[00:00:42] Speaker A: They can't fit into a category.
[00:00:44] Speaker B: Totally.
[00:00:45] Speaker E: Like, at the end, I'm always like, I feel like my cup has been filled. You know, like, it's so, like soul filling. Hanging out with girlfriend. So, yeah, where are you?
[00:00:54] Speaker B: In the bullseye of my life. If you're red, then I'm an A. But if you're out further, then I'm.
[00:01:00] Speaker C: A C. Yeah, I'm an alone person. The gardening thing, that's my boyfriend. Loves to garden and it's always peaceful.
[00:01:08] Speaker B: You're very mysterious.
[00:01:10] Speaker D: You are mysterious.
[00:01:11] Speaker C: Totally.
[00:01:12] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:01:12] Speaker C: Mysterious for sure.
[00:01:13] Speaker D: I love Lindsay's reaction because she just. She doesn't want to be any of the characters.
[00:01:20] Speaker F: You ready, guys? Let's do this.
Express yourself. Share the wealth. Hold onto your bookmarks. We're off the shelf. Express yourself. It's good for your health. Book Interrupted is off the shelf.
[00:01:43] Speaker B: Welcome to Book Interrupted, a book club for busy people to connect and one that celebrates life's interruptions.
[00:01:51] Speaker F: Hold on to your bookmarks because Book Interrupted is off the shelf.
[00:01:59] Speaker B: Welcome to this off the shelf episode. During this episode, we're going to play a quiz called which, which are you? And it was inspired by the themes in the book, the change. So we're going to find out which of the main characters in the change, those witchy women. Which one we are.
[00:02:15] Speaker C: Oh, I'm excited.
[00:02:17] Speaker B: And for listeners, I'm going to put a blog post so you can do the quiz too, if you'd like, with your friends or on your book club or whatever. If you do this, I love quizzes.
[00:02:27] Speaker C: And let us know what kind of witch you are.
[00:02:30] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:02:30] Speaker D: Which witch?
[00:02:31] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. Which witch are you?
[00:02:33] Speaker B: And everyone needs to write down which one they picked and just keep track of the A, B or C that you picked. Each question has three Whatever.
[00:02:41] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:02:41] Speaker B: Okay. First question. Which element do you feel most connected to? A, Earth, solid, grounded and nurturing. B, fire, passionate, strong and unstoppable. C, air and Water. Intuitive, flowing and mysterious.
[00:02:58] Speaker D: If I'm being honest, I know which one I want to be. I'm going to put that one in brackets.
[00:03:05] Speaker B: What do you think yours is?
[00:03:06] Speaker D: I feel like sometimes I'm a where. I work a lot on being grounded and nurturing and stuff, but I'm probably more passionate and, you know, governed by my feelings.
[00:03:15] Speaker B: Strong and unstoppable.
[00:03:16] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe a little bit too driven.
[00:03:19] Speaker B: I'm Earth, I think.
[00:03:21] Speaker C: Me too. I think so as well.
[00:03:23] Speaker D: Is that because you're a Capricorn? Because I'm also an Aries. So I was like, of course I'm fiery. Because I've been told I'm fiery ever since I was introduced to being an Aries. You know, when people implant these ideas into your brain, can't I be everything? You know, I'm a little bit of everything.
[00:03:39] Speaker B: I'm not gonna pick water gear for me. I don't feel like I'm mysterious at all. But, yeah, I feel like start on your sleeve.
[00:03:44] Speaker C: I let it all out.
[00:03:46] Speaker A: I pick C. But that's because I'm more of, like, A. I'm definitely not the other two. I'm not really grounded at all, and I'm not fiery.
[00:03:55] Speaker B: You're very mysterious.
[00:03:56] Speaker D: You are mysterious.
[00:03:58] Speaker C: Totally.
[00:03:58] Speaker F: Yeah.
[00:03:59] Speaker C: Mysterious for sure.
[00:04:00] Speaker D: Wait, but is a Gemini a water symbol?
[00:04:03] Speaker B: Air.
