0
00:00:00,519 --> 00:00:04,300
You're listening to the Play Therapy Podcast with Dr. Brenna Hicks,

1
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,100
your source for centered and focused play therapy coaching.

2
00:00:09,819 --> 00:00:10,060
Hi,

3
00:00:10,100 --> 00:00:11,140
I'm Dr. Brenna Hicks,

4
00:00:11,220 --> 00:00:11,930
The Kid Counselor.

5
00:00:12,109 --> 00:00:14,060
This is the Play Therapy Podcast where you get

6
00:00:14,060 --> 00:00:16,340
a master class in child-centered play therapy

7
00:00:16,579 --> 00:00:18,780
and practical support and application for your

8
00:00:18,780 --> 00:00:20,399
work with children and their families.

9
00:00:20,899 --> 00:00:21,930
In today's episode,

10
00:00:22,100 --> 00:00:24,399
we are going to bust another myth.

11
00:00:24,540 --> 00:00:26,440
We're in the MythBusters series.

12
00:00:27,139 --> 00:00:28,180
And today,

13
00:00:28,260 --> 00:00:29,799
the myth is

14
00:00:30,790 --> 00:00:32,310
You have to do something.

15
00:00:34,279 --> 00:00:36,459
So we will hear that from parents,

16
00:00:37,150 --> 00:00:37,830
colleagues,

17
00:00:38,049 --> 00:00:38,880
teachers.

18
00:00:39,810 --> 00:00:40,360
Guardians,

19
00:00:40,459 --> 00:00:42,400
all kinds of other industry people.

20
00:00:43,180 --> 00:00:43,819
And,

21
00:00:44,020 --> 00:00:44,139
well,

22
00:00:44,180 --> 00:00:45,580
you have to do something.

23
00:00:45,939 --> 00:00:47,540
What's your clinical intervention?

24
00:00:47,860 --> 00:00:48,869
What are you doing?

25
00:00:49,939 --> 00:00:52,090
And there's all kinds of things that go with that myth.

26
00:00:52,150 --> 00:00:52,669
In other words,

27
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:53,630
you have to have goals,

28
00:00:53,709 --> 00:00:55,229
you have to have measurable outcomes,

29
00:00:55,310 --> 00:00:56,250
you have to

30
00:00:56,470 --> 00:00:58,290
have documentation of

31
00:00:58,509 --> 00:01:01,330
how you're actually achieving therapeutic gains.

32
00:01:02,310 --> 00:01:03,860
So we're going to bust that myth.

33
00:01:04,050 --> 00:01:05,290
Before I dive in though,

34
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,569
super exciting announcement.

35
00:01:09,370 --> 00:01:09,900
On Thursday,

36
00:01:09,980 --> 00:01:10,720
May twenty-eighth.

37
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,339
At 12 Eastern.

38
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:14,339
So please,

39
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,319
if you are in a different time zone,

40
00:01:16,639 --> 00:01:17,300
plan accordingly,

41
00:01:17,519 --> 00:01:18,839
adjust 12 Eastern.

42
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,819
We are celebrating the 400th

43
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:23,739
episode

44
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,300
of the podcast

45
00:01:25,919 --> 00:01:26,620
and

46
00:01:26,739 --> 00:01:30,360
www.playtherapypodcast.com/400

47
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,500
is where you will register for that.

48
00:01:33,410 --> 00:01:35,290
So if you will be able to attend,

49
00:01:35,370 --> 00:01:36,550
it will be a live

50
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:37,629
podcast

51
00:01:38,129 --> 00:01:39,510
and it will be a Zoom call.

52
00:01:39,610 --> 00:01:43,949
You'll be able to hang out with me and a whole bunch of other podcast listeners.

53
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,769
And we'll do Q&A and it'll just be a fun time to hang out.

54
00:01:47,889 --> 00:01:48,169
So,

55
00:01:48,330 --> 00:01:49,959
if you can clear your schedule,

56
00:01:50,129 --> 00:01:50,449
Thursday,

57
00:01:50,569 --> 00:01:52,110
May 28th at noon Eastern,

58
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,989
register at www.playtherapypodcast.com/400

59
00:01:56,410 --> 00:01:57,300
Please be mindful,

60
00:01:57,410 --> 00:01:59,150
we have a cap of 100 people

61
00:01:59,330 --> 00:01:59,839
per Zoom,

62
00:01:59,930 --> 00:02:01,330
not because I don't want more than that,

63
00:02:01,489 --> 00:02:03,290
because I can't do more than that with Zoom.

