<v Speaker 1>And what do you do?

0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:23.760
<v Speaker 3>I We're going to venture capital firm in Salt Lake City.

0:00:23.880 --> 0:00:27.600
<v Speaker 3>We invest in tech startup companies, so mostly software.

0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Can you give us any good investments? Is that allowed?

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:38.239
<v Speaker 3>We invest in the private markets, so unless you are

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:44.960
<v Speaker 3>an accredited investor, not really Robin Hood. Really that's what

0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:45.239
<v Speaker 3>I do.

0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 2>Okay, wait, you're in Salt Lake City?

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:50.879
<v Speaker 4>Are you all up in with the Mormon wives and

0:00:50.920 --> 0:00:52.680
<v Speaker 4>the housewives and Hake?

0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I mean, I just finished it this weekend.

0:00:57.400 --> 0:01:03.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm gobsmacked. I'm floored. I'm like eating up every single

0:01:03.080 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 3>second of it, and they like just keep giving us

0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:09.880
<v Speaker 3>more because they're all so online and they're all doing

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:13.880
<v Speaker 3>their press tour right now, so I'm like gobbling it up.

0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:17.400
<v Speaker 2>I love it. I know, I'm so entertaining. It is.

0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:19.240
<v Speaker 2>It's really good it's really it's.

0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:21.119
<v Speaker 3>The best show. Oh my gosh.

0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:23.800
<v Speaker 4>I went to Park City in March for like two

0:01:23.920 --> 0:01:27.480
<v Speaker 4>nights for a brand trip and hey, it's beautiful. Like

0:01:27.560 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 4>I'm dying to go back, but I really wanted to

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:31.800
<v Speaker 4>go to Swig, which for those listening is like they're

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:33.200
<v Speaker 4>iconic soda shops.

0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 2>And I didn't make it. I didn't have time, but

0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:37.479
<v Speaker 2>I had to come back. Yeah.

0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:41.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, those are yeah, like like soda that they like,

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 1>they like make soda, right, we put more sugar in it,

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:48.400
<v Speaker 1>more sugar. Yeah, but it's like it's like natural sugar, right,

0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:49.680
<v Speaker 1>sugarcane or is it?

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:53.200
<v Speaker 2>They have the fun flavor. It's like you know, cumps

0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:53.800
<v Speaker 2>of stuff.

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:57.559
<v Speaker 4>It's like making like a mocktail, but with only like soda,

0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:59.680
<v Speaker 4>and you had coconut cream and it's like all this

0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:00.400
<v Speaker 4>cool stuff.

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Well, because if you're Mormon, you you're not supposed to

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:09.359
<v Speaker 1>drink alcohol, correct, alcohol, no caffeine either, right, anything that can.

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:11.639
<v Speaker 3>Be addictive we're supposed to stay away from. So it's

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:16.600
<v Speaker 3>like even like lifestyle like gambling or like, you know,

0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:20.160
<v Speaker 3>anything that is habit forming and kind of inhibits your

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 3>freedom to choose and like your you know, agency we're

0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:30.040
<v Speaker 3>encouraged to stay away from. I have for sure dabbled

0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 3>and some of the you know, things we're not supposed

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 3>to do. I have caffeine, I have my uptimes every morning,

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:42.320
<v Speaker 3>but I try to, you know, do my best. I

0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:44.720
<v Speaker 3>think it's not even a religious thing as much as

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:46.600
<v Speaker 3>it's like a wellbeing thing. Like I don't think that

0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:49.120
<v Speaker 3>anyone can argue that. I don't think there's any religion

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:52.120
<v Speaker 3>that encourages drinking copious amounts of alcohol, you know what

0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:55.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean, Like it's just kind of self care, looking

0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 3>after yourself. There's science that backs it up.

0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:01.040
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I mean there's so much now that's coming.

0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:03.639
<v Speaker 1>I feel like the especially like the younger generation, is

0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.040
<v Speaker 1>drinking so much less because there's just so much more

0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:08.840
<v Speaker 1>on social media that we're exposed to that's showing that,

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:13.640
<v Speaker 1>like drinking is like even like two drinks a week

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:15.840
<v Speaker 1>will mess up your sleep.

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well I have the or ring now and just

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.799
<v Speaker 4>seeing if I have like two glasses of wine, even

0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:24.600
<v Speaker 4>if it's at like five six pm, the amount of

0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:26.800
<v Speaker 4>time it takes from my heart rate to drop to

0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:30.040
<v Speaker 4>its lowest point, which is what you want when you're sleeping,

0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:31.519
<v Speaker 4>Like you want that to happen in the first half

0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:33.919
<v Speaker 4>of your sleep, and if you have like two drinks,

0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:35.800
<v Speaker 4>that usually doesn't happen until like six am.

0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:36.560
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, wow, this.

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 4>Is crazy because I feel like I'll be like, oh,

0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:40.080
<v Speaker 4>I'm stressed, like I'm gonna have a glass of wine

0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 4>try to like relax, but it's not actually helping. I

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 4>don't know the size. There's just so much more science

0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 4>now than their aver hasmen. I feel like round alcohol,

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:50.120
<v Speaker 4>Oh totally. And those glucose monitors. I want to do

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:51.320
<v Speaker 4>one of those this summer.

0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:55.360
<v Speaker 3>To those that they just it's like I think they're

0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:58.120
<v Speaker 3>similar to what people with diabetes. Square at the monitor

0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.200
<v Speaker 3>your gluecoast and just see what foods your blood sugar

0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 3>spikes too, and like how long it takes your body

0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 3>to kind of regulate your glucose levels.

0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh so interesting.

0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm scared because after you learn that info, then you

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:17.080
<v Speaker 3>have to eat when you're like conscious of it. Yeah, exactly.

