For some reason Texas. 391 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: There are other states that are much worse, but like Texas, 392 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: to me feels like there's hope in Texas. Like at 393 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: some point Texas could flip. There's always people trying to 394 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: flip Texas. There are pockets of Texas that are very democratic, 395 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: just like there are in Florida. There are pockets. And 396 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 1: every time I go to Florida, I have a great 397 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: time and I go I should come back here, But 398 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: I just really hate what that state represents. It's another 399 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: open carry state, burning books. I just find that all 400 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: to be so ick. 401 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is hard. I grew up going to Florida. 402 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 3: That's like where we vacationed because Mississippi, Alabama, Florida.

But 407 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,360 Speaker 1: I can't imagine for what because that's a specific area. 408 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 2: Is that on the east coast of Florida. 409 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 3: It's on the Gulf of America. 410 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 6: It's on the maps now, we were flying I hear 411 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 6: the other day and it's on Google. 412 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 4: I just wanted to cry. It's on the map. 413 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's on the golf we'll call it side. 414 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 2: Well, you can enjoy that and you can enjoy your 415 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 2: snakes down there too. 416 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 3: Well you said no, thank you, no, thank you Florida. 417 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: I mean, while watch, I'll add like four cities in 418 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: Florida next week.

But do you ever find this 421 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: happening when you make it like a declaration or a proclamation, 422 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: you end up doing the exact opposite, Like anytime you 423 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: publicly declare something. That's why I'm so scared that one 424 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: day I'll get married, because I've spoken so much about 425 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: refusing to get married. 426 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, it might be coming for you. 427 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 2: Do you ever do that? Do you ever make like 428 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: declarations and then it happens or you do the opposite. 429 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 3: I feel like you make a declaration and then yeah, 430 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 3: the universe is like, but are you sure? Yeah? 431 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 2: Right right, But it's testing you. 432 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 3: I don't know. I know people like hate flip flopping 433 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 3: and stuff, but sometimes we like grow and get a 434 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 3: different perspective. Or you're like, well, actually, let me maybe 435 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 3: try this and then yay, or that wasn't for me. 436 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:51,239 Speaker 3: I tried it. 437 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, tell me what you are surprised about in 438 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 1: your role as mother? 439 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 2: What surprises you about you as a mother. 440 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 3: Oh, that's a really good question. I think it has 441 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 3: to do more maybe with my relationship, like with Charlie 442 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 3: as a parent as well. And he sort of is 443 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 3: like the one where like our son recently got everyone 444 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 3: has big, like crazy curly hair right now, but our 445 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 3: son is really into jiu jitsu. So our son got 446 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 3: his head shaved and it can like it was getting 447 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 3: pinned when he was trying to spar whatever they do, 448 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 3: and he got it buzzed, and he got it buzzed 449 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 3: way too short, and he was like, I'm like bald, 450 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 3: Like this isn't a buzz this is like I'm bald. 451 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 3: And he was like, please don't make me, Please don't 452 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 3: make me go to school tomorrow. And my take is like, and. 453 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 2: Boys haircuts are so important right now. Like they have 454 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,959 Speaker 2: that thing where they all were like when was it 455 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,920 Speaker 2: they're getting like perms? Yeah, yeah, and then. 456 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: They all have this thing where they throw their hair 457 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: up like like shake it. No, it just looks crazy, 458 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: but they all have to have that haircut. And then yeah, 459 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 1: all my friends who have teenage boys, it's a serious situation. 460 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, but really the first time I've heard a story 461 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 2: like this. 462 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 3: Yeah. So Russell was like, I'm going to do something 463 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 3: different because I want it for like myself, which is great. 464 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 3: I'm like I love that autonomy doing what works for you. 465 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 3: And then it got just like like skin head shaved, 466 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 3: you know, and he was like, I cannot go to 467 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 3: school today like this, and I was like, I don't know, 468 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 3: like suck it up. Like if it's fucking hard to 469 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 3: be a person, sometimes you know, and Charlie was like, 470 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 3: please don't make him go to school, and then I 471 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 3: was like, oh, I need to soften, Like I am 472 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 3: a little bit more of the like no buck up, like, 473 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 3: but that's how I am with myself, you know, and 474 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 3: Charlie's better. I think it sometimes just being like it's okay, 475 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 3: okay to miss a day of school. 