1 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, Welcome to another exciting and riveting episode of 2 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: Just Be. There is a very pressing important issue that 3 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: I need to communicate to you about, and it's about 4 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: paper straws. Paper straws, paper straws. Sometimes you'll be at 5 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: a coffee place or a Starbucks and like you'll just 6 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,279 Speaker 1: open that straw and it's a plastic straw, and it's 7 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: like you've sort of gotten the the golden ticket. You 8 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: are in Charlie and the chocolate factory and you're like, 9 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,319 Speaker 1: holy shit, I hope no one sees I fucking got 10 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 1: the plastic straw. Like maybe one. It's like when you 11 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: get one random sprinkle and like a plane vanilla ice cream. 12 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: Just something happened. There was a plastic straw just like 13 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: thought like that, like I don't know, made it onto 14 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: a conveyor belt into the store and I've just got 15 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: one of the last surviving plastic straws. The thing is, 16 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 1: we do have to pick our spots, and I do 17 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: when I get when I take food in and I 18 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: have those plastic containers, I always reuse them. That's where 19 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: my daughter's crayons live. That's where I have little gadgets 20 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: or buttons. I organize everything in there. Maybe those little 21 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: clips that are at your desk, if you just they're 22 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: just messing up. So I'm a big person of trying 23 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:29,919 Speaker 1: to recycle what I can. So I was thinking, though, Um, 24 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: so I use my plastic credit card to pay for 25 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: the drink at Starbucks, and I haven't gotten it yet, 26 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: but I'm sure that I will get plastic surgery at 27 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: some point. There are plastic containers in my kitchen cabinet, 28 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: there are plastic materials in my car that I drive 29 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: to go to Starbucks. I bought some Halloween decorations and 30 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: there's plastic on them. Some commercials say plastic makes it 31 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: possible based on the fact that I've just explained to 32 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: you just a small portion of my day. I mean, 33 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: I'm looking at keys on my daughter's computer. I actually 34 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: think that might be made of plastic. So I just 35 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: want to fucking know. Oh, I have a water bottle 36 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: here that's gonna make me be green because I'm not 37 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: gonna use plastic water bottles. But the truth the matter 38 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: is the top of it that holds in the bottom, 39 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: that insulated bottle. It's plastic. It came with a metal straw, 40 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: which I have plied, and I do buy my own straws, 41 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: and I will, if I think of it, put my 42 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: own straws into my daughter's lunch box and bring it 43 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: with me into my purse. I'm in my daughter's room. 44 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: There's like a light up, amazing modern bunny and it 45 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,839 Speaker 1: it looks like it's made of plastic. So we are 46 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 1: drawing the line at straws. It's Starbucks. And the truth 47 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: of the matter is I think I would use a 48 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: paper credit card if I could, and I would, you know, 49 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: use paper to wrap my makeup brushes. But I really 50 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,399 Speaker 1: just I don't like the straw. I don't like into 51 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: my mouth. I don't like it feels soggy. It's like 52 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: this fucking limp dick that's just like started off hard 53 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: when I started drinking the drink and two SIPs in 54 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: and I can't even The thing is, I can't even 55 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: drink the rest of the drink. Like it's not like 56 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to be green or anything. I can't 57 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 1: finish the drink that I've purchased in a plastic cup, 58 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: by the way, that has a paper straw in it. 59 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: I can't finish the fucking drink because of the paper straw. 60 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: It's now folded over, and I often take the time 61 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: to like rip off the top and then get some 62 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: like fresh blood, so like underneath that that part hasn't 63 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: been so wilted. But I just want to know, like, 64 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: if we're gonna do this thing, we gotta go all 65 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: the way because I just don't feel like we're making 66 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: a big enough difference if we're just gonna just just 67 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: draw the line at the plastic straw. I want to 68 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: know the difference that the paper straws have made. I 69 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: want to know, like, I just want to know the 70 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: impact of the paper straw switch. How big that has been, 71 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: has it sort of is it going to be like 72 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: in the time, you know, top one greatest moments of 73 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: the paper straw switch. I just want to understand. So 74 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: I'm asking you guys to point me in the direction 75 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: of some data or statistics because I haven't seen any yet. 76 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: Let me know on my Instagram or at just be 77 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: with Bethany and what else can we do from plastic 78 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: to paper. Today is my conversation with Hillary Clinton. The 79 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: magnitude is not lost on me. She has accomplished so 80 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 1: much since the very beginning of our life. She has 81 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: really just never ever stopped fighting and persevering and moving forward. 