1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: Here I am at the double wards hemorrhaging, being rushed

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: to the hospital. Picture of what you call black excellence.

3
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: I'm now happily married, thirty years old. For four years now.

4
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: Went to the gyn and the doctors like you have

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: the word that changed my life. Fibroids that precipitated my

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: million dollar baby journey. Fourteen years battling fibroids, ten years

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: of infertility, this fifteen surgeries altogether, five IVF cycles. What

8
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: I didn't know was that every time I was pumping

9
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: my body with the hormones, it was causing the fibroids

10
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 1: to grow again. Finally, after the fifth IVF cycle, I

11
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: conceive and at twenty one weeks, the doctor says, missus Thompson,

12
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: the baby isn't growing the way it should. This is

13
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: ten years in and he said you might want to

14
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: consider terminating the pregnancy. And I said.

15
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 2: Why.

16
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: He says, because your womb is going to become a

17
00:00:54,680 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: hostile environment. I said, sir, I believe in miracles. I'm

18
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 1: not giving up on this way. At thirty weeks, the

19
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: doctor says to me, I just want to apologize. We

20
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: weren't trying to scare you. We have never seen this

21
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: before this baby was not supposed to make him and

22
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: I said to him, I said, it's okay. I didn't

23
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: expect you to know.

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 3: My God, come on, I expect what he was doing.

25
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: And my baby was born and she's amazing. I always

26
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: say that when I birthed her, she birthed me. So

27
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: she says she's the co founder of my company. I

28
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: went from being an activist to a founder. I started

29
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 1: my own holistic health company called detox Now and really

30
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: started focusing on what's driving these things.

31
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to take a moment to say this

32
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 3: because fibroids actually helped me know that this is my husband. Please,

33
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 3: So a quick, really personal, intimate story.

34
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 4: What started as a search friend is ending became a

35
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 4: journey of transformation. Every letter that I wrote led me

36
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 4: to this day.

37
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,240

Speaker 2: of my soul at the very thought of you.

43

45

Speaker 4: of growth, healing, and becoming the man I needed to be.

46
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 2: And you are the reward, the blessing given after endurance,

47
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 2: the gift promised to those who refuse to faint.

48
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:55,079

Speaker 4: And how long were you all platonic friends before some

160
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 4: romantic started brewing?

161
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: So we met in ninety four, we got engaged in

162
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: ninety six, so and we'll got married in ninety eight.

163
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 6: So what changed in those two years.

164
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: In it was a we were actually going to the

165
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: same church and we didn't know it because we were

166
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: going to different services. Okay, what city, New York, New York.

167
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: So we started again this friendship because he was at

168
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: the time. It's funny, it was he was representing somebody

169
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: in Chris. He was a talent manager. She should never

170
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 1: should have been. That's not his job. He could never be.

171
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: But he was representing someone because it's just he doesn't

172
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: have the gift. I went to school for music business,

173
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: so I know, I love God totally turned things around.

174
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 1: Wait till you hear how he really turned around. But anyway,

175
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: so we started becoming friends because I needed to connect

176
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: someone the person he was working with for somebody who

177
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: needed an event. And but then I started learning that

178
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: he was reading the people I was reading, like Miles Monroe.

179
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: Like oh, first of all, that was like, oh you

180
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 1: for real.

181
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 4: For real?

182
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: Like you ain't like I'm just going to church Christian

183
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: You reading Miles Monroe. You're listening to his tapes and teaching.

184
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 5: Okay, by the way, he's from.

185
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: Nassau, Nasa aw Bahamas.

186
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 4: That's my that's my happy place. So said I'm taking

187
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 4: I'm taking nas.

188
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: God lives to the world. Yes, So then what happened

189
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: is I was in church one day and the service

190
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 1: was around the teaching was around who are the people

191
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: that you trust? Right? And I remember at that time

192
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: the only man that I could say that I trusted

193
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: that was single was him. Oh wow. And and guess

194
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: what the Lord said, hmmm, you know what I mean.

195
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: It was like, he's the only single man.

196
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 6: It is so interested that I can trust.

197
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 1: And that's when things that, well, he's a good man.

198
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 6: He's a good man, Savannah.

199
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: You know what I mean?

200
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, I do, I do.

201
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 9: I do know what you meant?

202
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,439
Speaker 5: I know, you need to be updated.

203
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 6: We got you. We were friends. We were friends, but

204
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 6: I trusted him, Yeah, yeah, I.

205
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 4: Was for a year in like four months, and then

206
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 4: that's when things started shifting. And actually last at the

207
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 4: time that this up sold to probably drop it might

208
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 4: be on the anniversary because it was March that eighteenth

209
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 4: was when we went on our first date.

210
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 5: Wow, you know.

211
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 4: And that's after being France for a year and four month,

212
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 4: and so that's what happened, and we were just patonic friends.

213
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 4: And then around February. In the February, I was like,

214
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 4: I got to see if there's more to this. Yeah,

215
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 4: you know, I want to take you on the date

216
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 4: and yeah, and schedule a date to go fly out

217
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 4: to la and take her out on March eighteenth.

218
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,319
Speaker 1: And see, the thing is you had that that foundation

219
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: exactly that you know what, I wasn't trying to the

220
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: Other thing is he was initially he was dating somebody,

221
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: so I felt like he wasn't trying to get with Yeah.

222
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, this is real friendship. Yeah, you

223
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: know exactly, And that's really what laid the groundwork. And

224
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: then God just you know, it was like, yeah.

225
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 3: So was it like a moment or what was that? Like,

226
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 3: how did God speak to you?

227
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: It was definitely not. It was a journey. And I

228
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 1: think that everybody's different. Like he'll tell me he told me.

229
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: I was walking out of the car and the Lord

230
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: was like, that's the one. I was like, okay, I

231
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: didn't know that. He didn't tell me at the moment.

232
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 1: Thank God. I've been like side okay, well, because you know,

233
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who do that. And he's

234
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: not the kind of person who just says God told me, right,

235
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: because he feels like a lot of people manipulate people

236
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: that way, right, And he's gonna say, you know what,

237
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: out of my wisdom and everything that I have to

238
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: make a good decision. This is what I'm recommending, and

239
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: this is what I see. Now. If the Lord says something,

240
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: I'll say it. So you know, if he says that,

241
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: it is very rare very because people be handed it out, like.

242
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 5: Would you still look at him?

243
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: Well, but I didn't know that about him then, like

244
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 1: that that that developed, that knowing that about him that

245
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: developed all the time. I mean, but it's like because initially,

246
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: again it wasn't like he wasn't walked in. It was

247
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: like Denzel, like that's him, you know what I mean.

248
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: It was like, oh, we're friends. Yeah, because that so

249
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: that was the thing. And we had gotten talking about

250
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: how well a real relationship that has the ability to

251
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: sustained a longevity is friendship with attraction. That's the way

252
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 1: we defined it. But I never saw him as a

253
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: friendship with attraction. I was like, your friend, you're in

254
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: a friend zone. And then my sister was like, you

255
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 1: talk about him a lot, you show you all like, nah,

256
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: we're just good friends. He got I felt safe, you

257
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: got a girlfriend.

258
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 4: I'm good.

259
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: And I had had previous relationship with this guy. He

260
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,079
Speaker 1: would go to church with me, just because he was

261
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: trying to be around me. I was like, I had

262
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 1: made this vow to God. I was like, Lord, I

263
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: don't want nobody who's not chasing after you. I had

264
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: just made this vow, right, that's good, And I didn't,

265
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: And it was very distinctive. Not somebody goes to church,

266
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: not somebody who dons the title Christian, somebody who is

267
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: hungering after you and hungering to be like Christ to

268
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,839
Speaker 1: row into the character, right, because that's two different things. Yeah,

269
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: absolutely two different things.

270
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 4: And co how old were you during this time thinking

271
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 4: like that?

272
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: Twenty Let's see, so I met him. I was in

273
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: ninety four, Okay, we got married. I was twenty six,

274
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: so it's like twenty two years old. Twenty one.

275
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 4: You were saying you wanted somebody that was chasing after God.

276
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: But I was very passionate about the Lord myself, and

277
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: I knew at that point. I just knew that, you

278
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: know what life is. My life is found in Him,

279
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: and I know I want somebody who who loves Him

280
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: like I do.

281
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 5: Were you raising church?

282
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: Yeah? I was raised in church. But also I've found

283
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people who raised in church. That don't

284
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: mean nothing right. Yeah, it's important to understand that. I

285
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 1: think the biggest thing my mother really showed me a

286
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: relationship with God house not just my mom and my family.

287
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: God was a part of the family. He was a

288
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: member of the family. He was the one holding us

289
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: all together. And that's what made it different for me.

290
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: It wasn't just about religion. It really was about relationship.

291
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 5: So you always desired marriage, even at a young age.

292
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: That's a good question. I don't think anybody's ever asked

293
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: me that. I think eventually, Yes, I wasn't one of

294
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: those I can't wait to go down the aisle, you know.

295
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: But I know I wanted a god kind of life,

296
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: and for me, I knew eventually that meant, you know, marriage,

297
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: and eventually I wanted to have kids. But I was

298
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: not the typical.

299
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 4: Ye you wasn't that you see yourself like I'm gonna

300
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 4: be married by twenty five, I'm gonna be married by thirty.

301
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 4: You never put goals. You was just like, when it happens,

302
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 4: it happens. I know I want the fullness of God

303
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 4: and that may until being married and having kids or whatnot.

304
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 5: But were you just more career focused?

305
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: I actually was? I I went to school for music business.

306
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: So doctor Miles really shaped our lives because when I

307
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: read on, you know, it was purpose driven life, not

308
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: purpose riven, that's not psal. It was in pursuit of

309
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: purpose and on becoming oh, potential potential. Why now you

310
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: are You're not feeling real bad right now? You're looking

311
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: down in heaven right now? Look at I'm sorry, dad,

312
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: what is the book? I had? Brain surgery? Full full stop.

313
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: I've had an aneurysm and brain surgery. Sometimes I can't

314
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: remember things cause somebody google that title for me, doctor,

315
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: they'll put it in a comment. Okay, So Understanding your Potential,

316
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: thank you, Holy Spirit. Understanding your Potential was the book

317
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: that changed my life. Okay. So I read Understanding Your

318
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: Potential and he talked about how we are not born

319
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: by accident, we're born for a purpose, Like it was strategic.

320
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: There was a reason, there was a need God had

321
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: in the earth, and he literally put you here to

322
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: solve that.

323
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 5: Amen.

324
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: And that blew my mind. I was in high school

325
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: trying to think about what I was going to do

326
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: in like, what I was going to do for a living,

327
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: what I wanted to do with my life. Where I

328
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: was going to go to college, and the Lord really

329
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: just started me thinking about what is my purpose? Right?

330
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: And I counted a blessing right that I started that.

331
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,360
Speaker 1: He said what's the thing that you would do for free? Right?

332
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: And I said, okay, well, I love ministry, I love God, right,

333
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 1: and I said I love music right. And I was like,

334
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: but I'm not a singer like I did worship, you

335
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: know in church. But I'm like, i am not the artist.

336
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: And I said, oh, music business, but gospel music business.

337
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: And that is what I went to n YU for

338
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: music business. And that's how I got really focused in that.

339
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: And I worked at like the first gospel music label

340
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: in New York City, which was Verity. It was part

341
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: of joves On, but when it really I helped, it

342
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: was me and the director started it. Wow, so John

343
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: p Key's gold record that was me, Wow, like show up,

344
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: you know that big show like up to my age.

345
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: I'm fifty four, nobody. And so that was what I

346
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 1: was doing. And then how I met Candice. She was

347
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 1: my first intern. Because I had a talent management firm.

348
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: I was representing gospel hip hop artists like the Ambassador

349
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: from Right, and she was my marketing intern and I

350
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: mean you're talking about you're working the Double Awards, the Stellars,

351
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: all of that, and all of a sudden, now I

352
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 1: got married. I'm thirty years old, Like picture of what

353
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: you call black excellence. I'm now happily married, thirty years

354
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: old for four years now, right, And my husband and

355
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: I are like, oh, you know, we've been happily We

356
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: didn't do the trying to get married have a baby

357
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: right away. We were happily married and we were like,

358
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: now it's time to grow our family. We're planners right,

359
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 1: like four years later, this is a good time. We've

360
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 1: experienced the transition. I am working at a top PR

361
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: agency at this time, okay, and I'm also building my

362
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: own talent management firm on the side, and that's where

363
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,239
Speaker 1: Candice was working with me. Now I start dealing with

364
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: infertility issues because I'm not conceiving for six months. Went

365
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 1: to the gyn and the doctors like, oh, you have

366
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: the word that changed my life, vibroids, And I was like,

367
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 1: what what is this? What is that? Benign tumors that

368
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: occur in and around the uterus that cause everything from

369
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: heavy bleeding to infertility to life threatening anemia that can

370
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: cause a heart attack to you know, just severe pain

371
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: and terrible periods. And at that time that was my

372
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 1: only symptom, was the issue with fertility. But that precipitated

373
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 1: my what I call million dollar baby journey. Right here,

374
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: I was million dollars, million dollar baby journey. Easy. Easy.

375
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:23,199
Speaker 1: Here I am at the double wards hemorrhaging being rushed

376
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 1: to the hospital, right like, this is the kind of life.

377
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: I was at the devil Wards.

378
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 7: Yeah.

379
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 1: And my journey was fourteen years battling fibroids, ten years

380
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: of infertility. From that five surgeries for fibroids. Is fifteen

381
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: surgeries altogether, right, five for fibroids, five for complications from

382
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 1: the fibroids surgeries. Right, So I'll give you an example

383
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: what that means. Second fibroid surgery, they cut me open

384
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: and and stem to stern because it was so bad.

385
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: I couldn't even walk the pain was so bad, and

386
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 1: he said it was one of the worst cases of

387
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: firebirds he'd ever seen. Ten days later, they have to

388
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: open me back up because I can't hold water, food,

389
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: anything down. And what had happened is I developed something

390
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: called a small bale obstruction, which is it means that

391
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: the scar tissue. You know what your body has to

392
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: form scar tissue to heel is very natural. It can

393
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 1: form something called adhesions, which is the sticky, sticky bands

394
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: right that now wrapped around my small intestines where now

395
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: they were knotted up. Oka, vomiting, can't keep water down,

396
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: can't even digest my own body fluids. So they have

397
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,679
Speaker 1: to put this tube up my nose, down into my

398
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: stomach to just pump out all of my body fluids

399
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,719
Speaker 1: to try to let it heal. Didn't heal, so they

400
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 1: have to cut me back open to cut out almost

401
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: two feet of small intestine. Now you're born with twenty

402
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: to twenty five, right, that's the first time they cut

403
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,719
Speaker 1: me every This is a thirty years old. This is

404
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: at this point thirty four. At this point I was

405
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: let me see because this is the second surgeries. I

406
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: was thirty six at this time. Okay, first surgery seemed

407
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: no complications, but I didn't get pregnant. Okay, okay, five

408
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 1: years later, six years later they came back. So two

409
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 1: thousand and six, now I'm having another surgery for five words. Now,

410
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: the symptoms were really bad. That's when I couldn't walk

411
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: like the pain was shooting up my entire body, and

412
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: they said, okay, the firebirds are back because she remember

413
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: she said, oh, you should conceive. No problem. I didn't conceive.

414
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 1: But you know, you're thirty, you're young. You're thinking like

415
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: it'll happen. Yeah, I have a little time, right, it'll happen.

416
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,479
Speaker 1: But the firebirds are back, and now I'm having a

417
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: secondary surgery twenty plus days combined in the hospital. The

418
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 1: recovery was brutal, brutal. Together, it's been over one hundred

419
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 1: and twenty days from all the surgeries because that continued

420
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 1: to happen because between I did five IVF cycles Chit

421
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:19,120
Speaker 1: Chin chu chin. Because they didn't cover it. Then there's

422
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: more coverage now they weren't covering it right. So what

423
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: I didn't know was that every time I was doing

424
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 1: the pumping my body with the hormones, it was causing

425
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: the five boards to grow again. So I'm either having

426
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 1: a five woorid surgery or I'm doing IVF right, and

427
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 1: every time we do another five word surgery, wait, wait, wait,

428
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: they're cutting more.

429
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 6: I want to pause there.

430
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: So the because I've I've frozen my eggs twice, which

431
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: is great, fantastic, goy.

432
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 6: Thank you.

433
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: And if you have not frozen your eggs and you

434
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: want to conceive and it's later in your life, please

435
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: freeze your eggs. That was a PSA.

436
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 3: But you mentioned what you're pumping your body with, So

437
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 3: there's a lot of you know, hormones that you're pumping

438
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 3: your body with in order to you.

439
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: Know, go stimular process development.

440
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 6: So walk that back. Explain that.

441
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 3: So I'm pumping my body, so you're telling me freeze

442
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 3: my eggs, but I'm pumping my body with hormones that

443
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 3: are going to stimulate my fibroids.

444
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, it does. So it's because hormonal balance is one

445
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 1: of the root issues, right, So at that point it's

446
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: like it's a cost connected to it because you want

447
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 1: to freeze your fertility as soon as you can, right, right.

448
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,199
Speaker 1: So the other thing that's really critical at which I

449
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 1: did not know, Well, let me finish that part of

450
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: the story first and I'll come back. So I've had

451
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 1: now every time, I love it. Every time the fib

452
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: words came back, they did another search.

