Yes, definitely. 21 00:01:08,121 --> 00:01:09,801 Speaker 3: So I don't know if you guys remember how I 22 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,521 Speaker 3: went through that phase with Reagan and I was explaining 23 00:01:12,521 --> 00:01:14,761 Speaker 3: to ask how she's finally gotten out of this phase now. 24 00:01:14,801 --> 00:01:17,361 Speaker 3: But every time I would like discipline her, she would 25 00:01:17,481 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 3: laugh at me and I'll be like, no, Reagan. And 26 00:01:20,441 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 3: we went through this whole battle with it. Anyway, She's 27 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 3: coming out the other end, and now I'll be like, 28 00:01:23,801 --> 00:01:26,481 Speaker 3: real girl, that's not nice. And she just turns to 29 00:01:26,521 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 3: water and starts crying. And I said to Ash, she 30 00:01:28,681 --> 00:01:30,121 Speaker 3: was like, I find it so much easier now she 31 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,441 Speaker 3: actually understands and comprehends what she's doing. But I said 32 00:01:33,441 --> 00:01:35,681 Speaker 3: to her, what I do is say if she hits 33 00:01:35,761 --> 00:01:38,761 Speaker 3: or hurts Miller or Lincoln, I actually walk over to 34 00:01:38,801 --> 00:01:40,881 Speaker 3: Miller or Lincoln and I give them. 35 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: All of my attention. 36 00:01:42,161 --> 00:01:44,681 Speaker 3: So rather than turning and facing Reagan first or saying 37 00:01:44,721 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 3: anything to her, I walk directly to Miller, and wherever 38 00:01:47,321 --> 00:01:49,561 Speaker 3: she's been hit or hurt, I rub and I kiss 39 00:01:49,601 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh. 40 00:01:50,121 --> 00:01:53,601 Speaker 1: My gosh, Miller, baby, I'm so sorry. Are you feeling okay? 41 00:01:53,721 --> 00:01:55,641 Speaker 1: I was like, that hurts when people hit you, doesn't it. 42 00:01:55,681 --> 00:01:59,001 Speaker 3: Miller and Reagan, what they're wanting in that moment is 43 00:01:59,041 --> 00:02:01,241 Speaker 3: your attention. I reckon most of the time when they're 44 00:02:01,281 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 3: lashing out like that, And then Reagan starts to cry 45 00:02:03,881 --> 00:02:04,801 Speaker 3: and then she comes up and she's like. 46 00:02:04,761 --> 00:02:06,281 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sorry Miller. 47 00:02:07,881 --> 00:02:09,881 Speaker 3: She was like, Wow, it's such a cool idea to 48 00:02:09,921 --> 00:02:12,201 Speaker 3: actually go to the one who's been hurt, rather than 49 00:02:12,201 --> 00:02:15,201 Speaker 3: going directly to Reagan and saying Reagan, like, you know, 50 00:02:15,401 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 3: it's not nice, we don't hit first, go to the 51 00:02:17,281 --> 00:02:20,641 Speaker 3: person mirror. I guess as well, yeah, how you want 52 00:02:20,641 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 3: them to react and respond, and then go to read 53 00:02:23,001 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 3: like and what I say to her is, how can 54 00:02:24,441 --> 00:02:26,721 Speaker 3: you do that differently last time? I know you're feeling frustrated. 55 00:02:26,721 --> 00:02:29,281 Speaker 3: Maybe you can come ask mummy for help. Yeah, you know, 56 00:02:29,441 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 3: ask Miller nicely, rather than whacking her in the head 57 00:02:31,881 --> 00:02:33,001 Speaker 3: and saying help me. 58 00:02:33,721 --> 00:02:36,521 Speaker 1: And I was saying, because Tyler's too so when she 59 00:02:36,601 --> 00:02:39,201 Speaker 1: does something that's not nice and I try to explain 60 00:02:39,201 --> 00:02:41,481 Speaker 1: that to her, she you just cris and screams. So 61 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,921 Speaker 1: then I'm spending the next like, you know, five ten 62 00:02:43,921 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: minutes trying to coregulate and co see with her. Meanwhile, 63 00:02:47,401 --> 00:02:49,761 Speaker 1: Taj is what sitting on the couch. He's been hurt. 64 00:02:50,041 --> 00:02:52,721 Speaker 1: Safety's not there, He's just sitting by himself while I'm 65 00:02:52,721 --> 00:02:55,041 Speaker 1: comforting her. But he's the one that got hurt. He's 66 00:02:55,041 --> 00:02:56,601 Speaker 1: the one that got hurt. So when you said that, 67 00:02:56,641 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: I was like, wow, I definitely should be. I feel 68 00:02:58,921 --> 00:03:01,961 Speaker 1: like attending to taj first, but I just think in 69 00:03:02,001 --> 00:03:04,441 Speaker 1: my head, I'm like, he's older, like he understands. She 70 00:03:04,441 --> 00:03:07,001 Speaker 1: doesn't understand, so I go to her more. But I'm like, 71 00:03:07,601 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: it would be a good way to show her, like, no, 72 00:03:09,601 --> 00:03:11,441 Speaker 1: that's hurt Taje. You look how sad he is and 73 00:03:11,481 --> 00:03:13,361 Speaker 1: he needs a cuddle, and then come back to her. 74 00:03:13,601 --> 00:03:15,161 Speaker 1: I think it's a really good idea. I saw it 75 00:03:15,201 --> 00:03:15,921 Speaker 1: somewhere one day. 76 00:03:16,121 --> 00:03:18,641 Speaker 3: It's probably one of those pages on Instagram, you know that, 77 00:03:20,121 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 3: And yeah, soon I saw it, I was like, wow, yeah, 78 00:03:22,881 --> 00:03:23,361 Speaker 3: I'm going to. 79 00:03:23,281 --> 00:03:26,601 Speaker 1: Do way to handle it. Yeah, mine is something that 80 00:03:26,641 --> 00:03:28,601 Speaker 1: I saw. It must have been a parenting page. But 81 00:03:28,641 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: it's good old Brene Brown. I feel like it's in 82 00:03:30,281 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: our parenting pages. I know, it's like my whole feed 83 00:03:33,641 --> 00:03:36,921 Speaker 1: anything Brene Brown says. I'm just like, mic Job, you 84 00:03:37,001 --> 00:03:39,881 Speaker 1: are amazing. I think she is such an incredible woman. 85 00:03:40,081 --> 00:03:41,761 Speaker 4: One of the things that we talk a lot about 86 00:03:41,801 --> 00:03:44,241 Speaker 4: in our family with our kids, starting probably in third 87 00:03:44,321 --> 00:03:47,921 Speaker 4: or fourth grade, when friendship stuff starts getting dicey, is 88 00:03:48,281 --> 00:03:51,361 Speaker 4: candle blower outers and This is a big lesson that 89 00:03:51,361 --> 00:03:54,321 Speaker 4: we teach our kids. We always say, you know, you've 90 00:03:54,361 --> 00:03:56,721 Speaker 4: got this flame, and this is your spirit, and this 91 00:03:56,881 --> 00:04:01,041 Speaker 4: is your soul, and this is your light. And sometimes 92 00:04:01,041 --> 00:04:04,921 Speaker 4: it'll shine really, really bright. And you want to surround 93 00:04:04,921 --> 00:04:08,601 Speaker 4: yourself with people who, when it's shining bright, think wow, 94 00:04:08,681 --> 00:04:10,961 Speaker 4: what a beautiful light. And you want to be the 95 00:04:11,041 --> 00:04:13,681 Speaker 4: type of friend that when people's lights. 96 00:04:13,761 --> 00:04:14,361 Speaker 1: You know, when your. 97 00:04:14,241 --> 00:04:16,721 Speaker 4: Friend's light is shining, you say, man, that's a great light. 98 00:04:17,281 --> 00:04:21,001 Speaker 4: And you want friends who protect your light. We don't 99 00:04:21,401 --> 00:04:25,241 Speaker 4: want to surround ourselves with candle blower outers. How many 100 00:04:25,281 --> 00:04:29,201 Speaker 4: of you have had that experience. We want someone who 101 00:04:29,641 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 4: has room in their life for our light, because our 102 00:04:32,401 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 4: light comes with us. 103 00:04:34,361 --> 00:04:37,481 Speaker 1: So beautiful, right, beautiful. You want to be around people 104 00:04:37,521 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: that celebrate your light and say, wow, that's a beautiful light, 105 00:04:40,681 --> 00:04:42,881 Speaker 1: rather than try and blow you out and put you 106 00:04:42,961 --> 00:04:45,001 Speaker 1: down and park you to the side, or tell you 107 00:04:45,001 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: you know, your light's not good enough. So cool, What 108 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,121 Speaker 1: a cool concept. It's a really cool way to explain 109 00:04:49,161 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: to the kids. Yeah, keep your light and your fire going, 110 00:04:52,681 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: don't ever let anyone blow you out. So cool, So cool. 111 00:04:55,921 --> 00:05:00,121 Speaker 1: I love Brown, Yeah, I love her too. Well, today's 112 00:05:00,161 --> 00:05:04,401 Speaker 1: episode is a Q and A based around Baseline and 113 00:05:04,761 --> 00:05:07,961 Speaker 1: my surgery. Because after I put that episode out, it 114 00:05:08,201 --> 00:05:11,041 Speaker 1: got more downloads than I think any other episode we've had, 115 00:05:11,641 --> 00:05:13,801 Speaker 1: and my DM's been flighting. We put it into the 116 00:05:13,841 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: forum and there's just a lot of other things to 117 00:05:15,721 --> 00:05:18,681 Speaker 1: unpack around it, I suppose. So if you haven't listened 118 00:05:18,681 --> 00:05:21,361 Speaker 1: to that episode, it's titled I Think Brain Surgery and 119 00:05:21,401 --> 00:05:24,161 Speaker 1: closing down Bassline, listen to that one first and then 120 00:05:24,201 --> 00:05:25,561 Speaker 1: come back and listen to this one. But we've got 121 00:05:25,601 --> 00:05:27,241 Speaker 1: a list of questions that Kiara is gonna ask me. 122 00:05:27,281 --> 00:05:28,961 Speaker 1: There's a couple of kyr at the end as well, 123 00:05:29,561 --> 00:05:31,721 Speaker 1: so we're just gonna have a little chat about it all. 124 00:05:32,001 --> 00:05:36,641 Speaker 3: Yeah, So first question is what's it been like not 125 00:05:36,841 --> 00:05:37,921 Speaker 3: having Baseline. 