1 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:05,600 Speaker 1: Yes, I have to pay the bills, but I also 2 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: have to make sure that my heart and my mind 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,239 Speaker 1: and my spirit are centered and that I'm well in 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: order to still have that energy to go out and work. 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 1: The first thing I like to do is thank God. 6 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: It just kind of dedicate my day for me. It's 7 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: important to know that there's something bigger and stronger and 8 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: this force that's just much bigger than me. I grew 9 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: up in this mentality of working. Working, you gotta work 10 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: harder than everyone else, and working is important, but also 11 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 1: resting is important. You guys, Hey, what up, y'all, and 12 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: welcome to another episode of Cheeky's and Chill. I'm your 13 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 1: host Cheeky's and today's episode we'll focus on something I've 14 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: been wanting to talk about for a while, work life balance. 15 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to be sharing with you some of the 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: things I do to keep a healthy balance and some 17 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: other things I know I need to improve on. So 18 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: no need to waste any more time. This is Cheeky's 19 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: and Chill. If you're like me, you probably have a 20 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 1: hard time switching off when you're not working. My typical 21 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 1: day looks like it changes because I travel so much, 22 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: but let's talk about when I'm home. When I'm home, 23 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: I like to wake up around seven seven thirty. I 24 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: used to wake up at six, you guys, but now 25 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: I'm waking up around seven seven thirty. The first thing 26 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: I like to do is thank God. For me, it's 27 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: super important to just not look at my phone. There 28 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: are days when I look at my phone before doing 29 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: anything else, like I'll get a message or something, or 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: I'll see an email and I respond to that before 31 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: I do my prayers in the morning. And when I 32 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: do that, when the first thing I do is look 33 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: at my phone, I feel like my day is just 34 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: more hectic and just stressful. 35 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 2: So for me, it's. 36 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: Important to wake up. I thank God. I turn on 37 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: my meditation music. I usually go on Apple Music or Spotify, 38 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: or I'll just put something like Singing Bowls or Positive 39 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: Energy or Zen music, and I just put it on 40 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: and I like my incense and I do my prayer. 41 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: For me, it's important to know that there's something bigger 42 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: and stronger and this force that's just much bigger than me. 43 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: And that's why I like to get on my knees 44 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: and I like to just meditate and just kind of 45 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: dedicate my day, and I always say bless the hours 46 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: ahead to just help me get through the day. Because 47 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: we all live, something always happens, like you just never know, 48 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 1: like you, there's always things that happen unexpectedly. 49 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: So for me, it's important. It's important to do that 50 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 2: the first thing I. 51 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: Do, and if I have time that day, which I 52 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: usually do, I make time. I like to start my 53 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: working day around nine ten o'clock. I like to work 54 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: out some cardio, some weights. I try to work out 55 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: anywhere from three to five times a week. I used 56 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: to do six. You guys, but make sure you're resting 57 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 1: one day. It's important. We're talking about balance, so it's 58 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: good to work out, but always like have one day 59 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: where you just don't do anything, and I mean like strenuous, 60 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: you know. So usually I take off Sundays from working out, 61 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: whether I'm traveling or not. I like to always have 62 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: a hotel that has some type of cardio machine so 63 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: that I can sweat. It's important to sweat and to 64 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: release toxins because releasing toxins helps you with stress levels, 65 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: helps you not to get sick, it helps you lose 66 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: weight obviously, So just to sweat and release toxins for me, 67 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,399 Speaker 1: is important and it's helped me so much so anyways, 68 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 1: that's working out for me. Those two things are kind 69 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: of like I'm giving my self love. I am putting 70 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: myself first. I am centering myself in the morning, I 71 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: am connecting with my spirituality. 72 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: I am getting my body to move to sweat. 73 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: Those are gifts that I feel like I give myself 74 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: and it becomes a lifestyle and it becomes a part 75 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: of your routine. I think that the most successful people 76 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: are those that have routines that wake up at a 77 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: certain time. For me, also, another thing that's important is 78 00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: as soon as I wake up, I drink water. I 79 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: always have a water bottle next to my bed, and 80 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: I take that water bottle into my restroom because in 81 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: my restroom is where I meditate and I'm constantly drinking water. 