Right, So this is, 75 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: like we said, twenty years in the making. And I 76 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: think for Deval and I, we met really young. We 77 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: were eighteen nineteen. I mean knew each other since elementary school, 78 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: but I mean really started dating and. 79 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 3: Having a relationship in college. 80 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: So we were struggling a bit because we were individuals, 81 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: of course eighteen and nineteen years old, who were still 82 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: trying to find out who we are as people and 83 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: grow right in that. But then also at the same time, 84 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: so to consider the other person's feelings, have to kind 85 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: of make a decision with someone else in mind. So 86 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: early on in our relationship we struggled with a lot 87 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 1: of that because we felt like we weren't communicating effectively. 88 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: And a lot of it too had to deal with 89 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: our past, and it had to do with the way 90 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 1: we were raised. I was raised in your traditional West 91 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: Ending household, where we don't really have conversation like that. 92 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: It's kind of like things may go wrong, you might 93 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: feel away about something, but you kind of just hope 94 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: and expect that it'll blow over. 95 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 3: Right. 96 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 1: You're not gonna give details about it. You're not gonna 97 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: tackle the problem. You sweep it under the rug and 98 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: hopefully it goes away. Devout grew up the complete opposite, 99 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: you know. He used to have family debates and family 100 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: they talked about everything and how everyone felt and tried 101 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: to come to a resolution. So when we started dating 102 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: and as our relationship progressed, that was a challenge for us. 103 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 3: So even in our book and in. 104 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: Writing the book We Over Me, we talk a lot 105 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: about how our childhoods affected us and brought us to 106 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: be the individuals that we are today. And it was 107 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: acknowledging those things and how it manifested itself in the 108 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: way that we communicated, in the way that we showed 109 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: up for each other in our relationship. 110 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: So even taking it a step further. 111 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: Deval, being Husband of the Year, moves my parents in 112 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: to live with us to help us with the boys. 113 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: So in him bringing my parents into live with us, 114 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: now he's literally getting a bird's eye view into how 115 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: even my parents coexist, and he's like, wow, Kadein, I 116 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: have such a greater understanding for you and why you 117 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: are the way you are and why you respond the 118 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: way you sponded to certain things because I can see 119 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: how your parents raised you and what your family dynamic 120 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,799 Speaker 1: was like. So it required a lot of conversation between 121 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 1: Deval and I, and we never really knew how to 122 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: communicate effectively. 123 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 3: I felt like we had a lot of roadblocks over 124 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 3: the year. 125 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: Is because I took devous transparency in his honesty as 126 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: him as him kind of badgering me as him pointing 127 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,799 Speaker 1: out my flaws. I felt very inadequate at times because 128 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: I felt like, man, I'm not living up to the 129 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: standard of what he's looking for in a partner. So 130 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: I used to kind of self loathe and didn't realize 131 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: why I had such a hard time just being able 132 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: to express myself. But we were invested in each other, 133 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: and it required a lot of conversations, a lot of 134 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: deep questions that really caused me to really search deep 135 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,799 Speaker 1: and say, you know what, this is not necessarily in attack. 136 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: It's my husband being invested in wanting to know deep 137 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: down how I feel about whatever the scenario is. 138 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 3: And just that interest that he. 139 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: Took in me alone made me feel like, man, at 140 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: least somebody really wants to hear me out. He wants 141 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: to understand where I'm coming from. He may not always agree, 142 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 1: but at least he understands what makes me tick. He 143 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: understands why I made the decision that I made. And 144 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: I can't express to y'all how much that patience and 145 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: that navigating how we communicated helped us get past whatever 146 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: family traumas, whatever generational curses like. 147 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 3: We like to say, had impacted us. As children now adults. 148 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, for me, it was just trying to understand who 149 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 5: her parents were so that I could then understand who 150 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 5: she is. And then when she says stuff, I had 151 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 5: to learn how not to judge her for how she feels. Right, So, 152 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 5: for example, if she's upset about something in the past, 153 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 5: and she would tell me, you know, when you said this, 154 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 5: it hurt my feelings instantly, my thought process is, let 155 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 5: me explain to you why what I said shouldn't hurt 156 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 5: your feelings. And I was trying to constantly explain what 157 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 5: my intention was and pretty much try to invalidate her feelings. 158 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 5: Now what I do is is, Okay, I said something 159 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 5: that made you feel away. I'm going to acknowledge that 160 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 5: you feel a way and apologize that you feel a way. 161 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 5: I'm still going to explain to you why I did 162 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 5: what I did, and then it's on you to decide 163 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 5: if you want to accept my apology and we move forward. 164 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 5: I'm not going to just sit here and badge her 165 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 5: to make her change your mind. I'm going to listen 166 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 5: to her. I understand how you feel, this is how 167 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 5: I meant it.