64
00:02:03,930 --> 00:02:04,040
So,

65
00:02:04,050 --> 00:02:06,720
if you are unsure of whether or not you can make it,

66
00:02:07,089 --> 00:02:09,270
please don't register because

67
00:02:09,848 --> 00:02:11,158
If you can't make it,

68
00:02:11,369 --> 00:02:13,548
then that means someone else wasn't able to attend.

69
00:02:14,009 --> 00:02:17,768
So please register if you know for sure that you will be able to attend that live

70
00:02:17,768 --> 00:02:21,248
event and then that will keep spots open for people that would also like to join.

71
00:02:22,300 --> 00:02:22,820
OK,

72
00:02:23,179 --> 00:02:24,679
so let's talk about myths now.

73
00:02:24,860 --> 00:02:25,059
You know,

74
00:02:25,139 --> 00:02:27,000
I was thinking about this earlier because

75
00:02:28,259 --> 00:02:29,720
There are all kinds of

76
00:02:29,899 --> 00:02:31,039
things that we hear

77
00:02:31,399 --> 00:02:33,320
all over the world every day.

78
00:02:34,110 --> 00:02:37,750
And our brain is constantly trying to evaluate whether

79
00:02:37,750 --> 00:02:39,550
we think that it's true or whether we don't.

80
00:02:40,279 --> 00:02:42,059
And that comes from our own experience,

81
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,860
that comes from our belief and value structure,

82
00:02:45,130 --> 00:02:46,419
that comes from our worldview,

83
00:02:46,479 --> 00:02:47,660
that comes from

84
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:49,350
what we've been told,

85
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,470
what we've seen mirrored in other people.

86
00:02:51,740 --> 00:02:56,020
So there's all kinds of factors that go into whether or not we hear something and we

87
00:02:56,330 --> 00:02:57,419
believe that it's true or not.

88
00:02:58,649 --> 00:03:00,789
But there's something unique about a myth,

89
00:03:01,529 --> 00:03:03,669
because a myth isn't just something that you hear.

90
00:03:04,419 --> 00:03:07,440
A myth is something that is widely accepted.

91
00:03:07,860 --> 00:03:09,369
It's widely believed.

92
00:03:09,460 --> 00:03:12,259
And obviously sometimes you can trace its origins back,

93
00:03:12,300 --> 00:03:14,539
like how in the world did this myth become a thing?

94
00:03:15,250 --> 00:03:16,289
Sometimes it's wives' tales.

95
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:17,360
Sometimes it's

96
00:03:17,740 --> 00:03:18,580
storytelling.

97
00:03:18,820 --> 00:03:20,630
Sometimes it's exaggeration of truth.

98
00:03:20,820 --> 00:03:21,020
I mean,

99
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:23,720
there's all kinds of reasons that a myth can form.

100
00:03:24,850 --> 00:03:27,440
But I think in child-centered play therapy.

101
00:03:28,119 --> 00:03:29,020
And in our field

102
00:03:30,149 --> 00:03:33,949
There are so many myths that people from the outside looking in

103
00:03:34,270 --> 00:03:35,289
have absolutely

104
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:36,750
labeled truth.

105
00:03:38,050 --> 00:03:38,740
And

106
00:03:39,020 --> 00:03:40,500
whether we like it or not,

107
00:03:40,899 --> 00:03:41,759
we are

108
00:03:41,899 --> 00:03:45,240
the ones bringing forth truth in contrast to the myth.

109
00:03:45,699 --> 00:03:47,520
And that's what this whole series is about.

110
00:03:47,779 --> 00:03:53,600
I want us to be able to understand what is a myth and therefore how we're going to

111
00:03:53,940 --> 00:03:55,080
share truth

112
00:03:55,259 --> 00:03:56,679
to combat that belief.

