mailed letters to dozens of friends and family members
to let them know they had died by suicide.
Dear honies, this is goodbye.

One, three.
Following the spirit where it tells us.
From the real stuff to the chill stuff and the in between.
Sometimes the best thing you can do is just out and feel things.
This is Feeling Things with Amy and Kat.
Happy Tuesday.
Welcome to Feeling Things.
I'm Amy.
And I'm Kat.
And I have lots of feelings of the day.
Let's hear them.
Okay.
One, I'm disappointed.
You want to know the feelings and then I'll give you a little tidbit.
So disappointed, envious, interested, and curious.
Okay.
So I'm disappointed in my food.
I'm envious of your food.
I'm interested in a handyman that came to do some work at my house.
And I'm curious if you think it's weird that I still have my ex-husband as my emergency contact.
Are you really asking me that?
Yeah.
I don't think it's, how do I say this?
I don't think it's necessarily weird.
Because your sister lives in Colorado.
Right.
Would that be the next person you would use?
It's not in every area where I have an emergency contact,
but I just realized I hadn't updated certain things.
Versus you're still put when some, if you go somewhere new and they ask you.
I don't add him like now.
Okay.
Okay.
That would be weird.
I didn't know how to say without being.
Okay.
Let me rephrase that.
Is it weird?
I haven't updated all of that because it's.
It's been years and it's time and I need to just do that.
Well, no, because how do you know where to go?
I'm like, I'm not going to go to every single thing I've ever had at emergency contact and change it.
Well, so that I know he's listed and it's just like I haven't taken the time to change it because it's like, that's just a process.
So it just occurred to me.
So I was like, maybe is this weird?
I know in my phone with a little red asterisk, I do have the red emergency contact, but red azuret thing next to my sister, but also next to him.
I still haven't changed that.
Well, let's do that maybe right now.
You don't do it right now?
Yeah.
Take them all.
See, that's like, these are little tasks that like don't bother me, but I don't want to take
the time to do them at all whatsoever.
Like, I don't even know.
So if I go to my contacts, I pull up my phone.
And while we're talking about this or while I'm looking for his number, we can also talk
about how Kat just had the most best meal and I missed out on it.
My food, like I said, my food was disappointing.
But it is what it is.
I had already cooked it.
It was in my fridge,
but it's probably the fourth time I've eaten it this week
because I just cooked a bunch of chicken
a few days ago.
And then I made some butternut squash,
which that was really yummy.
The pre-chopped butternut squash at the grocery store?
Because do you know how hard it is to chop up your own?
I would never chop my own butternut squash up.
Why?
That because it sounds hard.
Yes, and it is.
Sort of like spaghetti squash.
You almost have to put it in the oven to preheat it and make it a little softer and then chop it.
But they had pre-chopped on sale.
So I bought a couple of boxes or containers.
And I am like, this is delicious.
You just roasted in the oven at 400 for 20 minutes with a little sea salt and some olive oil.
Your life was changed.
Except you're saying that you didn't really.
No, it was the chicken.
Oh.
It mixed in with the chicken and then glim pals ketchup.
that's what I had.
Every time now since we talked about that,
if y'all didn't hear that episode,
Lynn Powell had a traumatic experience with chicken as a child.
And so now he has, or chicken with ketchup.
So now he has his own ketchup brand.
And I bought it because I'm a marketing sucker.
And they had a picture of him next to the ketchup.
And now anytime I go to my fridge and I pull it out,
I'm like, I don't even, I still,
I can't even think of what it's called.
Glenn Powell's ketchup.
Glenn Powell's ketchup.
It is not called whatever brand it is.
Yeah.
They should just rename it.
Change the marketing.
The ketchup was good.
The butternut squash was good.
The chicken, I think I'm just over it or I didn't season it properly.
Well, you were comparing it to what I was eating.
That's probably the actual issue because Kat, tell them what you were eating because it was so good.
I actually ordered this two days ago.
Well, I came in with a bag of chick flay and Amy said, I had Chick-Flay early this week.
I had the kale salad with some chicken nuggets in it.
And I said, that is literally what I brought.
So that's what I had.
Literally what you brought.
It was so good.
Because you put some of the chicken nuggets in the kale salad and you eat that.
And then you have some chicken nuggets left over that you eat with dipped in ketchup.
So it feels like you get two different things.
Oh, that's a good idea.
I don't save any nuggets.
I break them all up with my fingers and make it shredded.
And then I put it in and I shake up the kale salad.
So anyway, if you're ever on the go and looking for a meal, oh, that one is so good.
and I was very jealous and envious.
That was my feeling of the day of Cat's Meal.
Now, my feeling of being interested,
I just went into my phone and I removed the red asterisk.
So, yay, that's done.
Check.
Okay.
Now get to interested because I'm interested.
Well, that just adds another feeling of the day for me.
I feel accomplished.
So we're down to what?
We have six feelings.
Lots.
You missed one, the last one.
Oh, yeah.
We'll get to that.
Okay.
Don't you worry.
All right.
Let's talk about why you're interested.
Okay, so I had a handyman.
He came and worked at my house.
and I can't stop thinking about him.
I really can't.
I know.
I know.
I know. Kat's like trying to find him online.
I'm like, I have no idea.
