So I'm just 27 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: ignoring every person that says that to me and pretending 28 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,199 Speaker 1: that I don't understand what they're saying. 29 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 3: This is where no oblo Espanol comes in real habit no. 30 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 2: La Espanol right now. 31 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: But he is wiped out every day. He is a 32 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: First of all, he goes in the water and he 33 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: drinks the salt water. So he hasn't gotten sick yet, 34 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: so I guess. But I think it puts him to 35 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: sleep or he's still jelacked. I can't tell. But he 36 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: loves it. We have a we had a vest for him, 37 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: but he doesn't really go far enough in for the vest. 38 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: So yeah, anyway, he loves the beaches.

Everywhere Doug goes, he's 45 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: treated like a lied the Lion King especially. I've noticed 46 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: though that it's discriminatory because when he's dry, people respect 47 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: him more because he's fluffier and more imposing, and when 48 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: he's wet he looks meek like a pussy. 49 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 3: I mean, he is just a sweet boy. 50 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 4: So I'm not surprised that he's getting a lot of 51 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 4: getting a lot of fans in your neighborhood. 52 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: Baby, Yes, so that's happening.

Like the descriptive writing but also very beautiful, 491 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: but also quite annoying when you're eight years old, you 492 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: know what I. 493 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 5: Mean to. 494 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: I mean, now I can appreciate the beauty in descriptive writing, 495 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: but at that time I was like, if I hear 496 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: one more thing about the leaves on the trees and 497 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: the color. Like I got it right. There are fucking 498 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: trees and there are fucking leaves everywhere you look. But 499 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: what an amazing and iconic American author. You know, just 500 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: completely And I don't know why. 501 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 7: I mean, you know, I sort of I was afraid 502 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 7: because my grandfather was in the movie The Grapes of Wrath. 503 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,719 Speaker 7: John Chardine's my grandfather and he plays preacher in Grapes 504 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 7: of Wrath. And I don't know, I just I for 505 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 7: some reason, I was afraid to read it because I 506 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 7: thought maybe he'd be a little bit like Hemingway, who 507 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 7: I can't stand. I mean, just as a writer. I 508 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 7: just don't like him. And also he seems like he 509 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 7: was kind of a horrible person. But I was so wrong. 510 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 7: I was so wrong. It's one of the most beautiful 511 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 7: and you really feel like you can smell that California air, 512 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 7: that mountain desert dry you know, scrub oak, you know, 513 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 7: and the soil and the dirt. 514 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 5: You really feel like you can just you're just in it. 515 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:35,479 Speaker 5: And I love that. 516 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very Americana like for there's certain authors that 517 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: just represent like American and. 518 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 5: It's like biblical. It's like as a it's a biblical 519 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 5: story basically what he's. 520 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 3: Situation. 521 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 7: Yes, it's a canaan able thing, but it's also a 522 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 7: good and evil thing and the inherent. 523 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 5: Whether or not you're born evil or if it's beat 524 00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 5: into you. 525 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 7: And it's just this wonderful all these themes of redemption 526 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 7: and salvation and forgiveness. 527 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 5: I mean, it's just a gorgeous book. 528 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 7: And I think that the series is really it's going 529 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 7: to be really good. I have a feeling where are 530 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 7: we exciting about it? We shot it already in New Zealand, 531 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 7: which is shockingly very similar to early California, early you know, 532 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 7: eighteen hundreds California, because it wasn't settled until the eighteen hundred, 533 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,360 Speaker 7: so the architecture. 534 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,719 Speaker 5: All really looks like the Old West. 535 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 7: It's really kind of wild in the northern island of 536 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 7: New Zealand Auckland area, So that's where we shot it. 537 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 5: It was incredible. 538 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, New Zealand is so nice to be in New Zealand. Yeah, 539 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: what do you think about that? Do you think people 540 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: are born evil? 541 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 7: You know, that's a good question, and I don't know 542 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 7: if we ever know the answer. There's certainly people who 543 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 7: seem they like they were born evil. 544 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, like Steven Miller, it seems like he was born evil. 545 00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 5: It seems like, yeah, it seems like he might have 546 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 5: been born that way. 547 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: But it also makes sense that you could be so traumatized, 548 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: you know, at something that happened so early on in 549 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 1: your life, and be so kind of ignored neglected that 550 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: you could become horrible. 