82 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: Like the first hour of my day, I start with 83 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: just drinking pure water at temple like it. I don't 84 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: like get cold. It just room temperature water, and it's 85 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: part of my routine. It's kind of like I'm feeding 86 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: my soul. It's kind of like watering a plant, you 87 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like that to me is just 88 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't know it's important anyways, so that's what I do. 89 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: Those things are super important. Doesn't matter where I am 90 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: in the world. I always make time for that, even 91 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: in a hotel, in a corner anywhere, just to center 92 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: myself and put myself in God's hands. As far as 93 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: work goes, it's always different. Right now, I'm starting to 94 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: make changes in my life where I want to take 95 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: off Sundays and Mondays from everything. If I have to 96 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: travel from like a show and get home on a Sunday, cool, 97 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: But I don't want to do anything else on a 98 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: Sunday or Monday because I want to dedicate it to 99 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: my home because those things are important to me. I've 100 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: learned that when I'm working too much and my home 101 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: isn't situated and it isn't clean, and things aren't in 102 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: and it's place, it really messes with me. I don't 103 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: know if you guys understand me, but if my bed 104 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: isn't made, if my room is a mess, if my 105 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: car is a mess, places that I spend most of 106 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: my time, if they are unorganized and they're a mess, 107 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: I feel like emotionally I'm everywhere. So that's why I 108 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: was like, I just made the decision, and I told 109 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: my manager and I told, oh me, my assistant. You guys, 110 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: I need to take off Sunday and Monday, and I 111 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: need to be at home. 112 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 2: I want to cook, I want a grocery shop. I 113 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: want to wash my own clothes. 114 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: It's important for me because I'm so particular, so anal, 115 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. I've learned now with 116 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: age that I am very particular. I want things done 117 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,799 Speaker 1: a certain way, and if they're not done a certain way, 118 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: then I'm upset. So I'd rather just do it myself. 119 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 1: So I like to wash my clothes, I like to 120 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: grocery shop, I want to cook. I want to just 121 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: end my week, which is Sunday, ending my week the 122 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: right way with myself in my home, and starting my 123 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: week which is Monday, in my home, and just setting 124 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: the tone of what the week is going to look like, 125 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: because again, my week changes so much. I could be 126 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: super busy or I could have less busy days, but 127 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: there's always something to do in the life of Jiggy's, 128 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: to be honest, So that's what I'm doing. I just 129 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 1: started implementing that recently, having those days off so that 130 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: I could, you know, like I said, set the tone 131 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: for the week, and figure out what I'm doing, because 132 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: if it's not phone interviews, it's interviews on zoom. I 133 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: have a bunch of meetings right now with the album 134 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: that just came out. We have shows, so I have 135 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: to prepare myself for my shows, and it's always different. 136 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: But I think, no matter how busy I am, it 137 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: is important for me to know that my home is 138 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: in place. I want to have quality time with my partner, 139 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: with my dogs, you know what I mean, Like I 140 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: want them to know that I'm not just gonna like 141 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: you know that they're my responsibility. It's weird because I 142 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: was bothering me for a while, you guys, because I 143 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: was so busy that I felt I was neglecting Bancho, 144 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: Like I felt like he probably didn't feel like he 145 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: was my son, like he probably felt, oh, he's only son, 146 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: or he was always at the hotel, at the dog hotel. 147 00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 2: And it was bothering me. 148 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: And I was like, wait, like I don't know, I 149 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: don't even know how to explain it, but it was 150 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: bothering me, and I wasn't comfortable and I felt very 151 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: out of balance. 152 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 2: And those things are important to me. 153 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: So I think it's important to check yourself and to 154 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: just make mental notes and write things down and be like, Okay, 155 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: what makes me happy. What makes me happy is giving 156 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: my partner quality time, giving my dog quality time, spending 157 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: time with him, for him to know he's my responsibility, 158 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: that I love him. Going to church, and I don't 159 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: go every Sunday the way I used to you guys, 160 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,239 Speaker 1: but I say, okay, I'll try to go once every month. 161 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: Spending time with my siblings, like we try to do 162 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: it once a month as well, Like we'll meet somewhere 163 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: and we'll all go to brunch or something like I 164 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: go visit Johnny's grandma, his dad's mom, and she cooks 165 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: for us, and those things just kind of for me, 166 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: help me keep my feet on the ground, help me 167 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: just stay like grounded. 168 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: You know. 169 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: It's doing things like that where it's like, wait, these 170 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: are the important things in life.