I know nothing.
We have a first name.
Yeah, we have a first name.
And what company where he works.
Yeah, but that's it.
They don't have him on their website.
Or their Facebook.
And then Kat's dad is a builder, and he kind of knows some of these people.
So then Kat's dad is actually one that remembered his name because I couldn't even remember his name.
And then he had his number.
So did we ever, did you ever look up the number?
Is that when you got that older?
Okay.
So Kat is looking on her computer and she pulls up this very old.
He was not old.
He looked like he was from the 80s.
Yes, yes, yes.
So now he would be old.
If that was him in the 80s.
I think he was like a, he's a hipstery guy.
I think that's his style.
I think that was a current picture.
And he just had like the mustache and the bow tie and the...
Do you think that's the handyman?
What did I say?
I go, I don't think this is him, right?
And then you confirmed.
And I said, no, that is not him.
But he had a similar job.
That's why I thought it could be.
Similar job.
And...
Anyway, we're on the hunt.
I don't know if I'm reading too many rom-coms, but I'm like,
could this be my story?
I need more things.
I start breaking stuff at my house to be like, can you come fix this?
Well, that's why we need your, you need to have his direct line, his direct work number versus you call the actual company because we need to make sure he's always the one that comes back.
But also I wonder, I just, if he really loves his job and doesn't want to like get in trouble, do you think he's allowed to ask out customers?
I mean, I know as a therapist, do you can't date your clients?
but is that the same thing in the handyman world?
Well, because what if you, yeah, but what if you did that?
Okay, but what if you did that and I got like, and you weren't into him and you were kind
of like, oh, I'm uncomfortable and now I don't want to call that company again.
If the company found out, they could be like, hey, like, tree art.
Here, we have this clip.
I'm not going to say anything to the company.
So if you're listening.
But also, I don't even know for sure.
Okay, we don't know how old he is.
He could be way too young for me.
He might have a girlfriend.
He didn't have a wedding ring.
He might have a girlfriend.
He might have a bunch of small children.
He might be single.
He might have a crazy ex.
He might have no crazy ex.
He might like men.
He might have a...
We don't know.
He might like you.
I don't think so.
Were you flirting with him?
I don't know.
I don't think so.
Well, I was like, well, while you're here, I have this other thing.
Wait, did you really?
Yeah.
Okay.
And he was like, okay, I can help with that.
I mean, obviously, I paid for everything.
That's his job.
It's not like I was trying to get anything.
But no, I don't think I was flirty.
I was working also while he was here and Shannon was here.
Like, we were working.
So does he like a working woman?
I don't know.
Well, we can find out.
This is fun.
So that is my feeling.
Interesting.
And then, okay, the one you mentioned that you, you're not supposed to look in the dock at my feelings.
I'm sorry.
I just, I'm sorry.
I was trying to.
So again.
inside baseball cat and i have a google doc and we we both add to it but we really both cat
types in purple and i type in blue so that way it's very distinct and we try not to read what the
other person has put in because we want to live this with you guys you're hearing stuff for the
first time and we're hearing it for the first time too so like i know now that i'm looking
and purple cats feeling conflicted today that's her feeling the day but i have no idea why but all
finish my final feeling, which is, I'm worried about you. I'm worried about you. I'm worried about
you. I'm worried. Because yesterday, you were very overwhelmed. And I, can I admit something?
Maybe. Are you going to hurt my feeling? No. Is this hurting your feelings? It's not meant to.
No. I thought we were being playful. I am worried, though. Okay. Behind every night spent making the

first bite? Will the lunchbox come home empty, half full, or come home at all? And will you finish

I'm working hard on it.
It's probably not the word.
I put a lot of thought.
I'll say this.
I put a lot of thought into how to text you what I texted you.
And I know you were driving, but I wanted to make sure I said it in the most non-overwhelming way,
but there was, I probably said too much.
I just wanted to be clear that, like, you don't have to do anything, but I obviously don't
want to do this without you and not give you the choice to participate because then you might
feel left out.
So I was presenting like, hey,
hey, you don't need to worry about this.
I got it.
But in case you want to be a part of it, you can.
And then third option was, you may hate this idea entirely and not want me to even do it.
So just you tell me.
And then you're by back, you're like, I can't read this right now.
I'm driving.
But I'm just letting you know that I'm really overwhelmed and I can't add anything else to my plane.
And I was like, I know, I know.
That's why I was saying.
But it's almost like you said you couldn't read it.
but then you answered the question.
Like, no, I can't do anything else.
And then that's when I knew, like, oh, wow, Katz.
So much so Shannon was going to text you about something.
I go, no.
Oh, thank you.
I was protecting your piece because it was a question that we could wait for.
And I said, I think Kat is having an overwhelming day.
And I don't think you should text her.
And she was like, okay, cool.
No worries.
We'll worry about it later because I knew you had clients to see.
I know you're very pregnant.
I know there's hormones and things.
It's 100 degrees out.
And you're, you are pregnant, the most pregnant at the hottest time.
So I remember heat makes normal people agitated.
So I just don't know.
I'm not saying you're acting agitated, but you can speak.
I'm just worried and I'm like, okay, we maybe need to come up with a plan for this final
month on how to best support you because I can't imagine all that you must be carrying
figuratively and literally.
