1
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: It just runs in our family, like we have to

2
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: take care of ourselves more than other people, and we've learned,

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: I think throughout the years, to just embrace our body

4
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: and embrace who we are.

5
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 2: Mom would always wake us up super early, Let's go

6
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 2: for a walk. She would write in my journals like

7
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 2: this is what you should only eat. No bread, no carbs,

8
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 2: only egg white.

9
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,240
Speaker 1: There's been many times when I thought if I was

10
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: this size in the English market, I would be celebrated.

11
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and happy Monday. I hope you're all having

12
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: a great week so far. My week has been a

13
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,919
Speaker 1: little crazy with work, but I can't complain. Gotta say

14
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: I've been traveling and finishing up some projects and I

15
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: can't wait to share some of them with you very

16
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,639
Speaker 1: very soon. Today's episode is going to be a lot

17

00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: I saying.

19
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 3: Hello, We're going to be talking about something women think

20
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 3: about a lot. At least.

21
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: I have our bodies that includes our shape, our weight,

22
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: and what we're expected to look like. But we're not

23
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 1: gonna stop there. We're going to talk about accepting and

24
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: embracing our bodies. So let's get into it. This is

25
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: Cheeky's and chill. For those of you who don't know

26
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: who Jennka is, she's my younger sister. She is an

27
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: entrepreneur and so much more. She actually just launched an

28
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,839
Speaker 1: athletic apparel brand called over Comfort, which I freaking love.

29
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: The material, you guys, is a bomb, okay, And I

30
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: know about We're cut clothes because I live in it.

31
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: So she really got it down with the fabric and

32
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: not only that, but the mission behind it I absolutely love.

33
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 3: So you guys have to check it out.

34
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: So, as a woman, and especially a woman in the

35
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: entertainment industry, weight is something I think about all the time.

36
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: Now I'm in a place where I love my body

37
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: most of the time, there are still days where I

38
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: feel a little insecure, and I think it's more of

39
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: the outside noise that causes that. But there was a

40
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: time where I really was just not happy at all

41
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 1: with my body.

42
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 3: I don't know.

43
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I've gotten surgeries. I believe in plastic surgeries,

44
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: guys like I'm a huge, Like it's your body, do

45
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: what you want. I've got lipol section, I've gotten breast

46
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: augmentations and then reductions and then again, like it's been

47
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: a struggle, and I think it has to do with

48
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: the way that we were raised. My mom was very

49
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 1: and I don't blame her and I don't judge her

50
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: for it because I know my grandpa was really hard

51
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: on her and her sister about their weight. So my

52
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: mom and our household weight was always a conversation, like

53
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: it was just since I can remember, you guys, and

54
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: there was a time where I'm like, I look at

55
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: pictures now and I'm like, Damn, I looked good. I

56
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: was thinner, you know, I look good and I didn't

57
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: think I was then. And it's crazy because my sister

58
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: Jackie just posted on that the other day, like on

59
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 1: her feed. We've all I think shared that, especially now

60
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: that we're in the industry and you're expected quote unquote

61
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: to look a certain way. I'm like, why didn't I

62
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 1: appreciate my body then? I was freaking thirty pounds lighter

63
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: and I still thought that I was big. But it's

64
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: because of the stigma and the way that, again, we

65
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: were raised and things that I think my sisters and

66
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: I are trying to work through. And this is something

67
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: my sister Jenica, which is here, she's here, like I'm

68
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:28,920
Speaker 1: excited I'm gonna be.

69
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 3: Able to speak to her. So Jenica, welcome to the podcast.

70
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 3: Let's talk about this.

71
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: No, I definitely agree that it was the way we raise.

72
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: I always talk about it like with like my friends

73
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 2: or my trainer whatever, They're like, how are you so disciplined?

74
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: Like I'm like, I've literally been like this my whole life.

75
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 2: Mom would always like she'd wake us up super early,

76
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 2: let's go for a walk. She would write in my

77
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: journals like this is what you should only eat. No breads,

78
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 2: no carbs, like only egg whites, grapefruit. Yeah, it was

79
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 2: really really hard. Like for me, it was okay, like

80
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 2: I have to listen my mom. And then as I

81
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 2: got older and then mom passed away, like it's like

82
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,839
Speaker 2: we had the reality show and then we were consistently

83
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 2: in the spotlight. So it's like something it mattered to me,

84
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 2: like it was at that time. Yeah, I could say

85
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 2: it was more about like what people thought of me

86
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 2: or whatever. But then it got to a point just

87
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 2: like I just want to feel good. Like I got

88
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 2: so tired, like I remember like crying with you, like

89
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: in dressing rooms, like I'm so tired of trying on clothes,

90
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 2: Like I hate shopping like I hate it, and then

91
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 2: now just kind of like now, thank God, like brands

92
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 2: are more inclusive of like plus size and like okay,

93
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: like this is the plus size community and this is

94
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 2: what it is. And it's like I'd rather just own

95
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 2: it and feel comfortable where I'm at because I feel

96
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 2: good where I'm at. I know I could do more,

97
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: but like I'm like happy with where I'm at, Like

98
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 2: it goes to support at least for me, where it's

99
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 2: like all these people were talking so much mess about

100
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 2: all of us, and it's just like they're always going

101
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: to say something so like why I even care about it?

102
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: But do you know though, that you have a lot

103
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: to do with it. You have a lot to do

104
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: with the fact that now brands are more accepting of

105
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: curvy women that we you know, women like us that

106
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: have to go out there and it's it's hard. I

107
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: think a lot of people look at us like wow,

108
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: Like we get a lot of messages, at least I do.

