Speaker 1: Welcome to the Trauma Therapist Podcast. My name is Gamiferson.
Speaker 1: I interview incredible people who've dedicated their lives to helping
Speaker 1: those who've been impacted by trauma. A big thank you
Speaker 1: to our sponsors and our guests who are supporting this show.
Speaker 2: Hello everyone, My name is Christina Consalvlos and I'm a
Speaker 2: guest host for The Trauma Therapist Podcast by Guy McPherson,
Speaker 2: and I'm super stoked to interview.
Speaker 3: Alana Brennan today. Hello Alana, welcome on. Hi Christina, Thank
Speaker 3: you so much for having me, of.
Speaker 2: Course, and before we started what Before I started recording,
Speaker 2: I was talking about the way in which I found
Speaker 2: you is through your post in activating the voice and
Speaker 2: especially for those with chronic illness.
Speaker 3: So I'd love for you to.
Speaker 2: Tell us how you personally got to this point of
Speaker 2: this being a healing modality for you and for your clients.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just wrapped my first workshop series for women
Speaker 4: with chronic illness and Exploring the Voice last night, so
Speaker 4: this is the perfect time to talk about this. For me,
Speaker 4: this journey was pretty organic. I grew up in a
Speaker 4: musical family. My mom's a vocalist, my dad side of
Speaker 4: the family had a lot of musicians. I grew up
Speaker 4: with music as a big part of my culture, and
Speaker 4: I love to sing, but my voice was kind of
Speaker 4: like stuck in the back of my throat.
Speaker 3: It was very like frog sounding almost.
Speaker 4: And through my journey with chronic illness, as many of us,
Speaker 4: when we start when our bodies start to fail, it
Speaker 4: might be the first time in your life where you
Speaker 4: have to set some boundaries for yourself. So as a
Speaker 4: woman growing up as a people pleaser, you know, I
Speaker 4: put everybody else first.
Speaker 3: I thought of everyone's emotions before my own.
Speaker 4: And then once I started this journey with nerve pain
Speaker 4: and mole toxicity and all these things, I had to
Speaker 4: start saying no. And it was very interesting what happened
Speaker 4: because I started speaking up for myself, which was really
Speaker 4: scary and induced a lot of guilt. But as I
Speaker 4: started to do that, my singing voice changed. So I
Speaker 4: had done technical training in the past, but at this
Speaker 4: point in my life, I wasn't doing any training. I
Speaker 4: wasn't even singing very much, but I was starting to
Speaker 4: say no. I was starting to set boundaries, and all
Speaker 4: of a sudden, one day it was like I could
Speaker 4: like belt, like adele, and I was like, WHOA, where
Speaker 4: did that come from? Like this is so interesting, there's
Speaker 4: something here, and that's kind of led me on this
Speaker 4: journey to become a voice coach and tie in the
Speaker 4: somatic piece of not just you know, training yourself to
Speaker 4: sing with the mind, but how can you teach your
Speaker 4: body that it's safe enough to speak up and how
Speaker 4: that actually changes your muscles and your physiology. So it's
Speaker 4: been this really cool journey of self discovery that I'm
Speaker 4: so passionate about helping other people with.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure so many people listening can relate to this,
Speaker 2: right the people pleasing and realizing that, oh, I need
Speaker 2: to start setting boundaries, right because at some point the
Speaker 2: body begins saying no for us when we don't.
Speaker 3: Say no for it, and we continue.
Speaker 2: To press that override button of like, oh but it's fine,
Speaker 2: it's okay, I can do it this one time.
Speaker 3: They really need my help.
Speaker 2: I need to underlining theme rescue save them consistently. I mean,
Speaker 2: our bodies will start to break down if we're also
Speaker 2: not taking good care of ourselves at the same time.
Speaker 2: And I know in my own breakdown, if you will.
Speaker 2: That is when I had to reclaim my voice. That
Speaker 2: is when I had to start saying no. Finally, this
Speaker 2: isn't an alignment and trusting that the yes, you know,
Speaker 2: the yes is.
Speaker 3: To the things that were in alignment would come. And
Speaker 3: they did.
Speaker 2: But there's also a lot of grief right on that
Speaker 2: route of saying no with a lot of people benefit
Speaker 2: from you saying yes, from you being a people pleaser.
