1 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: I want to talk about hyperfixation and being the giving tree. 2 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: So I'm first going to talk about hyperfixation, which I 3 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:25,239 Speaker 1: think I'm accurately describing. But basically, if someone asks me 4 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: something or gives me a task, I am not capable 5 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: of doing anything until the task is finished. So let 6 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: me explain. It could be something that seems small. It 7 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: could be that I know I need black sequin leggings. Okay. 8 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: It could be that my friend said to me she 9 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: needed a dress for her daughter's wedding, and I hyper 10 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: fixate on this task and I go onto different websites, 11 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: which sometimes can be forty pages of dresses, and I 12 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: end up looking up every single dress and gown that 13 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: we would be perfect, and sending her every single link, 14 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: and until I feel like I've exhausted every single option, 15 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: I'm not done. So it's not even that I'm like 16 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: the most generous or giving person. I mean, although it 17 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: might be perceived that way, it's a hyperfixation. It's like 18 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: I just I see tunnel vision, I have to finish, 19 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: and I keep going until it's over. Because it's also 20 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: a little obsessive. So if I have to organize a 21 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: kitchen or a drawer or a closet or put things 22 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: away or unpack or put away groceries or anything. I 23 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: can't stop until the task is finished, so I kind 24 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: of can't see things that need to be done because 25 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: if I see things that need to be done and 26 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: need to do them, so, yes, it's a probably it's 27 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: a version of OCD, and no, I'm not a medication 28 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: for it. So if someone if I that's why with 29 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: my partner in relief work, if I get into something, 30 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: so I'll call him and I'll say, Okay, I am 31 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: really heartbroken over the Ppe situation during the pandemic, or 32 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: what's going on in Ukraine or what's going on in 33 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico or something going on. He will get activated 34 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: and he'll get excited because he has his own version 35 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: of like addiction, you know, to the cause, and so 36 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: he'll get all worked up. But then I'll have to 37 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: control it because I'll have flipped the switch on and 38 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: I'll have to say to him, but like, we have 39 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: to do this to a certain point. But then I 40 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: have to extricate because I used to not control myself. 41 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: And by the way, years ago, I used to produce 42 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: events and I was the best at producing events. I 43 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,839 Speaker 1: was the best at the p and L the best 44 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: at the budget. Why because I didn't miss a single detail, 45 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: because every single floral chair, everything was put back the 46 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: way that it was. There was no waste, every single 47 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: food item, every I just was, you know, obsessive, and 48 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: it wasn't good for me, but I was good for it, 49 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: So I was excellent at it. So I am excellent 50 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: at relief work because I am thorough, I am organized, 51 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: I am efficient. I execute and I don't stop until 52 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: it's done. But it's not good for me because I 53 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: won't be sleeping at night. And when I first started 54 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: out and we were doing Hurricane Maria, I was up 55 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: all night on every chat room, fixated, focused, and I 56 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: have to finish. So if someone asks me to help 57 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: them with something, it could be designing their house, it 58 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: could be helping them get a job. It could be 59 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: choosing a wardrobe. It could be setting them up with someone. 60 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: It could be finding a chef for a party, or 61 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: I'm finding a chef for my own party, or I 62 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: need a specific food truck. It could be any or makeup. 63 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: That's what happened in the beginning of the beauty journey 64 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: because I was fixated on every single product, so be 65 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: cream blush, the best cream blush, cream, bronzer, this powder, 66 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: this eyelash curler, and I have to control myself. And 67 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: the CMO of Beam Global, the company that ended up 68 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: buying the Skinny Girl cocktails, he called me an idea 69 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: hamster because once I got on emails with someone and 70 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: I'm telling them an idea for a show, for a name, 71 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: for a product, for anything, I hyper fixate. And so 72 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: everyone who knows me knows I'm like a machine and 73 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: I like gang, you know, would just like fire off ideas. 