453
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 5: Right.

454
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 1: So finally, at after the fifth IVF cycle, I conceive.

455
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 1: Right now, we had a miscarriage. The first time I

456
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 1: forgot that part which was devastating. That was the first

457
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: IVF cycle. But you're like, you're young, you'll be fine.

458
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: You know, fifth IVF cycle. I can see fifth one.

459
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 4: And put this in perspective. How much does IVF COSSA.

460
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: Oh, fifteen to thirty thousand, yeah, easy, yeah, And it

461
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: was really out of pocket then.

462
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 3: And I know in California, at least at the place

463
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 3: I was going to in the Valley, I think it's

464
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 3: like thirty thousand.

465
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 6: Yeah.

466
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 1: Well, I think now they give you more than just

467
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: one sometimes, okay, like two out of three or something

468
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,880
Speaker 1: like that. Okay, there's development. I remember this is happening

469
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 1: back in two thousand and eight for me, right, So

470
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,439
Speaker 1: twenty one weeks we I'm not twenty weeks and we

471
00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: conceived after the fifth IVF cycle, and we're developing. The

472
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 1: pregnancy is going well. I go to the doctor and

473
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 1: at twenty one weeks they're like you hear them kind

474
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: of whispering. The doctor and the tech are whispering. And

475
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 1: you know when the doctor's whispers never anything. They said,

476
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: missus Thompson, we need to speak to you in the office.

477
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: When you come to the office. When I tell you,

478
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: I'll never forget that moment, sitting across from that doctor,

479
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: and my husband was out of town because he was

480
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: on his first like. He had just become a CFO

481
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: one of GE's businesses. He was in Corporate America for

482
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: thirty years and in Schenectady. And the doctor says, Missus Thompson.

483
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 1: He said, the baby isn't growing the way it should

484
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: and you might want to consider terminating the pregnancy. Now,

485
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: this is ten years in, this is ten years in okay.

486
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: And he said you might want to consider terminating the pregnancy.

487
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:06,919
Speaker 1: And I said why. He says, because your womb is

488
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,120
Speaker 1: going to become a hostile environment for this baby because

489
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 1: the fibroids. I had just had another surgery less than

490
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: six months before that, I had a myameectomy. But they

491
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: were growing and taking the life supply away from the baby, right.

492
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 1: So he said, so, plus you have kidney issues, this

493
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,120
Speaker 1: is going to become dangerous for you and the baby.

494
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: So he said, you might want to consider terminating the pregnancy.

495
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: And I said, excuse me, I said, sir, He said, doctor,

496
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,199
Speaker 1: I believe in miracles and I'm not giving up on

497
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: this baby. And he said okay. He said, I've been

498
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,479
Speaker 1: doing this long enough to know that science doesn't have

499
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 1: all the answers. Just buckle up and go along for

500
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: the ride. They gave us the hormones for the steroids

501
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: for the baby's lungs because what was happening is is

502
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: called absence of blood flow, like where there's blood flow

503
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 1: that's supposed to go there with gaps in the blood

504
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 1: flow to the baby. Right six weeks later, it got

505
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: worse where the blood flow was now being pulled away.

506
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 1: Wows yeah, reversal blood flow. They admitted me to the

507
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: hospital right away, said missus Thompson. Right now, we're just

508
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: hoping that you can remain pregnant for at least seventy

509
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: two more hours because when this happens, what we've seen textbook,

510
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: you have to have emergency surgery. And when we get there,

511
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: they're telling us that they had me meet with neonatal

512
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: and the gastro team because they're saying the baby's not

513
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: viable to prepare the babe is actually at this point

514
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: we were twenty six weeks Oh okay, but the baby

515
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: was so small. It was a condition called fetal growth

516
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: restriction because the firebirds were pulling the life away from

517
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: the baby. Right, So They're like, this baby is not

518
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: even viable, right. And I remember my husband came from

519
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: out of town. He said, you know, said he said,

520
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: how long? I remember he went he went to the

521
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: doctor before this, when I first got told that, he said,

522
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna quote you, baby, he said, doctor, he says,

523
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: how long does my my daughter, my wife need to

524
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 1: be pregnant? Right? For? For how long do we need

525
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: to keep this pregnancy? And the doctor said, well, mister Thompson,

526
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 1: it would have to be at least thirty weeks for

527
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: it to be sustainable, you know, a viable pregnancy. He said, doctor,

528
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: he says, don't laugh. He said, my little man because

529
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 1: he swore was a boy, Okay, he said, my little

530
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: man is gonna give you between thirty two and thirty

531
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: three weeks, right. So I always said, baby, well you

532
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: got part of it, right. So they admit us to

533
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: the hospital. They admit me to the hospital, and the

534
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: nurses like they're just there. They're trying to keep me

535
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 1: from having birth as long as I can. Right now,

536
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: we have prayer warriors all over on this all right.

537
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 1: Every day they're testing me from five o'clock in the morning,

538
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: five times a day. They're testing me, and well, we

539
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: have another sunrise. This baby's okay today to the tune

540
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: of eight weeks. Wow, every day we have another sunrise

541
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: to the tune of eight. Now at thirty weeks, the

542
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: doctor says to me, this is another doctor with attending on.

543
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 1: I never forget that morning, he says, missus Thompson, I

544
00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: just want to apologize because we weren't trying to scare you,

545
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: because we have never seen this before. Textbook, this baby

546
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: was not supposed to make it right, textbook, seventy two

547
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: hours is all you had. And I said to him,

548
00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 1: I said, it's okay. I didn't expect you to know.

549
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: My God, come on, I didn't expect you to know

550
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: what he was doing. I didn't expect you to know,

551
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: but I had to know. Two weeks later, they scheduled

552
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: our sea section thirty two to thirty three. It was

553
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: between the thirty two and thirty third week because they said, well,

554
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:50,479
Speaker 1: at this point, the baby is actually healthier, is a

555
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: healthier outside than inside? Ye, right, And they didn't want

556
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: me to have an emergency situation because we had you know,

557
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,719
Speaker 1: then they had all the scar tissue they had to

558
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 1: deal with because of all my previous surgeries, so they

559
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: wanted to have as much control of the situation as possible.

560
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: But on the delivery table, my heart stops. My doctors

561
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: never forgot that. He said, all I heard is get

562
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: that baby out of there right now. He just took

563
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: my husband out, rushed him out, put me under because

564
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: I was on at that point, I was under an epidural,

565
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: but they said, we're going to put you fully under

566
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: because all I know is things were like going black.

567
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: And what happened because of that scar tissue that was

568
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: all from all the surgeries that in trying to get

569
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: not damage the baby, trying to gently get to it,

570
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 1: they caused my heart to stop right So, but thank

Speaker 5: How long did you.

576
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: Thirty days? Only? And I'm gonna say only because they said,

577
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: and I quote, this baby is so feisty, she knows whatever.

578
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: And one nurse, I remember the Nikki. One day she

579
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 1: said to the baby, she's talking to her. She said,

580
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: I hope I'm around to see how you change. The

581
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: world because I know this child is going to change

582
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: the world. And I was struggling because I remember now

583
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: I had secondary surgery because they had to repair the

584
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: small intestines that were damaged in the surgery. So I

585
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: didn't even see her until the next day. Like I

586
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: didn't hold my baby until the next day.

587
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 6: How long did your heart stop for?

588
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: Seconds? Okay, you know seconds, it's not something they want, period,

589
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: But they were able to quickly resuscitate me. And you know,

00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 1: her school for the first time. Mommy, they have a

620
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: big stage. There's the stage here. She runs to it.

621
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 1: She says, Mammy, I was supposed to be on the stage.

622
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: And I'm like, yeah, baby, that canna be presentations.

623
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 4: I am presentation.

624
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: Eight years old, we took her to see The Lion

625
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 1: King for her eighth birthday and this woman, a dear

626
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 1: friend of my sister's, Sharon, took us for a backstage

627
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:23,320
Speaker 1: tour and she turned Nia. She says to Nia and

628
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 1: her two bestie says, what do you want to be

629
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 1: when you grew? You grew up? And Nia says, my

630
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: daughter's nia means purpose shout out doctor Milesboro again. She says,

631
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 1: I want to be in the Lion King. So she

632
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: said at eight years old and four years so wait, no,

633
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 1: at six years old, I forgot to say at six

634
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 1: years old, six years old. This is when she yanked

635
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: my change. She said, Mommy, I'm supposed to be in

636
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 1: my first project project. Because I wasn't getting it when

637
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 1: she kept saying be on the staye. She said, I'm

638
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: supposed to be in my first project by the time

639
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 1: I'm seven or eight, She.

640
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,760
Speaker 5: Told you, yeah, are you over holding up? Her doesn't.

641
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 1: By the time I said, whoa, it was like a

642
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: profountic that's very serious. It shook me because it was

643
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: like very specific, and I was like, well, lord, what

644
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: do I do with this? I started looking for an

645
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 1: agent and she got signed right away, and her first

646
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 1: project was booked literally a month, a month after her

647
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 1: first her eighth birthday, excuse me it was It was

648
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: a short short film. She actually then ended up working

649
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:37,720
Speaker 1: with Lupita Nyango on a short film project. First first film,

650
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 1: Yes with right sorry solong stage and she said she belonged,

651
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: and she did. On her twelfth the night before her

652
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 1: twelfth birthday, she booked the role of young Naala in

653
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,239
Speaker 1: The Lion King on Broadway and she did that for

654
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: eight and a half months. So God turned around and

655
00:37:53,719 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: made me a talent manager for this one. Yes. He's like, oh,

656
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: they don't waste nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, And while

657
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 1: you know, he literally started to Once my story came out,

658
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: I became an advocate where I was like, wait a minute,

659
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: why are all these women suffering and there are no

660
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:24,240
Speaker 1: marches and there's no education. Why do I I felt

661
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: like I was all by myself becoming a medical assistant,

662
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 1: trying to piece all the parts together. And I realized

663
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:36,720
Speaker 1: that literally, it's a public health issue that is underserved,

664
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 1: and I started. I went from being an activist to

665
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: a founder. I started my own holistic health company called

666
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 1: detox now and really started focusing on what's in out

667
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 1: what first of all, what's driving these things?

668
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 7: Yeah?

669
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: Right? And then I learned that the same things driving

670
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 1: these things are driving inflammatory health issues like high blood pressure,

671
00:38:55,719 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 1: like diabetes, like cancer, because they're core to us as

672
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: people period, right in terms of the inflammatory health issues

673
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 1: that we deal with. And I was like, Okay, well

674
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 1: wait a minute, why are we finding this out? Yeah?

675
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: Why aren't we knowing this? And that really is what

676
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: for me? It just it became a mantra that we

677
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: have to put the the cavalryes not coming. Do we

678
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: have to put the power that's getting our hands?

679
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 3: Yeah?

680
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: Right. And when I learned that you battle fibroids, I

681
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,279
Speaker 1: was like, I got to talk to her.

682
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 3: I do, And so I kind of wanted to ask,

683
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 3: as you know, someone who is dealing with fibroids currently,

684
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 3: what are the things you said, there's so much that

685
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 3: we don't know. And I'm sure you've got a book

686
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 3: or two or three on all of the things we

687
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 3: should know, but at a high level, absolutely, what are

688
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 3: some of the key things that we should be aware of?

689
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:53,399
Speaker 6: And in tune two?

690
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. So I did write a book called n

691
00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 1: Fibroid's manual and guide. Okay, it's at my website, but

692
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: the company is detox Now on the website the Detox Now.

693
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 6: So we got to go get the book.

694
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:12,240
Speaker 1: Yes, But the key thing is when people think around

695
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: five broids, that if I have surgery, because really the

696
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: surgery and temporary drugs are the only real treatment options

697
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 1: that they offer, right outside of don't bother them. If

698
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 1: they don't bother you, don't let one person tell you

699
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: don't bother them. If they don't bother you, find another doctor.

700
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,280
Speaker 1: That's just not going to serve you because they will eventually.

701
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: Waiting till they bother you is not a strategy. Okay,

702
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: So it's like an oncoming train. I'm like, oh, I'm

703
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: gonna wait till it hits me. No, Right, So the

704
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: four key drivers that have been really identified by research,

705
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: because there's so many papers on this now are course,

706
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 1: stress is like stress is a key driver of all

707
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: illness period. Right. It's called if you look at the

708
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: word disease, disease, break in peace, it's in the break

709
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,879
Speaker 1: in the peace. Right, It's the root of really all illness, right,

710
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 1: because it starts the whole chronic inflammation in your body.

711
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: It disrupts your hormones, right, and it causes your body

712
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: to start to fight itself. Right. So as people of

713
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 1: color were disproportionately affected by that, as black women even

714
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 1: more right, whow because the trauma of racism, the trauma

715
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 1: of misogyny, right, it is literally embedded in the life

716
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 1: that we have to we have to fight twice as hard.

717
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 1: Just look at just whether it's just being a woman

718
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: or being a person of color period, right, So think

719
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: about it, even if it's not you're not dealing with

720
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:48,280
Speaker 1: it on a micro level in your own direct life.

721
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: You're dealing with it on a macro level. Right. Microaggressions,

722
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: the fact that people look at you just because of

723
00:41:56,000 --> 00:42:00,400
Speaker 1: your skin color, right, the news, you see what's happening

724
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,239
Speaker 1: all the time. So it's just just a reality. It's

725
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: the landscape of how we the context of our lives.

726
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 7: Right.

727
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 1: So because of that, we have to be even more

728
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 1: intentional about reducing our stressors and not allowing those things

729
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 1: that are toxic unnecessarily in our lives. Right. So stress,

730
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: but the things that we can so we can help

731
00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 1: reduce our stressors. Right. But people will say, well, stress,

732
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 1: it's just like it's a lot. There are things you

733
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 1: can do to help with stress. But then also here's

734
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:35,280
Speaker 1: one that's very preventable. Vitamin D deficiency. Right, huge vitamin

735
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: D deficiency is actually significant for men and women, but

736
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 1: it disproportionately affects people of color because our melanin it

737
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: actually blocks the absorption of the sun. Now, our melanin

738
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 1: protects us from so much, but in that it actually

739
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 1: causes a The way that your body absorbs and creates

740
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 1: the vitamin DE hormone is that your body creates a

741
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 1: photosynthesis process where it absorbs the light from the sun

742
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 1: the UVB rays and it develops and creates the vitamin

743
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 1: D hormone. Now, vitamin D has a critical role in

744
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 1: what strengthening your immune system, strengthen your bones, reducing chronic inflammation,

745
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 1: balancing your hormones all right, as well as protecting your

746
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: cardiovascular health. Five key functions.

747
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:34,760
Speaker 10: Functions, okay, which can easily be fixed by just making

748
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 10: sure your vitamin D is not just and that's a

749
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 10: whole other thing, not just what I call.

750
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: I call it. You know, they say it's normal at thirty, right,

751
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: but it's actually the high range is thirty to one hundred.

752
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,760
Speaker 1: So it's actually what therapeutic levels is around sixty to eighty.

753
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,919
Speaker 3: I'm glad you said that because I just got prescribed

754
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 3: like medical vitamin D that the doctor actually gaves.

755
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:06,359
Speaker 1: How many I use?

756
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 2: Is it?

757
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 3: Uh? Oh, I don't remember that. I just went through

758
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 3: the whole thing that once a week or is it

759
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 3: it was once a week? Right, So it doesn't have

760
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 3: K two in it. So got the other thing. Okay,

761
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 3: So D three and this is not just for her,

762
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,440
Speaker 3: it's for you and her. D three has to be

763
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 3: taken with K two right, because D three helps your

764
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 3: body absorb calcium because remember it, strength is your bones.

765
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 1: You've learned that all your life. D Vitamin D milk,

766
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: it's strong bones. But it doesn't tell you that K

767
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,840
Speaker 1: two is what actually directs that calcium to your bones

768
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: so that it doesn't stick in your arteries and cause

769
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:45,280
Speaker 1: that hardened plaque right where it can damage your cardiovascular

770
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 1: health as well as calcify those fibroids right, so that

771
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: the calcium doesn't affect your tissues. So it's like the

772
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: traffic director, right, So we don't want struggle bus D

773
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 1: three most are and I promise you somebody who tells

774
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: you your D three is normal number one. Look at

775
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: the number right, If it's thirty to forty.

776
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,200
Speaker 3: Five, mine was twenty eight. I remember that that's ambicient.

777
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 3: I know, I know that's.

778
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 1: You want to be between sixty. That's called therapeutic levels.

779
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,799
Speaker 1: Therapeutic levels means that's the level which there are. D

780
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,840
Speaker 1: three actually plays an active role in your healing. Okay, okay,

781
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: So there's been studies that show how D three therapy

782
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 1: has been used to actually help fight the fibroids, to

783
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: help prevent them, to have help to shrink them again.

784
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 1: But remember it's connected to those five six six six

785
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,760
Speaker 1: health functions, right, So how easy is it to fix?

786
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 1: Just take the D three plus K two daily. But

787
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 1: we're so miseducation.

788
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:49,880
Speaker 4: So you said the daily one versus by her getting

789
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:50,760
Speaker 4: the weekly.

790
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 1: Well, she's about to get mine, which is daily and

791
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: with the K two. Okay, that's important because they'll give

792
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:02,280
Speaker 1: you high levels of D three. Yes, yeah, I'm sending

793
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 1: it for fellow for his health period, for baby's health.

794
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 4: Yes.