126 00:05:38,121 --> 00:05:42,561 Speaker 1: Oh, it's been amazing. Yes, it's been so nice. I 127 00:05:42,601 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: do miss parts of it, Like I missed the design aspect, 128 00:05:45,481 --> 00:05:48,481 Speaker 1: I missed the fittings, I miss the creativity of the 129 00:05:48,481 --> 00:05:52,681 Speaker 1: photo shoots and like that was really fun. But like 130 00:05:52,721 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: I said in that other episode, it's like twenty percent 131 00:05:54,601 --> 00:05:57,881 Speaker 1: of it. I do not miss majority of it, and 132 00:05:58,041 --> 00:06:01,081 Speaker 1: just the mental load, Like it's honestly what I thought 133 00:06:01,081 --> 00:06:03,721 Speaker 1: about from the moment I woke up being all day 134 00:06:03,761 --> 00:06:06,321 Speaker 1: at work, night time, when the kids went to bed, 135 00:06:06,401 --> 00:06:09,361 Speaker 1: I just never stopped on the weekend. I was always 136 00:06:09,361 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: just thinking about, like selling these clothes, and there was 137 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,121 Speaker 1: so much pressure on me too, because I had to 138 00:06:14,121 --> 00:06:16,001 Speaker 1: support a team, and like you've got bills to pay 139 00:06:16,041 --> 00:06:19,121 Speaker 1: and you're aways thinking ahead, Like honestly, my mental lobe 140 00:06:19,161 --> 00:06:22,121 Speaker 1: was just too much so to not have that. I 141 00:06:22,161 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: feel so much freer. I feel so much more relaxed, 142 00:06:24,801 --> 00:06:27,001 Speaker 1: I feel so much more feminine. I'm so much more 143 00:06:27,481 --> 00:06:30,361 Speaker 1: in touch with my emotions. I'm so much more calmer 144 00:06:30,401 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: with my kids. I have so much more capacity and 145 00:06:33,361 --> 00:06:35,801 Speaker 1: energy for them and for Steve, and which is a 146 00:06:35,801 --> 00:06:38,721 Speaker 1: big reason why I close it down, because they are 147 00:06:38,761 --> 00:06:41,881 Speaker 1: what's important to me. I was like, my values are 148 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: not matching up how I'm living. I value health, freedom, time, 149 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,521 Speaker 1: my family, and Baseline's not giving me any of that. 150 00:06:48,721 --> 00:06:50,721 Speaker 1: Why am I doing this so to be able to 151 00:06:50,761 --> 00:06:53,761 Speaker 1: actually feel that now, it's really beautiful, that's so yeah, 152 00:06:54,721 --> 00:06:55,241 Speaker 1: I kept. 153 00:06:55,041 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: Saying to Ashi when she was like making this decision, 154 00:06:57,921 --> 00:06:59,681 Speaker 3: and once you became really like okay with it, when 155 00:06:59,721 --> 00:07:01,641 Speaker 3: you're like, no, I'm so ready, I was like just 156 00:07:01,641 --> 00:07:04,281 Speaker 3: imagine your life in like six months from now, a 157 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:05,001 Speaker 3: year from now. 158 00:07:05,121 --> 00:07:07,161 Speaker 1: Different it's going to be. And it's so exciting. It's 159 00:07:07,201 --> 00:07:09,601 Speaker 1: so exciting and it's crazy. Like I walked in a girlfriend, 160 00:07:09,641 --> 00:07:11,601 Speaker 1: na Dean's house and her and Tara were there, one 161 00:07:11,641 --> 00:07:14,281 Speaker 1: of her girlfriends, and they were just like, there's just 162 00:07:14,281 --> 00:07:17,121 Speaker 1: something different about you. It's like this whole energy. And 163 00:07:17,201 --> 00:07:20,121 Speaker 1: Nadine's known me since I was fifteen, and so we've 164 00:07:20,161 --> 00:07:22,401 Speaker 1: got a long standing friendship. She's been there through all 165 00:07:22,481 --> 00:07:24,241 Speaker 1: the ups and downs, and she's like, I've just never 166 00:07:24,281 --> 00:07:27,481 Speaker 1: seen you so relaxed, Like it's like this energy. It's 167 00:07:27,561 --> 00:07:29,841 Speaker 1: just like it's cool. I'm really excited for this next 168 00:07:29,841 --> 00:07:32,601 Speaker 1: ashy and that's how I feel. And I know it's 169 00:07:32,601 --> 00:07:36,521 Speaker 1: only going to get better and better. So it's very exciting. Yeap. 170 00:07:36,641 --> 00:07:38,641 Speaker 3: What we always say like, once you've become aware, you 171 00:07:38,641 --> 00:07:40,761 Speaker 3: haven't become unaware, and now you're like on this road, 172 00:07:41,161 --> 00:07:41,441 Speaker 3: you're on. 173 00:07:41,481 --> 00:07:42,601 Speaker 1: Your feels so right. 174 00:07:42,761 --> 00:07:45,601 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, what's been one of the biggest things you've 175 00:07:45,641 --> 00:07:46,801 Speaker 3: learned about yourself? 176 00:07:48,241 --> 00:07:52,201 Speaker 1: How much I had a masculine shield protecting me, and 177 00:07:52,281 --> 00:07:57,161 Speaker 1: how much working hard and achieving and proving and hustling 178 00:07:57,281 --> 00:08:00,601 Speaker 1: was my coping mechanism to keep busy and not feel. 179 00:08:01,921 --> 00:08:04,921 Speaker 1: And I think to a certain degree, I've allowed my 180 00:08:05,081 --> 00:08:07,241 Speaker 1: self to feel and heal and get help on everything. 181 00:08:07,361 --> 00:08:10,561 Speaker 1: But there's a certain level and point that you get 182 00:08:10,601 --> 00:08:13,321 Speaker 1: to of like feeling that safety in your own body 183 00:08:13,801 --> 00:08:17,041 Speaker 1: and feeling that sense of calm and really trusting. But 184 00:08:17,081 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: when you're so busy all the time, you just can't 185 00:08:19,921 --> 00:08:23,241 Speaker 1: access that kind of energy. You're in fight or flight, 186 00:08:23,321 --> 00:08:27,201 Speaker 1: you're constantly on. Like, I've just learned how much I 187 00:08:27,241 --> 00:08:29,721 Speaker 1: didn't allow myself to rest, and even now I have 188 00:08:29,841 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: naps most days on the weekends when Tyler sleeps. I've 189 00:08:33,201 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: told myself I'm not a napper, but I'm so exhausted, 190 00:08:36,121 --> 00:08:39,441 Speaker 1: like I'm just allowing myself to rest, and just how 191 00:08:39,481 --> 00:08:43,881 Speaker 1: much my body's needed this. There's been so many cool lessons, 192 00:08:43,881 --> 00:08:47,521 Speaker 1: but yeah, I definitely think from not having a healthy 193 00:08:47,641 --> 00:08:51,601 Speaker 1: masculine role model growing up. I put a masculine like 194 00:08:51,681 --> 00:08:54,881 Speaker 1: shield and mask on because I was like, I don't 195 00:08:54,881 --> 00:08:56,361 Speaker 1: need a man. I can do this by myself. I 196 00:08:56,401 --> 00:08:58,241 Speaker 1: have to do this by myself. I've got to protect myself. 197 00:08:58,241 --> 00:09:00,041 Speaker 1: I've got to stand on my own feet. I'm never 198 00:09:00,041 --> 00:09:03,041 Speaker 1: gonna rely on anyone, and that just doesn't feel good 199 00:09:03,041 --> 00:09:06,041 Speaker 1: for a feminine at her core. Still at the very 200 00:09:06,081 --> 00:09:09,081 Speaker 1: beginning of my journey, but learning how to soften has 201 00:09:09,121 --> 00:09:09,801 Speaker 1: been really cool. 202 00:09:10,321 --> 00:09:11,761 Speaker 3: How cool, though, to be at the beginning of a 203 00:09:11,761 --> 00:09:12,041 Speaker 3: new job. 204 00:09:12,161 --> 00:09:14,561 Speaker 1: I know, if I feel this good now, I can't 205 00:09:14,561 --> 00:09:17,881 Speaker 1: imagine in six months time now. And I'm getting help 206 00:09:17,961 --> 00:09:21,241 Speaker 1: for this. I've just hired a feminine coach, someone that 207 00:09:21,241 --> 00:09:24,161 Speaker 1: embodies all of this. This is her niches, is her passion. 208 00:09:24,281 --> 00:09:27,481 Speaker 1: She's lived, breathed, and gone through this herself, and I 209 00:09:27,481 --> 00:09:29,361 Speaker 1: was so drawn to her. So I'm really excited to 210 00:09:29,401 --> 00:09:31,841 Speaker 1: have her support through navigating this. Because I was talking 211 00:09:31,841 --> 00:09:34,961 Speaker 1: to Megsy about it. How like you catch yourself going 212 00:09:35,041 --> 00:09:37,961 Speaker 1: back into old patterns, You're like, oh, hang on, hang on. 213 00:09:38,161 --> 00:09:40,081 Speaker 1: Like even cleaning yesterday, I had a beautiful day with 214 00:09:40,121 --> 00:09:42,481 Speaker 1: the kids and then they were just playing and I 215 00:09:42,481 --> 00:09:44,241 Speaker 1: wanted to, like clean my whole house. I love a 216 00:09:44,281 --> 00:09:46,921 Speaker 1: clean environment. I stopped myself. I was like, are you 217 00:09:47,001 --> 00:09:50,201 Speaker 1: doing this because you think you need to be busy 218 00:09:50,241 --> 00:09:52,401 Speaker 1: and allowed to rest or? Are you doing this because 219 00:09:52,401 --> 00:09:55,241 Speaker 1: you genuinely want a clean house? And I was like, no, 220 00:09:55,361 --> 00:09:57,321 Speaker 1: I genuinely, like I have the energy and I feel 221 00:09:57,361 --> 00:09:59,281 Speaker 1: like I just want to clean up my environment. But 222 00:09:59,361 --> 00:10:01,561 Speaker 1: I think I've caught myself just like if I sit 223 00:10:01,641 --> 00:10:03,481 Speaker 1: down and relax, Oh, I've got to do this, I've 224 00:10:03,521 --> 00:10:06,121 Speaker 1: got to edit this, I've got to always on, there's 225 00:10:06,161 --> 00:10:08,001 Speaker 1: always a to do list, and now I'm just like 226 00:10:08,401 --> 00:10:11,161 Speaker 1: letting go more. And even how Nanny called in sick yesterday, 227 00:10:11,441 --> 00:10:14,201 Speaker 1: and normally that would send me an aspiral, like it 228 00:10:14,241 --> 00:10:16,681 Speaker 1: would put my work really far behind, especially when you've 229 00:10:16,721 --> 00:10:19,561 Speaker 1: got a team to show up for, but without base on, 230 00:10:19,641 --> 00:10:22,321 Speaker 1: I was like, ah, it's okay. Mainly if I can 231 00:10:22,361 --> 00:10:24,441 Speaker 1: record those podcasts another time, I can have my meeting 232 00:10:24,441 --> 00:10:26,641 Speaker 1: with my manager another day, and I get to have 233 00:10:26,641 --> 00:10:28,601 Speaker 1: another day with my kids. And I just went with 234 00:10:28,601 --> 00:10:30,681 Speaker 1: the flow, and it was so beautiful and so connecting, 235 00:10:30,721 --> 00:10:33,121 Speaker 1: and there wasn't that pressure of having to show up 236 00:10:33,121 --> 00:10:35,681 Speaker 1: and go on socials all day barely on my phone. 237 00:10:35,961 --> 00:10:40,081 Speaker 1: It was so nice I can do that now, whereas yeah, 238 00:10:40,321 --> 00:10:42,201 Speaker 1: back if we didn't have someone to watch the kids, 239 00:10:42,201 --> 00:10:43,441 Speaker 1: and I'd be on my phone all day trying to 240 00:10:43,481 --> 00:10:45,201 Speaker 1: keep up with the stuff and like what was going 241 00:10:45,201 --> 00:10:46,601 Speaker 1: on at that point in time, And it just felt 242 00:10:46,641 --> 00:10:49,281 Speaker 1: like I was giving everyone ten percent and I felt 243 00:10:49,361 --> 00:10:52,441 Speaker 1: so shit. So that's been really cool. That's really cool. 244 00:10:53,121 --> 00:10:56,161 Speaker 3: How does your work slash home life look and feel now? 245 00:10:57,401 --> 00:11:00,001 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm still working, because I think a 246 00:11:00,001 --> 00:11:02,281 Speaker 1: lot of people thought that once I closed down base 247 00:11:02,361 --> 00:11:04,641 Speaker 1: on it just like not doing anything. But it's not 248 00:11:04,721 --> 00:11:06,841 Speaker 1: like that. I actually have my toes dipped in quite 249 00:11:06,881 --> 00:11:09,561 Speaker 1: a few different things. And I've always said this in 250 00:11:09,561 --> 00:11:11,481 Speaker 1: the big episode too, but I've always wanted to help 251 00:11:11,521 --> 00:11:13,761 Speaker 1: more with Hideaway, but I haven't had the capacity. My 252 00:11:13,841 --> 00:11:16,361 Speaker 1: bandwidth was so stretched. It was like if Steve asked 253 00:11:16,361 --> 00:11:19,961 Speaker 1: me to do something, I'm like, babe, I can't, Like, 254 00:11:20,081 --> 00:11:22,361 Speaker 1: when am I going to do that? Whereas now I've 255 00:11:22,361 --> 00:11:24,721 