So the 280 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: biggest thing for me was consistency. That was an issue, right, 281 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: And I believe the culture around women having to snap back, 282 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: of course with social media and celebrity culture is a stressor, right. 283 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 3: The biggest thing that I. 284 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: Learned after each child, well, I learned this information which 285 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: is completely just scientific. My obgyn told me after Jackson, 286 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: go easy on yourself because after having a baby, first 287 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: of all, it took ten months to get to that 288 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: point for you to grow an entire human. What makes 289 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: you think that you're gonna snap back in six weeks. 290 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: The body hormonally after a baby doesn't even regulate to 291 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: baseline for most women until nine to twelve months after birth. 292 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 3: So think about that. 293 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: You have all these hormonal imbalances going on, you're tied, 294 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: you're maybe breastfeeding, bottle feeding, whatever it is, you're breastfeeding exactly, 295 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: so you're up with a baby every two hours, feeding 296 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: on demand. Then, not to mention too, you're gonna eat 297 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: what you want to eat because you just feel comfortable 298 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: in that space. The biggest thing is giving yourself grace. 299 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 1: You have to. You have to for your own mental 300 00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: health and your own sanity. For me, it was important 301 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: for me to just get back moving again. I feel 302 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 1: my best self when i'm moving, when i'm active, when 303 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: I'm able to bounce around. Thankfully, having devoured by my side, 304 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: he's able to encourage me. The days that I don't 305 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: feel like going to the gym. 306 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: He's there. 307 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 2: She cusses me out. 308 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: I do. I have almost where I don't want to go, 309 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: and he hears it too. But also have an accountability partner. 310 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: So I think you had posted something recently about me 311 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: being in shape or something, and some of the backlass 312 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: you got was that you're so overly concerned with my 313 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: body getting back and something like that. 314 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, a couple of people, because I always post Kadeen 315 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 5: in a way to just empower her make her feel 316 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 5: comfortable about yo, I'm on this journey with you, and 317 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 5: I guess a couple of ladies felt like I was 318 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 5: always pushing her to work out right, and reality, I've 319 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 5: never pushed Kadeen to work out ever. I've always only 320 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 5: asked her when she's ready, let me know and I 321 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 5: can help you. But the biggest thing for me, and 322 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 5: I'm gonna speak to the gentleman here is we like 323 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 5: to have. We like when our women look a certain way. 324 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 5: We also have to be involved in their maternal health 325 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 5: and their health in general so that we can facilitate 326 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 5: that look, which means I go to the gym her 327 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 5: with her. I know all of her I know everything 328 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 5: she's supposed to eat, not supposed to eat, her sleeping pattern. 329 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 5: I pay attention to all of these details so that 330 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 5: I can be of assistance to her going through this journey. 331 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 5: And when she doesn't want to do it, I've learned 332 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 5: to be like, cool, you have your own process, but 333 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 5: when you do, we gonna go together. 334 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 2: Because the more we go together, the more I've noticed. 335 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 5: Like it's gonna sound crazy, but it's almost like her 336 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 5: pheromones and my hormones match met Schuell. And when we 337 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 5: go to the gym together, it's an enjoyable process, but 338 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 5: not the process of be telling her what to do. 339 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 5: She has her workout, we go together, I do my workout. 340 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 5: She'd be watching me from afar. I walk by, tap 341 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 5: on the booty, give us some encouragement, keep going. But 342 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 5: I've noticed with that type of encouragement she's just been 343 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 5: more into going to the gym. But it all started 344 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 5: with me understanding certain things about like the women's women's body. 345 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 5: For example, you said you had a baby win November, right, 346 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 5: and your breastfeeding. I want you guys to think about this, right, 347 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 5: I want you guys think about this. The most disciplined 348 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 5: people in the world, right, Navy seals, Army rangers. 349 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 2: Right. 