0:04:17.520 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 4>So Like I have a friend who her doctors like

0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:22.479
<v Speaker 4>you might be gluten intolerant, like you might be have

0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 4>an issue with gluten.

0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:25.039
<v Speaker 2>She's like, I won't be getting tested for that, Like

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I don't want to know. Yeah, She's like,

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 2>I'll just suffer if that's.

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:32.560
<v Speaker 1>The well, I never eat like I never eat like

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:35.039
<v Speaker 1>sub sandwiches anymore because I know I don't want to

0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:36.360
<v Speaker 1>ever eat lunch eat anymore.

0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:40.800
<v Speaker 4>I know you're a little extreme sometimes, but I mean, yeah,

0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:43.800
<v Speaker 4>it's hard once you learn the information to forget it

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:46.279
<v Speaker 4>and look past it. Sometimes when you know something's not

0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:48.000
<v Speaker 4>good for you that you've like thought is good for you.

0:04:49.360 --> 0:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>Should we talk about some Bachelor stuff. How did you

0:04:54.080 --> 0:04:57.599
<v Speaker 1>You had a great time, lovely ending to the season. Now,

0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:59.640
<v Speaker 1>how how did you get.

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:03.640
<v Speaker 3>So? I had a friend I don't know if you

0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:08.480
<v Speaker 3>guys know Kiki worked on the show. She was a handler, yes,

0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:10.640
<v Speaker 3>so much in college?

0:05:11.360 --> 0:05:14.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no way, that's crazy. She was a handler on

0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:16.520
<v Speaker 4>my season of The Bachelor.

0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:18.760
<v Speaker 2>And then when we're on Paradise.

0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:22.240
<v Speaker 3>Okay, yeah, she's the best. So I was reminked with

0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:24.039
<v Speaker 3>her in college when she was working on the Bachelor.

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:25.719
<v Speaker 3>She's like, you got to do it like you would,

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:29.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, And at the time I was dating someone

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:33.080
<v Speaker 3>or was scared, and so just last summer I was

0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:34.920
<v Speaker 3>talking to her and she was like, I mean, you

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:36.919
<v Speaker 3>should still do it, like you should try because I

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 3>was complaining about dating, and so I was like, Okay,

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:41.599
<v Speaker 3>we'll just send it see how it goes.

0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:43.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and then that was that.

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they were like at the end of the casting process.

0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:49.720
<v Speaker 3>I think it was like later in the summer, and

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.680
<v Speaker 3>so I feel lucky because I didn't have to wait

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.040
<v Speaker 3>like I think some people applied in like February and

0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 3>it's like a long waiting game and you guys know,

0:05:57.800 --> 0:05:59.599
<v Speaker 3>like you don't know that you're going till you know.

0:05:59.800 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 2>So, yeah, I was in the same boat as you.

0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:05.000
<v Speaker 4>I literally applied and was cast like a month later

0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:07.279
<v Speaker 4>and then was like flying out, which was kind of

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:07.880
<v Speaker 4>a blessing.

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, exactly What did you think when Grant was announced?

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:15.960
<v Speaker 1>He was he your type?

0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? I love like tall, goofy bros. Like tall, goofy,

0:06:20.279 --> 0:06:22.719
<v Speaker 3>sporty bros. That's my type.

0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Well you think Grant gives off goofy.

0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:28.040
<v Speaker 2>A little bit?

0:06:28.160 --> 0:06:33.839
<v Speaker 1>Oh well, that's interesting. See he comes across very serious.

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:35.719
<v Speaker 4>To me when he comes on the podcast. He's definitely

0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 4>more serious, but I feel like he's in.

0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:38.839
<v Speaker 2>Like bachelor pr mode.

0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, totally.

0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:42.560
<v Speaker 4>He's not giving off that like playful side. He's like

0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:43.640
<v Speaker 4>more cautious of what he says.

0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:46.800
<v Speaker 3>I think he's like goofy. I don't even mean goofy

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.240
<v Speaker 3>like like he's like funny with his jokes. I mean

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:53.200
<v Speaker 3>like he's just kind of like goofy, like like his

0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.719
<v Speaker 3>feet are too big or like like he's just kind

0:06:55.760 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 3>of like harmless. I guess, like non threatening is like

0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:06.960
<v Speaker 3>like Teddy yeah yeah, yeah, like just like approachable and

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:09.000
<v Speaker 3>like a normal guy, like he's not trying to like

0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 3>right uptight.

0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't, I don't. I don't don't like I think

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I think, yeah.

0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:18.600
<v Speaker 2>But you're a different kind of goofy.

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:20.560
<v Speaker 1>But you know what I'm saying, Like I think like

0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Grant just doesn't give me that. But I don't know.

0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 4>But like if I'm at a bar and I'm looking

0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:28.720
<v Speaker 4>at Grant and I'm looking at you the as a woman,

0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:33.440
<v Speaker 4>there's a different approachableness, there's a different energy that's being

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:34.080
<v Speaker 4>put out there.

0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:37.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, and I don't know if this really

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:40.640
<v Speaker 3>came through, but like you, we would be walking somewhere

0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:43.440
<v Speaker 3>and we would have to like stop and like this

0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.280
<v Speaker 3>is what we're doing today, or you know that kind

0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 3>of stuff. He would blow past his mark every time

0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:50.120
<v Speaker 3>and just kind of like all shut like and I

0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:51.920
<v Speaker 3>was I would have to like I'm like, where are

0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 3>we supposed to stop? Like okay, and then I would

0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:56.040
<v Speaker 3>just do it so we don't have to do it

0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:58.120
<v Speaker 3>a bunch of times or like during my whole little

0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:01.720
<v Speaker 3>space like move and right exactly. Yeah, just like kind

0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:04.000
<v Speaker 3>of so I don't know if goofy is the right word,

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:08.480
<v Speaker 3>but just kind of like a yeah, a little bit,

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:09.520
<v Speaker 3>yeah totally.