74 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: And that's why I was kind of good at reality 75 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: TV too, because I'd have twenty five ideas for each 76 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: scene and for what we were doing. And so anyway, 77 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: it can translate into doing too much and giving too much, 78 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: because if you don't get back, which is impossible to 79 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: get back at this kind of a clip, you feel 80 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 1: like the giving tree and you feel like you're not 81 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: someone's not meeting you halfway, and you can't force them 82 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: to meet you halfway because no one is a machine 83 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: like you. So what you have to do is you 84 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: have to force yourself to stop giving and doing because 85 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: if someone asks you for something, You're just going to 86 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: do it. That's who you are. So if your friend 87 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: asks you one question about a wedding dress, you're going 88 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: to go off and give them fifty five wedding dresses 89 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: and you're overshooting the mark. So it's kind of like 90 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: someone you know. And this could happen in relationships in French, 91 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: where you have to know your limitations and not expect 92 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: someone else to do at the same rate as you do, 93 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: but also not to overdo, and also not to set 94 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: yourself up for situations like this. I've created a situation 95 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: where as an accidental influencer, stuff is constantly coming to 96 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: my house, so I have to look at it, I 97 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: have to review it, and I keep trying to tell 98 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: people not to send it. But people are also addicted 99 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: to me reviewing products, so I keep getting things and 100 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: they want a good review, and so I'm also trying 101 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: to not get things because if I see that it's here, 102 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to look at it and open it. 103 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: And this is also extremely obsessive. I'm well aware. We 104 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: don't have to criticize me. You't have to tell me. 105 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: You enough to tell me. I need to seek help. 106 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: I talk to someone like it's a situation. But I 107 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: definitely have to intervene in my own habits because otherwise 108 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: I become the giving tree and I feel depleted, and 109 00:05:50,040 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: it's honestly my fault. Now, let's talk about that the 110 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: post that I did not know was going to break 111 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: the Internet, that I just posted the fireplace post with 112 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: a heated throw and a guy. Sometimes I forget the 113 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: pockets that different social media. This is why magazines. Another 114 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: archaic form is magazines. Magazines. When you sat in the 115 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: nail salon and looked at a glossy magazine as someone 116 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: on the cover, it's like, who cares? You know? I 117 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,919 Speaker 1: don't do morning TV shows anymore. It means I have 118 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: to leave my house, take a shower, get glam, go somewhere. 119 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: For what. I have my own TV show, it's my 120 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: own phone. It's archaic. So I forget that because if 121 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: I want to talk about something, I want to announce something. 122 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: Remember when like Beyonce dropped her album herself on iTunes, 123 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: like she wasn't going through the dog and Pony show 124 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: of like a label or any of that shit. It's like, 125 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: I've got my own music. I did it, I'm dropping it. Remember, 126 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: when like Taylor Swift took back her own fucking content 127 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: because the Scooter Braun debacle. It's called like you're your 128 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: own content, your own podcast, you can self publish, you 129 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: could do whatever you want. So I was just I 130 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 1: just wanted to eat. I like TikTok is a creative 131 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: for me. It's like a garage band. So I'm just 132 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: sitting there like Wan liking that song and it like 133 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: just I saw him sitting by the fireplace making a 134 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: fire and it just like was like, em my man, 135 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: thank you for my man. It's a sound on TikTok. 136 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: It just I just posted in two seconds and there 137 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: are articles about it, and it's like everybody has to 138 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: make it into something like now all of a sudden, 139 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm like getting married, I'm registering for China. And this 140 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: is what happens with relationships where everyone makes it into 141 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: something like I genuinely if I don't post someone's face 142 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: or say anything, it's not a hard launch, Like it 143 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 1: was just a fun post. What if it was just 144 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: it could have literally been a one night stand that 145 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: a guy had a heated throw that he got me, 146 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: you know, like it wasn't. But the point is like 147 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: everyone's so crazy and starving, and they want to bring 148 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: you up and then take you down. You know, like 149 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: like you're supposed to want your own privacy, but you 150 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: have to share with everybody exactly what's going on and 151 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: what you're doing. And they are so loving and they 152 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: glamorize your relationship into perfection and the romance and like 153 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: a man making me a fire and buying me a blanket, 154 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: it's as if he bought me an island and you know, 155 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: a canary diamond. And everybody's got like these fantasies going 156 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: on in their mind about what it is. And then 157 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, people want to take you on the ride, 158 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: and if something doesn't work out, then everyone wants it 159 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,079 Speaker 1: to crash and burn, and like everyone gets dragged along. 