82 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: So this is a pretty exciting conversation for me very 83 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: early on in this podcast. I think it really provides 84 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: the essence of what this show is about, which is 85 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 1: to humanize someone that you may not know that well 86 00:04:52,520 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: at all. Hi. Hell oh, bethany how are you um? 87 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: So excited and just humbled and taking it in? And 88 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 1: thank you so much. I honestly, your your time is 89 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: so valuable and I wanted to tell you what the 90 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: podcast is and you agreed blindly without asking for a question. Yes, 91 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: But are you having fun? Are you having fun doing this? I? Yes, 92 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: I could not love it more. I find it liberating. 93 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: What do you How do you feel about it doing it? 94 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: I feel great? You know. I never would have thought 95 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: that I would be here in my attic of my house, 96 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: and you know, with my new podcast, you and me 97 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: both talking to fabulous people about everything under the sun, 98 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: and I am Maybe it's because we're all at home 99 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: and and you know, we're kind of looking for substitutes 100 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: for what we can't do, like go out and see 101 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: people and have meals together and all of that. But 102 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: I love it. I know it's so freeing. And I 103 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: I see that you're in casual clothes too. I usually 104 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: I'm at home and I wear pajamas and then I 105 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,559 Speaker 1: shower prior because I feel like it's respectful to the guests. 106 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: The shower and put a little perfume on. But just 107 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: so your listeners know, you've got a Snoopy T shirt on, 108 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: which is adorable. Well, my my team was wondering if 109 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 1: anyone's ever interviewed you in a Snoopy T shirt, and 110 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: they all suspected probably not. I think this is the 111 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: first and and and Snoopy looks like he's going to, 112 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: you know, be an astronaut or something. As I can, 113 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm trying to make it out here. Yes, Well, my 114 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: teammate is Corey, and he's gay, and he says this 115 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: looks like a gay Snoopy that, so I think he 116 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: might be a gay Snoopy. And here he is, so 117 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: it looks like there's like a gay flag behind Snoopy 118 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: exactly like that. So this is just me with Bethany 119 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: and the filter here is game Changers, Mavericks. Fearlessness started 120 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: from the bottom. Now we're here and I want to 121 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: know how you agree need to do this. We are 122 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: two weeks into doing this and we get an email 123 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: that we all stopped and we started screaming. Am I 124 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: sitting down? I said why? And your email was read 125 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: and and and what made you decide to do this? Well, 126 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,679 Speaker 1: now that I'm doing my own podcast, I've been listening 127 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: to podcasts and I find them fascinating because they run 128 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: the gamut. And I listened to a couple of your 129 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: podcasts and I just really loved your freewheeling, kind of 130 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: open ended conversations with people that were, like Mark Cuban, 131 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: for example, you know, we're you know, we're really intriguing. 132 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: And so I thought, wow, I'd love to talk with 133 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: Bethany because I'd love to have the experience of being 134 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: interviewed by her as I am kind of putting together 135 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: my own podcasting expertise, so to speak. Fabulous. All right, well, 136 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: that's thrilling, and you know that I think you're you'll, 137 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: I mean, we've done well, but I think that that 138 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: you're doing this will put me on the map. And 139 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: so do you realize the currency you have just being you, 140 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: the actual power and currency just your influence to just 141 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: decide to do something and it could change somebody else's 142 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: entire life. You know, I don't think about it like that. 143 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: I do feel a sense of obligation in a way, 144 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: because there are a lot of people who follow me 145 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: or you know, look up to me, or in this case, 146 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: listen to my podcast. I want to be a positive force, 147 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I want to be somebody 148 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: who can help people, and especially now we're going through 149 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: this common trauma of this terrible pandemic and then the 150 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: you know, racial reckoning and economic catastrophe that so many 151 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: people are suffering. There's a lot of pain out there, 152 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: and so I'm trying in my own way to you know, 153 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: lift people up and give them some idea of you know, 154 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: what they could do that would make their lives better 155 00:08:54,600 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: despite all the challenges. Do you feel that that are 156 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: becoming even more and more authentic as you dig deeper 157 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: into who you are and seeing it play out in 158 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: front of everyone. For example, you know, I watched the 159 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: documentary and it gave me such a greater sense of 160 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: who you actually are. But who people think we are 161 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 1: and who we actually are, you know, is sometimes so 162 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: vastly different. And so I thought to myself, if aliens 163 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 1: landed on Earth and the first person they met was you, 164 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 1: and they said, who are you and what do you do? 165 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: What would you say? Well, I would say that, you know, 166 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: I'm somebody who has um always felt like I had 167 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: a mission or a purpose to make the most out 168 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: of my own life and also to give back. I've 169 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: been really lucky in lots of ways with the you know, 170 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: family I was born into and the opportunities that I've 171 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: been given, and I've worked really hard, and so I 172 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: feel like I'm kind of on this earth to try 173 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: to make things