0:08:09.760 --> 0:08:11.360
<v Speaker 4>What was your dating in life like before you went

0:08:11.400 --> 0:08:13.640
<v Speaker 4>on the Bachelor, what was your relationship history.

0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:19.040
<v Speaker 3>I had had a couple long term relationships. I am

0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:23.160
<v Speaker 3>a relationship girl, So I hate dating. I don't like

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:28.520
<v Speaker 3>meeting people like in a dating sense, just it's a

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:34.120
<v Speaker 3>lot of pressure and anxiety and so and it takes

0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:36.679
<v Speaker 3>me like a long time to really like be interested

0:08:36.720 --> 0:08:41.240
<v Speaker 3>in someone. And so it's I'm typically a slow burn

0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.920
<v Speaker 3>type of a girl. Not on the show, but that's

0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.000
<v Speaker 3>like how I am typically.

0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:49.720
<v Speaker 4>Okay, So you kind of like you like to invest

0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.240
<v Speaker 4>in one person if you think it's gonna go somewhere,

0:08:52.320 --> 0:08:54.959
<v Speaker 4>really like focus on that relationship.

0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.200
<v Speaker 3>Be friends first, and like get to know each other's

0:08:57.200 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 3>friends and spend time together getting to know each other.

0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:03.800
<v Speaker 1>So, like most of us, you kind of like step

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:05.640
<v Speaker 1>out of your comfort zone and you go on this

0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 1>dating show. What were your biggest reservations before going on

0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:15.240
<v Speaker 1>or did you have any?

0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:22.319
<v Speaker 3>I mean probably all the usual suspects, like getting canceled

0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:26.840
<v Speaker 3>or looking stupid that I was gonna cry, or like

0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:31.400
<v Speaker 3>I would have to be in a dramatic situation and

0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:34.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, put in an unflattering light, like I think

0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.840
<v Speaker 3>just being observed is. I was just scared of that

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.840
<v Speaker 3>because you know, I like I watch reality shows. I

0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:44.959
<v Speaker 3>see the comment sections, and you know, people are people

0:09:44.960 --> 0:09:49.480
<v Speaker 3>are harsh, and you don't really have control over other

0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:54.760
<v Speaker 3>people obviously, but then also you know how it's portrayed,

0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:57.880
<v Speaker 3>and even that is different than how people perceive it,

0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:02.959
<v Speaker 3>you know, So I think that was a new thing.

0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:06.600
<v Speaker 3>Like specifically on TikTok this season, it's been a lot

0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:09.520
<v Speaker 3>of people like commentating of like this is what producers

0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:12.160
<v Speaker 3>want us to think, but I know that this is

0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.040
<v Speaker 3>what was really going on and stuff, and it's like

0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.240
<v Speaker 3>you're wrong, Like that's not true at all.

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:20.720
<v Speaker 4>Like how could you you were never a producer on

0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:21.280
<v Speaker 4>the show.

0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:24.160
<v Speaker 2>You never also were on the show.

0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.680
<v Speaker 3>We're a producer on the show last season? You weren't there,

0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:29.440
<v Speaker 3>Like you weren't there. You don't know what was going on,

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:35.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, Yeah, it's like they're condensing like everything that happened,

0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:39.360
<v Speaker 3>you know, hundreds of hours of footage into like two hours.

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:43.120
<v Speaker 4>Of like see speculation where you're like, oh, that's actually

0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:43.840
<v Speaker 4>I was different.

0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:45.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't know everything that happened.

0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:48.320
<v Speaker 2>Yes, totally, just fear of the unknown.

0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:51.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm a planner. I like knowing how things are going

0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:55.480
<v Speaker 3>to turn out, and I can, you know, typically anticipate

0:10:55.800 --> 0:10:58.080
<v Speaker 3>how things are generally going to go, and so that

0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:01.240
<v Speaker 3>was definitely a leap of faith.

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:04.079
<v Speaker 2>Did you watch the show before you went on it?

0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:09.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Oh, I had seen seasons before. I wasn't like

0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:13.480
<v Speaker 3>a religious watcher. If I liked the lead or liked

0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:17.080
<v Speaker 3>any of the contestants, particularly like I would always you know,

0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:19.480
<v Speaker 3>the first episode is so fun to watch, just like

0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.920
<v Speaker 3>what everyone wears and their engineces and kind of get

0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:25.240
<v Speaker 3>a sense of everything and the message, and I keep watching.

0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:29.600
<v Speaker 3>But I dabbled a little bit before.

0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:38.880
<v Speaker 1>What was your favorite parts or what were you pleasantly

0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:42.520
<v Speaker 1>surprised about once you got on the show, The experience

0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:43.559
<v Speaker 1>and like going through it.

0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:50.600
<v Speaker 3>I think the girls I hit it off with almost

0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.959
<v Speaker 3>everyone on Night one and I feel like I got

0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:58.079
<v Speaker 3>closer to a lot of the girls pretty early on

0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:02.400
<v Speaker 3>and so and there who you spend most of your

0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:07.080
<v Speaker 3>time with. So it was like if I didn't feel

0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:09.240
<v Speaker 3>close to them, or if I didn't have them to

0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:13.560
<v Speaker 3>kind of like rely on and commiserate a little bit with,

0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:17.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that I could have done it. I

0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.559
<v Speaker 3>feel like we really looked out. I really lucked out.

0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:22.600
<v Speaker 3>I really liked everyone.

0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Who are you closest with? Would you say?

0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:35.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm probably closest with Dina, Serafina, Alex and Natalie.

0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:39.800
<v Speaker 4>Oh, yeah, we saw you. Dina and Sarafina were in

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:40.959
<v Speaker 4>Chicago together, right.