109
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: And I don't know about you, Jenica, but like messages

110
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: of you really inspire me, like thank you, like for

111
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: embracing your body. Now I'm embracing mine, but I still

112
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: have tough days, you guys, And I think it's sadly

113
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: what is out there on Instagram and what you're supposed

114
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: to look like and this whole facade, because there's a

115
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: lot of people that weren't born that way. And again

116
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: I'm all about plastic surgery, do your thing, but it's

117
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: like this kind of unrealistic expectation of how you should look.

118
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: And for a long time, you guys, I knew I

119
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: was always thicker. I was always a thick girl in

120
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: class and all my friends were like when I was

121
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: a size nine I think growing up or an eight.

122
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: My friend was of course a four. So I was

123
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: always that thick girl. But I always felt pretty good.

124
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: It wasn't really until I started it started like getting

125
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 1: into my head like really really bad. Was when I

126
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: got and stepped into this industry and so many people

127
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 1: have an opinion and it's like, oh my god, you

128
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: come out on TV. You should not be that fat.

129
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: And it's like I started looking at myself different in

130
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: the mirror. And that's where like therapy kicked in a

131
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: little bit more, and really words of affirmation and speaking,

132
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: it's really how we speak to ourselves in the mirror.

133
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: You guys, that makes a huge freaking difference. And I says,

134
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: we spoke about this with Liz Hernandez on one of

135
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: the episodes, and it's the power of words and it

136
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: starts with us. And yes, I've been tea since I

137
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: was little. And I don't blame mom, to be honest,

138
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: Like sometimes I would get upset. I'm like, dude, this

139
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: is the reason that I am the way that I

140
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: am is because Mom was so tough on us. It's

141
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 1: like she would grab my arms like, okay, if you

142
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 1: eat that, it's going through it to your arms.

143
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 3: Look at those tis they're growing.

144
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 2: And la voice is always in my head, Like every

145
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 2: time I don't want to go to the gym, I'm

146
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 2: like all I can remember is like, oh, but you

147
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 2: sweat so easily, you should just do it.

148
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 4: Oh.

149
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 2: This is like Mom would always be like, I'm so

150
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 2: jealous that you get to sweat so fast, princess, keep going,

151
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 2: keep going. I'm like okay, And I don't even think

152
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 2: people know this, but like it's like caused a lot

153
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 2: of trauma, like at least for me, Like mom, Like

154
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 2: I love obviously I love my mom, but like she

155
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: made me get surgery when I was fifteen, like the

156
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 2: gasterriisk and like all that stuff. So it goes Handa

157
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: and Hannah. It's like, okay, like I'm doing this literally

158
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 2: for my mom, and then now that she's not here,

159
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: it's like, okay, it's either I have to do it

160
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 2: for myself, like I have to feel good. And at

161
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 2: the end of the day, she always had the best intentions.

162
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 2: She always wanted us to feel good and look good

163
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 2: and she loved us.

164
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, because she had suffered so much as.

165
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: Well, which I understand her now exactly.

166
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: Now I can say now, I'm like, growing up, it

167
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: was so hard, and I just like even there were

168
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: times I'm like, oh, my goodness as an adult and

169
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: I'd be like, why was.

170
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 3: She like this with us?

171
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: And now I can sit back and I'm like, I

172
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: get it, Like she didn't want us to suffer what

173
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: she had suffered through, and she wanted us to feel good,

174
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: even versus Jackie. She sent her to fat Camp, and

175
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: Jackie talks about that all the time, so it was

176
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: something that was always on her mind. But because I

177
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: think she didn't want us to suffer in this world

178
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,679
Speaker 1: that can be very critical, and I thank her now

179
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: because I think because of her as well, like I

180
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: can withstand so much shit that is thrown at me.

181
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: So I thank her for sure, But I'm not gonna lie.

182
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: And that's why I think it's important. Now we're talking

183
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: about this guy. So if women or parents out there

184
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: that are listening to this podcast, the way you speak

185
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 1: to your children is very important because it really takes

186
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: a huge part in what they think of themselves and

187
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: how they feel about themselves. You know what I mean,

188
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,719
Speaker 1: because it's it's it starts even in the womb, how

189
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,839
Speaker 1: you speak to your baby when when they're in your

190
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: tummy and speaking words of affirmation and speaking words of

191
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: life into them. And I'm not saying that my mom didn't.

192
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: She didn't know any better. Again, she didn't know any better.

193
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: She didn't think that it was going to affect us

194
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: in this way.

195
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 2: Even then, like at the end, like she would always,

196
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 2: she's still had courage and she was still happy about it,

197
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: like she would sing in her songs or whatever. And

198
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 2: I think ultimately she just wanted us to be healthy,

199
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 2: start now before it gets harder later, because it was

200
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 2: harder for her at her age to lose the weight

201
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 2: than it is for now at my age.

202
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what should always say. In our household,

203
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: it was we never had whole milk, it was non

204
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: fat milk, egg whites, like Jennka said, we were not

205
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: allowed to eat the yolk. So it's just a lot

206
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: of little things like that. But I also I thank

207
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: her because I think that it's it's the back of

208
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: my mind working out and being healthy and you know

209
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: what I mean, like because it just runs in our family.

210
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: It's just that's what it is. Like we have to

211
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: take care of ourselves more than other people. And we've learned,

212
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: I think, throughout the years to just embrace our body

213
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: and embrace who we are. And I love to see you, Jenica,

214
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: because I know how much you suffered with your weight

215
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: from like I don't know, I think it held were

216
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: you when you started like really realizing.

217
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 2: Probably like well, Mom sent me to camp, like when

218
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 2: I was eleven.

219
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 3: Or twelve, No you went to fuck up? No you didn't,

220
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 3: Yeah I did.

221
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 2: And then you and your boyfriend want to me up

222
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 2: because I didn't want to be there, and you got

223
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 2: mad at me because I didn't stay longer.

224
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: Really should I thought it was just Jenica, I mean Jenica, Jackie.

225
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: It was in San diego oh mg, yeah, okay, well

226
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: yeah I went.