476 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 2: And so did you end up letting him stay home? Yeah, yeah, 477 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: which is fine. 478 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 479 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 1: I think it's interesting the way that every like people parent. 480 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: And now I don't mean just people who have kids, 481 00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: because obviously there's plenty of people out there who are 482 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: a parenting role in other people's lives. But like, the 483 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: things you would do for yourself are different than the 484 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: things that the Sanders you set for others, you know, 485 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: just like you would tolerate certain behaviors and say relationships 486 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: romantic relationships that you would never tolerate for like your 487 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: sister or your cousin or your best friend. 488 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 2: You know, Like sometimes we treat ourselves so harshly. It's 489 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 2: not equal to the way that we want other people 490 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 2: to go through the world. 491 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 3: Yes, I mean I do let him speak to me 492 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 3: in ways that like if anyone else spoke to me 493 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,719 Speaker 3: in that way. And sometimes he will say something to 494 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 3: me and I will look at Charlie like and he's like, 495 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 3: let it go, let it go. 496 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 6: And I'm like, especially growing up in the South, it's like, 497 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 6: you respect your elders, you don't talk to adults in 498 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 6: a certain way. 499 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 3: Smacked, you know.

Yeah, And I was talking about coming 533 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 3: up as a woman though, like in that time and 534 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 3: the way that like we loved watching like Paris Hilton 535 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: and Nicole Richie like burn their lives to the ground 536 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 3: on reality television and Anna Nicole Smith and like this 537 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 3: is what we were watching, and we just like loved 538 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 3: watching these women like destroy themselves for us. You know, 539 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 3: and it was very not like we're pulling each other 540 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 3: up and we're supporting each other, like there's only one 541 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 3: place at the table, bitch, so get the fuck out 542 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 3: of my way. Yes, and I do feel that there's 543 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 3: been a shift in that. And I don't think it's 544 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 3: just because we're getting older and we realize that there's 545 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,719 Speaker 3: more space. I think women now, young women too, and 546 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 3: girls are like, there's as much space for us as 547 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 3: anyone else, and if there's not, we'll build our own table. 548 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: As they say, it's been like this for so long, 549 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: But why are we all finding out about it at 550 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: the It feels like it's there's like a cascade of 551 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: not like you know what I mean that we're all 552 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 1: finding out about it at the same time. But this 553 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 1: has been happening for eons and hundreds of years, yet 554 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: this feels like a turning point. It's like a dump 555 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: of information where women can't look away, and women have 556 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: finally looked at each other and been like, we're safe together. 557 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 2: We're safer together than we are apart. 558 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: And this whole divisiveness what you're talking about, there's only 559 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 1: room for one person at the table. 560 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 2: I could totally relate to that as a. 561 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: Stand up comedian coming up like twenty five years ago 562 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: in comedy, it was like, there was never two girls. 563 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 1: There's always one girl, you know, And I was just 564 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: like what you know, and women were out to get 565 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: other women. And there's definitely has been a shift because 566 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: there's been an understanding now that like men are not trustworthy. 567 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: Obviously not all men. I have to say this all 568 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: the time because they're so sensitive, but you know, women 569 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 1: are now understanding that the tide rises together, like it's 570 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: better for us to stick together. So I wonder what 571 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: that timing is, you know, like, what was the event 572 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: that kind of like broke the damn of this knowledge? 573 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: Or is this every generation? And is it you get 574 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: to a certain age and you realize, oh god, we've 575 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 1: been fed all this garbage. 576 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: You know. Is it an age thing or is it 577 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 2: something that's actually happening right now? 578 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 3: Right? Yeah? I mean the Me Too movement was such 579 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 3: a big like cultural. 