0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:45.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, with Karsa we went like right after AFR,

0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:49.360
<v Speaker 3>I think, yeah, yeah, it seems like forever going out.

0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:52.280
<v Speaker 3>But that was so fun. Yeah, oh that was the best.

0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:53.440
<v Speaker 3>Chicago was so fun.

0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I love it that.

0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:56.840
<v Speaker 2>It's a good city. Yeah, his hometown.

0:12:56.960 --> 0:13:00.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, my friend Oh that's right. Yeah, my cousin's

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:03.080
<v Speaker 1>actually friends with Dinah, that's right.

0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:05.720
<v Speaker 3>I listened to her episode and yeah, I heard you

0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:06.560
<v Speaker 3>guys put that together.

0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:12.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so what has so like? Everybody listening to this

0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:18.000
<v Speaker 1>definitely watched your finale and knows what happened what's been

0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:21.280
<v Speaker 1>going on post show? Have you step back in the

0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 1>dating world at all?

0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:29.840
<v Speaker 3>A little bit, not a ton. I've been traveling a bunch,

0:13:30.559 --> 0:13:36.720
<v Speaker 3>and I feel like I am up against my same

0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:41.439
<v Speaker 3>issues that I had before coming of just meeting people.

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:41.959
<v Speaker 3>It's tough.

0:13:42.080 --> 0:13:45.520
<v Speaker 4>You know, are you something that would be open to

0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.160
<v Speaker 4>moving for love or are you really hoping to find

0:13:48.200 --> 0:13:50.679
<v Speaker 4>someone in Salt Lake City or would be willing to

0:13:50.720 --> 0:13:53.640
<v Speaker 4>move to Salt Lake City.

0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:57.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm definitely open to moving. I think, especially early

0:13:57.880 --> 0:14:01.840
<v Speaker 3>on in our relationship. I just thought that with Grant too.

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:06.920
<v Speaker 3>I think it's like very helpful for like a relationship

0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:11.000
<v Speaker 3>or like a marriage to be kind of a satellite

0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:15.280
<v Speaker 3>and kind of you don't have like it's not lopsided

0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:17.320
<v Speaker 3>in terms of support. I guess that you just have

0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:19.440
<v Speaker 3>each other to rely on. It like brings you closer.

0:14:19.640 --> 0:14:21.160
<v Speaker 3>That's what my parents had. My dad was in the

0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:23.680
<v Speaker 3>Air Force, and it brought us closer as a family too.

0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:27.320
<v Speaker 3>So I think eventually I'd always want to have like

0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:31.360
<v Speaker 3>a home base in Utah for which if that's my

0:14:31.600 --> 0:14:34.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, family's house or whatever, that we always are

0:14:34.120 --> 0:14:38.040
<v Speaker 3>coming and visiting. That's great. I love Utah. It's amazing.

0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:41.000
<v Speaker 3>I like and I have a good network of support here,

0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:43.040
<v Speaker 3>but I'm definitely open to moving.

0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Are you Are you in Grant on good terms now

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.600
<v Speaker 1>or is it just like kind of a relationship that's

0:14:49.680 --> 0:14:50.400
<v Speaker 1>non existent?

0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:53.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, where do you Standwich Grand Juliana today?

0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:59.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't have a relationship with Grant. I don't.

0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:03.200
<v Speaker 3>I think we kind of hashed it all out. I

0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:06.560
<v Speaker 3>don't think there's anything else to really chat about, but

0:15:07.120 --> 0:15:09.480
<v Speaker 3>like I don't have I'm I'm on good terms with him,

0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 3>Like I don't have any ill Will like I you know,

0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:16.760
<v Speaker 3>want him to be happy, wish him the best, and yeah,

0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:17.680
<v Speaker 3>same with Juliana.

0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:21.600
<v Speaker 2>Mhm. Has anything that they've said since the show ended

0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:22.240
<v Speaker 2>surprised you?

0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:29.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, of course, yeah yeah again. Yeah, but I

0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:33.920
<v Speaker 3>but that's fair, you know, on their part. And I

0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:40.440
<v Speaker 3>think I never said anything intentionally with like ill Will

0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:46.800
<v Speaker 3>towards either of them. I just was sharing my experience

0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:54.600
<v Speaker 3>and they're, you know, they can share their experience. I don't.

0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:57.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it has been surprising. I think just

0:15:58.000 --> 0:16:01.000
<v Speaker 3>mostly because it's only been publicly, like there was never

0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:03.880
<v Speaker 3>any attempt to kind of like clear the air privately.

0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:08.520
<v Speaker 3>But that was just like a good indicator, you know,

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:15.760
<v Speaker 3>to me what our friendship meant, you know, which is

0:16:15.800 --> 0:16:17.960
<v Speaker 3>totally fine.

0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think it's always like yeah, yeah, I don't know.

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.760
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that's something that people should do, is

0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:29.560
<v Speaker 1>like talk privately before air and everything out publicly. But

0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:31.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, everybody moves differently.

0:16:32.280 --> 0:16:35.400
<v Speaker 3>I think too, Like, you know, you can't control the

0:16:35.480 --> 0:16:37.480
<v Speaker 3>questions that you're asked, and I think a lot of

0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:40.920
<v Speaker 3>the surprising things came as a response to a question,

0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:44.120
<v Speaker 3>and I do want to give them a little bit

0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:46.960
<v Speaker 3>of grace because it's their first time navigating it, and

0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:50.080
<v Speaker 3>you know, you don't always know the effect or the

0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:52.480
<v Speaker 3>impact that your words will have in a group of

0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:55.240
<v Speaker 3>people until you know you're in the middle of it.

