And so it's interesting being the youngest 174 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: and being the first to do a lot of things, 175 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: the first to leave my mom's house to go to college, 176 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 2: the only one to get a master's degree in my family, Like, 177 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 2: there was a lot that I just had to learn 178 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 2: from myself. And so when people were like, oh, yeah, 179 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 2: like I need some money, to let me call home, 180 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 2: I'm like, no, when they need some money, they call me, 181 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 2: and I'm here, like. 182 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: The youngest, you know what I mean. 183 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 2: I'm I'm looking at for every twenty one or whatever, 184 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 2: trying to get it together, and they're leaning on me 185 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 2: for this thing. So then naturally, as I got older 186 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 2: and I came into the industry, it feels like a 187 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: it feels like I it sometimes feels like I'm the 188 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 2: oldest sister, right and through experience, I have way more 189 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 2: experience than than some of most of my siblings, and 190 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 2: so in some aspects, like I'm able to give them 191 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 2: some advice, but it is for tie, like figuring out 192 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,119 Speaker 2: like what does it mean to leave home and then 193 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 2: not come back? But what happens in those years, like 194 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 2: it gets harder to go. You know, maybe after college 195 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 2: you thought, Okay, after this, I'm gonna and then you 196 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 2: come out and you're living your life in New York 197 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 2: and maybe it's like, well, after I sell this company, 198 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna after I do this, I'm gonna after I 199 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 2: after I after I after, and then all. 200 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: These years just later and you keep on pushing the bus. 201 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yeah. 202 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: You know you went to school for creative and performing 203 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: arts from when you were in high school, so nobody 204 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 1: else in your family was in that field. 205 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 2: My aunt was a was a perform Oh my god, 206 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 2: I'm like, are we going here? My aunt, whom I 207 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 2: loved in the door growing up, I had went to 208 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 2: Kappa as well, and so I felt like I was 209 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 2: maybe following in her footsteps. And she had a production company, 210 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 2: she has a she's a management com she's a manager, 211 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 2: and so I was like, oh, she wants what's best 212 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 2: for me. She's saved me from my mom a lot 213 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 2: of times. And then I was going to college and uh, 214 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 2: something shifted, and she you know, told me she was 215 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 2: going to assue me if I worked for anybody else, 216 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: because I signed a contract for her at sixteen, and 217 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 2: I'm like, wait, that was a real thing. And she 218 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 2: really didn't have me sign a contract, but my I 219 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 2: was like, girl, I got that off Google, like and 220 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 2: so right. And so it was like really crazy to me, 221 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 2: this switch. And there was a lot of things that happened. 222 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: But I was living with her at the time, and 223 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 2: I had been staying with my mom. So when I 224 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 2: went to college, naturally I had to go get my stuff. Child. 225 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 2: She didn't give me anything. I went to college with 226 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: like a backpack full of stuff all of my class. 227 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 2: I was working two jobs okay before that summer to 228 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 2: like get enough stuff to say in order to you know, 229 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 2: none of my because I was writing poetry.

I was 232 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: so mad, and I was mad at my family because 233 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: I'm like, is everybody so afraid of her that nobody 234 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 2: could go get my stuff? Like she was not, you know. 235 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 2: And so then one of my aunts was like, as 236 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 2: long as you want that stuff, she has power over you. 237 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 2: And that was my first lesson and non attachment. And 238 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 2: so once I released that, I was like, oh, okay, 239 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 2: And it was hard because I'm like, but what about 240 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 2: like this sweater that I got from this aunt that 241 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 2: then you know, passed away, or this vintage thing, or 242 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 2: like I was working, I don't I don't have nobody 243 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 2: to support me.

But it wasn't a big 300 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 2: deal to me. 301 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: It's like I can't tell me now right, I figured 302 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: tell me now the fast you tell me now? 303 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 2: The fast I figured, and so she was like, basically, 304 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 2: you know, she didn't have it. She felt like everybody 305 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 2: was mad at her for not having it. And then 306 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 2: when I told her I couldn't do her fashion show, 307 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 2: she felt like I was trying to do stuff with 308 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 2: other people. But then she turned the conversation into something 309 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: else about all the people that have hurt her and 310 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 2: all this other stuff. And this is when I was like, oh, 311 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: I'm never going to this person is never going to 312 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 2: say to me, I fucked up and I'm sorry for that, 313 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: and that's it. It's always going to be about something yet, 314 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,359 Speaker 2: and it's always gonna. 315 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 1: Go through personal back to her. 316 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 2: It's always going to go back to her. And so 317 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 2: if I want to engage in that sort of behavior, 318 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 2: I have to know she's never going to admit it. 319 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 2: And then I gave her one more chance. She was 320 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 2: coming to New York because my little cousins and actor 321 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 2: as well under her company.

