Today we're 11 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 1: like a wholesome, cutesy little wounts and episode because we 12 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: have been inspired by the things I would tell my 13 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: younger self in a coffee shop when I met her. 14 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: You know, it was like I met my fifteen year 15 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,559 Speaker 1: old self for a coffee and she was five minutes 16 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: early and I was ten minutes late and all that stuff. 17 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: The most relatable one I've seen is I was meeting 18 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: my younger self for a coffee today. She texted me 19 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: asking if we could cancel. I was relieved.

When these trends 25 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: take off, you don't really know where they began. But 26 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: I thought we do a little shout out to the og. 27 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: I love Grato because I did see a piece of 28 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: content from her where she said she obviously loved seeing 29 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: so many people, you know, taking her palm and making 30 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: it their own, but she had to admit she was 31 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: a little bit sad that, you know, her work wasn't credited, 32 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: So good jobs out. Okay, my obsession of the week 33 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: is actually the Paulish Choice Pro Collagen peptid pumping moist 34 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: straiser that we have both been using for the last 35 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: couple of weeks months and looking DOWNI yeah, because as 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: some of you chickies may have seen on Instagram, we 37 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: recently worked with Paula's Choice on the launch of the moisturizer. 38 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: We hosted their event. 39 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we hosted the House of Pep event that 40 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: they did for Valentine's Day, and we. 41 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 4: Did like a little mini live show. 42 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 2: There was a pilates class, facials Sephora touch Up.

And I do 56 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: find that it instantly plumps and gives your skin a 57 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 2: bit of bounce, which I love. I use it for 58 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: amm PM, but I do love it especially in the 59 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 2: morning because it sits really beautifully under makeup, agreed, which 60 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: is also important for a moisturizer.

Don't 515 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: fuck your neighbors. Yeah, and don't fuck people you work 516 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: with because you can't escape them. 517 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 4: Especially your home, Like that's to be your sanctuary. 518 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the neighbor that I date dated, Oh, 519 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: I've done it twice. I did it. 520 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 3: I did it when I was younger. 521 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean I've accidentally dated two neighbors in 522 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: my lifetime. Yeah, and like none were as intense as 523 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: what I think this relationship was. Like the one of 524 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: them was like three dates and you know they still 525 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: live in the building. Yeah, and it's just like a 526 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: head nod and doses, you know, I think in this 527 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: situation it was it sounds like it was a lot 528 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 1: more intense and there was a lot more feelings involved, 529 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: and that would be so hard that. I know this 530 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: probably is maybe a bit radical, but my first thing 531 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: would be like. 532 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 4: Can I move? Yeah? 533 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 3: Same, I was thinking. 534 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, that's probably really drastic advice, and it's 535 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 1: probably not helpful because maybe she doesn't want to move, 536 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 1: or maybe or maybe she owns a house. But my 537 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: first question to myself if I was in that situation 538 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: would be can I move? 539 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 3: Is there any way that I can not be in 540 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 3: this position? 541 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 2: How can you remove yourself from the situation if it's possible? 542 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 2: I think if it isn't possible. 543 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 3: Which I think is very likely, yea. 544 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:38,719 Speaker 2: Given that she's running in for advice, remind yourself that 545 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 2: you don't want to be in that relationship. 546 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 4: I think, take off the rose colored glasses, and rather. 547 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 2: Than comparing yourself to his new girlfriend, which I think 548 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 2: is very natural to do, think about that. You don't 549 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 2: want friends who are going to abandon you when you 550 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 2: go through a breakup when you probably need them the most. 551 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: You don't want in laws who aren't welcoming and you 552 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 2: don't get along with. You don't want a partner that 553 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 2: clearly there wasn't any longevity in the relationship beyond what 554 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,719 Speaker 2: you had. It's really hard not to compare yourself and 555 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 2: dwell and be like, oh my god, especially when it's. 556 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: Right in because you're probably sitting there being like that 557 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: used to be meet like I used to be at 558 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,959 Speaker 1: those pool parties I used to get to go. But 559 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: try to remind yourself and because you get rose colored 560 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: glasses on when you go through a breakup, try to 561 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: remember all the shit times. I know that sounds so nag, 562 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: but you just you think like, oh no, that looks 563 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: like so much fun, and I want to know you 564 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: don't you don't want to go there, like try to 565 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: think about the reasons why, because you broke up with 566 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,479 Speaker 1: him and you didn't do that for no reason. And 567 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: think about the fact that you are going to meet 568 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: someone that you know. You are going to have friends 569 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: that are there for you during really hard times. You 570 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: are going to meet a partner that gives you the love, 571 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: attention and care that you deserve, and they're gonna have 572 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: parents that you know are very open and welcoming and 573 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: warm to you. And that's what you want and that's 574 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: what you deserve, and that it's actually a blessing that 575 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 1: you now have the freedom in the space to pursue 576 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 1: those things that you want. 577 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it will also get easier with time. Let's go 578 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: feel relatively. 579 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: Fresh, put a pin in the pool, floaties under the 580 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: cover of darkness. 581 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 3: We'll jump the fence. 582 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: Let's fight in the corner of your floating and reel 583 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: it small and they'll be like, why don't they keep 584 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: going down? We'll go kill the giants worn floating. That's 585 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: another thing I spent money on that I shouldn't. 586 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 3: Have dum the giant floaty phase with like unicorns and shit. 587 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 4: Yep, I do. 588 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's bad. 589 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 4: I do.