160 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: They've got to do the greatest hits of all my 161 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: relationships and talk about my daughter. And it's just like 162 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: and yet it's hard to stay private. I'll tell you 163 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: why it's hard to stay private. It's hard to stay 164 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: private because let's say, go to a restaurant with someone 165 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: that I like. So let's say in the beginning, I'm 166 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: cautious and I don't want someone to be public at 167 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: all because I just don't want this to defy me, 168 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: and I don't want this to be a soft launch, 169 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: a lukewarm launch, or any launch. I'm just out with somebody. 170 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: But let's say I get paparazzi, then it's out there. 171 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: Now there's twenty seven articles. I mean, there are people 172 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: who have been scene for one night. Literally. It's how 173 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian started her fame. She was at I heard 174 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 1: the story because I know the people that were there. 175 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: She was out and she stood next to Nicolache and 176 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: she got photographed and it went everywhere, and she just 177 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: kept like raising her public stock that she wasn't really 178 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: with him, you know, like maybe she went out with 179 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: him once, But if you're out with someone once, it 180 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: could become like a fantasy that everyone thinks you guys 181 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: are in a mad, crazy relationship. So you want us 182 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: sort of be careful. But let's say go to dinner 183 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: with someone and we got paparazzi. Then they look them up, 184 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: they find out who it is, and we're off to 185 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: the races. And the relationship might not be ready for 186 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: that because that person may get gunshy and scared, and 187 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 1: you know, let's say you're just on your first date, 188 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: and then other people don't want to date you because 189 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: they're reading that you're out and you're like in a 190 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: serious relationship. So let's say you go on a couple 191 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:47,599 Speaker 1: of dates. Let's say you like someone. Let's say you 192 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: sleep with someone. Let's say they could be the one. 193 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:51,719 Speaker 1: You have no idea. It's a month and they could 194 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: be the one, they could be the not one. It's 195 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: a month. Then you've been photographed. You're trying to get 196 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: through that. Now you know, maybe they don't want put 197 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: pr they don't want it at all. They like you, 198 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: they're interested in you. They don't want a public persona. 199 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: Maybe their family doesn't want that. Maybe it's not good 200 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: for their business. Maybe they have you know, they work 201 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: in a private field. Okay. And then you're out to 202 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: dinner and you're out with a bunch of people and 203 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: you're out let's say REOs, or you're out at Carbone 204 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: and you're taking pictures. You're like excluding them. You're taking 205 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: pictures because you're living your life and like there, or 206 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: you all take a group picture. Someone says you want 207 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: to get a group picture. Then you want to post 208 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: it because you just want to be like I was 209 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: at REO's or I was somewhere, and you're excluding this 210 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: person because you've decided. You've said to yourself, I don't 211 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: want this to be a public thing yet. And by 212 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: the way, this can apply to the cul de sac 213 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: I always talk about the cul de sac doesn't have 214 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: to be, you know, public domain. It could be like 215 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: in your life, you're not ready for people to know, 216 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: but now you're leaving people out of pictures. And now 217 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 1: you're leaving people out of activities because you don't want 218 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: other people to see it. So now you're leaving people 219 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: out of pictures, and you post a picture of you 220 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: at Carbone or a Rockefeller Center or something, and then 221 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: it could be like marginalizing the other person. And then 222 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: people think you are still single, so still reaching out 223 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: to you. And I'm telling you, if the situation were reversed, 224 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: I would not want someone to exclude me. I might 225 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: not want to be public, but I also don't want 226 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: to be invisible. I don't want to be excluded. So 227 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: now there you're in a rock and a hard place. 