Speaker 1: been able to get on the creative side of things 256 00:11:24,721 --> 00:11:27,401 Speaker 1: with Hideaway, all the marketing, the social media, the stuff 257 00:11:27,401 --> 00:11:29,921 Speaker 1: that really lights me up and gets me in that 258 00:11:30,001 --> 00:11:33,801 Speaker 1: really playful because feminine women were quite creative, but I 259 00:11:33,801 --> 00:11:35,681 Speaker 1: felt like I lost a lot of that whilst running 260 00:11:35,681 --> 00:11:38,001 Speaker 1: the business because it was so masculine. But now I 261 00:11:38,041 --> 00:11:40,401 Speaker 1: get to be so feminine and playful and silly and 262 00:11:40,441 --> 00:11:43,401 Speaker 1: fun and bring that into the work that really benefits 263 00:11:43,401 --> 00:11:45,441 Speaker 1: a business. It's really helping our business. So I've been 264 00:11:45,441 --> 00:11:47,601 Speaker 1: doing a lot of that and putting more time into 265 00:11:47,601 --> 00:11:50,081 Speaker 1: thinking about grow and glow. But otherwise just more time 266 00:11:50,121 --> 00:11:53,241 Speaker 1: with the kids and like more cooking and more cleaning 267 00:11:53,281 --> 00:11:56,441 Speaker 1: and more nurturing my house, like my home and Steve 268 00:11:56,521 --> 00:11:59,681 Speaker 1: and just I'm so much calmer with the kids. I'm 269 00:11:59,841 --> 00:12:02,721 Speaker 1: so much calmer for them. I have more space for them, 270 00:12:02,761 --> 00:12:06,561 Speaker 1: I've got more capacity. My tone has changed so much 271 00:12:06,601 --> 00:12:08,321 Speaker 1: with how I speak to them. Not that it was 272 00:12:08,361 --> 00:12:11,121 Speaker 1: ever really bad, but definitely if I was stretched, tired, 273 00:12:11,321 --> 00:12:13,921 Speaker 1: or work was on my mind, which was you know, 274 00:12:14,001 --> 00:12:16,041 Speaker 1: so often, I just felt like I was a bit 275 00:12:16,081 --> 00:12:19,041 Speaker 1: more shorter with them, and little things would irritate me 276 00:12:19,121 --> 00:12:22,841 Speaker 1: more because I was just stretched. Whereas now like I 277 00:12:22,961 --> 00:12:25,201 Speaker 1: just flow more with them, and I've got just yeah, 278 00:12:25,281 --> 00:12:27,841 Speaker 1: more space with them, which is so nice. They would 279 00:12:27,881 --> 00:12:30,881 Speaker 1: feel that, They would definitely feel that. You definitely seem 280 00:12:30,961 --> 00:12:34,121 Speaker 1: a lot more well regulated. So well regulated, Like you 281 00:12:34,161 --> 00:12:35,961 Speaker 1: asked me this morning how I'm feeling about surgery, Like 282 00:12:36,001 --> 00:12:39,121 Speaker 1: everyone keeps asking me, expecting me to be like so stressed, 283 00:12:39,601 --> 00:12:41,361 Speaker 1: and I almost like I keep saying, I'm waiting for 284 00:12:41,361 --> 00:12:43,881 Speaker 1: the anxiety to kick in, Like you guys are listening 285 00:12:43,881 --> 00:12:46,201 Speaker 1: to this on Monday, Like I go into hospital this Wednesday. 286 00:12:47,081 --> 00:12:49,161 Speaker 1: You can see I feel so calm. Yeah, I feel 287 00:12:49,241 --> 00:12:51,001 Speaker 1: so good. I had to go to the hospital last 288 00:12:51,041 --> 00:12:53,801 Speaker 1: week for like four hour appointment. They checked my heart, 289 00:12:53,921 --> 00:12:58,321 Speaker 1: they checked my bloods. I spoke to the ansthesius person. 290 00:12:58,601 --> 00:13:00,081 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's what you call them, the 291 00:13:00,121 --> 00:13:02,121 Speaker 1: person that knocks you out. I got a full body 292 00:13:02,201 --> 00:13:04,601 Speaker 1: check from a doctor. They asked a hundred million questions, 293 00:13:05,081 --> 00:13:06,681 Speaker 1: and even that I just was like, I don't know. 294 00:13:06,961 --> 00:13:09,481 Speaker 1: Just feel so trusting and I know that everything's just 295 00:13:09,521 --> 00:13:13,281 Speaker 1: been so flowy and perfect and beautiful. So I just, yeah, 296 00:13:13,281 --> 00:13:16,041 Speaker 1: I do feel really regulated. I think I'm tired. I 297 00:13:16,041 --> 00:13:18,601 Speaker 1: feel like I manage stress very well, but my body 298 00:13:18,641 --> 00:13:21,961 Speaker 1: still feels it. So I feel tired just from going 299 00:13:22,001 --> 00:13:25,361 Speaker 1: through all of this. It's been a lot. Yeah, but 300 00:13:25,481 --> 00:13:27,481 Speaker 1: I feel calm about it, and I just fully trust 301 00:13:27,561 --> 00:13:29,801 Speaker 1: this is exactly my path. If I did not lose 302 00:13:29,841 --> 00:13:31,521 Speaker 1: my sight, and if I did not find out I 303 00:13:31,521 --> 00:13:34,001 Speaker 1: had a brain aneurism, would all of this be happening 304 00:13:34,041 --> 00:13:37,161 Speaker 1: right now. I would have kept pushing. I would have 305 00:13:37,241 --> 00:13:40,321 Speaker 1: kept pushing. There's no way I would have even considered 306 00:13:40,321 --> 00:13:42,601 Speaker 1: that as an option. And how long have I been 307 00:13:42,601 --> 00:13:45,281 Speaker 1: pushing for feeling like that probably a lot longer than 308 00:13:45,321 --> 00:13:48,401 Speaker 1: what I want to admit, if I'm being completely honest. Yeah, 309 00:13:48,721 --> 00:13:51,081 Speaker 1: I feel bad saying that because I had a team 310 00:13:51,121 --> 00:13:53,921 Speaker 1: and like I did love parts of it, but I 311 00:13:53,921 --> 00:13:55,681 Speaker 1: think I've been pushing for way longer than I would 312 00:13:55,681 --> 00:13:56,241 Speaker 1: want to admit. 313 00:13:57,841 --> 00:14:00,321 Speaker 3: What are the risks involved with you getting your surgery 314 00:14:00,441 --> 00:14:01,561 Speaker 3: or not getting surgery? 315 00:14:02,241 --> 00:14:05,321 Speaker 1: So the risks of not getting surgery is kind of 316 00:14:05,321 --> 00:14:08,521 Speaker 1: walking around like a ticking time bomb at any point 317 00:14:08,601 --> 00:14:12,481 Speaker 1: of time, and aneurism can burst. If it does, it's 318 00:14:12,721 --> 00:14:17,041 Speaker 1: likely that you will die or you will stroke, and 319 00:14:17,081 --> 00:14:20,921 Speaker 1: they're huge things. You could have just permanent brain damage. 320 00:14:20,961 --> 00:14:24,081 Speaker 1: Your body does not function how I'm used to, so 321 00:14:24,081 --> 00:14:27,361 Speaker 1: they're pretty scary things. So that's why they put it 322 00:14:27,401 --> 00:14:29,761 Speaker 1: to me. When I went the second time they suggested surgery, 323 00:14:29,841 --> 00:14:32,281 Speaker 1: I was like, but it's not big and like, you know, 324 00:14:32,441 --> 00:14:34,241 Speaker 1: last time, you guys pretty much said I'll come back 325 00:14:34,241 --> 00:14:35,681 Speaker 1: ever read once a year and just get it checked. 326 00:14:35,681 --> 00:14:37,641 Speaker 1: And I was kind of shocked, and they said, just 327 00:14:37,681 --> 00:14:40,161 Speaker 1: think of this like it's preventing that from happening if 328 00:14:40,201 --> 00:14:42,081 Speaker 1: we can do something about it. And yes, yours is 329 00:14:42,201 --> 00:14:46,521 Speaker 1: small earth than some, but it's big enough that it 330 00:14:46,521 --> 00:14:50,481 Speaker 1: can still rupture, so why would you risk that going 331 00:14:50,521 --> 00:14:53,641 Speaker 1: into surgery. There is still risks though. It's like one 332 00:14:53,641 --> 00:14:56,241 Speaker 1: to two people in every hundred stroke on the table 333 00:14:56,961 --> 00:14:59,441 Speaker 1: and one to two people on the table have a 334 00:14:59,521 --> 00:15:02,001 Speaker 1: rupture on the table. But she said, if it's going 335 00:15:02,081 --> 00:15:04,001 Speaker 1: to happen, you want it happening on the table because 336 00:15:04,001 --> 00:15:08,081 Speaker 1: I'm right here, so I can prevent or lessen the 337 00:15:08,161 --> 00:15:11,161 Speaker 1: damage that potentially could happen to you. Whereas if you're 338 00:15:11,161 --> 00:15:14,441 Speaker 1: out shopping or at training and you have a bleed 339 00:15:15,161 --> 00:15:16,921 Speaker 1: by the time you get to the hospital, it could 340 00:15:16,921 --> 00:15:19,161 Speaker 1: be too late. The damage on your brain could be 341 00:15:19,281 --> 00:15:23,121 Speaker 1: too far gone. So it's more risking not to get 342 00:15:23,121 --> 00:15:25,561 Speaker 1: the surgery, Yes, especially when you've got so much more 343 00:15:25,601 --> 00:15:27,841 Speaker 1: of your life to live. Yeah, like I'm only thirty 344 00:15:27,881 --> 00:15:30,281 Speaker 1: five and I have two kids. But yeah, that's definitely 345 00:15:30,281 --> 00:15:33,121 Speaker 1: the scariest thing about going in this week to surgery 346 00:15:33,201 --> 00:15:35,521 Speaker 1: is like that thought of like I could wake up 347 00:15:35,601 --> 00:15:37,241 Speaker 1: and I could have had a stroke, and I might 348 00:15:37,281 --> 00:15:39,201 Speaker 1: not have access to be able to use my left 349 00:15:39,281 --> 00:15:42,321 Speaker 1: arm and leg how I've always used it. I could 350 00:15:42,321 --> 00:15:44,161 Speaker 1: wake up and have brain damage if it's bled. I 351 00:15:44,201 --> 00:15:46,681 Speaker 1: don't know, like that is a possibility, So that's the 352 00:15:46,721 --> 00:15:49,121 Speaker 1: scariest thing, is like, and Steve's been through this, so 353 00:15:49,241 --> 00:15:51,281 Speaker 1: he said he remembers waking up. He was way more 354 00:15:51,281 --> 00:15:53,841 Speaker 1: complicated than mine. He couldn't see for six weeks, so 355 00:15:53,921 --> 00:15:56,521 Speaker 1: he woke up and he's just basically blind and every 356 00:15:56,601 --> 00:15:58,401 Speaker 1: day he's waking up checking if he can see, and 357 00:15:58,401 --> 00:16:01,441 Speaker 1: he can't see. So it's just six weeks is a 358 00:16:01,481 --> 00:16:04,561 Speaker 1: long time as well to imagine, so might not just 359 00:16:04,641 --> 00:16:06,561 Speaker 1: be waking up in like did everything go to plan? 360 00:16:06,681 --> 00:16:06,761 Speaker 2: Like? 361 00:16:06,801 --> 00:16:09,521 Speaker 1: Am I okay? That will be my first question? And 362 00:16:09,561 --> 00:16:11,721 Speaker 1: then they said the day that I get surgery, I mean, 363 00:16:11,881 --> 00:16:13,401 Speaker 1: ic you of twenty four hours, I have a nurse 364 00:16:13,441 --> 00:16:15,481 Speaker 1: with me the whole time, and they wake you up 365 00:16:15,521 --> 00:16:17,201 Speaker 1: every hour to like do test to make sure that 366 00:16:17,241 --> 00:16:20,361 Speaker 1: your brain's working. And Steve's like, I remember that. So 367 00:16:20,361 --> 00:16:23,161 Speaker 1: that would just be yeah, nerve racking, I suppose. But 368 00:16:23,201 --> 00:16:25,081 Speaker 1: then once I get home, I think I'll be like cool, 369 00:16:25,241 --> 00:16:27,321 Speaker 1: I'm all good, and then I just have to rest 370 00:16:27,361 --> 00:16:28,201 Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks. 371 00:16:28,601 --> 00:16:32,201 Speaker 3: What were your weaknesses with running a business now? Reflecting back. 372 00:16:33,801 --> 00:16:39,881 Speaker 1: Many I'm not good with finances. I'm not I hate it. 373 00:16:40,121 --> 00:16:42,641 Speaker 1: I'm not good at it. It overwhelms me, I almost 374 00:16:42,681 --> 00:16:44,961 Speaker 1: like just like turn a blind eye to it. Even 375 00:16:44,961 --> 00:16:46,841 Speaker 1: with LEVI I would like try and explain things to me. 376 00:16:46,881 --> 00:16:48,401 Speaker 1: I'm like, as long as you've got it covered, I 377 00:16:48,521 --> 00:16:51,401 Speaker 1: really don't care. I don't want to not numbers, like 378 00:16:51,521 --> 00:16:53,921 Speaker 1: it's not my driver. But when you run a business, 379 00:16:53,961 --> 00:16:56,001 Speaker 1: you can't avoid that. You have to be involved in it. 380 00:16:56,041 --> 00:16:58,721 Speaker 1: You have to understand it. I don't think I'm the 381 00:16:58,801 --> 00:17:05,721 Speaker 1: greatest team leader really no, especially watching Steve. I'm too 382 00:17:05,761 --> 00:17:10,441 Speaker 1: friendly and to buddy buddy and like fit around everyone 383 00:17:10,441 --> 00:17:13,801 Speaker 1: else's schedule and like very flexible, which is great and 384 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,041 Speaker 1: I don't regret that, but it's almost like, where's the boundaries. 