Everyone's just constantly chasing the dollar, you know 172 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: what I mean, and now not really focusing on what's important, 173 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: you know, and not really focusing on the moment. And 174 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: I think that for a while I was doing that 175 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: where I was just like so engrossed in work, and 176 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: I'm like, I have to just keep going. I have 177 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: to pay the bills, and yes, I have to pay 178 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: the bills, but I also have to make sure that 179 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: my heart and my mind and my spirit are centered 180 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: and that I'm well in order to still have that 181 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: energy to go out and work. 182 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 2: Does that make sense? 183 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: So I always put those things first. And that's what 184 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: I feel like is balance. And believe me, you're always 185 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: going to be out of balance, like in some point 186 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: of your life. Like you know, you just have to 187 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: catch yourself and reil yourself back in and say, okay, 188 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: wait a second. I kind of feel myself getting out 189 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: of balance. It's normal because you start getting used to 190 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 1: just the routine of life. The important thing is catching 191 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: yourself and saying, okay, wait a second, let me take 192 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: a few steps back, center myself, recenter myself. You know, 193 00:08:53,360 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: I think it's important if I think about it, the 194 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: most stressful part of my day, if I'm being honest, 195 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: it would have to be anything that's work related. And 196 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: the reason I say this is because I'm the type 197 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: of person that wants to give my all to anything 198 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: that I'm doing. Like I feel like if I'm going 199 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: to do it. If I'm going to start it, I 200 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: need to finish it, and I need to finish it strong. 201 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: Silampasadi like it could be anything. So for a long 202 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: time it was like, oh my god, I have to 203 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: work because obviously so many people expect so much from 204 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: me and I have so many different businesses that I 205 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: feel like I've done that to myself, you guys, where 206 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: it's like I put myself in these situations where it 207 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: seems easy at the time, and I'm like, oh, yeah, 208 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: I want to get myself into this, and I say 209 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: yes to certain things at the moment because it sounds 210 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: great and it's a great business opportunity and great business 211 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: move without considering the fact that I have so much 212 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: on my plate already. That's another thing that I've learned 213 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: this year, where it's like, Okay, it's okay to say 214 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: no to certain things because I don't want to disappoint 215 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 1: any I'll say yes, but then I end up disappointing myself. 216 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: So I think for me, it's I've learned a little 217 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: more to say no this year, even to my management, 218 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 1: even to certain people, family members in my life, friends, whatever, 219 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: because I need to really just do what makes me 220 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: truly happy and at peace, you know. So going back 221 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 1: to what stresses me out, I think it would have 222 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: to be work. It would have to be where it's 223 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: like I want to obviously have responsibilities at work and 224 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 1: I have to get things done, but I also want 225 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: to spend time with my partner, you know what I mean, 226 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: Because yes, Emilio is busy and he's doing this thing 227 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: or whatever, but I'm a lot busier, you know what 228 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: I mean. So finding that balance of I have to 229 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: do this video. Sometimes it's stuff that I have to 230 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: do videos for, like be flawless and push certain products, 231 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: and it's like he's home already. He gets home and 232 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: he's waiting for me, and I feel sometimes like a 233 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 1: little pressured. I'm like, oh my god, I have to 234 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: give him time. But I've learned to also speak my 235 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: mind and let him know, hey, this is my job. 236 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: This is part of what makes me happy be And 237 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: I think for me that was like the most stressful thing, 238 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: even like a couple months ago, until I just spoke 239 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: and I told him, Hey, I need you to understand. 