The Year of the Fire Horse: Stress, Trauma, and Staying Regulated Through Massive Change

February 17, 2026

In this opening episode, Dr. Ashley Anne explores why a trauma-informed lens matters as we enter the Year of the Fire Horse, a period marked by rapid movement, intensity, and unprecedented change.

Trauma happens when we’re overwhelmed by stress, and stress is the pressure of change. That change can occur within the body, the mind, relationships, communities, and even through larger cosmic and seasonal shifts that influence life on Earth.

As we transition from the slower, loss-oriented Year of the Wood Snake into the fast, fiery energy of the Horse, many of us may still be carrying unprocessed grief, stress, and disruption in our body, our mind, and our relationships. This episode explains why that’s normal, and why continuing to process loss is essential for moving forward in a healthy way.

Dr. Ashley introduces a foundational concept of the Gravity Point® framework: the body–mind–relationship system, and how stress disrupts its natural flow when change happens too quickly or feels out of our control. You’ll learn why fight, flight, and freeze don’t tell the full story, and how self-regulation differs from self-care when it comes to preventing trauma and illness.

The episode concludes with three practical ways to stay regulated during times of uncertainty:

• Slowing down when the world speeds up

• Seeking support and staying connected

• Learning to fight for what you want to build, rather than against what already exists

This conversation offers a grounded, science-informed approach to navigating uncertainty, transforming stress into resilience, and meeting this powerful year with clarity and intention.

IT MIGHT SEEM
STRANGE FOR A TRAUMA EXPERT TO COMMENT ON THE CHINESE
ZODIAC YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE
BUT HEAR ME OUT
TRAUMA HAPPENS WHEN WE ARE OVERWHELMED BY STRESS
AND STRESS IS REALLY PRESSURE
IT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMETHING CHANGES
AND IT CREATES PRESSURE ON US TO CHANGE TOO
AND THAT CHANGE CAN HAPPEN AT ANY LEVEL
SO IN YOUR BODY IN YOUR MIND
IN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS AT THE LEVEL OF YOUR COMMUNITY
YOUR COUNTRY OR THE ENTIRE PLANET
AND YES EVEN IN THE COSMOS
SO WHEN THINGS CHANGE WE NEED TO ADAPT TO THEM
AND THAT'S THE PRACTICE
THAT PREVENTS US FROM GETTING STUCK
IT PREVENTS TRAUMA AND IT KEEPS OUR SYSTEM HAPPY
HEALTHY AND WHOLE
OUR SHIFT INTO THE YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE
IS AN ENORMOUS CHANGE
SO IN THIS EPISODE I'M GONNA HELP YOU UNDERSTAND
WHAT CHANGES MIGHT BE ON THE HORIZON
WHAT STRESS PATTERNS MIGHT BE TRIGGERED
AND THEN
WE'LL WRAP UP WITH THREE THINGS YOU CAN DO TO COPE
WITH THE YEAR AHEAD
WELCOME TO THE GRAVITY POINT PODCAST

