I love you and 91 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: You're so transparent about so many different parts of your life, 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: which is why I think you're so relatable. Yeah, why 93 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: people just gravitate to you because they see themselves, even 94 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: if it's like a certain part. You let everybody see 95 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: all of you, in all the different colors of you, 96 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: so it's like, oh, I can identify with that, I 97 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: can identify with that. I just love that about you. 98 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: I'm not as transparent. 99 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 2: Why do you think that is? 100 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: I think I was always taught to that. There was 101 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: something about being a mystery. 102 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 2: Oh I like that too. 103 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's something about being a mystery and don't let 104 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: everybody know everything you have going on. You have to 105 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: tell people everything. But in this world now where we're 106 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: on social media and we're on platforms like our shows 107 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: that we have, you have to be more open and transparent. 108 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: And I still find myself being selective but trying to 109 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: be more open. What got you to the point where 110 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,559 Speaker 1: you were like, you know what would be I'm about 111 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: to just put it all out there. 112 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 2: I've always been like that, but I think subconsciously it 113 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: was also a protection because nobody can say anything about 114 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 2: me that I haven't already said about myself. You know 115 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: she was on those you know she had an abortion. 116 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 2: You already said. It's like, yeah, this is me, you 117 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,679 Speaker 2: know I not having the facade and not being real. 118 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: That is like the biggest fear of mine, Like somebody 119 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: finding out I'm fake or pony or a lie like 120 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 2: that is like a fear, like, no, this is me, 121 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 2: I am real. This is what comes with it. If 122 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: you know me, if you don't know me, whoever is 123 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 2: in my life is going to get all of me. 124 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: So the truth, whatever that is, the truth isn't always pretty, 125 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So I'm willing to tell 126 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: the truth, even when it's ugly, even when I've been 127 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: through the dark times, even when I made horrible mistakes, 128 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 2: even when you know I might have been blacked out 129 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: drunk in my past or like I I've talked about 130 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 2: this publicly, my abortion. I've had an abortion. The truth 131 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: ain't always pretty, But I rather just be honest. I'm 132 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: not saying it's right. I'm not saying all the choices 133 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 2: I made were right, but it was the truth. It happened. 134 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: I can't erase my history. It happened. You know, whether 135 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 2: I tell the truth or not, it still happens. So 136 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 2: I think vulnerability and transparency is a superpower, and I'm 137 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 2: kind of trying to get a little bit more like 138 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 2: you in certain areas to where you can still be 139 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: raw and real and all the way out there. But 140 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 2: it doesn't have to be a secret. It's just some 141 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 2: things can be private there. 142 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 3: It's not that it's a secret. 143 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 2: I'm not hiding anything from you, guys, but some things 144 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 2: are sacred in private. Like I've thought about that recently 145 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: with my love life, Like if I did get a boyfriend, 146 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: if I did get serious, and it was like thinking, oh, 147 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 2: this could be my husband, would I share him with 148 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: the world, Like that's sacred? Would I? I don't know. 149 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,679 Speaker 1: You know, I go through this as well, and I'm like, okay, 150 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna hide you like we're gonna go out. 151 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: But I feel like putting somebody out on social media 152 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: if you see as you see. 153 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 2: It, yeah, yeah, putting it out there. Yeah. 154 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if I would do that either. And 155 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: for the most part, the guys updated are okay with that. 156 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 2: Cool, so cool. 157 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: I haven't ran into an issue, But that is a 158 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: thing you want to protect things ye sacred. 159 00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: No, I feel that because when you open up that 160 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 2: door of the audience. They feel like they have access now. 161 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: So it's like, well, you put them on the internet, 162 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: but that don't mean you can have an opinion on 163 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 2: every little thing to them. 164 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: Should put it out there. If you didn't want to 165 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: say nothing. 166 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: You shouldn't have shared it.

