You never know. 106 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 2: I eventually, I feel like we're around the corner from 107 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 2: men being able to carry a baby. I know, we've 108 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: had a couple of male people carry babies that had 109 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 2: transitioned and kept transition from female to men, and then 110 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 2: they were able to carry a baby. 111 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 1: Because they still had their what do you need to 112 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: carry baby? A uterus? 113 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 3: Something like that. 114 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: But I feel like men are going to have become 115 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 2: obsolete if they don't come up with something, you know, 116 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 2: like straight straight men. Obviously gay men are fine, you know, 117 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: in my view, but straight men are going to have 118 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 2: to bring more to the table because people are getting 119 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 2: pregnant with or without them. You know, there are animals 120 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 2: that parthenogenesis. We've talked about this, where you can get pregnant. 121 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,119 Speaker 2: It happened to an anaconda. She got pregnant without a male. 122 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: It happened to a condor, a bird. Yeah what, uh huh, 123 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,559 Speaker 2: It's happened to like a lot of not a lot, 124 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 2: but it's definitely happened, and it happened twice in zoos, 125 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: so they had no exposure to the male species and 126 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 2: they were able to just fertilize their own eggs. 127 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 4: Jurassic perk here we come. 128 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, haven't I talked to you about this?

Within my group of friends, 608 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 4: there are two couples with a messy situation. Let's call 609 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 4: them Couple A and Couple B. I'm close friends with 610 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 4: all of them, especially the wife from each couple. Both 611 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 4: couples have young kids. The husband from Couple A recently 612 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 4: confided in US that his wife has been having an 613 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 4: on again, off again affair with husband B for over 614 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 4: ten years. 615 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 5: Oh. 616 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 4: Husband A confronted husband B about their affair and he 617 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 4: admitted it too great. Husband A is devastated and heartbroken. 618 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 4: He hasn't made any decisions yet about what he's going 619 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 4: to do. He feels that coming out with this and 620 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 4: telling Wife B will ultimately destroy two families. As far 621 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 4: as I know, my husband and I are the only 622 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 4: other people who know about the affair, and I feel 623 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 4: terrible that I know this information, But I haven't told 624 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 4: my friend wife B about what her husband has been 625 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: up to. 626 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: What do I do? 627 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 4: Do I tell Wife BE or leave it up to 628 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 4: Husband A to decide?

I 678 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 2: think it's it's best to just let let the chips 679 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 2: fall where they may, and then you can get in 680 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 2: there after and be like, listen, I was in a 681 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 2: really uncomfortable situation and I didn't know if you knew, 682 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 2: and you know, all of that stuff. I didn't want 683 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 2: to get involved in it because it was very confusing. 684 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 2: But yeah, I say stay out of it. 685 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I think I think a post mortem when 686 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 6: when everything hits the fan.

But as the years 698 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 6: go on, Like I just I don't think I could 699 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 6: only sleep with one person for the rest of my life. 700 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 6: I know, I know that I can't, but I'm not. 701 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 6: I don't want to be polyamorous.

