I decided that it would be a lot of fun to recap each episode after the episode. So today I'm going to be sharing with you my thoughts on the interview that I had of Forbes Riley, an absolutely amazing women action taker. Please go listen to her episode. She's episode number two. So go back and listen to that one after this, or go listen to hers first, and then you can find out what the heck I'm even talking about here.

Forbes mentioned some things that I thought were really interesting. I took some notes here and these are the things I'm going to be talking about today. One is that, you know, Forbes spent a lot of her life pleasing her mother or trying to please her mother. So if that's you, you're going to want to listen to this episode and also go back and listen to Forbes’ episode. I have some thoughts I'm going to share on this.

Another thing she said was that if you find your truth, life is better. Boy, is this a truth or what? And I've, I'm going to have something to say about that as well. And then she asked this question, a question to ask herself is how much fun can I have. We're going to talk about that. And I'm going to share with you my idea of -- not my idea of fun, because that won't matter for you, but how I found out how I could have as much fun as possible in my life. And then things happen. People say, things happen for a reason, but she says, life happens for you, not to you. And that things happen. And you find a reason. I thought that was a really interesting point she brought up.

Then she says to stop the bad self-talk and just get happier. People just get happier. We all have bad self-talk, but how can we work our way out of it so that we can do more, be more and have more in life.

And then I'm going to ask you this question. Do you doubt yourself? And if so, why do you doubt yourself? What kinds of things have happened in your life? And I'm going to start right here.