350 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 5: These people train for months to learn how to deal 351 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 5: with sleep deprivation, and they are the most disciplined people 352 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 5: on the planet. But they even have to train for 353 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 5: sleep deprivation. But in society, we expect a mom to 354 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 5: deal with sleep deprivation. 355 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 2: Be a wife, be a mom, go to work. It's 356 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 2: a lot. You know what I'm saying. 357 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 5: And I'm not saying this now as the like I know, 358 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 5: like I'm so wise. 359 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 2: No, I'm saying this because it's my four fucking kids. 360 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 2: And when it was my first kid. When it was 361 00:17:58,760 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: my first kid, it. 362 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 3: Was disrespectful, y'all. He was disrespectful. 363 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: I was not disrespectful him. 364 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 3: What you told me? 365 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 2: So damn you're gonna put me out there these people 366 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 2: like me, why would you do that? 367 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 3: Telling the truth? Are transparent? 368 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 6: Right? 369 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 3: We keep it real, right, Hey, I love you, you 370 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 3: know that. Don't even go there. 371 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 5: So this is after our first baby. My mom had 372 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 5: three natural births. So at six weeks I was like, 373 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 5: what's up. She was just like, I know, babey, no baby. 374 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 5: We were having an argument. I was like, yo, you 375 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 5: act like you the first woman to ever have a baby. 376 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 5: I said that, Yeah, I said it, said it, But 377 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 5: I was twenty seven. I had no clue what a 378 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 5: woman's body goes through, and I felt like I was 379 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 5: doing everything in my power as a husband at that 380 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 5: time to make sure that her life was good. I 381 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 5: moved to grandmother in with us. Her mom used to 382 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 5: come over every day. I made sure that everything around 383 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 5: her was easy, so I thought that that would help 384 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 5: her get back. I didn't understand the psychological and physiological 385 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 5: effects that having a baby was gonna have on her body. 386 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 5: And the reason why I don't mind telling that story 387 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,959 Speaker 5: is because there's some young couple in here who's probably 388 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 5: going through the same thing. Who she's looking at her 389 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 5: baby's father or husband like, YO, like, what's your problem? 390 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 5: Why aren't you like deval If I only talk about 391 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 5: how much I know now, rather than saying, oh, you, 392 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 5: just like Deva. 393 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 2: Was when he was twenty seven. You know what I'm saying. 394 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 5: We have to learn as people to give each other grace, 395 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 5: the same way I gave Kadeen grace as I learned 396 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 5: about her body. She gave me grace because if you 397 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 5: didn't give me grace, we would be divorced and she'd 398 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 5: be cussing. 399 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 2: Me out like everybody else. 400 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 5: And I think it's important to tell that part of 401 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 5: the story too, because I know this is your first child. 402 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 5: Second okay, so you know a lot of the stuff 403 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 5: that I've y'all gone through that and now it's the 404 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 5: second time around and. 405 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 2: You feel a lot more prepared. 406 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 5: We're hoping that somebody hears this and says, you know what, babe, 407 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 5: now that I understand what sleep deprivation is, I'll be 408 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 5: more inclined to give you some grace. I want you 409 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 5: all to know, ladies too. You know who else deals 410 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 5: with sleep deprivation. Your child's father. And this is the truth. Somebody, Look, 411 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 5: somebody sucked their tea. 412 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 2: Looks, why are you gonna suck your tee? Why are 413 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 2: you gonna suck your teeth? Huh huh. 414 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 5: You don't think I was up you crazy. Let me 415 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 5: tell Let me tell you. Let me tell you what 416 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 5: my schedule talking about. Let me tell you what my 417 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 5: schedule was like with Cairo. Right, Cairo Kadeen wasn't working. 