Yeah, so I feel like I need to apologize because I didn't read your whole text.
I read the first part of it and in my head I was like, I can't do anything else was my thought
of like I don't want to do any.
I can barely get done the things I need to get done.
and it's I'm feeling conflicted because my feeling was actually about like I am feeling this way
but it's not that I have I have a little bit of guilt that I know is unnecessary like if I know
what somebody would tell me if I was sharing this but it just is the way I feel I don't have
the hardest job right now I'm not seeing even like yes I have clients but I'm not I have an
appropriate amount of work but ever.
Everything just feels harder.
And I'm trying to plan for my future and get ahead of things.
And so that's harder.
And I'm moving out of my office that I've been in for six years.
So that is overwhelming.
But then I think about like somebody who has to work a full 40 to 45 hours a week or is on their feet or doesn't have the ability to take a break when they need to take a break.
I have all of those.
So I'm like, it could be worse.
Catherine.
So get it together.
But back to your text, I didn't read the whole thing.
I think if I read the whole thing, I would have not texted you back that way.
It's okay.
Sorry, because I didn't realize that you were like, you don't have to do anything.
And I thought you were asking me to do something.
And it would have, even you were like, it will only take five minutes.
In my head, I was like, I know it won't take five minutes.
She's saying that's going to take five minutes.
I'm going to be at her house for 45 minutes doing this little social media thing and blah, blah.
And then I felt bad because I was like,
she's just trying to help us but and she you're so excited about everything and you're I can't match
your excitement and normally I would no and I get that I just could I guess now thank you for telling me
you hadn't read the whole thing which I knew you hadn't but then answered the question because you
I guess I knew you had it but you said I don't have time to read this so that made me think okay
maybe she didn't see the whole thing but then you answered I can't add anything else to my
play right now. So that's the answer to what I was asking. So I was like, so did she read it or did
you not read it? So now I have understanding that you only read a little bit. And then you got
overwhelmed and you were like, I can't do this. But here's where I know your heart's coming from
because I know you. And, you know, we've talked about this before. You feel guilty because you
want to be able to do it. But I don't want you to feel guilty nor should you. Like we're a team
together and there's going to be times where you're doing things or I'm doing things and we're
going to be in different seasons. So I'm glad I'm glad we're talking this out right now, but I don't
want there to ever be guilt. Now, if it becomes really disproportionate, dispapapapapap.
Disproportionate?
See, we're a team. We help each other. I finish your sentences. You do. If it ever becomes
extremely disproportionate for either one of us and something feels really off, then
there would need to be like a major talk.
However, it's not that.
We're, we have these little projects we're trying to get done.
And as we're growing, which I think it's great, we're growing, but we're adding someone to
our team and we're trying to figure out how they fit in, what that looks like, what the
heck are smart goals.
I don't know.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know with that.
Yeah.
So like you had stepped in and did some colors and some graphic stuff that I was,
opening that email and honestly I was overwhelmed to where I was just like forget it we're not hiring
anybody like I would rather just like not and we'll just figure this out whereas you're like you know
what I got this and you handled it so I feel a little bit of guilt that you did that but I would like for
neither one of us to feel guilt because we're going to have strengths and weaknesses I don't even want to
say weaknesses we're both going to have different things we bring to the table and we're both going to have
days where we feel overwhelmed and so hopefully this is a good takeaway from anybody in a relationship that
you have. It could be with your partner.
Like the good days and bad days. You know my favorite Bray Brown marriage advice things?
And we're kind of married in this podcast. Yes. I actually said this at Bobby's rehearsal dinner
because I didn't even know I was supposed to speak. And right before the person in charge came
over and like, oh, Amy, yeah, Bobby would like for you to speak. And I was a bridesmaid on Caitlin's side.
Anyway, I didn't know who was talking or that I even had to do that. And I was like, oh, shoot,
Oh, shoot, what I'm going to do?
What am I going to do?
And then all of a sudden, I thought of this Bernay Brown thing. And so that's what I went up there. And I just said a little speech about this, which if you haven't heard it, yes, it's applied to her marriage. And that was my marriage advice to Bobby and Caitlin. But it could apply to, and how are they going to get there if they even can? Because some days, they're just not.
But she may call her husband and say, look, I've had this, this, and this happen.
I'm at about 20% today.
Like, what do you got?
And he might be like, you know what?
I'm having a great day.
I'm at 80%.
I got you.
Like, what do you need?
A cover check, check, check.
Or her husband might be like, I'm at 20% today too.
Oh, shoot.
Now neither one of us combined even reaches 50%.
So we need to go home.
Let's, oh, we have this dinner tonight.
Is it absolutely necessary we go?
And this dinner tomorrow?
Nope.
Let's cancel anything on the calendar that we don't absolutely have.
have to do. And you know what? Do we even have to cook? Let's throw the fresh bench, throw things in the
freezer so it doesn't go bad. We're ordering food. Like, how can we simplify our life to survive on 40%
combined? And I love that. And we need to do that. So there's some days where you might be 20,
I may be 80, or I might be 10 and you're 90. Or combined, we're both losing our minds and we may
need to reconvene, which we actually talked about that. We're like, Kat and I have a pregnancy plan.