795
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 1: And if I were to tell you how many women

796
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 1: these coaching sessions I have and I asked them, okay,

797
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 1: you were you were diagnosed with fibers. What did your

798
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:20,919
Speaker 1: doctor tell you about D three? Nothing? It is strongly

799
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 1: linked to the number one hormone in your body uses

800
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 1: to fight inflammation and tumor. Is D three.

801
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,720
Speaker 4: I don't want to say why.

802
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, because well to be clear in case my doctor

803
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 3: is watching this.

804
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 1: Yes, they did give me the no, she did that.

805
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 6: Good, So I just want to keep I want to

806
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 6: keep on this.

807
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,359
Speaker 1: Againes watching No, Thank god she did tell you that. Yeah,

808
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 1: because guess what the other thing is though, they will

809
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 1: tell you did They'll tell you that your number is

810
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 1: normal and it's struggle bus all right, So struggle bus

811
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,400
Speaker 1: is thirty to forty forty five? You really again, you

812
00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 1: want it between sixteen and eight.

813
00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 3: I've been struggling for a year. I'm gonna look at

814
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 3: all report, but you.

815
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 1: Were never taking enough if you ever were taking D three?

816
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 1: Were you taking D three?

817
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 6: I was taking it?

818
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 1: How much were you taking?

819
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,080
Speaker 6: I gotta go back and look at but I've been taking.

820
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 1: So that's the other business mistake is that we're told

821
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 1: take D three, But do you know if you're not

822
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 1: taking a minimum of If you're so, twenty five hundred

823
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 1: is how much you take just to keep your levels normal?

824
00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 4: Wow?

825
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:23,640
Speaker 5: Ah?

826
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:25,920
Speaker 1: Many times when I ask you how much D three

827
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:27,799
Speaker 1: you're taking? Oh, it's in my multivitamin. How much is that?

828
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: Like four hundred iu? You know, that's what. Guess what

829
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,359
Speaker 1: they saylatarious. I could never get my D three up.

830
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 3: That's but let me ask you because because some people

831
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 3: believe like we should get a lot of these vitamins from.

832
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 1: The food that we eat, D three is not one

833
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 1: of those. So you don't get D three not really, No,

834
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:49,440
Speaker 1: it's very hard to take D three. Sunlight. Sunlight, it's

835
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: not really in a food source. It's really, you know,

836
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 1: through the sun that is number one. But guess what,

837
00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 1: it's not just any sun. It's not, Oh the sun

838
00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: is out, let me go get D three, No, it

839
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 1: is the sun has to be. When the sun's altitude

840
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,800
Speaker 1: is above fifty that's when the sun is emitting something

841
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 1: called UVB rays. Okay. UVB rays are not the temperature,

842
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 1: the altitude, like the positioning of the sun.

843
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:16,759
Speaker 4: So when is the zene at the round noon?

844
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 1: Right, So, but depending on where you are living, you

845
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,399
Speaker 1: don't even get UVB raysed all year round. Right right

846
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 1: here in Dallas you get them more because you're closer

847
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 1: to the equator. Typically the closer you are to the equator,

848
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 1: the more UVB rays are available during the day.

849
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 4: That's why a lot of people down in South America

850
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,400
Speaker 4: and all that, they probably don't deal with a lot

851
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 4: of stuff we deal with her.

852
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,440
Speaker 1: But guess what they most a lot have the opportunity

853
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,720
Speaker 1: not to. But I have clients who live in very

854
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:51,920
Speaker 1: high temperature and UVB areas, but where they usually the

855
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:56,440
Speaker 1: between ten and two o'clock where most people work. Yeah,

856
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,200
Speaker 1: so because they're at work, they're not basket. And the

857
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,200
Speaker 1: more melanated as you are, the longer you have to

858
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:05,839
Speaker 1: be in the sun for the melano sites to be activated.

859
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 1: So this is why, if you are a person of color,

860
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 1: you better be taken D three plus K two every day.

861
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 1: That's good, whether it's to maintain it, because that's the

862
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 1: other thing. I have a client she had gotten up

863
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,879
Speaker 1: to ninety. She was like, oh, Jessie, I'm doing great.

864
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,239
Speaker 1: Her doctor told her, you're good now, you don't need

865
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:24,960
Speaker 1: to take it anymore. She didn't tell me.

866
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,239
Speaker 4: I told her that about taking it, so she was like.

867
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:30,200
Speaker 1: Oh, you're good, you don't need anymore. Three months later

868
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:34,360
Speaker 1: she's at a thirty five. That fast drug go bust.

869
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 5: Three months later.

870
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 1: Three months later.

871
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,440
Speaker 4: Wow, So she was taking twenty five hundred a day

872
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 4: she was.

873
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,359
Speaker 1: Taken on at that point, she was taking thinking she

874
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,799
Speaker 1: was taking about seventy five hundred a day, so I.

875
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 4: Used I'm talking about before that to get to ninety, No.

876
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,239
Speaker 1: To get to ninety she was taking about seventy five

877
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:52,800
Speaker 1: hundred to ten thousand. But you want to take between

878
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 1: five and ten thousand a day, yes, to get it

879
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:58,719
Speaker 1: up there. The one she's they prescribed to her is

880
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:02,200
Speaker 1: about fifty or three already three thousand for once a week,

881
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,280
Speaker 1: so it's about five thousand a day, right.

882
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 6: Okay, right, so that makes sense.

883
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, So what you want to do take between five

884
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:12,359
Speaker 1: and ten depending on how deficient you are and how

885
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 1: symptomatic you are. If you're trying to reverse your symptoms,

886
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:17,960
Speaker 1: you want to get high in healthy asap. You're not

887
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 1: trying to take your time.

888
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,280
Speaker 5: Take your time. Yeah.

889
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 1: I always say it's like going to war with no

890
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 1: ammunition in your gun. Your body doesn't have the reserve

891
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:33,080
Speaker 1: to actually and guess what it affects. Also, menopause, there

892
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:37,440
Speaker 1: are women who are dealing with severe menopause symptoms, perimenopause

893
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:41,799
Speaker 1: symptoms because of their D three deficient deficiency.

894
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,440
Speaker 3: But we do need to get outside, absolutely right, So

895
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,200
Speaker 3: we need to go outside.

896
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 1: Just because of fresh air. Yeah, we need to go

897
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:53,239
Speaker 1: outside for exercise, all of those things. But actual D

898
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: three therapy, yep, we need to be doing that. On

899
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 1: the need to do so, it was stress D three deficiency.

900
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 1: And guess what. I the reason I always say D

901
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 1: three is so important is also it's connected to the

902
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: chronic inflammation and the hormonal balance, which are the other two.

903
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 1: Because D three helps balance your hormones and reduce chronic inflammation.

904
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:17,160
Speaker 1: So in and of itself, it helps to do that,

905
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,360
Speaker 1: and it's connected to reducing your stressors. It's connected to

906
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 1: mental health, brain health. I forgot that. That's another one,

907
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,319
Speaker 1: brain health, that's right, right, So if you don't do

908
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 1: nothing else, that show D three plus K two right,

909
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,799
Speaker 1: because it affects so much health period. And that is

910
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:42,359
Speaker 1: why the statistic is seventy five percent of Americans are

911
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 1: D three deficient. Wow, seventy three seventy five So that's

912
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:51,880
Speaker 1: all ethnicities, yes, yes, and you see what white people

913
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 1: people are Caucasian friends, they don't have to take as much,

914
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 1: they don't have to stay in the sun as much,

915
00:51:57,239 --> 00:52:00,319
Speaker 1: but they suffer from is what we suffer from more

916
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:02,839
Speaker 1: because the exposure it takes a lot more and we

917
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 1: have the melanin that's blocking it. Now. Chronic inflammation is

918
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 1: something and hormone balance are the other two. So stress,

919
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:14,879
Speaker 1: vitamin D deficiency, chronic inflammation, and hormone balance. Let's talk

920
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: about hormonone balance real quick. Eighty percent of the products

921
00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: that are marketed to black women are toxic. They are

922
00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:35,280
Speaker 1: contaminated with ingredients that actually lead to hormone disruption, reproductive damage,

923
00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 1: and carcinogens. Right, So you're talking about beauty products, you're

924
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:48,360
Speaker 1: talking about lotions, and you know, the home care products,

925
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:53,040
Speaker 1: all of those things. So it's legal to poison us

926
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,480

00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:50,240
Speaker 4: gonna walk around the bowls.

987
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:51,200

Speaker 1: Do you deal with allergies?

993
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:06,200
Speaker 6: I don't want to.

994
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:07,839
Speaker 5: Say yes, so don't even don't know.

995
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,840
Speaker 1: But I bet you, I bet you that eighty percent

996
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,160
Speaker 1: of your allergies are caused by those things in your home.

997
00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:15,680
Speaker 5: I believe now.

998
00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:18,000
Speaker 4: I do believe that because I go in certain environments,

999
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:19,960
Speaker 4: I get to sneezing and doing all that. Then I

1000
00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 4: go to certain things it's like yep, yeah, so I

1001
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 4: know one came.

1002
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:26,359
Speaker 1: And then like teflon, you know in the in the

1003
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,839
Speaker 1: pots those things versus stainless steel.

1004
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 6: We don't use that.

1005
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,600
Speaker 5: Yeah. And so I used to sell cook wear.

1006
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:36,120
Speaker 4: So I'm a very good I know about very aware

1007
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 4: about all types of the metals and stuff like that.

1008
00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:41,279
Speaker 1: But it's even like the natural do you know the hair?

1009
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:42,839
Speaker 1: You know about the Brady hair?

1010
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:44,560
Speaker 5: Yes, I know about my hair that.

1011
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:48,400
Speaker 3: I literally started using. I don't know how to pronounce it.

1012
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 3: So I'm not gonna.

1013
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,719
Speaker 1: Stay non toxic. Yeah, they don't have to endorse them.

1014
00:56:53,440 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, but get but think about that things that are skin,

1015
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:07,359
Speaker 8: things that are we're using every day, that it is

1016
00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:11,080
Speaker 8: that toxic, right, and it's disrupting our hormones. And then

1017
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 8: when you talk about that presence every day, that now

1018
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:16,680
Speaker 8: fuels toxic.

1019
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: The chronic inflammation. What happens is your body goes through

1020
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:22,960
Speaker 1: stress level one and then that causes your body, you know,

1021
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:30,840
Speaker 1: chronic inflammation is your Okay, so your body goes into right,

1022
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 1: you're in fight or flight, and then that now drives

1023
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 1: your body to develop chronic inflammation at levels to levels

1024
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:41,480
Speaker 1: so now where it actually develops chronic disease. Right, And

1025
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 1: that's what we We have so much power to reverse

1026
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:50,000
Speaker 1: that just making those decisions. So for me, it was about, okay,

1027
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 1: what can we do? And I noticed that when we

1028
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:59,160
Speaker 1: started helping women target those four things, right, the testimonies,

1029
00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 1: we're just incredible.

1030
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:03,400
Speaker 5: How long did it take for you to start hearing?

1031
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:07,400
Speaker 4: Like when you when someone makes a decision to change behavior,

1032
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:10,280
Speaker 4: how long does it take to see results? All?

1033
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 1: Right, sot me run down the receipts. So I told

1034
00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:16,800
Speaker 1: you've been doing this since about twenty fifteen. That's when

1035
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: we kind of launched, and our first real major testimony

1036
00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:24,240
Speaker 1: was a woman named Annalie Henry. She's She's okay with

1037
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:28,000
Speaker 1: me saying her name. She shared her story on Breakfast

1038
00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 1: Club with us. You know, you're so funny.

1039
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:31,480
Speaker 5: I heard you.

1040
00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 1: Listen how to Get Away with Murder. I love that

1041
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:49,720
Speaker 1: she had she eliminated fifty fibroids five zero in six months.

1042
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 4: Did I watch that you on your page? I watched

1043
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 4: that on your page earlier today. And I mean, because

1044
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:57,400
Speaker 4: is that the same one that announced that she had

1045
00:58:57,440 --> 00:58:58,240
Speaker 4: just gotten pregnant.

1046
00:58:58,320 --> 00:59:01,560
Speaker 1: Oh no, that's another song. That's another She's last because

1047
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 1: she's right here in Dallas. Okay, so another woman. Sorry,

1048
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 1: I just ran into her husband yesterday. They've had two

1049
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:11,760
Speaker 1: miracle babies. She was trying to they were trying to

1050
00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:14,640
Speaker 1: conceived for ten years. Battle fireb words really bad. Her

1051
00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:18,280
Speaker 1: name is Rachelle. Battlefirebords really really bad, to the point

1052
00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 1: where she was on birth control for many years. And

1053
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:26,600
Speaker 1: birth control actually just masks the symptoms, but it pumps

1054
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:30,440
Speaker 1: your body with synthetic hormone that fuel in the background.

1055
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:33,800
Speaker 1: You may be feeling like, oh, the doctor put me

1056
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:37,400
Speaker 1: on it to regulate my hormones. But all it does

1057
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 1: is mask the symptoms while it's wreaking havoc in the background.

1058
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:47,320
Speaker 1: And it's also connected to blood clots embolisms.

1059
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,040
Speaker 4: And so I've always said that, and here I am

1060
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:51,880
Speaker 4: as a male. I kept saying that even with my daughter,

1061
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 4: when you know her mother put on birth control when

1062
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 4: she was younger. And I was like, maybe I'm just

1063
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 4: man's plaining this, but that don't make If something is

1064
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 4: inside your body blocking you from what God naturally allowed

1065
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:05,640
Speaker 4: to happen, it cannot be good.

1066
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:08,360
Speaker 5: Because I said, God, God and all.

1067
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 4: His infinite wisdom, that your blood had to flow a

1068
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 4: certain way system, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna hinder it.

1069
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 4: And it's like I want to get I said, that

1070
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 4: can't make sense to me. It's like, well, no, that

1071
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,439
Speaker 4: doesn't make this. I said, it just doesn't make sense.

1072
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 3: So I have and I have a real story that

1073
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:32,000
Speaker 3: I actually I haven't shared, but I used to as

1074
01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 3: a teenager have very bad periods. So I was on

1075
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:39,440
Speaker 3: birth control and I was prescribed the patch, and so

1076
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:45,080
Speaker 3: I was flying probably thirds probably I was flying to

1077
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:50,200
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh to go visit a college and on the plane,

1078
01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 3: I got very lightheaded. I felt like my blood wasn't

1079
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,480
Speaker 3: flowing properly. And I don't know, like you know how

1080
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:02,040

Speaker 4: Yeah.

1099
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 1: So so again. So this woman she was dealing with,

1100
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:52,800
Speaker 1: she was taking birth control. When she stopped taking it,

1101
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:55,760
Speaker 1: the fireboids who were massive, she didn't realize that that

1102
01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:58,280
Speaker 1: was developing her body. She was She also had really

1104
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:07,040
Speaker 1: I'd have to show you it's so bad, right, And

1105
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:12,000
Speaker 1: she she did our program and she and her husband

Speaker 1: within like five months. They had their first miracle baby

1111
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,440
Speaker 1: and the second miracle baby. And we had another client,

1112
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:37,880
Speaker 1: the Tarsia. She shrunk a ten centimeter firebroid in four months, right,

01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:06,880
Speaker 1: show in venture with CBS, and it's the first of

1120
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:10,000
Speaker 1: its kind. It's really historic where you see an affluent

1121
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:14,960
Speaker 1: black family, all right, the center story and really they're

1122
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: dealing with a lot of different things. But What I

1123
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:20,000
Speaker 1: love about it is representation. We get to see us

1124
01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:24,520
Speaker 1: on TV every day, all right, so please support. So

1125
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:29,080
Speaker 1: she's on set. She has fibroids. She doesn't know about

1126
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 1: like what's going on. She just has verly heavy periods.

1127
01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,360
Speaker 1: She's on set. Her doctor's calling her because she finds

1128
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:38,200
Speaker 1: out she is down to a hemoglobin a five point five.

1129
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,280
Speaker 1: That is your body think about as ten is the

1130
01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:43,880
Speaker 1: number that your body had. So she's almost at half

1131
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 1: the blood in her body. She was like the way

1132
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:49,400
Speaker 1: she said it one cycle away from a stroke or

1133
01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 1: a heart attack. Right, Wow, she had a forty five

1134
01:03:53,120 --> 01:04:02,120
Speaker 1: day cycle. Yes, yes, in six weeks on our balancer kit,

1135
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,439
Speaker 1: she's down to a seven day. Then the next month

1136
01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:08,880
Speaker 1: it was a six day cycle. Okay, because again you're

1137
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:12,880
Speaker 1: targeting the root. And then I have to share. You

1138
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:20,960
Speaker 1: know Selena who is here detown Dallas who as she

1139
01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:23,960
Speaker 1: was told she had a nine point one sentime to

1140
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:27,520
Speaker 1: Firebird with the largest one. She was told she had

1141
01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:30,160
Speaker 1: to have surgery right away if she wanted to have

1142
01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 1: a baby, because they were trying to conceive and she

1143
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:34,720
Speaker 1: had had a miscarriage. And then when she asked about

1144
01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:39,440
Speaker 1: what she found out she had fibroids. She has a

1145
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,760
Speaker 1: husband who's into fitness and he just felt like, you

1146
01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:45,120
Speaker 1: know what, there has to be a natural way because

1147
01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 1: hashtag God created the body to heal itself. It is

1148
01:04:51,080 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 1: amazing when we get out the way, what the body

1149
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:59,640
Speaker 1: will do. Right. She decided to do the Balancer kit

1150
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 1: and in six weeks she did another scam that documented

1151
01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:07,760
Speaker 1: that her fibroid had shrunk from nine point one centimeters

1152
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:12,880
Speaker 1: to four centimeters and within a month they conceived and

1153
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:17,200
Speaker 1: they just had their baby literally flew on Friday.