385 00:17:17,120 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: I didn't set boundaries, and sometimes I think I felt 386 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,161 Speaker 1: a little bit taken advantage of, or just different situations 387 00:17:23,201 --> 00:17:25,201 Speaker 1: which I won't go into because they're personal, but different 388 00:17:25,241 --> 00:17:27,281 Speaker 1: situations where I'm like, whoa, if this was any other 389 00:17:27,321 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 1: normal job, or I'd be like relaying the story to 390 00:17:29,481 --> 00:17:32,521 Speaker 1: like you or Nadina or someone. They're like that doesn't 391 00:17:32,521 --> 00:17:34,561 Speaker 1: fucking happen in a real job. You can't just not 392 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,321 Speaker 1: turn up or you can't just not do this. You know, 393 00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: there's just different situations. I was like, no, it's okay, 394 00:17:38,481 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: Like I get it, but then the stress would be 395 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,961 Speaker 1: on me. So I just feel like I wasn't very 396 00:17:42,961 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: good at separating friendship with work and worrying the different 397 00:17:46,481 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: hats because I wanted to be liked, I wanted to 398 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,041 Speaker 1: be accepted. I wanted them to think I was a 399 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: cool boss. I wanted them to love every moment at work. 400 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: I really found that hard, where Steve was like, just 401 00:17:56,681 --> 00:17:58,281 Speaker 1: you can't be that friendly like that, they're to do 402 00:17:58,321 --> 00:18:00,120 Speaker 1: a job, blah blah. I know, but that's easy for 403 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 1: a man to say. Like women, we connect, we talk. 404 00:18:03,321 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: I genuinely care about these women. I want to know 405 00:18:05,241 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 1: about their weekends. I want to know what's happening in 406 00:18:06,921 --> 00:18:08,841 Speaker 1: their lives. I want them to be happy. I want 407 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: to support them with their kids. I want to, you know, 408 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: do all those things. But I think it, Yeah, it 409 00:18:12,961 --> 00:18:15,321 Speaker 1: was just hard to manage, to be honest, I just 410 00:18:15,321 --> 00:18:16,561 Speaker 1: don't think I was very good at And I watch 411 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,201 Speaker 1: how Steve manages his hideaway team, and he's so fucking 412 00:18:19,201 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: good at it. Yeah, he's friends with them all and 413 00:18:21,241 --> 00:18:23,521 Speaker 1: they all love and respect him, and they've got such 414 00:18:23,561 --> 00:18:26,721 Speaker 1: great culture. Respect. That's a word too. When it gets 415 00:18:26,761 --> 00:18:27,201 Speaker 1: too friendly. 416 00:18:27,241 --> 00:18:30,281 Speaker 3: Sometimes it can blur the line of like respectfulness to your. 417 00:18:30,201 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: Boss and you. And I think I noticed differently how 418 00:18:33,201 --> 00:18:36,281 Speaker 1: they'd be around me compared to Stephen Levi. I was 419 00:18:36,281 --> 00:18:38,001 Speaker 1: like their buddy that they felt so comfortable with, and 420 00:18:38,001 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 1: it was just like a different energy. And I was like, 421 00:18:40,360 --> 00:18:42,041 Speaker 1: this is my fault. Though I've set this up, so 422 00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:44,081 Speaker 1: take full responsibility, but I'm just not very good at it. 423 00:18:44,521 --> 00:18:46,721 Speaker 1: I'm not good at it, never have been. Yeah, I 424 00:18:46,721 --> 00:18:48,681 Speaker 1: don't know how to draw those lines and put boundaries 425 00:18:48,721 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: in so that was a massive weakness. When you can 426 00:18:51,521 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 1: reflect back sometimes hey, I know, and I take full responsibility. 427 00:18:54,321 --> 00:18:56,041 Speaker 1: This is not on my team, not at all. They 428 00:18:56,041 --> 00:18:58,561 Speaker 1: were incredible staff members. They worked so fucking hard for 429 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,281 Speaker 1: the brand. And I'm talking like this isn't just the 430 00:19:01,321 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 1: most recent period. Like remember I've been in business for 431 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,281 Speaker 1: fifteen years. My closest friends worked with me. I can't 432 00:19:07,281 --> 00:19:10,121 Speaker 1: separate that, like I've been close with majority of them. 433 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,361 Speaker 1: Like it's such a hard thing. So this is not 434 00:19:12,441 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: just speaking of recent staff members. This has gone on 435 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 1: for the last fifteen years, and it's something Steve's always 436 00:19:17,721 --> 00:19:18,361 Speaker 1: commented on. 437 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,961 Speaker 3: Aside from exercise, will you be changing up your health 438 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:23,561 Speaker 3: routine after surgery at all. 439 00:19:24,441 --> 00:19:26,241 Speaker 1: Yeah, So I got all my blood's done with Levi, 440 00:19:26,321 --> 00:19:28,041 Speaker 1: and I'm going through a big process with him, and 441 00:19:28,120 --> 00:19:30,561 Speaker 1: he wants to do a lot of actual genetic testing. 442 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,481 Speaker 1: I think my brain aneurysm is hereditary and there's obviously 443 00:19:35,481 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 1: genetic weaknesses, and because all the people on my father's 444 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,681 Speaker 1: side have either died from my aneurysm or they've got 445 00:19:42,681 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: one and it's being monitored, so it's obviously runs my family. 446 00:19:45,001 --> 00:19:47,521 Speaker 1: So he wants to actually put me on some supplements 447 00:19:47,561 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: that will help strengthen my capillaries and my blood flow. 448 00:19:49,961 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: We need to do some further testing on that. He 449 00:19:51,961 --> 00:19:55,680 Speaker 1: wants to just investigate my genetic weaknesses more in depth. 450 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:57,801 Speaker 1: And I'm so lucky I've got him to be able 451 00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,041 Speaker 1: to go thro because I wouldn't have a clue how 452 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,561 Speaker 1: to do any of this, and he's, you know, so 453 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,481 Speaker 1: supportive and wants to do that with me. So Yeah, 454 00:20:03,481 --> 00:20:05,401 Speaker 1: there'll be different supplements that will probably take the rest 455 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,201 Speaker 1: of my life that will help hopefully lessen my chances 456 00:20:08,241 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: of another aneurysm forming. Amazing because they have told me 457 00:20:11,561 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 1: that it's quite likely another one will form by the 458 00:20:14,360 --> 00:20:17,441 Speaker 1: time I die, okay, So Levi's like, let's do everything 459 00:20:17,481 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: we can to stop that. Sorry, as exercise, exercise is 460 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,601 Speaker 1: good for me, I don't think that's something I will 461 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,361 Speaker 1: ever not do. And I eat a really well balanced diet, 462 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: so nothing else will really change. But as I'm entering 463 00:20:27,481 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 1: this softer season, I just think the more resting and 464 00:20:30,961 --> 00:20:33,561 Speaker 1: not being hustling and going and stressing all the time, 465 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: I think naturally I'm just going to feel more calmer 466 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,721 Speaker 1: and healthier. And even like this last couple of months, 467 00:20:39,721 --> 00:20:43,281 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm definitely more inflamed. My skin's broken out, 468 00:20:43,321 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: my skin's more oily. I definitely feel my digestic system 469 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,801 Speaker 1: isn't the best at the moment, and I really do 470 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: put it down to stress, like stress is just like 471 00:20:51,441 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: a killer. Yeah. And like I said, I'm feel regulated, 472 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: but my body is showing symptoms of just like yeah, inflammation, 473 00:20:57,561 --> 00:20:59,201 Speaker 1: And I'm not allowed to take any of my supplements 474 00:20:59,201 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: at the moment either, can't take tumeric, magnesium, zinc all 475 00:21:02,120 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: my stuftimes to stop it three weeks up to it, 476 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,121 Speaker 1: which is huge for me. I've taken supplements all the time, 477 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,761 Speaker 1: so I just don't feel as good. So I'm looking 478 00:21:10,761 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: forward to after surgery obviously being put to sleep and 479 00:21:14,281 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: like antibiotics and anything that put me on, my gut's 480 00:21:16,721 --> 00:21:19,281 Speaker 1: going to be completely torn to shreds. So I'm gonna 481 00:21:19,281 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: have to start a whole like gut protocol, do a 482 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,001 Speaker 1: full course of probotic, lots of broths out glued. Am 483 00:21:25,041 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: I just really trying to rebuild my gut lining and 484 00:21:27,481 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 1: even leave I setup to surgery, which I would have 485 00:21:29,441 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: naturally done anyway as well. Was like broth soups, just 486 00:21:32,281 --> 00:21:35,481 Speaker 1: things that are really easily broken down in your system. 