Speaker 2: And I'm curious, like, what has that looked like for
Speaker 2: you and for the clients you've worked with on this
Speaker 2: path of boundaries of creating boundaries.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the truth, we can think of chronic illness as
Speaker 4: a lifetime of unspoken nos, and there's such a correlation
Speaker 4: and there's been data that's come out about those repressed
Speaker 4: emotions and how we internalize them and they become chronic illness.
Speaker 4: So on the journey of like reclaiming our power, you know,
Speaker 4: usually we swing the.
Speaker 3: Pendulum the other way.
Speaker 4: So a lot of times when we start to say no,
Speaker 4: it's like eruption. So I see, I saw that within
Speaker 4: myself and my clients a lot, where it's like people
Speaker 4: went from never speaking up for themselves to like blowing
Speaker 4: up at their boss at work or something like that,
Speaker 4: and having grace and compassion for yourself. That that's kind
Speaker 4: of part of the journey, is like the lifetime of
Speaker 4: unspoken nose kind of starts like a volcano, and then
Speaker 4: we feel so guilty after because as a people pleaser,
Speaker 4: it's like, oh my gosh, but I love the quote
Speaker 4: I was taught to keep the piece until I realized
Speaker 4: whose piece I was keeping. And so it's really checking
Speaker 4: in with like, that's great, you don't want to hurt
Speaker 4: other people, but are you hurting yourself? And your body
Speaker 4: is telling you, through chronic illness or pain that yes,
Speaker 4: I am hurting myself by keeping this inside.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's it's so so true, and it's something you know,
Speaker 2: I really had to learn for myself, and like codependence
Speaker 2: anonymous for those who don't know, it's one of it's
Speaker 2: a twelve step program and it's it could it could
Speaker 2: easily be called people pleasers anonymous and understanding this survival
Speaker 2: response that's no different than fight or flight.
Speaker 3: There's a freeze response and there's the fawning response.
Speaker 2: Where you know it feels safer to quote unquote keep
Speaker 2: the peace than it does to essentially speak your truth
Speaker 2: and live live authentically. But in doing so, it's really
Speaker 2: not sustainable because you're keeping your body in a fight
Speaker 2: or flight state, which is continuously releasing cortisol, which in
Speaker 2: fact is impacting your nervous system and your immune system functions.
Speaker 2: When we think about, like you know, someone listening, wait,
Speaker 2: how does this, what does this have to do with
Speaker 2: chronic illness?
Speaker 3: I'm so I'm so confused.
Speaker 2: In not living authentically and speaking your truth, you in
Speaker 2: fact are not able to listen to and to some
Speaker 2: degree honor your body and what it's asking you for.
Speaker 3: So your body starts speaking loudly if you will.
Speaker 2: It starts as I say, it starts as a whisper
Speaker 2: before it turns into a screen, and eventually it can
Speaker 2: start screaming aka turning into various symptoms or autoimmune diseases,
Speaker 2: or pain physical.
Speaker 3: Pain in the body.
Speaker 2: It can manifest in so many different ways. But also
Speaker 2: in I remember reading bringing up doctor Gebori Matte, when
Speaker 2: the body says no, he says often what he sees,
Speaker 2: and you just spoke to this is this rage that
Speaker 2: comes up first, like just complete and uttering.
Speaker 3: It's that pendulum swinging to that other side. You were
Speaker 3: over here and now just.
Speaker 2: Swine to this side, and it's actually a very healthy response,
Speaker 2: like it's nothing to be afraid of. It's like, okay,
Speaker 2: we're here, we can we well, we're going to find
Speaker 2: the middle path. We need to start someplace. This is
Speaker 2: you kind of cracking the shell if you will.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yes, anger shows us where our boundaries are being crossed.
Speaker 4: And our culture has really taught us, especially as a woman,
Speaker 4: that there's no place for you to be angry. There's
Speaker 4: no place and so in voice, in the voice work
Speaker 4: I do, that is like a safe outlet where you
Speaker 4: can let the anger out and express And whether that
Speaker 4: needs to be like a scream into your pillow or
Speaker 4: I do a lot of work with toning humming, but
Speaker 4: it's a way to move the energy, which you know,
Speaker 4: the breath starts in the belly and it rises all
Speaker 4: the way up and out the throat.
