Hello, hello, everybody. We have another special episode with apparently your favorite guest. His name is Brian Fassett, and he is also my favorite guest because he's my husband.

Hi, Brian. Welcome back to Made to Thrive. And I'm also the editor, so I get to insert the big cheering sound effect whenever you mentioned my name.

No, it is true that everybody is really excited when you come on, and you already know this because

I think your ego is blowing up a little bit.

I was trying to hide that.

Welcome to Made to Thrive. I'm your host, New York Times bestselling author Chris Carr,

and it's my mission to help you feel better, live bolder, and create a more meaningful life.

Let's get started, my friend.

So we thought we would do something very casual, which is kind of the opposite of what we normally do. I am a prepper, not like an end-time's prepper, but I like to

prepare. Sometimes I overly prepare.

I don't know anybody else out there who's a content creator or whatever it is that you do it in your life and in your job,

that you feel like you have to prepare a lot before you do the thing that you do.

And sometimes that can be really fun. And sometimes it can actually be

kind of boring. So what I thought would be cool about this episode is to just show up. And we put up

a poll on IG and a bunch of you asked questions because we said, ask us anything.

So this is an Ask Us Anything episode.

Is that my cue?

Yeah, like when I'm quiet, you say something.

I'm just not used to that.

All right, well, here we go.

Here's a question that comes up quite a bit.

People are very interested in your daily routine.