better for people who don't have those 174 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: advantages that I've been given. And you know, the word authentic, 175 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: which gets thrown around a lot. I mean, I feel 176 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 1: like I've been exactly the same person in my entire life, 177 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: but I'm really well aware of how, you know, public 178 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: perceptions and then being in public life and being in 179 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: political life, how sometimes that is not an opening but 180 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: a barrier to people really seeing you, are getting to 181 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: know you. And so I accept that, you know, it's 182 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: there's so many things I want to say about that, 183 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: because in thinking about your life and career and having 184 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: to be sort of like that video game Frog or 185 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: bobbing and weaving in and out of traffic. In many ways, 186 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: it's don't hate the player paid the game because you 187 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: wanted to get into the White House to be able 188 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,719 Speaker 1: to affect more change, and you were so ahead of 189 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: everybody else, protesting and thinking about things that most women 190 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: weren't even thinking about then. But you have to somehow 191 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: navigate that because you have to find a way. You 192 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: can't just jump in like I'm here, do it my way. Well, 193 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: that's exactly right. I mean, part of the the challenge is, 194 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: especially when you're a woman, is understanding enough about who 195 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: you are and what you're trying to achieve, but also 196 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: recognizing that, you know, there's still this gigantic double standard. 197 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: It's just out there, and you know, we we are 198 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: still judged on a different set of criteria than men 199 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 1: in public life, or men in business, or men in academia, 200 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: you just name it, men anywhere. There is still a 201 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: different set of expectations. And so I've been first in 202 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 1: a lot of areas, so I've had to kind of 203 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: go into the you know, go into the traffic and 204 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: try to figure out how I was going to maneuver 205 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: it and get through it. And you know, people are 206 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: sitting there saying, well, I don't think she's doing that right, 207 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: or you know, I don't like her hair, I don't know, 208 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: I don't like this or that because it's new and 209 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: it's unusual and everybody has to kind of figure out 210 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: what it means. So yeah, I I know that there's 211 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: a you know, there's a still a big burden on 212 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: a lot of women in the public arena that we 213 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: have to just keep pushing forward with well we have 214 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: in common that we're polarizing people. And in watching your documentary, 215 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: it seems like you don't live in the love and 216 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: you don't live in the hate like you don't you know, 217 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: you don't bask in the love, but you don't do 218 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 1: you don't self deprecate in the hate exactly. I think 219 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: that's a great way to put it. I mean, because 220 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 1: you know, just like you, you have people who uh 221 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: just adore you and follow you and you know, model 222 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: themselves after you. And then you've got people who gripe 223 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 1: and and complain and and critique you. And you know, 224 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 1: just like most things, you can't get pushed to the extremes. 225 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: You can't believe, you know, all the adulation and the 226 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: best about yourself and you certainly should not buy into 227 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: all the negativity and the hate and all the rest 228 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: that goes with the critics. So you have to chart 229 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: your own course, and you know, at the end of 230 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: the day, that's all you can do. You can just 231 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: be who you are, for better, for worse, and you know, 232 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: good times and bad. You just be who you are, 233 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: and the people who get you will get you, and 234 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: they'll know that you, like them, are an imperfect human being. 235 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: You know, you you you don't walk on water. You 236 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: do the best you can to get through the day 237 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 1: to you know, be fair and good to people around 238 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: you and all the rest. But at the at the 239 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: end of it, you gotta be you know, you've gotta 240 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: be happy and satisfied with yourself. Yes, And right now 241 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 1: I feel that it's more confining and more constricting than 242 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: ever because you can't you don't know what you can 243 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: and can't say, and you're not allowed to make a mistake. 244 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: And part of the reason I wanted to do this 245 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: podcast right now this way is because I have to 246 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: be able to say what my opinion is and if 247 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: there's a forum and people disagree with it, okay, let's 248 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: have a conversation, but people aren't having conversations. Yeah, I 249 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: think that that is uh, you know, really an unfortunate 250 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: development is that you know, there, Look, there are some 251 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: people who they're not interested in conversation. They're just interested 252 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: in dominating what you're supposed to believe and what you're 253 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: supposed to say from you know, all kinds of directions. 254 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: It's not just coming from one side, it's coming from degrees. 255 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: And so there are people who are trying to just 256 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: I think, stifle conversation if you don't agree with them, 257 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: and I think that's terrible. I think it's divisive. I 258 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: think it doesn't lead to good decision making. I mean, 259 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, look, there are some people who believe 260 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: things that I find abhorrent. I'm not interested in having 261 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: a conversation with them. I don't think you are either. 