So we have this whole doc of, and it's a spreadsheet how we've been executing content and going through it.
And there's a couple of days that are going to be quite laborous.
Weeks, really.
Labor.
Oh.
Laborous.
Yeah.
Oh, that you.
And I think we need to, I think we were feeling really ambitious when we put those days on the calendar.
I think we need to reevaluate them and figure out a different way.
So that's just a little look, like that's in the weeds of what's going on here.
but hopefully that will be helpful for somebody listening right now that might feel that way in their own relationships.
And it's okay to have low percentage days.
Yeah.
I think as we were talking about this, this came to me that I grew up.
This is just a little tidbit of like how you grow up when things have nothing to do with what you're dealing with now.
They can still affect you in some way, the messages that you take from them.
But I grew up in a, I wouldn't say like, I wouldn't.
use the word tough, but I don't mean in the way
like not loving. I grew up in a very loving household,
but we all
were very involved in athletics
and sports and we all were
taught to be very tough in those
sports where if
something's not broken, then like
you don't get to complain about it.
And like even if it's broken, when I broke my
leg in two places, my mom said
the only reason I took you to
the hospital is because all the other parents were making
such a big deal out of it.
I was like, in your leg,
was broke. What? I've never broken anything, but I assume when something breaks, isn't it so
obvious? Well, I had my like sock and shingarden. So I, it was obvious to me because I was like
in excruciating pain. I did score while I broke my leg, though. And I was a defender, so it was a big
deal. Wow. But you couldn't see that it was broken. But then the other time that I broke a bone
playing soccer, I broke my collarbone. And I was hysterically crying in my time.
My dad was like, Catherine, stop crying.
It doesn't hurt that bad because he had broken his collarbone when he was in high school.
And I was like, it really does.
But I think that's just like the, they taught us to.
And it actually was very helpful in playing contact sports.
We were tough and that made us better athletes.
But I've taken that.
And I think I've applied it to a lot of parts of my life where I'm like, if it's not a huge deal, then you don't need to be completely.
complaining about it or you don't need to let it affect you. And I've had a relatively really good
pregnancy. Like I haven't, I'm feeling the things that people feel in their third trimester, but I haven't
been sick and I'm not so far. I'm not super swollen. I am, I can still get my ring on, but it is getting
tighter. Well, I think that's just also, I mean, my rings are tight. It's a hundred degrees. Yeah.
So I think part of me is like, and like I said, my job is flexible. So I'm like,
Catherine, you don't have it that bad.
So you just need to suck it up and get things done.
But what that does is then I agree to do things that I probably shouldn't agree to do,
like that schedule.
Like that schedule is kind of crazy.
Yeah.
And what if I'm like, there's no crying and podcasting.
Like I can't do one more episode.
So I just, as you were talking about that, I was like, I think that's a little bit of that coming out of me where I feel guilty because I feel
like I should be on the same playing field, but I am eight and a half months pregnant.
And you're bought, like I'm pumping 50% more blood and I'm carrying, who knows, 30, 40, maybe more
than that, more pounds around in 100 degrees.
And my body is doing things that I don't know what's doing, like extra stuff all the time.
And I can barely breathe.
So I need to take that into consideration because I would not treat other people that.
would treat other people the way you're treating me but i'm not treating myself that way if that makes
sense when it comes to work well this is a good realization for you so now you can assess in these final
hours and if my kids hurt themselves i think i'm probably going to i need to balance i don't need to do
the opposite and like oh my gosh i'm taking to the hospital because you scraped your finger like i need to
find a balance i'm sure you will yeah yeah it's kind of funny about your parents though your mom's like
other parents are making such a big deal we almost didn't even bring you here and meanwhile it's broken
in two places my mom also was a nurse so I think that it has affected like how she treated us when
we were sick and stuff too because she didn't get freaked out by things you know so she was slower
to react I couldn't fake sick with my mom so is this is what you're feeling conflicted about
that you're feeling conflicted that I am feeling bad for myself but then I'm feeling bad for
feeling bad for myself. Yeah. I've really worked through something. We did. I feel like yes.
This is good. So now we have a plan. You and I are going to have a meeting about the spreadsheet.
And I'm going to start reading your text when you said it. Well, I mean, it's okay. I get it.
I knew I knew I didn't want to add to your plate. That's why that was option number two. I even
typed out option one. Option two. So it was really clear. And then option three was like scrap the
whole thing. So that was fun.
Behind every night spent making the kids' lunches,
there's a lot of suspense.
Will they finally eat the veggies?
Will the pasto survive the first bite?
Will the lunchbox come home empty, half full, or come home at all?
And will you finish episode 8 before you're done slicing the cucumbers?

Earl. She likes to control everyone and tell everyone. Okay, well, control is a harsh word. I would
say that's a harsh word. I am more outspoken. Growing up a lot of the times because she was so
quiet. I would speak for like the both of us. Now I'm working on like thinking a moment, reeling it in.
Thinking before I speak.

When I was 14 years old, I was kidnapped and held captive for nine months.
I survived, and I've spent my life exploring how other people survive what should have destroyed them.
I'm Elizabeth Smart, and these are the Survivor Files.
I just remember this low, taunting voice next to my ear saying, shut up, don't say anything.