1154
01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:23,520
Speaker 2: The baby that's okay, wow, glory wow.

1155
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:27,120
Speaker 1: And that so again, you know, and this is this

1156
01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 1: is just on the fibrous side. We've had people reverse

1157
01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:35,000
Speaker 1: high blood pressure and you know, just deal with regulating

1158
01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:39,200
Speaker 1: their cholesterol, chronic pain, Like they're people who wake up

1159
01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:42,640
Speaker 1: in pain every day and they're like, I'm not supposed

1160
01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:45,360
Speaker 1: to live like this. And when you reset your body,

1161
01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:50,600
Speaker 1: because that is an indication that inflammation is in control

1162
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 1: in your body and that means it's prime for other

1163
01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:55,840
Speaker 1: health chronic health issues.

1164
01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:59,520
Speaker 4: I imasgine this can a person do a program with you,

1165
01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,000
Speaker 4: but don't stop the problem. Like for inst I have

1166
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:05,800
Speaker 4: a loved one that smoke cigarettes, So can they be

1167
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:07,600
Speaker 4: doing that still smoking cigarettes?

1168
01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:12,520
Speaker 1: So there are different levels of toxicity and smoking is

1169
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:16,880
Speaker 1: one of those really bad ones. Right. It's like saying,

1170
01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:20,000
Speaker 1: you know, can I continue to you know, not just

1171
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 1: have a glass of wine, but drink every day? You know,

1172
01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 1: alcohol is now linked to cancer. Right, And it's not

1173
01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:31,600
Speaker 1: that you won't see any improvement because doing something good.

1174
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:32,120
Speaker 6: I feel.

1175
01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 1: This is why I say, I say, start doing something good,

1176
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:38,200
Speaker 1: and you'll want to do the bad things less, right,

1177
01:06:38,560 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 1: because if you it's like when you start to love

1178
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:46,680
Speaker 1: on yourself, right, by loving who God made you to be,

1179
01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:51,200
Speaker 1: and you start to pursue healing, you become less attached

1180
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,760
Speaker 1: to those things that are actually drawing away and actually

1181
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:58,920
Speaker 1: damaging you. Right, it's a natural thing. So I focus

1182
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:01,600
Speaker 1: less on what you need to stop doing. I focus

1183
01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,600
Speaker 1: more on what you need to start doing. And when

1184
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:11,480
Speaker 1: you start doing those things, yeah, it's just like pursue the.

1185
01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:15,720
Speaker 5: Cross, you'll stop doing all the bad stuff.

1186
01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:20,240
Speaker 1: It's once you start pursuing him there, it is, yeah, right,

1187
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:24,160
Speaker 1: once you pursue him. So for us it's like, hey,

1188
01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:29,080
Speaker 1: give you the tools, and people feel like, well, you know,

1189
01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:31,640
Speaker 1: I can't do everything they want to be overwhelmed, and

1190
01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:35,520
Speaker 1: for me, it was very critical in formulating our our

1191
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:40,000
Speaker 1: program was that we wanted our supplements to to deal

1192
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,880
Speaker 1: with multiple things, so it's less things you had to

1193
01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:44,680
Speaker 1: get less. I'm like, I got to take.

1194
01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:49,920
Speaker 5: Right a detox addict.

1195
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:53,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm not going to do it. It's not maintained,

1196
01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 1: it's not sustainable.

1197
01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,080
Speaker 3: So walk us through the process of like how you

1198
01:07:57,280 --> 01:08:02,120
Speaker 3: got these supplements, how you test them, all of that

1199
01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 3: important stuff.

1200
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,440
Speaker 1: So I've been doing this for so many years and

1201
01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:08,760
Speaker 1: there's so much research around it that it was really

1202
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:14,760
Speaker 1: partnering with manufacturers that do the that are FDA certified, right,

1203
01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:19,240
Speaker 1: manufacturers that are FDA NSFGMP. Those are the certifications in

1204
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:22,720
Speaker 1: terms of because supplements are not FDA certified, but the

1205
01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,360
Speaker 1: process right by which and then also that all of

1206
01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:30,240
Speaker 1: the ingredients and the and the protocols were science packed us.

1207
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 1: That was really critical and that we knew that For instance,

1208
01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:36,280
Speaker 1: if I say to you, I've given you vitamin D,

1209
01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:39,120
Speaker 1: but it's not the scientist, it's not the therapeutic value.

1210
01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,000
Speaker 1: What's that going to do for you? I'm just really

1211
01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:42,880
Speaker 1: giving you. You know, how many supplements are out there

1212
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:45,920
Speaker 1: packed with vitamin D and really you get in just

1213
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,040
Speaker 1: a little bit right, or it has all these things,

1214
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:51,559
Speaker 1: these seventy two things. But you know, it's like when

1215
01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:53,840
Speaker 1: I hear people say, oh, Siemas has one hundred and two.

1216
01:08:54,120 --> 01:08:56,680
Speaker 1: First of all, that is not true. Okay, it is

1217
01:08:56,760 --> 01:09:00,360
Speaker 1: like nine, which is good, but let's not lie and say,

1218
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:05,439
Speaker 1: you know, let's let's yeah, nothing has every single thing right.

1219
01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:09,120
Speaker 1: And also that you've you've taken the time to look at.

1220
01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:11,720
Speaker 1: For me, it's about putting the education back in the

1221
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,280
Speaker 1: people's hands. That's why people say doctor justin I'm like, no,

1222
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:17,600
Speaker 1: That's why I kept saying I'm a coach because but

1223
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:20,160
Speaker 1: I want you to become the doctor of your own health.

1224
01:09:20,960 --> 01:09:24,040
Speaker 1: Right that you understand because once the powers in your hand,

1225
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. I always say that's why I love

1226
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:28,680
Speaker 1: women so much, because I say, when you, when you

1227
01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:31,520
Speaker 1: impact a women, you're going to change a whole generational

1228
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:34,960
Speaker 1: unity for sure. Yeah, And so for us it was

1229
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:39,920
Speaker 1: about them being premium right and also for our protocols

1230
01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:43,040
Speaker 1: once a day because I felt like, if I don't

1231
01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 1: get it that one time, it's not a lot of

1232
01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:47,320
Speaker 1: chance I'm gonna get to do it again. You know

1233
01:09:47,360 --> 01:09:49,719
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, you know, saying, especially when you're dealing

1234
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:54,200
Speaker 1: with a woman's health issues. Again, we helped, we support

1235
01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:56,400
Speaker 1: men with our detoxes are fast and all of this,

1236
01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:59,439
Speaker 1: but when we're looking at the things that are affecting

1237
01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:03,280
Speaker 1: women's health, women barely have time to take care of themselves.

1238
01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:06,880
Speaker 1: We barely do right. And we need to know that

1239
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:10,240
Speaker 1: if I take to do this one thing for myself

1240
01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 1: once a day, I'm gonna I'm gonna see progress. I'm

1241
01:10:13,640 --> 01:10:16,679
Speaker 1: gonna actually make progress. And then when I make progress,

1242
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:19,519
Speaker 1: I'll be inspired to do more. I'll be inspired to

1243
01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:22,599
Speaker 1: take that air freshener out the house and change the

1244
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:26,360
Speaker 1: products that I'm using and eat better. Right because a

1245
01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:28,080
Speaker 1: lot of people say, oh, it's just change your diet,

1246
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:30,960
Speaker 1: just stop eating everything that tastes good and stop doing

1247
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:38,200
Speaker 1: all that. It's true, grow all your vegetables, Grow on

1248
01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:41,639
Speaker 1: my vegetables, he said. Anointing he said.

1249
01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 6: To me a week ago. He was like, I don't

1250
01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:46,719
Speaker 6: even care about how it tastes anymore. I don't even care.

1251
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:48,639
Speaker 4: What it tastes. Like, I said, I'm just gonna eat

1252
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:52,759
Speaker 4: to live. I'm gonna eat whatever it tastes. I would

1253
01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:56,280
Speaker 4: eat what if it's healthy. I'd just be like, but

1254
01:10:57,439 --> 01:10:57,920
Speaker 4: because this.

1255
01:10:58,120 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 3: Ring has been tracking like hell, sleep and all of

1256
01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:03,679
Speaker 3: the stuff, and how's it going doing great?

1257
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:04,360
Speaker 1: It's going great.

1258
01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:05,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, she got me.

1259
01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:07,240
Speaker 4: I always joke with people and say she was the

1260
01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:08,760
Speaker 4: first one to get me a ring. She gave me

1261
01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:11,680
Speaker 4: a ring first, because when I got with her, she

1262
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:13,639
Speaker 4: was so concerned. She was like, I want to get

1263
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:15,160
Speaker 4: your ring. How long had you been on it?

1264
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:15,519
Speaker 5: For a year?

1265
01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:17,040
Speaker 6: After maybe like six months?

1266
01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,320
Speaker 4: Six months? And so she got me the or ring

1267
01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:20,960
Speaker 4: and she was like, I don't think you get enough rest.

1268
01:11:21,040 --> 01:11:22,760
Speaker 4: I don't think you do this. And I was like

1269
01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:25,639
Speaker 4: all right, So and then I was like, man, because

1270
01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 4: I was very apprehensive. I don't know why men are

1271
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:31,080
Speaker 4: like that. Be like, I don't want you tracking my health.

1272
01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:32,960
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying. And then she talking about

1273
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:33,920
Speaker 5: add me to the circle.

1274
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:35,200
Speaker 7: You know.

1275
01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 5: The thing.

1276
01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:40,400
Speaker 4: I said, man, I forget you. So I do all that.

1277
01:11:40,520 --> 01:11:43,400
Speaker 4: So if my ring be snitching telling me, telling her

1278
01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:47,080
Speaker 4: I only got amount of hours by my sleep score

1279
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,400
Speaker 4: and all that. So now I started becoming competitive. That's

1280
01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:50,000
Speaker 4: another thing about it.

1281
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:55,400
Speaker 5: You're ready to store.

1282
01:11:56,600 --> 01:12:09,599
Speaker 11: And I was like, what's your activities? You've been going to.

1283
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:08,000
Speaker 5: People give me a check, check, rum me a check

1284
01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:09,000
Speaker 5: future wife.

1285
01:12:10,640 --> 01:12:13,559
Speaker 11: That's right, because we're focusing on getting health. I want

1286
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:17,439
Speaker 11: to be a part of it absolutely or any plate studio, yes.

1287
01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:24,800
Speaker 4: Attached to us. So so that's what it is. And

1288
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 4: so I prioritize my health. And it's interesting because people

1289
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:30,880
Speaker 4: are d m me or comment I see you losing weight,

1290
01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:33,599
Speaker 4: the tears. I'd be like, be quiet, you know, but

1291
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,000
Speaker 4: now it's a compliment. But the truth is is that

1292
01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:39,800
Speaker 4: they see the result of of of being intentional. And

1293
01:12:39,840 --> 01:12:42,679
Speaker 4: I said that it's funny because my boy Kevin Stage

1294
01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:46,800
Speaker 4: made a post where he was encouraging black men to

1295
01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:49,679
Speaker 4: go to the doctor. He made a post in February

1296
01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:52,559
Speaker 4: about that, and everybody started going off on him.

1297
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:55,200
Speaker 5: Been negative. They were like, what your time I go

1298
01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:57,040
Speaker 5: to doctor? I'm fine, I don't need to go to doctor.

1299
01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:02,800
Speaker 1: States right this regular visit. She said, what doctor you

1300
01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:03,840
Speaker 1: going to?

1301
01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:04,439
Speaker 5: Oh?

1302
01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:16,160
Speaker 4: So you just like having a finger in your I mean,

1303
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:18,800
Speaker 4: they started going so in that. He was like, don't

1304
01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 4: go to doctor. I don't care if you live.

1305
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:25,040
Speaker 1: It's crazy, you know. And it's funny because you know,

1306
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:27,640
Speaker 1: we love this mantra. Health is your wealth, so we

1307
01:13:27,680 --> 01:13:31,120
Speaker 1: don't really live it generally speaking. I was talking about

1308
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,400
Speaker 1: that at the exponent. I was like, we have this

1309
01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:36,599
Speaker 1: strategy like get your bag, gets your bag the bag,

1310
01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:47,040
Speaker 1: And I said, but can your body.

1311
01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:46,559
Speaker 3: Talk a little bit because you mentioned where your husband works,

1312
01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:50,639
Speaker 3: talk a little bit about because I know that this

1313
01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:54,599
Speaker 3: disproportionately affects black people. Absolutely talk a little bit about

1314
01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:58,519
Speaker 3: processed food and what you have seen the effects be

1315
01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:00,000
Speaker 3: on our body.

1316
01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:03,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean think about that. So processed food means

1317
01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:08,880
Speaker 1: it's just it's the additives, it's the chemicals that are

1318
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:12,559
Speaker 1: being used, right, So that's part of it drives the

1319
01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:16,400
Speaker 1: chronic inflammation and the hormonal balance, So two of those

1320
01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:20,479
Speaker 1: key drivers. Right. And you know, of course food is

1321
01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:23,400
Speaker 1: your first medicine. Your first medicine is what you put

1322
01:14:23,400 --> 01:14:26,760
Speaker 1: in your body every day. Yes, you're sleep, but what

1323
01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:29,040
Speaker 1: you eat every day, the water that you drink, the

1324
01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:32,920
Speaker 1: food that you eat. So I'm very intentional about whole foods.

1325
01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:36,360
Speaker 1: I am very intentional about eating things that you know

1326
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:39,640
Speaker 1: don't come from a can as much you know, and

1327
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,920
Speaker 1: don't are not fast foods as much as possible, right,

1328
01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:48,439
Speaker 1: because if you think about it, if I'm giving my body,

1329
01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:50,400
Speaker 1: I want the food that I put in my body

1330
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:53,439
Speaker 1: to heal me, not hurt me. That's good, right, that's

1331
01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:56,240
Speaker 1: what we want. It should be our medicine and not

1332
01:14:56,360 --> 01:15:00,639
Speaker 1: our entertainment because that's what we a lot of t Yeah,

1333
01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:01,919
Speaker 1: we eat for entertainment.

1334
01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:03,200
Speaker 5: I want to be my fuel.

1335
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:04,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, it needs to.

1336
01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:07,559
Speaker 3: Be our fuel and explain to people who may not know,

1337
01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:09,479
Speaker 3: because I really think that a lot of people don't

1338
01:15:09,479 --> 01:15:13,040
Speaker 3: know what's processed versus what's real. Yeah, So give just

1339
01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,479
Speaker 3: a couple of examples of things that people may not

1340
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:18,320
Speaker 3: know are processed. I hear A big one is like

1341
01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:22,360
Speaker 3: Deli meats, Oh my god, and people sometimes are just like,

1342
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:24,120
Speaker 3: I'm having a sandwich, that's healthy.

1343
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:27,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. So that so, first of all, you know, we

1344
01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:30,200
Speaker 1: have something called the toxic eight list right in my

1345
01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:33,240
Speaker 1: n fibroids book, and we talk about toxic eight is

1346
01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:38,240
Speaker 1: everything from processed foods to of course alcohol and any

1347
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:40,800
Speaker 1: kind of drugs. Right, But people don't think about the

1348
01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,840
Speaker 1: fact that Deli meats how they come about You're not

1349
01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 1: You're talking about it's not even real, Like there are

1350
01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:52,439
Speaker 1: quote unquote antibiotic free it's actually from a pastor raid.

1351
01:15:52,560 --> 01:15:54,280
Speaker 1: Like you have to really look at all all the

1352
01:15:55,280 --> 01:15:59,880
Speaker 1: details the labels is really important, right, But you're talking

1353
01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:03,719
Speaker 1: about was it like as close to its natural form

1354
01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:08,160
Speaker 1: as possible as a whole food? Right? So that's why

1355
01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 1: I was saying about the app, like you can use

1356
01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:12,719
Speaker 1: it to scan food too, because there's so many chemicals

1357
01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:15,040
Speaker 1: that you don't even know the names of, right, that's

1358
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:19,240
Speaker 1: the thing. And in that they hide so many poisons

1359
01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:21,920
Speaker 1: in those so like and one of the things that

1360
01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:25,400
Speaker 1: makes me really upset with the bread because people love bread, right,

1361
01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:29,760
Speaker 1: bread and pasta. But in the US it's legal to

1362
01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:33,479
Speaker 1: put glyphasay And there was a whole thing recently about

1363
01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:36,840
Speaker 1: it being you know, what do you call it allowed?

1364
01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:40,360
Speaker 1: You know, voted okay, and that's not the proper terminology,

1365
01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:43,960
Speaker 1: but made legal, right, it's the terminology, and glycasay it

1366
01:16:44,040 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 1: is illegal. It's banned outside of it, Like you can

1367
01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:52,439
Speaker 1: have pasta and bread in Italy and France and feel good.

1368
01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:53,919
Speaker 6: Yeah, I feel bloated.

1369
01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:57,559
Speaker 1: That is so true, because it's not it's not the

1370
01:16:57,600 --> 01:17:01,040
Speaker 1: bread that's the problem. It's the it's grown in the seed.