262 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: But there's a whole lot of other people who, you know, 263 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: they have differences of opinion based on their own experiences, 264 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: and you should be able to have a conversation. But 265 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: we're going through a period of time where everybody is 266 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: really on edge, and I think a lot of it 267 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: has to do, you know, with the pandemic, with the 268 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: terrible killings of George Floyd and others. There's a lot 269 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: of tension and you know, anxiety and anguish in the world. 270 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: The economic crisis has devastated people. There's just there's so 271 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: much tension that people are are afraid to have a 272 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: conversation because they're not sure they can take much more. 273 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: Does that make sense? And it's it's I'm mad as hell, 274 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to take this anymore. People are 275 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: also stuck in their homes, so it's an idle mind 276 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: as a devil's playground, and people are just angry and 277 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: they want to have this conversation. Not a conversation though 278 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: it's I'm right, you're wrong, now what Okay? So it's 279 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: a zero sum game and I find that to be 280 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: a problem. And sometimes I watch social media and I'm thinking, 281 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: it's okay if you disagree with me, I disagree with you, 282 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: but let's yeah, so that we we agree on that. 283 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: I really I like it that I like you. You 284 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: you pointed out, you know, the problem with a zero 285 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: sum game, and I agree with you completely. Right now, 286 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: there's too much of a zero sum game going on, 287 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: and it's like, you know, I can only win if 288 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: you lose. No, wait a minute, you know what, I 289 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: think there's a way that Yeah, maybe we wouldn't get 290 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: everything we want, but we'd sure make some you know, 291 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: good changes together if we would actually listen to each other. 292 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: That is now considered you know, unacceptable. It's my way 293 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: or no way, and I just we You can't run 294 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: a society, especially a democracy, if you're not listening to 295 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: people and trying to find common ground. You may reject 296 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: it after the effort and say no, you know that's 297 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: not gonna work. I don't I don't believe that, or 298 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: I can't go along with that. But the effort is 299 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: really important. You want to understand why someone feels that way, 300 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: even if you don't agree with that that. You want to 301 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: understand where that thought process controvers saying you're a jerk, 302 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: I disagree with you by yeah, okay, yeah yeah, and 303 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: walk away. I'm not talking to you anymore. Exactly. That's 304 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: exactly you said before that you felt that you had 305 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: a mission, and did you feel inside of you like, well, 306 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: I thought this something. I have this special thing and 307 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what it is, but I'm going to 308 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: take this thing all the way. Did you feel that, 309 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: you know, I did, Bethany, and I think I thought 310 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 1: a lot about you know, why I chose some of 311 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: the paths I took. And I really go back to 312 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: my mother, you know, who was a major influence in 313 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: my life. And she had a really, really bad childhood. 314 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: She was basically neglected and abandoned and pretty much out 315 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: on her own. And by the time she was thirteen, 316 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: she was working in somebody else's home. She was being 317 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 1: a babysitter and a housekeeper. And as I learned about that, 318 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: I didn't know it when I was a little kid, 319 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: but as I became a teenager, I just felt really 320 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: drawn to trying to figure out how I could help kids. 321 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: That was my main driver, particularly neglected and abused kids, 322 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: poor kids, sick kids. And I really believe it was 323 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: in large measure because I would imagine, you know, my 324 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: mother's life now. She she had some moments and I 325 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: asked her this once. I said, how did you get 326 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: through that? Because it was so grim, and she said, 327 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: along the way, somebody would be kind to me. So, 328 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: for example, when she was in first grade, she never 329 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: had any she never brought any food to school. She 330 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: had to wear the same clothes every day, etcetera. And 331 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: her first grade teacher noticed because they used in those days, 332 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: I was a long time ago, in like the nineteen twenties, 333 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: you know, they would eat at their desk in their classroom, 334 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: and she noticed that my mother never brought any food, 335 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 1: and so a few days went behind, the teacher came 336 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: and said to my mother, you know, Dorothy, um, I 337 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: just brought too much food today. I can't I can't 338 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 1: eat at all. Would you like it? And it was 339 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: never embarrassing or humiliating. It was totally out of kindness. 