284: Life is in session

Betsy talks about her beginning journey to Iceland and the lessons learned. Transcription: Hey everybody, welcome to the show. Welcome fellow adventurers. I’m excited for this show, I’m going to talk to you a little bit about my trip so far to Iceland. But here’s something I want to say before I forget. I think I told you like maybe a month ago, if you’re a regular listener, then you might have heard this, if you’re new here. Hi, and thank you and welcome. But if you’ve been here a while and you’ve heard me talk about how I hired a Podcast Producer. So last month, when I was at the beach, I hired a product Podcast Producer. And then we started working together this month, mid month, but she is ahead of the game. So typically, I record the podcast, and then you guys get the podcast, like a couple hours after I record it, which is how come every once in a while I’ll miss a show, or it’ll be late or it doesn’t come on time. It’s probably not like the most effective way to do things. It’s just how I’ve always done it. Because I’ve always been the one that’s like, produced it and done everything, which is also how come the audio is not that great. And you can hear me, you know, talking and swallowing or whatever, you know what I mean? I don’t want to say that because I don’t want to put that in your head. But you know what I’m saying the it needed to be professionally done. It was time, it was probably time a long time ago. But I tell you all this, because I’m going to give you an episode today, I really want to give you the updates here. And then you’re going to start getting updates, you’re going to start getting podcasts that might feel like I like a little off like what like like I might be talking about something that’s just from a little bit ago, if I reference something. Now, hopefully the things that I talked about are timeless. But I wanted to just let you know, that you might notice like some different stuff. I really hope you notice I hope you noticed like the audios way better. And I hope you notice all kinds of things. But anyway, enough about that. I am here I am in Iceland. So I want to tell you about this trip a little bit. And, you know, I typically want to do a show and like tell you about something that I’ve learned and things that are happening and there has been so much. And sometimes I feel like it’s a little indulgent to just tell you about my life. But I feel like even like the last 48 hours, there’s a lot to talk about. So let’s just dive right in. Okay, so if you’re new here, and this is the first time you’re listening to these episodes, a couple months, or a couple of weeks ago, I did an episode where I talked about how I saw a tick tock about the Northern Lights. And it was really beautiful. And I was mesmerized. And I immediately, like, I mean, I watched it like 20 times, then I immediately was like, I want that, like I just chose it immediately. I just knew. And you know, that might sound a little funny, because you’re because you might be thinking, I don’t know, you might not, but I’m gonna just mind read, you may be thinking like, well, that must be good to be able to choose that. But I have a job. And I can’t just choose that, like, how good for you. But I can’t do that. And I want to throw a wrench in that idea. Okay, but hang with me. So I just want to get this out for the new people. So I see this tick tock, it’s magical. And I’m obsessed. I like cry, I have emotion. And I say out loud, I want that the very next day, I’m in a Facebook group, I see somebody post about how they are putting together a small group and there’s one spot left...