227
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 2: And then yeah, but now it's like becoming like I

228
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,960
Speaker 2: wish I would have done it then because the now,

229
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 2: I mean, who knows. But now I'm kind of just

230
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 2: like I never really thought i'd be that person to

231
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 2: like really see the gym as an outlet. But it's

232
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 2: so relieving. I feel so good after. And it's such

233
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 2: a good point that there's this quote that says, you

234
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 2: never regret a workout, and you never do.

235
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 3: You feel so good.

236
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: It's gotten to the point for me where it's not

237
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: just about losing weight to work out.

238
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 3: It's for my mental health for sure.

239
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: Like I feel more empowered, I feel like I have

240
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: more energy, I feel like.

241
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 2: I accomplished so many things that day once I work out,

242
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 2: for sure, Right, if I work out, I'm good for

243
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 2: the rest of the day, Like I feel like I

244
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: did what I needed to do.

245
00:10:58,760 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

246
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: So a little bit about camp, now that we got

247
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: there and I had forgot, how was what was camp?

248
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 2: Like?

249
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 4: Oh?

250
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 3: That was horrible?

251
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was not traumatizing. But I remember being in

252
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: like the dorm rooms and like they would give you

253
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 2: one little pack of gummy bears, those little snack packs

254
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 2: for kids, and the girls would save them. They would

255
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 2: put them in their drawers and save them because apparently

256
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 2: you would only get so many here, and then so

257
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 2: they would eat them in the middle of the night.

258
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 2: Once Kurfey was up, you couldn't eat anymore, so all

259
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 2: these girls would put them away and then they would

260
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 2: eat them. And then like running around the track, and

261
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 2: I was just like, oh no, like I need to

262
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 2: go home, like I just can't, Like I can't, I

263
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 2: can't be here and I don't. I'm not a very

264
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 2: social person like, and being around people just gives me

265
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 2: a lot of anxiety. So I just like in that

266
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 2: in that little space and bubble, I just felt like,

267
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 2: oh no, I need to go home. I need to

268
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 2: just I'll figure it out. I'll tell my mom, like

269
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 2: I'll go work out, Like I just can't be here.

270
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 2: I can't do this.

271
00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 3: How long were you there for?

272
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,959
Speaker 2: I was there like three days. I was supposed to

273
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 2: be there for like two three weeks.

274
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, Jenna, I'm so sorry. I was just

275
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 3: listening to a mom. But but.

276
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 1: Anyways, okay, So Jenica, like I said earlier, she was

277
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: very very like a very shy introvert type of girl.

278
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: Now I love to see her blossom like she really

279
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,719
Speaker 1: like I see her on her posts and.

280
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 3: I'm just like, dude, Jennica's hot as fuck, Like she.

281
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: Is beautiful, She's got going on, Like I was telling

282
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: her the other day, I'm like, dude, this girl is

283
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: working out every single day. Like I've seen the transformation

284
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: and how much she has lost on her own. And

285
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: I want to tell you, Jenica that I'm very proud

286
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: of you. I know that it probably hasn't been an

287
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 1: easy process, right, Yeah, No, I.

288
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 2: Think you're you know, yes, because like, yeah, the first

289
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 2: person I tell them just like dude, I'm so over

290
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 2: this crap. I'm so over not seeing the difference. I'm

291
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 2: so over and not really feeling good because people are

292
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 2: still telling me all these things like I could be

293
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 2: as confident as I want to be, and like little

294
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: comments like really get to me.

295
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 3: So like I'm remother the controls.

296
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, like I have people like and comment back for

297
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 2: me because if not, like it'll mess up my day

298
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 2: or like I just don't want to deal with it

299
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 2: because I feel so good and confident and I work

300
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 2: so hard to get to where I'm at now I

301
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 2: don't need it, and those people generally don't really matter.

302
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 1: Are those comments though, that you receive, are they mostly

303
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,320
Speaker 1: about your body?

304
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, They're mainly about my body, or like, oh, you

305
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 2: have all this money, why don't you just get surgery?

306
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 2: Oh my god. A lot of them are very encouraging,

307
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 2: like when I post my workout videos, like I literally pray.

308
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 2: I'm like, you know what, like I just hope that

309
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 2: it inspires someone, and I get comments like oh, good job,

310
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 2: good job, good job, which is good ultimately, thank god. Yeah,

311
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 2: but for me, it's like I've learned to like keep

312
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 2: social media away so that doesn't affect my mind because

313
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 2: I I think that's what's the most hurtful. And then

314
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 2: I just get compared to you in Jackie a lot.

315
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 2: So I'm just like, really, yeah, I do what do

316
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 2: you mean, like how you guys are skinny, or like

317
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 2: oh my god, like you don't even look like them,

318
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 2: or this isn't that.

319
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 3: So I'm just like, you know what I swear. I know,

320
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 3: I'm telling you.

321
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: People on social media can be so mean, but I've

322
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 1: learned that it's like those people aren't busy enough, those

323
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: people aren't successful enough. Those people aren't even happy with themselves,

324
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: because if they were, they wouldn't be there trying to

325
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: hurt someone's feelings. Trying like busy people that are successful

326
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: and happy don't have time to sit there and talk

327
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: shit on social media. Like that is so lame and

328
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: whack to me, guys, if you are one of those

329
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: people listening to my podcast, I want you guys to know,

330
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: if you sit there and criticize people on social media

331
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 1: behind a fucking telephone, you are whack as fuck.

332
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: I'm sorry.

333
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: I just need to tell you it is so fucking

334
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,040
Speaker 1: unattractive that I'd rather someone come to my face and

335
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: tell me, you know what I think this so I

336
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: can tell you something back. But it sucks because there

337
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: are people that love us on social media.