Every week, I'm with survivors who live through the unthinkable.
I knew if he woke up, without a doubt, he was going to hurt me.
I started feeling that there was someone at the end of my bed, and I just started screaming.
They are abducted, stalked, controlled, and nearly silenced.
But these aren't stories about what's taken from them.
There's stories about what it takes to make it out alive.

Hi, this is Kylie Breakman.
Angel Geratana. Jeremy Colhain.

And we're the hosts of the Artists on Artists on Artists on Artists Podcast.
The Improvised Character Comedy Podcast where each week a new panel of artists discuss their craft.
Join us for a panel of wellness influencers.
What I try to do is faux journal.
I don't know.
Have you guys heard of faux journaling?
Yeah, it's reading.
It's called reading.
So we don't like to use that word anymore.
Okay.
A panel of New York.
Yorker cartoonists. Have you guys done Terry Gross's Peloton class? No! I've been dying too. I'm so sorry.
I'm seeing a reading of Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes by Audra McDonald's at the Wonderland
Bookstore on 14th. That's crazy. I went to the Wonderland Bookstore yesterday and I heard
Nora Jones do a reading of Zero Dark 30. No way. You have to come to the last bookstore though.
Kim Cottrell is reading the guitar tabs of yesterday. A panel of Eurovision participants. And we
do a little Halloween sometimes.
Does the Pope dress up?
He winks on Halloween.
He gets right up next to the microphone.
I hear you can almost hear the eyelashes hit each other.
You never seen Italy so quiet as when the Pope gets up to wink on Halloween.

Okay, so did you know that you can accidentally repost things on Instagram?
Because let me tell you it was accidentally reposted on my page.
Okay.
You know about reposting, right?
No.
Not in stories.
Not in stories.
I'm talking about that little arrow button that almost looks like the arrows.
But that just reposts it out there.
It reposts it onto your feed.
So that when people go look and scroll through your feed, they would come across this content.
The exact definition from Instagram is, Instagram reposting is when you share a public reel or feed post to your own.
profile using the repost button instead of sharing it only to stories the original creator gets
credited and the reposts appear and the repost tab on your profile well do you know what was sitting in
my repost tab on my profile for i don't even know how long and i had to delete it because i thought
why but it's so you uh you know you can accidentally click save on a video you don't mean to sometimes
when i'm going through comments like i'll hit hide and i'm like i didn't mean to hide that comment so then i go and i
have to like unhide it because I don't want that person that's following me that left the comment
thinking I hit it hid their comment that happened the the other day with something sort of negative
that someone sent me but I don't mind it being on my page but it looked like I hit it and I couldn't
have that person think that I couldn't take it I couldn't take it I couldn't take the negativity
so I went and I unhit it and I put it back up but anyway you can just accidentally click the buttons
well, did those videos come up on your page of like how much I ate in the day as a fat girl?
I'm not saying this.
That's what they say.
Well, yes.
And you've sent me one.
Oh, yeah, probably because I couldn't believe how many donuts there were and they looked really good.
It got reposted on my page.
Wait.
I will say I sometimes enjoy watching.
Well, yeah, there is something oddly satisfying.
I mean, that's why there's millions of views.
But I just thought, I didn't want someone to think that I, that's what I reposted that,
because I don't know, I don't know that person.
I don't know what's going on with them.
Like, I don't know.
It's sort of like a mix between muckbang and.
A mookbong.
Oh, is that what's called?
I don't know.
I always saw, is it a mook bong?
Is it muck bang?
I kind of like yours better.
Well, whatever.
If y'all aren't familiar with that, that's eating on camera.
And some people will pay for it.
what do you mean like they'll pay to watch people eat but oh i didn't know that yeah it's it's a it's a
thing but they they like the sound effects they like the food like ASMR and i just thought well this
needs to be a PSA because it's easy to accidentally repost who people should go onto their
instagram repost and see if they have anything hanging out in there that shouldn't be there was that
the only thing you'd repost that's it that's it that's the only thing that was there which is like so like
Why would you repost that?
Yeah, that's hilarious.
I've never had that issue that is a good.
P.S.
I need to go check my.
Should I check?
I mean, yeah, check and see if you have anything.
What I do all the time is on TikTok.
I constantly am sending people videos on accident.
Because the share and it automatically shares with the last person you shared with.
Button is really close to the bottom where you would swipe up.
So I've already told it, they always got my friend Taylor.
So she already knows not anytime I send you a TikTok video I don't mean to
You don't have that problem I don't I don't share a lot I don't okay do a lot on TikTok
Oh my gosh I have a reposted video but it's what is it I don't remember reposting this it's actually
Probably didn't do it on purpose but it's it's our feeling things video oh
Okay okay oh cryocat does it on purpose it's the lesson on boundaries that changed my brain chemistry
Okay but I'm I'm thinking you probably didn't do that on purpose I only did
one so I probably didn't do it on purpose. Thank God that's what it was. Yeah and it wasn't
yeah. Does it help is that is I guess we could do it on our own. I haven't thought I guess we're
just not savvy enough with the reposting. I feel like a grandma right now because I don't fully
understand it and the fact that I have that what I eat in a day up on my page for so long.