551 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 5: Parents were horrible, horrible, awful people too. I mean, you know, 552 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 5: I don't know. 553 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 7: But then again, you have people who are perfectly nice 554 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 7: and then they you know, they have a Jeffrey Dahmer, 555 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 7: So I don't know who knows, you know, I don't know. 556 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 5: It's a good question. 557 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: Are you good at forgiving people who have wronged you? 558 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 7: I'm good at for giving people up to a point, 559 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 7: and then when the when a line gets crossed, then 560 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 7: I'm done. So I'll give a person many many chances. 561 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 7: But then when that line gets cross when there's like 562 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 7: a betrayal or like a you know, if someone really 563 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 7: really doesn't have my back in a moment when it's necessary, 564 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 7: or if someone really really seems to be just serving 565 00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 7: themselves at my expense, then I and I say Cyanara. 566 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I have the same thing. I take on a 567 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: lot and then I get and then it. 568 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 7: Hits critical mass and I you know, way, Yeah, I'm 569 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 7: done now out of my face. 570 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 2: And when I'm done, I'm really really done. 571 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 5: Yeah. 572 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 2: I don't like to go. 573 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: I don't like recidivism, especially in relationships sexually and friendships. 574 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: Like once it's over, it's a wrap, that's it. Yeah, 575 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 1: so talk to us about the relationship with abortion and 576 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: trans writes. I think you made a comment and I 577 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: thought that was interesting to illuminate for this conversation. 578 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 5: Yeah. 579 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I think that that they fall under 580 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 7: the umbrella of bodily autonomy and doing what you feel 581 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 7: and know is right for you and your body, and 582 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 7: not letting the state control what you do with your 583 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 7: own body and what you want to be in your 584 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 7: own body and what you are in your own body. 585 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 7: I think that boat they're both incredibly they're completely intertwined, 586 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 7: and you know, you often don't see one restriction of one. 587 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 5: Group without the other. 588 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 7: You know, they always come in pairs or you know, 589 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 7: whenever you want, whatever formulation you want to use, and 590 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 7: they're both based in a core hatred of women and 591 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 7: women's difference and women's complexity and women's I don't know 592 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 7: the breadth of women's experience. Americans, a large a number 593 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 7: of them just really really hate us. They really hate women, 594 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 7: and they don't care if we die or if we suffer. 595 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 7: And when I think they don't especially like about trans people. 596 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 7: And of course I'm speaking to this as someone who 597 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 7: is not trance, so I don't have the direct experience, 598 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 7: but my guess is that what they hate so much 599 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 7: about a trans person is the person making their own choice, 600 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 7: living their own destiny, truthfully, freely, honestly, openly. They just 601 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 7: cannot stand that's something that they are unable to do 602 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 7: someone else is able to do. They just don't like 603 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 7: anybody being able to have full self. 604 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 5: Determination and autonomy because they believe in control and silence. 605 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: That's exactly what's happening. And it's not just in an 606 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: American issue. It's a global issue. Yes, absolutely, Yeah. People 607 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: don't want women to succeed in the way that women 608 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,959 Speaker 1: are succeeding, or to be as independent as women have become. 609 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: You co founded a women's healthcare called A is for. 610 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's basically I'm not a member of the organization anymore, 611 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 7: although I wish them well, it just was time for 612 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 7: me to move on. But yeah, I co founded this 613 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 7: about thirteen or fourteen years ago, and it was basically 614 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 7: an effort to take the stigma away from the whole 615 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 7: subject because abortion is healthcare. And we noticed, you know, 616 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 7: it was happening during this whole Sandra Fluck thing in 617 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 7: the ACA Obamacare, and Sandra Flick was suing Notre Dame 618 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 7: for not covering her contraceptives in when she was in 619 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 7: university there, and you know, she was being called all 620 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 7: sorts of horrible names, and women were being told to 621 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 7: keep their legs closed, or put an aspen between your 622 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 7: knees or what all these ridiculous things people were saying, 623 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 7: and you know, it just struck us that that the 624 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 7: core of what was happening at that time. Of course 625 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 7: has changed a bit, it's mutated, it's you know, grown 626 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 7: like hideous limbs, and you know, spread in various ways. 627 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 7: But at that time, we felt that the core issue 628 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 7: was stigma and we wanted to fight back. And so 629 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 7: you know, that's kind of what the basis of AS 630 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 7: four was to begin with. And now they do great 631 00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 7: work in supporting on the ground Abortion Fund, independent clinics, 632 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 7: legal aid organizations and things like this. 633 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 2: What is your advice to women listening like about fighting back. 634 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: In the current moment we're living in, you know, in America. 