[00:04:04] Speaker A: It's an air sign. Yeah, it's a Gemini is an air sign. So.
[00:04:08] Speaker D: And there's only three options on this one.
[00:04:10] Speaker A: Air and water. But I'm like, such a water. I feel more comfortable in the water than I do anywhere else. So maybe.
[00:04:16] Speaker B: Yeah, I think you're C. Yeah.
[00:04:18] Speaker D: Great.
[00:04:18] Speaker A: Virginia.
[00:04:20] Speaker E: So I'm a Taurus. What's that?
[00:04:22] Speaker A: Earth.
[00:04:22] Speaker C: It's Earth. I'm a Taurus, too.
April 28th.
[00:04:28] Speaker E: Oh, okay. So I'm May 19th. So I'm @ the cusp of Gemini.
[00:04:31] Speaker C: Oh, okay.
[00:04:33] Speaker D: Lindsay's a Gemini.
[00:04:34] Speaker A: I'm a Gemini.
[00:04:34] Speaker D: Yeah, full on.
[00:04:36] Speaker E: Full on Gemini.
[00:04:37] Speaker D: And Sarah's a cusp. Sarah's a Capricorn cusp.
[00:04:41] Speaker B: With Sagittarius.
[00:04:42] Speaker D: Sagittarius.
[00:04:44] Speaker A: So, Virginia, which one did you pick?
[00:04:46] Speaker E: Okay, so I'm kind of in between. I would align more with, like, water, but I'm not mysterious at all. Like, at all. So I don't know. I put B because I have elements of being, like, really passionate. I can get kind of, like, super fiery about stuff, but.
But more like this.
[00:05:03] Speaker D: If you feel seen, go with intuition. It's okay if you're not mysterious.
[00:05:07] Speaker E: B and C. How about.
[00:05:09] Speaker D: Yeah, I put A B in bracket.
[00:05:11] Speaker C: A, I put a bracket C. Nice. Oh, yeah.
[00:05:15] Speaker B: Okay, great.
[00:05:16] Speaker A: The complexities of women. There you go.
[00:05:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:05:19] Speaker A: They can't fit into a category.
[00:05:21] Speaker D: Totally put me in a box.
[00:05:24] Speaker B: All right, two. How do you handle stress? A, I retreat into nature or solitude to regain my strength. B, I channel my energy into something active. Working out, taking actions, making a change.
C, I listen to my instincts and go with my gut feelings.
[00:05:45] Speaker D: I didn't even have to listen to the other two. It was just A, like being by myself in nature. That's all I want is like. I told stress. I'm like, I gotta get into the forest. Luckily, there's a lot of forest around here.
[00:05:56] Speaker C: I took the isolating thing from a. Totally. If I'm stressed, sad, whatever. Isolation for sure.
[00:06:03] Speaker B: Me too. Isolation. When I'm stressed, I need to be alone.
[00:06:06] Speaker A: What was B again?
Workouts.
[00:06:09] Speaker B: Working out, taking action. Make a change. Like you change your energy, you do.
[00:06:14] Speaker A: Something and then the last one is just listen to your gut. Yeah.
[00:06:18] Speaker B: And just go with your gut.
[00:06:19] Speaker D: I'd say that's like, go with the flow. And then.
[00:06:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:06:22] Speaker D: The second one is like, jump into action.
[00:06:25] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm probably a B in action. Yeah.
[00:06:29] Speaker B: I could tell you right away you're B. Like you go for a run or.
[00:06:33] Speaker E: Like jump into a Pinot noir.
[00:06:37] Speaker A: Exactly. I do something.
[00:06:39] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:06:39] Speaker D: Do something. Yeah. Or wine.
[00:06:42] Speaker C: Studying.
[00:06:42] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:06:43] Speaker B: What about you, Virginia? What about you? Are you solitude or are you a doer?
[00:06:47] Speaker E: Yeah, so solitude. But I discovered this recently, which shocked me because I'm not. I don't subscribe typically to this type of thing, but I was really stressed with something with work that had zero control of. And it really got me agitated and I actually meditated for the first time. And I was Zen coming out of it. And I never would have thought that it was a real eye opening experience for me, that it actually could work.
