And to just get out there and start doing it, it's not throwing stuff at whatever it is you're trying to do
until you do get it. Right. I see a lot of that in you, from where I met you in 2017, compared to where
you are now is massive, but you've never stopped doing what you're doing. You've just made it better as
you've gone along. And I think there's a lot to be said for that, because if you don't do, you don't learn
because you don't make mistakes. I think a lot of the best learning comes from just making a mistake
and going, okay, well that didn't work. Let me try it this way instead. And I think a lot more people need
to throw that out there and do it.
Warwick Schiller (01:55:24):
You know, one of the questions you didn't choose it, but one of the questions is, you know, what's the
biggest mistake you've ever made and how has it helped you? So, you know, a lot of people, you know,
a lot of the people I interview, you know, they they're quite proud of their big mistake they made
because it led to other things. Okay. What do you do for a, what do you do for stress relief? Oh, no.
Sorry, next question. Sorry. I missed one. And you've got to say this one. What accomplishment are you
most proud of? Because we talked about this before we did the
Emily Newman (01:55:51):
Yeah, yeah. So for me it's a very personal thing. My biggest accomplishment is actually how positive I've
stayed through my cancer journey. Because mentally, physically, emotionally in every possible way, it's
been one of the hardest things I've ever had to face and go through. But I'm very proud of the fact that
on the whole, yeah, I've cried a lot, but on the whole, I've been able to see the funny side, keep my
humor, see the positives, learn the lessons. I think one of the biggest lessons has been patients. I'm not
generally a patient person, but everything I've been through in the last year, 18 months has actually
taught me that patience is okay. And it's okay to rest a while and not feel that I have to do everything
right now. And to be able to take things as they come and just be a lot more present.
Emily Newman (01:57:06):
I think I've been a lot more present in my body with what I do. I've been thinking about where I'm at
right now, as opposed to where I should be or where I think I'm supposed to be tomorrow or the next
day. It's, I think I've always been very spontaneous anyway, but it's helped me realize just how amazing
spontaneity is and to go. Right. For me, for a long time, it was like I'm going to walk upstairs and actually
be okay with it and to be able to walk upstairs and go, okay, I'm actually exhausted now, but I've done it.
And I did it when I wanted to do it. And it's, yeah, it's been a huge thing. And I think if you, a positive
outlook on life is so rewarding and I can't imagine not being like it. But yeah, so that would be my
biggest accomplishment. Sorry. That was an epic answer.
Warwick Schiller (01:58:11):
I don't know. That was a group. That was a great answer. You know, you said something about being
present in there and, and, you know, a couple of years ago, a couple years ago, Tyler and I were in
Holland. I was doing some doing horse expo in Holland and we had the day off and we took her, went to
Amsterdam and took a bicycle tour of Amsterdam of, of the history of Amsterdam. And we stopped at a
little cafe to have something to drink. And one of the guys on the bicycle tour sitting next to us and
we're chatting with him and he'd been to 79 countries, I think, 89 countries, something like that. And I
said I said, I had read somewhere that there is a diminished rate of return after about 22 countries, 22
or three 20 countries is the thing I read.