635 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 7: First of all, it's very important to remember that abortion 636 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 7: is still available in this country. That MiFi pristone and 637 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 7: Mesa prost doll here by the way, here two rings 638 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 7: I have. There's a Myfi pristone and that's the Mesa 639 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 7: prostall ring. 640 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 2: They do take every morning when you wake up. 641 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, they're very safe and they're very available, and obviously 642 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 7: you should check out what the laws are in your state. 643 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 7: And there are several doctors now being chased down who 644 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 7: are working in shield law states who are being attacked, 645 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 7: you know, like the doctor from New York who's the 646 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 7: Louisiana is going after him. I think there's a doctor 647 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 7: in the Bay Area who's Louisiana is going after her 648 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 7: or him attempting to sue them for wrongful death. I mean, 649 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 7: it's just insane what these people are willing to do. 650 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 7: But it's important for women to know that and for 651 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 7: anyone with a uterus to know that abortion is available 652 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 7: right and you can avail yourself of the tools to self. 653 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 5: Manage your own abortion. 654 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 7: And anyone who tells you that you can't, or that 655 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 7: you shouldn't, or that it's reversible is lying to you. 656 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 5: So that's the most important thing to know, I. 657 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 7: Think, and to remember the abortion is a community responsibility, 658 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 7: as my friend Amilia Bono at Shout Your Abortion says, 659 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 7: you know, abortion is it's everyone's job to make sure 660 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 7: that every single person in their community is able to 661 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 7: make their own decisions about their own life. It's everyone's 662 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 7: job to stand up for them and to support them 663 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 7: and to protect them. Yeah, So I think those are 664 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 7: just two things that I would say. 665 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and especially to states that like Texas where abortion 666 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: has becomeing legal and I mean I know a woman 667 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: who had to fly to San Francisco to get her abortion. 668 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 2: You know that is costly. 669 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: So like, if you are listening to this podcast and 670 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: you live in one of those places where abortion has 671 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: been criminalized, please make sure that you are helping your 672 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: friends and helping women and thinking about their healthcare as 673 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: an issue of health like this is every woman has 674 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: the right to decide what to do with her body, 675 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: not the state, not the government. So if there's someone 676 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: in your area that needs help, that needs help financing, 677 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: or you know, getting out of that state. Please make 678 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: sure that you are thinking of others and not just 679 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: of your own community. You know, try and find organizations 680 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 1: that help support that and help finance people's abortions in 681 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: other states. 682 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll put a few of those organizations.

So Megan says 704 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 4: Dear Chelsea. In twenty nineteen, right before the pandemic, I 705 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,959 Speaker 4: had an abortion. It went as well as an abortion 706 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 4: could go, and I was ultimately happy with my decision. However, 707 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 4: since then, I have developed a fear around having sex. 708 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 4: I've been happily married for five years, and I still 709 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 4: think my husband is sexy as hell. But every time 710 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 4: we have sex or even think about having sex, the 711 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 4: only thing I can think is what if I get 712 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 4: pregnant again? 713 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 3: Major buzzkill. 714 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 4: With everything happening in our country right now around reproductive rights, 715 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 4: I'm terrified that I could find myself in a position 716 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 4: where I'm forced to go through with an unwanted or 717 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 4: non viable pregnancy. Thankfully, I live in a blue state 718 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 4: where things seem to be chill on the abortion front 719 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 4: for now. But if the last few years have taught 720 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 4: me anything it's that anything can happen. All this political upheaval, 721 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 4: the pandemic, plus day to day stressors have taken a 722 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 4: serious toll on my libido. 723 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 5: Two. 724 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 4: I'd love to get back into enjoying sex. It's such 725 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 4: a great way to relax and get out of my 726 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 4: head and into my body. Plus connect with my husband, 727 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 4: but I'm not sure what steps I need to take 728 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 4: to get there. 729 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 3: Any advice, Megan. 730 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 2: It's called birth control, Megan, Hello, get them. What kind 731 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 2: of questions are these? Birth control? I ud you can 732 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 2: take a pill. You can. 733 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: You can get the melliphystaprone, the mephisto prone memphis municiprone. 