487 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,201 Speaker 1: So no like red meats or anything. Slow cook stuff 488 00:21:38,201 --> 00:21:40,561 Speaker 1: would be really good just so your body doesn't have 489 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,281 Speaker 1: to work to digest it. You want to kind of 490 00:21:42,281 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: give your stomach a lot of rest time. So quite 491 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,481 Speaker 1: a process after that. Yeah, okay till I'm feeling good again. 492 00:21:48,681 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 3: Do you know how long you'll be unable to exercise 493 00:21:50,961 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 3: for and how will you navigate that given it's so 494 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 3: important to you. 495 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,641 Speaker 1: So I will probably be having four weeks in total 496 00:21:58,681 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: off and then easing back in with like walking and 497 00:22:02,441 --> 00:22:05,281 Speaker 1: then just lightweights and build myself up after that, And 498 00:22:05,321 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. I think rest is not spoken 499 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,521 Speaker 1: about enough, especially after surgery. I'm not going to go 500 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,801 Speaker 1: be silly and go lift weights or go for a 501 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:13,521 Speaker 1: run or anything. 502 00:22:13,561 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 3: Like. 503 00:22:13,721 --> 00:22:16,601 Speaker 1: My body needs the rest to recover, So I'm excited 504 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,481 Speaker 1: for the rest time, to be honest, and I feel 505 00:22:18,521 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: like I'm not going to feel any guilt about it. 506 00:22:20,120 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: Like I can't wait to lay around the house and 507 00:22:21,521 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: just not have anything to do. It's what my mind 508 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,561 Speaker 1: and body needs. Lap it up while you actually have. Yeah, 509 00:22:26,561 --> 00:22:30,281 Speaker 1: this whole thing, I think the universe was like shaking 510 00:22:30,321 --> 00:22:32,601 Speaker 1: me up to force me to slow down. And it's 511 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: got to the point that I didn't listen to all 512 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: the signs and signals and messages. Then now it's forced 513 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,041 Speaker 1: me to do it through surgery. I'm not going to 514 00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: ignore that anymore. No, I will listen to all the 515 00:22:41,921 --> 00:22:44,201 Speaker 1: symptoms my body gives me and know that they're there 516 00:22:44,201 --> 00:22:44,881 Speaker 1: for a purpose. 517 00:22:45,761 --> 00:22:50,081 Speaker 3: So, yeah, how did you explain the surgery to Taj 518 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,081 Speaker 3: and how has he reacted to it? 519 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,801 Speaker 1: Taj is very emotionally intelligent, Like we even had a 520 00:22:55,961 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 1: meeting with his teacher at the end of term last 521 00:22:57,681 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: term and she said he's just well beyond his years 522 00:23:00,961 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: the way he can articulate his emotions. So I just 523 00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: spoke to him like I would you. Yeah, I fully 524 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,281 Speaker 1: explained it, and he's like, I'm going to miss you 525 00:23:11,281 --> 00:23:13,521 Speaker 1: when you're in hospital. A couple of little comments like that, 526 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,881 Speaker 1: but overall he's pretty good about it. We will need 527 00:23:16,921 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 1: to get the kids checked. That's tricky because I was 528 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: trying to explain the MRI machine and he was like, 529 00:23:22,241 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: I'm not going in there. So that's going to be 530 00:23:24,921 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 1: tricky to navigate. Obviously, you can sedate your kids and 531 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: give them things to calm them down, but I just 532 00:23:29,921 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: don't want it it to be a traumatic experience in 533 00:23:32,721 --> 00:23:34,481 Speaker 1: case like he's going to have to have these later 534 00:23:34,481 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 1: on in life. So I'm not sure how ill navigate that. 535 00:23:37,921 --> 00:23:42,881 Speaker 1: There maybe have to be some sort of bribery. 536 00:23:40,321 --> 00:23:43,721 Speaker 3: Yeah. 537 00:23:43,801 --> 00:23:45,641 Speaker 1: I don't use it often, but if you do this, 538 00:23:45,801 --> 00:23:48,521 Speaker 1: I will buy you whatever nerve gud you want, honestly, 539 00:23:49,281 --> 00:23:51,321 Speaker 1: So I think we'll use some bribery just to make 540 00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:56,961 Speaker 1: it a fun, exciting experience incentive. Yeah, he loves staying 541 00:23:56,961 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: in high rise buildings, and maybe we'll say, if we 542 00:23:58,721 --> 00:24:00,281 Speaker 1: do this, we'll go to have a night, you know, 543 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: at Q one or whatever. So I think if we 544 00:24:02,801 --> 00:24:05,001 Speaker 1: make it fun for him. I think that will be 545 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:06,761 Speaker 1: the way to get through it. And then I'm not 546 00:24:06,761 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: sure about Tyler. It's just so little. But yeah, we 547 00:24:10,001 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: definitely need to get them checked. Both Steve and I 548 00:24:11,681 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 1: are having them. Steve's my hereditary. He hasn't had any 549 00:24:14,521 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: in his family, but mine is Steve's just because you 550 00:24:17,921 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 1: both have, the likelihood is pretty high. 551 00:24:21,201 --> 00:24:23,881 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you get them checked now, right, and then 552 00:24:24,281 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 3: it need to be consistent thing because they can just 553 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:26,881 Speaker 3: form at anytime. 554 00:24:27,481 --> 00:24:30,441 Speaker 1: So I'll get checked three months post surgery, six months 555 00:24:30,481 --> 00:24:33,121 Speaker 1: post surgery, twelve months post surgery, and then every year 556 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,241 Speaker 1: after that, yeah, the rest. 557 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:35,801 Speaker 3: Of me, and then the same for the kids. Right, 558 00:24:35,921 --> 00:24:38,081 Speaker 3: Like if they got checked there, maybe in a couple 559 00:24:38,120 --> 00:24:38,361 Speaker 3: of years. 560 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,041 Speaker 1: If they get checked and there's nothing there, I think 561 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 1: it'll be like every five years. Yeah it won't. 562 00:24:44,201 --> 00:24:47,561 Speaker 3: Yeah, do you feel already more feminine or how is 563 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 3: that journey going? 564 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: So much? So? But I also feel like I'm just 565 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,241 Speaker 1: at the start, Like I definitely feel so much more. 566 00:24:54,241 --> 00:24:57,681 Speaker 1: But when I listen to podcasts or like talk about 567 00:24:57,681 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: these conversations with my girlfriends, I'm like far out of it. 568 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:01,801 Speaker 1: A long way to go, but I'm really excited for 569 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 1: that that used to be quite daunting for me. But 570 00:25:04,441 --> 00:25:06,521 Speaker 1: I just feel like I'm like just scratching the service 571 00:25:06,561 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 1: at the moment and still learning about it all. And 572 00:25:08,681 --> 00:25:10,801 Speaker 1: that's why I've hired a coach, Like I've invested in, 573 00:25:10,921 --> 00:25:12,281 Speaker 1: like paying a lot of money to have a coach, 574 00:25:12,281 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: because I'm like, I want to really understand all of 575 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 1: this and then really embody it and have the accountability 576 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 1: of someone like being there to do it with me, 577 00:25:21,801 --> 00:25:23,361 Speaker 1: because it's one thing to understand it, but are you're 578 00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: actually practicing it? This is going to take a lot 579 00:25:25,681 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 1: of conscious practice. This is something I'm implementing every single 580 00:25:30,201 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 1: day from the way I moved, the way I talk. 581 00:25:32,921 --> 00:25:34,801 Speaker 1: Even yes Iday grocery shopping and I find myself like 582 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 1: rushing around like getting it all done. I was like, oh, girl, 583 00:25:38,241 --> 00:25:40,801 Speaker 1: just take a breath. If I can love grocery shopping, 584 00:25:40,801 --> 00:25:44,001 Speaker 1: why am I rushing this. There's no need to rush 585 00:25:44,001 --> 00:25:46,001 Speaker 1: through the aisles. I like looking at all the products 586 00:25:46,041 --> 00:25:48,281 Speaker 1: and just taking my sweet ass time, especially with no 587 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,201 Speaker 1: kids with kids, so just like court myself, I'm so 588 00:25:53,321 --> 00:25:55,521 Speaker 1: used to rushing and getting as much done in my 589 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,721 Speaker 1: day as I can. I was like, no, then take 590 00:25:57,801 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: my time. Yeah, even at the Place Center. Yes, they 591 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 1: took the kids at the Place Center. God, that place 592 00:26:02,441 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: is overwhelming the same breath. I was like, who cares. 