113
00:03:57,750 --> 00:03:59,690
So one of the most common myths

114
00:03:59,869 --> 00:04:00,889
circulating

115
00:04:01,350 --> 00:04:03,490
is that therapy is about doing something.

116
00:04:04,750 --> 00:04:06,380
And I'll be the first to admit,

117
00:04:06,539 --> 00:04:06,710
I mean,

118
00:04:06,750 --> 00:04:08,389
I go back to my grad school days.

119
00:04:08,690 --> 00:04:09,830
I had a lot of grad school.

120
00:04:10,110 --> 00:04:10,830
Lord help me.

121
00:04:11,860 --> 00:04:13,039
Totally random aside.

122
00:04:13,429 --> 00:04:13,589
I,

123
00:04:13,669 --> 00:04:14,750
I don't know if I said this before,

124
00:04:14,860 --> 00:04:18,010
but I was asked how many years I'd been in school once.

125
00:04:19,339 --> 00:04:21,700
And when I said 32 out loud,

126
00:04:21,820 --> 00:04:23,000
that really hurt my heart.

127
00:04:23,799 --> 00:04:24,809
So I was like,

128
00:04:25,179 --> 00:04:26,160
oh my word,

129
00:04:26,220 --> 00:04:27,660
I've had so much school in my life.

130
00:04:27,779 --> 00:04:28,359
Anyway,

131
00:04:28,660 --> 00:04:29,380
I digress.

132
00:04:29,579 --> 00:04:30,000
So,

133
00:04:30,989 --> 00:04:31,649
When

134
00:04:31,829 --> 00:04:33,769
I think back to my grad school days,

135
00:04:34,350 --> 00:04:37,250
I vividly remember being taught

136
00:04:37,709 --> 00:04:38,410
what to quote,

137
00:04:38,510 --> 00:04:38,989
do.

138
00:04:39,910 --> 00:04:41,980
Therapy is a doing profession

139
00:04:42,179 --> 00:04:43,450
when you work with adults.

140
00:04:43,899 --> 00:04:44,320
So

141
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:47,279
you listen and you reflectively respond

142
00:04:47,459 --> 00:04:50,720
and you give strategies and you point out

143
00:04:51,299 --> 00:04:52,480
maladaptive coping

144
00:04:52,660 --> 00:04:53,799
and you

145
00:04:53,899 --> 00:04:57,179
argue with irrational beliefs and so on and so forth.

146
00:04:57,290 --> 00:04:58,119
Those are

147
00:04:58,420 --> 00:05:00,480
things that we do as therapists.

148
00:05:01,239 --> 00:05:01,769
But

149
00:05:02,010 --> 00:05:04,529
the caveat is that that is with adults.

150
00:05:06,010 --> 00:05:08,489
Once we shifted to working with children.

151
00:05:09,470 --> 00:05:10,850
Things are different.

152
00:05:11,390 --> 00:05:11,540
Now,

153
00:05:11,589 --> 00:05:13,630
I suppose if you're a directive play therapist,

154
00:05:13,730 --> 00:05:14,209
then

155
00:05:14,350 --> 00:05:15,609
you're still doing things.

156
00:05:16,109 --> 00:05:19,589
But the second that you embrace child-centered play therapy,

157
00:05:19,950 --> 00:05:22,239
the second that you understand

158
00:05:22,350 --> 00:05:24,529
the power of non-directive

159
00:05:24,950 --> 00:05:25,429
work.

160
00:05:27,119 --> 00:05:29,380
Your entire framework has to change,

161
00:05:29,799 --> 00:05:30,980
and you say,

162
00:05:31,359 --> 00:05:33,420
this isn't about doing now.

163
00:05:34,369 --> 00:05:35,910
And so the myth is,

164
00:05:36,329 --> 00:05:37,750
how many times have we heard.

165
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:40,119
Well,

166
00:05:40,519 --> 00:05:41,920
what are you actually doing?

167
00:05:42,119 --> 00:05:43,959
But you're not actually doing anything.

168
00:05:44,820 --> 00:05:46,200
What therapeutic

169
00:05:46,380 --> 00:05:47,239
gain

170
00:05:47,779 --> 00:05:48,720
can you

171
00:05:49,299 --> 00:05:50,000
present

172
00:05:50,420 --> 00:05:51,290
as a strategy?