0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:59.720
<v Speaker 3>And so I definitely regret anything that I said or

0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:05.359
<v Speaker 3>did that fueled negativity towards anyone, because I think that's

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:08.400
<v Speaker 3>not that was never my intention, And it's hard. It's

0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:13.640
<v Speaker 3>a blurry line, I think now I'm learning this. It's

0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:17.360
<v Speaker 3>a blurry line between sharing your experience and then kind

0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:20.000
<v Speaker 3>of you have to filter it a little bit because

0:17:20.040 --> 0:17:23.360
<v Speaker 3>there are people who will take your words and use

0:17:23.400 --> 0:17:27.439
<v Speaker 3>it as fuel to like spread hate against someone.

0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:31.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, Yeah, that's That's that's a good point because

0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:33.600
<v Speaker 1>like even like thinking back to like when I got

0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:35.639
<v Speaker 1>off the show, and like you do these podcasts and

0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.800
<v Speaker 1>these interviews and you're so new to it and you're

0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 1>and you're also nervous. Like I remember going into so

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:44.399
<v Speaker 1>many interviews just being nervous and like almost like half

0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:48.600
<v Speaker 1>blacking out, where I could literally have said anything and

0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.320
<v Speaker 1>my intentions were never to hurt anyone, but it's just

0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:51.840
<v Speaker 1>like more.

0:17:51.840 --> 0:17:56.159
<v Speaker 4>Like something said with like snark or sarcasm, and like

0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:59.399
<v Speaker 4>that ends up getting taken out of context is always

0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:03.240
<v Speaker 4>possible to but speaking of you know, saying things that

0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:08.240
<v Speaker 4>end up blowing up, did you expect your breakup? I

0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:12.080
<v Speaker 4>mean your like tone switch and everything in the common now,

0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:14.000
<v Speaker 4>Like I have friends that like didn't even watch the

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:17.000
<v Speaker 4>season that are like out here like quoting you, and

0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:19.080
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, you don't watch the show, and they're like, yeah, no,

0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:20.280
<v Speaker 4>it's all over my TikTok.

0:18:20.359 --> 0:18:22.359
<v Speaker 2>It's like icoic that.

0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:24.920
<v Speaker 3>Is no, it's so bizarred. You know, I don't remember

0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:29.879
<v Speaker 3>saying it. Like I remember talking to producers after the

0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:33.439
<v Speaker 3>show after we had stopped filming. It was probably like

0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:36.720
<v Speaker 3>a month after filming, and they called me and were

0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:39.000
<v Speaker 3>just talking to it and like they had they were

0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:41.679
<v Speaker 3>obviously in the minutia of like editing the finale and

0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:44.280
<v Speaker 3>all of that, and they kept saying it to me,

0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.639
<v Speaker 3>and I was like, what are they talking about. They're like,

0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:48.520
<v Speaker 3>that's such a Latia thing that you could sing that,

0:18:48.640 --> 0:18:50.879
<v Speaker 3>and I'm like, I don't remember ever saying that, Like

0:18:50.920 --> 0:18:56.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't remember, but I think the as far as

0:18:56.720 --> 0:18:59.159
<v Speaker 3>the tone switch up, that was like something that I

0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:03.520
<v Speaker 3>did not expect, because anyone that knows me very well

0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:08.280
<v Speaker 3>was not surprised at all by my reaction. Like everyone

0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:12.680
<v Speaker 3>was like, yeah, that's how that was going to go, Like, yeah,

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:16.959
<v Speaker 3>if she is faced with, you know, that situation and

0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:21.479
<v Speaker 3>like those circumstances, like that's exactly how that was going

0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:24.520
<v Speaker 3>to go. No one was surprised then, knows me.

0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:26.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:19:26.320 --> 0:19:28.520
<v Speaker 4>I guess that just speaks to like, you know, we

0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:30.919
<v Speaker 4>watch reality TV and you really only get to see

0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:34.280
<v Speaker 4>such a small part of people because like, had that

0:19:34.320 --> 0:19:38.040
<v Speaker 4>breakup not happen, like no one would have access to

0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:40.960
<v Speaker 4>like seeing that side of you, and like totally you know,

0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:43.240
<v Speaker 4>it's just that reminder that like you're really only seeing

0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:46.800
<v Speaker 4>how people respond to the situations that they're put in,

0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:48.719
<v Speaker 4>and if they're not putting certain situations, you're not going

0:19:48.760 --> 0:19:49.600
<v Speaker 4>to see the sides of them.

0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:53.040
<v Speaker 3>You're only seeing like I mean, imagine you're on a

0:19:53.080 --> 0:19:57.199
<v Speaker 3>first date with someone like for a lot of this season,

0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:00.440
<v Speaker 3>that's about as much time as you have spent with him,

0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:02.200
<v Speaker 3>you know, and so you want to put your best

0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:04.320
<v Speaker 3>foot forward, but you also want to be intentional and

0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:06.119
<v Speaker 3>make the most of your time. And I think, like

0:20:08.200 --> 0:20:09.919
<v Speaker 3>I mean, to be honest, like at the beginning, it

0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:13.040
<v Speaker 3>really is just like rainbows and butterflies because you're so

0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:15.200
<v Speaker 3>like you said, like you black out a little bit

0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:17.400
<v Speaker 3>from like the cameras and the lights in the situation

0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:20.040
<v Speaker 3>and making them out like the you know, the pressure,

0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:24.040
<v Speaker 3>but and just getting to know that person and also

0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:26.680
<v Speaker 3>putting your best foot forward and worrying about being observed.

0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:28.760
<v Speaker 3>There's like all those things that go into it. And

0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:33.479
<v Speaker 3>so that's, yeah, that's a lot of it I think was.