[00:07:10] Speaker D: Inner eye opening.
[00:07:11] Speaker E: I get other people, but for me I'm like, that's not my nature. I would go into nature. I would go for a walk, clear my head. But meditating really worked. Like, it dissolved all of my stress. And I was.
[00:07:23] Speaker C: That's awesome.
[00:07:25] Speaker E: Anyway, I put a. Yeah.
[00:07:26] Speaker B: This interruption is brought to you by our affiliate partners, Libro fm. Libro FM lets you purchase audiobooks directly from your favorite local bookstore. Book Interrupted has a special offer. Use the promotional code Interruption to get two audiobooks for the price of one. And help your local bookstore while you're at it.
[00:07:45] Speaker F: Book Interrupted.
[00:07:48] Speaker D: This interruption is brought to you by Stage Fright. Yes. I have such Terrible stage fright. Like, not just about being on stage, but being on camera as well. So every time I have to record a personal journal by myself, like, I'm just. I've got the video on and I'm doing a personal journal of myself. My heart is beating so hard and I'm sweating, and it takes a lot of takes in order to have, like, a coherent sentence put together. And. And then not just one sentence, but a whole bunch of them strung together so that I can put together this podcast. And you'd think that after so many seasons. I mean, we're on our fifth season. Season, that I would be good at it, but I'm just not. So if you hear me babbling on or stuttering or sounding terrified on the podcast, it's because for some strange reason, I am. I blame my amygdala.
So this interruption is brought to you by my overactive amygdala book, Interrupted.
[00:08:53] Speaker B: Okay. How do you respond to injustice? I quietly but effectively work to dismantle it from behind the scenes.
[00:09:02] Speaker A: Sarah.
[00:09:03] Speaker B: I confronted head on and fight fire with fire. Or I trust in fate and find ways to guide others towards justice. No, Maya, definitely behind the scenes.
[00:09:16] Speaker D: This is too general of a thing. Like, I don't know.
[00:09:18] Speaker C: I think I must see, like, get a car. We're all going to. We're going to a protest. Whether you like it or not. You're my friend. You're coming.
[00:09:26] Speaker B: So that says, I trust in fate and find ways to guide others towards justice.
[00:09:32] Speaker C: So maybe it's like, it's not even a choice. I'm not guiding. I'm bringing you there.
[00:09:36] Speaker D: Oh, then you might be.
[00:09:38] Speaker B: You might be confronted head on and fight by.
[00:09:41] Speaker D: You're confronting it head on, and these people have to come with you. You're not like, did you know there was a protest? You're like, no, we're going now.
[00:09:49] Speaker C: Like, I told everyone, we're going for brunch. I packed snacks. We're going to the tree. Like, let's go. Okay, I'll put.
[00:09:56] Speaker D: No, I don't know.
[00:09:57] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't know either.
[00:09:58] Speaker D: I feel like I don't do enough about injustice, so I feel like I can't be a B because, like, educate myself and then try to talk to other people about, like, things. You know, I might be a C, right? Like, I think you're a C. I need to understand something deeply.
[00:10:14] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:10:14] Speaker D: Yeah, I think I am a C. But I wish I was a baby. Wish I was.
[00:10:18] Speaker C: Hey, I got you. No worries.
[00:10:19] Speaker D: Yeah, I'll go along. You Put me in the car.
I'll even drive if you want.
[00:10:25] Speaker C: Hey, good to know.
[00:10:27] Speaker A: I'll lure people into the car.
[00:10:32] Speaker E: I'm definitely a be. I've been marching, like, marches for women's equality since I was, like, in my teens and working at a women's shelter, violence against women, as such, for years, like, for teens and. Yeah. I was on the board of directors for Legal Aid as well, to help people through. Navigate, you know, situations and stuff. So I'm definitely.
[00:10:54] Speaker C: That's awesome.
[00:10:54] Speaker E: Easy one for me, Lindsay.
