That's actually a good thing because it changed how I make friends and how I use, I like overdeveloped that skill. So I never really told anybody the truth about what was going on. I just told them like, Here's the saddest thing you've ever heard, but we're all chuckling about it. You know, it broke.
My sense of humor broke for a while, which actually is one of the best things that ever happened to me.
Talk to us about that. This is a rule I have now. It's a rule I made for myself and who knows if rules are good, but I actually think this one is pretty good, which is that I don't bring something to the internet or to stage that I haven't told someone else interpersonally. That's good.
And I think part of that is, you know, when you do stand up since public speaking, and I'm sure you get this all the time too, Glennon. And actually I even feel like I know how hard this is for you a little bit, just from, from knowing you, people will talk about public speaking as being the most like, oh my God, I can't believe you do standup. Like that's so hard.
And I'm like, I don't know, different people have different skills. Some people are a brain surgeon, you know, that's the first thing I'll say. The next thing I'll say is like, that's not hard for me. Like, it's not that the skill of standup isn't hard. You know, any skill is
something you can work on over time, but standing up in front of, you know, 20, 200, the largest audience I've ever performed for is 40,000 people. That, that is like- Exactly. You know, it's much worse. Talk to one person that you have to ever see again. Oh my God. No, nope. That's that is impossible. Talk to thousands of people that are going to leave. Great. Easy. Like, yeah, no problem.
There's no intimacy there. There's some spiritual intimacy, but it's not something that you're going to have to grow. You know, I'm not going to have to show up and have these people know me. That's right.
Yes. Yes, I did. I really appreciated the reminder and yes, it did help again, you know, performing and stuff. People will ask what the experience is like. And I will say you are on one is on drugs. The way that it affects my, um, adrenaline and my, the chemicals inside my body is that I am, I am on an altered state. So like performing kind of makes you just want to
if you're a certain type of person, perform more. Yeah. If you're a certain type of person, like everyone on this podcast. Yeah. Yeah. It just kind of makes you want to perform more. When I was texting about this, it's like, I had been on this, you know, been working that day and it's like, the up is so intense. And I think I was like, trying to stay up. Like what else can I do?
You know, I have a day off. I'm like writing think pieces. I'm like pitching TV show. It's literally like, no, sit down or, or walk and listen to something and, you know, yeah, come down a little bit. But I think once I'm in that state, the last thing I want to do is come down.
It really does help. I just said this, I'm repeating myself, but it's very hard for me. It's very hard to be known. Um, it's very hard to be open to suggestion. If you're a certain type of person, I don't want people to know. I don't have it figured out. That feels embarrassing for some reason. We don't know why that is. That's not a healthy reaction to not having it figured out.
And also like, I want to move, I want, you know, I want to move like fast and loose and have.
Sparky, flame out relationships and do a completely wild job and fling my body around the country in a plane. That's like what feels normal to me. Chaos feels calming.
Oh, that really hit me. Yeah, did it?
Chaos is so, in my experience, chill.
Let's go. Yeah. I just feel like I can relax. I'm like, oh, thank God. Finally, the world feels like I feel. Finally, there's not like something I'm not doing or something I could do better. Everything's so impossible that it's like, oh, I can really chill out. Wow. Cool.
So anyway, that is what I'm trying to instead have connection and friendship and have the ability to stay, the ability to like not run toward or away, but just to like hang. I'm finding that a lot in my romantic relationship. I'm finding that a lot in having friends that I go back to again and again. I have hobbies. I'm finding that a lot in having hobbies.
What are the hobbies? I love my hobbies. I run. I have a running partner. Wow. That is so... Bonkers to me. But I have a running partner. I have a running partner I run with. I go swimming at the YMCA that is in my tiny mountain town that I live in outside of Los Angeles. I take dance classes, which is really cool and new for me, like ballet and bar classes, which is so gender challenging.
I was just going to say, what outfit do you wear? Great question. I wear like a t-shirt and sort of like, I guess, yoga pants. But you know, when I was a little kid and I took a zillion ballet classes, like the boys would wear, they wear like black tight pants and a t-shirt. Way cooler. So that's sort of, that's what I wear basically.
That's what I wear.