LET'S START HERE
WHY SHOULD WE EVEN CARE ABOUT THE CHINESE ZODIAC RIGHT
LIKE WHY CARE
SO I THINK
WE NEED TO CARE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS IN THE STARS BECAUSE
BELIEVE IT OR NOT THEY IMPACT US HERE ON EARTH
SO FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO AREN'T AWARE
THAT COSMIC PHENOMENA ACTUALLY IMPACT US ON EARTH
OR MAYBE YOU DOUBT IT'S EVEN TRUE
JUST LOOK AT THE WATERS
AND HOW THEY RISE AND FALL WITH THE MOON
WE HUMANS OUR BODIES ARE MOSTLY WATER
SO WE'RE IMPACTED IN A VERY SIMILAR WAY
OUR BODIES RESPOND TO LUNAR CYCLES
PLANETARY ALIGNMENTS AND SEASONAL SHIFTS
AND THESE AREN'T JUST WOO WOO CONCEPTS
THEY'RE OBSERVABLE PATTERNS THAT INFLUENCE OUR
PHYSIOLOGY OUR MOODS
AND OUR ENERGY LEVELS SO
THE CHINESE ZODIAC ACTUALLY GIVES US
A FRAMEWORK FOR UNDERSTANDING LARGER
COSMIC PATTERNS
AND HOW THEY MIGHT SHOW UP IN OUR LIVES
SO LET'S TAKE A MOMENT TO EXTEND DEEP GRATITUDE
AND HONOR THE CHINESE PEOPLE
WHO HAVE WORKED VERY HARD TO PRESERVE
THIS KNOWLEDGE FOR SO LONG
SO THAT WE CAN UNDERSTAND THESE SHIPS THANK YOU SO MUCH
SO ON FEBRUARY 17TH, 2026
THERE IS A MASSIVE TRANSITION IN THE CHINESE ZODIAC
FROM THE YEAR OF THE WOOD SNAKE
TO THE YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE
SO LET ME PAINT A PICTURE OF WHAT THIS ACTUALLY MEANS
FOR US LAST YEAR
IN THE YEAR OF THE WOOD SNAKE
IT WAS ALL ABOUT SHEDDING
THINGS THAT NO LONGER SERVE US
SO THERE WERE A LOT OF ENDINGS
IF YOUR LIFE LOOKED ANYTHING LIKE MINE
YOU SAW SOME LIKE SIGNIFICANT CYCLES COME TO A CLOSE
MAYBE SOME
LONGSTANDING RELATIONSHIPS SUDDENLY BECAME REALLY
CONFLICTED AND WITHDRAWN AND DISSONANT
OR MAYBE YOU HAD TO FACE SOME OF YOUR DARKER
DEEPER TRAUMA PATTERNS
AS THEY SORT OF MADE THEIR WAY TO THE SURFACE
AND YOU COULDN'T IGNORE THEM ANYMORE
AND UNFORTUNATELY WE ALL WITNESSED SIGNIFICANT
STRATEGIC VIOLENCE AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF LEADERSHIP
SO NO DOUBT LAST YEAR BROUGHT SIGNIFICANT CHANGE
AND SOME SERIOUS LOSS
EVEN THOUGH WE'VE TRANSITIONED NOW
INTO THE YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE
YOU MIGHT STILL BE PROCESSING SOME OF THOSE LOSSES
AND THAT'S TOTALLY OKAY AND IN FACT
CONTINUING TO PROCESS THOSE LOSSES
AND EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED
IS GONNA BE ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY
IF YOU'RE GONNA
SUCCESSFULLY MOVE ON FROM ALL THE STRESS
WE'VE BEEN EXPOSED TO IT'S SORT OF LIKE
YOU NEED TO PROCESS WHAT IS ALREADY IN YOUR SYSTEM
SO THAT WE CAN MOVE ON AND MAKE SPACE FOR WHAT'S NEXT
LET ME ILLUSTRATE THIS BY INTRODUCING A CONCEPT THAT IS
WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT OVER AND OVER ON THIS PODCAST
THE BODY MIND RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM SO YOUR BODY
YOUR PHYSICAL SELF YOUR MIND
YOUR MENTAL SELF AND THEN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
AREN'T ACTUALLY SEPARATE ENTITIES
THEY ARE ONE CONNECTED SYSTEM
SO WHEN I TALK ABOUT STRESS
I'M TALKING ABOUT THE PRESSURE OF CHANGE
PLACED UPON THAT SYSTEM WHEN SOMETHING SHIFTS