418 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 5: Stop me when I'm lying. Was I not putting fourteen 419 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 5: hours in the gym, fourteen hours at the gym working 420 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 5: I owned the gym. I had to be there to 421 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 5: make sure that I could supplement whatever she wasn't bringing 422 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 5: in at the time, because I wanted to make sure 423 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 5: that my wife didn't have to go back to work. 424 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 5: Was I not working seven days a week, I had 425 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 5: no days off. I was working fourteen hours a day. 426 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 5: When I came home from them, the first thing kay 427 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 5: did was give me Cairo in my line yep. So 428 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 5: when was my time as a dad to be off? 429 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 5: I worked fourteen hours. Soon as I came in, she 430 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 5: gave me the baby. So now when she goes to 431 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 5: take the rest, I'm trying to make sure that she 432 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 5: has some time to herself. It's three or four hours 433 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 5: that I'm with Cairo. That's eighteen hours already. D Val 434 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 5: still got to eat and sleep. Every time Kadean got 435 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,479 Speaker 5: up with Kyro to breastfeed. Did I get up. 436 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 3: Yeah I did. 437 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 5: I got up and this like this, you good, okay, 438 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 5: but it's still broken sleep. And after months you don't 439 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 5: realize how your husband or your child's father is going 440 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 5: through the same thing. You're going through the same way. 441 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 5: You got to learn how to deal with sleep deprivation, 442 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 5: so does he. Because I was a grumpy motherfucker was 443 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 5: I not? Were so on top of sleep deprivation. I 444 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:54,640 Speaker 5: wasn't even getting no. 445 00:21:54,640 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 2: Booty, no. So we was at each other that he 446 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 2: was at each other. But here's the biggest thing. 447 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 5: By Cairo, she and I were a little bit more aware, 448 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 5: so there wasn't the same type of vitriol towards each 449 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 5: other as it was for Jackson. But I always want 450 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 5: to point that out too, because I feel like dads 451 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 5: who are real involved in their children's lives don't get 452 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 5: enough credit. And when we do well, people say things like, 453 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 5: that's what you're supposed to do. 454 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 2: But if you ever. 455 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 5: Say to a woman that's what you're supposed to do, 456 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 5: now you're being massagynistic. So I'm always gonna speak for 457 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 5: the gentleman fellas. 458 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 8: All right, now that's fuck God. 459 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: Now they want to talk of I love that and 460 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: when it comes to the workouts. Girl, I've noticed recently 461 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: that I was, yeah, this is the same person that 462 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: whispered to me. Okay, we got to keep it concise 463 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: because it's a lot of people. Meanwhile, about five minutes, 464 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: ten minutes later, my bad. 465 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 2: You know, I just got into my story. 466 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: It's all good when it comes to workouts. I've noticed 467 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: that it has helped me keep my curves. But slim 468 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: down is higher protein. Trying to eat at least five 469 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: meals a day, and I mean like breakfast, small meals, 470 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: small snack, lunch, small snack, dinner, sometimes a protein shake, 471 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 1: something that's easy. Like now that I'm on the road, 472 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: I have my greens with me, vitamins with me, protein 473 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: bars like whatever I can just eat so my body 474 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: doesn't go into starvation mode. Also, ladies, quiet as it's kept. 475 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: I know you don't want to be bulky. 476 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 3: Sometimes. Look, weren't lift weights I lift? 477 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 2: She didn't want to do it either. I ain't a 478 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 2: football player. Why I got a hand clean? 479 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 5: Now her ass on her lower back, and she's like, 480 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 5: if I look at my ass, I'm like, I know, 481 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,120 Speaker 5: hand clean deadlifts, front squats, back squats. 482 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 2: Lunges, sprints. Don't get on that trup mill. 483 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 5: In forty five minutes on the treadmill, you're gonna be skinny. 484 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 5: You're gonna be skinny like them women that be running 485 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 5: the marathons. They be skinny fat because they'd be skinny, 486 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 5: but they still got fat pockets. 487 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 3: Skinny fat. I've never seen that, y'all seen skinny fat pever. 488 00:23:58,359 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: Yes, it's a thing. 489 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 5: Be because people who run marathons their bodies always in 490 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 5: starvation mode, so they store fats to pocket and places 491 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 5: and no muscle. So that's why their body looks emaciated 492 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,479 Speaker 5: for doing miles forty five minutes on the treadmill. 493 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 2: You don't gotta do that. 494 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 3: Their heart health is probably popping, though it is. 495 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 5: They have great heart health, great heart health, but poor 496 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 5: muscular structure is bad for your joints.