Yes, I'm sorry, girl, right. 370 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 2: And I think because I in my lifetime, especially with 371 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: my family, nobody has ever taken accountability, I'm so sensitive 372 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 2: to taking accountability. So sometimes I think I overtake accountability 373 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 2: because I like know that feeling somebody overcompensated. Sometimes I'm like, oh, yeah, 374 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 2: like my mom is my mom has never and ever 375 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 2: apologized to me. My dad has never apologized to me, 376 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 2: So it just feels. 377 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: Like I don't know if anybody in my family's ever 378 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: apologized for anything. I literally just very team I. But 379 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: I literally just left my. 380 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 5: Therapists and we were having a conversation about my parents, 381 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 5: and we literally just talked about conversations that we wish 382 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 5: we had that we never did, and accountability, apologies, just 383 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 5: speaking on things that were kind of like sensitive was 384 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 5: definitely the topic that we just talked about. So I'm 385 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 5: immediately drawn back to that conversation. But it sucks because 386 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 5: at this point in my life, my parents are no 387 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 5: longer here, so it's too late for me to have 388 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 5: these conversations. So that went on to me saying like, Okay, 389 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 5: I need to be better as a parent and make 390 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 5: sure that these conversations I had with my daughter because 391 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 5: one day it's going to be too late and I 392 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 5: don't want her to feel how I feel in this moment. 393 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 5: But that's crazy that this is what this conversation. I 394 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 5: literally like left there and came here. 395 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 1: That's crazy. 396 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't have. 397 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: It's so real. 398 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 2: It's the culture of I'm gonna speak for my family 399 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 2: being from North Philly, it's we don't talk about it. 400 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 2: Even me trying to like get my family history, trying 401 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 2: to archive some of our stuff, and I can't even 402 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 2: talk to get it my aunts and uncles about my 403 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 2: grandmother is too painful for them, or like what happened? 404 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 2: I have this half memory of this thing happening. What 405 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 2: was that? People don't want to talk about it. They 406 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 2: don't want to go there, and I have to respect that, 407 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 2: like I until I can maybe provide the resources for 408 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 2: their care. After I open that can of worms. I 409 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: can't push for that can of worms. 410 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: Okay, I get it because people have to do the 411 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: work on this. 412 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 5: Because when you knocked that one dimino over, who knows 413 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 5: how long it's gonna keep goings. 414 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,959 Speaker 1: Did they feel like when you they found out that 415 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: you were engaged to a woman, did that matter to them? No? 416 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:06,959 Speaker 2: I don't care about that kind of stuff. But my 417 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 2: mom was alive and I told her I was I 418 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 2: was gay my first year of college. My second year 419 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 2: of college, she said, girl, just mad. First of all, 420 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 2: she said, don't say you gay, just say you like 421 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 2: women and then wowed me to marry a rich Italian woman. 422 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: She said, don't say you just say you like. 423 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 2: But I don't like men. Yeah, it's interesting, it's just singing. 424 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 2: And I've said since I'm like, oh, I'm a little 425 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 2: bit more like pan and fluid than just like liking women. Right, 426 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 2: But at the time it was confusing to me that 427 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 2: it was like But then I went actually, I went 428 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 2: to a juvenile detention center in Cleveland to speak to 429 00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 2: the kids and one of the girls was, right, so 430 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 2: are you guy in real life?

She like both. So it 435 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 2: was interesting and it's a it's a cultural thing, but 436 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 2: it's also like access to information. I'm sure my mom 437 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 2: was very sexually liberated. I'm sure she has moments with women. 438 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 2: I'm sure you know that that we didn't necessarily know 439 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 2: about her.