1371
01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:04,360
Speaker 1: It's what's in the in the in the the farming,

1372
01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, When how they're growing, it's

1373
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:08,800
Speaker 1: the glife is that they and why they use these

1374
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:11,800
Speaker 1: things is to make it that they last longer on

1375
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:16,360
Speaker 1: the shelf. So if it's on a shelf, it's probably processed, right,

1376
01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:21,800
Speaker 1: because think about that, if something has a expiration date

1377
01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:23,479
Speaker 1: that is year, what do.

1378
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:26,160
Speaker 3: You think they got in that that make it last

1379
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:26,599
Speaker 3: that long?

1380
01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:27,280
Speaker 9: Yes?

1381
01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:29,559
Speaker 6: And then once I've play it in my body, how

1382
01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:30,320
Speaker 6: long does it last?

1383
01:17:31,520 --> 01:17:34,439
Speaker 1: It doesn't break down? And what happens if your body

1384
01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:37,320
Speaker 1: can't break it down? If your body can't break it down,

1385
01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:44,360
Speaker 1: it turns into which then creates tumors. Right, creates damages

1386
01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:49,200
Speaker 1: cell DNA, that's right, It damages our DNA, and now

1387
01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:53,960
Speaker 1: that creates many diseases. So it's so it's like soap.

1388
01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:58,519
Speaker 1: It's actually part of the culture. Right. Disease is part

1389
01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:00,760
Speaker 1: of the culture because of the toxicity that is just

1390
01:18:00,880 --> 01:18:02,400
Speaker 1: laden in everything around us.

1391
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:06,200
Speaker 4: You were saying that doctors, what'd you say about hospitals

1392
01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:07,360
Speaker 4: want you to STACEI.

1393
01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:13,240
Speaker 1: They you know the way. I think it's Chris Rock

1394
01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:17,200
Speaker 1: that said it that the the money is in the treatment,

1395
01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:20,960
Speaker 1: not the cure. Right. It's because if I cure you,

1396
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:25,439
Speaker 1: then you don't have a billion dollar business. Right. It's

1397
01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:29,000
Speaker 1: like birth controls, birth control pills have been used not

1398
01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:35,800
Speaker 1: just for contraception. They've been used for acne, hormonal acne,

1399
01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:41,519
Speaker 1: They've been used for cramps. Right they yeah, Like seriously, therewith, oh,

1400
01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:46,599
Speaker 1: she's getting really bad skin put on birth control control? Yes,

1401
01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:52,599
Speaker 1: it's yes, yes, And just what you said, stopping the

1402
01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:57,439
Speaker 1: system that God created to detox my body for that

1403
01:18:57,720 --> 01:18:59,719
Speaker 1: when the truth is, oh, but what are you putting

1404
01:18:59,840 --> 01:19:00,719
Speaker 1: in your body?

1405
01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:01,160
Speaker 6: That?

1406
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:05,040
Speaker 1: But then Jesus say it is not valid.

1407
01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:08,160
Speaker 5: What we put in was coming out, So.

1408
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 3: Tell us what what is like just your diet? What

1409
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:12,040
Speaker 3: is your diet like?

1410
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:20,639
Speaker 1: So no, I have a very appetite. So remember part

1411
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:22,559
Speaker 1: of this thing I didn't finish about my story, which

1412
01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:26,280
Speaker 1: is really important, is that when because of all the

1413
01:19:26,280 --> 01:19:30,519
Speaker 1: fibroid surgeries, remember I had the complications where you developed,

1414
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:33,599
Speaker 1: I developed small valobstructions. I had to have five of

1415
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:36,360
Speaker 1: those surgeries where I was left with less than three

1416
01:19:36,479 --> 01:19:37,799
Speaker 1: feet of small test.

1417
01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:40,920
Speaker 4: He kept cutting it off a surgery, So after.

1418
01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:42,839
Speaker 1: Each surgery they had to cut more of the small

1419
01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 1: small testines out because of the scar tissue that it

1420
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:47,280
Speaker 1: was attached to it, the adhesions.

1421
01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:50,360
Speaker 5: You said, I read it cut twenty one feet off.

1422
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:53,559
Speaker 1: Twenty feet because I have less than three feet left

1423
01:19:53,560 --> 01:19:57,120
Speaker 1: and you're born with twenty five. Wow. Right, so think

1424
01:19:57,160 --> 01:20:00,280
Speaker 1: about that now. Your immune system, eighty percent of your

1425
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:06,479
Speaker 1: immune system is in your gut, right and your brain God, yes,

1426
01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:09,960
Speaker 1: yes it is. And your brain is your gut is

1427
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:13,760
Speaker 1: called your second brain. So your brain health and your

1428
01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:20,240
Speaker 1: immune health are literally centralized in your gut. Right, So

1429
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:24,720
Speaker 1: think about the capacity God designed what you need. You

1430
01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:30,120
Speaker 1: need them twenty five feet to operate. I've been left

1431
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:33,240
Speaker 1: with less than three from all this, So that means

1432
01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:37,800
Speaker 1: immuno compromise. Right. That means if you saw me when

1433
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:41,200
Speaker 1: I walked in, I was bundled up because I have

1434
01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:46,719
Speaker 1: to be more intensive intentional about keeping my body protecting

1435
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:51,080
Speaker 1: it from immune response. Right. It's easier to get sick,

1436
01:20:51,400 --> 01:20:56,479
Speaker 1: harder to get better. Yeah, okay, so that affects your gut,

1437
01:20:56,760 --> 01:21:02,200
Speaker 1: your digestive process. Right now, anyone who has ever had

1438
01:21:02,280 --> 01:21:06,559
Speaker 1: a c section, a lap band surgery, a bariatric surgery,

1439
01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:10,639
Speaker 1: any surgery where you've had abdominal surgery of any kind,

1440
01:21:11,439 --> 01:21:16,440
Speaker 1: you have a lifetime risk to develop a small bow obstruction.

1441
01:21:17,200 --> 01:21:19,120
Speaker 1: Your doctor did not tell you. I want you to

1442
01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:23,600
Speaker 1: take the time to research it. But any abdominal surgery

1443
01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:26,880
Speaker 1: comes with a lifetime risk, and it doesn't just happen

1444
01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:30,400
Speaker 1: right after surgery. It can happen ten years down the road.

1445
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:36,599
Speaker 1: My friend just had a friend of hers, right, who

1446
01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:41,000
Speaker 1: just died from a small bo obstruction. Lisa Marie Presley,

1447
01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:45,040
Speaker 1: Elvis Presley's daughter died from a small boo obstruction. Tea

1448
01:21:45,160 --> 01:21:49,520
Speaker 1: Boz had to get off tour because she had emergency.

1449
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:53,000
Speaker 1: It was a small boo obstruction and it can cause

1450
01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:56,960
Speaker 1: death if they catch it in time, you can't survive

1451
01:21:57,040 --> 01:22:00,760
Speaker 1: like I did. Right. But the point is we're not

1452
01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:03,400
Speaker 1: told that there are things that we need to do

1453
01:22:03,479 --> 01:22:07,280
Speaker 1: to help our bodies. Protect your body from developing that

1454
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:10,559
Speaker 1: style of obstruction. Number one, if you cannot have surgery,

1455
01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:13,000
Speaker 1: do what it takes to help your body not to

1456
01:22:13,040 --> 01:22:15,400
Speaker 1: have to have surgery, right, that's number one.

1457
01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:15,920
Speaker 4: Right.

1458
01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:19,519
Speaker 1: That's why our kit helps to help people to help

1459
01:22:19,560 --> 01:22:23,000
Speaker 1: prevent the fibroids as well or the INDO or the system.

1460
01:22:23,040 --> 01:22:25,519
Speaker 3: But I want to because you said, if the doctor's

1461
01:22:25,520 --> 01:22:30,040
Speaker 3: saying don't fix it, you said, don't listen because eventually

1462
01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:32,479
Speaker 3: you have to fix it. Yes, but then you're saying

1463
01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:36,240
Speaker 3: you don't want to obstruct your so talk about that.

1464
01:22:36,320 --> 01:22:39,240
Speaker 1: So let me clarify that. Okay, So there are cases

1465
01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:40,679
Speaker 1: where you have to have surgery.

1466
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:41,280
Speaker 6: Right.

1467
01:22:41,479 --> 01:22:46,439
Speaker 1: Those cases are if you're hemorrhaging, if it is posing

1468
01:22:46,520 --> 01:22:51,800
Speaker 1: damage to other organs. Right. That is, like it can

1469
01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:54,400
Speaker 1: be pressing on your bladder to a point where it

1470
01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:57,840
Speaker 1: can cause damage to your kidneys because you're urinating so much. Right,

1471
01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:00,400
Speaker 1: it can be at the point where it's pressed on

1472
01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:04,559
Speaker 1: your kidneys where it causes something called hydronephrosis, where it's

1473
01:23:04,600 --> 01:23:07,959
Speaker 1: called inflammation of that kidney because it's damaging your urrodors.

1474
01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:10,880
Speaker 1: If that is happening, you absolutely need to because you

1475
01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:14,439
Speaker 1: can't afford to allow kidney damage to develop. Right, you

1476
01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:18,040
Speaker 1: need to have that surgery for that purpose. Right. If

1477
01:23:18,080 --> 01:23:20,880
Speaker 1: you are trying to conceive right away and you have

1478
01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:26,040
Speaker 1: a very you have advanced fibriate disease, your timetable requires

1479
01:23:26,080 --> 01:23:29,280
Speaker 1: for you that you need to have surgery, right because

1480
01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:33,040
Speaker 1: of your timetable. Right, But if it is not and

1481
01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:36,200
Speaker 1: some people just want to have it, right, so surgery

1482
01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:39,960
Speaker 1: is an option, Okay, But I want you to know

1483
01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:43,040
Speaker 1: if you do choose surgery or you have to have surgery,

1484
01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:45,639
Speaker 1: that you also need to follow a protocol to help

1485
01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:49,120
Speaker 1: your body prevent the small val obstruction. That's the part

1486
01:23:49,120 --> 01:23:53,799
Speaker 1: we're not being told. I have not met one person

1487
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 1: who was even told that there's a risk of small

1488
01:23:56,200 --> 01:24:00,000
Speaker 1: vobstruction from their abdominal surgery. I'm shouting from the mountain

1489
01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:03,000
Speaker 1: because I learned it the hard way, and I had

1490
01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:06,240
Speaker 1: to have I had a conversation with a board certified

1491
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:10,720
Speaker 1: gastroin terrologist who said it out of his mouth. He said, yes,

1492
01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:13,559
Speaker 1: it is true. You have a lifetime risk from any

1493
01:24:13,600 --> 01:24:17,720
Speaker 1: abdominal surgery. And they think, oh, my surgery is The

1494
01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:21,000
Speaker 1: doctor said, it looks good. We're not talking about external

1495
01:24:21,040 --> 01:24:25,800
Speaker 1: scars here. We're talking about the healing on the inside

1496
01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:28,360
Speaker 1: that does not show up on any scan.

1497
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:30,200
Speaker 5: Wow.

1498
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:32,960
Speaker 1: Let that sink it. So do you understand why we

1499
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:36,120
Speaker 1: have to be preventive right, and how do you help

1500
01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:40,760
Speaker 1: your body prevent it? Vitamin D deficiency? Make sure you

1501
01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:44,480
Speaker 1: have therapeutic high values because remember that reduces chronic inflammation

1502
01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:46,639
Speaker 1: because what causes it to grow is the same thing

1503
01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:51,479
Speaker 1: that causes the fireports to grow. Right, hormonal imbalance, right,

1504
01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:57,599
Speaker 1: chronic inflammation stress, the same things. It's called abnormal tissue

1505
01:24:57,640 --> 01:25:02,759
Speaker 1: proliferation is what it's called it caused that abnormal growth. Right,

1506
01:25:03,280 --> 01:25:05,080
Speaker 1: but have you ever heard that before?

1507
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:06,040
Speaker 10: Never?

1508
01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:11,120
Speaker 1: Never, So, but what's happening is my cousin had to

1509
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:13,400
Speaker 1: have emergency surgery because all of a sudden she couldn't

1510
01:25:13,439 --> 01:25:16,040
Speaker 1: keep anything down. She had to be rushed to the hospital.

1511
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:18,320
Speaker 4: And I've never even heard about K two. The only

1512
01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:24,479
Speaker 4: time I've heard about K two is it was synthetic weed. Yes, yes,

1513
01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:26,599
Speaker 4: K two.

1514
01:25:26,520 --> 01:25:28,080
Speaker 1: Yes, not vitamin cakes?

1515
01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:32,720
Speaker 5: Is that not crazy?

1516
01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:32,920
Speaker 4: So?

1517
01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:35,120
Speaker 1: Going back, so you asked me the reason I backing

1518
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:36,720
Speaker 1: up intil because you asked me about what I eat.

1519
01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:40,360
Speaker 1: So I'm saying this because I have a matrix of

1520
01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:43,960
Speaker 1: things I have to consider in my diet. So I'm

1521
01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:48,320
Speaker 1: not saying this that this is something I'm recommending for everybody. Okay. So,

1522
01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:51,480
Speaker 1: and I found out when I found out I had fibroids,

1523
01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:54,400
Speaker 1: I found out I had kidney disease. It's genetic in

1524
01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:58,040
Speaker 1: my family. And my doctors are like, wow, you're still here.

1525
01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:00,640
Speaker 1: I was like, well, that's detox living because there's no

1526
01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:06,160
Speaker 1: cure and it's most people are on diabetes dialysis. Excuse

1527
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:09,680
Speaker 1: me by now, right, So I navigate kidney disease. I

1528
01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:13,040
Speaker 1: navigate I'm gonna run it down from all the complications

1529
01:26:13,080 --> 01:26:17,840
Speaker 1: I navigate the small bowl. It's called short bowel syndrome, right,

1530
01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:24,080
Speaker 1: osteoporosis from because of the fact that my last fibroid

1531
01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:29,760
Speaker 1: surgery was a hysterectomy, right, Okay, glaucoma.

1532
01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:32,439
Speaker 4: How's lacoma comes to the mix because.

1533
01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,040
Speaker 1: Kidney's genetic, I think because my grandmother has its. Okay,

1534
01:26:35,160 --> 01:26:39,000
Speaker 1: all right, of course, hormonal imbalance just because of the

1535
01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:44,720
Speaker 1: disruption from the hysterectomy. And then so with all of that,

1536
01:26:45,320 --> 01:26:48,439
Speaker 1: I have a pescatarian diet because of the healthy fats, right,

1537
01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:53,360
Speaker 1: I deal with gluten free. Gluten is one of those inflammatories, right,

1538
01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:56,599
Speaker 1: as well as I don't do any dairy. So those

1539
01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:58,600
Speaker 1: are my like soy, I don't do any soy. So

1540
01:26:58,600 --> 01:27:00,720
Speaker 1: those are the three key thing for key things for me.

1541
01:27:00,840 --> 01:27:08,599
Speaker 1: Those like the guidance it's imbalanced hormonal balance. It really

1542
01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:11,280
Speaker 1: disrupts your hormones and it's not all soy.

1543
01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:21,439
Speaker 3: The soy overseas I was good, Yeah, I was talking

1544
01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:26,360
Speaker 3: because doctors can't get that here can Doctor Zury from

1545
01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:31,080
Speaker 3: CEDAR Shout out to doctor Zury who was over like

1546
01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:35,360
Speaker 3: colon cancer at CEDAR Si night in Los Angeles. He

1547
01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:40,360
Speaker 3: told me to be very careful of soy synthetic here here, Yeah,

1548
01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:43,640
Speaker 3: it's synthetic here. And the thing is when people go vegan, they're, oh,

1549
01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:46,760
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna have to like you have to be careful, right,

1550
01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:51,920
Speaker 3: But just let me share a guide for just finding

1551
01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:54,160
Speaker 3: out what's the best diet for you.

1552
01:27:54,640 --> 01:27:59,840
Speaker 1: Right. So, your body actually is you have to start

1553
01:28:00,040 --> 01:28:03,240
Speaker 1: listening to your body, because your body's speaking all the time, right,

1554
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:08,439
Speaker 1: And our body actually has something called inflammatory responses, right,

1555
01:28:08,760 --> 01:28:14,960
Speaker 1: so it's through our body will show inflammation through you

1556
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:19,800
Speaker 1: know what it is called swelling, right through pain, right, redness, Right,

1557
01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:24,360
Speaker 1: those are signs of inflammation. And what will happen is

1558
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:27,120
Speaker 1: for me right away if I if I start to

1559
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:31,080
Speaker 1: get congested, I know that something in that sugar is

1560
01:28:31,120 --> 01:28:34,080
Speaker 1: another real big trigger. Yes, sugar is a really big toxin.

1561
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:37,840
Speaker 1: Right away, I'll start to oh, okay, something in that

1562
01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:44,120
Speaker 1: I shouldn't eat right or it will cause bubble guts,

1563
01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:47,040
Speaker 1: or it will cause bloating. So a lot of times

1564
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:50,759
Speaker 1: people will be like, push past it. Well, your body's

1565
01:28:50,800 --> 01:28:55,200
Speaker 1: telling you something, right, it's telling you nah, we don't

1566
01:28:55,280 --> 01:29:00,200
Speaker 1: roll with that, right, So it's not it's not that

1567
01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:03,400
Speaker 1: there's a hard fast diet that's best for everybody, but

1568
01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:06,920
Speaker 1: if your body, if you eat for your genetics, which

1569
01:29:07,080 --> 01:29:10,960
Speaker 1: is hey, I ate that. And but the biggest thing

1570
01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:14,240
Speaker 1: is we we have we have muzzled, We have muffled

1571
01:29:14,240 --> 01:29:16,800
Speaker 1: our bodies for so long because we haven't listened that

1572
01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:18,760
Speaker 1: we don't really know because it ain't talk, it's hard

1573
01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:22,200
Speaker 1: to hear. That's why we need to do it. A fast, right.