228 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: Both parties are between a rock and a hard place. 229 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: So then you know you're at an event. Let's say 230 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: you're at the Yellowstone premiere, and a photographer says to you, 231 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: can I get a picture of you? Guys, You're out 232 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,599 Speaker 1: on a date with a man. You're standing next to 233 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: Jay Cutler and his girlfriend who you saw wearing a ring, 234 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: and you know before anybody else knows that they're engaged. 235 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: You're not saying anything, and a photographer says, can we 236 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: get a picture? I was already thinking, shit, the guy 237 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: had a dui. Shit, the guy's engage. Are they gonna notice? 238 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: But I can't be responsible for everyone? And shit, now 239 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: if we get a picture taken, the guy that I'm 240 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: standing with thinks this is just a picture taken at 241 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: the event. He doesn't know this is going to be 242 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: international news. Lo and behold the next day it's in 243 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: every fucking magazine. And then you're like, shit, I want 244 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: to start my diet again because last time I got fun. 245 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 1: So then you're like, I want to start my diet again. 246 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: Then you're out on another event, and then someone comes 247 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: up to you because you also want to bring a 248 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: guy on an event. You don't want to be invited 249 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: to something and be alone, especially during the holidays. Let's 250 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: say you're seeing someone you might want to bring them 251 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: to something. Then a photographer comes up to you. You're like, 252 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: you just went through this, and you're like, no, thank you, 253 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 1: it's okay. And it feels awkward. It feels like you're 254 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: embarrassed to the person you're with. You're in shamed, You're ashamed. 255 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: You don't want to be seen with them, like you're not. 256 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: You are running game. You want to sleep with other people, 257 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: you want to date other people. Why don't you want 258 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: to take a picture with them, even though they know 259 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: they really kind of might not want it either, because 260 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: the game moves quickly and the next day they're going 261 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: to be in twenty articles again. But it's like you're 262 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: damned if you do, damned if you don't. So you 263 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: don't take a picture. And then you're sitting in front 264 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: of a fireplace and it's a cute and you're like, 265 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: you want to include the man, just to be like, ah, yes, 266 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: I'm seeing a man, like I'm seeing someone. He's here 267 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: right now, he's a nice guy. He's making me a fire. 268 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: It's cute. This is a TikTok sound. I connect with 269 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: my people. I want to include them, their nosy bitches, 270 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: let's go. And then that thing becomes the hard launch 271 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: when you've posted a picture with the back of their head, 272 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 1: you know, just like I did on my birthday. It 273 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: was a ten photo slider, and they're just happened to 274 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: be me holding a man's head from behind, because it's 275 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: not a soft launch and it's not a hard launch. 276 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 1: It's just saying I was holding someone's hands, and the 277 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: romance part of me and the dating adventure era of 278 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 1: me is alive. It does not mean that I am 279 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: ring shopping and shopping for China. It's just that it's 280 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: not exactly and no one needs to like feel bad 281 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: for me. I have a great life, I'm happy. I'm 282 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: just explaining that not everything is what it seems for 283 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:36,079 Speaker 1: certain people. You know, I really really admire Ryan Gosling 284 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: and his wife and their militant way of keeping their 285 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: relationship private, but yet we still know wh they're in 286 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: a relationship. I remember Katie Holmes was dating Jamie Fox. 287 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: It was the best, it was the worst kept secret. 288 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: They were fully together because they got photographed. Did she 289 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: hard launch it? No? Does it make a difference. Was 290 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,839 Speaker 1: it still international news? Yeah? When they broke up, was 291 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: it still international news? Yeah? It's pretty hard to keep 292 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 1: something private, is what I'm saying. If people give a 293 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: shit about what you're doing and not, everything is as 294 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: it seems, so don't believe everything you read. Don't believe 295 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: every picture you see. Don't believe hard launch soft launch 296 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: paparazzi pictures like, Yes, they're an indication, but they don't 297 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: mean everything. Does that make sense