240 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: And I think it was just in my mind because 241 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: he's like, hey, I'm totally fine, Like don't worry about me, 242 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: And I think I was just creating things in my mind, 243 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 1: you know. But once I spoke about it and I 244 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: let him know, then it helped out the situation. I 245 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: think sometimes we make up all these stories in our 246 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: mind and we don't talk about it, and it makes 247 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: us angry and more stressed out when simply all you 248 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 1: got to do is talk and then it's gone, you 249 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Right now, I think my biggest 250 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: stress is making sure that I'm not so busy that 251 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 1: I forget to eat. Sometimes I forget to like feed 252 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: myself and really sit down, you guys and enjoy my food. 253 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: Like sometimes I'm in a Russian and I'm working and 254 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: eating and it's like, no, like you need to sit down, 255 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: bless your food and say God, thank you for this food. Eat, 256 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: give yourself a good twenty minutes thirty minutes to eat slowly, 257 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: enjoy your food, and go. 258 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 2: Back to work. No pasanada. 259 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: I grew up you guys in this mentality of working. 260 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 2: Working. 261 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: You gotta work, you gotta work harder than everyone else, 262 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: And that's awesome, that's cool. Yes, I want to show 263 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: that to my children, show that to my siblings. Working 264 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: is important, but also resting is important. You guys, taking 265 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 1: time to sit down and enjoy your food and drink 266 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: your water. And now I've learned to be like, Okay, 267 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 1: I'm on the computer, I'm doing some work. I'm there 268 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: for like three hours straight and then I go outside 269 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: and I take a breath of fresh air, and I'm like, 270 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: I realign myself, and I'm like, Okay, when they say 271 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: stop and smell the roses, that's what it means. It's like, yes, 272 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: you could be busy doing your thing, but stop and 273 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: thank God for the sky, for the flowers, for your dog, 274 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: for the plants in your house. I don't know anything, 275 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: stop and smell the roses. And I come from a 276 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: background from a family that it's like like THENESQUEZU free. 277 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: You know, to make it, you need to suffer to 278 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: make it in this world. And I had that mentality 279 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: for so long. And guys, my mom was like that. 280 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: My mom didn't know how to vacation. My mom didn't 281 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: know how to rest. I mean, we would be at 282 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: dinner and she was on her phone and I would 283 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: have arguments with her. I'm like, Mom, you're with your kids, 284 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: you're not here. 285 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: Put your phone. 286 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: Away, and we started implementing this thing that when mom 287 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: was home, we would all put our phones in the 288 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: center of the table and enjoy each other because you 289 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: never know what can happen. And you go out to restaurants, 290 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: you guys, and you look around and everyone is on 291 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: their phone. They're either taking fucking pictures or videos to 292 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: post on Instagram and all this stuff, and they're not 293 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: talking and not having conversations. And that's what I mean. 294 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: It's like everyone's all about the hustle and bustle, and 295 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 1: this whole thing was just like wait a second, like 296 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: chill out, put your phone to the side and listen, 297 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And my mom had that 298 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: and I learned through my mentor, and he's the one 299 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: that two years ago said you need to rest. Your 300 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: responsibility is also in what you do is to rest. 301 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: There's no shame in resting. And I had shame about resting, 302 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: you guys, Like I was like, no, Like I'd be 303 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: on vacation and I feel guilty. I'd be sitting on 304 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: my couch for a little bit and I'd feel guilty. 305 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, if mom was here, I would have 306 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: to be doing something. Like my mom it was hard 307 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: for her to just sit down and enjoy something and 308 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: enjoy a movie, you know what I mean. Even when 309 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: we were at the movie, she'd be on her phone 310 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: answering emails and stuff like that. 311 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 2: And I want to. 312 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: Change that in my life.

