Cadre Today

Foreign hitchhike bus or Yellow Cabot. Need to rhyme in a Muppet show, don't you? A little Echoline Trio Muppet cover there. Moving right along. This week is moving right along, y'. All. And I hope you in this moment are feeling a good amount of positive acceleration. Mel Amar, Marisa. Nice to see y' all today. It is Thursday, July 10th. C. this is Cadre Today, Kari Smzobs. Nice to see y'. All. Hey, I'm glad I'm here. I'm glad you're here. I know what I know and I care about you. It's always true.

It really is. There's not a lot of things that are always true, but that always is. Emily, nice to see you. You know, yesterday some. It's so funny. You want to know what this is? My depression. Can't get out of bed here. And it's been now praised two days in a row in Cadre today. I think it's one of the things about being a short haired individual, messy hair still often looks like purposeful hair. So I'll take it. Hey, yesterday we had the opportunity to get some of our Cadre contributors together.

Jamie, nice to see you. Good morning. Good morning. And I got to meet the one and only Brittany for the first time in person. And, and, and Carrie. Lots, lots, lots of individuals. Dan Griffin's in town. It was a joy. Dan sang for us. Check out the Rusty's Band if you haven't yet. That's Dan's band. You can find them on Apple Music. They're pretty great. Marisa, you would like the Rusty's Band. Just seeing that right now. Look up the Rusty's R U S T Y S Band. You would like them. Anyways, it made me think about a great message to remind y' all on this Thursday.

Here's my formula for how I move through this world with other people. If you don't know this about me, I'm a big old introvert, live with a lot of panic. Being around people is the number one most draining experience I ever encounter in this world. And you may be like, but jc, you spend time with people all the. You spend time with people all the time. I go, yes, I do. It's kind of the humor of the world. My call is to spend time with people. And the most difficult thing for me to do in this world is to spend time with people.

So I'm always learning. Here's my formula for how I engage with other people. I lead with appreciation and I assume connection. I'LL say it again. Step one, I lead with appreciation. And number two, I assume connection. So when I got to meet Britney yesterday for the first time in person, Britney is someone I listen to on the radio all the time and follow in the, in the socials and I, I feel and hear Britney's energy all over the place. But yesterday, first time meeting in person, so what did I do?

I led with appreciation. I was like, oh my gosh, it's you. And then number two, I assumed, and I know sometimes we're not supposed to assume. I go, I'm going to assume all over the place. I'm going to assume that there's connection to be had and voila is great. We've been texting, we're talking, we're getting coffee next week. All the things from zero to connection in a snap of a finger. Now you may be like, ah, yeah, but what if people don't want to connect? I don't want to waste people's time.

I don't know what to talk about. It's worth the risk to lead with appreciation because why not start an interaction with something positive, something progressive, something that could innately make someone's day better. Why not start that way? And number two, assuming connection. I'm sorry, this world needs more people risking to assume connection now than ever. And that'll always be the case. And it was a beautiful, beautiful moment. And I'll tell you, I find moments like that every, every single day.

Oh, there's another one of my new in person friends, which Carrie, I don't know how we've never actually met in person before, but it's worth the risk. It's worth the risk to walk in, to say, I appreciate your existence in this space, in this moment, in this world. And number two, I'm going to risk to assume that there's connection already in existence that we just need to stir up. So no matter where you are, no matter what's going on today, that's my wish for you, that you run into someone and in the moment of you go, hey, person.

I don't know yet. And that's what I like to call strangers. I appreciate you. And number two, I bet we got some connections. Start there, see what happens. Y' all have a great day. Jamie, Jim, good morning. It's so funny. I saw the gym, I was like, yeah, I actually did. The way that my body works, if I don't do some walking in the morning before things get going, my, my non happy body is even less happy. So I did get my gym in. But then I was like, oh, good morning. Yes, yes, yes. GMTU to my friend.

All right, y'. All. Back to a little bit of alkaline trio covering some of my favorite beings in the world, the Muppets. We'll see you tomorrow. Fancy free. Come share it with me. Moving right along. Have a good one, y'. All. Show on the road. Get the show on the road. Y' all have a great Thursday. Bye.