0:20:34.400 --> 0:20:36.520
<v Speaker 3>And then of course I had feelings and so you know,

0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:39.919
<v Speaker 3>and I like I felt so much like compassion for

0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:42.440
<v Speaker 3>him and like the things that he opened up about,

0:20:42.480 --> 0:20:46.440
<v Speaker 3>and so it definitely brought out like a very soft,

0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:52.840
<v Speaker 3>like nurturing side of me because of like the nature

0:20:52.880 --> 0:20:54.479
<v Speaker 3>of the conversations that we were having.

0:20:55.280 --> 0:20:57.359
<v Speaker 2>Do you have any regrets from your time on the show?

0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Know that's good? Was was Paradise uh an easier or

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:11.720
<v Speaker 1>hard no for you? Because a lot of people, a

0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:13.639
<v Speaker 1>lot of people definitely wanted to see more of you

0:21:13.720 --> 0:21:17.080
<v Speaker 1>and wanted to wanted to see you, I'm assuming have

0:21:17.160 --> 0:21:20.360
<v Speaker 1>a successful love story. What was that decision?

0:21:20.440 --> 0:21:24.400
<v Speaker 3>Like, I want to see it too, I'm right there

0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:29.200
<v Speaker 3>with them, But I think given the timing of it,

0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:37.840
<v Speaker 3>I didn't know, honestly, Like the way that everything happened

0:21:38.400 --> 0:21:43.000
<v Speaker 3>after everything aired is really what was the most off

0:21:43.000 --> 0:21:46.000
<v Speaker 3>putting thing for me was like I can come into

0:21:46.040 --> 0:21:49.960
<v Speaker 3>this and have good intentions and I can do my

0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:52.480
<v Speaker 3>best and be vulnerable and open up and all the

0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:55.600
<v Speaker 3>rest of it, and I can, you know, get tricked.

0:21:56.160 --> 0:22:00.360
<v Speaker 3>And then the other part of it is I think

0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:02.560
<v Speaker 3>the most hurtful part for me about all of it

0:22:02.640 --> 0:22:10.280
<v Speaker 3>was the stuff that was said afterwards, and that was

0:22:10.400 --> 0:22:13.639
<v Speaker 3>very fresh in my mind when we were talking about Paradise,

0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:16.679
<v Speaker 3>and so I was just like, I'm still getting like,

0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 3>you know, hateful messages because of the things that have

0:22:20.680 --> 0:22:23.359
<v Speaker 3>been said, and so I just wasn't really like eager

0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:26.400
<v Speaker 3>or anxious to get back into and there were people

0:22:26.480 --> 0:22:28.919
<v Speaker 3>that got so much more than I did. And I

0:22:28.960 --> 0:22:31.600
<v Speaker 3>feel very blessed because I have felt very supported. But

0:22:31.720 --> 0:22:34.000
<v Speaker 3>I think just at that time, there was a spike

0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:37.080
<v Speaker 3>in like negative comments, and I was like, you know,

0:22:37.160 --> 0:22:38.840
<v Speaker 3>experiencing it for the first time, I was like, oh,

0:22:38.880 --> 0:22:41.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if I'm ready to, you know, sign

0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:43.600
<v Speaker 3>back up for this again. And I didn't know how

0:22:43.720 --> 0:22:46.879
<v Speaker 3>open I would be able to be, do you know

0:22:46.920 --> 0:22:47.360
<v Speaker 3>what I mean?

0:22:47.440 --> 0:22:49.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, totally, Yeah.

0:22:49.240 --> 0:22:51.919
<v Speaker 1>I think that's that's like, you know, and that's something

0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I've I had like a like you know, friends and relatives.

0:22:56.640 --> 0:22:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I'd be like, oh, I want to go on the show,

0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:00.480
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, well, there is a part of you

0:23:00.560 --> 0:23:04.960
<v Speaker 1>that has to be okay, like you are going to

0:23:05.080 --> 0:23:07.480
<v Speaker 1>like it doesn't make like you. So many people loved you.

0:23:07.520 --> 0:23:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I would say ninety eight percent of the people that

0:23:09.600 --> 0:23:11.520
<v Speaker 1>watch the show loved you. But there's that two percent

0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:14.760
<v Speaker 1>that you are going to get hate from and it's

0:23:14.760 --> 0:23:16.920
<v Speaker 1>going to be hard to read. Like it's it's tough.

0:23:17.520 --> 0:23:20.400
<v Speaker 1>Never really, I think everybody experiences something in their life

0:23:20.400 --> 0:23:24.000
<v Speaker 1>but like not really knowing, like never getting online hate

0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:26.399
<v Speaker 1>and then all of a sudden You're like, flood, what

0:23:26.400 --> 0:23:29.280
<v Speaker 1>did this person just say about me? Like what is

0:23:29.320 --> 0:23:32.600
<v Speaker 1>this really happening right now? So, yeah, it's it's it's tough,

0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:33.280
<v Speaker 1>so I get it.

0:23:33.320 --> 0:23:36.400
<v Speaker 4>For I feel like timing is everything, and I feel

0:23:36.400 --> 0:23:38.919
<v Speaker 4>like it's you know, Paradise is always so enticing and

0:23:38.960 --> 0:23:41.000
<v Speaker 4>tempting and it can be such an amazing time.

0:23:41.160 --> 0:23:44.760
<v Speaker 3>But I definitely have bomo, like I know the tea,

0:23:44.800 --> 0:23:46.720
<v Speaker 3>and I like want to I like I miss you know,

0:23:46.800 --> 0:23:50.240
<v Speaker 3>my friends and all that, but like that's not why

0:23:50.280 --> 0:23:52.280
<v Speaker 3>you go to Paradise, you know, to hang out with

0:23:52.320 --> 0:23:54.600
<v Speaker 3>your friends to know the tea. It's you know, you

0:23:54.680 --> 0:23:57.320
<v Speaker 3>need to be more intentional, and yeah, you'd.