Now I keep more 329 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: things to myself in my heart and my mind of 330 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: nice moments, or I take pictures, but I don't post them. 331 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: It's just for me. 332 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: Before I used to share everything you guys, and I 333 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: just felt like it became this. It was a little 334 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: annoying to be honest to people. I think around me 335 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: and talking about emails, and I'm the type of person 336 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: that needs to have everything clean in my phone. I 337 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: need to not see emails, like I don't even like 338 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: to see one one unopened one. But in the morning, 339 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: I don't look at my emails. I look at them 340 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: like after I've done everything, my personal things, my praying, 341 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: my working out, and that's my personal time. Now it's 342 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 1: work time, and I'll get into my emails and I'll 343 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: start responding. I usually start responding to my emails around 344 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: nine or ten, and I try to stop at a 345 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: certain time. There are times it's not all the time, 346 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: but I sometimes answer them super late, like if I'm 347 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: really busy throughout the day, then right before i go 348 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: to bed, I'll go ahead and respond to to emails 349 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: because I've I don't like to leave them there for 350 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: a long time. I need to get better actually on 351 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: my emails, you guys, I really do. I like to 352 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: just clean them out, like the junk mail, and then 353 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: I just leave the other ones and open. I'm like, Okay, 354 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: I'll get to them right now. But I do want 355 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: to get better at responding a little quicker to my emails. 356 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: But when I'm in bed, I'll just put my phone 357 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: to the side and I just focus. I like to 358 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: just spend time with my partner with the media and 359 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: like we'll watch like a show and it's just to unwind, 360 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And our thing is this 361 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: is exclusive information for my podcast because I've never said this, 362 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: but I have really turned to marijuana, you guys, to 363 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: sleep to relax. So I just put my phone to 364 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: the side. Like him and I are the same, and 365 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: this is something that he's taught me to be honest. 366 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: He's like, can we just have like the last hour 367 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: of our day to ourselves where you're not on your phone, 368 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: you're not on Instagram. And I'm like, yeah, you're right. 369 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: He's like, because it's important to me to spend time 370 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: with you. You've been busy. I've been busy all day 371 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: and I'm like, you're right, so I don't turn off 372 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: my phone. I try not to turn off my phone. 373 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: You guys, I'll get back to the wee thing right now. 374 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: But I try not to turn my phone because in 375 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: the back of my mind, and this is something I 376 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: have to get better at. I want to have it 377 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: on just in case my siblings need me. I feel 378 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: like if mikey, if something happens, because Mike is the 379 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: type of guy that likes to be out late at night, 380 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 1: or Johnny sometimes drives all the way to San Diego, 381 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: like he has friends in San Diego, and I'm like, 382 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 1: what if they call me and my phone's off, And 383 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: I just start thinking all these things. So I want 384 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: to get better at that because I trust so much 385 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: in the universe and in God that I'm like Tello's, 386 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 1: you know, like I can't worry so much all the 387 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,199 Speaker 1: time about my siblings. But the truth is that I 388 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: leave it on just in case they call me. I'll 389 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: ignore text messages, but I'm like, if it's important and 390 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 1: someone calls me and I turned off my phone on, 391 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: do not disturb, Like it would drive me nuts if 392 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 1: I knew if something happens and I didn't respond. You 393 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: know what, I mean, but I have to just trust 394 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more, you know. But anyways, so what 395 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: I've been doing is put my phone on the side, 396 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: we watch a show, We smoke a little joint, a 397 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: little blunt, a low marijuana. It's a lot better than 398 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: leaping pills, you guys. In my personal opinion, Okay, it's 399 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,159 Speaker 1: helped me out. I'll do melotonin once in a while, 400 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: but I'm really enjoying smoking a little bit of weed unwinding, 401 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: and I have such a good night's rest, you guys. 402 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: If I have a headache, if my neck hurts, if 403 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: I'm stressed out like I forget about everything, of course 404 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: I say my prayers. I always get on my knees, 405 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: you guys, before going to sleep, getting on my knees 406 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: and just thanking God for the day. Even if I'm 407 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 1: a little bit high, I'm like, God, you know what's up. 408 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: You know you made this herb. It's here for us 409 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: because you made it so Him and I we have 410 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 1: a connection. That's part of my spiritual gangster situation. So 411 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: even if I'm high, it doesn't matter. I'll get on 412 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 1: my knees, on my God, thank you, and then I 413 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: go to sleep. You guys, and I feel so good. 414 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: I wake up and I'm more energized. It's been like 415 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: a part of my like routine for the past I 416 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: don't know, I want to say eight months or so. 417 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 2: That's like my thing with Emilio. 418 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: We smoke a little bit and we just chill and 419 00:18:55,200 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: I sleep like a baby.