How do I 738 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 4: let people know this without sounding cunty? 739 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: For context? 740 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 4: For the past two years, my doctors and I have 741 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 4: been trying to figure out why my body won't respond 742 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 4: to eating responsibly and consistently attending a spine gym for 743 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 4: about twelve of those months. This summer, she and my 744 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 4: undocrinologist diagnosed me with PCOS and one of the symptoms 745 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 4: is weight gain. We decided to try met Foreman and 746 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 4: tweak my eating habits and exercise routine and regroup in December. 747 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 4: While it's coming, decision time and nothing has changed, so 748 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 4: it's time to pivot to an injectable. From ages thirteen 749 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 4: to twenty seven ish, I struggled with bolimia, trendy diets, 750 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 4: obsessive workouts that made me a slave to the gym 751 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 4: for hours a day while tracking every gram of macros 752 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 4: across every piece of food, among other disordered eating behaviors. 753 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 4: After years of therapy, I'm now at my heaviest weight 754 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 4: but healthiest mental state. I'm a firm believer in body neutrality, However, 755 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 4: I feel my body just isn't meant to carry this 756 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 4: much weight in this form, and I'm uncomfortable and know 757 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 4: my body chemistry is just not operating correctly throughout my 758 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 4: weight fluctuations. The one thing that has been consistent is 759 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 4: that my family praises me when I'm in a smaller body. 760 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 4: I understand this is a cultural thing and they have 761 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 4: the best intentions. I also know I have done the 762 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 4: work to deal with how I perceive myself, but I 763 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 4: worry that those around me will keep up with their 764 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 4: old ways. Is there a way to get ahead of 765 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 4: this or handle the quote unquote compliments when I know 766 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 4: they mean well but also feel they could be damaging 767 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 4: to me.

Like 803 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 6: our bodies are only going to look a certain way 804 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 6: for a certain time. They're gonna fluctuate. They're gonna change 805 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 6: and we don't have control over that. So I think 806 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 6: that's a great mental space. That being said, also, we 807 00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 6: can't control other people's actions. We're not gonna be able 808 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 6: to control the compliments that they give us. But I 809 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 6: think that you can start to reframe those physical comments 810 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 6: into a space of if someone's like, hey, you look great, Kelly, 811 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 6: since you've lost eight you're like, thank you.

You 813 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 6: could also take lead on the conversation of being like, 814 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 6: thank you, but honestly, it's I feel amazing and I've 815 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 6: never felt better and I'm really happy, and that's the 816 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 6: thing that you want. 817 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 3: To get across to them. 818 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 6: It's just the way you feel and just taking charge 819 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 6: of the charge of the narrative and knowing you can't 820 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 6: control anybody whatever the heck they're gonna say. 821 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 4: I do think there's a little bit of room for 822 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 4: some teaching here.

It doesn't necessarily have to be 835 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 4: like a body thing. It can be something that's just 836 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 4: like something you're doing that's making you feel better in 837 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 4: your life. 838 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 2: But I also think it wouldn't be like okay if 839 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,919 Speaker 2: your family doesn't respond well to things. If you wrote 840 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 2: a thoughtful email to your family and said, listen, I'm 841 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 2: on this like weight loss journey. The times where I 842 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 2: have lost weight and have heard comments from you guys, 843 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 2: which I know you are, you know, giving me or 844 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 2: compliments about how I look good when I lose weight 845 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 2: or when I've dropped forty pounds. You can give specific 846 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,399 Speaker 2: examples about your freshman year in college, the comments I 847 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 2: know you mean well, but those kind of comments and 848 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 2: getting rewarded for having a smaller body. Have it helped, 849 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 2: so moving forward, it would really mean the world to 850 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 2: me if we could just keep the comments to yourself 851 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 2: about me and any sort of weight loss or weight 852 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 2: gain I have. I need to do this for my 853 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 2: own mental health and this is something that's really important 854 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 2: to me, and as people who love me, I can 855 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 2: only imagine that you want to support that. 856 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 7: That sounds doable. My family's not the type of people 857 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 7: that you can have that kind of conversation in person with. 858 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, write it in an email. 