0:23:57.160 --> 0:23:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Be surprised er I would say, that's why about seventy

0:23:59.720 --> 0:24:06.240
<v Speaker 1>five send the people down there are there.

0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:07.359
<v Speaker 3>And maybe they share It's like I don't want to

0:24:07.400 --> 0:24:10.040
<v Speaker 3>go through that either, like trying to figure out who's

0:24:10.080 --> 0:24:13.280
<v Speaker 3>here for to be on TV again and who's here

0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:16.680
<v Speaker 3>to meet me and all the rest of it.

0:24:16.720 --> 0:24:20.120
<v Speaker 4>And so are there any of your friends that you're

0:24:20.160 --> 0:24:23.919
<v Speaker 4>hoping like ooh I could see her with the sky

0:24:24.320 --> 0:24:27.440
<v Speaker 4>or any predictions.

0:24:28.480 --> 0:24:34.600
<v Speaker 3>I think it's hard because I just know online personas

0:24:34.640 --> 0:24:36.880
<v Speaker 3>of all the guys. Right, I've never met any of them,

0:24:37.440 --> 0:24:41.200
<v Speaker 3>but Andrew seems really funny and fun like a good

0:24:41.280 --> 0:24:44.720
<v Speaker 3>time and so not to like pit my friends against

0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:48.960
<v Speaker 3>each other, but Alex and Bailey specifically, I think would

0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:51.680
<v Speaker 3>both be like I would love to see their dynamic

0:24:51.720 --> 0:24:53.679
<v Speaker 3>with him because it'd be like funny and fun to

0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:56.760
<v Speaker 3>watch because they're both just like silly, goofy, and I

0:24:56.760 --> 0:24:58.760
<v Speaker 3>think that's what I've seen from him, So I'm like,

0:25:00.119 --> 0:25:00.639
<v Speaker 3>I hope that.

0:25:01.520 --> 0:25:06.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I actually we've heard Alex Alex's name thrown out,

0:25:06.040 --> 0:25:07.240
<v Speaker 4>but Bailey and Andrew.

0:25:07.320 --> 0:25:08.840
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a fun prediction.

0:25:09.240 --> 0:25:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you've made some friendships through people in Bachtoration, like

0:25:22.200 --> 0:25:25.040
<v Speaker 1>Katie who was on your season and Charity.

0:25:25.480 --> 0:25:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Well Katie who came down and you did my chat?

0:25:29.280 --> 0:25:32.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah did your chat. Have you been hanging out

0:25:32.920 --> 0:25:33.520
<v Speaker 1>with them lately?

0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:39.119
<v Speaker 3>I haven't lately. I talked to them pretty frequently, like

0:25:39.600 --> 0:25:46.240
<v Speaker 3>I talked to probably Katie and Charity the most, Very Mercedes,

0:25:46.560 --> 0:25:50.040
<v Speaker 3>all of them, Jess, Gabby, they're all great, Like we

0:25:50.119 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 3>have some group chats that pop up every once in

0:25:53.119 --> 0:25:59.960
<v Speaker 3>a while. But I Bachelor is good at casting soul

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:04.280
<v Speaker 3>of girls. I will say that, like all like pretty

0:26:04.320 --> 0:26:06.840
<v Speaker 3>much all of them that I've met I love and

0:26:07.760 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 3>want to be friends with genuinely. So I feel really lucky.

0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:15.320
<v Speaker 3>That's like such a huge win that I was not expecting.

0:26:16.119 --> 0:26:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, definitely have you. We saw you. You hung out

0:26:23.359 --> 0:26:25.720
<v Speaker 1>with Kendall Jenner at Coachella. How did that happen?

0:26:26.200 --> 0:26:29.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh my gosh, that was so random. I how did

0:26:29.960 --> 0:26:34.920
<v Speaker 3>that happen? She watches the show, She watches.

0:26:34.680 --> 0:26:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Bachelor Bachelor fans, all the Kardashians, and.

0:26:40.800 --> 0:26:46.040
<v Speaker 3>So we I got invited to like her brand did

0:26:46.080 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 3>a did a party at Coachella, and I got invited

0:26:48.240 --> 0:26:50.520
<v Speaker 3>and so did Alex and so we were like, oh

0:26:50.560 --> 0:26:52.400
<v Speaker 3>my gosh, like we're gonna go. This is so cool.

0:26:52.400 --> 0:26:57.879
<v Speaker 3>We got invited, you know. And then right yeah, and

0:26:57.920 --> 0:27:02.560
<v Speaker 3>then when we were like, I think we were just

0:27:02.600 --> 0:27:05.320
<v Speaker 3>like standing there and Kendall came up to us and

0:27:05.440 --> 0:27:08.000
<v Speaker 3>was like, oh my gosh. And that was the most

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:11.960
<v Speaker 3>surreal thing totally. I was like, why this is a dream.

0:27:12.080 --> 0:27:14.800
<v Speaker 3>This is like not, this is not real. But yeah,

0:27:14.840 --> 0:27:18.480
<v Speaker 3>she like, you know, had just watched the finale and

0:27:19.800 --> 0:27:22.320
<v Speaker 3>that was insane, and like Hayley was there and she

0:27:22.440 --> 0:27:25.479
<v Speaker 3>had watched and that was so surreal. But it was

0:27:25.560 --> 0:27:30.920
<v Speaker 3>also at the time when there was this spike in negativity.

0:27:30.960 --> 0:27:33.240
<v Speaker 3>It was like when everyone was doing podcasts, and so

0:27:34.240 --> 0:27:36.080
<v Speaker 3>I got to ask them about like I was like,

0:27:36.119 --> 0:27:38.320
<v Speaker 3>how do you guys deal with this? This is like insane?