I feel like self care 422 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 1: is self love, taking care of yourself, whether it be 423 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: like with a skincare regimen or like I said in 424 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: the morning, drinking some water, feeding yourself. You know, I 425 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: feel like it's important for the first thing that goes 426 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: into your body for it to be water. 427 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 2: I feel like it just starts your day off right. 428 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe it's just in my mind, but anyways, 429 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: I used to do all with Ta Leimon. Now after 430 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: my water, I'll do like a little tea, green tea 431 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: with like collagen and fiber in it, like all in one. 432 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: It tastes so delicious, you guys, And I just feel 433 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 1: like I'm just doing something good for my body.

I'm always sharing it. 435 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: I'm all about taking care of yourself because it's a 436 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,360 Speaker 1: form of loving yourself, and loving yourself is the only 437 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 1: way that you'll be able to love anyone else. So anyways, 438 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: part of what I do I already told you guys. 439 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, I get on my knees, 440 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 1: I thank God, I pray. I have a little fountain 441 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 1: you guys, that I just purchased a couple months ago 442 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: on Amazon that is just like a little table fountain 443 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: that just is just go tanda with them, and that 444 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,959 Speaker 1: helps me relax. I don't know if it's because I'm 445 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: a water sign I'm cancer you guys. So I feel 446 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: like water just relaxes me, and I don't know, I 447 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: recommend it. I have a better sleep as well, and 448 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: also like sleep, music helps me. And one thing that 449 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: I like to do weekly at the end of the week, 450 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: usually on Mondays, I do it actually either Sunday or Monday, 451 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: I'll water all my plants in the house. I feel 452 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: like a plant is like a dog, if that makes 453 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: any sense. Like I feel like anyone that loves animals 454 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: and takes care of animals and humans and like plants, 455 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: I feel like it's a different type of person because 456 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 1: they're helpless. They can't water themselves, they can't feed themselves. 457 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 1: So for me, it's important to like water my plants 458 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: and talk to them. 459 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 2: Call me weird. 460 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: I'm a plant lady. I'm a crazy plant lady. I'll 461 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: sit there, I name my plans, I give them water, 462 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: and I feel like it's a part of I'm caring 463 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: for them, but I'm also caring for myself. It's like 464 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: a relaxing thing that I've just discovered, like the past year, 465 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: where i sit there and I'm talking to them. I'm like, 466 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: oh my baby, like I love you, Like I'll cut 467 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: their hair. It's like if I'm cutting their hair, but 468 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: I'm just you know, cutting their little like dry spots. 469 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: And it helps me so much. It's helped me like relax, 470 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: you guys. 471 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 2: And I don't know. 472 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: I mean, if it's watering your grass, if it's doing 473 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: something like without you even knowing that you're doing, it's like, okay, yeah, 474 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: it's my lawn, but in reality, it's a living thing, 475 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: your grass, the plants. Like I just feel like you're 476 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: doing something good for the earth, for yourself, for them 477 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: because they're living. Is that weird for me to say. 478 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: But anyways, it's helped me so much, so I recommend 479 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: that as well.