338
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 2: No, and like we meet the people in person and

339
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 2: they're so sweet, like like everybody in person is so

340
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 2: much more nicer, Like they'll come up, oh, you're so pretty,

341
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 2: like you've really inspired me to go to the gym,

342
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 2: and like to me like I don't know why, but

343
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 2: I'm just like, oh my god, thank you. Like they'll

344
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 2: tell me thank you, and I'm like, no, thank you,

345
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 2: Like that really helped me today that I'm really happy,

346
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 2: like keep going or whatever. So those things are like

347
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 2: important to me and like where I feel like, Okay,

348
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: it's worth it.

349
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: Exactly, it's worth it, and that's what we have to

350
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: focus on. And I think you have more positive comments

351
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: and negative ones, right, I'm sure, yeah, yeah, And I

352
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: think we've learned to just accept that being in this

353
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: there's always gonna be that ten percent that they're going

354
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: to have an opinion and it's probably a negative one

355
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: and they're not gonna like you no matter what you do. Before,

356
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: I would love going on social media after posting something

357
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: and then replying to people because I just I love

358
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: having that direct contact. But then I had to stop

359
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: doing that because you come across some negative comments and

360
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 1: it sucks because I felt like I was intending to

361
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: the people that love me and that I love as much,

362
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: but because I was also protecting my heart in my

363
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: mind and saying I don't want to see negative comments

364
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: because I'm not in the right place emotionally, because sometimes

365
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: those comments are are harsh, like it's like binch, like

366
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 1: you do wanna diet, like they're fucked up, And when

367
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: you're around pmssing, when you're pmssing, like it, it can

368
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: really get to you. But I've learned to just like know, Okay,

369
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: I'm not the first, I'm not the last. I know

370
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: this is a part of it. And it's like really

371
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: giving yourself therapy every single day, and like Jenica said,

372
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: focusing on those people that really get it and that

373
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: we're inspiring and that keep us motivated and keep us going.

374
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: And this is why it's so good you guys to

375
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: take pictures of your progress. If you don't want to

376
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: weigh yourself, I get it. But if you take pictures,

377
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: like Jenica just showed me the other day, She's like,

378
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: do you see a difference, And I swear to you,

379
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm so freaking proud. She wakes up,

380
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: she goes to the gym for an hour, She works hard.

381
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: She's super disciplined. That's something that my mom, like, she

382
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: taught us to be very disciplined to finish what we start.

383
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 1: And I thank her for that. Jenica, like, I give you,

384
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: like honestly, a round of applause, girl, Like you have.

385
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 3: Been killing it in the gym. Girl, you look good.

386
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: I don't know how much you've lost, but how much

387
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 3: have you lost?

388
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 2: I don't oigh myself.

389
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: Okay, see, yeah, but I'm glad you took those pictures

390
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 1: because I'm sure you could tell I do.

391
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't oig myself because like literally, like

392
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 2: how you say, like the number on the scale really

393
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. It just doesn't because I could weigh the same,

394
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 2: but I have more muscle instead of fat. The weight's

395
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 2: not gonna measure my inches. So it's just like there's

396
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 2: no point.

397
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:36,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, how to do that.

398
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 2: My therapist told me to do that. They're like, there's

399
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,679
Speaker 2: throw it away, like you don't need it.

400
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: And it made you feel better. Yeah, some people believe

401
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: in like weighing yourself. I don't like you know what

402
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: I mean, It's not my thing, but pictures are a

403
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: good thing to have.

404
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:49,120
Speaker 3: Guys.

405
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: Well, actually, Jenna, I have a question for you. Do

406
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: you think that Latina's face added pressure to look sexy

407
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: small ways, big breast and butt?

408
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 3: Like do you feel that.

409
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 2: I feel like it's kind of generalized. I don't feel

410
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 2: like it's just for Latinas. Maybe more because Latinas have

411
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 2: natural curves, they're thicker. We're thicker in that sense. Yeah,

412
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 2: but I think everybody always has that pressure because it's

413
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: what what kim Ka has. She has thick thighes, big

414
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 2: ass and like a small waist. That's the ideal body

415
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 2: everybody wants to have because she is like the social

416
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 2: media idol.

417
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you know, it's a molded yeah body and

418
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 1: I'm all for it, girl that you look great, you know.

419
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: But us Latinas you know, we have those and it's

420
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 1: crazy because it's like you have this big button, these

421
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: big guys and it's just and then we we don't

422
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: want it, like some people are like, well, you people

423
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: want that, Like there are people that would die for

424
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: that body type, and I get it, you know, but

425
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: I do feel like.

426
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: It's harder for us. But it's also what we eat,

427
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 2: like yeah, what we were raised with too, like all

428
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 2: we were givings and beads and.

429
00:18:58,200 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 3: All those stuff.

430
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 2: It's just a car exactly. So it's like it's harder

431
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 2: for us to lose the weight and to get that

432
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 2: body because we eat all this stuff, which I'm not

433
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 2: mad about. I'm happy with the freaking culture that I have,

434
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 2: Like I know, I'm so happy. I feel like we

435
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 2: have the best food and like I don't know, yeah.

436
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: I absolutely I agree, you know, to answer that question,

437
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 1: I asked you. I do feel like they make it

438
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 1: a little harder. I feel like you know that they

439
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: want you to be you know, Mari bed guarda who

440
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: has a crazy, freaking amazing body, and it's just that

441
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 1: that's what you should look like if you're on television,

442
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: which I feel like.

443
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 2: Mom made the difference for people though.

444
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, like she did honestly break barriers in that,

445
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 1: and like, thank goodness, because even in.

446
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 2: Her songs she's like, I don't have j Loo's body,

447
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 2: I don't have murkas or whatever.

448
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 3: It's like, uh huh that Malivina.

449
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, for those of you that don't know that song,

450
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 1: I'm sure you have if you haven't heard it, it's

451
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: my mom's song. It's called that Malivina. It's a really

452
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: good song. It's in Spanish.