She just loved her daughter. 467 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: I said, it's my little baby. Yeah, now listen. I 468 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: love the fact that your character on the show is 469 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: in tech right, which I think is great making a 470 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: lot of money, but also very sexually liberated, just able 471 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: to do whatever you want, you know. But it feels 472 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: like and just like the therapist saying, maybe some trauma 473 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: because of having a lack of commitment, do you think 474 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,239 Speaker 1: that that indicates there's an issue if somebody can do 475 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 1: these things but want no attachments. 476 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's yes, Anne, because as 477 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 2: an Aquarius, as a as a poly person, there is 478 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 2: a lot of moments where I'm like, I wish that 479 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 2: there were more people who were wanting to have sex 480 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 2: with me with no strings attached. 481 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: But as guys, like, people really don't think that we 482 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: can do that. 483 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 2: And hold on. 484 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 1: They can't. As much as that claim they can, they 485 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: really can't. 486 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 2: I be like, I don't want anything, and they're like, 487 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,880 Speaker 2: let's go to Cameroon and get married, and I'm like, no, bro, 488 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 2: I don't want anything. That's what I'm saying to you. 489 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 2: So for me that is tough, and for for me 490 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 2: with women, it's hard. It's I have to be I 491 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 2: feel like I have to be more intentional because I 492 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 2: don't want to play with a woman's we have emotions, Yeah, 493 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 2: I don't want to, you know. And so I feel 494 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 2: like there is a way to desire it without wanting 495 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 2: strings attached, and it not be attached to some trauma 496 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 2: that you had about commitment. But there's also a way 497 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 2: to run from intimacy that can feel like, oh, if 498 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 2: we get intimate, then I might have to get vulnerable, 499 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 2: and I'm afraid of vulnerability because of my attachment style, 500 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 2: and so I don't want to go that far. Where 501 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 2: I feel like I can be it can be casual 502 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 2: and intimate intimate at the same time without it being serious, 503 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 2: like without it being like we're going to get. 504 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 1: Married, Like you can be so respectful of me and 505 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: care about me as as but also understand do your thing, 506 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: which is what Megan Good's character is trying to do. 507 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 5: I love meel down, but she didn't get on My 508 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 5: Nurse in season one because she represents a large population. 509 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: That's why I have a friend.

And so the 849 00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 2: way that I declogged that connection is by fasting. And 850 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 2: so it started off with a Daniel fast and then 851 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 2: I became alkaline for two years, and I did a 852 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 2: raw fast juice cleanse, and now I'm a full liquid 853 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 2: forty day fast.

Hey, 879 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 2: I haven't heard from you, because the people who are 880 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,840 Speaker 2: still clicked into your energy that you. 881 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 6: Didn't cut that chord, and they feel it.