Or did we agree to have 531 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 5: a fourth child, because I know everybody knew after the 532 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 5: three whole boys, she was like, she done, she done, 533 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 5: she done. 534 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 2: Here's the truth. 535 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 5: Kadeen came to me one day and said, I don't 536 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 5: feel like I'm done having kids. She said she didn't 537 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 5: feel like she was done having kids. I said to her, 538 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 5: I said, hey, now, hey, now, I can't guarantee you 539 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 5: that this is gonna be a girl. 540 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 2: I can't, I can't, but I can guarantee you that. 541 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 5: If we have another child, we will be able to 542 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 5: expand our family and do it in a healthy, positive way, 543 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 5: and we gonna. 544 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 2: Love whatever it is. 545 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 5: That was my way of making sure that if it 546 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 5: was another boy, it wasn't just my fault. And she 547 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 5: was just like, I don't care if it's a boy 548 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 5: or a girl. She just wanted to have another child. 549 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 5: And once she says she was ready to be a 550 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 5: mom again, I was like, let's do it. 551 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 2: Let's let's get it done. So the answer is no, 552 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:42,919 Speaker 2: I didn't trick her. 553 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,479 Speaker 5: If you read the book, you find out that Kadeen 554 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 5: and I had an unexpected pregnancy in college. So part 555 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 5: of the reason why Kadeen and I take childbirth child, 556 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 5: labor child rearing so like serious is because since we 557 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 5: were nineteen years old, this has always been part of 558 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 5: our mindset how we were going to raise our families 559 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 5: and making sure we do it the right way. 560 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 6: So when it came to. 561 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,400 Speaker 5: Having children, we joked online about having three hole boys 562 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 5: and only wanting a daughter. But it didn't matter to 563 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 5: me if I had five, six, seven, eight sons. It 564 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 5: didn't matter to me if I had eight daughters. Who Now, 565 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 5: I just well, we can't have no more. 566 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 2: Cause uh yeah, go ahead, go ahead. I got cut up. 567 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I that episode did. I got the snip snippities. 568 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 5: I went to sleep one night, woke up in the 569 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 5: doctor's office. I said, what the fuck am I doing here? 570 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 5: She was like, nothing, baby, go back to sleep. 571 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 2: I was like, all right, listen. 572 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 3: And it was the craziest thing. 573 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: So imagine this, you know, I schedule, I found the 574 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: best roologists I could find out in Atlanta and made 575 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: the appointment. 576 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 3: So it took the. 577 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: Valin that morning and just imagine driving into this place. 578 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: There's a parking lot full of cars, and literally every 579 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: car was a man taking. 580 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 3: This really slow, reluctant walk out of the car into 581 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 3: the office. All of us was like this, and then 582 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 3: one by one you're seeing the wives. 583 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: Go back in and pick their husband up and walking 584 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: them slowly back out. It was like dropping your kid 585 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: off at daycare and coming back. 586 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 2: We was looking at each other like. 587 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 3: Everybody know why they're there. 588 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 2: Come on, but you next, you next, come on, don't 589 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 2: fall asleep now, it was. It was a sad day. 590 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 2: It was a sad day. 591 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: It was. 592 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 2: It was a sad day. 593 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 3: I mean, but you know it was time. 594 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: It was. 595 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 7: But now. 596 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 2: Here's here's one thing I will tell you. I didn't 597 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 2: know this women. 598 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 5: The women's libidos are definitely different than men's, but they 599 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 5: also every time you lay down with a woman, the 600 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 5: thought process is I could get pregnant. 601 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 2: Yes, for men, that's not the thought process. So we'd 602 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 2: be ready to go. And it wasn't until years. 603 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 5: Kadeen was explaining to me, like, yo, we laid down 604 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 5: to have a good time and then we just got 605 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 5: kash randomly, like that's my biggest fear. 606 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 3: Then I got the IUD. 607 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: Put in anybody else who've had the IUD supposed to 608 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: be non hormonal. So I'm thinking, oh, this is the 609 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: perfect way to prevent pregnancy, and I can have a 610 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: good time. But that was causing a whole another set 611 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,479 Speaker 1: of issues for me, to the point where I went 612 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: for a physical one day and I was borderline the kneemaic. 613 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: Why because every momth I'm losing tons of blood like this, 614 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: just like I was TMI. 615 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 3: But ladies, y'all know what I'm talking about. 616 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 617 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 3: So at that point, I said, you know what, I know, 618 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 3: I wasn't done with children. 619 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: I just had that feeling and any woman that I 620 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: had spoken to, even women older than me, that said, 621 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: you'll know when you're done. It's just like a thing 622 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: that women know when they're done. I just felt like 623 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: I wasn't done regardless if we had a. 624 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 3: Girl and boy. 625 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: And I just thought of a funny ass story of 626 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: how we found out in the very very early stages 627 00:30:59,240 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: that it was a boy. 628 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 3: Did we ever tell us? 629 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. 630 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 3: I don't think we did. 631 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: She said, girl tell us, all right, So this real quick, 632 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 2: real quick. 633 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 3: Sorry I got questions, but this one was a funny. 634 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 5: Eden was already pregnant, Kadeen was already pregnant. We were 635 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 5: trying to find out if it was a boy or 636 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 5: a girl. 637 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 2: They got anybody special. 638 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 3: The test called sneak peak. I never heard of sneak peak. 639 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 5: So with a sneak peek, you take a blood test, 640 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 5: you put your finger, you take a blood test, and 641 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 5: you put it in this thing. You send it into 642 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 5: a lab and they tell you they send you in 643 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 5: about a week if you have a boy or a girl. 644 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 2: But the thing is, with a sneak. 645 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 5: Peak, you can't have any other testosterone around.