Speaker 3: That's our channel for release. So yeah, we.
Speaker 4: Need to find healthy ways to express our anger. It's
Speaker 4: very important. You know, it doesn't have to be once.
Speaker 4: Once you start working with anger, instead of just trying
Speaker 4: to hold it in until you erupt, there are ways
Speaker 4: to express it in a more healthy way or to
Speaker 4: feel seen and heard in a group like I do
Speaker 4: a workshops with with groups where we can feel validated
Speaker 4: and seen and heard in our chronic illness because that's
Speaker 4: so important. And yeah, I think it's like a lifetime
Speaker 4: of not listening to your body when we get into
Speaker 4: that chronic pain and chronic illness, and we're so programmed
Speaker 4: by society that we might not even know we're not
Speaker 4: listening or that we're not in truth. But disease means disase, right,
Speaker 4: so we're not in alignment with our authentic truth. We
Speaker 4: just might have been taught that it's not safe to
Speaker 4: be that person or you shouldn't be that person.
Speaker 3: But I, yeah, I really believe the body is trying
Speaker 3: to get our attention and bring us back into alignment. Yeah,
Speaker 3: a thousand percent. And there's there's this belief.
Speaker 2: That feeling angry or just anger in general is not
Speaker 2: it's like not an ethical feeling. Like everything else is
Speaker 2: kind of acceptable, but this but this feeling, when in fact,
Speaker 2: it's just as important. It's part you know, it's part
Speaker 2: of the spectrum of emotions. And when we don't like,
Speaker 2: when we don't feel it, we don't heal it, and
Speaker 2: it does go somewhere.
Speaker 3: It's it's stor to me, it's stored in the nervous system.
Speaker 2: And you know we're saying now, maybe the body doesn't
Speaker 2: keep the score exactly, however, I believe the nervous system,
Speaker 2: the nervous system does. And for those for those listening
Speaker 2: or watching who are interested, okay, like I want to
Speaker 2: feel my feelings, you know, with especially anger, Like this
Speaker 2: isn't something I'm I mean, I know, for so long
Speaker 2: I was, I was so uncomfortable with my own anger
Speaker 2: that I would say I don't experience anger.
Speaker 3: I would, I would, I would verbalize this to many people.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know what anger feels like. I've
Speaker 2: never punched a pillow. Like my idea of what expressing
Speaker 2: anger was didn't exist in my repertoire until I really
Speaker 2: started doing this healing right and getting in touch with
Speaker 2: this emotion. So for for those listening, what are ways
Speaker 2: in which someone could a get in touch.
Speaker 3: With that emotion and be express it.
Speaker 2: And something I've read that I believe too, is that
Speaker 2: the that the opposite of depression is expression.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm curious.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love to kind of take it back into
Speaker 4: the history of how we've.
Speaker 3: Gotten to where we've gotten.
Speaker 4: So we know that eighty percent of autoimmune cases are
Speaker 4: in women. And if we look back at our mother's generation,
Speaker 4: grandmother's great grandmothers, you know, how have we gotten here
Speaker 4: to this point where we feel so unsafe to express Well,
Speaker 4: it was, it wasn't safe.
Speaker 3: It was you were risking your life to speak up.
Speaker 3: You were risking your life to get angry when you lived.
Speaker 4: In a male dominated world where your husband could you know,
Speaker 4: send you to a hospital and give you a lobotomy
Speaker 4: if you were hysterical, which means uterus, right, So they're
Speaker 4: that trauma of speaking up as a woman lives in
Speaker 4: ourselves and so remembering that that feeling that you're feeling
Speaker 4: could go back multiple generations.
Speaker 3: So you're healing not just for you, but for many generations.
Speaker 3: And that's a big job.
Speaker 4: That's a big job, So don't expect for it to
Speaker 4: happen overnight kind of thing. Yeah, definitely, Like somatic movement, dance,
Speaker 4: breath toning, chanting. I do a lot of work with
Speaker 4: just simple vowel tones in my workshops because they give
Speaker 4: you like an acoustic inner massage and stimulate the vagus
Speaker 4: nerve and all the connective tissue going from your throat
Speaker 4: all the way down to your womb. So if they're interested,
Speaker 4: I have a couple free sound meditations on my website,
Speaker 4: Wombreclamation dot com where you can just start with a gentle.