SO HERE'S WHAT'S SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN
WHEN WE ENCOUNTER THAT CHANGE
YOUR BODY IS SUPPOSED TO CREATE SENSATIONS
THAT YOU CAN FEEL
AND THEN YOUR MIND CREATES STORIES THAT YOU CAN THINK
AND THEN YOU TAKE ACTION
WITH SIGNALS IN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
THAT'S THE STRESS RESPONSE CYCLE
THE STEP BY STEP PROCESS YOUR BODY
MIND RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM GOES THROUGH TO ADAPT
OR RESPOND TO CHANGE SO ENERGY COMES INTO YOUR SYSTEM
AND THEN ENERGY GOES OUT I CALL THIS YOUR FEEL
THINK ACT FLOW
SO WHEN THIS FLOW STAYS ALIGNED
AND THE FEELINGS IN YOUR BODY MATCH
THE THOUGHTS IN YOUR MIND
AND THESE MATCH HOW YOU SHOW UP IN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
THAT ALIGNMENT KEEPS YOUR MIND
BODY RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM CONNECTED
BALANCED AND REGULATED
BUT SOMETIMES CHANGE CAN HAPPEN TOO RAPIDLY
RIGHT RAPIDLY
OR SOMETIMES THEY'RE SO FAR OUT OF YOUR CONTROL
THAT YOU CAN'T INFLUENCE THEM
AND STRESS BECOMES REALLY TOUGH
IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO PROCESS
SO THE SYSTEM GETS OVERWHELMED
AND STRESS TURNS INTO TRAUMA
AND WHEN THAT HAPPENS YOUR BODY MIND
RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM HAS IT HAS TO WOUND ITSELF
LIKE IT HAS TO DISCONNECT
TRAUMA MEANS WOUND SO
WHAT WILL HAPPEN IS YOU'LL FEEL ONE THING IN YOUR BODY
BUT YOU'LL THINK ANOTHER
OR YOU'LL FEEL AND THINK IN ONE WAY
BUT IT DOESN'T SHOW UP IN YOUR ACTIONS
AND I MEAN THIS IS PAINFUL AND IT'S TERRIBLE RIGHT
IT'S A WOUND BUT IT'S ALSO REALLY
REALLY SMART
BECAUSE WHAT YOUR SYSTEM IS TRYING TO DO IS CHANGE HOW
YOU RESPOND TO THE SITUATION
SO THAT YOU DON'T MAKE THINGS
SO LAST YEAR DURING THE WOOD SNAKE YEAR
THE STRESS THEME WAS REALLY LIKE THIS PRESSURE OF LOSS
LOSS OF RELATIONSHIPS OF STATUS QUO
OF SAFETY EVEN SANITY
SO THERE WAS A TON OF LOSS TO PROCESS IN OUR BODY MIND
RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM HEARTBREAK TO FEEL IN THE BODY
CONFUSION IN THE MIND
AND SIGNIFICANT SHIFTS IN OUR RELATIONSHIPS
SO IT WAS A LOT TO PROCESS
AND IT MAKES IT EVEN HARDER
BECAUSE A LOT OF US ARE NOT EQUIPPED TO DEAL WITH LOSS
OUR SOCIETY OFTEN TEACHES US TO MINIMIZE OUR HEARTBREAK
OR TO REPLACE WHAT'S BEEN LOST
LIKE RIGHT AWAY OR RUSH THROUGH GRIEF
OR RATIONALIZE OUR WAY TO THE OTHER SIDE
MORE QUICKLY THAN OUR SYSTEM ACTUALLY REQUIRES
SO PROCESSING THE YEAR OF THE WOOD SNAKE WASN'T EASY
AND LIKE I SAID
YOU MIGHT BE PROCESSING THAT EXPERIENCE STILL RIGHT NOW
AND I WANNA GIVE YOU PERMISSION TO DO THAT
TAKE YOUR TIME
ALTHOUGH LIKE
THE COSMOS HAVE ALREADY CHANGED
AND ENTERED THE NEW ZODIAC
WE DON'T ACTUALLY EXPERIENCE RENEWAL HERE ON EARTH
UNTIL THE EQUINOX IN MARCH
SO OUR GREGORIAN
CALENDAR ISN'T REALLY MATCHED UP TO ANYTHING
IF WE'RE PAYING ATTENTION TO THE CYCLES
AT THE EQUINOX THOSE OF US IN THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE
WILL BE USHERING IN SPRING
AND READY TO START OVER
WHILE THOSE IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE WILL BE
IN AUTUMN
AND WILL BE GETTING READY TO REST AND RECOVER RIGHT
