And today we have our guest Catherine. Yes, 5 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: we are so excited to be speaking with this lady. 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: We're chatting with Katherine. We're gonna hear all about the 7 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: group date Rose, all about everything that went on. But 8 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: first before we bring here on, Becca, what were your 9 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 1: talkts on this episode? My thoughts on this epode? Okay, 10 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 1: number one, I want to say this, I feel like 11 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: I really like this group of women. I think we're 12 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: seeing more of like this camaraderie between them and this 13 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: support system, which I think is so important I think 14 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: for any cast member in this scenario, because you're so 15 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 1: removed from like your normal life and your core group 16 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: of people, that they really are leaning on each other 17 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: and supporting one another, which I personally love to see. 18 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: I feel like I had a lot of that on 19 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: my season two and it's kind of good to be 20 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: able to witness that instead of like all the cattiness 21 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: and the fighting, which I'm sure that will come eventually, 22 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: but that was like the standout thing for me in 23 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: this episode what about you? I Okay, that's so interesting 24 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: that you bring that up, because the candianness in the fighting, 25 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: I think it always comes. But it's so interesting to 26 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: just like watch these episodes because one, I do feel 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: like with this season we're getting a little bit more 28 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: of like background information on the contestants, just with even 29 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 1: like how the editing is going. But also it's so 30 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: interesting to see like the whole concept when you're in 31 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 1: a position and you're all dating the same person and 32 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: you're human and you have emotions, but like when they're like, 33 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: well are you really happy for them? When someone else 34 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: gets like the group date rows or they get chosen 35 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: to go on the one on one, or they get pulled, 36 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: or they kiss Zack for the first time. It's so 37 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: interesting because there was a conversation between the women of 38 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: how can you actually be genuinely that happy? Like they're 39 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: dating the same person you're dating. What are your thoughts 40 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: on that? I feel like I'm the wrong person to 41 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: ask because when I was a contestant, I was that 42 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 1: girl and I loved so many of the girls, and 43 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: I feel like we formed really great friendships that I 44 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: was like I'm so happy you get to go on 45 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: the state, you go explore and have fun. And maybe 46 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: maybe it was a little bit because and this is 47 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: a little bit hard to explain, but like when you're 48 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: constantly filming, like the days are really long, especially like 49 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: when you get a one on one date or a 50 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: group date, like it's a lot. You're constantly in interviews 51 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: or having girl chads or talking with the lead and 52 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: there's like really no downtime. So maybe a part of 53 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: it was like, oh, I don't have to go on 54 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: a date, and this girl gets you on the one 55 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: on one and now I can kind of relax. Like 56 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: maybe there was some of that in the back of 57 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: my mind, but I really, for the most part, was 58 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: happy for some of the girls. Maybe it's a Minnesota 59 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: thing because I feel I feel very much similar where 60 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: it's not like this over the top excitement because you're 61 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: still there to like seek it out, but you also 62 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 1: enter the situation knowing the circumstances and so it's kind 63 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: of almost like an open relationship. And so it's like 64 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 1: if I just sat there, it was pissed off every 65 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: time somebody was going on a date, like I know, 66 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 1: I'm not going to go on every date. You don't 67 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: get to go on every possible It's not possible. So 68 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: it's like I can't sit and be just miserable there 69 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: was I'll be miserable every second that I'm there. So yeah, 70 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: it's just interesting to hear the girls just kind of 71 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: chat back and forth about that whole concept because it 72 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: really is about right well. And two, I understand where 73 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: it would be very off putting later on in the 74 00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: season when you actually really establish a connection you've spend 75 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: any sort of a lone time with the lead. I 76 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: understand why at that point you'd be like, oh, I 77 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: don't want to see him kissing anyone else, and I 78 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: don't want to hear about this magical date you had. 79 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: But right now it's week one. They like haven't even 80 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: unpacked their bags in the mansion, and so I'm like, 81 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: just roll with the punches again. You you said it best, 82 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: like you know what you're getting into. It's kind of 83 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: like this open relationship, and so yeah, I'm like, give 84 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: it time. It's only going to get harder. So like, 85 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: try not to put so much stress and anxiety on 86 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: that situation right now, because it's like you just just 87 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: embrace this craziness that it is, and you're going to 88 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: be happier in the long run, I think, right, But 89 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: did you did you peep the comment? Someone said? I 90 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: don't even know who it was because someone was interviewing. 91 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: It was like a voiceover, but all the girls were 92 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: showing like running out of the mansion to like we 93 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: finally get to get out of the house. I'm like, 94 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 1: we're just getting started, y'all. Yeah, we'll just be away 95 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: till week three, Okay. Can we have about some of 96 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: the conversations. There were like little snippets throughout this episode 97 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: which I actually loved, Like one was about the kissing 98 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: And actually, I'm excited to have Catherine on today because 99 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: she made a comment where she's like, I didn't realize 100 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: that there's not always tongue when you kiss someone. I 101 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: really want to ask her about that because I'm like, 102 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: are you constantly shoving your tongue in his mouth? Or 103 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: like how do we feel about a little peck or 104 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 1: you know, And so I want to pick her brain 105 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: about that one. And then we have to talk about 106 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: this conversation about how exposed you are in front of 107 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: your partner in terms of bodily functions. I think it 108 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: was like the last the last little bit of the 109 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: episode where the girls were talking about like going to 110 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: the bathroom in front of your partner and farting in 111 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: front of your partner, and I need to know we're 112 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: didn't stand on this. It is so funny because the 113 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: show is about it is about romance and love and drama, 114 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: but you see these women with just lavish dresses and 115 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: these beautiful dates and all these things. I'm also really 116 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: enjoying the relatability because we were like last episode it 117 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: was the keegles, it was Christina talking about the keegles, 118 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 1: and now we're talking about wait do you not used 119 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: to do you expelt like bodily fluids? How do you 120 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: do these different things? So we're definitely tapping into the 121 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: relable side, which I appreciate I and I love it 122 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: too because keep in mind, like when you're seeing these 123 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: women on the big screen, they're all glammed up. They 124 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: always look good. They're in their heels, their gowns, full 125 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: makeup hair. But like, and you probably remember this too 126 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 1: when you lived with all the girls. Ever, like there's 127 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: only a couple of bathrooms. People go to the bathroom 128 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: with the doors open, like it's like and I've never 129 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: been in a sorority, so I can't even compare it. 130 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: I can't even like say that I know this, but 131 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: I can imagine it's like kind of like a sorority 132 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: where it's like, you know, you just like get used 133 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: to each other and how bodies operate, and like when 134 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: you live with somebody twenty four or seven, especially with 135 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: that many people, like you're going to get to know 136 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: each other pretty quick. And so I love that they 137 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: have this conversation, but I need to know how do 138 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: you feel? Where do you stand in terms of going 139 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: to the bathroom or farting in front of a partner? Okay, 140 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: so this is oh my gosh, I see I already. 