1574
01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:25,000
Speaker 1: A fast will help you reset your body, right, so

1575
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,639
Speaker 1: that your body now cleans out and your detox functions

1576
01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:31,200
Speaker 1: are now reset and oil and optimized. Then you're like, oh,

1577
01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:33,719
Speaker 1: I ate that, and all of a sudden, I didn't

1578
01:29:33,720 --> 01:29:36,840
Speaker 1: feel so good. Right, So if we will just listen

1579
01:29:36,920 --> 01:29:40,240
Speaker 1: to our bodies, right, if we'll listen, then we'll be like, oh,

1580
01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:43,200
Speaker 1: that's not that's not good for me. That doesn't that's

1581
01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:46,639
Speaker 1: not something that my body responds well to. And then

1582
01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:50,320
Speaker 1: from there you can determine for you, you know, what

1583
01:29:50,360 --> 01:29:53,639
Speaker 1: you'll eat as part of your day to day, right,

1584
01:29:53,880 --> 01:29:56,120
Speaker 1: and then what will be something that maybe you'll treat

1585
01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:59,080
Speaker 1: yourself with, right, but something that's not going to be

1586
01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:01,400
Speaker 1: part of your day to day be because it's harmful

1587
01:30:01,439 --> 01:30:06,000
Speaker 1: for you right. It's a culture of developing this listening

1588
01:30:06,040 --> 01:30:08,400
Speaker 1: to our bodies because that's one of the biggest signals

1589
01:30:08,400 --> 01:30:10,720
Speaker 1: that God has given us. Like pain. Pain is not

1590
01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:14,800
Speaker 1: something we should ignore. That's good. It's not like the

1591
01:30:14,840 --> 01:30:18,439
Speaker 1: fact that something is hurting is your body saying hey, yeah.

1592
01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:24,000
Speaker 1: The worst headache of my life in twenty twenty. It

1593
01:30:24,040 --> 01:30:29,360
Speaker 1: was post COVID and woke up. I had had a headache,

1594
01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:32,760
Speaker 1: like a mild headache for a while, and it was

1595
01:30:32,800 --> 01:30:35,200
Speaker 1: a lot of stress. It was a lot going on, right.

1596
01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:37,560
Speaker 1: We had like the what we call the trifecta of

1597
01:30:37,960 --> 01:30:42,400
Speaker 1: a pandemic. It was a crisis racially, the irracial eruption.

1598
01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:46,040
Speaker 1: It was, you know, the stress of a pandemic where

1599
01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:48,439
Speaker 1: kids are home and everything was right, and then there

1600
01:30:48,520 --> 01:30:54,000
Speaker 1: was the economic factors going on. And I'll never forget

1601
01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:57,320
Speaker 1: it was now the third day, and it was a

1602
01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:59,960
Speaker 1: third day was like the worst headache of my life.

1603
01:31:00,280 --> 01:31:03,320
Speaker 1: I woke up that morning and I said God, I

1604
01:31:03,439 --> 01:31:06,479
Speaker 1: just said God, what is this? And I heard the

1605
01:31:06,479 --> 01:31:12,720
Speaker 1: word aneurysm. I heard the word anneurism. And because of

1606
01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:18,280
Speaker 1: the kidney condition, I was more at risk for an aneurysm.

1607
01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:21,599
Speaker 1: Now I had erica get up mornings to do that morning.

1608
01:31:21,760 --> 01:31:26,920
Speaker 1: So I did that interview, email my doctor. What and

1609
01:31:27,040 --> 01:31:29,840
Speaker 1: my doctor said, go to the er right away and

1610
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:33,960
Speaker 1: get an MRA. Right, not MRI but MRA. It actually

1611
01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:39,000
Speaker 1: shows what's happening in the blood vessels. Did the test,

1612
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:43,360
Speaker 1: thank god, because my family was like, no, if you're

1613
01:31:43,360 --> 01:31:46,040
Speaker 1: in pain, you gotta go because your blood your pain

1614
01:31:46,120 --> 01:31:48,639
Speaker 1: level is so high. Remember I've had all these SORGE.

1615
01:31:49,160 --> 01:31:52,120
Speaker 1: My threshold for pain so high. At this point, they

1616
01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:54,920
Speaker 1: were like, if you're saying, you're saying you better go

1617
01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:58,760
Speaker 1: to the doctor. Yep, I went. My blood pressure was

1618
01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:02,880
Speaker 1: sky high, right, I see them whispering. I already know

1619
01:32:02,960 --> 01:32:06,240
Speaker 1: something wrong. They tell me you indeed have a significant

1620
01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:10,360
Speaker 1: brain aneurysm. My bread blood pressure sky rocketed to one

1621
01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:12,880
Speaker 1: ninety nine. It was crazy.

1622
01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:15,800
Speaker 4: And what made that jump like that? There's nothing, you just.

1623
01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:17,840
Speaker 1: Know the pain the pain level was talking.

1624
01:32:17,880 --> 01:32:19,760
Speaker 4: I'm talking about you just woke up one morning or

1625
01:32:19,800 --> 01:32:21,280
Speaker 4: you was doing like what were you doing.

1626
01:32:21,439 --> 01:32:22,760
Speaker 1: That developed that?

1627
01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:23,840
Speaker 4: It so.

1628
01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:29,000
Speaker 1: In my case, I had the kidney disease, right, but

1629
01:32:29,080 --> 01:32:32,280
Speaker 1: then I had the stress of the pandemic. My blood

1630
01:32:32,280 --> 01:32:35,400
Speaker 1: pressure had become irregulated.

1631
01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:36,040
Speaker 4: Because of the pandemic.

1632
01:32:36,280 --> 01:32:39,240
Speaker 1: Yes, and guess what. I didn't have high blood pressure

1633
01:32:39,280 --> 01:32:42,880
Speaker 1: before this. Okay, my blood My blood pressure was one

1634
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:45,559
Speaker 1: ten over seventy. It was normal. And with kidney disease,

1635
01:32:45,840 --> 01:32:49,360
Speaker 1: blood pressure is one of the highest issues, right And

1636
01:32:49,439 --> 01:32:52,240
Speaker 1: at that point, they were refrigerating bodies in New York City,

1637
01:32:52,320 --> 01:32:54,840
Speaker 1: So I went nobody running to go to the doctor. Yeah,

1638
01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:57,040
Speaker 1: because you got your head you see what I'm saying.

1639
01:32:57,560 --> 01:33:00,760
Speaker 1: Because it was more dangerous going to the dock. So

1640
01:33:01,479 --> 01:33:03,960
Speaker 1: it wasn't until things were, you know, like at the

1641
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:06,040
Speaker 1: point where I was like, I have to have to

1642
01:33:06,080 --> 01:33:08,960
Speaker 1: go some like at this point, it was really bad.

1643
01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:14,960
Speaker 1: And it turns out now the headache. I found out

1644
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:17,920
Speaker 1: at the same time when they did the scam that

1645
01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:21,920
Speaker 1: showed the aneurysm, that I actually had a growth on

1646
01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:26,759
Speaker 1: my parathyroid, which is not your thyroid, it's behind your thyroid.

1647
01:33:26,760 --> 01:33:31,679
Speaker 1: It's called the parathyroid. And what was causing the headache

1648
01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:36,280
Speaker 1: was actually the parathyroid issue. But the headache is what

1649
01:33:36,360 --> 01:33:40,600
Speaker 1: saved my life because typically speaking, you wouldn't. So I

1650
01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:42,880
Speaker 1: was saying, God, you saved you would you don't. How

1651
01:33:42,880 --> 01:33:46,560
Speaker 1: many people die with an aneurysm that ruptures Yeah, yeah,

1652
01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:50,760
Speaker 1: without because there's no symptoms until it's too late. It's

1653
01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:55,200
Speaker 1: too late exactly. Yeah. So it became a thing where

1654
01:33:56,920 --> 01:34:00,519
Speaker 1: there was like, listen to your body, thank God, Yeah,

1655
01:34:00,840 --> 01:34:01,800
Speaker 1: I listened to my.

1656
01:34:03,880 --> 01:34:07,120
Speaker 4: Uh, why do you feel like your body has been

1657
01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:09,360
Speaker 4: under attack so much? What do you feel like the

1658
01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:11,200
Speaker 4: calling is over your life? Because I hear a lot

1659
01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:15,200
Speaker 4: of stuff about people I go to the spiritual and

1660
01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:18,920
Speaker 4: for you to be under attack this many times? What

1661
01:34:19,120 --> 01:34:22,040
Speaker 4: has God spoken or what has been prophetically spoken over

1662
01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:24,760
Speaker 4: your life as a young girl, or what what do

1663
01:34:24,800 --> 01:34:26,840
Speaker 4: you think that is what has been spoken over your life?

1664
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:29,799
Speaker 1: You know? It's so I love that you asked that question.

1665
01:34:29,920 --> 01:34:35,800
Speaker 1: So I remember when I first after my story came

1666
01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:40,559
Speaker 1: out in essence and I started to working with women,

1667
01:34:40,840 --> 01:34:45,519
Speaker 1: you know, and helping them heal targeting these issues. I

1668
01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:48,160
Speaker 1: remember one day because we had had a coaching session.

1669
01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:50,160
Speaker 1: It was a group coaching session with women going through

1670
01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:55,200
Speaker 1: and all these testimonies were coming forth and I after

1671
01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:57,679
Speaker 1: I hung up, I got off that zoom. I was

1672
01:34:57,800 --> 01:35:01,120
Speaker 1: I was sobbing. I was like, God, where was this

1673
01:35:01,160 --> 01:35:05,680
Speaker 1: when I needed it? You know? He said to me,

1674
01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:09,920
Speaker 1: he said, it was the horror of your story that

1675
01:35:09,960 --> 01:35:13,040
Speaker 1: connected these women to you. So they could heal. Absolutely,

1676
01:35:13,880 --> 01:35:17,120
Speaker 1: So he let me know, you know that it's my

1677
01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:21,720
Speaker 1: calling to help other people heal. And there's something in that.

1678
01:35:21,840 --> 01:35:24,519
Speaker 1: I was like, well, Lord, can I not teach them

1679
01:35:24,560 --> 01:35:32,240
Speaker 1: nothing else? I was. I was headed into that lad

1680
01:35:32,360 --> 01:35:35,960
Speaker 1: that the Parathi were Sir. I said, Father, that this

1681
01:35:36,120 --> 01:35:40,439
Speaker 1: be the last. Let it be the last. I promise

1682
01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:42,080
Speaker 1: I teach them stuff I don't even.

1683
01:35:41,960 --> 01:35:48,479

Speaker 1: The beauty of the Selena story was that Selena came

1699
01:36:47,720 --> 01:36:50,519
Speaker 1: to me at the same point I was at in

1700
01:36:50,560 --> 01:36:54,520
Speaker 1: the beginning of my journey. She was dealing with fibroids

1701
01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:57,760
Speaker 1: that were causing infertility and she didn't have any other symptoms.

1702
01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:00,760
Speaker 1: That's where I was when I started, and because I

1703
01:37:00,800 --> 01:37:02,920
Speaker 1: didn't have a me in my life, I ended up

1704
01:37:03,439 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 1: The surgery is what precipitated all the damage. It wasn't

1705
01:37:07,080 --> 01:37:12,639
Speaker 1: the fibroids, it was the surgery, right and because of that,

1706
01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:16,040
Speaker 1: because of that change, she didn't have to go down

1707
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:16,479

Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what. I just I want to take

1727
01:38:30,920 --> 01:38:36,840
Speaker 3: a moment to say this because fibroids actually helped me

1728
01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:43,000
Speaker 3: know that. This is my husband, please and so a quick,

1729
01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:48,639
Speaker 3: really personal, intimate story. But I had surgery probably about

1730
01:38:48,680 --> 01:38:53,599
Speaker 3: three months ago to remove a fibroid that was in

1731
01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:55,400
Speaker 3: my and keep me honest here because I don't know

1732
01:38:55,400 --> 01:38:58,400
Speaker 3: the terminology, but that was in my uterus, even though

1733
01:38:58,400 --> 01:39:01,639
Speaker 3: I have multiple when we were dating, the largest one,

1734
01:39:01,680 --> 01:39:03,759
Speaker 3: the large, the largest one, the one that they said

1735
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:08,559
Speaker 3: is in the way of having a child. When we

1736
01:39:08,560 --> 01:39:15,639
Speaker 3: were dating, my fibroids were causing my cycles to be very,

1737
01:39:16,240 --> 01:39:24,040
Speaker 3: very heavy and painful. I came to Dallas and I

1738
01:39:24,160 --> 01:39:30,800
Speaker 3: was so embarrassed because I was going through the products,

1739
01:39:30,880 --> 01:39:32,759
Speaker 3: you know, the tampons the past.

1740
01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:35,560
Speaker 1: I was shaving through them fast.

1741
01:39:35,240 --> 01:39:38,040
Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm here, you know,

1742
01:39:38,400 --> 01:39:43,280
Speaker 3: we are new, Like, how is this whole thing gonna go.

1743
01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:47,360
Speaker 3: How's it gonna work out? I'm super self conscious about it.

1744
01:39:47,439 --> 01:39:47,639
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1745
01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:51,080

01:39:52,800 --> 01:39:55,960
Speaker 3: And before I can make it to the shower, yeah,

1747
01:39:57,760 --> 01:39:59,240

Speaker 3: a lot of these stories because they feel shameful. Yes,

1755
01:40:38,840 --> 01:40:41,840
Speaker 3: but I just wanted to tell the story because it

1756

1761
01:41:02,080 --> 01:41:04,120

Speaker 3: And I was just so much bad and it was

1765
01:41:11,080 --> 01:41:12,160
Speaker 3: it was just bad.

1766
01:41:12,320 --> 01:41:15,080
Speaker 6: And he he was like, girl.

1767
01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:15,400
Speaker 1: That's just.

01:41:20,040 --> 01:41:20,680
Speaker 5: Yeah. I told her.

1769
01:41:20,720 --> 01:41:22,200
Speaker 4: I said, girl, I'm gonna be taking care of you

1770
01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:25,080
Speaker 4: when you get old and gray and I just and

1771
01:41:25,160 --> 01:41:26,400
Speaker 4: I just got on my hands.

1772
01:41:26,160 --> 01:41:28,120
Speaker 5: And knees and scrubbed the floor. It's just it's not

1773
01:41:28,280 --> 01:41:29,200
Speaker 5: that serious to me.

1774
01:41:29,400 --> 01:41:33,559
Speaker 4: It's literally saying you are my wife and I will

1775
01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:36,120
Speaker 4: take care of you. And that's just period. I didn't

1776
01:41:36,120 --> 01:41:38,000
Speaker 4: want to know to feel embarrassed by. I didn't see

1777
01:41:38,040 --> 01:41:41,040
Speaker 4: nothing to be embarrassed. And then it really shocked me

1778
01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:43,320
Speaker 4: when I had a conversation with your dad and you

1779
01:41:43,720 --> 01:41:46,080
Speaker 4: had told your dad and your dad was like he

1780
01:41:46,160 --> 01:41:48,559
Speaker 4: called me, He was like, yeah, man, actually told me

1781
01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:50,120
Speaker 4: what you did. I said, what did I do? You

1782
01:41:50,160 --> 01:41:52,720
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, I thought something bad? They told

1783
01:41:52,720 --> 01:41:54,040
Speaker 4: me what you did? I said, what did I do?

1784
01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:56,280
Speaker 4: He said, you sat there and cleaned the stuff up?

1785
01:41:56,280 --> 01:41:58,599
Speaker 4: I said, oh yeah, he said, you're a real man.

1786
01:41:59,120 --> 01:42:00,800
Speaker 1: I said, oh wow, that's real.

1787
01:42:00,960 --> 01:42:03,599
Speaker 4: I was just like, I mean, it got me teary eyed,

1788
01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:06,759
Speaker 4: but it just bothered me that she was so embarrassed by.

1789
01:42:06,960 --> 01:42:10,360
Speaker 4: And so what I've been trying to do is just

1790
01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:17,240
Speaker 4: study this stuff. I study this stuff. And so when

1791
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:19,760
Speaker 4: she had her fibroid surgery, I was there. I flew

1792
01:42:19,800 --> 01:42:21,200
Speaker 4: out there to make sure I could.

1793
01:42:21,160 --> 01:42:22,240
Speaker 1: Be got to read my book.

01:42:22,439 --> 01:42:24,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, what's that about? What it talks about?

1795
01:42:24,200 --> 01:42:27,320
Speaker 1: And Fireboard's manual and god it literally the reason I'm

1796
01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:31,120
Speaker 1: saying that is because all of the research that's out

1797
01:42:31,160 --> 01:42:34,320
Speaker 1: there I'm so glad that you are willing to read it.