734 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: You can get that meta musol. Get the melatonin melatonin 735 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: also great. No, you can get birth control. And you're 736 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: in a blue state. First of all, you're safe. You 737 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 1: should definitely start enjoying your sexual life. You know, be 738 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: happy that you have someone you're attracted to. That is 739 00:34:58,560 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: a victory in and of itself. 740 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, doing some meditation just to like actually like get 741 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 4: into your body totally outside of the sex stuff could 742 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 4: help you learn to sink into your body when you. 743 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 3: Guys are having sex. 744 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 4: I think my other big piece of advice is like, 745 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 4: if that's not working, like find a somatic therapist. 746 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 7: Like. I also think that, you know, women put so 747 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 7: much pressure on themselves. You know, maybe it's your husband's fault, right, 748 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:27,359 Speaker 7: Maybe he's not communicating. Maybe it you know, I mean, 749 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 7: it might not be you, it might be him. It 750 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 7: might be you know, she says he's sexy and everything, 751 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 7: but that ain't enough. You know, you got to be 752 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 7: a good communicator. You've got to be empathic, and you've 753 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,479 Speaker 7: got to you know, you didn't say really much about 754 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 7: what it was like when you went through your abortion, 755 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 7: if you went through it with your husband, if he 756 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 7: was supportive, if he was distant, or if you felt lonely. 757 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 7: So that's that's also, you know, don't try not to 758 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 7: blame yourself for all this. Blame it on somebody else. 759 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 7: Blame it on a man. They never get any blame 760 00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 7: the Blame it on him. 761 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: So there's some sound advice.

Since then, the 807 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,800 Speaker 4: permitting process has been a soul sucking, hope killing, multi 808 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 4: year nightmare. 809 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,360 Speaker 3: Do you know anything about that, Chelsea. 810 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 4: Here we are in twenty twenty five and her cottage 811 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 4: is just now almost done. That means she's still upstairs 812 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 4: and my kids, now five and seven, still share a 813 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 4: bedroom with me and my husband. 814 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 3: Oh my god, let me say this. She's not a 815 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:27,839 Speaker 3: monster in law. 816 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 4: She's kind, She's helped us financially, she loves us, But 817 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,320 Speaker 4: she's always been a lot. Even when I was a 818 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 4: teenager dating her son, she was already the kind of 819 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 4: person I felt mildly allergic to, chatting to a level 820 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 4: that feels like psychological warfare, socially unaware, messy, kind of lazy, 821 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 4: and completely incapable of reading a room. She talks through 822 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 4: every silence, she lingers in doorways when I'm just trying 823 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 4: to mother my children in peace. Being around her twenty 824 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 4: four to seven has turned all those little quirks into 825 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 4: rage triggers. 826 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 1: For me. 827 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 3: I twitch at the sound of her footsteps. 828 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 4: I get angry when she breathes too loud, and I 829 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 4: know that makes me sound up kind, but. 830 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 3: It is the truth. 831 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 4: So after three years of this, I've grown deeply resentful. 832 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 4: Early motherhood was supposed to be sacred for me, and 833 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 4: instead I've been in this constant state of stress. Meanwhile, 834 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 4: my husband and I have tiptoed around our intimacy, spending 835 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,360 Speaker 4: three years as a family of four crammed into one bedroom. 836 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 4: I know she didn't ask for this tragedy either. She 837 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,479 Speaker 4: lost her husband, she's retired, she's lonely. She probably means well, 838 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 4: But just because I know all that doesn't mean I 839 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 4: know how to stop feeling the way I do. 840 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 3: My husband's on the same page. I'm not proud of 841 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 3: the tone. 842 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 4: I take with her, or how I avoid her like 843 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 4: a sulky teenager, or how I let her mere presence 844 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,360 Speaker 4: ruin my day. I don't want credit, I don't want pity. 845 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 4: I want tools to stop mentally living in this resentment swamp. 846 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,800 Speaker 4: I want to be kind, especially because she's not going anywhere. 847 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,799 Speaker 4: She'll be fifty feet from my back door for the 848 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 4: rest of our lives. How do I get there? 849 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: Sincerely, teaken Hi, this is our special guest, Martha Plimpton 850 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:51,400 Speaker 1: is here today. 851 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,439 Speaker 5: Hi. Hi, Wow, what a conundrum. 852 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: Yes, you've survived. 