859 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 2: Let them all talk about it together and be like, oh, 860 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,120 Speaker 2: did you get the email we did? A like, let 861 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 2: them reflect and actually digest what you're saying. It's not unreasonable, 862 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,959 Speaker 2: and once they know that it has that impact on you, 863 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 2: they are going to think twice about making those comments. 864 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,919 Speaker 2: And you can say, we're in a different time, it's 865 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 2: not really appropriate to be making these comments. I'm feeling 866 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 2: so good about myself. I just want to keep feeling 867 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 2: good about myself and those kind of comments are not 868 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 2: helpful for me. 869 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: Okay, No, I like the sounds of that. 870 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 7: I just I guess I'm just nervous for you know, 871 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 7: sounding like pretentious and part of me touches. 872 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 2: But you're not being pretentious. You're being detective of yourself. 873 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 2: That's what you're being self empowering. There's nothing pretentious. Forget 874 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 2: about your family and where they're from. This is about 875 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 2: you and where you're from and where you're going. Like, 876 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,760 Speaker 2: there's nothing pretentious about that. That's actually being really upfront 877 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 2: and honest, and there's nothing wrong with it. 878 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 879 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 3: It's creating a boundary, communicating that boundary and telling people 880 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 3: to you know, not cross it. 881 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think like when people do, because you 882 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 4: will have people who who cross that boundary, even if 883 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 4: you've communicated with them, you know, having that patience and 884 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 4: being like thinks like, this isn't really because I'm doing 885 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 4: all these different things. This is because I'm treating the 886 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 4: pcos that you know caused some of this weight cane 887 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 4: and that sort of thing. You know, I'm working with 888 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 4: my doctors and getting good treatment. 889 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 890 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, and also and also do some of the work 891 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 2: that Cody mentioned about taking those comments and kind of 892 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 2: having them turn into a different comment in your head. 893 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 2: You really can't control what other people are going to 894 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 2: say or how they're going to react, so you have 895 00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 2: to kind of figure out the way that you're going 896 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,760 Speaker 2: to be able to digest them in a different way 897 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,919 Speaker 2: instead of having it make you feel like uncomfortable. There's 898 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 2: a way you can kind of empower yourself with those 899 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 2: comments and be like, I'm going to take that and 900 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 2: this is this is what I know that they meant 901 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 2: to say or that they wanted me to feel, So 902 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 2: I am going to choose to feel that way, even 903 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 2: though it's an annoying thing to keep hearing. 904 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, there's probably like a different way to 905 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 4: sort of metabolize those comments that you're getting, you know, 906 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 4: so to speak. But I also think it's really important 907 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 4: to underscore here that you know, we're in twenty twenty five, Like, 908 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 4: it's never okay to comment on someone else's body, you know, 909 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 4: whether their skin is discolored, or they have an injury, 910 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 4: or they've lost or gained weight, or they're wearing a 911 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 4: medical device, Like it's okay to just not say anything. 912 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 4: And in fact, it's preferable to not say anything unless 913 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 4: they bring it up and it's something that they choose 914 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 4: to talk about. You know, unsolicited comments about someone's weight 915 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 4: and especially weight loss can be really painful for people. 916 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 4: I mean people lose and gain weight for all kinds 917 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 4: of reasons. I mean, they may be going through a 918 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 4: period of grief, maybe they've changed medication that's caused weight 919 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 4: gain or weight loss. Maybe they're having a mental health crisis, 920 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 4: or they're dealing with an illness, maybe they have an 921 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 4: eating disorder, and those compliments really can get in their 922 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 4: head and do really lasting damage. So I think it's 923 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 4: really something that we have to pay attention to that, 924 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 4: like our words do matter, and sometimes even when we're 925 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 4: trying to be kind, it can unintentionally be really damaging. 