580 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then the repercussion of that was overturning Roe v. 581 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: Wade, Right, that was their answer to that, Like you 582 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: want to bitch and moan about being sexually assaulted, then 583 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: we're going to take away your rights yep, so I 584 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: guess we're seeing it in real time. 585 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 2: I feel like our generator, how old are you. 586 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 3: I'm forty six, if you don't mind my ask, Now. 587 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 2: I'm fifty one. So I just feel like in our generation, 588 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 2: we've been through so much and it's not like, you know, 589 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 2: I don't have a wonderful life and you have a 590 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 2: wonderful life, and you have a wonderful life. But it's 591 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: just been so much of like, oh, it was very 592 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 2: idyllic being young and unknowledgeable. It was kind of nice 593 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 2: to not know about all of this. 594 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: And then with the technology age, you know, we went 595 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: from like you know, we were there when there was 596 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: no compute and they're a no cell phone, right, I 597 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: have my cell phone number from when I was nineteen 598 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 1: years old. 599 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 2: I have the same number. That's why I'm cell phone. Yeah, happened. 600 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 2: And then now we're dealing with we're at the outset 601 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,439 Speaker 2: of AI and you're like, we have to deal with 602 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 2: another whole major shift. So it's a lot for us. 603 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: And I wonder if every generation feels this way, because 604 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: certainly women in the fifties and sixties, if they were 605 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: as frustrated, well, the fifties, more forties and fifties. If 606 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: they were as frustrated as we are, they surely didn't 607 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: tell anybody about it or get organized yeah about it? 608 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean yeah, I guess there's a question of 609 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 3: like safety and also like how it like the patriarchal 610 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 3: ideas like infuse themselves into your own brains, so you 611 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 3: can't even see what's going on when you're so inside 612 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 3: of the system, you know. But my grandmother is ninety 613 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 3: nine years old. She lives in Louisianah. And when I 614 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 3: do get overwhelmed with like no one's ever had it 615 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 3: as bad as me, I'm like, oh, right, the depression 616 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 3: that was bad. That was bad, you know, going to 617 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,959 Speaker 3: war and when people were like actually having to go 618 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 3: to war. And it's ue to like pull back and 619 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 3: get a little bit of perspective and be like, there 620 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 3: have always been issues, but maybe we just know about 621 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 3: them more now because everyone has their own little news 622 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,640 Speaker 3: broadcasting system in their pocket telling you the worst things 623 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 3: that are happening at every moment all the time. 624 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 2: Although so there's also so much more history and knowledge 625 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 2: available to right because of the technology, and we have 626 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 2: the context, and it's not like. 627 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: No, I don't want to imply that there weren't women 628 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: doing things.

Almost a year later, 821 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 6: I'm finally feeling more like myself. I'm motivated to date 822 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 6: with intention, but I also know I get infatuated easily, 823 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 6: so I'm easing back in by getting on hinge and 824 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 6: going out more. I'm in a very unfulfilling phase of 825 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 6: my life right now. 826 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 3: I'm living at home. 827 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 6: With my parents, working part time as a barista, and 828 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 6: trying to figure out where I belong career wise as 829 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,399 Speaker 6: an ADHD millennial. I know I'm still young, but I'm 830 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 6: scared of ending up in a job I hate, and 831 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 6: I'm equally scared of getting stuck in my hometown where 832 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 6: I have zero desire to settle. So right now, I 833 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:50,839 Speaker 6: just feel stuck. I want to get back into dating 834 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 6: and being social, but it feels hard to do that 835 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 6: authentically from where I'm currently at. So my question for 836 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 6: Chelsea is, how do you tell the difference between fear 837 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 6: and intuition when you're crazy being a big life change, 838 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 6: and more specifically, am I avoiding dating in my hometown 839 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 6: because I'm afraid it will root me here? Or is 840 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 6: my intuition telling me that this isn't the right environment 841 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 6: or the right version of myself to build a relationship 842 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 6: from Kevin? 843 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 7: Hi? 844 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 2: Hi, Kevin, Hi? 845 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 7: How's it going good? 846 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 2: How are you?