SO YOUR STRESS
RESPONSE CYCLE NEEDS TO METABOLIZE
WHAT HAPPENED IN THE YEAR OF THE WOOD SNAKE
SO STICK WITH ME UNTIL THE END OF THIS EPISODE
AND I'LL ACTUALLY GIVE YOU THREE THINGS THAT WILL HELP
SUPPORT THIS PROCESS OF PROCESSING
THE WOOD SNAKE
AND THE FIRE HORSE YEAR AT THE SAME TIME
SO IN THIS TRANSITION
WE ARE THEN ENTERING THE YEAR OF THE FIRE HORSE
SO WE'RE MOVING INTO EVEN MORE CHANGE
AND THE NAME ITSELF TELLS US THAT
SO IMAGINE A SNAKE IN THE WOODS LYING LOW
IT'S SHEDDING ITS SKIN SLOWLY AND QUIETLY
LIKE THAT WAS LAST YEAR NOW IMAGINE A FIERY
BEAUTIFUL HORSE RUNNING WILD AND FREE
THAT FIERY FREE
WILD ENERGY IS WHAT THIS NEXT YEAR IS GOING TO BRING
SO WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT STRESS
PATTERNS THAT ARE GOING TO HAPPEN
CHANGES ARE GOING TO HAPPEN MORE QUICKLY NOW
AND THOSE CHANGES ARE NOT GOING TO BE ANYTHING
LIKE HUMANITY HAS EVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE
WE HUMANS DO NOT HAVE A TEMPLATE FOR REALITY RIGHT NOW
NEVER BEFORE HAS CLIMATE CHANGE
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AUTHORITARIANISM
SOCIAL MEDIA DISCRIMINATION
VIOLENCE ECONOMIC DISPARITY
AND MORE THAN BLENDED INTO THE CULTURE WE HAVE TODAY
WE'RE REALLY PAVING NEW GROUND
SO FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE FELT LIKE
BOGGED DOWN BY THE INERTIA OF THE PAST YEAR
OR FEW DECADES LIKE
WE MIGHT BE READY FOR THIS UNCERTAINTY
AND THIS FAST PACE
BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH IT'S GONNA BE CRAZY
AT LEAST THERE'S SOME KIND OF RELEASE
BUT FOR THOSE OF US WHO ACTUALLY PREFER INERTIA
AND WHO FEEL SAFER MOVING MORE SLOWLY
THIS YEAR MIGHT FEEL LIKE A LITTLE FAST
ESPECIALLY
FOR THOSE OF US WHO ARE JUST WAKING UP TO THE WAYS
OF THE WORLD IT MIGHT FEEL A LITTLE OUT OF CONTROL
SO THIS YEAR IS GONNA BRING A LOT OF CHANGE
AND WE'RE ALL GOING TO EXPERIENCE THIS
VERY DIFFERENTLY IN VERY DIFFERENT WAYS
BUT THERE'S ONE THING WE CAN ALL FOCUS ON
TO COPE WITH THE UNCERTAINTY THAT LIES AHEAD
I BELIEVE WE REALLY NEED TO FOCUS
ON THE PRACTICE OF SELF REGULATION
AND LET ME BE CLEAR SELF REGULATION IS NOT SELF CARE
SO SELF CARE IS THE PRACTICE OF MAINTENANCE
THAT'S ABOUT HAVING A ROUTINE THAT SUPPORTS YOUR BODY
YOUR MIND AND YOUR RELATIONSHIPS SO MEDITATION
EXERCISE GOOD SLEEP
HEALTHY BOUNDARIES THESE ARE REALLY IMPORTANT
YOU YOU DEFINITELY WANT TO KEEP DOING THEM
BUT SELF REGULATION IS DIFFERENT
SELF REGULATION IS THE PRACTICE OF MANAGEMENT
IT'S ABOUT KEEPING YOUR BODY MIND
RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM IN BALANCE
AS STRESS PUTS PRESSURE ON THAT BALANCE
EVERY SINGLE DAY
SO SELF CARE IS WHAT YOU DO WHEN THINGS ARE STABLE
AND YOU WANT TO MAINTAIN THAT STABILITY
BUT SELF REGULATION
IS WHAT YOU DO WHEN THINGS ARE CHANGING
ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY'RE CHANGING FAST
TO ACTUALLY CULTIVATE STABILITY IN THE FIRST PLACE
SO SELF CARE IS ABOUT BOLSTERING YOUR RESERVES
RIGHT AND TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF
BUT SELF REGULATION
IS ABOUT MANAGING THE INPUT AND OUTPUT OF ENERGY
TO AND THROUGH YOU SO