01:44:21,160 --> 01:44:25,280
Speaker 1: many women you just made feel seen? You know how

1838
01:44:25,320 --> 01:44:29,160
Speaker 1: many women this is unfortunately, how many women deal with

1839
01:44:29,200 --> 01:44:33,400
Speaker 1: this every day. I was talking to my husband literally

1840
01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:37,679
Speaker 1: the day before I came. I said, Babe, I never

1841
01:44:37,760 --> 01:44:39,840
Speaker 1: told you how much. I don't know if I said,

1842
01:44:39,880 --> 01:44:42,519
Speaker 1: I don't remember if I told you, But remember that

1843
01:44:42,560 --> 01:44:45,400
Speaker 1: time I bled all over the bmw C and it

1844
01:44:45,439 --> 01:44:48,320
Speaker 1: was nothing. It was coming home from church. Just hemorrhage.

1845
01:44:48,360 --> 01:44:52,440
Speaker 1: I don't just hemorrhage, just flooded. This is the reality

1846
01:44:52,560 --> 01:44:57,000
Speaker 1: of so many women. And here's the deal. We're not

1847
01:44:57,240 --> 01:45:01,320
Speaker 1: told that before it even became pain that heavy, that

1848
01:45:01,479 --> 01:45:06,240
Speaker 1: was a warning sign. We're not told that we're only

1849
01:45:06,439 --> 01:45:12,960
Speaker 1: medically we're only supposed to bleed three to five tablespoons. Tablespoons,

1850
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:18,120
Speaker 1: three to five tablespoons. That is what the National Institute

1851
01:45:18,160 --> 01:45:22,720
Speaker 1: of Health says is a normal period. Wow, but how

1852
01:45:22,720 --> 01:45:26,280
Speaker 1: many doctors say you just bleed heavy? How many doctors

1853
01:45:26,320 --> 01:45:28,040
Speaker 1: just say, oh, you just have a heavy blood flow.

1854
01:45:28,680 --> 01:45:32,960
Speaker 1: So what happens is you normalize that heavy blood flow

1855
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:39,920
Speaker 1: when the body says, oh, as this is not back

1856
01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:43,599
Speaker 1: it up. This is wrong. That's what the body is saying.

1857
01:45:43,960 --> 01:45:50,760
Speaker 1: But because we've normalized heavy bleeding, our body is literally

1858
01:45:51,320 --> 01:45:57,320
Speaker 1: suffering and going down a road where we didn't even realize.

1859
01:45:57,479 --> 01:45:59,559
Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute. I needed to interrupt this a

1860
01:45:59,560 --> 01:46:02,519
Speaker 1: long time ago, just when it looked like it was

1861
01:46:02,720 --> 01:46:06,760
Speaker 1: because I made it. It was normal, changing clothes, going.

1862
01:46:06,520 --> 01:46:08,760
Speaker 5: Through changing by.

1863
01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:14,439
Speaker 1: Wearing diapers. You know how many sisters that's not normal.

1864
01:46:15,160 --> 01:46:19,040
Speaker 1: That's so if you are bleeding and changing your pad

1865
01:46:19,600 --> 01:46:22,320
Speaker 1: every two hours, every three hours.

1866
01:46:23,040 --> 01:46:26,160
Speaker 3: That is not scared to go to sleep. That is

1867
01:46:26,479 --> 01:46:28,160
Speaker 3: because you're scared you're gonna wake up.

1868
01:46:28,479 --> 01:46:31,640
Speaker 1: And that is your body telling you whether or not

1869
01:46:31,760 --> 01:46:34,160
Speaker 1: you have fibroids. It is your body telling you that

1870
01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:41,160
Speaker 1: the root issues of vitamin D deficiency, chronic inflammation, hormonal balance,

1871
01:46:42,320 --> 01:46:47,800
Speaker 1: and stress are driving the bus. And that is the

1872
01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:51,840
Speaker 1: point at which we need to intervene, not watching weight,

1873
01:46:52,439 --> 01:46:58,640
Speaker 1: not after we've suffered so much, right like, that is

1874
01:46:58,680 --> 01:47:02,840
Speaker 1: the point that that's the point. And when we reframe

1875
01:47:02,960 --> 01:47:10,599
Speaker 1: that and we destigmatize, destigmatize saying hey, something's wrong, and

1876
01:47:10,640 --> 01:47:12,680
Speaker 1: when the doctor tells you it's normal, that means that

1877
01:47:12,760 --> 01:47:15,200
Speaker 1: doctor's telling you I'm not the right doctor for you.

1878
01:47:16,000 --> 01:47:19,800
Speaker 1: I have to say, my good friend created a platform

1879
01:47:19,880 --> 01:47:23,920
Speaker 1: called Clinicians who Care, which is a free platform that

1880
01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:30,080
Speaker 1: is created and it's populated with doctors who care. Listen

1881
01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:35,240
Speaker 1: and believe you. They care for Listen to and believe

1882
01:47:35,320 --> 01:47:40,160
Speaker 1: you because that is a rarity, it is right, and

1883
01:47:40,640 --> 01:47:42,439
Speaker 1: all we want you to do. If you're a person

1884
01:47:42,960 --> 01:47:47,000
Speaker 1: who has a good doctor relationship populated, put that doctor's

1885
01:47:47,080 --> 01:47:50,000
Speaker 1: name in that because that'll save somebody else's life. Because

1886
01:47:50,000 --> 01:47:54,519
Speaker 1: someone who says, no, that's not normal, that's not normal,

1887
01:47:54,760 --> 01:47:59,320
Speaker 1: that you're changing your pad every two hours. Stop it. Now,

1888
01:48:00,280 --> 01:48:03,800
Speaker 1: do you want to understand what the revolution? Yeah? Yeah

1889
01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:06,760
Speaker 1: that if I'm now make vitamin D a part of

1890
01:48:06,800 --> 01:48:11,479
Speaker 1: my regular routine, Yeah, that I now can stop. I

1891
01:48:11,520 --> 01:48:15,840
Speaker 1: can help my body before I even what That's why

1892
01:48:15,880 --> 01:48:20,120
Speaker 1: I said, this is information that we're not being armed

1893
01:48:20,120 --> 01:48:25,120
Speaker 1: with because at the doctor level, where you're supposed to trust,

1894
01:48:25,760 --> 01:48:28,400
Speaker 1: what my doctor tells me is what I need to

1895
01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:31,679
Speaker 1: do for my health. Yeah, the doctor's telling you you're

1896
01:48:31,760 --> 01:48:36,360
Speaker 1: just bleeding heavy, or it's just normal, or that's just

1897
01:48:36,640 --> 01:48:40,320
Speaker 1: you know, there's the watch it until it becomes a

1898
01:48:40,360 --> 01:48:41,120
Speaker 1: real problem.

1899
01:48:42,560 --> 01:48:46,519

Speaker 5: Go ahead.

1928
01:50:10,160 --> 01:50:15,960
Speaker 6: So HUSBONDI, what did you think about this episode?

1929
01:50:16,120 --> 01:50:19,080
Speaker 4: I think that this is not just a conversation geared

1930
01:50:19,080 --> 01:50:23,080
Speaker 4: towards women, It's a conversation geared towards everybody. I think

1931
01:50:23,200 --> 01:50:26,639
Speaker 4: men need to do their due diligence and learn the

1932
01:50:26,680 --> 01:50:28,200
Speaker 4: inner workings of.

1933
01:50:28,200 --> 01:50:29,280
Speaker 5: A woman's body.

1934
01:50:30,479 --> 01:50:34,080
Speaker 4: Most men are just fixated on a woman's vagina, but

1935
01:50:34,600 --> 01:50:37,760
Speaker 4: you need to know everything connected to it or whole

1936
01:50:37,760 --> 01:50:42,880
Speaker 4: reproductive system and the the things that she may be

1937
01:50:42,920 --> 01:50:46,840
Speaker 4: struggling with in private. And we need to normalize those

1938
01:50:46,880 --> 01:50:50,680
Speaker 4: conversations in our community. Also gives us more language and

1939
01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:55,160
Speaker 4: understanding on even when we're raising young girls, not to

1940
01:50:55,240 --> 01:50:59,040
Speaker 4: normalize just putting them on birth control. And the first

1941
01:50:59,080 --> 01:51:01,519
Speaker 4: thing they say is when a woman is a young

1942
01:51:01,560 --> 01:51:04,080
Speaker 4: girl is having heavy cycles, they say, well, put you

1943
01:51:04,160 --> 01:51:07,120
Speaker 4: on birth control the solveet. And so they make birth

1944
01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:13,599
Speaker 4: control the solution when it's just masking the real symptoms

1945
01:51:13,600 --> 01:51:15,320
Speaker 4: and the real issues, and so.

1946
01:51:16,040 --> 01:51:18,960
Speaker 3: Its creating more problem, creating more problems down the line.

1947
01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:19,760
Speaker 5: Absolutely.

1948
01:51:20,080 --> 01:51:21,800
Speaker 4: And so when I think about all this and I

1949
01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:26,920
Speaker 4: think about our Luteria, you know, she just gave birth

1950
01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:32,200
Speaker 4: to our angel baby, yeah, six months or Claire, and

1951
01:51:32,400 --> 01:51:34,880
Speaker 4: at this time of this air and it'd be seven months.

1952
01:51:34,880 --> 01:51:35,040
Speaker 10: But.

1953
01:51:36,680 --> 01:51:41,880
Speaker 4: She she had a big dermoid cyst in her body

1954
01:51:42,040 --> 01:51:45,519
Speaker 4: that was five pounds, six pounds or something crazy it was.

1955
01:51:45,560 --> 01:51:49,120
Speaker 4: It was huge, and I didn't know anything about a

1956
01:51:49,200 --> 01:51:54,640
Speaker 4: dermoid cist. A dermoid cyst can grow teeth and hair teeth, yes, yes,

1957
01:51:55,120 --> 01:51:57,040
Speaker 4: all that scary thing and I was like, this was

1958
01:51:57,040 --> 01:51:59,040
Speaker 4: inside your body and she kept trying to lose weight

1959
01:51:59,080 --> 01:52:02,600
Speaker 4: and lose weight and it's just sitting there and she

1960
01:52:02,680 --> 01:52:04,799
Speaker 4: was like, what is going on? And then the doctors

1961
01:52:04,800 --> 01:52:07,880
Speaker 4: didn't didn't dis be cool and we're just gonna get

1962
01:52:07,880 --> 01:52:11,080
Speaker 4: this little this little uh, this little sister. At first

1963
01:52:11,120 --> 01:52:12,759
Speaker 4: they thought it was like a little tumor or something,

1964
01:52:13,160 --> 01:52:15,160
Speaker 4: and then they go in to do surgery and find

1965
01:52:15,160 --> 01:52:19,120
Speaker 4: out this this whole thing and ended up getting pregnant.

1966
01:52:19,160 --> 01:52:20,920
Speaker 4: She'll come on and share a story, which she's very

1967
01:52:20,960 --> 01:52:25,600
Speaker 4: vocal about on social media, but praise God that a

1968
01:52:25,720 --> 01:52:27,639
Speaker 4: couple of years later she was able to give birth

1969
01:52:27,760 --> 01:52:31,320
Speaker 4: to you know, my first granddaughter.

1970
01:52:32,400 --> 01:52:32,799
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1971
01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:36,599
Speaker 4: And what's so interesting about it, it was that what

1972
01:52:36,640 --> 01:52:38,559
Speaker 4: was the week's where she was at where they said,

1973
01:52:38,600 --> 01:52:42,000
Speaker 4: if she can just stay uh, if she gives birth

1974
01:52:42,080 --> 01:52:44,720
Speaker 4: right now, she's gonna struggle with she may have pre

1975
01:52:44,800 --> 01:52:50,360
Speaker 4: and clamcy for for lataria. And they said, if she

1976
01:52:50,400 --> 01:52:53,160
Speaker 4: gets past the it was like a few days that

1977
01:52:53,280 --> 01:52:55,280
Speaker 4: she had to be in the hospital to pass that.

1978
01:52:55,920 --> 01:52:57,599
Speaker 5: You know, was that thirty weeks or what is what

1979
01:52:57,680 --> 01:52:57,880
Speaker 5: is that?

1980
01:52:58,240 --> 01:53:02,240
Speaker 1: Well, thank god co that can take people out.

1981
01:53:02,160 --> 01:53:03,519
Speaker 5: Absolutely, And they were saying that.

1982
01:53:03,520 --> 01:53:05,280
Speaker 4: So she was scared and so we went to the

1983
01:53:05,280 --> 01:53:07,680
Speaker 4: hospital we were praying for and praying for and she

1984
01:53:07,800 --> 01:53:11,240
Speaker 4: finally got past that that that that dangers on and

1985
01:53:11,280 --> 01:53:11,599
Speaker 4: then the.

1986
01:53:11,560 --> 01:53:12,920
Speaker 5: Next day she had Claire.

1987
01:53:13,960 --> 01:53:14,559
Speaker 1: That's a miracle.

1988
01:53:15,160 --> 01:53:17,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was like first they thought she's gonna be

1989
01:53:17,320 --> 01:53:20,040
Speaker 4: in the nick you for a long time. To God

1990
01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:22,599
Speaker 4: said no, I have the final say didn't even happen.

1991
01:53:23,200 --> 01:53:24,519
Speaker 5: Came home a couple of days later.

1992
01:53:24,920 --> 01:53:27,280
Speaker 4: So it was just it was just such a beautiful

1993
01:53:27,400 --> 01:53:31,519
Speaker 4: It was such a beautiful thing. So yeah, and my

1994
01:53:31,640 --> 01:53:34,000
Speaker 4: thing to you, Ashley, there's nothing that you will go

1995
01:53:34,080 --> 01:53:36,200
Speaker 4: through that I'm not gonna be. I'm gonna have a

1996
01:53:36,200 --> 01:53:39,439
Speaker 4: front row seat, and not just a front row seat,

1997
01:53:39,520 --> 01:53:44,679
Speaker 4: but I'm gonna be like studying everything advocate. I belive

1998
01:53:44,760 --> 01:53:46,320
Speaker 4: me tell you, I'm hey, listen what y'all doing?

1999
01:53:46,360 --> 01:53:46,439
Speaker 7: Now?

2000
01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:47,040
Speaker 5: You don't need that.

2001
01:53:47,080 --> 01:53:48,960
Speaker 4: We need to do this this, you know, because I

2002
01:53:49,000 --> 01:53:49,639
Speaker 4: know if I don't.

2003
01:53:49,520 --> 01:53:50,880
Speaker 5: Do it, you'll do. Your mom gonna do it.

2004
01:53:51,080 --> 01:53:54,559
Speaker 4: Because when she when she went to surgery, uh, that

2005
01:53:54,640 --> 01:53:56,960
Speaker 4: was literally the month before we got married. Wow, and

2006
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:00,960
Speaker 4: her mom was like, yeah, this is a whole different thing.

2007
01:54:01,040 --> 01:54:04,439
Speaker 4: So we'll probably bring the stress. The doctors out.

2008
01:54:05,400 --> 01:54:07,840
Speaker 1: But you know, I love that, you know you said

2009
01:54:07,840 --> 01:54:11,080
Speaker 1: the advocacy piece, because that's a whole other thing that's

2010
01:54:11,320 --> 01:54:14,120
Speaker 1: really passionate about, is the fact that medical bias is real.

2011
01:54:14,360 --> 01:54:16,960
Speaker 1: Yes it is, and we always, because of that, need

2012
01:54:17,040 --> 01:54:21,400
Speaker 1: to have an advocate. Period. So whether it's your husband,

2013
01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:24,880
Speaker 1: you're somebody who's in the medical world, somebody who will

2014
01:54:24,880 --> 01:54:28,280
Speaker 1: not take you know, who won't stop asking the hard questions.

2015
01:54:28,400 --> 01:54:33,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, always, Well my mother handled medical malpractice claims her,

2016
01:54:34,120 --> 01:54:37,760
Speaker 3: you know, throughout her whole career, and so I just

2017
01:54:37,840 --> 01:54:41,280
Speaker 3: want to reinforce what you said is that when you

2018
01:54:41,320 --> 01:54:45,720
Speaker 3: don't ask questions, then you don't always get help, and

2019
01:54:46,040 --> 01:54:48,440
Speaker 3: sometimes you don't know what to ask. But you need

2020
01:54:48,480 --> 01:54:52,280
Speaker 3: to do research and you need to keep fighting for

2021
01:54:52,320 --> 01:54:55,280
Speaker 3: yourself because sometimes I think that we as a people,

2022
01:54:55,840 --> 01:54:58,200
Speaker 3: we just believe that because you have a coat on

2023
01:54:58,640 --> 01:55:01,480
Speaker 3: or the word doctor in front of your name, that

2024
01:55:01,560 --> 01:55:05,520
Speaker 3: you know best, that's the time to ask questions at

2025
01:55:05,520 --> 01:55:06,000
Speaker 3: the doctor.