It's like my grandma's funeral. We live streamed it. Um, it just. Okay. It was COVID. It's COVID. Oh yeah.
Yeah. So we live streamed it on.
Facebook because like even my sister she was she had just gotten pregnant so she didn't go to it like a lot of
people that wanted to be there didn't go to it so we I brought a tripod and I I live streamed on
Facebook and her neighbor posted like a video of half of her face to like the Facebook the live
stream group but it's she was just trying to like watch the video and she took a picture of herself
and posted it so like that's what but you that's like what is reminding me of like
Like I accidentally reposted this video.
That lady was like 87 years old.
You are in your 40s.
Yeah.
Well, I don't know how much money these videos are making because there are so many views.
If you end up with one of these videos on your page from these content creators, like you scroll through and that's how they start every video.
Well, here's what I eat in a day is about girl.
And then they're dipping like a donut in a latte.
Yes.
In a latte.
And I'm like, I kind of want to try that.
But is that good?
I don't feel like that a soggy donut.
What?
I don't know.
That's what gets me when she does that.
But there's a specific girl that does those videos that started coming up on my feed
because once you watch one, you know, the algorithm.
But note I noticed that I kind of got like about is because she got really like a big following,
she now they're all ads.
So she ends up eating whatever it is.
But it's really just an ad versus that I don't think she really was going to eat that in that day.
You know what I mean?
The content has changed
So it's not, it doesn't feel as food
I mean food
I know but I'm like
Before it was like literally
What she was eating every day
And I'm like what is she having for dinner today?
Or like what was her snack?
And now it's like
I'm having a poppy or whatever it is
I'm like were you gonna have that
Are you having that because you're getting paid to?
Yeah true
Well if she operates like us
People change
I know she operates like us
Sometimes we have stuff on our page
But we genuinely like it
She may not agree to do it
if she doesn't actually like it.
Yeah, sure.
Okay.
Like, I like to choose to believe that people have,
still have an authenticity around what they're like,
oh, hey, I would love to eat this in a video,
but I actually don't like it.
I don't like that, so I have to pass.
But maybe for her, it's like, oh, my gosh, I love that.
This is a dream deal.
Yay.
Okay.
That's fair.
Fair.
Fair.
I have another PSA.
In case you're traveling and you have a long delay at an airport,
I saw that we're allowed to put hands.
hammocks up at the airport. Like if if there's a pole or area where you can string a hammock up,
you're allowed to do it. The TSC confirmed TSC. The TSA confirmed this. What does TSA stand for?
Transportation Safety Administration. Wait, really? I don't know. That's what I'm guessing. Okay.
Wait, where would I put a hammock up at the airport? Between pillars while waiting for flights.
you're trying to like sleep there okay when I go to Ecuador in a couple weeks I have a really long
layover at this airport in Ecuador once I get there and it's going to kind of be the middle of the
night and I was like well what am I going to do luckily the hotel has or the airport has a hotel
attached but I could also just take a hammock I just am thinking about I don't want to sleep on the
floor that's fair I'm thinking about the national airport and I'm like where would
I put a hammock up.
Pillar to pillar.
But I'm trying to think of where are two pillars, like where are two pillars that are close
enough that I wouldn't be weird.
Okay.
Transportation Security Administration.
What did I say?
Association.
Administration.
Oh, I did?
Yeah.
Okay.
Nailed it.
What would you have thought it stood for?
Because I was just guessing based off.
I don't know.
When you said transportation, my head I go, duh.
Yeah, because TSA.
I was thinking that.
I was thinking that could stand for anything.
Teamwork, Society of America.
Yeah.
What?
Teen.
Troulesome.
I don't know.
Troulesome safety aviation.
Yes.
It could be anything.
Okay.
Yeah.
Look at you.
I saw something recently.
I guess this is a PSA too.
Oh, so many PSAs.
Wow.
What was our first PSA?
Oh, check what you reposted on Instagram.
Pack a hammock when you.
when you travel just in case.
That's in case.
Which my son went to church camp this summer and he came back with a hammock.
So now we've got one because otherwise.
He bought it at church camp?
Yeah.
Huh.
Bought a hammock.
Okay, well, you better pack that hammock.
Now I've got to, now I'm going to take it to Ecuador.
Maybe learn how to set it up before you get to the airport.
And then now the third PSA, which you got.
Yeah.
So apparently there was an etiquette expert that said you should not congratulate people on getting
engaged. Why? And I agree with this. I've talked about this. I don't know what I want here before,
but do you know what I'm going to say? Now that I mean, I asked why and then when you
quickly just said that you've talked about this before, I do remember you saying and I guess I kind
of agree with it, but I also feel like, okay, it's a little ridiculous. Yeah. I mean, if you say
congratulations, people, my feelings on this are when people say congratulations, they're, they mean
well and I get all of that. But I also agree.
with what this person is saying where she's saying congratulations can imply that the engagement
is an achievement and it's not necessarily like an achievement that I've earned this thing.
It's more of just something that's happened.
And the reason that I felt this a long time ago is my friend was telling me before I was
engaged.
My friend was telling me her friend got engaged and she said I have never gotten more comments
or attention on any post I've ever posted on my social media
since I've gotten in, since I posted my engagement.
And she was a good, it's so weird because I've done so much with my life.