0:27:38.720 --> 0:27:43.880
<v Speaker 3>And they gave me great advice and that was surreal,

0:27:44.000 --> 0:27:50.240
<v Speaker 3>and they are then like nicest, most normal people. I can't, like,

0:27:50.320 --> 0:27:53.400
<v Speaker 3>I can't fathom. It didn't feel real because they were

0:27:53.440 --> 0:27:55.080
<v Speaker 3>so normal, Like I felt like they were just like

0:27:55.080 --> 0:27:56.720
<v Speaker 3>a girl that I met, you know what I mean,

0:27:56.840 --> 0:28:01.399
<v Speaker 3>yeah they gave you or no, oh yeah, they just

0:28:01.520 --> 0:28:04.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's pretty. It's funny. They both said it separately,

0:28:04.040 --> 0:28:06.560
<v Speaker 3>like it was in different conversations, but they both said

0:28:06.680 --> 0:28:09.840
<v Speaker 3>don't look at it. But obviously we still see it,

0:28:10.160 --> 0:28:12.800
<v Speaker 3>but don't look at it. So it's just like.

0:28:12.680 --> 0:28:15.320
<v Speaker 4>It's usually our advice too, Yeah, just like just don't look,

0:28:15.400 --> 0:28:18.359
<v Speaker 4>don't go don't like you it's gonna cross your desk,

0:28:18.640 --> 0:28:20.840
<v Speaker 4>and like, but don't go searching it out because you

0:28:20.880 --> 0:28:22.720
<v Speaker 4>will always find something you don't want to see.

0:28:23.520 --> 0:28:25.800
<v Speaker 3>And I think another one is just like, as much

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:31.359
<v Speaker 3>as you can, don't engage with it, like because it

0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:33.960
<v Speaker 3>just kind of like fans the flames and like breathes

0:28:34.080 --> 0:28:38.840
<v Speaker 3>new life into it, and so obviously when it grows

0:28:38.920 --> 0:28:40.720
<v Speaker 3>legs of its own and it like there's a point

0:28:40.760 --> 0:28:42.560
<v Speaker 3>where it needs to be addressed. But I think like

0:28:42.640 --> 0:28:44.680
<v Speaker 3>as much as you can, don't look at it and

0:28:46.480 --> 0:28:47.840
<v Speaker 3>try not to engage with it.

0:28:49.040 --> 0:28:49.520
<v Speaker 1>Definitely.

0:28:49.640 --> 0:28:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's great advice.

0:28:51.520 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>So you're you're you're moved on living your life. You

0:28:55.360 --> 0:28:58.120
<v Speaker 1>don't go to paradise. You said you've been dating a

0:28:58.120 --> 0:28:59.520
<v Speaker 1>little bit. What has that been like.

0:29:01.400 --> 0:29:01.720
<v Speaker 3>A lot?

0:29:01.800 --> 0:29:06.760
<v Speaker 2>Like, you know, it's just any d ms, any hobbies

0:29:06.800 --> 0:29:07.400
<v Speaker 2>and the d ms.

0:29:11.920 --> 0:29:14.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, probably, yeah, some.

0:29:16.360 --> 0:29:17.480
<v Speaker 1>What does a DM look like?

0:29:18.800 --> 0:29:19.240
<v Speaker 2>What do you mean?

0:29:19.240 --> 0:29:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Like?

0:29:19.360 --> 0:29:20.200

<v Speaker 1>What's a guy? What?

0:29:21.760 --> 0:29:21.920
<v Speaker 3>What?

0:29:22.520 --> 0:29:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Why are you When are you engaging in that conversation?

0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:26.959
<v Speaker 3>When it's funny?

0:29:27.520 --> 0:29:30.600
<v Speaker 4>Okay, when it's clever, Yeah, like you can tell them

0:29:30.640 --> 0:29:31.920

<v Speaker 1>That can also come across a little stockersh.

0:30:05.000 --> 0:30:10.240
<v Speaker 4>But we just finished there's a line you know yeah,

0:30:10.280 --> 0:30:12.440

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:35.120
<v Speaker 4>reward it.

0:30:35.440 --> 0:30:37.240
<v Speaker 2>So that's my homework to not do that.

0:30:37.320 --> 0:30:40.080
<v Speaker 3>And by the way, like that only goes for men,

0:30:40.360 --> 0:30:45.240

<v Speaker 3>I'm going to Europe in August and September, so I

0:31:07.000 --> 0:31:11.880
<v Speaker 3>or yeah, I think that's probably when I'll end up going. Yeah,

0:31:11.880 --> 0:31:14.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't have it. I think you're gonna go to Croatia.

0:31:14.880 --> 0:31:15.959
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So exciting.

0:31:16.000 --> 0:31:18.440
<v Speaker 4>I always wanted to go there my sister and said

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:19.520
<v Speaker 4>it was like incredible.

0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:22.600
<v Speaker 2>That's what I think. I think it's fully shut down

0:31:22.640 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 2>in August, so keep that in mind.

0:31:25.440 --> 0:31:28.720
<v Speaker 1>What do you mean they like close, Well, it's like

0:31:28.840 --> 0:31:31.880
<v Speaker 1>that's all Europe, that's like season. I thought, yeah, no,

0:31:32.040 --> 0:31:35.920
<v Speaker 1>like Europe, Like it's definitely no. I think that's incorrect information.

0:31:36.160 --> 0:31:38.920
<v Speaker 3>I can see like I could see like October like

0:31:38.960 --> 0:31:43.280
<v Speaker 3>a shoulder season season. It's not like coastal for sure,

0:31:43.440 --> 0:31:44.280
<v Speaker 3>but it's.

0:31:44.280 --> 0:31:45.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that doesn't like why would they shut down? I

0:31:45.960 --> 0:31:47.120
<v Speaker 4>could be super wrong, and I hope I am.

0:31:47.880 --> 0:31:50.440