[00:10:56] Speaker A: I don't know. I don't do enough too. I agree. I'm definitely not b. Probably not any of them, to be honest. I'm a subtle. Get me in the car.
[00:11:05] Speaker C: I'll be in Ontario.
[00:11:07] Speaker D: Yeah, maybe you're a.
[00:11:08] Speaker A: It depends. I stand up if someone's being bullied. It's something that's important to me. So I'll always stand up to people that, you know and build them up. I think I'm more like a. Like, trying to. So maybe, like, I don't trust in fate, though.
[00:11:22] Speaker B: If you take the fate part out.
[00:11:24] Speaker A: I think maybe you're.
[00:11:25] Speaker B: See. Find ways to guide others towards justice.
[00:11:27] Speaker A: I think so.
[00:11:27] Speaker B: Because whenever you learn something, you share it with others too.
[00:11:30] Speaker A: Yes, exactly. But then what's a. You quietly do things behind the scenes, right?
[00:11:36] Speaker B: Yeah. You effectively work to dismantle.
[00:11:39] Speaker E: Super important.
For somebody who's been, you know, that. Who's been bullied or disadvantaged. Just going to them behind the scenes and showing your support. That does wonders as well.
[00:11:50] Speaker A: Yeah. I think maybe that's more like. Maybe, you know, like, I'll still stand up, but I'm not, like, loud about it. I'm more, you know, let me take this person under my wing and make everyone else realize that that's not okay to. To bully. I guess so. I mean, that's just one thing. But I'm.
[00:12:04] Speaker E: I don't know.
[00:12:05] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:12:05] Speaker C: So maybe a Bullying is. Yeah.
[00:12:07] Speaker B: I think a bracket. C. I love brackets.
[00:12:12] Speaker E: Different forms of allyship.
[00:12:14] Speaker A: Right.
[00:12:14] Speaker E: And that's like. It's just as.
[00:12:16] Speaker D: It's funny. There's no seed being like, I'm the one creating the injustice.
[00:12:20] Speaker A: Yeah.
Yeah. But, like, I'll always stand. Like, if someone says something that's, you know, I don't know, say racist or something, I say something back. But I just. I'm not like, you know, Virginia, I'm not on the board. You know, I. I'm not protesting like Ashley is, you know, But I should do more.
[00:12:36] Speaker C: Any solidarity helps. Right. Like, it's that's equally important.
[00:12:40] Speaker E: Right.
[00:12:40] Speaker C: Helpers too. Yeah.
[00:12:42] Speaker D: What are you, Sarah Bear?
[00:12:44] Speaker B: I would say I'm an A, because I'm definitely a. Like, even when I work for charities like Canada, United States, human trafficking. I was the volunteer director. So I trained all the people, found all the volunteers. Like, I advertised the volunteers and trained them and then gave them to the people that were doing the protesting and helping the survivors and stuff. I was like behind the scenes teaching everyone what it is and then saying, okay, your skill set would actually help this director and your skill set would help this director. Do you know what I mean? So I think that that's me. And even when I had would find injustices at work or something, I would report them to HR Anonymously.
[00:13:22] Speaker D: Yeah, all the time. I don't like confrontation, but I'll say that again.
[00:13:25] Speaker B: But I immediately take care of it anonymously.
[00:13:28] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:13:29] Speaker E: That's so interesting. So I'm definitely in with the human trafficking. I would love to learn more what you were doing.
[00:13:35] Speaker A: That's very.
[00:13:35] Speaker B: Yeah, it's heartbreaking. It was heartbreaking.
[00:13:39] Speaker C: Maybe we need a whole off the shelf episode about it.
[00:13:42] Speaker E: I would love.
[00:13:43] Speaker B: Yeah. There's so much.
[00:13:45] Speaker A: Never mind.
[00:13:45] Speaker C: It's okay. Everyone's mood just changed.
[00:13:49] Speaker B: I was like, I don't know.
[00:13:50] Speaker C: No, no, I'll get it.
[00:13:51] Speaker D: Yeah, I can. With like the fun intro. Like the fun intro. We're off the shelf and they're like, let's talk about the most depressing thing. Think about today.