THE TRICK TO SELF REGULATION
IS TO RESPOND TO THE CHANGES THAT ARE HAPPENING
AND TO PROCESS THEM IN A WAY THAT KEEPS YOUR BODY
MIND RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM ALIGNED
AND KEEPS ENERGY MOVING THROUGH YOU
SO THAT YOU DON'T GET STUCK
BECAUSE WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE IS THAT WHEN YOUR BODY
YOUR MIND YOUR RELATIONSHIPS GET STUCK
LIKE WE GET SICK
AND IF WE HAVE ANY HOPE OF BUILDING A HAPPIER
HEALTHIER MORE WHOLE WORLD
WE EACH MUST INDIVIDUALLY BE HAPPY
HEALTHY AND WHOLE SO
WE ALL HAVE AN AMAZING OPPORTUNITY RIGHT NOW
TO STEP UP SPEAK UP
AND BRING FORTH A WORLD DEFINED BY LIGHT AND LOVE
WITH THE WILD RAMPANT ENERGY OF THE FIRE HORSE
SUPPORTING US ALONG THE WAY
BUT HERE'S THE TRICKY THING
SO THOSE OF US
WHO ARE DESIGNED TO BRING MORE LIGHT
AND LOVE TO THE WORLD
THOSE OF US WHO ARE HELPERS AND HEALERS
LEADERS AND LIGHT WORKERS
WE ALSO TEND TO BE SENSITIVE
DEEPLY EMPATHETIC AND NEURODIVERGENT
SO THESE QUALITIES
CAN ACTUALLY MAKE IT MORE LIKELY THAT WE SHUT DOWN
WHEN THINGS START TO GO DOWN
SO EITHER THAT OR WE GET STUCK IN PATTERNS OF LIKE
RESENTMENT AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND REVOLT
BUT THESE PATTERNS EITHER SHUTTING DOWN
RIGHT OR AMPED UP
SIMPLY RECYCLE DARK ENERGY
THEY DON'T TRANSFORM IT INTO LIGHT
SO THIS YEAR MORE THAN EVER
WE NEED TO RESPOND TO THIS WORLD
BY USING SELF REGULATION AND THE ART AND SCIENCE OF
SELF REGULATION CENTERS ON THIS
BEING ABLE TO EXPERIENCE THE PRESSURE OF THE SITUATION
AND PROCESS IT THROUGH YOUR OWN BODY
MIND RELATIONSHIP SYSTEM
SO THAT IT LEAVES YOUR SYSTEM BETTER THAN IT ARRIVED
THIS IS ACTUALLY THE POWERFUL PRACTICE OF ALCHEMY RIGHT
TO TAKE EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO US
AND MAKE IT WORK FOR US TO TRANSFORM PAIN INTO PURPOSE
OPPRESSION INTO OPPORTUNITY
AND STRESS INTO A SUPERPOWER
ALCHEMY IS NOT ABOUT OVERLOOKING OPPRESSION RIGHT
OR APPROACHING THE WORLD WITH PERFORMATIVE POSITIVITY
LIKE
IT'S ABOUT ACTUALLY DOING THE WORK WITHIN YOURSELF
TO HEAL YOUR WORLD RIGHT
LIKE
EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE THAT'S WITHIN YOUR INFLUENCE
SO THAT EACH OF US CONTRIBUTE TO HEALING OUR WORLD
SO THE FREE DOWNLOAD
AVAILABLE IN THE DESCRIPTION FOR TODAY'S EPISODE
WALKS YOU THROUGH
THE EXACT STEPS YOU CAN USE TO DO THIS
IN EVERY SINGLE SITUATION YOU FACE
AND IT'S GONNA DEFINE STRESS AND TRAUMA EVEN MORE
BUT FOR NOW LET'S TALK THROUGH
THREE THINGS YOU CAN DO TO COPE WITH THE UNCERTAINTY
AND THE STRESS OF THIS WILD FIRE HORSE YEAR
NO.1 SLOW DOWN
NOW I KNOW THAT SOUNDS LIKE COUNTERINTUITIVE
WHEN EVERYTHING AROUND US IS SPEEDING UP
BUT THAT'S EXACTLY WHY THIS FIRST ITEM MATTERS
THE WORLD IS MOVING AND CHANGING QUICKLY
AND IF YOU LET IT PULL YOU INTO A PACE
THAT DOESN'T MATCH YOUR OWN STRIDE
YOU'RE GONNA GET OVERWHELMED
AND THEN YOU CAN'T CONTRIBUTE
SO REMEMBER THAT EVEN THOUGH THINGS ARE HAPPENING FAST
YOU DON'T ALWAYS HAVE TO MATCH THAT PACE INTERNALLY
IN FACT
SLOWING DOWN IS HOW YOU STAY REGULATED AND GROUNDED
WHEN EVERYTHING ELSE IS CHAOTIC
SO BREATHE SLOWLY MOVE SLOWER