926 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 4: So I think it's great to be able to set 927 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 4: these boundaries with your family. But if you have like 928 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 4: a neighbor who comments, or you know someone else in 929 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 4: your life who comments, one thing you can say is 930 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:42,239 Speaker 4: just like, yeah, I know, bodies change in all kinds 931 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 4: of ways for all different reasons, right, and just like 932 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 4: leave it at that, and like if it's a little awkward, 933 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 4: it's okay if it's a little bit awkward. But with 934 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,720 Speaker 4: a comment like that, you're not really giving any credence 935 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,879 Speaker 4: to like it's a positive thing or a negative thing, 936 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 4: but you're also not denying that it happened. 937 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,320 Speaker 1: So it's a good way to set a boundary. 938 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,399 Speaker 2: But I'll be afraid of putting up boundaries like that's 939 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 2: what we're lacking. Yeah, especially as women. 940 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, certainly with my family, we're grossly closed. 941 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 2: So yeah, okay, well, good put together an email, compose it, 942 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 2: take your time to write it, and I guarantee you you'll. 943 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: Be surprised by the results, yeah, or the response. I mean, 944 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: all right, thank you, thanks so much, Kelly. Thank you, bye, 945 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 1: Kelly Bye, have a good one. 946 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 4: I think that's such a good question too, because we 947 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 4: don't necessarily know what people's backstories are, whether they have 948 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 4: a condition that's causing weaking. Maybe they were depressed and 949 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:34,760 Speaker 4: lost fifty pounds. 950 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 6: You know. 951 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 4: It's a good teaching moment to have with her family. 952 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had. 953 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 2: I was in Mayorka this summer and this server, this 954 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:42,919 Speaker 2: restaurant that I go to a lot, there's a server 955 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 2: and from the beginning I went in June, and then 956 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,839 Speaker 2: I went back in September. And when I went back 957 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 2: in September, she had lost, like I mean, like fifty pounds. 958 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 2: And she was never heavy to begin with. She was 959 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,960 Speaker 2: very muscular and like very healthy. And I didn't say 960 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 2: anything because I knew better than to say anything, and 961 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 2: she said something and she was like, oh my god, 962 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: look at I'm wasting away.

But 969 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,400 Speaker 2: when she brought it up, or should have been like, 970 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 2: oh yeah yeah. 971 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: Plus we were speaking Spanish, so thought always go side. 972 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 6: You never know how someone's gonna interpret it.

I 987 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,959 Speaker 4: recently got married, and before the wedding I was able 988 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,720 Speaker 4: to motivate myself to eat clean and exercise by wanting 989 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 4: to look amazing in my wedding gown, which I killed it. 990 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 4: Now I'm several months post wedding and I can't get 991 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 4: motivated to do anything unless there's a staunch deadline. My 992 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 4: wedding guest thank you cards, I still haven't finished writing, 993 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 4: and overall I just prefer to laze around then start 994 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,880 Speaker 4: any of my home improvement projects. 995 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:22,320 Speaker 1: My partner's also. 996 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 4: Trying to get into a gym routine, but oftentimes are 997 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,720 Speaker 4: preferred time to work out just not align. Pre wedding, 998 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 4: I was involved with a spin class that I loved, which, 999 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 4: by the way, like both of these ones that mentioned spin, 1000 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 4: it was like kind of just a fluke, nice little 1001 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 4: thing there, so some serendipity, but the instructor moved away 1002 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 4: and the gym has not hired a replacement. Lastly, I 1003 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 4: cannot seem, for the life of me to wake up 1004 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 4: early for my own enjoyment, such as to meditate or 1005 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 4: write in a Gratitude Journal. I wake up with barely 1006 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,439 Speaker 4: enough time to prepare for my workday and always seem 1007 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 4: to rush out the door five minutes late. It just 1008 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 4: seems like an overall lack of diligence and structure. Do 1009 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 4: you have any tools or vice that might help me 1010 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 4: in my journey? Sincerely, very tired person, Brittany, Brittany, Hi, Brittany, 1011 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:05,319 Speaker 4: Hi Brittany. 1012 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 3: I love the way you spell it, by the way, 1013 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 3: Oh thank you.

