood. You know? Do you, do you guys do this too? Maybe I, maybe it's just me, but sometimes I'll be in work mode where I'm like, oh yeah, 
I would love to listen to a work related podcast. Then there are other times when I'm like, Nope, I really, I can't switch my brain to work right now.  I just need something entertainment value. So,  I'll listen to  a fiction, audiobook, whatever. 
So let me back up and say for my digital detox, one of the things that I decided to do  was I needed to give myself permission to let things go if they aren't working for me in terms of my digital life.  For instance, I have a bunch of podcasts that have built up on my phone of things that I think I'm supposed to be listening to or.  Business books that I think I'm supposed to be reading because it's really, really important for me to read them, and I'm starting to do a better job in this particular digital detox of saying, does this thing serve me anymore?
 I have been trying  to be really, really honest with myself about am I keeping things on my phone or am I saying I need to listen to this? And it's sort of like, Schoolwork, right? Like, my kids are required to learn algebra,