Like I those 852 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,839 Speaker 1: two words don't correlate for me. But I get what 853 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 1: you're saying, but it's. 854 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 7: Hard for me to figure out the word. 855 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay, So well, I mean it sounds like 856 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,280 Speaker 1: you're in a transitional phase in your life. 857 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 7: Yes.

And 861 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 8: I've just I've already done so many different things before. 862 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 8: So I's just like, do I want to go back 863 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 8: to do what I know, go with what I know, 864 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 8: or do I need to really like put myself out 865 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 8: there and do something drastically different. 866 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 7: I don't know. 867 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, first things first, Ay, I'm glad you're how 868 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:01,879 Speaker 1: be in safe and you live with your parents because 869 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,720 Speaker 1: everything's fine. Like now you have that's a great sound, 870 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,879 Speaker 1: like jumping off board. You know, like that's good, that's 871 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 1: a good thing exactly. Yeah, from what you said about 872 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 1: being infatuated with boys since you were five years old, 873 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: I understand what you mean by infatuation, and I think 874 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 1: if you recognize that about yourself, this is a perfect 875 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 1: moment for you to take a break from boys when 876 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: you are in a transitional phase. It's like kind of 877 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,799 Speaker 1: like putting like a gasoline on a fire, even though 878 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: you're not in a fire. It's like you're adding something 879 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: to the mix that doesn't need to be in the 880 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:30,359 Speaker 1: mix right now. 881 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. 882 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: You should take this time, reclaim this time, use it 883 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: to focus on yourself. Use this time where you're not 884 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:38,920 Speaker 1: paying rent and you're figuring out what you're gonna do 885 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: career wise and professionally, and just take that all in 886 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 1: and like you're so lucky you get to live with 887 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 1: your parents during this time. That can help you financially. 888 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: You don't have to pay rent. You can say, you know, 889 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,959 Speaker 1: you're in, You're safe again. Like these are all good 890 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,879 Speaker 1: things to like form a foundation for the next step 891 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,240 Speaker 1: that you do take. So I think you should figure 892 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 1: out what makes you feel excited about the future, Like 893 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: what are the job options for you? 894 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 2: What have you done that you've loved, not just like 895 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 2: to get by, what actually like inspires you. 896 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's so hard. 897 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 8: I feel like there's so many different things that inspire me, 898 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 8: and I love to do I like to do different things. 899 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 7: I like to keep it interesting.

I think that people tell themselves because people 1096 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 1: get so worried about being stuck or like what if 1097 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 1: I'm I remember when I was waiting tables, before like 1098 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,799 Speaker 1: I became successful, I would just think, what if I'm 1099 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 1: a waitress forever? What if I'm a waitress forever? What 1100 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 1: if I'm a waitress when I'm forty?

What's going to happen then, 1103 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 1: and it's like that narrative it becomes kind of like 1104 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:36,320 Speaker 1: like pathological, and then you're telling yourself this like negative 1105 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: story for no reason. There's no proof that you're going 1106 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 1: to be doing this forever, just like there's no proof 1107 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 1: that you're not going to be doing this forever. 1108 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 2: It could go anyway. 1109 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,879 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's like, yeah, well, our next color is dominique. 1110 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 6: And she says, Dear Chelsea, I'm twenty nine and I'm 1111 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,839 Speaker 6: writing from a big moment of transition, and this next 1112 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 6: line is just like sort of weird coincidence. But she says, 1113 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,800 Speaker 6: I've spent the last nine years building a career in events. 1114 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 6: I'm good at it, I've worked hard, and on paper 1115 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 6: it all makes sense. But lately I feel stalled, like 1116 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 6: I've reached the edge of what this version of my 1117 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 6: life can offer unless I either expand it radically or 1118 00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 6: walk away. At the same time, I'm newly married and 1119 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 6: staring down a parallel question that feels just as existential. 1120 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,280 Speaker 6: Do I double down on an ambition or do I step 1121 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 6: into motherhood knowing that either choice reshapes everything. How do 1122 00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 6: you know when it's time to outgrow a life you 1123 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 6: built with care instead of clinging to it because it's familiar. 1124 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 6: And how do you make big life decisions when there's 1125 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,320 Speaker 6: no obvious right order to do things? 1126 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 1: Dominique, OOHI complex, Hi Dominique.

