And so I know we talk about 174 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 3: sex in the physical way, there's a way that you 175 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 3: can masturbate psychologically that will make you fucking come and 176 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 3: bitch go straight to sleep. 177 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: That's how I go to sleep almost every night, so 178 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: that would be my second. 179 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 2: Be some more sexuality going on with yourself with your head, 180 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 2: Like most people that are masturbating often and doing it 181 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 2: successfully are kind of practicing sexual thoughts more than others. 182 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 2: Like most times that I'm hearing women go through scenarios 183 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 2: like this, they aren't necessarily thinking about sex as often. 184 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 2: And not finding themselves as horny doesn't mean you aren't horny. 185 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 2: It just means, like it may not be top of mine. 186 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: You actually really do have to dedicate time to finding 187 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 2: out what you like because we pushed sex aside a 188 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: lot in a relationship and with ourselves. Like I can't 189 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: tell you the last time I'm masturbated. I just haven't 190 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 2: set out time to do it. I haven't been thinking 191 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 2: about it has nothing to do with the fact that 192 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 2: I have a boyfriend. We should one hundred percent still 193 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 2: be you know, pleasing ourselves. So I think we all 194 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 2: just kind of like slip up. 195 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. 196 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: Well, I hope that we were able to help you 197 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 3: or anyone else facing this problem. We're gonna go to 198 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 3: this second one. We're gonna make it a little bit 199 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 3: more vanilla and not so sex based, but Hopefully this 200 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 3: relates to some of you guys listening to Hi Weezy 201 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 3: and Mandy, hoping you both could share some insight around 202 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 3: being the only entrepreneur friend. For context, I'm taking over 203 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 3: my mom's business and because she's from a different generation, 204 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 3: that has meant full rebranding, new marketing, finding new accounts, 205 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 3: et cetera. It's been so much work on my part, 206 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 3: but super reward and I'm so excited about the future 207 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 3: and what we're building. I just found out my three 208 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 3: best friends are doing a euro trip without me, and 209 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 3: although I've come to be okay with being the friend 210 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 3: that can't always attend things, I also can't help but 211 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 3: feeling like I'm missing out and at the same time, 212 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 3: none of them understand this chapter I'm in right now 213 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 3: since I'm the only entrepreneur friend. Any advice on dealing 214 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 3: with this is so appreciated. Did you deal with this 215 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 3: while growing your businesses? 216 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: Hmm? With gratitude? And that's the question. Yeah, I don't know. 217 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 2: If I ever dealt with oh, I guess, yeah, I 218 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 2: guess right now. But mostly my LA friends they're like 219 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 2: newer friends. I think they need like more availability for me. 220 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: They don't want to bother me like friends feel like 221 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: they're putting pressure on me. And sometimes. 222 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 2: I think it also depends, like, Okay, we've all been there, 223 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 2: every single person. I have a bunch friends I haven't 224 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 2: called in weeks or months, But at the same time, 225 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: we're both not putting in the effort. That doesn't really 226 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 2: mean they go anywhere. Sometimes things can be like seasonal. 227 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 2: Me and Vinnie just realized we hadn't been on a 228 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 2: FaceTime in a month and we just made the time 229 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 2: to do it. 230 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: We're tattooed on each other twice. 231 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean this isn't my brother, or I didn't 232 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: put him inside of no hol's barred, like I love Anny, 233 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: but we just go through moments. People go through moments 234 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: where they kind of just forget. And I think if 235 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 2: you haven't been keeping up with your friends. Now, if 236 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: you were with these bitches doing brunch every Sunday and 237 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 2: then they left you out, that's a different story. 238 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: But in this context, who cares. They love you, they 239 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: care about you. 240 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: Maybe you guys haven't been keeping up as much as 241 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 2: you should. 242 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: Don't feel like. 243 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 2: You're sacrificing business and friends. You're only making more time 244 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 2: for yourself and building yourself, and sometimes that free time 245 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: that you may have been spending with your friends going 246 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 2: towards you can seem like, all right, our girls on 247 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: her shit right now, but don't look at it in 248 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 2: a bad way. 249 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 3: As I also want to add, because this is how 250 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 3: I am. There's only so many times I can invite 251 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 3: a friend before I stop, because every time I invite 252 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: them they say no, or every time I invite them 253 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 3: they can't make it, or every time I invite. 254 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: Them they're late. 255 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 3: Like, there's a few things that will keep me from 256 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 3: just being like, oh, this person just isn't available right now. 257 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 3: So if these three friends have been doing that and 258 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: they plan this European trip, I think you should look 259 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 3: at the consideration as well. Like, I get that maybe 260 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 3: you would have liked the invite, but you followed it 261 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 3: up with I'm okay with being the friend that always 262 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 3: can't attend things. So I think you have to sit 263 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 3: with what it means for you to be this entrepreneur 264 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 3: and get into the passion of what this business entails. 265 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: The fact that you're. 266 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 3: Literally going to be doing a full rebranding, new marketing, 267 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: and diving into this I don't want you to hold 268 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 3: again to your friends the moments that you can't share 269 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 3: with them at this very moment, but also understand that 270 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 3: you are the person that hasn't been able to attend 271 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 3: things because you're taking on this load. And so I 272 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 3: think that's that's the number one question as well for 273 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 3: entrepreneurs or people who work a lot, right, is that 274 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 3: work life balance? And so I don't want you to 275 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 3: feel as though these friends aren't showing up for you 276 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 3: in a time that you can't attend something that they've 277 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 3: been able to make time for simply because now you 278 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 3: guys don't have that same schedule. I can't say that 279 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 3: I've necessarily dealt with this only because I consider sex 280 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 3: workers entrepreneurs and so my entire adulthood has been filled 281 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 3: with friends starting businesses or using. 