Speaker 3: Hum and tone.
Speaker 4: But yeah, finding a place to express I know some
Speaker 4: people who go to like the shooting ranges or a
Speaker 4: bad engage too.
Speaker 3: Right, It's like there are places that you can go where, hey, everyone.
Speaker 4: Else is doing this here, so that you don't take
Speaker 4: it out on your kid or your dog or or
Speaker 4: however it comes out. Because if we don't let it out,
Speaker 4: it's just going to explode, which I've done to people.
Speaker 3: I'm human. And the more we can start to work
Speaker 3: with that anger instead of try to repress.
Speaker 4: It, the more, yeah, the easier it gets, and just
Speaker 4: honoring it.
Speaker 3: This is a big job.
Speaker 4: This is like the first time in history for a
Speaker 4: long time where it's been safe for women to express.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 2: It's like this is so many of us are the
Speaker 2: first generation that has the privilege, aka the safety to
Speaker 2: go there within themselves and feel like healthfully safely feel
Speaker 2: their feelings and be witnessed by someone else who's telling
Speaker 2: them guidy them, it's okay you know you're not alone
Speaker 2: in this. You're still in your power. This does not
Speaker 2: make you weaker or more vulnerable. You're not going to
Speaker 2: lose you know, your house, your estates, your your marriage,
Speaker 2: you know, like, and I'm not saying in all cases,
Speaker 2: but historically, right this was, this was the case sometimes
Speaker 2: like there was there was a real fear even being
Speaker 2: you know, we go back in time even being on
Speaker 2: the stake, like if you if you spoke up as
Speaker 2: a woman, think of the witch trials and so forth.
Speaker 3: I mean, we.
Speaker 2: Carry this, this wounding for so long, and it's important
Speaker 2: for us to look at the history, as you said,
Speaker 2: because there's there's compassion there of like, Okay, this is why,
Speaker 2: and this is also why I'm choosing to change this.
Speaker 2: This ends with me, and I feel I feel so
Speaker 2: grateful and again privileged to be able to heal this,
Speaker 2: to feel this so that the next generations don't have
Speaker 2: to go through what I went through.
Speaker 3: So there's something really beautiful in that.
Speaker 2: And I'm curious, like in your in your work, even
Speaker 2: within yourself and with others, what transformations have you seen
Speaker 2: in people's mental healths and their physical healths?
Speaker 3: Like overall, what what have you witnessed.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's and really amazing to see a change in
Speaker 4: my own physiology. So, like I talked about with my story,
Speaker 4: how when I started setting boundaries, my throat opened up
Speaker 4: and my pelvis relaxed. So I've seen the physiological change
Speaker 4: within my clients of dropping into their body more, opening
Speaker 4: more when they start to speak up for themselves and
Speaker 4: speak their truth because they are becoming that protector that
Speaker 4: they needed or making, They're making space for themselves, and
Speaker 4: then the body relaxes and opens. That has definitely been
Speaker 4: the coolest thing. And then also, yeah, I mean your
Speaker 4: life can change, which we talked about. Your relationships can shift,
Speaker 4: which can be hard at first. You can lose people,
Speaker 4: but you come into more alignment with who you really are.
Speaker 4: So it's a journey that isn't for the faint of heart,
Speaker 4: but it's so worth it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I say, what's the alternative right of keeping
Speaker 2: keeping the mask on?
Speaker 3: And I know there's this fear of.
Speaker 2: Losing losing people, but are you really losing people if
Speaker 2: they aren't in alignment with you and don't don't want
Speaker 2: the best for you? In terms of you know, what
Speaker 2: is authentic? What does what does feel like? Your truth,
Speaker 2: what does feel right? And I think you'd also mentioned
Speaker 2: like your cortisol dropping too right, and I know for myself,
Speaker 2: like my h, I actually I used to have hypo hypothyroid,
Speaker 2: and I know I no longer meet criteria after doing
Speaker 2: more voice voice work and just just deep medicine work
Speaker 2: in general, but really just stepping into my my nose
Speaker 2: to give space for yeses that art that are right,
Speaker 2: that do feel right. How has your chronic illness shifted
Speaker 2: since this work?