If it happens, we have 401 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 2: nothing to discuss, I will walk away. 402 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: That's interesting to me because I had a friend who 403 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 1: used to say, you're singlings, you're married, Yeah, why do 404 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: we put marriage stipulations on people were not married to? 405 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 2: And I was like, so, what's like marriage stipulations? 406 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 1: Like not cheat, like cheating, like vowels? You know what 407 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: I'm saying, You're like putting the not sleeping with other people. 408 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: That's like a marriage stipulation that you're putting on someone 409 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: who hasn't made that vow to you. It kind of 410 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: changed my perspective on dating, which I don't this is 411 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 1: not okay, that is not that. But she changed my 412 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: perspective where I stopped holding people to that standard before 413 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: they asking to me their wife. 414 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 2: So you know what it is for me, I think 415 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 2: whatever we agree to. So if you clearly tell me, 416 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 2: oh yeah we're dating, we're in this together. I'm not 417 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: seeing other people. I'm trusting your word. It's more of 418 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 2: a word thing like if I can't trust you, now, 419 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 2: why am I going to be able to all of 420 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: a sudden turn the trust switch on when we walk 421 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 2: down the aisle. So I think whatever we agree to 422 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 2: is what I expect. If you're like, we're dating other 423 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 2: people or whatever, yeah, So for me, if we agree 424 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 2: it's just us, then it's gonna have to be the 425 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 2: You gotta be that. 426 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay. Something that you touched on earlier was finances. Yeah. 427 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 1: And some question that I get asked often is would 428 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: you date someone who doesn't make as much money as 429 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: you as a high earner? Would you date someone who 430 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: doesn't make as much money as you? 431 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 2: I think I would if I could still, I wouldn't 432 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 2: want to one hundred change my lifestyle. Was like, oh okay, 433 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 2: I can't get facials anymore, or I can't get massaged. 434 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 2: I can't do all these things because we can't afford it. Right, 435 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: So as long as we can have the same lifestyle, 436 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 2: I would love to still travel and live and invest 437 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 2: in businesses. And when you invest, you know you're gonna 438 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 2: lose sometimes. Do we have the money to take those risks? 439 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 2: I done invested in properties and in certain text things 440 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,479 Speaker 2: that just like that didn't really work out. But I 441 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 2: invest over here, you know, so he could make less 442 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 2: than me, for sure, But I would love to keep 443 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 2: up the same lifestyle. If that makes sense. 444 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: No, it's perfect sense. It's funny because I've said the 445 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: same thing because people always ask like, would you date 446 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 1: some I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I definitely would. 447 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: But I do. I love the things that I love 448 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: and I've never been ashamed of that. Yeah. I always 449 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 1: very transparent about that, Like, this is what I like 450 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: to do and as long as I can do it. Lord, 451 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: I want to. 452 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 2: Christmaal place on a vineyard, drinking wine, eating cheese.

Yes, you know, sometimes for me, exposure inspires. 458 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 2: When you're exposed, it's like I can't go back. 459 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: I can't. 460 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: Steve Harvey said that once you sit in first class, 461 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: I don't want to go back to the rope twenty 462 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,160 Speaker 2: in the middle seat.

What I gotta 549 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 2: tell you a story I've never shared this publicly. I 550 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 2: was downtown and we were filming Wild and Out downtown 551 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 2: in Atlanta. I see a lady, she has her five 552 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 2: she's changing her baby's diaper on the ground, and she 553 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 2: got five kids with her right and I'm staying in 554 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 2: this hotel. We end up talking going going long story short, 555 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 2: I put her in her kids in this hotel for 556 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 2: the week, just you know, put them in the hotel. 557 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 2: Boom me. Now, y'all, this is crazy. This don't make 558 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 2: no sense, and I'm not advising anybody to do this. 559 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 2: A month later, you think I didn't have that lady house, 560 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 2: that's who you are. But it wasn't wise, it wasn't 561 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 2: why not even the space I wasn't. She couldn't keep 562 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 2: it up. She was stressed. I walked in the house. 563 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 2: It was flies and gnats and food. 564 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: Oh. 565 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 2: I just came in the house and I started crying, 566 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 2: you know. But we worked our way up to that, 567 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: you know, I had, I had, I had a real 568 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 2: her help me and I talked to her and I 569 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 2: try to get her housing and I try to get 570 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 2: her a job, and we were working our way up 571 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 2: to it. I just didn't buy a stranger a house. 572 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 2: And it was an investment property. So I was like, 573 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 2: if anything, I could sell it, and it's still an 574 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 2: investment for me, right. But I said all that to say, 575 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 2: I didn't pray about that. I just saw somebody in need. 576 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 2: It was off impulse, like you can't be on the 577 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 2: street with your five kids, you know. So I built 578 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 2: a relationship with her, but she it don't matter what 579 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 2: you do for people if their mind doesn't change. She 580 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 2: still thought she was on the street even though she 581 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 2: was in a house. So more, it's more than just 582 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 2: putting her in the house. It's giving her the resources 583 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 2: to keep it up, the resources to pay the rent, 584 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 2: the resources to mentally grow. So she was in the house, 585 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 2: but her mind was still in the streets. So helping 586 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 2: people that God calls you to and the way he 587 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 2: caused you to do it, not just impulsively giving. So 588 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 2: I'm learning that in the season with my businesses too. 589 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 2: You know, I'm getting better.