340 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: Or you know, fast forward to when my mother was 341 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: working in somebody else's home and she she couldn't go 342 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: to high school because she had to work and she 343 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: couldn't her grandparents had thrown her out. And uh so 344 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 1: the mother the house said, you know, Dorothy, if you 345 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: would like to go to high school, if you get 346 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: up early and you finish your work, you should go 347 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: to high school. And you know, I think about a 348 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 1: thirteen year old being put in that position and breaks 349 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 1: my heart. But for my mother it was kindness. So 350 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: my mother would get up early and she would run 351 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: to school and she would run back and she would 352 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: do her other chores and you know, you think about 353 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: just the small things. You're talking about people who are 354 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: at home, just the small things that make a huge 355 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: difference in somebody's lives. So, like, fifty years later, my 356 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 1: mother is telling me about her first grade teacher and 357 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: the woman whose house she worked in, because those two 358 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: people showed kindness to her. So I think, you know, 359 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: that was really what motivated me to go to work 360 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,719 Speaker 1: for the Children's Defense Fund and work on you know, 361 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: kids issues. In the early part of my career. I 362 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,959 Speaker 1: think about your journey and the sort of bobbing and 363 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: weaving of you and can I Bill? I mean, what 364 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 1: did I call him? Bill? Okay? Well it sounds like 365 00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: such like a regular name now and I say it 366 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: out loud, my joll Phil Okay. So you and Bill 367 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: are sort of, you know, switching positions in you know, 368 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: you you were the supporting character and then he was 369 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: a supporting character in the film. And I wonder, do 370 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: you think you would have gone as far as you 371 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: have without him? And do you think that he would 372 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: have gone all the way without you? Or do you 373 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: think it was a sum is greater than its parts thing? 374 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: I think it was the sum is greater than the parts. 375 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, when when I met him, Um, 376 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: I had no idea back in law school, you know 377 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: that he would end up being president. But he was charismatic, 378 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: and he was really smart, and he was funny, and 379 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 1: you know, we just really hit it off. And so 380 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: are you know, our time together we were married forty 381 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 1: five years as of uh, you know, October the eleventh. 382 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 1: Our time together has been really mutually supportive, and you're right. 383 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: At some points, you know, I did more to support him. 384 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: At other points, he did more to support me, but 385 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: not just in the public way, you know, in the 386 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: in you know, the really personal way. When you know 387 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: a parent dies or there's some other tragedy in your life, 388 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: you know, to have somebody by your side who kind 389 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: of knows the whole history and can be there supporting 390 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: you and vice versa. Yeah, I mean that's amazing. And 391 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: then we had you know, I know you have a daughter. 392 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: We we had a daughter, and it's been a great gift. 393 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: Parenting with him and now grand parenting with him is 394 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: just the best. So you know, you look back on 395 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,120 Speaker 1: a long life, they're ups, there's downs, but it's it's 396 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 1: all part of the life that I chose and I 397 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: made and I'm really grateful for it. So that's what 398 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: I kind of want to talk about. Because we come 399 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: from your mom had a challenging background. I had a 400 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: sort of non traditional challenging background, and I've never first 401 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: hand seen a successful relationship. So sometimes I think about 402 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: if that if I had that found a should if 403 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: if my relationships would be different. I mean, business comes 404 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,479 Speaker 1: very easy to me. Relationships are just the one thing 405 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: I would love to be able to accomplish. But um, 406 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: I think about your age, so you're from a different generation. 407 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: You you have such a sort of modern approach to 408 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: so many things, but a traditional provincial attitude towards marriage 409 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: that is admirable. And my viewpoint, which is I'm not 410 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: in your marriage, is that you can't you can't crystallize 411 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: forty five years of marriage in events that are publicized 412 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: that sound pretty crappy. Don't get it twisted, But how 413 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: has that process worked your whole married life and from 414 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: being a child until now where you're staying in it 415 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: and you know you're staying in it and you've made 416 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: that commitment and that's just the way it's going to be. 417 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 1: You know, Look, I'm I've had a somewhat public marriage 418 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: as you as you alluded, and obviously everybody knows that, 419 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: but that's just the tip of the iceberg. I mean, 420 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: there's just so much more in a relationship and certainly 421 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: in our marriage that I have benefited from I'm grateful for. 422 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: And then I had to make a really hard decision, 423 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: like many many millions of women in our country, around 424 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: the world throughout history. And it was not easy, and 425 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: you know, lots of kibbutzers on all sides, you know, 426 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: telling me what I should or shouldn't do. I had 427 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: to dig down deep and and really feel like, wait 428 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: a minute, what is right for me? For my family, uh, 429 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: for the kind of life that I want to keep 430 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 