I don't know that's 1015 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 1: the thing. 1016 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 5: And I have energy throughout the day, but when it 1017 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 5: comes to the motivation in the morning to get started 1018 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 5: or the motivation after I've been working seven and a 1019 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 5: half hours, I don't have it in me to like 1020 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 5: I make excuses for myself as to why I don't 1021 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 5: want to wake up whenever my first alarm goes off 1022 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:41,320 Speaker 5: or I end up you know, after work, I just 1023 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 5: don't want to stop. I don't want to stop at 1024 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 5: the gym. I want to get home. I want to 1025 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 5: cook dinner. I want to chill in my pj's and 1026 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 5: watch TV. And I really want some I want to 1027 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 5: see these changes in theory, but the action is just 1028 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 5: I've had a hard time with that motivation. 1029 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:00,840 Speaker 3: To get there. 1030 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 6: Do you feel like you're getting enough sleep or you 1031 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 6: feel like you're not sleeping enough? Also, I feel. 1032 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 5: Like in general, once I get going, I'm awake, So 1033 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,879 Speaker 5: I don't feel like I'm overall like tired during the day. 1034 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 5: It's just when it gets to about ten thirty, I'm done. 1035 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 6: Do you work at an office or do you work 1036 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 6: from home? Like, do you have the ability to like 1037 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 6: go work out in the middle of the day maybe 1038 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:24,799 Speaker 6: since you have more energy throughout the day. 1039 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:28,600 Speaker 5: So my work day is generally so I get to 1040 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 5: work at seven thirty. I do go into the office 1041 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 5: most days of the week. I do have some flexibility 1042 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 5: to work from home, but I generally at work do 1043 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 5: not have any I try to limit distractions as much 1044 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 5: as possible. 1045 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 3: So I think it's like for me, it's it's about 1046 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 3: building habits that you're going to do, regardless of when 1047 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,359 Speaker 3: it's comfortable or convenient, and just putting those into your 1048 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,400 Speaker 3: day or week so that they're so consistent that you 1049 00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 3: show up when you don't want to. 1050 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 6: If you have more energy throughout the day and you 1051 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 6: have the possibility of working even if it's just two 1052 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:09,760 Speaker 6: days a week from home and you are already getting 1053 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 6: dressed in like ath leisure. You can pump from your 1054 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 6: meeting and then work out from home like in some 1055 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 6: Body with body Weight, and you're not you're not taking 1056 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 6: too much time away from you from your work. At 1057 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 6: least you're getting in a few workouts a week. I 1058 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 6: feel like if you're already setting your goal on this 1059 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:32,919 Speaker 6: mountain of like I got to work out every day, 1060 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 6: you're already going to set yourself up for failure. So 1061 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,799 Speaker 6: I think finding some opportunities where you could work out 1062 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 6: twenty to thirty minutes, even if it's two to three 1063 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 6: times a week. Maybe it's maybe it's the two days 1064 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 6: you work from home and one like maybe it's Saturday 1065 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 6: or Sunday. And maybe you and your husband it could 1066 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,479 Speaker 6: work out on the weekend together since you're both off, 1067 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 6: and that might be something fun that you can do 1068 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,479 Speaker 6: and don't let the workout have to be a chore 1069 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 6: a task. Maybe you guys can go for a hike 1070 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,359 Speaker 6: or a walk. Maybe you can just do something it's fun. 1071 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 6: And I don't know if you like to dance, like do 1072 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 6: dance cardio. Do something that brings you a little bit 1073 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 6: of joy even as you make it a task. 1074 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 2: And I would also say, just get in the habit 1075 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 2: of like the exercise and lends itself to your life 1076 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,879 Speaker 2: in multiple ways. It's not just about the exercise. It's 1077 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 2: about your mental clarity. It's about getting rid of any cortisol. 