853 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 2: First of all, you've survived this. I can't. 854 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I cannot believe you've been sharing a bedroom 855 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 1: with your children. I can relate seven, I can relate 856 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: to first. I mean, I can relate to a lot 857 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:12,479 Speaker 1: of it. But I can relate to the real estate 858 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: fiasco of it all. It is is soul crushing to 859 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,479 Speaker 1: constantly be told and to take an advantage of over 860 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: and over again, and be told something is going to come, 861 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: be ready and not be ready. It's just like the 862 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 1: emotional toll that that takes. I totally get it. But 863 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 1: here's the great news. She's moving into the cottage, so 864 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,240 Speaker 1: fifty feet away is going to be exactly the amount 865 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: of space you need. That might not sound like a lot, 866 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 1: but she's going to be out of your you know, 867 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 1: like inside your house. And even though she's going to 868 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 1: be loitering around and lingering, it's going to change the 869 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 1: dynamic like exponentially just by having your own room back 870 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: and giving your kids their own room, you know. And 871 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: so first of all, I would if I were in 872 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: your situation, I would have started taking well betrin or 873 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: something like. 874 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 2: I would take a moodlifter. 875 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: Honestly, I would go to my doctor and be like, listen, 876 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: something is really irritating me and I need something to 877 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: take the edge off. I do that in times in 878 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: my life when I really need it, when I'm very, 879 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 1: very irritable, and I don't do it long term, but 880 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 1: I do ask my doctor, like, what's something that will 881 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 1: take the edge off. Another way to go is to 882 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: actually just write down the kind of relationship that you 883 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 1: want to have with her. Write down that now you 884 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: can even do this together with her, You can even 885 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: bring her into this and go, hay usen, we just 886 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,800 Speaker 1: went through something that most families don't survive. 887 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 2: We survived it. 888 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 1: Let's figure out how we can move forward with giving us. 889 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 2: Each other the right amount of space. 890 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 1: She couldn't have loved living inside your house as much either, 891 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 1: Like she didn't. She probably was irritated by that whole situation. 892 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 6: Yeah. Absolutely, it's definitely been hard on all of us, 893 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 6: and we're very much aligned in that. 894 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 1: You know, we decided to do this together. 895 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 6: We're going to get it, get through it all together, 896 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 6: and every set of a step of the way. You know, 897 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 6: we've I've made sure to say to her, you know, 898 00:41:58,480 --> 00:41:59,400 Speaker 6: nobody asked for this. 899 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 1: We didn't know what we didn't know. 900 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 6: So I think I can definitely agree to that. 901 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 1: Good for you, Good for you for like for even 902 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 1: you know, doing this and going through it. But now 903 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,320 Speaker 1: it's a great opportunity for you guys to even understand 904 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 1: each other better by sitting down together. Whether you want 905 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: to do this and include your husband, I mean men 906 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 1: are pretty useless, so you might just mean, well, just 907 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 1: do it without him. You and her sit down together 908 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,800 Speaker 1: and go, Okay, what are some rules we can follow 909 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 1: for each other? To give each other some space now 910 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 1: that we have it, like what's going to make you comfortable, 911 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 1: what's going to make me comfortable? So that you're doing 912 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: it together and kind of like developing a road map 913 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,320 Speaker 1: in concert with each other out of respect for women, 914 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like like you come at 915 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: it like I want to respect you and I want 916 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,160 Speaker 1: you to respect me, and I don't want any weird feelings. 917 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 1: So let's talk about these last four years.

Dev says 1033 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 4: dear Chelsea. I'm twenty five and from the Midwest. I'm 1034 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 4: currently experiencing the worst betrayal of my life. I've been 1035 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 4: cheated on in almost every one of my relationships, and 1036 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:26,839 Speaker 4: when I got to this most recent one, I felt 1037 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 4: I finally healed and was ready to trust. We had 1038 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 4: so many what I thought were honest conversations about our 1039 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 4: past and how we could be good partners for each other. 1040 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 4: I found out after posting the first time, my first 1041 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 4: post with him, after about five months of dating, that 1042 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 4: he had been having a full blown affair under my 1043 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:44,760 Speaker 4: nose and now I can see. 1044 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 3: Basically rubbing it into my face. 1045 00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 4: The girl DMed me, and he denied it until I 1046 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 4: was reading him the damning messages he sent to her. 1047 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 4: In hindsight, I had a few moments of questioning. I 1048 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 4: always chose to trust him to avoid the toxic patterns 1049 00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 4: of relationships I've been in the past. He was never 1050 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 4: going to tell me or end it, and his reaction 1051 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 4: to be finding out truly makes me believe he's not 1052 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,360 Speaker 4: even sorry. Logically, I know all I can do is 1053 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,759 Speaker 4: move forward.