1: living and the person I want to keep becoming. Um. So, 431 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: you know, I I made the decision to you know, 432 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: stay in the marriage and to focus on it and 433 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: to be you know, really um as as committed as 434 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: I could be, because on balance, it was what made 435 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: made me feel was right. And I don't pretend that 436 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 1: my decision is the right decision for everybody, but I 437 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 1: think if you go through a really intensional uh self examination, 438 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: so it's not knee jerk, it's not yes, no, or 439 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: I give in or I give up or whatever. If 440 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: you really think it through, you come to the decision 441 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: that's right for you. It might not be right for 442 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 1: your sister, or your best friend or your neighbor down 443 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: the block, but you make that decision and then you 444 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 1: go forward with it. And that's you know, that's how 445 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: I see it. Well, And watching your husband talk about 446 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: you and get teary eyed, you could see how much 447 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 1: he truly, truly loves you, like to the core. You 448 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: can just actually see the in the body language and 449 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 1: in his space. And so when I meet people who 450 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: have been married for such a long time, I find 451 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: it to be such an incredible accomplishment. It's much easier 452 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: in business, in in in friendships, in marriage, and you 453 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: know to to to walk. And I think that you've 454 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: been criticized for staying, but I don't think you've been 455 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: honored quite enough for for stitude. I mean that that's 456 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: very hard to do that, much less publicly for anyone 457 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: just to feel yeah, used to go through that and 458 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 1: to feel embarrassed and to just have to you know, 459 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: And I'm glad that you did. Having seen the documentary, 460 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: I just feel like it's something to aspire to. People 461 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: have so many things that happened in forty five years. 462 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: I mean, that's my almost my entire lifetime. It's gonna 463 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: gonna say and I'm not Spring Chicken. Yeah, it's gonna happen. 464 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: So so that that I that I applaud. And how 465 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: do you nurture a relationship with all that work? I 466 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: have problems in my relationships with you know, I've got 467 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: to do this and you've got to go there, and 468 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: this is important, and that's important. And I haven't had 469 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: a career like you, and much less where your partner 470 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: has a career like you. So how the hell? That's 471 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: what the nitty gritty of it? The day to day. 472 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you've had some big firework moments that we've 473 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: all watched. But I'm talking about not Valentine's Day and uh, 474 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: Infidelity Day. I'm talking about the five other days or 475 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: the year that you know are in holidays. So how 476 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 1: does that? How do you do that? What's the takeaway? 477 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: You know, I think that's such the right question, and 478 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: it's particularly important in these days because you know, before 479 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 1: the pandemic, everybody was going off in a million different 480 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 1: directions and there's so many demands on everybody's life, but 481 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 1: somebody you know, as busy as as you. You know, 482 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: it gets compounded. So you've got to find things that 483 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: you really make time for. And you know, before the pandemic, 484 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: when we were living a much more you know, normal life, 485 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: we you know, made time to go out to dinner, 486 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: We made time to go to the movies, We made 487 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: time to go to the theater. We made time to 488 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 1: visit friends, and of course spending time with you know, 489 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 1: our daughter and our grandkids. Now during this pandemic, it's 490 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: it's fascinating, Bethany, because we make time to go for 491 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: long walks. I mean, I'm a huge believer in getting 492 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: out into nature and and breathing. I mean it's like 493 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: my mental health exercise of the day. Uh. We make 494 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: time to spend time with our our kids and our family. 495 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: We make time to you know, play games, card games, 496 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: do puzzles, word games. I mean it sounds kind of hokey, 497 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: but you gotta create almost I think of a weaving 498 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: together of you know, all of your individual interests. You know, 499 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: he watches sports as much as any human being. I know, 500 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: he watches anything. And he was depressed when in the 501 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 1: beginning of the pandemic, there were no sports. He was 502 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: watching you know, cornhole contests and pickle ball content anything, 503 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,679 Speaker 1: right that God that you know, sports came back so 504 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,479 Speaker 1: we can watch football and baseball and basketball. So he 505 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: watches a lot of sports, which is his which is 506 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: his deal. Um, you know, I talked to my friends, 507 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: I read a lot, we watched you know, common TV 508 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: programs that we find, uh, you know, entertaining and the like. 509 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 1: But you have to make a real point of it 510 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 1: because it is so easy to sort of just kind 511 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: of drift away. Because working on relationships, you know, it's hard. 512 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: It takes you know, a lot of patience and practice. 