282 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: Their self as businesses. 283 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 3: So I haven't really had to deal with too much 284 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 3: of the up and downs of friends having a nine 285 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 3: to five and me having a more flippant schedule. 286 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 2: A lot of my friends is a commodity, so you're 287 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 2: not spending money maybe as much on branding and shit. 288 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: For example, Like it's think of someone that's maybe doing 289 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 2: a service. Let's say you're a closet organizer or a 290 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 2: sex worker. These are both things that you've got to 291 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 2: show up for. Maybe you're not spending big money on 292 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 2: like items or you know what I mean, like things 293 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: you need to sell, Like. 294 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: All of them could kind of look different. 295 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 2: But maybe she's spending a lot building this new business 296 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,479 Speaker 2: and her friends are just trying to be respectful. 297 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 3: Because that's what I said. That's if they just didn't 298 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 3: even invite you. It could very well be that as well. 299 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 3: It could be a money thing. It could be your availability. 300 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 3: I just let into availability because she literally said I 301 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 3: can't always attend things. So that leads me to believe 302 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 3: that you're aware that you're in this chapter, but you've 303 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 3: also maybe been invited to a few things and also 304 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 3: couldn't make it. 305 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: Two things can be true. 306 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 3: I think you should express to your friends, Hey, guys, 307 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 3: I know, I know I can't always make things, but 308 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 3: it would just mean a lot to me to be 309 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 3: extended the invite because as a friend, there could be 310 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 3: times in Okay, we're going to invite this whole no, 311 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 3: and she can't come, but we still want to consider her. 312 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: So that's that could also be a thing too. 313 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 3: We talk about communication with relationships all the time. I 314 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 3: think communication in friendships is just as important. And so 315 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,359 Speaker 3: if you're feeling left out, I'm not telling you you can't. 316 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: Feel that way. 317 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 3: Everyone is entitled to feel how they want, but then 318 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 3: you need to communicate. 319 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 1: Hey, I'm in this transitional spot. This is a lot 320 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: on me right now, but it would mean a lot 321 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: if I still just was extended the invite. 322 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 2: Now, even my advice to you, being an adult means 323 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 2: being honest about your feelings.

Now ninety eight percent 336 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 2: of me is being facetious. Two percent of me wishes 337 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 2: I was with my friends. However, at the end of 338 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 2: the day, when I've just made that joke about being 339 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 2: jealous or whatever, it's because I know I'm too busy 340 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:33,959 Speaker 2: to go hang out with y'all right now. But I 341 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 2: love that my two friends found this in each other, 342 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 2: and I like just keeping up with them. So there's 343 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 2: a world of you being like, all right, y'all, I 344 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 2: can't make it to Europe, but like, I need the tea, 345 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 2: I want the updates when y'all hit Paris or wherever 346 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: they're going, Like, you know, letting them know something like that, 347 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 2: because there may be a world where they felt like 348 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 2: you couldn't go and they feel weird to bring it 349 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 2: up too, because they don't want. 350 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: To make you feel bad. So figure out what makes 351 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: you feel most comfortable. 352 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 2: And as far as like sharing how you feel, is 353 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: it flat out making the joke so that they know it, is. 354 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: It saying it? 355 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 2: Because I know that it's very vulnerable to tell someone 356 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 2: I feel left out, and I think girls can get 357 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,239 Speaker 2: super catty. You know, Mandy and I are thirty four 358 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 2: years old and a lot of our friends we had 359 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 2: a long time. But I don't know your age, but 360 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 2: I found I struggled sometimes with women friendships in my 361 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 2: younger twenties that I don't anymore. If I see five 362 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 2: of my homegirls hanging out, I don't think the poe 363 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: is talking about me, you know what I'm saying. Like 364 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 2: when you're younger, sometimes you go through these ebbs and 365 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 2: flows of friendship and sisterhood takes a while to figure out. 366 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 2: Sometimes your real friends it takes a while to figure out. 367 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 2: And I think, depending on what level you're at, sharing 368 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 2: it with the closest person to you in that group 369 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 2: would be helpful. Maybe not everybody, but just one because 370 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 2: I really do believe women have had experiences with other 371 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 2: women that kind of deter them from sharing their emotions. 372 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 2: That's inevitable. We've all had a friend go through it, 373 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 2: even if it hasn't been us. So yeah, like making 374 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 2: sure you know you do have a strong backing with 375 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: someone so that you don't have to do this thing 376 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 2: of keeping it inside. 377 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 1: I agree. 378 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 3: And then I think, just as an entrepreneur, the last 379 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 3: tidbit of advice, like I said, would be to separate 380 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:24,199 Speaker 3: the two. Growing a business is like having a baby, 381 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 3: so and knowing that you have to do the full 382 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 3: rebrand and full shake up of this business. Think of 383 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 3: this as a as a brand new baby, and that's 384 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 3: what it is. And so there has to be a 385 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 3: way where you can separate what you want to do 386 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 3: in your personal life and doing the needed and necessary 387 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 3: investment to make sure that this business succeeds. And you 388 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 3: just have to know as an entrepreneur that you're going 389 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 3: to miss out on some trips, you go miss out 390 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 3: on some events, you go miss out on some fucking brunches, 391 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 3: But I don't know you'll get to a point where 392 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 3: it This is why you're working this hard and spending 393 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,479 Speaker 3: so much time so that you can provide yourself that 394 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 3: free time in the future to do all the things 395 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 3: that you. 396 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: Want first class. 397 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 3: What a lay flat?