But you know, listen, I'm terrible 1132 00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 7: for this because I've been through the same thing so 1133 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:57,799 Speaker 7: many times. 1134 00:51:57,880 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 5: It's ridiculous. 1135 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 7: So know, all I can say is your way ahead 1136 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 7: of where I was at your age. 1137 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 1: And you also have to remember that you set the 1138 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 1: tone for like who's in your life. 1139 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:08,080 Speaker 2: You set the standard. 1140 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:10,840 Speaker 1: Like a personal story for me, recently, somebody tried to 1141 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: set me up. This was a few months ago. Somebody 1142 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 1: tried to set me up. This person was rich, famous, gorgeous, 1143 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 1: all of the like, you know, very attractive qualities. And 1144 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 1: then I sat I had a couple of conversations with 1145 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 1: him before you know, I decided to go out with him. 1146 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 2: I was like, let me just talk to. 1147 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,319 Speaker 1: This guy, because I don't really want to waste my time. 1148 00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 1: I'm in a place in my life. That's not dissimilar 1149 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 1: from where Martha is. Where I enjoy my own company. 1150 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,120 Speaker 1: I like to be alone. I like my time alone. 1151 00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,360 Speaker 1: I'm happy alone. I mean, I'm not very self sufficient, 1152 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 1: so that's where I have a conflict because I need 1153 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:40,680 Speaker 1: people to help me all the time. 1154 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 2: But so this guy was all of these things. 1155 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: I talked to this guy three times and I was like, 1156 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,680 Speaker 1: definitely not. This guy talked about himself in like, he 1157 00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: didn't ask me any questions about myself. He talked about 1158 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 1: himself NonStop. Everything was about him and his schedule and 1159 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 1: what his work and when he was shooting this and 1160 00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: when he would be available to meet based on his openings. 1161 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:04,760 Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, this is a huge red flag, 1162 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,600 Speaker 1: Like this is not a relationship. This is not somebody 1163 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:09,719 Speaker 1: I want to be in a relationship with. And the 1164 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 1: biggest narcissist that I ever dated. And I've dated a couple, 1165 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 1: but I don't have a repeated pattern of dating narcissists, 1166 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: but one I did, like, it's very obvious when someone 1167 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 1: is out for themselves and their own best interests supersede yours, 1168 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 1: Like that is a very obvious thing to identify. So 1169 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,839 Speaker 1: now that you've had exposure to that, you should have 1170 00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:30,440 Speaker 1: no problem identifying it. 1171 00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:34,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, and I already had the epiphany that I was 1172 00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:38,440 Speaker 8: the common denominator in this pattern, and so the calls 1173 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,319 Speaker 8: coming from inside the house and. 1174 00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 5: Working on Matt. 1175 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 7: But also just remember a common theme today is don't 1176 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:52,240 Speaker 7: get down on yourself. You know, these guys they're the problem. 1177 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:56,320 Speaker 7: You know, you might you know, you're looking for something 1178 00:53:56,840 --> 00:54:01,320 Speaker 7: that is exciting and interesting and makes you feel loved 1179 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:05,840 Speaker 7: and appreciated, and they're the ones who are who are disappointing, 1180 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:09,319 Speaker 7: not you. So it's okay to not be down on 1181 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:12,440 Speaker 7: yourself and to go you know what. Sure, there are obviously, 1182 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 7: or maybe there are things about you know, your childhood 1183 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 7: or where you come from that make you seek out, 1184 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,040 Speaker 7: you know, a thing that you want to repair from 1185 00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:25,880 Speaker 7: your past. But that's not a fault, that's not a flaw. 1186 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,839 Speaker 7: That's a normal human thing that all human beings do. 1187 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 7: It's a question of whether or not the person that 1188 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 7: you seek out is able to see that and respect. 1189 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 5: It and meet you where you are. That's what it's about. 