453
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 3: Listen to it.

454
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 1: It's really like a feel good like I'm cute no

455
00:19:58,119 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: matter what type of song.

456
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,719
Speaker 2: No even you though, like you like in your music videos,

457
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 2: like I thought it was so cool, like now you're

458
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,919
Speaker 2: showing your legs and everybody needs to know that you

459
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 2: would not and nobody notices these things. But chickens would

460
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 2: never show her arms or her legs or nothing. And

461
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 2: so like the last music video Kualkeera, Oh my god,

462
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 2: she just did everything like yeah, its so good, like

463
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 2: and I just feel like it's just making a difference

464
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: for everybody.

465
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 3: Thank you, Jenny. Yeah, it was a thing for me.

466
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 1: I don't wear shorts, and in that music video, in

467
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: a music video where with cameras you look bigger, I said,

468
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: f it, I'm gonna do it. This is what I

469
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,080
Speaker 1: want to do. This is what I envision. And if

470
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 1: there are people that don't like it, well whatever, I

471
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: love it even.

472
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 4: On vacation, Like it's so funny, even when we're a vacation,

473
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 4: like she won't wear a babe, she'll wear bathing soup,

474
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:54,479
Speaker 4: but she'll wore like the longest cover up or like

475
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 4: her rope or biker shorts or whatever.

476
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 2: And it's like even then biker shorts are stretched. So

477
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 2: but you got you've got better and you look good.

478
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: But see when I went to to Loom last year,

479
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: right and I wore two peas and I was just

480
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,479
Speaker 1: living my best life on the beach and they freaking

481
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 1: got me in that freaking red bikini.

482
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 3: But like the crazy thing is they get you in

483
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 3: the worst.

484
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: It's just like moving and They're like, they get you

485
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: in the worst pictures and I'm like, it's more Zoomed's horrible,

486
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: it's zoomed in.

487
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 3: I was like, why why is our media like that?

488
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 1: Like, dude, my mind be like tough skin, because if

489
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: you let them, they will eat you out.

490
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 3: Let me tell you, Jennka, how often do you work out.

491
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 2: Five to six times a week four to six, four

492
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: to six depending.

493
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 3: And how are you eating?

494
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 2: So before I used to do keto, which helped, but

495
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 2: it's not ideal for me the way I like to eat,

496
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 2: So I kind of stopped and I leaned more into

497
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 2: like clean eating and if I want something, I eat

498
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 2: it in moderation. So I have a very very high

499
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 2: protein dietzel nice.

500
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, see Keto. I like, I'm trying to lay off

501
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: the cheese. You know, it's like too much cheese. But honestly,

502
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 1: I think guys, it's very important to know what works

503
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: for your body. Like literally everybody is different. Okay, listen

504
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: to that again. Everybody not just everybody. Everybody is different,

505
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: so you have to know what works for you. Another

506
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 1: thing that works for me is intermittent fasting. That has

507
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: helped me so much. I eat from twelve to eight pm,

508
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,360
Speaker 1: and I fast for sixteen hours and that really helps

509
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: with my metabolism, with my mental clarity. And like, if

510
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: you guys haven't heard about it, go like research it.

511
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: I really love it. And I work out I don't

512
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 1: know anywhere. I try to do five times a week,

513
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: five times a week, if not at least three. And

514
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 1: I like to do a lot of cardio. I haven't

515
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: been doing a lot of weeks lately because I don't

516
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 1: have a lot of room here and my trainer and

517
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: I haven't been working out, But cardio helps me so much. So, Jenica,

518
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: let's talk about music a little bit. So what songs

519
00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,959
Speaker 1: do you listen to that make you feel like a

520
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: especially like when you're working out, Like, what do you

521
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: like to listen to Bad Bunny? Yeah, she's in love

522
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 1: with Bad Bunny, you guys. She wants to sit on

523
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 1: his face.

524
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 2: No, she just like his No. His songs are so

525
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,720

527
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,679
Speaker 2: really get into it. Even if it's like regat, like

00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 2: fucking with your life, so like.

531
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:27,360
Speaker 4: Just do it.

532
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 1: I love it, Yeah, because for me, and music is

533
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: a huge part of my life. Like I feel like

534
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 1: I could be sad and I put on a song

535
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: and it just reminds me of like hell, hell yeah,

536
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: I know who I am.

537
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 3: I know what I could do. Like you know what

538
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 3: I mean. Do you feel like your weight or the

539
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 3: issues that you had with your weight, like, have.

540
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: They played a huge part in maybe your like depression

541
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 1: and anxiety? Like can we talk about that a little bit?

542
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, it definitely has. Like if I'm not happy

543
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 2: with my weight, I'm just not happy in general, which

544
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 2: I think is super important. Why because well, at that time,

545
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 2: like when I was in a really really pressed I'm

546
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,679
Speaker 2: really anxious, like I wasn't seeing results. I've struggled with

547
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,880
Speaker 2: it my whole life. I should have listened to my

548
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 2: mom before. Like all that stuff runs through my head

549
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 2: and it's just difficult. It's like, dude, like if I

550
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 2: don't see a difference than what am I doing, Like

551
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,959
Speaker 2: why am I like starving myself? Or why am I

552
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 2: working out so hard? Or you know, and it just

553
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,679
Speaker 2: put me in a really dark place. Where I'm just

554
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 2: like I've kind of started letting go and I kind

555
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: of like, you know what, like whether I see a

556
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 2: difference or not, I'm getting healthier, I'm stronger, I'm stronger mentally,

557
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 2: Like my working out has definitely it's an outlet for me.