141 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: Really it's not that I don't get uncomfortable, but it 142 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: was it's just more of it. I've lived with a 143 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: person that I was dating and they spoke about it 144 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: all the time, and I didn't really have I don't 145 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: have an issue if other people are speaking about it, 146 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: but like I'm never documenting or announcing when I'm going 147 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: to the restroom or I don't like leave the door open. 148 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: But I will say, like I side with the girls 149 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: who are like one of the girls was like, I 150 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: just hold it in, and I'm like, that sounds so painful, 151 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: especially if you're living with somebody, dating and day out 152 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: like that. There there comes a time and I'm all about, like, 153 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: you know, keeping it still sexy and like, don't giving 154 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: everything away. But like also if you're living with somebody, 155 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: we're all human, we all understand, but it just takes 156 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: some of us longer than others. So yeah, you know, yeah, 157 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: you just I'm on the longer side. Yeah, there's nothing 158 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: wrong with that. What were your thoughts though on with 159 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: Christina and going to Zach's like family and how she 160 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: handled it and all of that stuff. Um, I mean, 161 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: I thought she handled it fine, And I think I 162 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: could see why that date was set up for her 163 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: in a sense, you know, like there was this whole 164 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: story about her wanting to open up to him and 165 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: like having deeper conversations with him in the evening portion 166 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: about her being a mom and having her beautiful daughter, 167 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: and so I think the entire date was teet up 168 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 1: very nicely for that, and I think I think Zach, 169 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: I actually like how he handled it and responded. I 170 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: can appreciate him, you know, taking a step back and 171 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: taking a moment being like, you know, I want kids 172 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: one day, but right now, I don't know if that's 173 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: for me. And I appreciate that he didn't just say 174 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: the perfect thing of like it's okay, like it'll work 175 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: itself out. I like that he was like it scares 176 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: me and that's terrifying, and I want to know, like 177 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: if you're going to be the right one for me, 178 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: like I need to process potentially like bringing this child 179 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: into my life and being like this father figure and 180 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: that's got to be a lot to take in. I 181 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: don't know, did you date anyone on your season that 182 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: had a child? M yes, Spencer Spencer had there were, Yes, 183 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: there were and unfortuble I don't know. Unfortunately, unfortunately for him, 184 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: I didn't find out until later, and that just kind 185 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: of had more of it was it was a relationship 186 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: that moved out a slower point where Christina really brought 187 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: it up right away, right, and I do. I do 188 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: respect that, and I also respect the way that Christina 189 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: said I understand, like this is my world, but I 190 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: also understand that this is a lot to process, and 191 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 1: I understand that if this is not something that you're 192 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: ready for right now. She gave him that space to 193 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: have those feelings as well. But throwing kids into this mix, 194 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: it really is difficult for both parties because you don't 195 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: as a parent, I'm sure you're away from your you're 196 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: away from your kid. You don't want to just bring 197 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: just anyone into their lives. You want to make sure 198 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: that they're ready as well. But then as a lead, 199 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: you have to go through this whole concept of I 200 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 1: have to keep them here, and what if I keep 201 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: them away from their kid and I don't select them, 202 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: then I'm just wasted not only their time, but someone 203 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: else's time. It's really tricky. Did you have anybody on 204 00:10:54,960 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: your season? No, from what I can remember, remember I 205 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: don't think any of the men had kids, so I 206 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: never had to encounter that. And and I like, I 207 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: don't know how I would have responded, you know, like 208 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: I would have needed I'm somebody who like needs time 209 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: to process things like something big like that, So I 210 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: don't know, like even in one night, Like I don't 211 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 1: know where I would have been in my headspace of 212 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: like can I give somebody this rose right now? It's 213 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: and I think he you know, he obviously saw something 214 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: there with her, I think that, and he seems like 215 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: he was intrigued with her night one, you know, the 216 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: party bus. They had like more alone time than most 217 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: of the other women did, and so he's definitely seen 218 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: a connection in a spark there with her. But I 219 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: think I'm glad that she brought it up early on 220 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: because I think now they're both going to be like 221 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: hyper aware moving forward of is this going to be 222 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: the right fit and if it's not. I think that 223 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: they are both, from what I've seen, mature enough to 224 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: be able to handle that conversation and part ways amicably, 225 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: I would hope. But yeah, it's gotta be tough. I again, 226 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: I never dealt with it, so I don't even know. 227 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: I can't even speak on it. But um, one more 228 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: thing before we bring Catherine, because I'm really excited to 229 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: have her on. But I just have to give a 230 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: shout out to all of the judges on that first 231 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: group date for the big bitch energy group date. Um latto, Wait, 232 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: what didn't I just say big bitch, big bitch okay, 233 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: friendly networks too? Oh my god? Am I getting big 234 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 1: dick energy confused with bad bitch energy? Okay? Um? Oh 235 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,959 Speaker 1: for the bad Bitch Group Date. I, you know, it's 236 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 1: always fun scene familiar faces. We've seen Taj recently, we've 237 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: seen Victoria recently. But Courtney Robertson I you know, see 238 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: what you want about her. She rocked the boat on 239 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: ben Planic season, but I personally loved her. She was 240 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: so entertaining. I'm so glad that she was brought back 241 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: on for this date. It was a perfect fit. It 242 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,719 Speaker 1: was so good to see her again. So Courtney, I 243 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 1: could have had more of you, and I really wish 244 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: we saw more of that date because I'm sure that 245 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: there's so much that took place that we just couldn't 246 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: fit into this episode. And I'm sure they had some 247 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,839 Speaker 1: great feedback, great comments. But it was fun to see 248 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: all of those judges together. But now, Michelle, we got 249 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 1: to bring on miss Group Date, Rose Winner herself.

