Ariel, do you notice anything different about me today
0:02
on this recording call?
0:04
Well, Ned, you seem like you've been power-posing.
0:10
I have been power-posing, Ariel.
0:13
I am standing up today because I have a desk that stands up.
0:16
And when I worked in an office, I was way more productive
0:19
when I worked at a standing desk.
0:20
And then I come home and I exclusively sit.
0:23
The other day, I was like, I would like to be productive.
0:26
And now my desk is up here.
0:28
The tip of the day is also from when I worked in that office,
0:31
which is, hey, do you have a short meeting,
0:33
like a 15-minute stand-up or a one-on-one that's going to be quick?
0:36
Try taking it as a meeting standing up.
0:38
If you have a break room, take it there.
0:40
Try not sitting down.
0:42
I have found that sitting down slows down a lot of conversations.
0:47
And if it needs to be a quick one, if you need to get in,
0:49
get out, try just being standing up the whole time.
0:51
That's the tip of the day.
0:52
The same is actually true for phone calls.
0:54
Try taking them walking.
0:55
It's a similar vibe.
0:56
I first shot out of college.
0:58
I was really bought into the sitting as the new cancer
1:02
and having been a very active.
1:05
Do you remember that when people were saying that?
1:07
I never heard that in my life.
1:10
I think there was straight up an article that said that.
1:13
That's very offensive, but it was definitely a belief.
1:17
And I took it to heart because I went from being somebody
1:21
who was walking around all the time in college.
1:23
And before that, playing sports all the time in high school
1:26
to having to sit for eight hours a day in an office,
1:31
And so I made a standing desk.
1:33
But of course, this company was not paying for me
1:35
to have a standing desk.
1:35
So I just took like a bunch of cardboard boxes.
1:38
And everyone looked at me like I was crazy.
1:39
But I was ahead of my time.
1:42
Hey, for all you know, they all got cancer.
1:50
I think it's the new cancer.
1:52
The sitting is the new cancer, it's crazy.
1:55
I said, hey, watch it.
1:58
I'm going to stand up.
2:00
I could really go for right now.
2:03
Literally anything that comes in a McDonald's carton,
2:06
wrapper, or bag, or a McDonald's cup.
2:10

If you're a podcast host, listen up this once for you.
2:32
My name is Ally Jackson.
2:33
I'm the host of Finding Mr. Height, a dating and relationship
2:36
podcast that I've been doing for four years now,
2:38
sharing my positive and practical approach
2:40
to dating that's built on my own life experience.
2:43
And I wanted to share another experience that I've had,
2:45
my secret behind monetizing my show.
2:47
It's called Red Circle.
2:48
And I was just telling my colleague
2:50
about how much I love their platform.
2:52
With Red Circle, not only am I getting
2:54
a seamless hosting experience,
2:55
but I also love the support I receive in AdSales.
2:57
It's not just typical AdSales either.
2:59
It's targeted opportunities based on my show and my life.
3:03
And the platform is super simple.
3:04
You just set your preferences
3:05
and Red Circle matches you with sponsors
3:07
that align with your show.
3:08
You can vet every opportunity
3:10
and their platform gives you great analytics.
3:11
More recently too, my Red Circle team has brought me
3:14
opportunities outside of my podcast on social media.
3:16
To really augment the podcast partnerships,
3:18
bring them full circle.
3:19
I just can't recommend them enough.