But 894 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 2: then sometimes you have energy leeches that come in and 895 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,759 Speaker 2: they want to be around you, and they like what 896 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,759 Speaker 2: you got and they like how you look. Let me 897 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 2: take your pictures, let me be your photographer for free, 898 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 2: let me do your house at a discounted rate, right, 899 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 2: you know, and they snap onto your energy. I'm like, 900 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,360 Speaker 2: I shouldn't have let that woman in my house, but 901 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,160 Speaker 2: I didn't know at the time, right, you know. 902 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 1: So because we want to believe the best. Yeah, I 903 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: think that's the thing. I never want to feel so 904 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 1: jaded that I don't believe that people have good intentions. 905 00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: But people don't have good intentions all the time. 906 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,879 Speaker 2: Yes, people, you know. Yes, And so for me, when 907 00:45:52,920 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 2: I'm fasting, it's like the veil is off, I'm seeing Everything's. 908 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 1: Give you a lot of clarity that saying does give you, 909 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 1: like that clarity where you can when you're not faint, 910 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: where you can see things like very clearly, and you 911 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: can just you know, feel everything and you think. 912 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,840 Speaker 2: And for me, I'm like dang, what's been in this 913 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:19,759 Speaker 2: food I've been eating? You know in fact that I 914 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 2: remember when I was alkaline. I had I was alkaline 915 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 2: for two years and I had alcohol like wine by accident, 916 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 2: and I felt the sugar rush through my veins in 917 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,719 Speaker 2: a way that I have never felt before. And so 918 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 2: I always think too like twenty twenty four was hard. 919 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,320 Speaker 2: I felt like I was. I was. 920 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:40,840 Speaker 1: I was like. 921 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 2: Celebrating more but eating more, and I'm like, well, what 922 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 2: am I compensating for? I'm over eating. I don't do that. 923 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 2: I'm eating stuff that I don't usually eat what I 924 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,840 Speaker 2: don't do that, And so fast thing helps me to 925 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 2: be like, listen, this is what happened. This is what happened. 926 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 2: This is what happened, This is what happened. This is 927 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 2: what we need to process, and this is what you 928 00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 2: need to let go of if you want to ascend 929 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 2: to the next level that you saying that you want 930 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 2: to ascend to, this is what you need to do. 931 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:05,359 Speaker 1: Clear now, Listen, when I did the two week fast, 932 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 1: we weren't allowed to have we weren't well, we weren't 933 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:08,799 Speaker 1: supposed to have sex either. 934 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:13,120 Speaker 2: Now did you palli. 935 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 1: Or twice? 936 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 2: Right? 937 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 1: But so what about abstaining from sex? Have you ever 938 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:22,240 Speaker 1: done that? I see a lot of people talking about 939 00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:26,120 Speaker 1: that recently, Like who was it just I was I 940 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 1: was just talking about well, obviously Lenny Kravitz said that 941 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:33,360 Speaker 1: he did pretty V and b Simone. It was somebody 942 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 1: else that we recently reported was Oh Redman said that 943 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 1: after his divorce, going through this bad divorce, he abstained 944 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 1: from sex. So have you ever practiced abstinence? 945 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 2: Yes? When I actually when I became alkaline, I was like, actually, 946 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 2: I'm going to date myself and I'm not going to 947 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:54,240 Speaker 2: have sex. And when I tell you, I was so clear, 948 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 2: I was so alive, I was so in like because 949 00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,240 Speaker 2: I'm because also sex connects. 950 00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 1: You to people's energy deposits. 951 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:07,839 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I think my fiance two years nice. It's 952 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 2: just a different thing because also then you realize when 953 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 2: you're out, am I out because I want to I 954 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 2: want to do something? Or am I out because I 955 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 2: want to be? And so your intentions have to be 956 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 2: clearer because it's like, oh, at the end of the night, 957 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 2: nothing's going to happen. So I'm actually just moving how 958 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 2: I want to move. I'm not going to be here 959 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 2: till two am. Trying to see if I'm. 960 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:37,360 Speaker 1: Not doing let out right, let's say what we're doing exactly. 961 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: How important is sex to you in your relationship? You know, 962 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: some people I think as we get older, when I 963 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,440 Speaker 1: was younger, maybe it was more important. I think my 964 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 1: boyfriend would say it's extremely important. But like for you, 965 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,360 Speaker 1: if you had to say on percentage wise, like what 966 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: if the sex wasn't amazing, could you still be in 967 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: a relationship, could you still be with somebody? Like what's 968 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 1: the importance of it? 969 00:48:56,520 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 2: I think sex is extremely poortant, but I think it's 970 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 2: the kind of sex Like I'm a sensual person, so 971 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 2: and I and I'm a pleasure seeker. Maybe pleasure is 972 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 2: like my thing that I'm you know that I love. 973 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 2: I'm always like, what is pleasurable to me? I want 974 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 2: to feel what's pleasurable and so pleasurable relationships things can 975 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:23,880 Speaker 2: be pleasurable and intimate in a way that is sexy. 976 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 2: That like just like just having sex. To have sex 977 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,800 Speaker 2: for me is like not necessarily anything, But there's something 978 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 2: about having pleasurable sex, intentional sex, tantric sex that I'm like, oh, 979 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:44,000 Speaker 2: we are tapping into another level because for me, that 980 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 2: sort of pleasure center, my kundalini. That's where my creativity 981 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:55,399 Speaker 2: comes from. So I'm always down handling. Now, Yes, that's 982 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 2: that root shot, that's that. Yeah, you're labunda. 983 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,840 Speaker 1: I'm not using that. Listen, get with his kundalini before 984 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 1: you try anything else. 985 00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 3: It kind of sounded like that Italian woman's pasta for 986 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:10,440 Speaker 3: a second, and. 987 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 2: It probably was. 988 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 1: Because even I would say this, when you do a 989 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 1: detox or fast right, it is the reason they tell us. 990 00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 1: They told me to like abstain during that is because 991 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:24,879 Speaker 1: you're supposed to be like detoxing things and you don't 992 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,919 Speaker 1: want nobody, like, you know, getting their detox. I guess 993 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,239 Speaker 1: your detox stuff all over them.

And if those things 1112 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:10,560 Speaker 2: don't line up, then I'm at dissonance with myself. And 1113 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 2: a lot of what I was doing was things that 1114 00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 2: I learned, like there were times where I was like, 1115 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 2: I felt dirty having sex with men because my boyfriend 1116 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 2: of the longest time like treated me like a Barbie 1117 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 2: doll because like he was the one of the only 1118 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:27,320 Speaker 2: people that I had been with, and so I was like, oh, well, 1119 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 2: this is how it should be right.