Speaker 3: I've become a lot more aware of where I.
Speaker 4: Was making choices that exacerbated my symptoms unless I'm a
Speaker 4: victim that the symptoms are happening too. So yeah, we
Speaker 4: are often making our own symptoms worse, whether it's pain
Speaker 4: or illness, by pushing ourselves, by saying yes to things
Speaker 4: that our body can't handle.
Speaker 3: That's a deep program, right.
Speaker 4: And so my symptoms got better when I started listening
Speaker 4: to my own body, not necessarily when I did a
Speaker 4: certain protocol and started really taking authority and accountability of like, oh,
Speaker 4: I made that choice to do that thing that really
Speaker 4: set me backwards, because I was very much trying to
Speaker 4: heal fast and get back to my old life and
Speaker 4: a lot of my clients are the same, like hyperindependent
Speaker 4: masculine woman and just want to charge right through and
Speaker 4: that that did not work. And so a lot of
Speaker 4: the women that come to me are in the same
Speaker 4: boat where they've they've done it all, they've held the
Speaker 4: family together, never really thought about themselves, and now.
Speaker 3: The body is demanding it. Yeah. Yeah, so it's learning
Speaker 3: to listen.
Speaker 4: And I just wanted to add on the you know,
Speaker 4: the lowering cortisol with the voice. There's been studies shown
Speaker 4: that it scientifically lowers cortisol, lowers your heart rate, and
Speaker 4: increases oxytocin, which is a woman that's our main regulating hormone.
Speaker 4: So toning or just humming while you're doing your dishes
Speaker 4: can really bring you back into your body when we
Speaker 4: start to spin out into the head. And the power
Speaker 4: of doing it in a group with other people. If
Speaker 4: you've ever done a yoga class and everybody owns together,
Speaker 4: like there's just something so that like somatic that you
Speaker 4: can feel about the healing power of making sound together.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so, It's so true. Humming is incredibly healing.
Speaker 2: There was I was reading a study someone humming to
Speaker 2: themselves and healing their I think it was like sinocitis.
Speaker 3: Makes sense. Yeah, and a vibrations coming right through here. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you can give yourself an.
Speaker 4: Internal acoustic massage so that the voice is connected to
Speaker 4: the fascia and the vagas.
Speaker 3: System all the way through your body.
Speaker 4: So you can feel the vibration and give yourself a
Speaker 4: little internal massage and it.
Speaker 3: Will bring you it'll drop you out of your head.
Speaker 4: I never was very good at meditating in silence, but
Speaker 4: I can really get into it in the chanting, in
Speaker 4: the singing. So there's a lot of different ways to meditate,
Speaker 4: and this is just one one way that we can
Speaker 4: explore our voice. And maybe if you don't feel safe
Speaker 4: enough yet to stand up to your boss, you could
Speaker 4: start singing in the.
Speaker 3: Shower, like it's a way to start activating that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great way to get into a parasympathetic
Speaker 2: rest and repair, rest and digest response aka out of
Speaker 2: fight or flight chronic stress response.
Speaker 3: Start humming, start singing, you will you will feel and
Speaker 3: sense sense of difference. Same with dance, right anything.
Speaker 2: Somatic emotions are energy and motions, so we can use
Speaker 2: we can use the voice, we use the body. It's
Speaker 2: it's fun to just simply play around with how that
Speaker 2: feels in your body, since everyone's body is different, and
Speaker 2: I think you touched on you know another important piece,
Speaker 2: which is that for our nervous system as woman, it's oxytocin.
Speaker 3: Is the magic that recently kind of came out, like
Speaker 3: within the.
Speaker 2: Last year or so, right that we learn that because
Speaker 2: there haven't been a ton of studies done on us,
Speaker 2: on us ladies for various reasons.
Speaker 4: No, so we've been doing them on our own bodies, right,
Speaker 4: like for our own journeys with chronic illness. I learned that,
Speaker 4: But it's like, yeah, that would have been nice to
Speaker 4: know and beforehand, because I was trying to do it
Speaker 4: like a man and biohack and yeah, eat all the
Speaker 4: right things and detox and it did not work.