2026
01:55:06,160 --> 01:55:08,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. Actually, if I can share something around that, that's

2027
01:55:08,720 --> 01:55:13,800
Speaker 1: really important. So you know, I didn't share the part

2028
01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:16,200
Speaker 1: that I dealt with a lot of medical bias and

2029
01:55:16,280 --> 01:55:19,680
Speaker 1: racism right where, you know, when I was diagnosed with

2030
01:55:19,720 --> 01:55:22,080
Speaker 1: that aneurysm. The doctor told me, oh, I can fit

2031
01:55:22,200 --> 01:55:24,760
Speaker 1: you in my calendar eight days from now, and they

2032
01:55:24,800 --> 01:55:27,160
Speaker 1: tried to send me home, right, And it's a whole

2033
01:55:27,200 --> 01:55:28,920
Speaker 1: whole bunch of other things. But I learn on the

2034
01:55:29,040 --> 01:55:34,160
Speaker 1: journey that there's some specific questions. Number one is if

2035
01:55:34,200 --> 01:55:38,000
Speaker 1: you go to the doctor and they're saying to you that,

2036
01:55:39,840 --> 01:55:42,320
Speaker 1: I'll give you an example. You know that you're dealing

2037
01:55:42,360 --> 01:55:46,760
Speaker 1: with the pain and they just treat it topically, right,

2038
01:55:47,760 --> 01:55:52,160
Speaker 1: it's important to ask them what is your differentials diagnosis?

2039
01:55:52,920 --> 01:55:57,600
Speaker 1: And what evidence do you have that it's not these things? Right?

2040
01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:00,960
Speaker 1: So to tell you what that means diagnosis is what

2041
01:56:01,080 --> 01:56:04,480
Speaker 1: else can it be? Because if you don't ask the

2042
01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:08,240
Speaker 1: doctor that they're not required to do that. They should,

2043
01:56:08,800 --> 01:56:11,760
Speaker 1: but they're not required to do so what is your

2044
01:56:11,800 --> 01:56:16,520
Speaker 1: differential diagnosis? So, for instance, okay, this pain on my side,

2045
01:56:17,160 --> 01:56:19,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you very very real example, my own example. Right,

2046
01:56:20,200 --> 01:56:21,920
Speaker 1: I went to the doctor. I was having a pain

2047
01:56:22,040 --> 01:56:24,760
Speaker 1: right here, flank on my side. I remember the kidney

2048
01:56:24,760 --> 01:56:30,760
Speaker 1: disease that's here. I knew it could be a ruptured cyst, right,

2049
01:56:30,800 --> 01:56:33,360
Speaker 1: because they're the kidney disease disease I have is called

2050
01:56:33,360 --> 01:56:38,240
Speaker 1: polycystic kidney disease. So they are hundreds, like multiple hundred

2051
01:56:38,280 --> 01:56:45,720
Speaker 1: cysts all over my kidneys. Okay, and the kidneys get large,

2052
01:56:46,320 --> 01:56:50,160
Speaker 1: very large, right, like they're My waist was much smaller,

2053
01:56:50,200 --> 01:56:52,960
Speaker 1: but it's bigger because of the kidneys. Okay. There's nothing

2054
01:56:52,960 --> 01:56:54,880
Speaker 1: I can do. I can't lose weight or nothing like that.

2055
01:56:55,160 --> 01:56:57,280
Speaker 1: But praise God, I got healthy kidneys because I'm here,

2056
01:56:57,480 --> 01:57:01,840
Speaker 1: and I thank you God that my kidneys are still functioning. Period.

2057
01:57:02,280 --> 01:57:04,720
Speaker 1: So I went to the doctor because the pain was

2058
01:57:04,880 --> 01:57:07,200
Speaker 1: so bad. I went to the er. They said, well,

2059
01:57:07,400 --> 01:57:09,640
Speaker 1: I said, so what else could it be? They tested

2060
01:57:09,680 --> 01:57:11,879
Speaker 1: it to make sure it wasn't a small boo obstruction

2061
01:57:12,320 --> 01:57:15,160
Speaker 1: because of my history, it could be a it could

2062
01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:18,600
Speaker 1: be an obstruction that developed, right, So they did a

2063
01:57:18,640 --> 01:57:22,520
Speaker 1: CT scan, an abdominal CT scan. They did blood work

2064
01:57:22,560 --> 01:57:25,080
Speaker 1: to confirm it wasn't a blood clot because it could

2065
01:57:25,160 --> 01:57:28,240
Speaker 1: be a blood clot right in my lung because of

2066
01:57:28,280 --> 01:57:31,960
Speaker 1: where it was in this area. Right, They made sure

2067
01:57:32,000 --> 01:57:35,680
Speaker 1: it wasn't. So they ruled out the worst things it

2068
01:57:35,720 --> 01:57:39,560
Speaker 1: could be. Then there was like, because it's not these things,

2069
01:57:40,160 --> 01:57:43,360
Speaker 1: we have to assume that it is a ruptured cyst.

2070
01:57:43,720 --> 01:57:45,880
Speaker 1: You will know in a week to two weeks, if

2071
01:57:45,880 --> 01:57:47,800
Speaker 1: the pain goes away, you'll know that it was a

2072
01:57:47,840 --> 01:57:51,680
Speaker 1: ruptured cyst all right. Now, if I didn't know the

2073
01:57:51,720 --> 01:57:53,960
Speaker 1: things that I know, they could have just given me

2074
01:57:54,000 --> 01:57:58,480
Speaker 1: a pain killer and sent me home. Okay, But if

2075
01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:02,280
Speaker 1: you don't ask what the differential diagnosis, they could be like, well,

2076
01:58:02,280 --> 01:58:04,040
Speaker 1: they're going to give you the lowest hanging fruit of

2077
01:58:04,040 --> 01:58:06,200
Speaker 1: what it is versus. But you didn't test me to

2078
01:58:06,240 --> 01:58:10,280
Speaker 1: make sure it wasn't the monster in the room, right right,

2079
01:58:11,240 --> 01:58:13,680
Speaker 1: you have to rule out So the second question, which

2080
01:58:13,720 --> 01:58:17,600
Speaker 1: is what evidence do you have that it is not cancer?

2081
01:58:17,640 --> 01:58:22,000
Speaker 1: Because differential it could be cancer differential diagnosis. It could

2082
01:58:22,000 --> 01:58:25,120
Speaker 1: be a ruptressist differential diagnosis. It could be a small

2083
01:58:25,160 --> 01:58:27,720
Speaker 1: bo obstruction. So how are you going to get evidence

2084
01:58:27,720 --> 01:58:29,840
Speaker 1: that it's not those things? You're going to do the test. Now,

2085
01:58:29,960 --> 01:58:36,040
Speaker 1: you're required to do the tests to rule out those things, right, Yeah,

2086
01:58:36,120 --> 01:58:38,560
Speaker 1: So that is your right. Yeah, that's a patient.

2087
01:58:38,680 --> 01:58:42,080
Speaker 3: And I will say my grandfather he told the doctor,

2088
01:58:42,240 --> 01:58:46,040
Speaker 3: he said, Doc, I got cancer. I'm losing weight like

2089
01:58:46,120 --> 01:58:48,640
Speaker 3: I can't keep that, like I have cancer. The doctor said,

2090
01:58:48,960 --> 01:58:51,960
Speaker 3: you don't have cancer. See that, you know, my grandpa

2091
01:58:52,000 --> 01:58:54,800
Speaker 3: got so weak he fell down, he couldn't get up,

2092
01:58:55,880 --> 01:58:59,520
Speaker 3: was went to the doctor, was diagnosed with stage four

2093
01:58:59,640 --> 01:59:04,160
Speaker 3: or at that terminal cancer and lived about a month longer.

2094
01:59:04,720 --> 01:59:08,520
Speaker 3: So when I say you are telling the truth, we

2095
01:59:08,600 --> 01:59:11,600
Speaker 3: know our bodies. We need to listen to our bodies,

2096
01:59:11,600 --> 01:59:13,800
Speaker 3: and we have to advocate for ourselves.

2097
01:59:14,040 --> 01:59:18,120
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I say, when you go into the doctor's office,

2098
01:59:18,160 --> 01:59:21,480
Speaker 1: there are two experts in the room. There's the doctor

2099
01:59:21,520 --> 01:59:24,440
Speaker 1: who's the expert in their field, but there's you who's

2100
01:59:24,480 --> 01:59:28,920
Speaker 1: the expert on you. And never listen to a doctor

2101
01:59:29,000 --> 01:59:33,200
Speaker 1: that won't that devalues your expertise because you're the very

2102
01:59:33,520 --> 01:59:38,720
Speaker 1: first source of information they have. You are the person

2103
01:59:38,760 --> 01:59:40,360
Speaker 1: they need to listen to the most. So if they

2104
01:59:40,400 --> 01:59:43,400
Speaker 1: devalue your voice, that means they can't be your doctor.

2105
01:59:43,960 --> 01:59:45,680
Speaker 1: And you will say, excuse me, I feel like I'm

2106
01:59:45,720 --> 01:59:48,240
Speaker 1: being discriminated against. I'm being devalued. I'd want to see

2107
01:59:48,280 --> 01:59:52,160
Speaker 1: another doctor. Facts, Yes, it'll save your life.

2108
01:59:52,920 --> 01:59:53,880
Speaker 5: What you got them all right?

2109
01:59:56,280 --> 02:00:02,200
Speaker 1: My key to love is relentless passion for loving yourself

2110
02:00:02,320 --> 02:00:08,200
Speaker 1: as Christ loves you and growing into the character of Christ.

2111
02:00:08,920 --> 02:00:09,680
Speaker 5: What does that mean?

2112
02:00:10,440 --> 02:00:17,360
Speaker 1: So when you the way, remember Jesus said love the

2113
02:00:17,400 --> 02:00:19,400
Speaker 1: Lord your God with all your heart, soul, so and

2114
02:00:19,400 --> 02:00:23,200
Speaker 1: strength right, and love your neighbor as yourself. I can

2115
02:00:23,280 --> 02:00:28,400
Speaker 1: only love you as as healthily as I love myself,

2116
02:00:28,720 --> 02:00:31,880
Speaker 1: and I can only become as healthy as I passionately

2117
02:00:31,920 --> 02:00:32,640
Speaker 1: pursue growth.

2118
02:00:33,480 --> 02:00:37,280
Speaker 5: Mm hmm, that's good. We'll go ahead and hang it up.

2119
02:00:37,320 --> 02:00:39,120
Speaker 1: Can hang it up? Hang it up?

2120
02:00:40,000 --> 02:00:42,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you put the market back in there and hang

2121

2125
02:00:57,120 --> 02:00:58,160
Speaker 4: very very necessary.

2126
02:00:58,280 --> 02:00:59,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, he just does what he does better.

2127
02:01:00,440 --> 02:01:05,640

Speaker 6: May it carry you through the days when words are

2130
02:01:10,080 --> 02:01:12,560
Speaker 6: few and faith has to do the talking.

2131
02:01:13,040 --> 02:01:16,280
Speaker 4: Y'all give it up for my homie coach Jesse.

2132

Speaker 4: ever been adopted?

2140
02:01:46,600 --> 02:01:46,840
Speaker 5: Yep?

2141
02:01:46,880 --> 02:01:52,040
Speaker 4: You guessed it slim to none. While Ladarian and Ourmiani

2142
02:01:52,120 --> 02:01:55,160
Speaker 4: were trying to survive and barely thrive in an overpopulated

2143
02:01:55,200 --> 02:01:58,360
Speaker 4: and underfunded Falster care system, I was living my own life,

2144
02:01:58,400 --> 02:02:01,480
Speaker 4: doing well professionally, having been a single father with a

2145
02:02:01,600 --> 02:02:04,040
Speaker 4: daughter who at that point was doing well in college.

2146
02:02:04,360 --> 02:02:06,880
Speaker 4: It was my time to live my life right.

2147
02:02:07,080 --> 02:02:07,400
Speaker 11: Wrong.

2148
02:02:08,440 --> 02:02:14,280
Speaker 4: I felt unsettled, tireless, agitated. There are just two many

2149
02:02:14,440 --> 02:02:17,920
Speaker 4: of our black children stuck in ambiguity and in the

2150
02:02:17,960 --> 02:02:21,360
Speaker 4: limbo of the Falseter care system. In twenty seventeen, I

2151
02:02:21,440 --> 02:02:25,360
Speaker 4: legally adopted my nephew Ladarian. Fast forward to twenty nineteen.

2152
02:02:25,400 --> 02:02:27,600
Speaker 4: I had no ties to this other young king, but

2153
02:02:27,640 --> 02:02:30,680
Speaker 4: I felt God instructed me to adopt them also on albate.

2154
02:02:31,640 --> 02:02:34,680
Speaker 4: Starting over with parentings should have been enough. Right, Working

2155
02:02:34,720 --> 02:02:37,400
Speaker 4: with various foster care and adoption agencies to help bring

2156
02:02:37,400 --> 02:02:40,640
Speaker 4: awareness to the countless young Black Kings and the Falster

2157
02:02:40,680 --> 02:02:44,880
Speaker 4: care system should have decreased my agitation. Right joined the

2158
02:02:44,920 --> 02:02:48,280
Speaker 4: board of directors of Advantage Adoption and organization that helps

2159
02:02:48,320 --> 02:02:51,760
Speaker 4: find permanent adoptive homes for children in false care should

2160
02:02:51,760 --> 02:02:53,360
Speaker 4: have led to some type of resolve.

2161
02:02:53,480 --> 02:02:53,680
Speaker 5: Right.

2162
02:02:54,040 --> 02:02:58,160
Speaker 4: No, not at all. None of it felt like I

2163
02:02:58,200 --> 02:03:02,760
Speaker 4: had done enough. I now realize that every one of

2164
02:03:02,800 --> 02:03:06,960
Speaker 4: those experiences was land the fundamental foundation for my life's mission.

2165
02:03:07,880 --> 02:03:11,920
Speaker 4: Kingdom Royal. Kingdom Royal would be a luxury, state of

2166
02:03:11,960 --> 02:03:15,360
Speaker 4: the art home for foster boys. Our first location will

2167
02:03:15,400 --> 02:03:18,200
Speaker 4: be in the Dallas Fortward Metroplex. We will utilize the

2168
02:03:18,280 --> 02:03:22,600
Speaker 4: whole person approach that instills identity, empowers them to advocate

2169
02:03:22,600 --> 02:03:26,880
Speaker 4: for themselves, and enlightens them regarding new perspectives and limitless

2170
02:03:26,920 --> 02:03:31,840
Speaker 4: options that they thought were impossible. Though the young Kings

2171
02:03:31,840 --> 02:03:34,760
Speaker 4: will attend the local public schools that are in proximity

2172
02:03:34,760 --> 02:03:38,320
Speaker 4: to Kingdom Royal. Our at home curriculum will broaden their

2173
02:03:38,360 --> 02:03:42,400
Speaker 4: worldview through participating in the arts, attending various cultural events,

2174
02:03:42,600 --> 02:03:46,960
Speaker 4: learning about and engaging in multifaceted discussions about current events

2175
02:03:47,080 --> 02:03:51,920
Speaker 4: and even relevant historical contexts, introducing them to gardening and landscaping,

2176
02:03:52,000 --> 02:03:55,280
Speaker 4: and even caring for our animals on our form and

2177
02:03:55,400 --> 02:03:59,800
Speaker 4: on site stables. We just launched our startup capital campaign

2178
02:04:00,080 --> 02:04:02,160
Speaker 4: with the goal of raising two point eight million dollars.

2179
02:04:02,200 --> 02:04:03,680
Speaker 4: Now why two point eight million dollars?

2180
02:04:04,480 --> 02:04:04,680
Speaker 5: Well?

2181
02:04:04,680 --> 02:04:07,040
Speaker 4: In twenty seventeen, I created a web series in which

2182
02:04:07,080 --> 02:04:11,040
Speaker 4: I performed random acts of kindness for targeting the homeless community.

2183
02:04:11,240 --> 02:04:13,520
Speaker 4: One of the most notable successes was that one of

2184
02:04:13,560 --> 02:04:18,800
Speaker 4: the videos went viral, garnering twenty eight million views. However,

2185
02:04:19,160 --> 02:04:21,360
Speaker 4: one of my biggest regrets is that I didn't raise

2186
02:04:21,360 --> 02:04:24,760
Speaker 4: a single dollar to help in implementing a more sustainable

2187
02:04:24,760 --> 02:04:29,000
Speaker 4: plan for the homeless community. So throughout the years, with

2188
02:04:29,120 --> 02:04:32,640
Speaker 4: much remorse, I reflect that I'm not maximizing that moment.

2189
02:04:32,720 --> 02:04:35,680
Speaker 4: I knew if at that time just ten percent of

2190
02:04:35,680 --> 02:04:38,560
Speaker 4: the viewers donated one dollar, we would have raised at

2191
02:04:38,640 --> 02:04:42,160
Speaker 4: least two point eight million dollars that could have really

2192
02:04:42,240 --> 02:04:45,240
Speaker 4: established long term support for the homeless community, or at

2193
02:04:45,320 --> 02:04:49,320
Speaker 4: least started a long term initiative to do so. This

2194
02:04:49,960 --> 02:04:53,800
Speaker 4: is my do over, This is our new beginning. Together,

2195
02:04:54,080 --> 02:04:57,400
Speaker 4: we can attack this at the root by specifically helping

2196
02:04:57,520 --> 02:05:02,400
Speaker 4: our homeless Black boys who are already disproportionately represented in

2197
02:05:02,440 --> 02:05:06,080
Speaker 4: the American fossil care system. I'm the terisar Wwiickfield. I've

2198
02:05:06,120 --> 02:05:09,440
Speaker 4: been nominated for three regional Emmys documenting my work with

2199
02:05:09,520 --> 02:05:13,320
Speaker 4: the homeless as well as my personal adoption journey. Despite

2200
02:05:13,320 --> 02:05:18,000
Speaker 4: those accolades, the greatest award for me is truly providing