And I've done all these things and I've traveled to all these places and I've achieved
all of this stuff in work and in school.
And I am a good friend and all these things in my life.
But then this is the thing that people are most excited about or are, again, congratulating me
or giving me the most attention for.
Yeah, I get that.
People are just excited for you.
Yes.
People are pumped, but I get it.
Listen, if I end up with the handyman,
y'all can congratulate me all you want.
Well, in the comments of this post,
I think people were like on your side being like,
oh, get over it.
Like, it's not that big of a deal.
But I do get the sentiment.
She said you should say things like,
I'm happy for you best wishes to express excitement
without the connotation of congratulations.
Okay, that I can get on board with.
It's just reframing it in a way that doesn't make it seem like, oh, you finally have achieved, like, what women are supposed to do.
She said getting married is significant.
However, achievements are typically efforts that require skill or accomplishment, like a career milestone or completing a personal goal.
So just some thought.
I like it.
Just some thought out there.
You can take it.
You can leave it.
You could think about it sometimes or never.
Behind every night spent making the kids' lunches, there's a lot of suspense.
Will they finally eat the veggies?
Will the pastos survive the first bite?
Will the lunchbox come home empty, half full, or come home at all?
And will you finish episode 8 before you're done slicing the cucumbers?

I do have a gift idea.
This isn't so much a PSA.
It's just something sweet that my friend told me about that I thought I would pass along to
anybody else. My friend recently went on a family beach vacation and she had inspo too from something
else she had seen someone post, but they had their whole family there. It was a reunion. There was a
beach trip and they were texting a lot of things back and forth. And at the beginning of the
trip, she told everybody, hey, treat this text thread as like our memories. So if there were any
inside jokes, like go ahead and throw them on the thread, any pictures you want to share, put them
in this family text thread.
And then after the trip was over,
she had the text thread
printed and put into a book.
And the grandma of her family,
her,
I don't know if it's her mom's mom or her dad's mom,
one of the grandmothers was like in charge of the entire trip
and like rented the beach house
and paid for most everything.
And they printed the book
and then gave it to the grandma as a gift.
But I would assume everybody on the trip
might want a little memory like that,
I thought it was really cute, but you've got to make sure your texts are, like, fun.
But some people's family text threads are really fun to read through, and you can kind of relive the entire trip through the text thread.
That's so creative.
And the pictures that were on there.
Isn't that really sweet and special?
You might have to give a PSA when you're telling people about the text thread to keep it.
Well, maybe depending on your family.
I was going to say keep it PG, but your family might.
Yeah.
So people, it might not really matter.
just if they're, I think it's just inside jokes or special things. And that's why she did,
she didn't tell them all what it was going to be for, but she was, he told everybody to be engaged
and to. Yeah. Yeah. Share quotes or inside jokes or, oh, this was so funny when this happened today.
Or, oh, here's a group shot of our family. And then that way, instead of compiling pictures and
having to put everything together, it all lived in the text thread. And then it was printed out.
Yeah.
As a little coffee table book.
I love that gift idea.
And I want to do that.
We're going on a trip, a big family trip next summer.
So I think I...
Right, give everybody a heads up.
Yeah.
Be like, don't tell them you or didn't do the book, but be like, I need our text started
to be epic.
Yeah, so say funny things.
Yeah, be funny.
Lead by example.
You show them.
I have to be funny.
You show them, cat.
Speaking of gifts and special things, we've got our Hasbro moment.
Here's the email that we received.
it's from Bree in Boston.
Hey, Amy and Kat.
I'm so excited to tell you about a very special educator at our school, Mr. Hyatt.
Mr. Hyatt is our school counselor,
and he is genuinely one of the most incredible people you could ever hope to find in education.
Our district serves many children who have experienced significant adversity
and often face challenges that most adults will never have to endure.
But I truly believe Mr. Hyatt was called to this work.
I've never seen someone with more patience, kindness, or compassion.
We have an incredible team of educators at our school,
but the way Mr. Hyatt meets students exactly where they are
de-escalates difficult situations with such grace
and helps them feel seen and safe is an incredible gift.
Not only to those students, but to our entire school community.
When I saw you were teasing, partnering with Hasbro to celebrate educators,
I knew I had to tell you about him.
Mr. Hyatt is famous around our school for always having games in his office.
Sometimes they're simply there to bring a smile to a student's face, but more often, they're a way to create a safe space for a child to calm down, let their guard down, or begin opening up about what's really going on.
He's also known for some high-stakes monopoly games in the lunchroom that students absolutely love him for.
In a world where it feels like so many people are living on a short fuse, especially in education, I just want to recognize someone who shows up every single day with endless.
patience and a heart for the kids he serves. He meets them where they are, walks alongside them
and helps them become who they're capable of being. Our entire school is better because of Mr.
Hyatt, and we are so grateful for him and for every educator and staff member who faithfully shows up
for our students each day. Thank you for celebrating these amazing people. Love the show. Bree
in Boston. So, Bree, isn't this special? I thought, oh, I just saw watering cat's eyes. I was like,
is she going to? I'm not crying.
but I wouldn't be surprised because it's a counselor well yeah that and just you're you know
eight and a half months pregnant and cry at a lot so thank you for telling us about mr. Hyatt
when I was reading the email I was thinking of Theo of golden I know you haven't finished that book
yet but I think of how I pictured Theo looking in my mind which I really have no idea what he looks
like and I have no idea what Mr. Hyatt looks like looks like but I'm kind of
of picturing just this beloved person.