Speaker 3: Why aren't the cold plunges working for me? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's so it's really interesting how that's been
Speaker 2: the case for so many of us on our healing
Speaker 2: journeys and what doing things in a group looks like
Speaker 2: and really popping into oxy that oxytocin very very important
Speaker 2: and even.
Speaker 4: If it's an online like I'm going to be offering
Speaker 4: another workshop series online for chronic illness. I'm huge believer
Speaker 4: in person events and I do a lot of those,
Speaker 4: but just to find your people and feel heard, even
Speaker 4: if you find someone in a different city but they
Speaker 4: have the same illness as you, that's so regulating if
Speaker 4: you're feeling really alone in your journey. And that's why
Speaker 4: I started doing what I'm doing because I just felt
Speaker 4: so isolated and alone and started creating spaces where we
Speaker 4: can come together and you have you can just sit
Speaker 4: with each other because you get it totally.
Speaker 2: You don't have to give each other subtitles. And I
Speaker 2: think too with I know in my chronic illness journey,
Speaker 2: I mean I was couch bound and bed bound, so
Speaker 2: like physically getting somewhere was a lot, and having an
Speaker 2: online community was a big aspect of my healing because
Speaker 2: I felt less isolated and comforted in knowing, hey, I'm
Speaker 2: not the only person doing this, and also adding on
Speaker 2: to that, ensuring that the people you're surrounding yourself with
Speaker 2: also have the same goal of healing of what you're
Speaker 2: also seeking. Because some of these Facebook groups I know
Speaker 2: I had to get out of because we're so solution
Speaker 2: victim spiactally exactly like I think it's important to radically
Speaker 2: accept where we are whilst also reaching for something that
Speaker 2: could look or feel feel better in that in that
Speaker 2: belief work. So it's it's really important to find the
Speaker 2: group that feels like truly in alignment, like yes, these
Speaker 2: are these are my people.
Speaker 3: We're heading in the same direction. Yeah. And I think
Speaker 3: one of the biggest shifts for me and any mpaths.
Speaker 4: Or people please are listening subconsciously, even without thinking. I
Speaker 4: was always focused on how can I support others? And
Speaker 4: this you know, journey with chronic illness for the past
Speaker 4: five or six years.
Speaker 3: I'm now who can support me?
Speaker 4: And that sounds selfish, but survival is selfish, and it's
Speaker 4: okay to go through a season where that is the
Speaker 4: focus because if you're gonna heal that that's what it
Speaker 4: has to be. Start start looking around, like who can
Speaker 4: support me? Because chronic illness will show you who your
Speaker 4: real friends are.
Speaker 3: Really clear, it sure will.
Speaker 2: And you know, to some degree, the codependence piece and
Speaker 2: people pleasing piece has a selfish element to it, and
Speaker 2: you're like, wait, how you're doing everything for everyone else? However,
Speaker 2: it's in order to create peace in your in your
Speaker 2: own life. So there's an element of control, right this person,
Speaker 2: if this person is in good graces with me.
Speaker 3: Or I'm in good graces of them, I am safe.
Speaker 3: I needs met.
Speaker 2: I'm getting my met, you know, even if it's the
Speaker 2: cost of myself, even if it's disingenuous and not authentic.
Speaker 2: So it's also interesting to to decondition and unravel that
Speaker 2: for yourself. If that's a journey that you're on, it's
Speaker 2: very it's a very interesting one, and I think I'll
Speaker 2: be on it for a lifetime for sure.
Speaker 4: It's I totally agree with that. Yeah, there's definitely a
Speaker 4: selfish aspect to codependentcy Like what No, It's like, hey,
Speaker 4: it's okay to have a selfish aspect to yourself and
Speaker 4: to have an angry aspect and a jealous like you
Speaker 4: have to go into the darkness and learn to love
Speaker 4: it exactly.
Speaker 2: We are mosaic pieces, and the colors that you adore
Speaker 2: put on a pedestal, are you know, are that way
Speaker 2: because of the other colors, Like they're all it's all interwoven, intertwined,
Speaker 2: they all give they all give color and brilliance to
Speaker 2: one another.
Speaker 3: So tell us a loan.
Speaker 2: How can people like, how do you how are you
Speaker 2: working with people right now, one on one in group
Speaker 2: settings and how can people find you?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can can.