1190 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 7: Yeah, don't bring yourself down, don't talk yourself down, you know, 1191 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 7: talk them down. 1192 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,319 Speaker 1: They're the assholes and talk yourself up for you know, 1193 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 1: knowing that there's a problem you change. If you change 1194 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,799 Speaker 1: your behavior, you're going to change the outcome, you know 1195 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:51,239 Speaker 1: what I mean. 1196 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:52,760 Speaker 2: That's as simple as it gets. 1197 00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,680 Speaker 1: So as long as you start making better decisions and 1198 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,799 Speaker 1: identifying patterns of behavior, which you're doing by calling in, 1199 00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 1: by admitting all this, you're going to change, and you're 1200 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 1: going to and the men you're going to date are 1201 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:04,279 Speaker 1: going to change as well. 1202 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 8: I do feel like I've already had a change from 1203 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:11,960 Speaker 8: feeling like so wounded in my ego to realizing that 1204 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,839 Speaker 8: I am not my ego and the fact that someone 1205 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 8: else wasn't able to value me and everything I have 1206 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 8: to offer doesn't diminish my value great and like I 1207 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,480 Speaker 8: have not to toot my own horn, but such a 1208 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 8: bright light that I can share and touch in so 1209 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:31,839 Speaker 8: many people's lives that it's their loss fully completely hard. 1210 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 8: Stop he is such a loser. 1211 00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:39,640 Speaker 5: I love it.

So Ali says, Dear Chelsea, I'm 1250 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 4: a thirty year old woman with a husband and daughter, 1251 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 4: and my dad is driving me fucking nuts. My parents 1252 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,440 Speaker 4: had me when they were young and were never married 1253 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:33,560 Speaker 4: and separated when I was too little to even remember 1254 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,160 Speaker 4: them being together. But my dad was always very involved 1255 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 4: in my life. My parents co parented fantastically and had 1256 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 4: a close friendship. He contributed greatly to paying for my college, 1257 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 4: never missed a child support payment, and was the furthest 1258 00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 4: thing from a deadbeat dad. We got along great during 1259 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 4: my childhood. He was like the Disneyland dad type of parent. 1260 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:53,200 Speaker 4: And then in twenty to nineteen, I started therapy and 1261 00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:55,040 Speaker 4: I have started consuming a lot of what I call. 1262 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:56,560 Speaker 3: Therapy podcasts like yours. 1263 00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:59,920 Speaker 4: Being in therapy, becoming a mom and learning about attachment styles, 1264 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 4: mindfulness and boundary setting has been a huge transformation for me. 1265 00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 4: Without sounding too patronizing, I'm now hyper aware of everyone's 1266 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 4: emotional maturity around me, and this has led to my 1267 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 4: dad driving me fucking nuts. I think he has undiagnosed 1268 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 4: ADHD anxious attachment, and he's very paranoid of other people 1269 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 4: since my daughter was born. He's very needy of my attention, 1270 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:23,480 Speaker 4: sometimes calling me multiple times today. He's disrespectful of boundaries 1271 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:25,440 Speaker 4: and will frequently say things like I need to come 1272 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:27,760 Speaker 4: over this week, or I'm running errands, but I'm going 1273 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:29,440 Speaker 4: to call you soon, so make sure you pick up, 1274 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 4: or you better stop breastfeeding soon. 1275 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 3: He calls me all. 1276 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 4: The time, but we'll only talk about himself and has 1277 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:37,000 Speaker 4: a lot of difficulty paying attention to what I'm saying, 1278 00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 4: or he just wants to sit on the phone and 1279 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,720 Speaker 4: has nothing to really say. He's an ass to his girlfriend. 1280 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:43,920 Speaker 4: He constantly interrupts her and tells her what to do. 1281 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 4: He owns his own Company's very bossing to everyone around him. 1282 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:49,440 Speaker 4: I've noticed a lot of patterns of misogyny where he 1283 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 4: pretty aggressively complains about the women in his life and 1284 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 4: Judge's mothers. Every time I try to set a boundary, 1285 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 4: he pushes back. If he's on a paranoid rant about 1286 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 4: someone who's bothering him, and I try to offer other perspectives, 1287 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:03,080 Speaker 4: he gets and defensive. It's becoming intolerable to spend time 1288 00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 4: with him, and I feel myself being. 1289 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,080 Speaker 3: Short and more confrontational with him. 1290 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:08,760 Speaker 4: My question is, how do you cope with maintaining a 1291 00:59:08,760 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 4: positive relationship with a loved one who drives. 1292 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 5: You up the wall? 1293 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,840 Speaker 3: Am I being the asshole? After going through therapy? 