1078 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:23,839 Speaker 2: You don't want to overdo it, but you do want 1079 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 2: to exert yourself to a degree every day. Like I 1080 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 2: would say to get up every morning and just walk 1081 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 2: for twenty minutes, Go power walking outside your neighborhood for 1082 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 2: twenty minutes, no matter what, you know what I mean, 1083 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 2: so that your body is moving, your body is getting energized, 1084 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:40,439 Speaker 2: and you're like creating more energy for yourself throughout the day. 1085 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 2: Like exercise is so related. If I don't exercise, I 1086 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 2: have no energy. That's why you have no energy. 1087 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 6: You know. 1088 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:48,600 Speaker 2: If I go for three or four days without working out, 1089 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 2: I feel it. Even when I'm hungover or I've just 1090 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 2: been on a flight and I've been performing, I always 1091 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,440 Speaker 2: get up and make myself sweat a little because it 1092 00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 2: just makes me feel so much better and have so 1093 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 2: much more mental claes. So I would try to incorporate, 1094 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 2: like as far as working out and doing a workout 1095 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 2: with weights and stuff, or you know, you can get 1096 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 2: the Peloton app, you know, and do that at your house. 1097 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 5: I don't have. 1098 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 3: I was gonna shamelessly plug that. I know. 1099 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:12,840 Speaker 1: Well, that's why I had to. 1100 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,280 Speaker 3: Do cycling instructor your cycling instructions. 1101 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 2: I'm a cycling instructor on Peloton now too. That was 1102 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:20,759 Speaker 2: our big announcement for today. I'm to announce that now 1103 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not, I'm not. 1104 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:23,440 Speaker 3: I'm just fuing. 1105 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 2: But if you do get the you can get the 1106 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 2: Peloton app and do these like they have five minute 1107 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 2: apps classes, they have ten minutes, you could do forty minutes, pilates, 1108 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 2: you can do like you just make a commitment and 1109 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 2: do it with your husband. If you think that's a 1110 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 2: good partnership. Do you think that is or would you 1111 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 2: rather exercise alone? 1112 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 3: I think that it's potential. 1113 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,240 Speaker 5: Like there have been times intermittently that we've both woken 1114 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 5: up early and gone for a walk around our neighborhood together, 1115 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 5: and we do enjoy walking, but it's for some reason 1116 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 5: the mornings, my alarm clock will go off several times 1117 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 5: and I'll just keep doing it until I absolutely have 1118 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 5: to get up and going. And typically I think if 1119 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:03,319 Speaker 5: I were to walk every morning, i'd have to get 1120 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 5: up at five and go. And I feel like that's 1121 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:07,919 Speaker 5: a normal time for people to get up and go. 1122 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 5: But for some reason, in the mornings, my mind is 1123 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 5: just like this isn't. I have a hard time I 1124 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 5: guess in the morning's deciding that that's a that's a priority. 1125 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 2: Right, But it's it is a priority because you're calling 1126 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 2: into a podcast to talk about it, so you're gonna 1127 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 2: make it a priority. 1128 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 1: What do you use? 1129 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:28,239 Speaker 2: What's that? Is that a green like exercise ball that's 1130 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 2: behind you? It is so fucking use it. I mean, 1131 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,239 Speaker 2: first of all, what kind of caffeine do you take 1132 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 2: to get up in the morning? 1133 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 1: Do you drink caffeine? 1134 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,160 Speaker 5: I drink a cup of coffee about twenty minutes after 1135 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 5: I get up. I make sure I drink some water first, 1136 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,400 Speaker 5: or at least a few SIPs of water before I 1137 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 5: go in on the coffee. 1138 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 2: But I do well, that's healthy, that's a healthy habit. 1139 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 2: But why do you really have to wake up at 1140 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 2: five to exercise? What time do you have to be 1141 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:51,399 Speaker 2: at work? 1142 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 5: So I try to get to work by seven thirty. 