Yeah, so I was like one of 277 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: the people that came in really last minute. You know, 278 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: dating is hard these days. All the things, you know, 279 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: if you don't want to, Like I was over it. 280 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: I was over the dating field in Tampa, and I'm like, 281 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: let's do something different. And my friends have always recommended, 282 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: like I go on The Bachelor because they watched the 283 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: show and they said I would be so very good. 284 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, let's just like try it 285 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: out and I'll apply. I think they had nominated me 286 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: like in previous seasons. I don't know if the combination 287 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: effect had anything to do with it, but they called 288 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: me ten days later and they're like, well, we start 289 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: filming in like a month, so we have to start 290 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: this ball rolling. I'm like okay. And from then on 291 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: it was just like one thing after the other, and honestly, 292 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: throughout the whole process, I was like, there's no way 293 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: I can do this. I give up my life, like 294 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: stop everything, for everything on hold and go on. But 295 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, let me just keep going to see what 296 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: goes on with it and how much I might want 297 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: to do this more. And then they end up saying yes, 298 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: like two weeks before I flew out, so I was 299 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: pretty much on a flank plane within six weeks, five 300 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: to six weeks of the whole process starting, which is 301 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: pretty crazy because there's a lot of goesten to it. Yeah, 302 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: but yeah, and then and end up being a blessing. 303 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: So I'm happy I decided to do that. I had 304 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: you watched the show before you were nominated. I watched 305 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: a few seasons. I watched Hannah Brown's and then Peter's, 306 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: and then I stopped for a while, and I really 307 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: I've watched a few oisodes of Paradise, but um, and 308 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: then I started watching a few of Gabby and Rachel's 309 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: but I just really didn't have like the time to 310 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: keep up with everything. Oh. Absolutely, Have you had an 311 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: idea of like kind of what you were about to 312 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: get intactly? Yeah? Okay, and so I've been just Clayton's 313 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: season when I started doing this, I'm like, okay, well, 314 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: let me watch the most recent season so I have 315 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 1: some type of a close idea of what's going on. 316 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: And that was the one I like watched art to finish. 317 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: I just kind of was like, let me see what 318 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: to wear. Was there at any point when you're watching 319 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: like Clayton season or any of the previous seasons where 320 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: you were like, I'm scared shitless. I don't know if 321 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm cut out for this every first night episode and like, 322 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: no way, I'm not doing I can't. Yeah, Like it's 323 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: so crazy to think of how like your nerves are 324 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: and it still never prepares you, Like you can never 325 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: appare for that moment, like it was every episode I 326 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: saw at night Wine, I'm like, I can't do this. 327 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 1: This is crazy. It's such a different feeling. Okay, so 328 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: you go through this whole process like expedited, you decide that, 329 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: I mean, your nurse, you're taking time off to do this. 330 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 1: You get there, you're about to start, you know, start 331 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 1: the show. Your initial connection with Zach What was like that? 332 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: What was that like for you? Well, um, so I 333 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: obviously get out the limo and I'm like, okay, this 334 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 1: is happening. It wasn't for real until I saw him 335 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: standing there and our initial interaction was my little bit 336 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: with the sunscreen and all that, and they didn't show it, 337 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 1: but I actually sprayed him in the eyes. Um, so 338 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: that was good, sprayed him directly because I did it 339 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: back to him, So that was like great start awesome. Um, 340 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: but then we sat down and had our conversation. It 341 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: was still really nerve wracking because you're still getting to 342 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: the cameras and everything, and it was early on in 343 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: the night. But I just felt this like initial comfortability. 344 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: Like I I've asked him like the questions I need 345 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: to know obviously, are you like normal fine and like goofy? 346 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: But like overall I could tell he was just like 347 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: just as nervous as I was, And that almost sade 348 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: me feel comfortable too, because I'm like, Okay, we're both 349 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: like figuring this out together, so it'll be like a 350 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 1: thing for us. But yeah, um, yeah, I would say 351 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: that besides the spraying and the eyes, it was pretty 352 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: good first initial connection with him. Wait what level SPF 353 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 1: was it? Oh, of course fifty. You can't do anything. 354 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 1: She's like, it was ninety more. Otherwise it's a waste. 355 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: So there's obviously a lot that happens that night one, 356 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: and it's just a lot to process, not only meeting 357 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 1: thirty other women and this man that you could potentially 358 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: get engaged to at the end of this. But like 359 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: like you said, the lights, the cameras, there's just so 360 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: much comotion. What is one thing that really stuck out 361 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: to you that night like that you were pleasantly surprised about, 362 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: or like any connections with the women right off the 363 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: bat that you really fell into right away. Yeah, I 364 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: would say that that night I was really pleasantly surprised 365 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 1: by how nice everybody was. Honestly, there wasn't really any 366 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 1: thing that I felt like personally that was making me 367 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: super uncomfortable or feeling like targeted or like. I know 368 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: that emotions can be high and people can be a 369 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: little bit out of character, but I was still happy 370 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: to feel like an initial like, Okay, these are girls 371 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: girls too. I became friends with Jess right away. We 372 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: were both from Florida, so she was already sitting down 373 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 1: and we immediately clicked and pretty much didn't leave each 374 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 1: other's side all night, her and Bailey and Genevie as well. 375 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: So US four we're just kind of like in our 376 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 1: own little corner. But it was nice to feel welcomed 377 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: and never like uncomfortable about speaking how I was feeling. 378 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's a long night and you have you 379 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: just pretty much spend the whole time if you're not 380 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: with Zach like talking to each they understanding who each 381 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,120 Speaker 1: other are too. So everyone was really nice. I feel 382 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 1: like everyone kind of we were all kind of similar 383 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: in a way that did you keep your heels on 384 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: the entire evening? I did? I literally, I don't know. 385 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: Actually I kept my heels on the whole rose ceremony. 386 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 1: I took them off at one point during the night, 387 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: which is actually you're not supposed to do because on 388 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 1: your feet swell, so when you put it back on, 389 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: you're like struggling ten times harder. And I learned that 390 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: that night. So yeah, yeah, no, I kept them on 391 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: the whole Rose ceremony somehow, but they did come off 392 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: at one point. I love it, truly. Never Nope, once 393 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 1: they come off, you can't guarantee you'll not be able 394 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: to get them back on. And s okay, we're getting 395 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 1: into this week's episode. Um, week two, you made it 396 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: through your first rose ceremony and you are now about 397 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,479 Speaker 1: to go on your first group date. Are like, what 398 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: were the thoughts going through your mind? I was very 399 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: overwhelmed but excited at the same time. You know, we 400 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: got the first group date, and that was really fun 401 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: that I was able to see him right away, because 402 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: I know he was making time for everybody that week, 403 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: but it felt good that I was going to be 404 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: on the first one. So we were already excited about 405 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: moving in and then they're like, already and you're leaving. 406 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, perfect, I'm already like, like my adrenaline's already high. 407 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: So I was really excited to see him and just 408 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 1: see what we were about to do. You know, we 409 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: didn't know until we got there. But the date card 410 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: seems fun. Yeah, so okay, I know that we like 411 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: I say we like I'm still part of the season. 412 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: I'm obviously not, but like, and I'm sure Michelle you 413 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 1: probably did this too, but like everyone gets the group 414 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: date cards, and there's always like there's always a hint 415 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: in like the one sentence that they write to you. 416 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: Did you guys like have any idea or like decide 417 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: like come up with fun ideas of what this might 418 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: be or were you guys going and completely blind? Oh 419 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 1: my gosh. The things that we came up with all 420 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,239 Speaker 1: the way were insane. I'm trying to remember what they 421 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: worked so summer. They were outrageous. But I think we 422 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: were saying it was gonna be like Suma wrestling, like 423 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: bag wearing those things, and we were gonna do something 424 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: like that or something to do with also, um, what's 425 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 1: the thing where you're like on a bowl something. I 426 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 1: don't know why that came up something in the taper, 427 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: just think that. But most I was thinking we were 428 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: gonna be like in those big Suma wrestling people. Yeah, 429 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: like that. So what were your thoughts the like when 430 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 1: you walk into you see the stage and Loto comes out? 431 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: What was everyone thinking in that moment? Oh? I gosh. 432 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: There's so many thoughts going at once that it's hard 433 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: to put into words to what was exactly happening. Um, 434 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: But I think initially I was just like, holy shit, 435 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,479 Speaker 1: what's about to happen? We're about to walk her ust 436 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: to stage? Are you about to walk her us stage? Like? 437 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 1: She's beautiful? Zach looks great. It was so much at once, 438 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: but we had still no idea what we were about 439 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: to do. The venue was really they had all these 440 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: different colors and stuff that made it really cool. But 441 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: there was a lot of emotions at that point, still 442 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: very nerve wracking. I assumed somehow we were gonna be 443 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 1: up there, didn't know how, but we were gonna make 444 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: our way. Did you feel like there's gonna be like fashion? 445 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 1: Did you feel like they were pressure like a lot 446 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: of pressure on your shoulders from the guests m finished. 447 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: Some people seem to feel so initially, like when I 448 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: obviously their icons and there somewhe that I felt like 449 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,719 Speaker 1: they were coming unless to like at first give us 450 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: like advice, like help us kind of get into our 451 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: own and like feel comfortable being ourselves. So the pressure 452 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 1: was I didn't really feel it necessarily. I think I 453 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: was feeling more pressure like I don't want to make 454 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: for in front of act but because I don't know 455 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 1: if I'm gonna trip on the way all down that run, right, 456 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,959 Speaker 1: But I really felt like a sense of like they 457 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 1: were there to help us kind of, So I wasn't 458 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: really feeling so much they were there to like not 459 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 1: be in our corner. Yeah. So, just to give a 460 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,439 Speaker 1: recap to any of our listeners who maybe missed this episode, 461 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 1: the guest judges were we had Tajuan Corney Robertson, who 462 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: was from ben Plantic season, and then Victoria Fuller.