[00:14:01] Speaker C: That's literally me. Like, I'll go to. My friends are so stoked to hang up. They're like, oh, my God, girls day. And I'm like, what is wrong in the world that we need to talk about today?
[00:14:13] Speaker D: I heard a terrible news story.
[00:14:15] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:14:15] Speaker D: But today we're doing a quiz.
Okay, which are we?
[00:14:20] Speaker B: Okay, Next one is what is your ideal way to recharge? Gardening, crafting, or spending some time in peaceful, beautiful place. B, exercising, laughing with friends or doing something high energy. Or C, meditating, journaling, or embracing a spiritual ritual. I pick meditating to recharge. Meditating, journaling.
[00:14:43] Speaker A: Can you say them again?
[00:14:44] Speaker B: A is just a lot of gardening, crafting, like doing crafts, spending time in a peaceful or beautiful place. It's nature, but it's also like creating something. That's the crafting part.
[00:14:56] Speaker D: Using your hands. Boom.
[00:14:58] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:14:58] Speaker D: Working with your hands.
[00:15:00] Speaker B: B is more like. B is exercising, laughing with friends, doing something high energy, like doing some fun stuff. That's how you get recharged.
[00:15:08] Speaker A: It's just recharging. Okay. Yeah.
[00:15:10] Speaker B: Recharge.
[00:15:10] Speaker D: That's also recharge, Lindsay. By using. A lot of.
[00:15:13] Speaker B: Some people are extroverts. Right? Extroverts like to be around people. And then the next one is meditating, journaling, and embracing a spiritual ritual.
[00:15:22] Speaker D: Kind of like being alone. You.
[00:15:24] Speaker C: I'm with May on that. Yeah. I'm an alone person. The gardening thing, that's. My boyfriend loves to garden. And it's always peaceful. We're just not really talking to each other until we find something cool. Show each other, and then move your hands.
[00:15:39] Speaker D: I like journaling, but I gotta go with using my hands on something. Like, it doesn't have to be those examples, but like building something or. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:15:53] Speaker A: None of them. I don't know. Like, I have to think of examples.
[00:15:57] Speaker B: That are not examples again.
[00:15:59] Speaker D: Tell me what you would do to recharge. I'll tell you if it's A, B.
[00:16:02] Speaker A: Or C. Probably read a book or.
[00:16:05] Speaker D: You'Re seeing, like, paint as you can with your hands. Yeah.
[00:16:11] Speaker A: Sometimes go for a walk. Like, I do something from all three of them. Like, it depends on my mood. Yeah.
[00:16:17] Speaker D: But walk is still low energy. So you're not B.
[00:16:19] Speaker A: We know you're not B. I don't. I don't know. Social.
[00:16:22] Speaker D: I think you might be able. You're gonna do something. You're like, I'm gonna sit and do something.
[00:16:28] Speaker B: And it says time in a beautiful place. That's walking in nature.
[00:16:32] Speaker A: That's true. I think you're to recharge. Okay.
[00:16:35] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:16:36] Speaker A: I'm hard because I feel like I never fit into any of these.
[00:16:38] Speaker B: Because I know.
[00:16:39] Speaker A: I feel like I'm a multiple personality kind of person. As you all know, general questions are.
[00:16:43] Speaker D: Just for some people. I hate general questions. I just, like. The answer is no. Ask me that question. Be more specific.
[00:16:52] Speaker B: Did everyone go? Virginia, did you go?
[00:16:55] Speaker E: No, I'm a B. Like, I'm a hard B. Yeah.
[00:16:57] Speaker D: Cool.
[00:16:58] Speaker E: Whenever I hang out with my girlfriends, like, at the end, I'm always like, I feel like my cup has been filled. You know? Like, it's so, like, soul filling. Hanging out with girlfriends. So I'm gonna say B. Although I do love garden so much.
[00:17:14] Speaker C: Garden with your friends, maybe. Yeah.
[00:17:18] Speaker E: And gardening. That's my favorite thing. But to feel like. To recharge, to fill my cup every day, all day. I would pick hanging out with my friends.