So I just 718 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 9: want to acknowledge her. 719 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 2: And that was I could have shout out to you. 720 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 12: Yes. 721 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 9: So the first part of my question is can I 722 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 9: give you all a copy of my book? Definitely got 723 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 9: me a word with B on everything. 724 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,919 Speaker 3: A word would be book right here, Thank you doing. 725 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 9: Then my question is my husband to know right here, 726 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 9: being a photographer, we have been married. 727 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,760 Speaker 3: It'll be four years in August. 728 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 9: We met at work. He was a police officer. I 729 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 9: was police dispatch. Shout out to Detroit police. We also 730 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 9: passed three boys. Like I said, our girl was stillborn. 731 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 9: But my question is how do you keep the balance 732 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 9: of keeping each other first while being a mother being 733 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 9: a father, Because I'm I'm family fairy oriented and I 734 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 9: often put our kids into everything, and he's like, babe, 735 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 9: what about me? Like, we don't always have to include 736 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 9: the kids, So how do you keep the balance of 737 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 9: not including a kid? 738 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 3: If you cracked open the book? Who knows what the 739 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 3: chapter is called? The kids ain't first facts? 740 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: And that's a fact Daval and I learned after just 741 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:06,399 Speaker 1: years of being parents, being spouses and then also having 742 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: businesses together, podcasts, careers, everything that we don't work well 743 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 1: and nothing around us stays afloat if he and I 744 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 1: are disconnected. So that's the first thing, because it all 745 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: started here with us. We are very deliberate about setting 746 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: out time now for each other, setting out time for 747 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: the children, Like I mean, shit, we stopped the whole 748 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 1: show to call Jackson on FaceTime just to make sure 749 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: that the moments that we're not therefore were still present 750 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: for right. So that's the utmost important to us, because 751 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: we too are very family orients, feed byel like we 752 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 1: grew up in households that were also very family oriented 753 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 1: as well. 754 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,600 Speaker 5: Absolutely, I'm gonna give you an l cheek code right here. 755 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 5: Ask your husband what he wants and when he tells you, 756 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 5: don't you judge him? 757 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 12: Do it? 758 00:36:55,960 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 2: Then tell him what you want and say I need 759 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 2: you to do this. This is what we do. I 760 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 2: kid you not. 761 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 5: And when you say that on social media or you 762 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 5: say that to a bunch of people who are not 763 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 5: trying to be of service to their partner, all your 764 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 5: heir is, oh my god, she's too submissive. On my god, 765 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 5: he's a simp. Your goal in a marriage is to 766 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 5: be of service to your spouse. 767 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,280 Speaker 2: That's your goal, period. 768 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 5: The only reason you get married is because you chose 769 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 5: to be of service. When he asked you, that was 770 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 5: his choice to ask you. When you accepted, that was 771 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 5: your choice to say yes. 772 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 2: Just be like, babe, what you need? Babe, what you need, 773 00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 2: I got you no matter what it is.

And 850 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 2: yes we rebuke that. I'm a knock on wood. 851 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,320 Speaker 5: I'm a knock on wood because it is snowing like 852 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 5: a motherfucker out signs. But there isn't a detail in 853 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 5: my life that I don't share with my wife. And 854 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 5: that comes from business to intimacy, because if you choose 855 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 5: a woman, or you choose a person, and that's the 856 00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 5: person you want to experience everything in life too. You 857 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 5: should feel comfortable just uploading everything on. 858 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 2: Her and watching her be like, I got you, babe, 859 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,320 Speaker 2: because I asked her to do the same thing for me. 860 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: Listen, Devouswo has business acumen. Like whenever you have a couple, 861 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 1: usually one might be stronger at one thing than the other, 862 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: and we understand what our strengths and weaknesses are. So 863 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: business acumen is his thing. Finances that's his thing, Creativity 864 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 1: that's his thing.