593 00:26:07,521 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: Just go with it. You've got nowhere to be. There's 594 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,161 Speaker 1: no rush. They want to play over here, they want 595 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 1: to stop for a snack. Cool where was Normally I'd 596 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,721 Speaker 1: be like, hey, we've got forty five minutes, we're getting out, 597 00:26:16,721 --> 00:26:19,321 Speaker 1: We're getting this done. You know. I'm just trying to 598 00:26:19,360 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: really slow everything down. And the more I do that, 599 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,481 Speaker 1: the calm I feel, The more in tune I feel 600 00:26:24,481 --> 00:26:28,481 Speaker 1: with myself, more nurturing I am to them, and more creative. 601 00:26:28,521 --> 00:26:31,441 Speaker 1: I am so creative and hideaway now, and like even 602 00:26:31,481 --> 00:26:34,400 Speaker 1: just my content, I'm loving creating cool content that's so 603 00:26:34,481 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: authentic to me, whereas I think I was creating it before. 604 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,001 Speaker 1: With I had to think about selling a product. I 605 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 1: had to sell baselines, so I had to base my 606 00:26:42,201 --> 00:26:45,001 Speaker 1: content around my brand, and yeah, that was fun, It's 607 00:26:45,041 --> 00:26:48,481 Speaker 1: not bad. But now my content is just literally what 608 00:26:48,761 --> 00:26:52,001 Speaker 1: I'm feeling, whether it's something funny with Steve, whether it's 609 00:26:52,001 --> 00:26:54,401 Speaker 1: like cute moments with my kids. There's no pressure anymore. 610 00:26:54,801 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 1: Like what you see is exactly what I'm going through. 611 00:26:56,921 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: And this just feels so nice. Yeah, So definitely flowing 612 00:27:01,281 --> 00:27:04,001 Speaker 1: a lot more. But I can't wait to have this 613 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: conversation six months. It's time and to just yeah see 614 00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 1: where I'm at. Yeah, it's exciting. 615 00:27:10,120 --> 00:27:11,721 Speaker 3: I even feel like, you know, sometimes we talk about 616 00:27:11,761 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 3: like reflecting back on old episodes. Yeah, Like I feel like, 617 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,640 Speaker 3: especially this journey, how we're both kind of like really 618 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,961 Speaker 3: slowing down. We'll be looking back on time and be like, wow, girl, 619 00:27:20,281 --> 00:27:20,881 Speaker 3: take a chill. 620 00:27:21,441 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: But I feel like you and I even talking slower. 621 00:27:24,360 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: You go back a year ago, people used to think 622 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: we were on fast forward, Like we talk so fast 623 00:27:29,441 --> 00:27:31,721 Speaker 1: and we get excited, and I think we'll always have 624 00:27:31,801 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 1: moments like that, but I think overall runs. Yeah, you 625 00:27:37,120 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: guys will hear that we've just slowed down how we talk, 626 00:27:40,481 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: and that just feels nicer because it's Yeah, it's a 627 00:27:43,681 --> 00:27:46,961 Speaker 1: more calming energy too. Yeah. The empowered feminine. She is soft, 628 00:27:47,001 --> 00:27:52,441 Speaker 1: she's flowing, she's surrendering, she's open, she's magnetic. It's not forced, 629 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:56,041 Speaker 1: it's not structured, it's not rushing. It's the opposite of that. 630 00:27:56,681 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 1: And it's so cool to embody more of that. But 631 00:27:58,360 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: it takes practice, definitely, Yeah, do. 632 00:28:01,001 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 3: You have any advice for people navigating a similar health situation. 633 00:28:05,441 --> 00:28:07,081 Speaker 1: I've actually been asked this a lot, and a lot 634 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,801 Speaker 1: of people are going through similar and just like an 635 00:28:10,801 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: anxious wreck. They're so scared, and I get it. It 636 00:28:13,321 --> 00:28:16,561 Speaker 1: is so scary, but I don't know. It sounds so simple. 637 00:28:17,281 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: I truly just do have this inner trusting and knowing 638 00:28:19,961 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 1: that it's going to work out exactly how it's meant to. 639 00:28:22,681 --> 00:28:25,041 Speaker 1: And I think when you try and force things to 640 00:28:25,041 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: be a certain way, or you're expecting or hoping, or 641 00:28:27,481 --> 00:28:31,081 Speaker 1: like you're just manifesting, creating so much more stress, you're 642 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,481 Speaker 1: almost putting yourself through something twice, putting yourself through something 643 00:28:34,521 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 1: that isn't even your reality yet. Like I'm not going 644 00:28:37,001 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: to put myself and put my energy, put my body 645 00:28:39,241 --> 00:28:42,441 Speaker 1: through that that it might not even happen. Just trust it, 646 00:28:42,641 --> 00:28:44,761 Speaker 1: go with the flow. And yes, I'm still scared, but 647 00:28:45,321 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just really know this is my 648 00:28:48,081 --> 00:28:50,321 Speaker 1: path and I'm also really grateful for it. If I 649 00:28:50,321 --> 00:28:52,281 Speaker 1: didn't know this, it could rupture tomorrow and I might 650 00:28:52,361 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: not be here. And there's also so many people that 651 00:28:55,281 --> 00:28:57,841 Speaker 1: have so much worse off things, like I'm grateful I 652 00:28:57,841 --> 00:29:00,161 Speaker 1: get to have surgery for an hour or two, go 653 00:29:00,201 --> 00:29:02,041 Speaker 1: home after three nights, and some people on the hospital 654 00:29:02,081 --> 00:29:06,041 Speaker 1: for six months. I can do this. This isn't what 655 00:29:06,121 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: a lot of people have to go through like this 656 00:29:07,561 --> 00:29:11,201 Speaker 1: seems small in comparison. I don't know if that's healthy 657 00:29:11,281 --> 00:29:13,201 Speaker 1: or not. But I've always coped well with going through 658 00:29:13,241 --> 00:29:16,081 Speaker 1: hard at times, knowing that it could be so much worse. 659 00:29:16,681 --> 00:29:19,641 Speaker 1: It helps bring gratitude into your situation rather than going 660 00:29:19,681 --> 00:29:24,201 Speaker 1: in the spiral of victim. It really does. Yeah, yeah, Do. 661 00:29:24,121 --> 00:29:26,761 Speaker 3: You think you would still have made the decision to 662 00:29:26,801 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 3: close Baseline if you didn't have a health scare? 663 00:29:29,921 --> 00:29:39,041 Speaker 1: Oh, I've toyed on this. I don't know. I don't 664 00:29:39,081 --> 00:29:42,801 Speaker 1: think so so bad to say, isn't it. I don't 665 00:29:42,801 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: want to label it, but I think I would have 666 00:29:44,521 --> 00:29:48,081 Speaker 1: kept pushing. Like I said in that big episode, it's like, 667 00:29:48,601 --> 00:29:51,161 Speaker 1: never give up. Be tough times, but you gotta keep going. 668 00:29:51,601 --> 00:29:54,681 Speaker 1: You got responsibilities, Like you know, this is just part 669 00:29:54,681 --> 00:29:57,401 Speaker 1: of business. It's not always going to be good. Could 670 00:29:57,441 --> 00:29:59,241 Speaker 1: take the good with the bad. They're the kind of 671 00:29:59,241 --> 00:30:01,801 Speaker 1: things that I would say to myself. It would have 672 00:30:01,801 --> 00:30:03,481 Speaker 1: taken a lot to do it, and it would have 673 00:30:03,561 --> 00:30:06,841 Speaker 1: been way more. I don't know, harder and painful. I 674 00:30:06,841 --> 00:30:09,321 Speaker 1: felt like this was just the universe kind of sending 675 00:30:09,321 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: you on your path. Yeah. Yeah, like even when I 676 00:30:12,481 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: owned the gym, I kept that two years longer than 677 00:30:14,201 --> 00:30:17,321 Speaker 1: what I should have. My ego kept me there. Yeah, 678 00:30:17,361 --> 00:30:20,161 Speaker 1: but I don't know, do you reckon I would have. 679 00:30:20,201 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: I'm not sure from the outside. I wasn't enjoying it 680 00:30:22,521 --> 00:30:23,081 Speaker 1: for a while. 681 00:30:23,281 --> 00:30:27,041 Speaker 3: I think you might have eventually, but I think he 682 00:30:27,121 --> 00:30:29,801 Speaker 3: would have rain yourself to the ground before you did. 683 00:30:31,121 --> 00:30:33,601 Speaker 1: I was exhausted. You were exhausted, and I was hating 684 00:30:33,601 --> 00:30:37,081 Speaker 1: it and I felt so stark. Yeah, but I just 685 00:30:37,161 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: kept powering on. I noticed myself like just I don't know, 686 00:30:40,761 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 1: trying to numb out like I would scroll more. I 687 00:30:43,281 --> 00:30:46,361 Speaker 1: was eating more, keeping more busy because I just didn't 688 00:30:46,361 --> 00:30:48,801 Speaker 1: want to stop and think about it. I wasn't coping. 