558
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: If I don't go, like I just feel like, okay,

559
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 2: I don't know, like I'm stricter on myself that day,

560
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 2: which isn't healthy. So I've learned to just like balance

561
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 2: myself out and I'm still learning like the balance between

562
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 2: eating the cheap mal and like not feeling guilty for

563
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 2: it or not working out and doing something else. So

564
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 2: it's definitely been an outlet for me, and it's helped

565
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 2: me mentally a lot. And I think everybody has noticed

566
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 2: that as well. Like for me, it's a part already,

567
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 2: Like if I don't work out during the week and

568
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 2: I don't have therapy, it's not gonna be a good week.

569
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 1: So you've come to the conclusion of working out is

570
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: part of my mental health and it's just a part

571
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 1: of my life for the rest of my life. Yeah,

572
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: and therapy as well, right to help with everything. Yeah, Yeah,

573
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: And I think that that's also the good that you're

574
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 1: talking about because you're so young. You're twenty four, right, Jenica.

575
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: She's gonna be twenty five this year, so she's twenty four,

576
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 1: And the fact that she is doing this at such

577
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 1: a young age, I hope that she can be in

578
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 1: of inspiration to all of you that are listening that

579
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: either you're younger or older than her or her same age.

580
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: It's part of just knowing what works for you and therapy.

581
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 1: You guys, I can't say it enough. I always talk

582
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: about it, but therapy so important, especially in the world

583
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: that we live in today with social media and all

584
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: these standards and like, it's just it's very, very important

585
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: and I would highly recommend it. And I think that

586
00:25:53,520 --> 00:26:02,479
Speaker 1: that's great that you're still doing your therapy, Jenny. As

587
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: far as like relationship, because you haven't been in a

588
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,719
Speaker 1: relationship for a long time. Has that been by choice?

589
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: Do you feel like you want to be in a

590
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: good place mentally and emotionally or you just haven't found

591
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 1: the right person? Like, what do you think has played

592
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: a role in that that you've you've been single for

593
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 1: what like two years now?

594
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 2: Basically, Yeah, but fun I've had, but it's like I've

595
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 2: made the choice of being single because I feel like

596
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 2: I don't have time to waste anymore. And I'm not

597
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 2: saying like the next person I meet I need to marry. No,

598
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 2: I feel like I have high expectations, like I think

599
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 2: I'm pretty cool and like I'm pretty disciplined, and I

600
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 2: know what I want in my life. So it's like

601
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 2: you have to kind of be on the same level

602
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 2: as me, and if not more, because I don't have

603
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,360
Speaker 2: time to teach you how to do all of this

604
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,719
Speaker 2: or teach you how to like take care of someone

605
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 2: like I don't have that time, and and part of

606
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 2: it could be my body because I have these two

607
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 2: guy friends that go to the gym, and all they

608
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 2: talk about are the girls at the gym and like

609
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 2: how they're skinny and how they have a fat ass.

610
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,959
Speaker 2: And I'm like, is that really all that matters to you?

611
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 2: Like I'm being like, I'm being serious, Like do you

612
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 2: guys just go to the gym because for them it

613
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 2: boost is their ego, like it boosts them to work

614
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 2: out harder at the gym. I'm like, are you guy serious?

615
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 2: Parts of that when I hear it from my friends,

616
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's not cool. But it doesn't matter to me, Like,

617
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 2: I know, the next person I meet isn't gonna worry

618
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 2: about my body or is it gonna worry about what

619
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 2: I eat or whatever. Like, So now that I see

620
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 2: guys like it does put a hold on what I

621
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 2: I have to trade my brain. I'm like, Okay, not

622
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 2: all guys are gonna be like these guy friends. And

623
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 2: I've told them, I'm like, you guys are like kind

624
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 2: of dicks for like doing that. And I've heard personal

625
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 2: conversations that they've had about girls. I'm like, and I've

626
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 2: told them, and I call them out on it. I'm like,

627
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 2: you guys shouldn't talk about girls like that. Don't be

628
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 2: a jerk, Like every girl's beautiful, Like you don't know

629
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 2: what they're struggling with, what if they can't or oh,

630
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 2: this girl has such a flat ass. I'm like, well,

631
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 2: what if she can't get a fucking ass? It shouldn't matter.

632
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 2: So I mean, ultimately, like, if I'm not in a relationship,

633
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,719
Speaker 2: it's because I'm choosing not to be and and I'm

634
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 2: choosing to wait and be smart with my decisions because

635
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 2: I generally don't have any more time to waste, And

636
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 2: like if you're not gonna like me for me, then

637
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 2: don't come out here, like don't don't do it.

638
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: You guys around of applause. Standing ovation for Jenica because

639
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 1: it's admirable that you're so young, and I think it

640
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: has to do with you are the youngest sister and

641
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: she has seen the mistakes that Jackie and I have made.

642
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: I'm so freaking proud of her. I'm so proud of you, Jenica,

643
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: because you're so smart, so independent, and it's just like, dude,

644
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: like sometimes I swear to you. I call Jenica, Jenna's

645
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: my best friend, and I call her and I'm like,

646
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 1: this is what's going on, And the advice that she

647
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: gives me is fucking crazy. Like the thing is is

648
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: like I can give someone a lot of really good advice,

649
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: like I'm good, Like I feel like I can stand

650
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: outside the situation and give you some bomb ass advice.

651
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: But when you're in it, it's hard for you to

652
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: see things, you know. So I call Jenica and I'm like,

653
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: and Jenica straight up and she's going to tell you

654
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: how it is and look at her like, I just

655
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: I love the fact that she is choosing herself right now.

656
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: She is taking that space because she was in a

657
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: in a long term relationship. And I think she's done

658
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: well with saying I'm going to take this time and

659
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: space to take care of myself, to take care of

660
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: my body, my mind, body and soul. And I don't

661
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: think we're ever going to be fully You can't be like, oh,

662
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: I'm fully ready, yeah, and I'm ready to be in

663
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 1: a relationship, like, but you gotta be more ready than

664
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: not like where you're like, I'm good, Like I'm good

665
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: with who I am, with what I have to offer

666
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: and what I'm going to accept and not accept in

667
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: a relationship. And I think that that's a fucking beautiful thing. Jenica, thanks, and.