Yeah.
That makes a real impact on people.
And Hasbro has generously given us gift cards to hand out to teachers.
And so Bree, Mr. Hyatt, will be getting $500 from Hasbro for some more games and other supplies.
Bring more joy to kids' lives.
I want to get in in one of those Monopoly game.
six Monopoly games. Oh, do you think you could win? Absolutely not, but I am a new lover of
Monopoly and so I just love that. I mean, I love a educator or specifically a counselor, which I think
is even more important for kids to feel safe with, that they're having fun with him and they have like,
I mean, that's, again, a memory they're going to have as we played Monopoly in the lunchroom with
Mr. Hyatt. And then I felt safe enough to go to his office and be able to talk to him because I knew
he was somebody I could trust.
Yeah.
So love celebrating teachers and counselors.
Yes.
And Bree, thank you for the email.
If you all have a teacher, if you're listening right now and you're like,
we have someone that's very similar to Mr. Hyatt or another educator.
I guess they don't have to be a teacher.
They could be a counselor.
Just someone that works in education.
You can send us an email.
Hey, they're at feeling things podcast.com.
They may end up on a future episode and they may be.
a recipient of the Hasbro moment. So thank you Hasbro. Thank you, Mr. Hyatt, and thank you, Bree.
You can also leave us a voicemail about someone that would be cool. So far, we've just had emails,
but you can call 877-207-207-2077 and leave your own little voicemail about the special
teacher, educator as well. And we're just so thankful for Hasbro over these last few weeks,
and we've got several more coming up where we're highlighting their games today.
We've got Candyland, Shoots and Ladders and Hi-Ho Cherio.
Which is, High Ho Cherio is my childhood, I feel like.
I feel like Candy Land for me.
Really?
For sure.
Yes.
I mean, Hi-Ho-Therio and Shoots and Letters, they all are.
They're so nostalgic.
Which I love that you said you're becoming obsessed with Monopoly now.
But did you, you played as a kid?
I never played until this.
past fall. Wow. And then I got a Monopoly board for my birthday. Because I was like, wait,
this game's really fun. Oh, that's interesting that you didn't play at your house as a kid, but you played
all the other ones. Yeah. That was just not. I think maybe because that game was longer,
we had Candy Land. You can play a couple rounds, you know? Yeah. Versus Monopoly. But I do think it's
so important to celebrate all the little wins, not just the big ones. I've been focusing on the little
wins in my life more recently. Yeah, I think so too. I think with my kid going back to school,
my son, it's kind of crazy that now my daughter is starting a little bit of her college career,
but my son just started high school and it's like, okay, celebrating all the wins, like even just
him finishing his homework for the night. Like I would be like, yes, we did it. When he shows
kindness to others, like I love seeing like his caring heart, celebrating those moments and
reading another book. Oh my gosh, summer reading.
we had to cram that in at the end,
but I think it kind of jump started him getting into some books.
Those moments deserve to all be recognized,
and as a mom want to make sure to do that too.
Yeah, and I think Candy Land,
hi-ho, Cherio, shoots and ladders,
all of those games are good ways to celebrate little wins
because it's not just who wins the game.
The real prize and reward is spending time with people.
Around the table.
Yeah.
Without devices.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So if you're looking for a simple way to say,
celebrate the kids in your life. Well, you can find these Hasbro games at your local Walmart,
or you can go to the link in today's show notes. It'll be in there, and it'll bring a little more
joy into your home. I was going to hold up the Candy Land box, but my cat is literally sitting
on it right now. Maybe she wants to play. I think she's telling me. She was sitting on Ohio
Cherio earlier, so maybe she's just like, Mom, I want to play. This is nostalgic for me. Like,
And playing it with my kids.
This is definitely they've elevated it.
I was going to say those pieces are bigger.
This is way cooler.
Yeah.
Oh, we're going to be busting this out,
celebrate little wins around our kitchen table.
Yeah.
Okay, I know we were talking about Theo of Golden,
and we know he's an older man.
I thought we kind of closed with something that I saw that was so stinking cute.
It was a seven-year-old man wearing a shirt with seven-year-old texting coats.
on it okay and you know we had the acronym earlier tsa you're like what does that even stand for

people or is that universal brb yeah it's i guess like my grandma wouldn't know what that means

warming you up okay warming you up for the this elderly version here but i'm like oh man if i was into

okay ADT or sorry dang my dyslexia ATD at the doctors so this is like if you're texting like
just to know the code BFF best friend Phil BTW bring the wheelchair BYOT bring your own teeth
FWIW forgot where I was wait this is actually
really funny because FWIW it actually means for what it's worth. So they're taking like younger people's
things and they're trying. Oh, this is funny. Okay. You get. I get it. I got it. I got it. I just see what I saw it. I thought it was
really funny. And then I started doing it and I thought, well, this. Yeah, sometimes I read your face and I'm like,
little cat doesn't like it. Um, G. Chi. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. G. Do me to say that one. Why is this hard?