173
00:05:52,089 --> 00:05:52,600
Well,

174
00:05:52,970 --> 00:05:55,579
that flies in the face of the child-centered model.

175
00:05:55,730 --> 00:05:57,230
The child-centered model

176
00:05:57,609 --> 00:05:58,230
is

177
00:05:58,489 --> 00:05:59,510
we trust the child

178
00:06:00,290 --> 00:06:02,170
to know the work that needs to be done.

179
00:06:03,179 --> 00:06:06,279
We trust that the child wants to become a better version of themselves.

180
00:06:07,059 --> 00:06:08,600
We trust the process,

181
00:06:09,019 --> 00:06:11,000
which is we provide the conditions.

182
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:13,100
i.e.,

183
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,619
environment and relationship.

184
00:06:15,829 --> 00:06:17,230
So that the child is ready,

185
00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:17,619
willing,

186
00:06:17,630 --> 00:06:18,450
and able

187
00:06:18,829 --> 00:06:20,290
to sort through their things

188
00:06:20,670 --> 00:06:21,970
and come out on the other side,

189
00:06:22,109 --> 00:06:23,489
a happier and healthier version.

190
00:06:25,390 --> 00:06:26,630
There's no doing.

191
00:06:26,790 --> 00:06:27,630
That's why I've,

192
00:06:27,709 --> 00:06:28,730
I've worked so hard

193
00:06:28,989 --> 00:06:31,790
to coin the phrase I am CCPT.

194
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,079
We don't do

195
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:35,079
this work.

196
00:06:35,399 --> 00:06:35,940
We are

197
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:37,480
child-centered.

198
00:06:38,329 --> 00:06:39,769
It's a way of being.

199
00:06:40,940 --> 00:06:42,119
So the myth,

200
00:06:42,660 --> 00:06:43,929
you have to do something,

201
00:06:44,059 --> 00:06:45,920
that's where the drift begins.

202
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,029
And even when you are wholly CCPT,

203
00:06:50,769 --> 00:06:53,429
even when you are all in and you've embraced it

204
00:06:53,579 --> 00:06:56,070
and you are never turning back,

205
00:06:56,570 --> 00:06:58,230
you're going to feel pressure to do.

206
00:06:59,049 --> 00:07:00,470
You're going to feel pressure

207
00:07:00,730 --> 00:07:01,890
because of the timeline.

208
00:07:02,679 --> 00:07:03,089
Oh my gosh,

209
00:07:03,170 --> 00:07:04,489
we're at 34 sessions,

210
00:07:04,500 --> 00:07:04,970
and

211
00:07:05,130 --> 00:07:06,890
I don't think we're anywhere close to being done.

212
00:07:07,010 --> 00:07:07,160
Like,

213
00:07:07,250 --> 00:07:08,269
should I do something?

214
00:07:10,119 --> 00:07:11,839
Or we get pressure from parents.

215
00:07:13,109 --> 00:07:15,970
I just really need you to talk to him about whatever.

216
00:07:16,070 --> 00:07:18,809
I really need you to address this problem because

217
00:07:19,769 --> 00:07:22,609
And they have reasons and they have urgency and they have desperation,

218
00:07:22,970 --> 00:07:23,829
understandably so.

219
00:07:24,850 --> 00:07:25,609
They're putting pressure.

220
00:07:25,690 --> 00:07:27,049
The schools will put pressure.

221
00:07:28,329 --> 00:07:29,429
Medical will put pressure,

222
00:07:29,609 --> 00:07:30,790
legal will put pressure.

223
00:07:31,329 --> 00:07:34,119
There's all of these outside forces

224
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,029
where they want something tangible.

225
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,019
And I said this recently,

226
00:07:40,519 --> 00:07:41,019
it,

227
00:07:41,359 --> 00:07:43,399
it makes adults feel really good.

228
00:07:44,450 --> 00:07:45,670
When they can say,

229
00:07:46,170 --> 00:07:47,029
I did this.

230
00:07:48,220 --> 00:07:49,410
We did this worksheet

231
00:07:50,100 --> 00:07:51,660
We talked about this.

232
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:53,559
We did this activity.