1143 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 5: It usually ends up walking in around seven forty five 1144 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,279 Speaker 5: with traffic and every thing, but I try to get 1145 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 5: I try to leave my house by six forty five. 1146 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 2: And then okay, well that is pretty early. That's probably 1147 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 2: why you're fucking tired. I mean, most people go to 1148 00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:12,399 Speaker 2: work around nine for an office job, and you get 1149 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 2: done at five pm or six pm. 1150 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 5: I typically try to leave work by four thirty, try 1151 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,919 Speaker 5: and skip some of the traffic, and then I'll get 1152 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 5: home usually around five thirty five forty. 1153 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: I know, for me, I have to work out in 1154 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:28,399 Speaker 1: the mornings to really get it done. 1155 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,799 Speaker 2: So it really you have to kind of experiment with 1156 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,640 Speaker 2: your personality because it sounds schedule wise like it might 1157 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:36,120 Speaker 2: be more prudent for you to get home from work 1158 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 2: and then go for a power walk around five. It's 1159 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:41,200 Speaker 2: the perfect time. It's before dinner, you know what I mean. 1160 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 1: You get home, go for a walk, reflect on the 1161 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 1: day's activities, and then figure out a workout that you 1162 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: could do like two or three days a week. But 1163 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 1: I think it's important a health wise to keep your 1164 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,120 Speaker 1: body moving every single day, you know what I mean. 1165 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: And then it becomes kind of addictive. 1166 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 2: In a great way, Like there's you know, you don't 1167 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:00,719 Speaker 2: want to be exercising for three hours day and no 1168 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 2: one's suggesting that, but you need to pick a time 1169 00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 2: and commit to whatever time you think it's going to 1170 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 2: be more feasible to actually follow through. And maybe that 1171 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 2: is when you get home from work, if it's not 1172 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 2: during your lunch break, or if it's not at five 1173 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,360 Speaker 2: in the morning, it's dark at five in the morning, 1174 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 2: So like, I can understand why that would be hard 1175 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 2: to get up and start exercising. So let's figure out 1176 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 2: what time makes the most sense for you. What time 1177 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 2: do you think that is. 1178 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 5: Historically, I've definitely leaned towards you know, getting off work, 1179 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 5: stopping by the gym, doing whatever it is I do, 1180 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:37,160 Speaker 5: whether it be a group workout class or an elliptical staremaster, 1181 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 5: whatever it may be. Like I used to be really 1182 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 5: good about doing that, and then I think, just over 1183 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 5: the last few years, I've kind of lost my way 1184 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 5: in a gym, like I don't necessarily know what I 1185 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:53,480 Speaker 5: should be, like what I should be focusing on. I 1186 00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 5: kind of walk in and I'm like, Okay, what do 1187 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,280 Speaker 5: I want to do today? And then I spend twenty 1188 00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 5: minutes looking on Pinterest for workout to do at the 1189 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,879 Speaker 5: gym for this muscle group, and then I end up, 1190 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 5: you know, doing that for a while and I feel 1191 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 5: really good about it, but I guess I haven't been 1192 00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:14,919 Speaker 5: successful in making that an weekly like scheduled thing. 1193 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:16,640 Speaker 1: Okay, well you're gonna do that. Now. 1194 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:18,879 Speaker 2: You're gonna write it down that you're gonna exercise. You're 1195 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:21,319 Speaker 2: gonna do a workout three times a week, and you're 1196 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:23,839 Speaker 2: gonna do a nice walk, whether it's at the gym, 1197 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 2: whether it's the elliptical, three times a week, you're gonna 1198 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 2: do twenty minutes on an elliptical, on a treadmill or 1199 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:32,720 Speaker 2: a bike, whatever kind of cardio. And then three times 1200 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 2: a week, either they could be on the same day 1201 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,360 Speaker 2: or whatever, you're gonna do a class. You could do 1202 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 2: a pilates class, you could do weight training class. You 1203 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 2: write it down. I am going to commit to this, 1204 00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 2: and every single morning you're writing it down and keeping 1205 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 2: a diary of what you're doing so that you're accountable. 1206 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 2: And if your husband decides to come along for the 1207 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 2: ride or can join you in any of those activities, great, 1208 00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 2: But I think you should go from work, commit to 1209 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,279 Speaker 2: three days a week that you're gonna leave work and. 1210 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 1: Go straight to the gym.