689 00:30:49,161 --> 00:30:52,281 Speaker 3: Yeah, life had your back, Life had my back, that's 690 00:30:52,281 --> 00:30:55,321 Speaker 3: for sure. It's crazy, hey, and like, it's such a 691 00:30:56,161 --> 00:31:00,321 Speaker 3: not great situation to obviously be in. But the amount 692 00:31:00,401 --> 00:31:03,521 Speaker 3: it's already transformed your life and it hasn't even happened yet. 693 00:31:03,601 --> 00:31:06,801 Speaker 3: I know, nothing actually physically changing your body. 694 00:31:06,561 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: What a gift. I know, how crazy is that. You 695 00:31:08,761 --> 00:31:10,641 Speaker 1: know what would have been really stressful is having to 696 00:31:10,681 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: go through the surgery and then come back to the 697 00:31:12,961 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: business like I just oh, I don't. I don't have 698 00:31:16,321 --> 00:31:19,121 Speaker 1: the capacity for that. I wouldn't have even been able 699 00:31:19,121 --> 00:31:20,761 Speaker 1: to rest in recover. I would have been so much 700 00:31:20,761 --> 00:31:23,641 Speaker 1: more stress this whole time. Sometimes you have to let 701 00:31:23,681 --> 00:31:26,161 Speaker 1: go of something to create the space. Something had to give, 702 00:31:26,681 --> 00:31:28,601 Speaker 1: Something had to give. I couldn't imagine going to the 703 00:31:28,641 --> 00:31:32,561 Speaker 1: surgery while still running back. No imagine either. It's a 704 00:31:32,641 --> 00:31:36,001 Speaker 1: huge business too, like to come out of that Nahn, 705 00:31:36,241 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: that would not have been nice. 706 00:31:37,681 --> 00:31:39,841 Speaker 3: And even like you said, the lead up beforehand, being 707 00:31:39,841 --> 00:31:43,161 Speaker 3: in that sort of mental state and having nowhere near 708 00:31:43,241 --> 00:31:45,241 Speaker 3: the amount of calm energy that you have right now. 709 00:31:45,081 --> 00:31:47,321 Speaker 1: I would have been so anxious. I reckon that'd be 710 00:31:47,361 --> 00:31:49,641 Speaker 1: a completely different energy. That's been the gift in it. 711 00:31:49,761 --> 00:31:53,281 Speaker 3: Hey, yeah, will you continue to do the ultimate girl's 712 00:31:53,361 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 3: day out or will you take a step back from that? 713 00:31:55,881 --> 00:31:59,281 Speaker 1: Definitely continue to do those. We love them, and anyone 714 00:31:59,281 --> 00:32:01,081 Speaker 1: that's been you would see that. Like Levi and I 715 00:32:01,121 --> 00:32:02,841 Speaker 1: are such a good team. But he is the masculine, 716 00:32:02,881 --> 00:32:05,321 Speaker 1: I'm the feminine. He leads, Yeah, he really does run 717 00:32:05,401 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: a lot of that day. I'm there for all of it, 718 00:32:07,561 --> 00:32:10,121 Speaker 1: but he's more like the leader in it. I'm more 719 00:32:10,201 --> 00:32:12,321 Speaker 1: the nurturer. I'm the one that goes around and like 720 00:32:12,361 --> 00:32:14,361 Speaker 1: talks to all the girls and holds them and cuddles them, 721 00:32:14,401 --> 00:32:17,161 Speaker 1: and like I'm that person for them on that day, 722 00:32:17,401 --> 00:32:19,481 Speaker 1: which is just so beautiful. Lights me up. Like those 723 00:32:19,521 --> 00:32:22,561 Speaker 1: days literally are seventeen hour days for us. By the 724 00:32:22,601 --> 00:32:25,041 Speaker 1: time we get up, go and set up, by the 725 00:32:25,041 --> 00:32:26,921 Speaker 1: time the girls go home and we pack it all down, 726 00:32:26,961 --> 00:32:30,721 Speaker 1: it's a seventeen hour day on our feet, energy out 727 00:32:31,041 --> 00:32:33,121 Speaker 1: and I go home and I'm full of beans. Yeah, 728 00:32:33,361 --> 00:32:36,441 Speaker 1: that's how you know what you're doing. Your love is right, 729 00:32:36,561 --> 00:32:40,481 Speaker 1: so aligned, so well aligned. And the contrast of that 730 00:32:40,521 --> 00:32:42,721 Speaker 1: to baseline once again, it was like, this is not 731 00:32:43,321 --> 00:32:45,681 Speaker 1: serving me anymore. Does not light me up with something 732 00:32:45,721 --> 00:32:48,441 Speaker 1: like this. I'm like, oh, same with this. I don't 733 00:32:48,441 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: know if you've noticed, but when we have guests on 734 00:32:50,561 --> 00:32:52,761 Speaker 1: or people ask like how many episodes we do and 735 00:32:52,801 --> 00:32:54,161 Speaker 1: we're like, oh, we do, you know, six on the 736 00:32:54,161 --> 00:32:56,761 Speaker 1: Thursday and on the Friday, Oh my god, Like do 737 00:32:56,841 --> 00:32:59,841 Speaker 1: you that many? Yeah? And I look at them like yeah, 738 00:32:59,881 --> 00:33:03,121 Speaker 1: but we're just chatting we're two best friends. We have conversation. 739 00:33:04,201 --> 00:33:06,801 Speaker 1: It's beautiful, such a beautiful It is not training. If 740 00:33:06,801 --> 00:33:08,401 Speaker 1: it was training, we would not we wouldn't be still 741 00:33:08,401 --> 00:33:08,561 Speaker 1: doing it. 742 00:33:08,681 --> 00:33:10,641 Speaker 3: It wouldn't be able to do that many of its training. 743 00:33:10,841 --> 00:33:12,601 Speaker 1: Yeah, no way worries. When I used to run my 744 00:33:12,641 --> 00:33:16,281 Speaker 1: own podcast and do one guest by myself, I was wiped. Yeah, 745 00:33:16,561 --> 00:33:19,081 Speaker 1: so drained from like setting up the podcast and like 746 00:33:19,121 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: making sure the sounds all good to the Nah no 747 00:33:23,281 --> 00:33:26,481 Speaker 1: wonder only did like twenty something episodes. I just hated it. Yeah, 748 00:33:26,761 --> 00:33:28,721 Speaker 1: and that's when when I came to you, like, see 749 00:33:28,721 --> 00:33:30,321 Speaker 1: if you want to do this podcast with me, I 750 00:33:30,361 --> 00:33:32,801 Speaker 1: was like, I don't want to do any of the logistics, 751 00:33:32,801 --> 00:33:36,961 Speaker 1: Like that takes away all the fun, all the good energy, 752 00:33:37,121 --> 00:33:40,521 Speaker 1: all the creativity. It just wipes it from me. But yeah, 753 00:33:40,521 --> 00:33:42,761 Speaker 1: the Ultimate Girl's day Out, like I just love them. 754 00:33:42,801 --> 00:33:45,161 Speaker 1: We actually want to do some different style retreats next year, 755 00:33:45,361 --> 00:33:48,161 Speaker 1: some that involve the kids as well, So we've got 756 00:33:48,201 --> 00:33:51,161 Speaker 1: some cool ideas. But the Ultimate Girl's Day Out will 757 00:33:51,161 --> 00:33:53,001 Speaker 1: be staying live. I wants to change the name though, 758 00:33:53,161 --> 00:33:56,081 Speaker 1: Oh really, yeah, I don't know. He just doesn't like 759 00:33:56,121 --> 00:33:58,801 Speaker 1: the name The Ultimate Girl's Day out. I think it 760 00:33:58,881 --> 00:34:01,521 Speaker 1: just encompasses everything that it is and it is the 761 00:34:01,761 --> 00:34:05,601 Speaker 1: ultimate so much girls day out, Like yeah, and I 762 00:34:05,641 --> 00:34:07,121 Speaker 1: was like, I'm open to it, but I don't know 763 00:34:07,121 --> 00:34:07,721 Speaker 1: what he'd call it. 764 00:34:07,721 --> 00:34:10,601 Speaker 3: It'd be interested to see what he changes it. I 765 00:34:10,681 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 3: know a name that embodies it all. 766 00:34:13,121 --> 00:34:16,361 Speaker 1: I would also love to work with some more men. 767 00:34:16,761 --> 00:34:20,401 Speaker 1: I think men need some more healthy, soft feminine energy, 768 00:34:20,921 --> 00:34:23,041 Speaker 1: and I would love to be holding space for men 769 00:34:23,121 --> 00:34:25,441 Speaker 1: as they go through a transformative day like the ultimate 770 00:34:25,441 --> 00:34:27,361 Speaker 1: girl's day out. Yes, I don't know how that looks 771 00:34:27,441 --> 00:34:29,281 Speaker 1: right now. I just sent ly by a bunch of 772 00:34:29,361 --> 00:34:30,761 Speaker 1: waste messages one day and I was like, I don't 773 00:34:30,801 --> 00:34:33,241 Speaker 1: know how this looks and feels to you, but I'm 774 00:34:33,281 --> 00:34:35,681 Speaker 1: feeling this pool of wanting to work and hold space 775 00:34:35,681 --> 00:34:38,081 Speaker 1: for men out. I don't know what it is. I 776 00:34:38,161 --> 00:34:43,641 Speaker 1: just really love me more now. Men need more support. 777 00:34:43,641 --> 00:34:45,721 Speaker 1: The more support they can get, you know. Yeah, And 778 00:34:45,761 --> 00:34:48,921 Speaker 1: it's healthy for us to be around healthy masculine but 779 00:34:48,961 --> 00:34:51,361 Speaker 1: it's also really beautiful for them to be around soft 780 00:34:51,361 --> 00:34:53,801 Speaker 1: feminine because that's when they open up, when they release 781 00:34:53,841 --> 00:34:56,521 Speaker 1: and may be vulnerable. I just think that's so beautiful. 782 00:34:56,561 --> 00:34:57,921 Speaker 1: So I don't know what we'll do with it. But 783 00:34:57,961 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: I just said, I'm just throwing this out to you. 784 00:34:59,921 --> 00:35:01,241 Speaker 1: Let's have a day where we get out of white 785 00:35:01,241 --> 00:35:04,441 Speaker 1: butt and explore different options. So yeah, I definitely want 786 00:35:04,441 --> 00:35:06,521 Speaker 1: to lean more into do more retreats. That's so cool. 787 00:35:06,601 --> 00:35:08,721 Speaker 3: Yeah, exciting and yeah, just doing all the things that 788 00:35:08,841 --> 00:35:11,841 Speaker 3: feel right. Yes, well aligned, light you up, aren't. 789 00:35:11,721 --> 00:35:14,361 Speaker 1: Raining of your energy, they're boosting that energy. And it's 790 00:35:14,401 --> 00:35:16,881 Speaker 1: like when you close one door, you open up. I 791 00:35:16,921 --> 00:35:18,041 Speaker 1: feel like five more. 792 00:35:18,521 --> 00:35:20,721 Speaker 3: Especially wanted to spass so much, Yeah, taking out so 793 00:35:20,801 --> 00:35:21,161 Speaker 3: much peper. 794 00:35:21,281 --> 00:35:23,121 Speaker 1: Yeah. So, like as I said to Leve, I like, 795 00:35:23,121 --> 00:35:25,761 Speaker 1: I'm not attached to anything, like whatever is meant to 796 00:35:25,761 --> 00:35:27,761 Speaker 1: come fa us and I'm open to any ideas. If 797 00:35:27,801 --> 00:35:32,441 Speaker 1: it feels right, let's lean in. If it doesn't feel right, yeah, yeah, 798 00:35:32,481 --> 00:35:34,961 Speaker 1: So Ultimate Girl's out and next one is August eleventh 799 00:35:35,001 --> 00:35:37,321 Speaker 1: in Brisbane. So's steal some tickets to that. If you 800 00:35:37,361 --> 00:35:39,081 Speaker 1: want to come along, leave the link in the show 801 00:35:39,121 --> 00:35:41,001 Speaker 1: notes below. But yeah, I'm excited for that. 802 00:35:41,161 --> 00:35:42,801 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's honestly such an incredible day. 803 00:35:42,881 --> 00:35:43,921 Speaker 1: Yeah. 804 00:35:44,241 --> 00:35:47,561 Speaker 3: Curious whether anything from the baseline closure episode sat with 805 00:35:47,641 --> 00:35:51,521 Speaker 3: Kiara and will she implement anything similar or she ever 806 00:35:51,561 --> 00:35:55,601 Speaker 3: considered a similar path around closing Love Ellis Rose. Well, 807 00:35:55,841 --> 00:35:58,961 Speaker 3: I feel like you've probably noticed over the last three years, 808 00:35:59,041 --> 00:36:00,601 Speaker 3: I've drastically changed the. 809 00:36:00,601 --> 00:36:02,441 Speaker 1: Way that I've actually done stuff with Love Ellis Row 810 00:36:02,601 --> 00:36:03,081 Speaker 1: so much. 811 00:36:03,161 --> 00:36:06,521 Speaker 3: We I gave so much of my time and my 812 00:36:06,681 --> 00:36:10,041 Speaker 3: effort and my energy into Love Ellis Rose. And really, 813 00:36:10,081 --> 00:36:12,601 Speaker 3: as soon as I started on my healing journey, probably 814 00:36:12,641 --> 00:36:14,801 Speaker 3: two years ago, it made me kind of realize what 815 00:36:14,961 --> 00:36:17,721 Speaker 3: was important, and I've changed everything drastically. We used to 816 00:36:17,721 --> 00:36:19,281 Speaker 3: have a shop that we ran. I was in there 817 00:36:19,361 --> 00:36:22,481 Speaker 3: every single day. I did huge days. Kurt and I 818 00:36:22,481 --> 00:36:25,921 Speaker 3: were up most nights, like with suppliers, had a whole 819 00:36:25,961 --> 00:36:28,201 Speaker 3: garage full of stock, plus a shop full of stock, 820 00:36:28,561 --> 00:36:31,481 Speaker 3: and it was great. It was fulfilling, it was amazing. 