Hello everybody and welcome back to the Happy Times Podcast.

I know it's been a long time and I'm not here to say sorry I'm not here to apologize because I'm not

sorry I'm not apologetic about being gone I don't feel that way at first I did at first I

first I felt like you know feel that's

I felt like I needed to do something and I think that's probably one of the worst

positions to be in as a Creator is feeling like you need to do something,

like you need to get something done, or else your life is a failure, or you just feel so much pressure in order to get things done.

And that's a really, really hard spot to be in, and I honestly don't expect a lot of

you to be able to relate to that at all and I don't I really don't but I'm here to explain to you I was gone because I felt lost I took my breaks because I felt trapped. I took my break because I didn't know where I was going.

And all those things kind of like come back to the same meaning of I felt lost and so

if you're listening to this I'm guessing you feel lost as well and I'm going, you guys know the whole idea behind this

podcast is it's called the Happy Times, you know, we're here to talk, we're here

to get emotional, we're here to have a real conversation, and with that being a real conversation,

this is not scripted. There are no notes. This is one topic and we are here to talk about it.

So, you feel lost. I did too. I still do. I always will and that's okay. So the way I've thought about it is that I think there are two different types of

being lost. One, overwhelmed, which means you know what you need to do, you know everything, but you just feel

so overwhelmed to get it done. You overworked yourself to the point that you can't know left from right and

you just don't know where to go because you have worked so freaking hard to the point that you're burnt out. And with that being said, you feel

lost. With everything in mind, there's just nothing left to think about other than giving up.

And then that puts you in the position of not knowing what to do

with the rest of your life.

But little do you know, you actually want to do what you know you gave up on
