0:02
wealth podcast with Jay Glazer. I'm Jay
0:04
Glazer and today is just a mental health checking.
0:07
It's kind of been a weird couple of days for me. Look,
0:09
one of my teammates yesterday, Jimmy Johnson,
0:11
retired, and I had known
0:13
about it for a few days and I
0:16
didn't really process it
0:18
until it really happened yesterday and I realized,
0:20
Man, I sat next to this cat for
0:23
twenty two years
0:26
in our green room we call it an avocado room
0:28
at Fox, and
0:31
man, it really hit me hard. It's
0:34
a a breakup of a relationship.
0:37
It got me and my wife was like,
0:39
you shoot down. I'm like, yeah, I just kind
0:41
of hit me. I've been with this cat for twenty two years,
0:43
sitting next to me every Sunday, and
0:46
it's it's over. And
0:48
it was hard. And she's
0:51
like, well, when you remember the things
0:53
that you enjoyed the most about them? And
0:55
I'm like, hey, you know what, that's
0:57
what I always tell people to do. I always tell
0:59
everybody else celebrate themselves. Make
1:01
sure you celebrate yourself. And she's
1:04
like, well, why aren't you doing the same thing. Don't don't
1:06
sit in the dumps. You have all this, You
1:08
have twenty two years to celebrate instead of twenty two
1:10
years that is gone. View
1:12
it differently, view it as Wow,
1:15
you have all these special memories
1:19
and lessons you learn from him, things
1:21
that you taught you, laughs that you certainly
1:24
enjoyed together, and celebrate those.
1:27
And that's why you lean into your teammates gang. Because
1:29
Rosie was right, like, man, I took a
1:32
car yesterday first, and then all of a sudden, She's
1:34
like, just go back down memory
1:36
lanes, start enjoying these things and living
1:39
all laughs that you guys experienced
1:41
together. And oh my god, where
1:43
there are a lot of laughs together. So
1:45
I will switch the narrative, turn it around.
1:47
But yeah, man I was I was the tag yesterday.
1:50
Not gonna lie. Well, my coach.
1:52
I think America's coach decided to step away
1:56
even though I knew it was coming. There's a harsh
1:58
reality. But it would also reminded me. Look instead
2:00
of instead of leaning into the loss,
2:03
more so leaning to the memories.
2:05
And I'll laughs, let just keep walking this walk
2:07
together