Sometimes you are just kind of like 1155 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 1: hunkering down with what you have, Like there's a planting 1156 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 1: and there's a harvest, and sometimes you're planting and then 1157 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 1: sometimes you're harvesting. And that's like you don't always have 1158 00:48:58,160 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 1: to feel like we live in the society that makes 1159 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,480 Speaker 1: us feel like we have to run around in circles 1160 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,839 Speaker 1: to get shit done or to be productive. But there 1161 00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: is a lot of strength in just enjoying what you've built. 1162 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 1: It sounds like you've built a pretty great business for yourself. 1163 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,919 Speaker 1: So and I guess my next question is why would 1164 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,359 Speaker 1: becoming a mother? Why is there a choice between the two? 1165 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:19,840 Speaker 1: Do you think that you can't do both? 1166 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 5: I think it's definitely harder, and I definitely you know, 1167 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 5: when I choose to become a mother, it's like I 1168 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 5: want to be all into that. So I feel like 1169 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:30,480 Speaker 5: what I'm building in my career will definitely take the 1170 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 5: back seat to like, you know, you know, growing a 1171 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 5: person and being involved in their lives and every aspect 1172 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 5: of that. So maybe not it's one of the other, 1173 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 5: but one will definitely take a back seat, you know 1174 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 5: what I'm saying. 1175 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 2: So, well, then we should definitely introduce her to the 1176 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:44,919 Speaker 2: woman we were just talking to, because she can run 1177 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,439 Speaker 2: your she can help run your business. I don't want you, 1178 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 2: as a woman, and as a black woman, to build 1179 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 2: a business and then just give up on it. 1180 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: I just don't want that for you. I want you 1181 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 1: to be able to do all of this, and you can. 1182 00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:58,359 Speaker 1: You can do all of this, and you can start 1183 00:49:58,360 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 1: a family and do that too. 1184 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're right, like one thing takes a back 1185 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 3: seat for a little while. Like when you're pregnant, you 1186 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 3: can do both things pretty easily, but then when the 1187 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 3: baby comes out, you normally want like some time to 1188 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,719 Speaker 3: like nest and be home. But then also when I 1189 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 3: had a newborn, I was like, oh my god, is 1190 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,359 Speaker 3: this who I am? A mother? I don't only want 1191 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 3: to be a mother. I still want to be an actor. 1192 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 3: I still want to be a professional, you know, and 1193 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,560 Speaker 3: then I got a chance to do that again. So yeah, 1194 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:28,839 Speaker 3: I think it's true. There's seasons to things, but there's 1195 00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:29,800 Speaker 3: space for everything. 1196 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, there is space for everything. 1197 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:33,359 Speaker 1: And I think I would hate for you to have 1198 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 1: a child go one hundred percent into that and then go, 1199 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:37,239 Speaker 1: I can't believe I don't have. 1200 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 2: My business anymore, you know. 1201 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,279 Speaker 1: But when you do need some time to yourself, when 1202 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: you do need some different identity other than just mom 1203 00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:47,880 Speaker 1: or wife, you're going to look back and be like, what, 1204 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,280 Speaker 1: my god, you had a robust business, Like, please don't 1205 00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:53,719 Speaker 1: give up on that aspect, Like I think that is 1206 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 1: really like the paramount issue here. You build something that 1207 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 1: you're proud of, and we are going to put you 1208 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:00,880 Speaker 1: in touch with this other woman we just spoke to. 1209 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:02,799 Speaker 1: Whether it's a match or not, you're going to find 1210 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 1: somebody to help you run your business so that you 1211 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 1: can get ready for the next phase of your life, 1212 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:09,720 Speaker 1: which is motherhood whenever you feel that's ready. 1213 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:11,880 Speaker 2: But you have to find like kind of a business partner, 1214 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:12,399 Speaker 2: and they. 1215 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,040 Speaker 1: Don't have to be like fifty to fifty partner, because 1216 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 1: you did build this business so it's yours.