668
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 3: Damn I did good.

669
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: I did good raising the slow growna. So going back

670
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: to like the industry, there's been many times when I

671
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: thought if I was this size in the English market,

672
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: I would be celebrated like a Lizzo like Adele was.

673
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: And now she's thinner, it's like more accepted in the

674
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: English market, it's in the Spanish. And that's just the truth,

675
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: is Como. They're very, very judgmental, and I've been told

676
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: a lot like oh you have such a pretty face,

677
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: So when are you gonna lose weight. I mean straight up,

678
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: Like I remember being in an interview with Don Francisco

679
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: and he told me, like on the break, He's like,

680
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: is that's being Bonita Piro Denis Pistol And I had

681
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 1: just lost I think, like fifteen pounds. And it's something

682
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 1: that I've always been up and down with my wig

683
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 1: always like I feel like I take care of myself

684
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: more than the normal person, and it's always just been

685
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: more difficult for me to just drop as much weight

686
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: as like the average person, you know. And I've gone

687
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: to like a hormone therapy, like try to like figure

688
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: out my thyroid situation because there's a thyroid situation in

689
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: our family, and it really can affect you because it's

690
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: like I don't think I'm that bad, but for you,

691
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: I am. And I do think that if I was,

692
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: I don't know, like forty pounds later, maybe I would

693
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: probably have more oppertu tunities.

694
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 3: I could be wrong, but I do think that.

695
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 2: I can't complain too much as plus size because when

696
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 2: I started becoming an influencer, I wanted to I put

697
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 2: it on like my goals, like Okay, I want to

698
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 2: be a model for this brand. This brand and this brand,

699
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 2: and I'll think about it. I'm like okay, Like they

700
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 2: included plus size women, which is obviously a plus, which

701
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 2: is amazing, but they don't include women in the Latin

702
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: community like they'll do African American, which is awesome. Like

703
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 2: I'm happy at least the plus size community is being included,

704
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 2: But when it comes to Latinas in our world, like say,

705
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 2: if we were go to Mexico, like you don't see

706
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 2: like people on billboards for a plus size brand or whatever,

707
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 2: because the way that Latinos were raised were to be

708
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 2: like you have to be super strict and super harsh

709
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 2: on yourself. Like once you go to Mexico, once you

710
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 2: cross the border and TJ, all you see is the

711
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: doctors or like there's like there's one that's like if

712
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 2: you're a beast, call this number or whatever. And it's

713
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 2: like it is harder in our community like to be

714
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 2: recognized or to be like honored for our bodies because

715
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 2: it's not the normal or how these old generations saw it.

716
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, because there are women that I've been around and

717
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: I won't say their names, that are like way older

718
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: than I am, and they have like amazing bodies and

719
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: I just I guess I'm just I refuse to live unhappy,

720
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: like I like to enjoy my food and enjoy life.

721
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: So when we've gone to these luncheons and I'm with

722
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: other artists and they see me eat a piece of bread,

723
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: it's kind of like, oh my god, I can't believe

724
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: you eat that, like kind of like no, wonder you

725
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 1: are the way you are, Like they won't even touch,

726
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 1: not even a tiny bit, And I'm like, are you

727
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 1: really happy? Like like you got to like give yourself

728
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 1: some room to have fun, you know. And I've been

729
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: around it, and it's like sometimes like if I would

730
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: have allowed it, it could be very, very traumatizing. But

731
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 1: I just constantly tell myself, I know who I am, Jose,

732
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 1: I don't have to be this skinny girl to be

733
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: talented to do what I do on stage. Like it's

734
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: just it's literally telling myself this every single day and

735
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 1: telling myself that I am loved. And I think it's

736
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 1: hard for me because I'm not like skinny, but I'm

737
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: not plus I, so it's like I feel like, no,

738
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 1: it's like a little bit like hard, but I'm like,

739
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: fuck it, we.

740
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 3: Gotta love ourselves ladies, we gotta love ourselves.

741
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: There's gonna be someone out there for us that's gonna

742
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: love us for who we are, what we have to

743
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 1: offer in every single way. I think we have to

744
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: just stop like looking at these people on social media

745
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: as the example of what we should look like.

746
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 3: And yes, like.

747
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: There's always room for improvement on the outside, and it's

748
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 1: taking a step every single day towards that, but not

749
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 1: becoming obsessed with it, because when you become obsessed with it,

750
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 1: like there's no way that you can be happy. Like,

751
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: you have to find some balance in all of it.

752
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm a huge believer in Monday through Friday, watch what

753
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: you eat, do your best to just give it your all,

754
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 1: be disciplined, be consistent, and on the weekends, live your

755
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: fucking life. It's all balanced. Like you can't like live

756
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: your life just oh my god, like super obsessed like

757
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: it just people always like, oh my god. You guess

758
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: they criticize it too much. You're always happy, well because

759
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, I want to be happy, so I'm going

760
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,439
Speaker 1: to do the things that make me happy. So that's

761
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: finding the balance in your life, you guys, And especially

762
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: when it comes to weight, because believe me. We know

763
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: what it's like and how hard it can be and

764
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 1: how cruel people can be, but we still know we

765
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: some badass bitches like Jenica has her overcomfort tell us

766
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: about overcomfort grown, I'm so proud of you so well.

767
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:41,240
Speaker 2: Overcomfort is basically I started out with Athletic Air because

768
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 2: I would go to workout and I would only find

769
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 2: workout clothes at Target. And Target has good quality, but

770
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 2: after a while it rips, it gets too stretchy, or

771
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 2: it just doesn't work out. So I use the example

772
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 2: of like I would hate going to shop at stores

773
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,400
Speaker 2: and I would cry because they never had my size

774
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 2: or the size that they had just didn't work out.