I 493 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 1: like love a good dance party that like we were 494 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: all on the stage and Zach was like showing his 495 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: side too, So that was really fun to seek me initially, 496 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: I need to ask this. He is not a good dancer, right, 497 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 1: It wasn't just me, you know, right. I thought it 498 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: was so precious. I was like, oh my god, like 499 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: I can help you. Like, let's I was standing next time, 500 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: and I'm like, okay, go with me, like we got this, 501 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: Like I let me help you. But it was cute. 502 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,919 Speaker 1: I thought I was endearing. I made for effort. Yeah 503 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: it was. He was trying right like yeah, yeah, I 504 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: think you're all like. So it was everyone's first day, 505 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: like it was everyone's first moment coming off a night one. 506 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: So it was so great for us to have that 507 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: time to like kind of get into our own before 508 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: we're about to go do some things that were very vulnerable. 509 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: But that was my favorite part personally. And then I 510 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: would say that honestly, I was really surprised by Brianna's story. 511 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: She told a really heartfelt story about how she came 512 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 1: into who she is today and like you know, making 513 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: her own company and where she lived in different countries 514 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: and stuff, And I thought that was like the definition 515 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: of being at that pitch. To be able to do 516 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,679 Speaker 1: that is like alone and to be who you are 517 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: right now and for us to really like I would 518 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 1: have never known that unless she opened up about it, 519 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 1: So I thought that was really humbling and awesome. It 520 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: is such a vulnerable environment where it's oh, you're being 521 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 1: vulnerable with the person that you're seeing if there's going 522 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: to be a future, or you're being vulnerable with like 523 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 1: an activity that you typically don't do. What's more nerve 524 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: wracking for you to open up in front of Zach 525 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 1: or to open up in front of the girls and 526 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: judges and judges. There's a lot of people. There's a 527 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: lot of people there and the cameras. You know, yeah, 528 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: you're like just a couple of million people. No big deal, 529 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 1: no big deal. Oh all in all, I think in 530 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: that moment, if I can go back, I was feeling 531 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: the most vulnerable and like worried obviously with Zach because 532 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 1: like I was really because I knew there were so 533 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: many moving parts, so many eyes at once, Like I 534 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: made it a point to only like focus it on 535 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: him and like make sure I was talking only to 536 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: him when I was telling my story, and like intentional 537 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: eye contact and like that kind of helped me feel 538 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: better and like a little bit more comfortable when I could. 539 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: It helped me like block everything else out. But in 540 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: a way, it was still really scary. Girls. I feel 541 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: like even then, even though it looks like there's been 542 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: no time pass, we obviously spent like eighteen hours together 543 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: all night, like we've already developed friendships, Like we had 544 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: a whole bus ride there and everything we moved in together. 545 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:17,919 Speaker 1: So I felt at ease with them too. Yeah, but yeah, 546 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: did you have any strategy going in throughout the day, 547 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: because you know, sometimes like people on group dates will 548 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: be like I need to stand out, like I need 549 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: to make a name for myself, I have to do 550 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: something wild or like was that kind of your mindset 551 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: or were you just like I'm just gonna have fun 552 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: and see where this goes, Like what was the strategy there? 553 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 1: I truly just wanted to have fun with it because 554 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: I felt like if I was just like being myself 555 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: and having fun, then the best thing can come out 556 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: of it. I think if I thought too hard, it 557 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: probably act like a weirdo, so and I know that 558 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: about myself. So I was really just like going with 559 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: the flow, not trying to think too much into it. 560 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: Like I said, I was making it like a point 561 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: to only focus in on him and help block everything 562 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: else out and help ease my in that way. But yeah, no, 563 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: there wasn't really any strategy. You can't really make strategy 564 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: at that point. Social idea, Yeah, you have no idea 565 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: what's going on. You've never been on a group date before. Like, 566 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 1: you're just like whatever happens whatever. Honestly, if anything, I 567 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 1: was trying to play it safe because I didn't want 568 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: it to be like too much, right. So yeah, well 569 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 1: you conquered it regardless. You made it through the whole 570 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: day portion of the group date, and then now you 571 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: are heading into your first cock to a party. What 572 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: was going through your head when you're going into that 573 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: night portion. Going into the night portion, I would say 574 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: I was really still really excited because I did have 575 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: a lot of fun on that date. And I think 576 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: the activities that we did kind of helped us all 577 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 1: kind of get into our own and feel comfortable with 578 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: ourselves because there was a lot of parts that came 579 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: with it, and in turn, that made us be able 580 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: to have more comfortable conversations with Zach. So I was 581 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: feeling like I was about to just be able to 582 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: have more serious or deeper moments at him. So I 583 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: was excited to just keep growing in our relationship after 584 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: having a whole date like that, And um, we were tired, 585 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: for sure, but yeah, still like your gentleman is running, 586 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: so like you like, get how tired you are, You're 587 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 1: having he right, So it seemed like everything was going 588 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: swimmingly between Zak and his connections and his conversations with 589 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: the women. It seemed and this is something too, I 590 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: called it at the beginning. I loved the camaraderie between 591 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: the women. It seems like you all really supported each 592 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: other and you know, you don't always show it did 593 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: very like real friendships. Um, so it all seemed great 594 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: until Tajuan comes in with the curveball and she ended 595 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: up crashing the group date to pursue something with Zach 596 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: and I think it was Kat who came back and 597 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: broke that news to you. Correct, So like as the group, 598 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: like this collective group of women together, you know, we're 599 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 1: already all trying to do the same man. What was 600 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: it like hearing that that, like potentially one other bad 601 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: bitch just came in to maybe steal him? Um? Okay, Honestly, 602 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: my first thought was like, can you come back tomorrow, 603 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: like we're it's really late in the night, like we 604 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: can have a conversation about this, Like like I was 605 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: just like, oh, I can't believe this is happening right now. Also, 606 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: I didn't know actually in that current moment that she 607 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: was there to pursue him, right, Like we just hear 608 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: Tajuan's here, and I'm like, okay, so this like part 609 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: of the day portion, like what's going on? Like m 610 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: are we are she here to pursue him? Or is 611 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: she here to just like come kid us more corners? 