Yeah, I'm like, there was just no way of checking in on that.

And I think even creatively, I've had the privilege of being in all these luxury fashion spaces, but that was all tied to work. I did not find myself in any of those stores prior to working with these brands. Right. Because it just wasn't on my radar.

The way my brother has friends where it's like, oh, they know all of it all the time. They're tracking Fashion Week. Really? And I was like, I think I learned what Fashion Week was when I got an invite to attend because I was working in this space. I didn't have, again, all these worlds I was checking in on that didn't have anything to do with me right now.

And so I do feel like there's a particular challenge. And I have a lot of empathy for just generationally that feeling of what are we going to do with this world? information overload where it's even hard to parse apart what do I need to intake?

I'm a severe over news listener and I think my task has been listening to a little less news because it's like there's only so much you can do about it and it pushes, at least for me, I think it pushes me into a space of feeling very overwhelmed versus feeling activated. So I've been trying to be like, okay, what amount of news makes me feel activated but not overwhelmed?

Yeah, and some of it is a great point because some of it was that I've always been an audiophile. We grew up in a house where we didn't watch TV except for Saturdays for an hour, which I love. But it meant that I love audio. That is my form of entertainment. And so you're absolutely right.

There was a time, even though I don't know if I would call it that while I was listening, that it was more so like, oh, I'm listening to NPR.

You're listening to NPR so much that they're sending you free merch. That may be a cue. That may be a cue that you're listening to too much NPR. Because I was like, I have the app on my phone. I'm not even waiting until I'm in the car. I'm listening all the time. I'm waiting for the midday update. I'm waiting for the end of the day update. I'm cycling through local news.

I'm typing in local stations. And so I think changing that, because then I was listening to political podcasts at night. I was falling asleep to them. I was like, oh, bedtime. Time to turn on.

I love NPR because it is pretty straightforward, but I think for me, the amount I was consuming of every podcast available again was fulfilling more of an entertainment side. So it's been nice to literally reintroduce. I have those moments where I'm like, okay, time to get updated here. I want twice a day. Maybe I'll get to a once a day person. I'm a twice a day person.