821 00:36:31,561 --> 00:36:34,841 Speaker 3: But when I started to do this work, I realized that, 822 00:36:35,041 --> 00:36:38,281 Speaker 3: you know, I can't be working that hard and that 823 00:36:38,441 --> 00:36:41,361 Speaker 3: much and also work on myself at the same time. 824 00:36:41,401 --> 00:36:42,001 Speaker 1: I just couldn't. 825 00:36:42,481 --> 00:36:45,241 Speaker 3: So over the years, I've drastically pulled back on what 826 00:36:45,281 --> 00:36:47,281 Speaker 3: I've done with Love Els Rose, and now it's not 827 00:36:47,321 --> 00:36:48,041 Speaker 3: a burden at all. 828 00:36:48,441 --> 00:36:49,081 Speaker 1: I love it. 829 00:36:49,081 --> 00:36:51,601 Speaker 3: It feels beautiful, it feels so well aligned. I just 830 00:36:51,681 --> 00:36:53,961 Speaker 3: get to pick what stock that I like Kurtie and 831 00:36:53,961 --> 00:36:57,761 Speaker 3: I shoot the photos. It's really flowy and really easy, 832 00:36:57,921 --> 00:37:00,241 Speaker 3: and it feels really beautiful right now in this season. 833 00:37:00,401 --> 00:37:03,081 Speaker 3: Kurt loves it. He loves every aspect of it. It's 834 00:37:03,081 --> 00:37:05,761 Speaker 3: so funny. He loves photography. Yeah, he loves like doing 835 00:37:05,761 --> 00:37:07,081 Speaker 3: all the website. 836 00:37:06,601 --> 00:37:08,881 Speaker 1: The like, Yeah, all the bits and pieces. I love 837 00:37:08,881 --> 00:37:11,001 Speaker 1: this about your business because not many business like I 838 00:37:11,041 --> 00:37:13,201 Speaker 1: did not have that in baseline. But if you want 839 00:37:13,201 --> 00:37:14,841 Speaker 1: it to be busier, you can order more stock. And 840 00:37:14,881 --> 00:37:16,241 Speaker 1: if you want it to be quiet, you don't order 841 00:37:16,281 --> 00:37:18,161 Speaker 1: as much. You'll take it easy, like you literally have 842 00:37:18,241 --> 00:37:20,521 Speaker 1: full control week to week on what you do. It's 843 00:37:20,601 --> 00:37:21,521 Speaker 1: even fucking cool. 844 00:37:21,641 --> 00:37:23,481 Speaker 3: Yeah, even some weeks we won't even order stock. I'll 845 00:37:23,521 --> 00:37:24,881 Speaker 3: be like, oh, let's just like, you know, if we 846 00:37:24,921 --> 00:37:27,321 Speaker 3: had a you know, big sale or something okay for 847 00:37:27,361 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 3: the next week or two, like we've just been working 848 00:37:29,041 --> 00:37:30,601 Speaker 3: off our feet, let's take a step back. Kids are 849 00:37:30,601 --> 00:37:33,081 Speaker 3: on holidays, let's not order any new stock. So yeah, 850 00:37:33,121 --> 00:37:36,081 Speaker 3: it's in a really good flexible spot right now. And 851 00:37:36,121 --> 00:37:38,601 Speaker 3: I think, like Kurt and I go back and forth like, oh, 852 00:37:38,601 --> 00:37:40,721 Speaker 3: it was so like nice, And especially Kurt, I think 853 00:37:40,721 --> 00:37:43,201 Speaker 3: he's driven to do a little bit more with it, 854 00:37:43,641 --> 00:37:46,881 Speaker 3: which I think he will probably lean back into, especially 855 00:37:46,921 --> 00:37:49,081 Speaker 3: as the kids get a little bit older. But yeah, 856 00:37:49,081 --> 00:37:52,561 Speaker 3: it feels really nice right now. There's no stress with it. 857 00:37:52,561 --> 00:37:56,321 Speaker 3: It's beautiful, it's well aligned, and yeah, I think it's honestly, 858 00:37:56,361 --> 00:37:57,881 Speaker 3: it's just not a burden at all. Like it's not 859 00:37:58,001 --> 00:37:59,921 Speaker 3: something where I'm like, oh my gosh, this is stressing me. 860 00:38:00,481 --> 00:38:02,041 Speaker 3: I feel like, if anything, I go back and forth 861 00:38:02,041 --> 00:38:04,081 Speaker 3: with YouTube, it takes up a lot of my time. 862 00:38:04,321 --> 00:38:06,361 Speaker 3: Like what it always COMESU do for me is like, Okay, 863 00:38:06,641 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 3: how much time does it take out of my week? 864 00:38:09,001 --> 00:38:11,721 Speaker 3: Which for you baseline was huge as well. How does 865 00:38:11,761 --> 00:38:14,401 Speaker 3: my energy feel afterwards? And I love filming when I've 866 00:38:14,401 --> 00:38:17,561 Speaker 3: got the energy and the capacity. I don't love editing anymore. 867 00:38:17,961 --> 00:38:20,921 Speaker 3: I'm not learning like I've been doing editing now. Honestly, 868 00:38:20,921 --> 00:38:22,801 Speaker 3: for like eight years before I were on YouTube, I 869 00:38:22,881 --> 00:38:24,441 Speaker 3: used to do it for people. So I feel like 870 00:38:24,841 --> 00:38:26,721 Speaker 3: I've learned as much as I want to learn. And 871 00:38:26,761 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 3: now that I'm learning so much more about like self 872 00:38:28,481 --> 00:38:30,841 Speaker 3: development all these other things, it's more aligned with me. 873 00:38:31,001 --> 00:38:33,201 Speaker 3: So I'm not getting the same fulfillment out of it 874 00:38:33,241 --> 00:38:35,161 Speaker 3: as I was. So I think eventually I'll just upload 875 00:38:35,161 --> 00:38:36,081 Speaker 3: a youtubedeo when I want. 876 00:38:35,961 --> 00:38:36,481 Speaker 1: To upload it. 877 00:38:36,641 --> 00:38:40,521 Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, no, I think otherwise. I feel really 878 00:38:40,601 --> 00:38:42,801 Speaker 3: good right now with where I'm at and what I'm doing, 879 00:38:42,961 --> 00:38:44,881 Speaker 3: and I feel really lucky that I can kind of 880 00:38:44,921 --> 00:38:46,681 Speaker 3: you know, ebb and flo out of what feels good 881 00:38:46,761 --> 00:38:48,961 Speaker 3: overall compared to how it was like three years ago. 882 00:38:49,041 --> 00:38:51,521 Speaker 1: Holy shit, Like I look back, I Curt now up 883 00:38:51,561 --> 00:38:53,041 Speaker 1: to midnight doing stuff. 884 00:38:53,081 --> 00:38:55,801 Speaker 3: We were like, yeah, it was crazy and like, yeah, 885 00:38:55,801 --> 00:38:58,041 Speaker 3: we were making a lot of money, but sometimes it's. 886 00:38:57,881 --> 00:39:02,361 Speaker 1: Like is it worth at what cost? What cost? Yeah? 887 00:39:02,441 --> 00:39:04,441 Speaker 3: Yeah, and like even time for us to have quality 888 00:39:04,481 --> 00:39:06,281 Speaker 3: time together and that like there was just no room 889 00:39:06,321 --> 00:39:08,801 Speaker 3: for that. And now I feel like the balance is 890 00:39:08,881 --> 00:39:09,881 Speaker 3: so much nicer. 891 00:39:10,241 --> 00:39:12,601 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's such a cool thing for you to talk 892 00:39:12,641 --> 00:39:15,041 Speaker 1: about the money, because I think most people were like 893 00:39:15,081 --> 00:39:16,081 Speaker 1: why would you not earn more? 894 00:39:16,401 --> 00:39:16,601 Speaker 3: Yeah? 895 00:39:16,601 --> 00:39:18,481 Speaker 1: And even like I've had it so much, like are 896 00:39:18,521 --> 00:39:20,641 Speaker 1: you gonna sell Baseligne? Or like how can you just 897 00:39:20,641 --> 00:39:22,561 Speaker 1: close it down? Like when that makes money that I'm like, 898 00:39:22,641 --> 00:39:25,521 Speaker 1: at what costs? Though? What's more important? And just because 899 00:39:25,521 --> 00:39:27,361 Speaker 1: I stopped making money in that business, does it not 900 00:39:27,401 --> 00:39:28,721 Speaker 1: mean that I can make money elsewhere? 901 00:39:28,881 --> 00:39:29,161 Speaker 3: Yeah? 902 00:39:29,241 --> 00:39:31,321 Speaker 1: I've got my toes and other things, and I enjoy 903 00:39:31,401 --> 00:39:33,121 Speaker 1: making money over here, and maybe I'll have more space 904 00:39:33,121 --> 00:39:35,081 Speaker 1: to make more money over there, but that's not my 905 00:39:35,201 --> 00:39:39,041 Speaker 1: driving force to keep your business because of money, No away. Yeah, 906 00:39:39,081 --> 00:39:40,201 Speaker 1: and yeah, love Elis rose. 907 00:39:40,241 --> 00:39:43,401 Speaker 3: For a long time, it was everything, like I had 908 00:39:43,401 --> 00:39:45,761 Speaker 3: to give it so much of my attention every single day, 909 00:39:45,761 --> 00:39:47,721 Speaker 3: those constantly things that we had going on. 910 00:39:47,801 --> 00:39:50,761 Speaker 1: And yeah, more staff too. We had so much at 911 00:39:50,761 --> 00:39:51,281 Speaker 1: one point. 912 00:39:51,561 --> 00:39:53,121 Speaker 3: Yeah, we had a lot going on. So we had 913 00:39:53,161 --> 00:39:55,121 Speaker 3: like a designer, We had all this stuff overseas, like 914 00:39:55,121 --> 00:39:56,041 Speaker 3: we were doing the whole. 915 00:39:57,041 --> 00:39:57,881 Speaker 1: Like I don't know how. 916 00:39:57,721 --> 00:40:02,641 Speaker 3: You did what you did for so long, because yeah, 917 00:40:02,641 --> 00:40:04,241 Speaker 3: we only did that for quite a short period of time. 918 00:40:04,241 --> 00:40:05,841 Speaker 3: And pretty quickly I was like, well I think too, 919 00:40:05,881 --> 00:40:07,521 Speaker 3: because I went through all of my shit life. 920 00:40:07,361 --> 00:40:08,041 Speaker 1: Pushed it again. 921 00:40:08,121 --> 00:40:11,201 Speaker 3: It was like, no, girlfriend, doesn't feel good?

And then also just doing little online 930 00:40:33,561 --> 00:40:35,721 Speaker 3: workbooks and I eventually do courses as well. 931 00:40:35,921 --> 00:40:39,401 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so cool.

Now? 944 00:41:12,121 --> 00:41:14,121 Speaker 3: I remember there were hints about a new product in 945 00:41:14,161 --> 00:41:14,641 Speaker 3: the works. 946 00:41:14,681 --> 00:41:17,881 Speaker 1: Any update?

Yeah, this 948 00:41:23,481 --> 00:41:26,481 Speaker 1: one's really cool because we've never seen anyone else do it. Like, 949 00:41:26,521 --> 00:41:29,001 Speaker 1: even when we looked online, we could not find something 950 00:41:29,161 --> 00:41:31,681 Speaker 1: like this. I reckon this one probably took us the 951 00:41:31,721 --> 00:41:34,361 Speaker 1: longest to create. She did I'm really excited to do 952 00:41:34,401 --> 00:41:36,721 Speaker 1: it myself. I know me too. Yeah, we won't give 953 00:41:36,721 --> 00:41:38,401 Speaker 1: any hints away. I fore, let me do some fun 954 00:41:38,401 --> 00:41:41,201 Speaker 1: cool clues we do, but this one's really cool, and 955 00:41:41,201 --> 00:41:44,201 Speaker 1: then we've got two more after that. There's definitely lots 956 00:41:44,241 --> 00:41:46,401 Speaker 1: out there, but this is our own style and twist 957 00:41:46,401 --> 00:41:48,201 Speaker 1: on it. Yeah, and it's going to be really beautiful 958 00:41:48,241 --> 00:41:51,161 Speaker 1: as well. So yeah, three more coming out.