233
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:54,559
Look,

234
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,579
we completed this on the list.

235
00:07:57,649 --> 00:07:59,690
That makes all adults feel really good.

236
00:08:00,570 --> 00:08:01,089
Parents,

237
00:08:01,209 --> 00:08:01,769
teachers,

238
00:08:01,850 --> 00:08:02,760
principals,

239
00:08:03,170 --> 00:08:03,649
guardian,

240
00:08:03,730 --> 00:08:04,010
whatever,

241
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,209
everybody feels good when they can say,

242
00:08:06,290 --> 00:08:06,440
oh,

243
00:08:06,450 --> 00:08:06,769
look,

244
00:08:07,010 --> 00:08:08,149
that was accomplished.

245
00:08:08,529 --> 00:08:09,450
We did something.

246
00:08:11,470 --> 00:08:14,119
And what that communicates at its core,

247
00:08:14,239 --> 00:08:14,429
the,

248
00:08:14,519 --> 00:08:15,130
the subtle,

249
00:08:15,279 --> 00:08:16,320
maybe not so subtle,

250
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,200
the implication is.

251
00:08:19,279 --> 00:08:21,029
I know what you need.

252
00:08:21,790 --> 00:08:23,769
And as long as you comply

253
00:08:23,989 --> 00:08:25,410
with my directives.

254
00:08:26,279 --> 00:08:29,570
I'm in the driver's seat and I'm gonna get us where we need to go.

255
00:08:30,950 --> 00:08:33,330
And the reality is that we're adults

256
00:08:33,710 --> 00:08:35,130
and we have adulthood bias

257
00:08:35,549 --> 00:08:37,049
and we forget what it's like to be a kid.

258
00:08:38,369 --> 00:08:41,429
And we certainly cannot put ourselves in that child's shoes

259
00:08:41,849 --> 00:08:43,289
and know what they need to work on,

260
00:08:43,330 --> 00:08:44,090
in what order,

261
00:08:44,210 --> 00:08:45,320
what they can handle,

262
00:08:45,729 --> 00:08:47,070
what they're ready to face,

263
00:08:47,570 --> 00:08:50,789
what is the most pressing according to their standards

264
00:08:51,169 --> 00:08:52,169
they need to address.

265
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,309
We can't presume to know any of that.

266
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:57,840
But when we do something,

267
00:08:57,919 --> 00:08:59,409
that's exactly what's happening.

268
00:09:01,619 --> 00:09:02,640
And so,

269
00:09:02,940 --> 00:09:03,640
our

270
00:09:04,260 --> 00:09:04,700
doing,

271
00:09:04,780 --> 00:09:05,419
if you will,

272
00:09:05,500 --> 00:09:07,039
I'm air quoting that because

273
00:09:07,179 --> 00:09:08,099
I don't even like the word,

274
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:08,559
but

275
00:09:09,020 --> 00:09:09,900
our doing.

276
00:09:11,109 --> 00:09:11,849
Is

277
00:09:12,190 --> 00:09:13,750
staying out of the child's way.

278
00:09:14,150 --> 00:09:15,809
If we're gonna do anything,

279
00:09:16,109 --> 00:09:16,869
this is ironic,

280
00:09:16,929 --> 00:09:17,690
I do realize,

281
00:09:18,070 --> 00:09:19,830
if we're going to do anything.

282
00:09:21,020 --> 00:09:23,960
We're going to intentionally stay out of the child's way.

283
00:09:25,349 --> 00:09:28,890
And we're going to provide unconditional acceptance in the relationship.

284
00:09:29,429 --> 00:09:31,289
We're going to provide the safety

285
00:09:31,869 --> 00:09:34,369
and the predictability of the environment of the playroom.

286
00:09:35,130 --> 00:09:37,349
We're going to convey the bee with attitudes.

287
00:09:38,109 --> 00:09:41,570
We're going to remain adherent to a proven model.

288
00:09:43,429 --> 00:09:45,309
Those are the things that we do.

289
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:50,260
None of those are related to the child's clinical

290
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:51,119
progress.

291
00:09:53,359 --> 00:09:56,090
So we don't have to do anything

292
00:09:56,789 --> 00:09:59,150
to get the child where the child needs to go.