I didn't know it was important to 834 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 2: you that I showed up for this soccer practice or 835 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 2: whatever it is. 836 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 3: Like whatever, it is a big deal. 837 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 2: You never told me. So you know you have to 838 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 2: treat each friend different because each friend requires different things. 839 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 1: Just that so true. Yeah, everybody needs something different. 840 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 2: Everybody needs something different. So I truly believe I'm a 841 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 2: great friend. I've gotten no complaints and anytime. And I 842 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 2: talked about this on the Craze podcast. He was like, 843 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 2: how do you take accountability? I'm like, I'm such a 844 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 2: people pleaser that accountability is easy for me because when 845 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 2: people tell me there's a problem, I'm like, how do 846 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 2: I fix this? I never like I did that. I'm like, 847 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 2: I'm so sorry. It's almost over accountable. And I don't 848 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 2: sit back and say, well, hold on, I didn't do that, 849 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 2: or you know, or hold on, let's talk about this 850 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:29,359 Speaker 2: or so accountability is pretty pretty easy for me. But 851 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 2: as far as friendships, I feel like I'm a great friend. 852 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,919 Speaker 2: Thank you friend. You are too too. You just show 853 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 2: up and show you want to go to the Hawks game? Yes, 854 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 2: not plan right right right? And I still I still 855 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 2: got to come to this house. We be so busy, 856 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 2: but we're gonna make it happen. We're gonna make it. 857 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, I feel like I'm a great friend and 858 00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 2: I'm super open to constructive criticism, whether it's in my relationship. 859 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 2: And I'm sure let's let's not let's be real. I'm human. 860 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,319 Speaker 2: I'm sure there's been moments where I might have gotten 861 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 2: offended or might have been like not taking accountability. But 862 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,399 Speaker 2: for the most part, overall, yeah, I feel like I'm 863 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 2: pretty easy to talk to. I fix it. I'm like 864 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 2: let's fix it. Like, I want to show up in 865 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 2: the way you need me to show up. So I'm 866 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 2: open to constructive criticism even in friendships. 867 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: I love that. Yeah, I love that's so important, And 868 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:25,359 Speaker 1: it's also important to know that, like sometimes to take 869 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 1: in Beto him like, wait, did I do something wrong? Yeah, 870 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 1: because sometimes you can take things out of contest and 871 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 1: you really have to know where you're coming from on 872 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:32,800 Speaker 1: certain things. 873 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,719 Speaker 2: And people need different stuff in different seasons. Maybe, Like 874 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 2: I have a friend who went through a divorce. Before 875 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,399 Speaker 2: her divorce, she didn't need as much as she needs. 876 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 2: Now she's in a season of like I need my friends, 877 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 2: I need my sister. I'm trying to figure this out. 878 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, there's differences when you go through 879 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 2: a horrible friend breakup.

Yes, 881 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 2: I didn't require as much at the beginning, but once 882 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 2: you go through stuff, you need certain things in certain seasons. 883 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 2: So just being vocal with. 884 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 1: That, I love that. 885 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 2: Yeah. 886 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: I love that we have You and I both have 887 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 1: talked about friends, family, and forgiveness. Yes, this summer we 888 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,439 Speaker 1: talked about something personal that I hang on through and 889 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: how I was navigating that forgiveness. 890 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:19,320 Speaker 2: Man. 891 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, as a woman where you are now in your 892 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 1: walk with God, If you had to grade yourself A 893 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 1: to an F, what would you grade yourself on forgiving others? 894 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 2: Mmm? I would say a B. 895 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 1: I said, I'd be minus. 896 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 2: I would say a bee. It's so crazy. Can I 897 00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 2: read you something? 898 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:44,439 Speaker 1: Yeah? 899 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: I just text my sister yesterday. Wow, this is crazy. 900 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 2: You brought this up. Hold on, hold on, hold on, 901 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 2: my sister, But not yesterday today. I was with my 902 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 2: family yesterday. And sometimes I feel like we run from 903 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 2: family because family is a trigger for our past. So 904 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 2: certain things trigger us, Like we could choose our friends. 