CONSUME YOUR NEWS FEED MORE INTENTIONALLY
WITH REALLY GOOD BOUNDARIES
AND GIVE YOUR SYSTEM TIME TO PROCESS WHAT'S HAPPENING
NO.2 SEEK SUPPORT
IF YOU ARE FEELING OUTRAGED
OVERWHELMED AND A LITTLE OUT OF YOUR DEPTH
YOU ARE NOT ALONE RIGHT NOW
IT IS TRUE THERE IS A SMALL GROUP OF LOUD
ATTENTION SEEKING FOLKS OUT THERE
DOING TERRIBLE THINGS
BUT DON'T LET THEIR VOLUME AND VIOLENCE
GIVE YOU THE IMPRESSION THAT YOU ARE OUTNUMBERED
THERE ARE SO MANY BEAUTIFUL LOVING
GENEROUS MORE QUIET PEOPLE ON THIS PLANET
WHO ARE INVESTED IN DISAGREEMENT
WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION
ECONOMIC EQUITY AND THE PRESERVATION OF THIS PLANET
SO NOW MORE THAN EVER
IT'S IMPORTANT TO FIND THESE PEOPLE
TO TURN UP LIKE THE VOLUME ON THEM IN YOUR OWN LIFE
AND TO SPEND TIME LIVING IN THEIR LIGHT
CONNECTION WITH OTHERS IS ACTUALLY A REQUIREMENT
FOR SELF REGULATION IN OUR NERVOUS SYSTEM
SO WHEN WE BECOME DISCONNECTED FROM EACH OTHER
THE DARK FORCES OF THIS PLANET WIN
DO NOT LET THEM ISOLATE YOU
REACH OUT SEEK SUPPORT
AND SPEND TIME HAVING FUN WITH FOLKS WHO FUEL
YOUR OWN LIGHT
NO.3 FIGHT FOR
NOT AGAINST SO THIS ONE IS HUGE
IN MY RESEARCH
I DISCOVERED THAT THE FIGHT RESPONSE IS A STABILIZING
CREATIVE ENERGY
IT'S THE ENERGY THAT BUILDS AND PROTECTS
AND CREATE STRUCTURE IT'S ACTUALLY DESIGNED TO MOTIVATE
US TO JOIN FORCES AND LIKE MAKE SOMETHING NEW
IT'S NOT DESIGNED TO MAKE US FIGHT AGAINST SOMETHING
THAT'S ALREADY THERE
BECAUSE WHEN WE FIGHT AGAINST WHAT WE DON'T WANT
WE DRAIN THE PRECIOUS ENERGY
THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE USED TO CREATE WHAT WE DO
SO
THERE'S A LOT GOING ON RIGHT NOW THAT YOU MAY NOT WANT
AND IT IS SO VERY
IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO BE CLEAR ON WHAT'S NOT WORKING
RIGHT EXPRESS YOUR PROTEST AND NAME THE HARM
SUPER CRITICAL BUT THEN AND THIS IS SO CRITICAL
YOU MUST FOCUS ON GETTING CLEAR
AND THEN WORKING TOWARD WHAT YOU ACTUALLY WANT TO BUILD
SO TO PARAPHRASE R BUCKMINSTER FULLER
YOU NEVER CHANGE THINGS BY FIGHTING
AGAINST THE EXISTING REALITY
TO CREATE TRUE CHANGE YOU MUST BUILD A NEW MODEL
THAT MAKES THE EXISTING MODEL OBSOLETE
SO REMEMBER DON'T JUST TEAR DOWN WHAT DOESN'T WORK
BE SURE YOU'RE CONSTANTLY BUILDING SOMETHING BETTER
IT'S CLEAR THAT THE YEAR OF THE FIRE
HORSE IS GOING TO BE INTENSE
IT'S GONNA BE FAST
AND IT'S GONNA ASK US TO ADAPT IN WAYS
WE'RE NOT ALWAYS GONNA FEEL READY FOR
BUT YOU HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED
YOU HAVE A BODY THAT KNOWS HOW TO FEEL
A MIND THAT KNOWS HOW TO THINK
AND RELATIONSHIPS IN WHICH YOU KNOW HOW TO ACT
SO CONTRARY TO POPULAR OPINION
YOU DON'T NEED AN ENORMOUS AUDIENCE
OR A POLITICAL PLATFORM TO CHANGE OUR WORLD
YOU JUST NEED TO REGULATE YOUR OWN WORLD
BY TAPPING INTO THE ALCHEMIST WITHIN
AND THAT IS WHAT THIS PODCAST IS HERE TO HELP YOU DO
WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SO MANY
DIFFERENT KINDS OF CONVERSATIONS
ABOUT THE IMMENSE PRESSURE OF BEING IN TODAY'S WORLD
AND THE SCIENCE THAT WILL SUPPORT YOU IN PROCESSING IT
SO THAT ALL THIS STRESS DOESN'T MAKE YOU SICK