[00:17:26] Speaker B: Okay, five is, if someone betrays you, how do you react? A, I withdraw cutting ties and let nature take its course. B, I make sure they regret it. I don't let things slide. See, I sense when the betrayal is coming and protect myself in advance.
I'm a cutter.
[00:17:47] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm a cutter, too, for sure. Yeah.
[00:17:50] Speaker D: I mean, I would tell them. I wouldn't just walk away. I'd be like, yeah, this was a huge betrayal. I would let them know not. Okay. And then I would walk away and be like, this is a relationship.
But if I also forgive. It depends. I mean, it depends.
[00:18:09] Speaker C: I'm a forgiver, but I'll cut off for sure.
[00:18:11] Speaker B: Yeah, it depends on. I'm a forgiver, too, but I'll. I'm a cutter.
[00:18:15] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:18:16] Speaker E: Yeah, I'm an A. And it always depends on, like, the reaction, too. If the reaction I get from saying this didn't feel cool to me or whatever, if I get a lot of defensiveness, then I'm out. But if somebody genuinely apologizes, and then I can own my part in it, too. We're good to. You know again.
[00:18:33] Speaker B: Yeah, me too.
[00:18:36] Speaker A: I feel the same way. Yep.
[00:18:37] Speaker B: Cutter. Okay.
[00:18:38] Speaker D: That was easy.
[00:18:39] Speaker B: All of us. Look at that one.
[00:18:41] Speaker D: Don't betray us or you're out.
[00:18:45] Speaker C: You're out.
[00:18:45] Speaker E: I'm sending to all my friends and family like, this is what's going to happen.
[00:18:51] Speaker D: But if you apologize genuinely, you're back.
[00:18:53] Speaker B: In now, you know. What role do you naturally take in a group? The wise advisor who helps others grow. The protector who stands up for the vulnerable. Or the quiet observer who knows more than they say?
[00:19:09] Speaker C: I'm a B for sure.
[00:19:11] Speaker D: I like to think I'm a C, but I talk a lot.
[00:19:13] Speaker C: I'm going with A.
Yeah, I'll. I stick up for sure. If there's someone in a group, it's. I feel like I gravitate towards the one who kind of needs that extra support, so.
[00:19:25] Speaker E: Oh, that's nice.
[00:19:26] Speaker A: Okay, say it again. So B is protector.
[00:19:29] Speaker B: A is a wise advisor to help others grow. And C is a quiet observer who knows. Knows more than they say. A.
[00:19:38] Speaker A: Maybe that one.
[00:19:38] Speaker D: Yeah.
[00:19:39] Speaker A: Not maybe. You're C.
C. Okay, fine.
[00:19:42] Speaker D: We've been friends for a long time.
[00:19:47] Speaker B: I would say I'm either A or C. Because when I'm close to people, I'm A. When I'm not close to people, I'm C. It depends on what.
[00:19:54] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:19:54] Speaker B: Where are you? In the bullseye of my life. If you're red, then I'm an A. But if you're out further, then I'm.
[00:20:00] Speaker C: A C.
A bracket C. I'm gonna.
[00:20:05] Speaker D: Put A. I'm gonna give you A first and C Second.
[00:20:09] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:20:10] Speaker D: Because you would say something if somebody's like, I don't know about this. You're like, I hope.
[00:20:14] Speaker B: Like, maybe you can help. Yeah. Yeah, that's true.
[00:20:17] Speaker E: I'm with Sarah. Depending on how close I am to the group, I would be a B. If I'm close to them, like, protect them, you know? But if I don't know the group, I just sit back and I'm just quiet like it's.
[00:20:29] Speaker A: Do bracket still a C no matter what.
[00:20:33] Speaker E: Yeah.
[00:20:34] Speaker B: And last question. What kind of power would you want most? A, the ability to grow, heal, and manipulate nature. B, the power of sheer strength and protection. C, deep connection to the unforeseen forces, spirits, intuition, and the unknown.
[00:20:53] Speaker C: That's scary.