513 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: And I have no other advice than that, other than 514 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: you know, it's like anything else, if you value it, 515 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: you do it, and you practice at it and you 516 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: try to get better at it. So you're saying, it's 517 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: a quality, not quantity. It's a quality not quantity. And 518 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: it's making moments that are very present, making memories and 519 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: as a moment that yeah, that thats scheduling them, you know, 520 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: making you know, making them a priority. And of course 521 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: in the pandemic, it is quality and quantity because I 522 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: mean we're we're together seven now, we're not going anywhere 523 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: we have you know, not not many places that we 524 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: can get out of our house. So we've spent a 525 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: lot of time together. And you're are you with your 526 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: daughter too, so you're all together, you're having more quality 527 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: well together. So you never thought at this time it's 528 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: the best. I mean no, I never thought I'd get 529 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: to spend this kind of time with my grandchildren. I 530 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: have a six year old granddaughter. I have a four 531 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: and a one year old grandson, so three little kids, 532 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: and I'm ever would have thought. I mean, it's the 533 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: only silver lining in this otherwise really stressful, difficult time 534 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: for all of us. But it's a big silver lining 535 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: because you know, all summer, I mean literally they would 536 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: come and wake us up and jump on our bed 537 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: and you know, come on, grandma, come on, pop, pop, 538 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: come outside, we want to play or you know, it 539 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: was just the best. I mean, those memories are priceless, 540 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: embedded forever. What a great silver lining. And I do 541 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: think though that the way that I see it is 542 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: that people are still right now, and some people are 543 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: you know, obviously people are impoverished and have no job 544 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: and are unwell and that's a that's a major bucket. 545 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: But I think there are many people that have never 546 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: jumped out of fear business wise, and now the snow 547 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: globe is totally shaken up, and I don't think there's 548 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: going to be a big flourishing of small businesses as 549 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: a result of this because people have to fly. Oh 550 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: I hope. So I hope you know one thing well, 551 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: because you are a businesswoman and you've been really innovative 552 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: and entrepreneurial. You know, maybe through your podcast you could 553 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: you know, not only have business people on, but you know, 554 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: have people who can you help your listeners think about 555 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: what they could do exactly. I mean, because I agree 556 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: with you this should be a time of fermat and 557 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: innovation if we're smart about it. It's a time to 558 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: plant seeds and they will grow. There will be a 559 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: gold rush exactly. So that's what I do think, because 560 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: I tell people, don't get manic, and it's so hard 561 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: to not have anxiety. Try to focus on your self 562 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: care and sleeping because now is the time to be 563 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: planning everybody still, So as when you're planting your seeds, 564 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: you're planning and charting your course. That's how I feel 565 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: about it, I do. I like that. I like that, 566 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: that's good. In what ways has being a women had advantages? 567 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: Because we talk a lot about what women don't get 568 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 1: and and you know, not equal pay aside aside from 569 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: Judge Judy because she once said, thank God, I didn't 570 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: ask for equal pay, which I love. That was smart, right, So, 571 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: in what way has being a woman had its advantages? 572 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 1: Like where you know, things have happened for you that 573 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't have happened if you were a man. Well, you know, 574 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: I think of the advantages more in sort of like 575 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: a holistic way. Um, I really do believe that being empathetic, 576 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: being able to put yourself in somebody else's position, comes 577 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,959 Speaker 1: more naturally to women. I mean, I think that certainly 578 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: from my experience. I have a much broader aperture my 579 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: you know, my brain is sort of open wider to 580 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: sort of pick up how people are feeling and hurting 581 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: and maybe what we can you know, try to do 582 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: to help uh And I and I like that. I mean, 583 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 1: you know, when you think about what's happened around the 584 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: world with the pandemic, it's pretty clear now that the 585 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: countries with the best outcomes were run by women. Think 586 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: about that in New Zealand, Taiwan, Germany, uh, you know, Finland, Denmark. 587 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: And why was that? I mean in part because I 588 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: think many of them were moms like you know, like 589 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: you and me, many of them, Um, you know, we're 590 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: more open to feeling the fear and anxiety that people had, 591 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 1: and being more inclusive and listening. The combination of of 592 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: reasons really lead to measurable results. UM. So I think 593 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: that's why I've always been a good office holder. You know, 594 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: That's why I've always done a really good job when 595 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: I was in an office. It's a little harder sometimes 596 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: running for office and asking people to vote for you. 597 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 1: And you know, that's when sometimes the you know, the 598 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: problems are the double standard about being a woman woman 599 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: come into play. But once you're in office, I really 600 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: feel like as a