I talk about how when I wake up in the morning I take steps to pre-frame my day, but lately they've been falling flat. I decided this morning to look for a question that would really spark some excitement in my life and decided on: WWIT to love my life and allow myself to love my life? That question moved a lot of energy and I think it will open a lot of opportunities for me. I also talk about people who take their knowledge with them when they leave and don't share it with others. In some cases, I'd say that is a tragedy and in others I'd say it is very selfish. Many times, it would be both. I'm struggling with separating the behavior from the person, but I don't like seeing someone new come in and be set up to fail, because someone who left isn't willing to share what they know. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

CHECK IN | Darian & Stephanie check in with each other about what shows they've been watching on Netflix.
Wwit mibw-wwkm... Nä, so geiht dat ni. Wenn ick mien „Alldagsmaske“ opheff, denn besleiht mi jümmers de Brill‘, un richti to verstohn bün ick ook ni. Also wech dormit – in Oogenblick bün ick je allent. Siet Middeweeken mööt wi nu also ook bi uns ganz in Noorn Muulkörf dreegen. In Bus, in de Iesenbohn, bi’t Inkööpen un so wieder. Mennige Weetenschoplers seggt je, wat dat gor nix bringt – wat dat sogor gefährli weer, weil dat den falschen Indruck ertüügen kunn, dat wi dordör seeker weern. Annerlei. Hest‘ den Plünn ni vör de Nees, denn gifft dat ’n Stroof. Dat mutt ick ook ni hebben. De Karnevalsfrünnen ward de Maskenplicht jedenfalls freu’n. Un noch mehr ward de Bankräubers düsse Entscheedung begrööten oder extreeme Demonstranten – wenn de denn weller demonstreern dörft. Nu is dat je so, dat man de Masken oder den Schutz över Mund un Nees je in bestimmte Situatschoon dreegen „mutt“, op de anner Sied dörft man ehr dreegen, wenn man „will“. Dor kann man je in’t Nodinken komen: Keen sick in sien eegen’t Auto ni seeker föhlt, dörft also ook mit sien Alldagsmaske op de Nees fohrn. Un wenn dat all mokt, denn künnt all de Lüüd mit de Radarfall’n an de Stroot ehr Geschäft je erstmol vergeeten. So is dat nu mol in düsse swore Tied. Wenn Krögers un Putzbüddels nix verdeent, hebbt even ook de Blitzer-Minschen dormit to leeven, dat se sick bilütten no’n anner Arbeid ümkieken mööt. Ick meen – ick kunn je so un so nix dorför, wenn ick to gau fohrn deh. Mien Brill besleiht doch jümmers wegen de Maske un denn kann ick dat Tacho gor ni mehr sehn. Figeliensch is dat mit de Masken in’t Gesicht ook, ruttofinnen, keen to de eegen‘ Famielje heuert. Op’t Letzt‘ seggt man to sien Fruu, wenn de een in Arm nehm‘ will: „Kinnt wi uns?“ Dor kann ick blots all roden, in de näste Tied ’n besten nosichti to ween. Ni, dat de Scheedungsanwälte noher noch Hochkonjuktur kriegt wegen de dorsten Plünn in’t Gesicht. Tscha. Mol sehn, wat dor noch so allns kümmt. Ick sett jedenfalls erstmol weller mien Alldagsmaske op un segg... Im bwüffm Wimm!