612 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: Like I really we didn't know at that moment until 613 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: we went over to her and asked what was up. 614 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: But when she Kat first told us, we were all 615 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: just like huh, like what's happening? Right? But yeah, we 616 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: could have we had an idea, but it was still 617 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: not not confirmed the whole purpose of her coming was 618 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: and then and you didn't find that out until you 619 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: all went to chat with her. Correct, Yeah, we're okay, okay, 620 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: So well, I think we were having some mis community. 621 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: We didn't know if she was talking to him, and 622 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: we didn't want to like interrupt, you know, so we 623 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: didn't know like when or how we could walk over there. 624 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: But finally we were all just like, okay, let's just 625 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: go see what's going on, right, And then that's when 626 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: we asked her, and still didn't really get a direct answer. 627 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 1: It was mostly like just being told we didn't bring it. 628 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: So that's what I got caught like, that's what I 629 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 1: got caught off guard with. And as a viewer, I 630 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: was still in that moment thinking that she was just 631 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: coming in to give advice. But even then, I'm like 632 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,959 Speaker 1: that it's not how you relay that. So I'm not 633 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: sure how that point was, but I'm curious of your 634 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: thoughts of one when she said her piece about how 635 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: you guys performed, and then it turned this transitions into 636 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: all of you can gout and we'll see you processing. Wait, 637 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: so you actually are here to talk to him, But 638 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: she made this comment. She said, if you feel and shoot, 639 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 1: I don't know if this was an interview or not, 640 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: or if it's directly to you guys, but she said, 641 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: if you feel that you're uncomfortable, or if you're uncomfortable 642 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: by my conversation with Zach, then that says a lot 643 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: about who you are, kind of hinting like, then you're 644 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: not a bad bitch, then you don't deserve to be here. 645 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: But then she turns around directly says, these girls should 646 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: be feeling nervous that I'm joining the competition. So it 647 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: was very like hype or critical because it's like you, 648 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: she's telling you guys to not be scared and to 649 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: not be threatened, and then goes back and says, oh, 650 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: you should be threatened what we are? Just what was 651 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: your reaction about how she approached this entire situation of 652 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: coming in. You know, being a bad bitch doesn't mean 653 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: you have to be mean. Thank you. You know. I'm 654 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: really happy that that was shown through because that's I 655 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: don't know if it was caught up that I did 656 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: say something like that. I'm like, well, this isn't badage energy, 657 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: this is like mean girl energy. This isn't really like 658 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: a way in which you approach a situation, or at 659 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 1: least I wouldn't. Actually in those moments too, it was 660 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 1: really chaotic, you know, there was a lot going on, 661 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: and also she wasn't really giving us straightforward answers, similar 662 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: to like her almost contradicting herself. But I was trying 663 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: to think, like, Okay, maybe she's a little insecure, or 664 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: maybe she doesn't want to talk about how she's hed 665 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 1: her maybe she just want to hurt our feelings, Like 666 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 1: maybe that's why it was hard for her to I'm 667 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: trying to give her the benefit of the doubt all 668 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: in all, Like maybe she didn't want to like say 669 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: that directly for multiple reasons, but definitely something I did 670 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: when it started to process of how she was approaching it, 671 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: I was like, this is just not a very good 672 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 1: display of like that energy. This is like kind of mean, 673 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: like you're not really being very nice to us. You're 674 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 1: like doing it in a way by kind of insulting 675 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: us through trying to build your relationship with him. So 676 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 1: that was But at the end of the day, I mean, 677 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: I wasn't here to like express myself or explain myself 678 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: like she basically was trying to tell us too. I think, like, 679 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: if you have a problem with it, like tell me. 680 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: But we were all just like it's not really worth 681 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: the energy because I'm not really sure how much of 682 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: what I'm going to say is going to be processed 683 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: the way we're trying to say, because she just misinterpreting 684 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 1: what we were saying, and I'm like, it's just not 685 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: worth it. Yeah, you know, well at the end of 686 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 1: the day too, like she can have her opinions as 687 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: a judge of like how you all handled the group 688 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 1: date and like what the goal was. But like, ultimately 689 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: this is Zach's gotta hate saying journey, like I need 690 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 1: a new word for journey. But like he's yeah, and 691 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 1: so he's there to find somebody at the end of this, 692 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: and like if he liked the date and what you 693 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 1: women were bringing to the table, like truly, that's all 694 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 1: that matters. And it's kind of like his final say, um, 695 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,439 Speaker 1: I do want to know though, So obviously we see 696 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 1: Zach let Tajuan know that, like it just wouldn't be 697 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 1: fair to you women he sends her home. How would 698 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 1: you have felt, though, on the flip side, if he 699 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: had asked her to stay. Do they that would have switched, 700 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: like your view of him and like what he wanted 701 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: out of this, I don't think it would Like it 702 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't adjust my view of who he is as a partner. 703 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: I think that point in the process would still early. 704 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: So if you do feel something with him or with 705 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 1: her and she feels it vice versa, I like, go 706 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,399 Speaker 1: for it. It's not my place to tell you who 707 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: to not pursue at that point too. I mean, yeah, 708 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: it's not really unfair. We gave up our lives a 709 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 1: lot right now and she hasn't maybe a little bit 710 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 1: less sleep, But at the end of the day, this 711 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: is a show about finding our husband our wife, and 712 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 1: if you feel like you could have something with that, 713 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: then I would say go for it. Also, I want 714 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: my partner to choose me over everything, So if he 715 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: was feeling like he she would say temptation, and I 716 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: still want him to choose me over that temptation too, 717 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: So I would want her to be there if he 718 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: was feeling in that moment. Yeah, but it was like 719 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: still early enough for I don't know if it was 720 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,879 Speaker 1: like a necessarily sting so much you know of him, 721 00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: bring on the girl beautiful. That's what I was thinking too, Like, 722 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: thank goodness, it was the very first group day and 723 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: week one. I'm like, I don't know if if either 724 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 1: of you watched Caitlin Bristow's season a couple of years ago, 725 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 1: but like Nick Fielle came in, I think it was 726 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 1: like week four, like they had are like the team, 727 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: not the team, but like had already been traveling, like 728 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: they were already in her they were already in a 729 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 1: different city. Yeah, before I came in. I came in 730 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 1: on week three, and then Heather came in on like 731 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 1: week six, yeah, or something like. It was the group 732 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: of you, like a group of you