293
00:10:00,210 --> 00:10:01,909
All the things that we do

294
00:10:02,289 --> 00:10:03,950
are related to adherence

295
00:10:04,159 --> 00:10:06,429
and belief that the model is enough.

296
00:10:06,890 --> 00:10:07,320
Remember,

297
00:10:07,369 --> 00:10:08,369
I've said this before,

298
00:10:08,429 --> 00:10:09,409
but not in a while,

299
00:10:09,690 --> 00:10:12,890
it's not CCPT plus or minus anything.

300
00:10:14,229 --> 00:10:16,969
The second that we start changing things

301
00:10:17,270 --> 00:10:18,109
in any way,

302
00:10:18,270 --> 00:10:19,570
adding or taking away.

303
00:10:20,979 --> 00:10:22,580
We've lost sight of the model,

304
00:10:22,780 --> 00:10:24,400
we've lost efficacy,

305
00:10:24,900 --> 00:10:27,419
and we have no idea what's going to come out of that.

306
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:30,320
So,

307
00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:33,640
our advocacy for the model is.

308
00:10:34,780 --> 00:10:35,479
That

309
00:10:35,979 --> 00:10:37,280
I'm always

310
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,359
very purposefully and thoughtfully engaged.

311
00:10:41,929 --> 00:10:42,090
I,

312
00:10:42,130 --> 00:10:43,280
I think a related myth,

313
00:10:43,330 --> 00:10:45,309
and I don't know if maybe I'll do a complete

314
00:10:45,659 --> 00:10:46,130
episode on this,

315
00:10:46,210 --> 00:10:46,510
but

316
00:10:46,650 --> 00:10:48,229
I think a related myth is,

317
00:10:48,770 --> 00:10:50,510
so you just sit there and watch them play.

318
00:10:51,729 --> 00:10:52,479
No,

319
00:10:52,890 --> 00:10:55,190
that is the furthest thing from what we do.

320
00:10:55,570 --> 00:10:57,770
That's one of my favorite things about CCPT

321
00:10:58,179 --> 00:10:59,929
is there's a framework,

322
00:11:00,450 --> 00:11:01,169
there's structure,

323
00:11:01,289 --> 00:11:02,390
there's a system.

324
00:11:02,890 --> 00:11:04,919
You follow the model.

325
00:11:05,210 --> 00:11:06,159
You're not guessing,

326
00:11:06,289 --> 00:11:07,190
you're not wondering,

327
00:11:07,250 --> 00:11:08,309
you're not confused.

328
00:11:08,530 --> 00:11:10,750
You know exactly how

329
00:11:11,210 --> 00:11:12,729
you are to respond.

330
00:11:14,150 --> 00:11:15,570
And that is

331
00:11:15,830 --> 00:11:16,780
in that,

332
00:11:16,869 --> 00:11:18,169
in that adherence,

333
00:11:18,229 --> 00:11:21,890
and in that knowledge of the way that CCPT unfolds,

334
00:11:22,510 --> 00:11:24,200
that is where healing takes place.

335
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:26,599
So I hope that that encourages you.

336
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:27,979
I hope that you all feel

337
00:11:28,090 --> 00:11:29,880
a little more inspired to.

338
00:11:31,090 --> 00:11:32,349
Be mindful

339
00:11:32,969 --> 00:11:35,330
that our doing is very different.

340
00:11:36,359 --> 00:11:37,929
And don't feel the pressure,

341
00:11:38,090 --> 00:11:39,210
don't concede.

342
00:11:39,729 --> 00:11:42,070
Don't feel like you have to accommodate

343
00:11:42,580 --> 00:11:42,989
other

344
00:11:43,340 --> 00:11:46,030
beliefs and ways of doing and ways of thinking because

345
00:11:46,369 --> 00:11:48,210
that's no longer CCPT

346
00:11:48,650 --> 00:11:50,330
and we are CCPT

347
00:11:50,770 --> 00:11:51,549
through and through.

348
00:11:52,090 --> 00:11:52,650
I love y'all.

349
00:11:52,729 --> 00:11:53,190
Have a great week.

350
00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:54,159
We'll talk again soon.

351
00:11:54,340 --> 00:11:54,609
Bye.