[00:20:54] Speaker D: How to, like, magnetic fields or something?
[00:20:57] Speaker B: Everything like the C, unknown.
[00:20:59] Speaker E: Sorry, Sarah, can you repeat that? I was just lost.
[00:21:01] Speaker B: No, that's okay. So what kind of power do you want most? The ability to grow, heal, and manipulate nature. So gardening keep a plant alive in your house?
[00:21:12] Speaker D: I wish.
[00:21:13] Speaker B: B, the power of sheer strength and protection. C, a deep connection to the unseen forces, spirits, intuition, the unknown.
[00:21:22] Speaker A: I'm a C for sure.
[00:21:24] Speaker D: C for sure.
[00:21:25] Speaker A: Yeah. Not even a doubt in my mind that one.
[00:21:28] Speaker D: But I'm thinking more like, along space and physics. Like, I really want to. Yeah. I'm not even gonna start talking about magnetic fields. Don't even get me started. But I think about them a lot.
[00:21:39] Speaker A: Well, I think Mayor, you and I like to know things, so I think the idea of. Of knowing things that are unknown is the most appealing thing to me.
[00:21:48] Speaker D: Totally.
[00:21:49] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:21:50] Speaker B: I'm going with A. I love growing. I'm growing avocado trees right now. I just love seeing things become alive. Like, I love it. Anyway, I'm doing A. I would do A as well.
[00:22:03] Speaker C: I think our world is dying, and it would be very cool to. To be able to help that stay longer. So.
[00:22:09] Speaker B: And I'm a holistic nutritionist, so I love how, like, herbs heal you. You don't have to do medicines and that. Definitely for me.
[00:22:16] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:22:17] Speaker B: Virginia.
[00:22:17] Speaker E: I picked B for sure. And then all of the. I would never have to put a book down. I would just protect people from awful things that happen to them in their lives. So I think that's true. Okay.
[00:22:30] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:22:31] Speaker B: Okay. So this is the end now. So everyone pick all the ones even. There's two brackets. What is the most you have out of all of them? Tally them. Okay. Okay. So whoever has the most A's. Who has the most A's?
[00:22:44] Speaker D: That's Meredith.
[00:22:46] Speaker B: Me, too.
[00:22:46] Speaker C: I Have six.
[00:22:47] Speaker A: I'm middle. I have the equal amount, of course, because that's my personality of A and C. This A and C. So A's.
[00:22:59] Speaker B: You are Harriet, the Earth witch. You are deeply rooted in wisdom, nature, and transformation. You find power in stillness, observation, and growth. People may underestimate you, but you are a force of resilience and a quiet revolution.
Okay, who has the most bees?
[00:23:19] Speaker D: I love Lindsay's reaction because she just. She doesn't want to be any of the characters.
[00:23:26] Speaker B: But she's two, so she's not even one of the characters. That's right. Anybody? B. Okay, Virginia, B. You're Jo, the fire witch. Yep. Fierce, passionate, and unafraid. You are a protector of those in need and a warrior for justice. You embrace change head on, using your strength, physical or emotional, to transform challenges into victories.
[00:23:52] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:23:53] Speaker B: Okay. Good for you, Lindsay. You're also C, right?
[00:23:57] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:23:57] Speaker B: This is your other. This is your other side of your twin.
[00:24:00] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:24:01] Speaker B: Gemini.
[00:24:02] Speaker A: Great.
[00:24:02] Speaker B: Okay. You are Nessa, the Spirit witch. You are deeply intuitive and connected to the forces beyond what is seen. Whether through dreams, instinct, or unshakable gut feelings. You understand people and situations in ways others do not. Your power lies in your ability to see the unseen and trust the journey.
There we go.
[00:24:28] Speaker D: She doesn't like being put in a box.
[00:24:31] Speaker B: I know. She hates quizzes. I can't believe she saved her this one. And she hated that book.
[00:24:37] Speaker A: And I hated the book. Virginia, so I take a chance.
[00:24:42] Speaker E: I've hate neither Harriet nor Nessa.
Oh, good.