One thing I don't know if you guys 492 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 1: do this a lot of people. For a long time, 493 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 1: I did this. I would put on forensic files because 494 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 1: I love forensic files, and I would sleep with it 495 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: in the background, and my mom would too. 496 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 2: I learned it from my mom. 497 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: Actually, there are studies that say that it's the worst 498 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: thing that we can do for ourselves. 499 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 2: Is sleep with the TV on. 500 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 1: Even if it's on mute, you guys, the frequencies or 501 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it, that come out of 502 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,239 Speaker 1: the television, it's not good for our bodies and our 503 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,719 Speaker 1: mind and our brain. That's why even sleeping with your 504 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: phone too close to you is not good. People sleep 505 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 1: with their phone under their pillow or on the bed. 506 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: It's always good to keep it like they've told me 507 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: to keep it in another room, like in the bathroom 508 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: or something. 509 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 2: I can't. 510 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: I haven't gotten that good, you guys. I want to 511 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 1: get better at it, but I leave it like it's 512 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: on a little table, away from my face, away from 513 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: my body, because all that radiation and stuff is not 514 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: good for us. So I stop sleeping, you guys, with 515 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: my TV on because for a long time at R 516 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 1: it was my baby's sleeping music. And I stop doing that. 517 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: Like now, I try to just turn it off. I 518 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: try not to forget because all that stuff like it 519 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 1: gets into your brain and you can have bad nightmares and. 520 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 2: Just all kinds of things. 521 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: You guys should look into it, Google it and you'll 522 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: see what I'm talking about. And ever since I stopped 523 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: doing it, I feel a lot better. I feel more energized. 524 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: The next day, I just feel like, for the lack 525 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 1: of a better word, cleaner. So yeah, I don't sleep 526 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: with my TV on anymore. I like candles on. I 527 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: like a night light. I love night lights, you guys. 528 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 1: I don't really love the. 529 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 2: Dark, you know. 530 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: I will talk about that in another episode where I 531 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: don't like the dark, but I like to have a 532 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: night light and all those little things like the little fountain, 533 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: the little sleep music, a little night light. It just 534 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: gives you, like a peaceful like night's rest, a little 535 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: bit of weed if you want, if you know, if 536 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: your doctor recommends it, it helps you sleep. And I 537 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: feel like since I've been doing all that, I feel 538 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: more energetic, I feel happier. So, guys, I've gotten this 539 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: question a lot where people ask me, like how do 540 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: I sleep? Come piamos and piama Like Becky G said, 541 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: so it depends. It depends. I'm very much a pajama girl, 542 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: especially during the winter. I like like cute little matching 543 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: pajamas like I love pjs, I love robes. I'm very 544 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: like much that girl. My siblings always for Christmas give 545 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 1: me like they always know like pajamas or pantu flawers 546 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: with your slippers. But anyways, it just depends. There are 547 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 1: times when I'm feeling something sexy, like if I'm worrying 548 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: something sexy, it's because we're about to get down, you 549 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like Emily already knows, ooh, it's 550 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 1: that night you feel me. And sometimes I just I 551 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: don't really like to sleep naked anymore. Before I used 552 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: to sleep naked like a lot, but now that the 553 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: dogs are around, I don't know. I started, like because 554 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 1: Ryu basically sleeps with us, like Rayu's a little puppy, 555 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: like the little small puppy, so he sleeps on the bed. 556 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: So come okay, yeah, no, no, I don't feel comfortable. 557 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 2: It's weird. I don't feel comfortable. 558 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 1: Sleeping naked, but sometimes I will, depending if it's like 559 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: really hot. But I usually like to keep my air conditioner. 560 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: I like to keep the room cool, like at seventy two, 561 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: sometimes sixty nine, sixty nine or seventy two. Those are 562 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: like my two numbers, Like I like my air conditioner 563 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 1: at but I guess I would be more. I would 564 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: say seventy percent of Pajama Girl, and then the other 565 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: thirty percent. I would probably say I'm either naked or 566 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: something sexy. But I guess I am that girl that 567 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 1: wears likes to wear pajamas. And I used to have 568 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: a silk pillowcase because that's really good for your hair, 569 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 1: for the health of your hair, for your skin, you guys. 570 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: I used to and I actually should get one, but 571 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't go like with the decor of my room. 572 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: So maybe I should get a pillow that's just for 573 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: that and hide it. But they make me hot. I 574 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: feel like the silk makes me hotter. It makes me 575 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: like warm while I'm asleep. But it is very good. 576 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: It's good for your hair and for your skin, you guys. 577 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: But yeah, I just wanted to share that because you know, 578 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 1: I have gotten that question a lot. People are curious. 579 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 1: I guess to know if I like to sleep naked. 580 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: All right, guys, So that'll do for today's episode.