public official, I kind of got 601 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: a broader understanding. Like for example, you know, I was 602 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: senator on nine eleven, Um, I was. I was there 603 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: at ground zero the day after, uh with you know, 604 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 1: the governor, the mayor, my fellow senator, UM. And I 605 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: immediately was choking on the air and I immediately started 606 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: thinking people are going to get sick from this. I 607 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: picked it up immediately because I was thinking, you know, what, 608 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: what if you know, I were living down here, or 609 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: what if I had been working down here? So I 610 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 1: started working on trying to, you know, understand what had 611 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: happened to people's health. I don't know, It's just because 612 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: as women, we you know, we we carry a lot 613 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: of the responsibilities that families are having to fulfill. And 614 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: I felt like I was helping my huge family after 615 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: such a terrible, you know, tragic disaster, makes perfect sense. 616 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 1: I do you have to go soon? So I'm just 617 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: gonna get in like two more questions because I want 618 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: to let you go. One is, do you feel that 619 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: you went gangster enough with Trump? Like, do you feel 620 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: that you were being elegant and classy and you didn't 621 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: go like you didn't go in go and gangster, and 622 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: that you maybe should have gone an our game? You know, 623 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: you know, I've thought about that a lot. I mean really, 624 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: I wrote a book after the election called What Happened, 625 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: And I wrote a chapter about women in politics, and 626 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: I wrote about, you know, how how do you deal 627 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: with somebody who, uh is you know that aggressive, you 628 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: know that domineering and all the rest of it. You know, 629 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 1: in retrospect, I think I would have. I could have 630 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 1: tried a few different things. I think. Still, you've got 631 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: to be careful as a woman on the you know, 632 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 1: the big stage. You can't be too you know, they 633 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: get to be aggressive. But if we're aggressive, we pay 634 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 1: a price for it, as you know so well. So 635 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: I think I could have tried a few other um tactics. 636 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm not sure they would have worked, but you know, 637 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: might have been worth trying. What do you think of 638 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: my idea that there should be a penalty box at debates, 639 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: so if you don't follow the rules, you get a 640 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: time out for a minute and the other person just 641 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: gets to talk in the camera and the microphone are 642 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: not on you. I love that. We've got to do 643 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 1: something right to make these debates. Yeah, these debates work 644 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: again because we saw with Trump, I mean, you know, 645 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:08,800 Speaker 1: just interrupting talking over as time. Yeah, something has to happen. 646 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: We should put you in charge of that about it? Yeah, 647 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: you're any time out now? Now you face the corner. 648 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:22,919 Speaker 1: So what is your signature cocktail? Oh well, I've gone 649 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: through several during the course of my life. I'm kind 650 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: of on Margarita's right now, okay, I'll have to send 651 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: you some margharita's. Okay, that's because we've been eating so 652 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 1: much take out Mexican food. I probably need to stop that, 653 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 1: but it's been delicious. So let me ask you just 654 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: one last question, which is your mantra? Mine? Is? You know, 655 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: keep going and be grateful. I mean, that's kind of 656 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: how I mean, when you're knocked down, which everybody is, 657 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: you gotta find a way to get back up. Maybe 658 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 1: you just get to your knees first and then you 659 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: grab on something, you pull yourself up, keep going and 660 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: then be grateful, you know, every day. I really believe 661 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: that gratitude is a discipline and if you practice it, 662 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 1: it has really good effects on you. Um, so that's 663 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 1: what I try to do. Well, you have walked the walk, 664 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 1: you have talked to talk, you have been on the journey, 665 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: and I have to say that you make me proud 666 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: to be a woman, and I'm proud of you and 667 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 1: everything you've done. It's unbelievable. Thanks, it's great talking to you. 668 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: The very best to you. Thank you so much. Hillary. Wow, Uh, 669 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,720 Speaker 1: you know, people are just people. I mean Hillary Clinton 670 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,760 Speaker 1: is a person. She's a human being and I think 671 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: I got a sense of her. The truth is, that's 672 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 1: what this podcast is designed to do. You don't understand 673 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: who this person is, you'd understand how they think about 674 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: relationships and their career and their struggle. And that's what 675 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: it is. And I wasn't here to just you know, 676 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: talk to her about the same ship that everyone else 677 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 1: talked to her about. It just wanted to feel a 678 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: normal conversation that you were just sitting in on. And 679 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 1: I hope that I did it justice because there was 680 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: so much to talk about. And I'm glad she wore 681 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: just like a flannel sweatshirt or fleece because I was 682 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: wearing a snoopy shirt and that would have felt stupid 683 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: if I was all decked out and she was in 684 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: a suit. So I'm really thrilled and thank you all 685 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: for listening. This is quite exciting.