where obviously it 733 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 1: was like no from I'm saying saying, right, but Heather, 734 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: Heather camean. Remember how Heather came in one? Yeah, she 735 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: came in like week six or seven. I can't it 736 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense at that point to do it because 737 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,239 Speaker 1: but but she kept in, That's what I'm saying, Like, 738 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:55,799 Speaker 1: you know, Matt sent her other home, um, Zach sent 739 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,919 Speaker 1: Taj home, But like Caitlin kept Nick tell the edge, 740 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 1: he was final too, Like yeah, so what's so difficult 741 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 1: in those situations too? Those because when you're only in 742 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: front of the lead's face for five ten minutes, sometimes 743 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: they can't see or pick out different like um alarming things, 744 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: cannot use flags. What's another word for that? Becca? Just 745 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, you can it's it's a 746 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: red flag or liked. But then right, so like him 747 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: keeping her, even if he saw a brief connection, it 748 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: would also really think like made it a lot more 749 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: difficult for some of the women there to work through 750 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: it because the way that she approached you guys, And 751 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: so then a lot of that you guys would have 752 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: been like, oh, so he goes for people who handle 753 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 1: or treat other people in this manner or just communicate 754 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: in this man I would but at what all the 755 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 1: bad feelings? But he also didn't see that part, so 756 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: he kind of did himself a favor for it would 757 00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 1: have the way that he did. I think it would 758 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: have definitely been a reflection of who he wants in 759 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: a person at the end of the day. You know, 760 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what side he saw her, but just yeah, 761 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: the way she communicated wasn't really the most night like 762 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 1: the very pleasant, So it would have reflected on him 763 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: on what he wants to definitely. Yeah, Okay, we were 764 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: all good. Well you were all good because you ended 765 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 1: up getting that group date rose that night. Did you 766 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: expected did you think you he would handle that rose 767 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 1: that evening? No? I really had no idea. Honestly, when 768 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: he first said my name, like I didn't even hear it. 769 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,800 Speaker 1: But no, I definitely did not think that I was 770 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: going to get that rose that night, just because I mean, 771 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: I've grown to learn and love everyone already, so and 772 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: I know that everyone had some substance behind a conversation, 773 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: so I think everybody was on the same playing field 774 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 1: and it was like fair game for everyone to have 775 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: gotten that rose that night. It was awesome and I 776 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 1: was very grateful and so happy and felt very validating 777 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 1: to receive. But I definitely was thinking like it could 778 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,279 Speaker 1: have been anybody you know, and it was at the 779 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: way end of the night everyone I was like, oh me, 780 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 1: you deserve it, you earn it. And coming from somebody 781 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,319 Speaker 1: who never once got a group date rose, I need 782 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: to know what it feels like, Michelle, did you ever 783 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,399 Speaker 1: get one? I'm sure you did. Okay, can you guys 784 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 1: tell me what that feels like. I'm happy to share, 785 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,200 Speaker 1: but I think especially in the beginning, and when you're 786 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 1: on a group with you know, nine or eight other girls, 787 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: you do feel really hurt and seen your most your 788 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 1: feelings for him and or for each other get validated, 789 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 1: and it makes you feel really like, Okay, I can 790 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: continue to be myself, like this is working, Like he's 791 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: feeling what I'm feeling right now, especially like he has 792 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: to compare it to the other moments that he's had 793 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 1: to the other girls. But I am someone that's standing 794 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: out to him, and that makes me feel like more 795 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: ready to keep progressing and seeing where this goes. I 796 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: would say, if I could put one word, it's definitely validating. Yeah, 797 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: to just make you feel comfortable about your relationship and 798 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:16,399 Speaker 1: keep wanting to pursue it. Speaking of comfort in your relationships, 799 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:23,919 Speaker 1: I know exactly, speaking of comfortaships. There's been a lot 800 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: not even a lot just my mom in this season 801 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,239 Speaker 1: already that I think our fan favorites is just the 802 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: real rock conversation continues to roll after the credits, the 803 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 1: thing talking about key goals now to really talking about 804 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: people's comfort in their relationships with bodily fluids and functions. 805 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: Functions fluids, fun you, bodily unctions, I think it's either 806 00:41:56,560 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: where do you stand on this? Okay, well I think 807 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: we saw a little bit of where I stand on 808 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: it currently. Okay, this is my thought, Like, okay, I'm 809 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 1: a nurse, right, I can see every single thing come 810 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: out of you at once. It might be fine, but 811 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 1: you will just never know that that's like even happening 812 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 1: inside of me. So I don't know what it is 813 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 1: or why, but for some reason, I like just the 814 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 1: like of him thinking that that happens, like it makes 815 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: me constant, like I literally wait, okay, so I need 816 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 1: to know. And this is what I talked to Michelle Ian. 817 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: It might have been before we start of recording, but like, 818 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: have you ever lived with a man before?

All right, I've 821 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: lived it. I've lived with him. I think we were 822 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,399 Speaker 1: together for like two and a half years we lived 823 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 1: not we didn't live together very long, um, like maybe 824 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 1: like six months or so. But oh, okay, okay, he 825 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: doesn't know this at a story time, I'm adding myself. 826 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: But you know what, whatever, it's twenty twenty three, let's 827 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: do it. Um. There are ways around it okay. So 828 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: we lived on the first floor apartment. Somebody did not 829 00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,520 Speaker 1: leave every time you had to go to the bathroom. 830 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 1: If he was home and I had to go to 831 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: the bathroom. Usually, I'm telling you, I get consticated around 832 00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: the men, so it doesn't typically have to be a thing, 833 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: but sometimes whatever. Um, we lived on the first floor 834 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: was a lecture apartment, and if I really had to go, 835 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: I would go to the lobby restroom and go to 836 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: the bathroom there and I would be like, yeah. He 837 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: texted me to be like where are you, Like what happened? 838 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, the package thing is like just 839 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: take a long time. And my mom called me. I'm like, 840 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm on a long conversation, but really I was just 841 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 1: going to the bathroom. Oh my god, this sounds exhaust 842 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 1: It was easy when you're on the first floor and 843 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: it was a nice place. So I kind of like 844 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 1: had my own moment, you know. It was great, like 845 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: I could be in my own space. But he still 846 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 1: doesn't said that, so whatever, But there are ways for 847 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,359 Speaker 1: all the girls out there. They're still uncomfortable. I mean, 848 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: you gived time, given time we you want, okay, because 849 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,840 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm gonna like I feel I get that, 850 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,880 Speaker 1: like I can to that you want to be comfortable. 851 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 1: You're just exactly Oh my god, I feel like I'm 852 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: on a whole different page than you.