905 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 2: You can't choose your family, so but you always with 906 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,839 Speaker 2: your friends, Well, I choose them. I didn't choose y'all. 907 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,839 Speaker 2: And sometimes there's triggers over here with family. But my 908 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,239 Speaker 2: sister was like, it's so good you're around the family more. 909 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:17,960 Speaker 2: And they were so happy you were there. I went 910 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 2: to Columbus and that's my dad grew up there. And 911 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 2: we were there and I had a show, and my uncle, 912 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,279 Speaker 2: my aunt, my dad's siblings who were all together, we 913 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 2: went to eat and it was just a beautiful family 914 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 2: something that I'm appreciating. The older I get in, the 915 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 2: more healing I know. So I was like, the more 916 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 2: I heal, the less family is a trigger. It used 917 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 2: to trigger me being around family sometimes, but that just 918 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,320 Speaker 2: come from unhealed wounds. I'm glad I could bring everybody, 919 00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 2: everybody together, I'm working through healing. Therapy has helped me 920 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 2: so much. Even so, and so I'm not gonna say 921 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,720 Speaker 2: their name publicly. I'm not letting anybody control my emotions anymore. 922 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:57,879 Speaker 2: I forgive her. And one day I'm gonna sit down 923 00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 2: and talk to her and let her know she hurt me, 924 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 2: but let her know I forgive her. I'm moving on 925 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 2: with life, with life, excuse me, and I'm going to 926 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 2: be happy. No one in this world will control how 927 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 2: I feel. So the more you heal, and you're like, 928 00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:14,200 Speaker 2: I just want to be happy. I don't want to 929 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 2: hold this. It doesn't feel good. You address it and 930 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:21,439 Speaker 2: you find the proper steps in tools to move through 931 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,880 Speaker 2: it and move forward. You don't have to forget, but 932 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 2: it's no more anger. You gotta let it go, and 933 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 2: you gotta find the tools that help you do that. 934 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:33,919 Speaker 2: Therapy honesty being real, Like, yes, I was angry. Yes, 935 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 2: I was jealous. Yes I was envious. Yes I was bitter. Yes, 936 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 2: this upset me. Addressing those emotions being honest so you 937 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 2: can move through them and not hold on to them. 938 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: Oh that's good. 939 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 2: Yeah.

Have you read, The 940 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 2: Untethered Soul? 941 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:52,240 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, Carl, you listen my tailor, one of my tailors. 942 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 1: He actually gave me that book a few years ago 943 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: to read. 944 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 2: It's so good. 945 00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 946 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 2: It shows you how to just let go, go, be 947 00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 2: in the moment. If we were really just in this moment, 948 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 2: we would have no issues because I'm just sitting here 949 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 2: with you. I'm not thinking about what I'm gonna eat later. 950 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 2: I'm not thinking about where I gotta go. I'm not 951 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,240 Speaker 2: thinking about my nap, I'm not thinking about it I'm tired, 952 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 2: I'm not thinking. I'm just here with Crystal, be where 953 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 2: your feet are, be in the moment. And when you 954 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 2: do that, you can forgive and let go. 955 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,440 Speaker 1: Yes, so good. Now, how would you grade yourself on 956 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 1: forgiving yourself? 957 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 2: Man? 958 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: Because I know for me it's harder. I'm harder on 959 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 1: myself than I am among other people. I can be like, Okay, 960 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 1: that's fine, whatever, move on. But when it comes to me, 961 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:32,520 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm harder on myself than I am 962 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: on others. 963 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 2: A recent situation about a year year and a half ago, 964 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 2: it took me I probably went from an F to 965 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:43,799 Speaker 2: now a year and a half later, I'm at like 966 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 2: a C A B. Because you'd be like, why would 967 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 2: you do that? How could you be so stupid when 968 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 2: you allowed that person to do that? Like you beat 969 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 2: yourself up on what you allowed, but you only did 970 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 2: what you knew you can only do with the tools 971 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 2: and the wisdom you have in that sea. That's I 972 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,239 Speaker 2: thought I was. I was being the best version of 973 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 2: myself that I could be then. So with forgiving myself, 974 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 2: I'm much better now. But I have been hard on myself, 975 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 2: Like and you gotta stop. You gotta be like you're 976 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 2: bullying yourself, Like you're being a bully. You're being a 977 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,360 Speaker 2: bully to you. You wouldn't say this to anybody else. 978 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 2: That was dumb. I would never say that to you 979 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 2: if you if you told me, even if it was 980 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 2: a dumb decision, I wouldn't be like, friend, that's dumb. 981 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,919 Speaker 2: I'd be like, why'd you do that? It's okay? Though, 982 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 2: I would I would comfort you, and I would let 983 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,239 Speaker 2: you know it's gonna be okay. So I think we 984 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 2: need to extend the same grace to ourselves. Yeah, so 985 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:36,320 Speaker 2: I'm better we forgiving myself. 986 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: I love that. I love that.