775
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 2: Like I just didn't feel good. It would be a

776
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 2: two X when it's really like an extra large. So

777
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 2: I was just like, you know what, Like I want

778
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 2: to make something that's accessible, that's affordable for people to

779
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 2: go ahead and just shop and feel confident and comfortable in.

780
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 2: And like I started out with the Feeling Good collection

781
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 2: because ultimately I want people to feel good about themselves.

782
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 2: I want people to feel good about themselves mentally. That's

783
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 2: what overcomfort is is like getting out of your comfort

784
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 2: zone to really reach your highest potential on who you

785
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 2: are mentally and physically. And that's what it's done for me.

786
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 2: Like if I didn't leave my comfort zone of like

787
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: getting out of my bed, you guys, I would sleep

788
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 2: in until like two, three, four o'clock and I wouldn't

789
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 2: do anything. And I knew I was depressed, but I

790
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 2: wouldn't get out of bed, and it was comfortable for me.

791
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 2: I felt good being in bed. I felt something could

792
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 2: feel good. But it's also you're in your comfort zone.

793
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 2: You're not reaching out to really get to where you

794
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 2: need to be or to what I feel like God

795
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 2: has called me to do or to be in the

796
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 2: world or in this life and what his purpose is

797
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 2: for me. So that's why it's called over comfort. I

798
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 2: started with the Feeling Good collection because I feel like

799
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 2: everyone deserves to feel good every day. There's no reason

800
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 2: for someone not to feel good. And I feel like

801
00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,839
Speaker 2: once you wear something that you like, you feel good

802
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 2: in it. The power of an outfit is insane, like

803
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 2: when you're dolled up or once you get a workout,

804
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 2: then you feel good. So that was the first collection,

805
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 2: and I have so much more, like things that are

806
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 2: that touch me to the core, like that have helped me,

807
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 2: especially like since twenty twenty, and I feel like it

808
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 2: was like a whole pandemic thing where things were just

809
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 2: like really really bad and I was in a really

810
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 2: bad mental space. And the things that have helped me

811
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 2: that I want people to know that can help them

812
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 2: as well. So whatever I did in twenty twenty to

813
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,399
Speaker 2: help me mentally, I'm gonna just basically come up.

814
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: With tell us your slogan again, calling over comfort, Calling

815
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 1: over comfort. So it's basically stepping out of your comfort

816
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 1: zone and reaching your full potential.

817
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, love that. I love that. And it's just for

818
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 3: women right now, right, No, the first collection was just for.

819
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 2: Women, but everything else that's gonna come out is yetx.

820
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 1: Okay, and talking just for women, things about just for women,

821
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 1: I really like. I think we talked about this, Jenica.

822
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,439
Speaker 1: I think it'd be great to eventually have our own

823
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 1: gym just for women. I would love that.

824
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 2: I would love that, Like that's a goal because, like

825
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 2: I said, my friends literally go to the gym not

826
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 2: to idolize or like stare at women, but it's like

827
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:33,919
Speaker 2: an ego thing for them, and it's just like no,

828
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 2: like I would always feel awkward, like They have this

829
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 2: thing on TikTok called oh this is for the shy

830
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 2: girls or whatever. Yeah, there's a bunch of girls that

831
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 2: don't know what the fuck to do in the gym

832
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,799
Speaker 2: and don't want to go because there's these hot ass

833
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 2: guys that are just assholes. So like make a gym

834
00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:50,760
Speaker 2: that where everybody can feel comfortable.

835
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: Yes, that's my biggest thing, because sometimes there are girls

836
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: that go to the gym for the wrong reasons to

837
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: find a dude and they're not really working out, and

838
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 1: there are those guys that make women that really want

839
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 1: to go in there and lose weight and sweat and

840
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 1: not look cute, make them feel insecure, and make them

841
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 1: feel uncomfortable. So that's one thing that I have on

842
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: my vision board, you guys, and I think I'm probably

843
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: gonna do with my sister Jennica. I'm excited for us

844
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: to do like an all women's gym where you go

845
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 1: in there and you box and you freaking just like

846
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 1: let it all out. So you guys send us good

847
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: vibes that can happen. So, Janica, I don't know if

848
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: you have anything else to add, but I've really enjoyed

849
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 1: a conversation you always amaze me. It's crazy because I

850
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: talk to you every single day, but to have you

00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,120

Speaker 1: your mind. You're just so intelligent. And I'm always a

853
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 1: say channel like Fromana, but it's the truth. Like I'm

854
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,280
Speaker 1: just so proud. I'm so proud of you, Jennica.

855
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 2: I'm proud of you. Thank you for having me. I

856
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 2: say it all the time. I don't really tell you,

857
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 2: but like a lot of what I've learned, or a

858
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 2: lot of where I'm or because of where I'm at

859
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 2: is because of like my influences around me and like

860
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 2: you and Mom and like Jackie and learning different things

861
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 2: here and there, Like I owe a lot of what

862
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 2: I am to you.

863
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:05,839
Speaker 3: So thank you, Penny. I love you so much. Okay, well,

864

Speaker 3: thank you again, Jenny.

865
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: And as you guys know, I always end my podcasts

866
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: with a motivational quote and I thought this one was

867
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: very fitting. Okay, since we're on this topic, say goodbye

868
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: to your inner critic and take this pledge to be

869
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: kinder to yourself and to others. It's a decision every

870
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 1: single day that you must take. Okay, some days will

871
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: be harder than others. But if you decide in the morning,

872
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be kind to myself. I'm gonna speak words

873
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 1: of love. I love myself, I love my body. Everything's

874
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,799
Speaker 1: gonna be okay. Like all those things that I tell

875
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: myself every day, it will really help. So so pledge

876
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 1: with me that we will be kinder to ourselves and

877
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,319