I mean, for what I've heard on previous seasons, 985 00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:41,520 Speaker 1: there are a lot of things here that are different 986 00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 1: than others, even in just the relationships amongst the women, 987 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 1: Like we're all very like nice to each other. There's 988 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,359 Speaker 1: no real like mean girl or Cattius that I can say. 989 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: And then there's some things that truly truly have happened 990 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 1: that have really never happened. So it's gonna be really 991 00:51:56,280 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: fun to watch that play out, right, Yeah, we're excited it. 992 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:03,799 Speaker 1: As Michelle said earlier, to tune in and just see 993 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,880 Speaker 1: how everything unfolds, see where you had you know, if 994 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 1: it's any indication of getting that first group date. Rose, 995 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: I have high hopes for you. I feel like you're 996 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 1: gonna make it pretty far hopefully. So one a couple 997 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 1: last things before we let you go. Every week we 998 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,360 Speaker 1: share a resource and then a rose and thorn. So 999 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,240 Speaker 1: basically the resource is just we think it's so important 1000 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: to keep our listeners informed and share important topics and 1001 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 1: resources that we love, and we always share these on 1002 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,560 Speaker 1: our Instagram so people can go back and easily find it. 1003 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 1: But I'll just kick it off. I'll have Michelle go 1004 00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,239 Speaker 1: and then we will let you rep that part up 1005 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:45,160 Speaker 1: if that's cool with you. But the one I'm going 1006 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,279 Speaker 1: to share this week, I actually somebody had DMed me 1007 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 1: this podcast recommendation and I gave the one that they 1008 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 1: gave a specific episode. But I think every it's geared 1009 00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:02,239 Speaker 1: towards parents, I would say, but honestly, like the one 1010 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:05,959 Speaker 1: that I listened to is geared towards anyone, especially people 1011 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 1: like me who are white. It's called three and thirty 1012 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:14,239 Speaker 1: and this episode is called how to Talk to Kids 1013 00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:17,799 Speaker 1: about Skin Tone and Race. And this episode the host 1014 00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 1: brings on a doctor. Her name is doctor Lacresha Barry, 1015 00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 1: and it focuses on giving children like words and tools 1016 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,839 Speaker 1: that they can actually use to have conversations and feel 1017 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 1: confident about skin tone and race, so it's not like 1018 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,720 Speaker 1: out of the norm for them, and even for people 1019 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:36,600 Speaker 1: who are a little bit older, you know, like I'm 1020 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: in my early thirties who haven't always had these conversations 1021 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 1: to just have you feel more comfortable and give you 1022 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: a starting point of like where you can start these 1023 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 1: conversations with people in your lives. It gives three takeaways 1024 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:53,120 Speaker 1: in thirty minutes. I really urge anyone to listen to it. 1025 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,880 Speaker 1: It's a quick list and it's only thirty minutes, but 1026 00:53:56,400 --> 00:54:00,480 Speaker 1: truly so beneficial to anyone at any age. So the 1027 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:05,439 Speaker 1: first takeaway is to reject the color blind approach, which 1028 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,680 Speaker 1: is basically like, oh I don't see color. The doctor 1029 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 1: here basically said, like that's not a solution. It's it's 1030 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,239 Speaker 1: basically like, you know, don't cut out like what you 1031 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:18,000 Speaker 1: want to talk about. The second takeaway is to normalize 1032 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 1: having these conversations and make them more consistent so they 1033 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,880 Speaker 1: can feel more natural and a lot of times, you know, 1034 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 1: like children, they're so curious and at such a young age, 1035 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:28,360 Speaker 1: like they ask a lot of questions and they just 1036 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 1: like notice things and say things differently than how adults would, 1037 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:34,680 Speaker 1: so to not shame them if they want to have 1038 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: conversations or like say something, and just to be able 1039 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,480 Speaker 1: to like construct those conversations to make them feel like 1040 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,240 Speaker 1: they're learning something and can take that in the future. 1041 00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:46,800 Speaker 1: And then the third tool is to actually invest in 1042 00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 1: racism education in order to gain a better understanding, so 1043 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:52,400 Speaker 1: it can't just be like a one and done thing 1044 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 1: of like, oh I just listened to this one podcast 1045 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:57,160 Speaker 1: or like I read this one book and that's it. 1046 00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: Like to continue to educate hate yourselves and like really 1047 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,080 Speaker 1: dive deep into the history of racism and why it's 1048 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:08,040 Speaker 1: so still so prevalent in like today's society, um, and 1049 00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 1: how education can be a tool to de weaponize the 1050 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,319 Speaker 1: topic of race and skin tone. It's it's so great. UM. 1051 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 1: I will definitely two or three, Like I think core 1052 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:24,200 Speaker 1: issues amongst everything that's been going on, especially when it 1053 00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 1: comes to having trying to navigate raising children, you know, 1054 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 1: in this era, and those are a lot of points 1055 00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 1: that I think you need to be addressed and talked about. 1056 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: And um, I love that that's a great tool for 1057 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:40,399 Speaker 1: everybody too. Yeah, I really enjoyed this episode, so again 1058 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:44,360 Speaker 1: I will link that on on Happy Hours Instagram on 1059 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: my Instagram. UM, such a good listen to anyone at 1060 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:51,279 Speaker 1: any age. So that is my resource, m Michelle. I 1061 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,440 Speaker 1: love it so much. It's such a great resource that 1062 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 1: I actually have the exact same one. Yeah. This person, Yeah, 1063 00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: this person messaged me as well, and I was able 1064 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 1: to actually DM back and forth with her a little 1065 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 1: bit and told her I'd give it a listen and 1066 00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:08,719 Speaker 1: be talking about it on the podcast. And they have 1067 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,399 Speaker 1: so many good episodes. They really do have so many 1068 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:13,719 Speaker 1: good episodes. But you know, I'm not going to go 1069 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,719 Speaker 1: and share the story of kind of what I talked 1070 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:20,160 Speaker 1: about with or her personal personal story that she was 1071 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 1: kind of talking to me about. But it really really 1072 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:28,439 Speaker 1: reminded and pointed to the fact that there are people 1073 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,080 Speaker 1: out here who are willing and wanting to break the 1074 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 1: cycle and acknowledging that they may have grown up in 1075 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: an environment that isn't as progressive and that it's a 1076 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 1: lot of work, but making sure that they're passing on 1077 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: tools to have these conversations. The biggest thing, similar Tobecca, 1078 00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:53,799 Speaker 1: what you spoke about is that we all not we all, 1079 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:55,560 Speaker 1: but a lot of us grew up with this whole 1080 00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:59,440 Speaker 1: concept of to Nazi color, and in that message, it 1081 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 1: was to really speak on everyone treating everybody regardless, and 1082 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:09,960 Speaker 1: that was the message. But as we kind of move forward, 1083 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:12,920 Speaker 1: it is actually really important to see color and to 1084 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 1: see the privilege that comes or does not come with 1085 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:21,600 Speaker 1: those