We're the closest, two hours away. 1299 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:11,680 Speaker 6: We see each other fairly frequently, but with kids and 1300 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 6: activities and lives, it's tough. It became clear years ago 1301 00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 6: that my mother in law's health was declining. Specifically, we 1302 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:20,360 Speaker 6: were noticing signs of what we were concerned could be 1303 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 6: a dementia forgetting things, using the wrong names, for people, 1304 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,800 Speaker 6: walking into the wrong house. She began having issues driving, 1305 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:29,359 Speaker 6: hitting mailboxes and curbs, and then about two years ago, 1306 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 6: she totalled her car by hitting a guardrail. Luckily, no 1307 00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,120 Speaker 6: one was hurt, while we all knew something was happening. 1308 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 6: My father in law has been in denial. He constantly 1309 00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,799 Speaker 6: downplays her symptoms and even refused to stop her from 1310 00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:43,879 Speaker 6: driving for almost a year following the accident. Thankfully she's 1311 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 6: now stopped. Things have gotten much worse this past year, 1312 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 6: to the point where he can't deny something is wrong. 1313 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 6: She falls regularly, she can't really walk on her own 1314 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 6: without help. Every time we see her, she's got a 1315 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 6: bruiser a scrape from a fall, and she can never 1316 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,319 Speaker 6: tell us how it happened, and he only sometimes can. 1317 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:00,919 Speaker 6: We've all come to terms the fact that she has 1318 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:04,719 Speaker 6: somewhat some advanced neurologic diagnosis, but we don't know what 1319 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,359 Speaker 6: because he hasn't taken her to the doctor. This has 1320 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,480 Speaker 6: been sad to acknowledged, but our biggest concern is both 1321 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 6: their safety. Any advice on how to push for acceptance 1322 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 6: and help with a boomer who's very unwilling to acknowledge 1323 00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:15,600 Speaker 6: or accept help. 1324 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:17,840 Speaker 2: Jody, Yeah, you have to take her to the doctor yourself. 1325 00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:19,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to get in there and take her 1326 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 1: to the doctor and intervene. He's not going to do it. 1327 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:25,239 Speaker 1: He's in denial, and man are useless. So you have 1328 00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:26,960 Speaker 1: to go in and do that. You have to get 1329 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 1: your brothers together in solidarity or do it yourself. But 1330 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 1: take her to the doctor for a diagnosis. 1331 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:31,960 Speaker 2: That's it. 1332 00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 1: And like, sorry, Dad, you're not acting responsibly right now 1333 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:37,480 Speaker 1: and you're in denial and this is dangerous now where 1334 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm concerned about my mother's safety and I'm concerned about 1335 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 1: your safety. 1336 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, And I would also potentially reach out to either 1337 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,440 Speaker 6: an elder law attorney or someone who works in like 1338 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:48,080 Speaker 6: health care for the aging, because they would be able 1339 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 6: to give you some tools and stuff. In your state, 1340 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 6: it may be time for like a guardianship or conservatorship 1341 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 6: something like that. 1342 00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:55,360 Speaker 3: Maybe time for them to move to like. 1343 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:58,160 Speaker 6: An assisted living where you know he can have some 1344 00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 6: help with activities of daily living, can have a lot 1345 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 6: more help whatever they need. But definitely start reaching out 1346 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 6: to someone in your community who is able to give 1347 00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 6: you some answers about laws and regulations and things in 1348 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:09,520 Speaker 6: your state. 1349 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, but get the ball rolling on getting a diagnosis also, 1350 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:14,360 Speaker 1: Like that's first and foremost. 1351 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 2: Find out what the diagnosis is. 1352 00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 1: And then you have proof of a reason why they 1353 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:20,520 Speaker 1: need to move into an assisted living facility or a 1354 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 1: retirement community. But yeah, that's very common that people are 1355 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 1: in denial about their spouses. 1356 00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 3: Like decline, Yes, agreed, And if it's you, it's your 1357 00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 3: husband's mother and their three sons.