1294 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 4: Do I now just require everyone around me to also 1295 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 4: be in therapy in order for me to stand them. 1296 00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 3: Thanks for reading this very long email. 1297 00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 4: And I apologize for any typos as I am dyslexic. 1298 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:25,520 Speaker 4: I got that from him too, Ali. 1299 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 1: I would send that letter to your father, Seriously, why not? 1300 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he's not going to fucking listen any other way. 1301 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 1: I would send exactly that letter and go. I had 1302 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 1: to write into a podcast because of how much time 1303 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,360 Speaker 1: you're taking up out of my life because it's right. 1304 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:40,880 Speaker 2: There, it's right there. 1305 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:44,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, It's much more effective, in my opinion, to put 1306 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 1: something in writing, because saying it out loud it could 1307 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 1: be obfuscated, and it could be turned around, and it 1308 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 1: can be manipulated. And if you put it there, he 1309 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,880 Speaker 1: can reflect and look back on it. And while it's harsh, 1310 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 1: some people really need to be treated harshly so that 1311 00:59:57,600 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 1: they could actually get their shit together. And yeah, I 1312 00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:01,400 Speaker 1: would man that he has to go to therapy in 1313 01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:02,400 Speaker 1: order to be around you. 1314 01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Martha thoughts. 1315 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 5: I agree. I agree. 1316 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 7: So I say, even just send the letter that you 1317 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 7: wrote into the podcast like verbatim. 1318 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 5: However, he's gonna respond. 1319 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:15,640 Speaker 7: At least you've gotten it off your chest and you've 1320 01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 7: said it, and then once you've said it, then you 1321 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 7: can go, Okay, this is what I was talking about 1322 01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:23,640 Speaker 7: in that letter. Yeah, so I got to go, or 1323 01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 7: this is what I was talking about in that letter, 1324 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 7: and I'm gonna end this conversation now, or I'm going 1325 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 7: to hang up now you know what I mean, And 1326 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 7: you don't have to say it meanly, and you don't 1327 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,120 Speaker 7: have to get angry, you don't even have to raise 1328 01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:35,960 Speaker 7: your voice. You have to go, see, this is what 1329 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 7: I was talking about. So if you want to take 1330 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,520 Speaker 7: note and maybe change it, that would be great. 1331 01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 5: Otherwise I got to go now. 1332 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:43,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that because pointing it out in the 1333 01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 4: moment of like did you hear how you just talk 1334 01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:46,960 Speaker 4: to your girlfriend or did you hear how you just 1335 01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 4: boss that person around? 1336 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:49,880 Speaker 3: Or like what would you know about breastfeeding? And when 1337 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:53,240 Speaker 3: it's time to stop you when I. 1338 01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 7: Feel like asking questions about these people is usually a 1339 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 7: road to ruin for me. It's not about asking questions, 1340 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,800 Speaker 7: it's about Okay, this is what I was talking about, 1341 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 7: and this is what bothers me. And if you want 1342 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:11,280 Speaker 7: to change it, that's great. If you don't, goodbye. It's 1343 01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 7: very cut and dried with me, particularly with men, I 1344 01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 7: just feel like it's very important not. 1345 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 5: To leave them an inch, not an inch. 1346 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 7: Because they will take it. They will take it and 1347 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,200 Speaker 7: they will run and they will take that literally. I 1348 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:28,760 Speaker 7: mean it's the oldest expression in the book, because it's true. 1349 01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 7: You know, you give men an inch and they take 1350 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,880 Speaker 7: a mile. Laying down those boundaries and also knowing that 1351 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:38,560 Speaker 7: you're right, you don't have to argue, You don't have 1352 01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:40,439 Speaker 7: to argue with him, you don't have to tell him 1353 01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:44,479 Speaker 7: you know anything other than what it is. You just say, look, 1354 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:47,440 Speaker 7: this behavior is just not okay with me, and I'm 1355 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:48,440 Speaker 7: not going to get into it. 1356 01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:50,440 Speaker 5: I'm not going to fight with you.

Then he has a excuse. 1366 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,760 Speaker 7: That's his reference point, right, And then and you don't 1367 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 7: have it's not a discussion.