things. And I loved how it was able to 1086 00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 1: touch on that because it seems like such an abrasive thing, like, no, 1087 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,560 Speaker 1: you should see color like you. But when you're seeing color, 1088 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 1: it's because you're truly taking a step back to put 1089 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 1: yourself and learn about that person's life or different communities 1090 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:40,080 Speaker 1: of people and what pressures or difficulties that they may have. 1091 00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:42,680 Speaker 1: So one hundred percent agree to check that one out, 1092 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 1: I believe. I don't know if you mentioned a Specca, 1093 00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 1: but Apple podcast is where you can find that one. 1094 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 1: That's where I listened to. I think that's great too, 1095 00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:53,760 Speaker 1: because you touched on the point of like, once you acknowledge, 1096 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:56,520 Speaker 1: once you start acknowledging things, it's when you can start 1097 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:58,800 Speaker 1: having some understanding. And I think a lot of people, 1098 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: but some people I've seen, they don't even want to 1099 00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:05,040 Speaker 1: acknowledge that we did grow up in a different era, 1100 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,440 Speaker 1: we did have different views and it does take time 1101 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 1: and energy. They just rather ignore it and not want 1102 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 1: to understand or put in the work to make sense 1103 00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 1: of everything that you know, people are trying to express 1104 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 1: to them. But by acknowledging color, you're acknowledging issues and 1105 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 1: then you can start having some understanding behind that to 1106 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:25,840 Speaker 1: be able to break the norms that we've already Yeah. Yeah, 1107 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 1: in order to acknowledge a difference, do you have to 1108 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:32,200 Speaker 1: acknowledge that there is difference? Right? It's a real So 1109 00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:34,959 Speaker 1: Kat with that, if you have a resource you would 1110 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 1: like to share with our listeners, we would love that 1111 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:41,840 Speaker 1: as well. So I do. Minus also a podcast It 1112 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 1: is called We Can Do Hard Things and the host 1113 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 1: is gun and Doyle. She made this podcast coming off 1114 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:53,200 Speaker 1: of like the COVID era, and she read a book 1115 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:57,320 Speaker 1: and everything, and basically it centered around anybody who's really 1116 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 1: struggling with any kind of complex emotions or situation. It 1117 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:06,960 Speaker 1: touches on body image, you know, identity, LGBTQ community, you know, 1118 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:10,000 Speaker 1: all the intersections and most people of color everything, and 1119 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: they she brings on a lot of really amazing individuals 1120 00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 1: like authors, and that's also something that I've used to 1121 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,600 Speaker 1: continue to understand myself in my situations and make sense 1122 00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 1: of it. And it's just a really good resource to 1123 00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:26,440 Speaker 1: be able to, i don't know, like make sense of 1124 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 1: things that are hard that we don't really want to 1125 00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,920 Speaker 1: make sense of, and like use that it's a tool 1126 00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 1: so that we can be able to better ourselves. And 1127 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 1: it really hones on, I think, pretty much all of 1128 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,440 Speaker 1: the hard things that we don't really necessarily want to acknowledge. 1129 00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 1: And sometimes for me personally, it was developing like self 1130 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,040 Speaker 1: love for like the parts of me that I don't 1131 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:49,400 Speaker 1: really like. And most recent one I listened to was 1132 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:51,800 Speaker 1: talking about like radical self love and how to get back. 1133 00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 1: A lot of people now are starting with a body 1134 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:58,240 Speaker 1: dysmarkia and identity and stuff like that. But it's overall 1135 00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 1: a great podcast and it really can be something to 1136 01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 1: use to make to make yourself feel better and have 1137 01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 1: that like self love again and you know all the 1138 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,240 Speaker 1: positive things that come with it. But it's a tool 1139 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:12,840 Speaker 1: that I use that would love for everyone else to 1140 01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 1: be more aware of. And they're also on Apple and Spotifying. 1141 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:20,160 Speaker 1: Pretty sure it's called we Can Do Hard Things. Yeah, 1142 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 1: it really is like talking about hard things like no 1143 01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:25,440 Speaker 1: one wants to talk about. And I think not only 1144 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 1: is the conversation being had, but being able to be 1145 01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 1: to learn about the people that they bring on. They 1146 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 1: also can teach you things too, just from their own work. 1147 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: A lot of them are like good authors, and I've 1148 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,880 Speaker 1: read a lot of books through it to kind of 1149 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 1: just like do that work. Because you have to do 1150 01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,800 Speaker 1: work for yourself and there's no one else that's going 1151 01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: to hold your hand. You have to put in a 1152 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,560 Speaker 1: lot of energy towards it because it is hard to 1153 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 1: make that conscious effort. But normalizing things that we don't 1154 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 1: really want to acknowledge, I think is great and that's 1155 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,640 Speaker 1: something I think is the cool tool to have. Well, 1156 01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:00,600 Speaker 1: thank you, I appreciate that, cat. And then before we 1157 01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:03,280 Speaker 1: have you go, we would love if you could share 1158 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 1: your rose and your thorn. So basically, the rose is 1159 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 1: like highlights so far on your time on The Bachelor, 1160 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 1: whether that was back during filming or now these first 1161 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 1: couple of weeks watching it back. And then vice versa 1162 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,920 Speaker 1: said the thorn, which is like a messy moment, something awkward, 1163 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 1: something that you're like, oh, I wish that maybe didn't happen. 1164 01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:26,320 Speaker 1: So basically, highlight and low light so far. Okay, so 1165 01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 1: up to this point, I would say a rose would 1166 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:32,160 Speaker 1: be us moving into the mansion, like when we first 1167 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:36,000 Speaker 1: run in, and it really is as exciting as it seems. 1168 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 1: I'm from Florida, so seeing the mountains like be the 1169 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 1: horizon felt like outer space. It was crazy, but you 1170 01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:46,400 Speaker 1: just like feel this feeling of excitement and enlightment that 1171 01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 1: you really can't express or like. It's just an overall 1172 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:54,840 Speaker 1: overwhelming just gratitude too to be in the Bachelor mansion. 1173 01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 1: And I would say that was like one of my 1174 01:01:56,240 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 1: most exciting things. That's farm and then a thorn. Probably 1175 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:06,720 Speaker 1: my toes going up during the first real ceremonies fully 1176 01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 1: went nam. I mean I was just not expecting. Now 1177 01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm obviously putting back on, but you're on that costool 1178 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:17,080 Speaker 1: and my toes lost full feeling, full feeling, and I'm like, 1179 01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 1: oh God, like, why did I not think this through better? 1180 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:22,960 Speaker 1: I should afford better shoes. Yes, and it's cold at night, 1181 01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:25,440 Speaker 1: it gets very cold there, so oh, I couldn't even 1182 01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 1: feel anything aside. I mean I was my toes were 1183 01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:33,440 Speaker 1: falling off their hinges. Well, if that's your thorn, I 1184 01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:36,480 Speaker 1: feel like that's like a pretty good one to have, Like, yeah, 1185 01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 1: hopefully you get gained feeling that's real quick.
