And then second of all, here's the thing. 103 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: What are we doing at the meeting? Like are we 104 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: are we sitting down or we like at our production meeting, 105 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: like looking at the graphics, looking at the videos, like 106 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: talking about storylines for the games or for where today 107 00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: we talked about do we want to add a pocket? 108 00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: We doing with the butt?

Yeah, I don't need 110 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: to like after after or maybe before I think there's 111 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: fill in the blanket kind of what is your workplace 112 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: environment overall? Like it like a I work at like 113 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: a very fun, young sort of like loosey goosey kind 114 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: of place, and there's a time and a place, or 115 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 1: is like if you're in corporate America, that's very like stiff. 116 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: Yet now, I don't think we should be talking about 117 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: your love life. It just depends on like what your 118 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: vibe is, because think about our jobs. We talk about 119 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: everything at our jobs, like with the people we work 120 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: with because we're on the road with them, Like they 121 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: know everything about my life. They know more than they 122 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: probably should know about my life. So I think it 123 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: depends on your workplace environment. If it's serious and buttoned up, 124 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,919 Speaker 1: then keep the personal stuff out of the building for 125 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: the happy hour conversations. But if it's kind of light 126 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: and fun. Also, it also depends on how much the 127 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: person shares where you're like, hey, we don't need to 128 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: know all that.

No one asked for that. 130 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: That is inappropriato and go straight to HR. But also 131 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: to know your role by the way, like you know 132 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: what I mean? 133 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, no role?

But my dad told 160 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: me this, especially especially I don't know if this is 161 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: a sports broadcasting question or not.

And then we're like, oh my god, 339 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: puppy yoga. So we ran over there and we were 340 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: disrupting the class, I'm sure, but we sat with the puppies. 341 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: They were so cute, which, of course then I want 342 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: to take one home, and I'm like, I forget how 343 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: hard puppies are. Probably are like newborns, like waking up 344 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: every few hours. Yeah, like a two year old, chewing 345 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: on everything. Anonymous, I'm a dog mom, yay, in my 346 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: mid thirties with a busy career, not seeing anyone, not 347 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: sure where to meet good guys these days, but I 348 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: am lucky to have a tight knit knit group of 349 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: girlfriends who are all married and most have kids. I'm 350 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: getting more sad with each year that I'm always at 351 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: these dinner's, birthday parties, weddings alone. How do you to 352 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: remind yourselves to be grateful for all the good in 353 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: your lives, even if even if it's not what you 354 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: pictured or not quite where you want to be? All well, 355 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: first of all, anonymous, you are exactly where you're supposed 356 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 1: to be. As I always say, I have taken a 357 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 1: journey that has wandered down some dark alleys, and I 358 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: could go back and say, oh, I wish I wouldn't 359 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: have done that. I wish I wouldn't have done that, 360 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: But then it wouldn't have led me to where I 361 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: am now. I wouldn't have the perspective that I have. 362 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have the appreciation that I have. I have 363 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: a couple good girlfriends that are older than I am, 364 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: and some that are younger and are not married, and 365 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: I always say to them They're like, well, I know, 366 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: but I'm not even married. I'm like, shit, girl, I'm 367 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 1: married twice. How'd that work out? So don't put this 368 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,719 Speaker 1: assignment on your life, like oh, I'm supposed to be 369 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: married or I'm supposed to have kids. You know, we 370 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: always talk about it, and you always emphasize to everyone 371 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: if you can freeze your eggs, if you can, you know, 372 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: or your employment allows you to that, if that's something 373 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: that you want to do down the road. But I 374 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: think that there's just and hopefully, I don't know. I 375 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: think it's getting better. I don't feel like society puts 376 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: so much pressure on women anymore. Where it's like you 377 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: have to depending on where you live. I think in 378 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: the South, Steve always talks about that it's a little 379 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: bit different, like you're supposed to be married by the 380 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: time you're twenty two years old and have kids and whatever. 381 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 2: But I don't know. 382 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,719 Speaker 1: I think there's a greater acceptance, which thank God that 383 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: there isn't this timeline that's perfect for everyone. So Anonymous, 384 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: I would say to you, you are exactly where you're 385 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: supposed to be. And the more pressure you put on 386 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: yourself to think that you need to be married or 387 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: have kids, the probably harder it's going to be because 388 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: you're pressing and then every date you go on, you're 389 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: expecting this guy to be the one and if he's not, 390 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: then you're disappointed. 391 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 2: So I don't know. 392 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 1: I would say, take a deep breath and just know that, 393 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: like you're in your mid thirties, sister, you are nice, young, young, 394 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: Go live that light.

I'm glad that I have 397 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 1: had the path that I've had, But mid thirties is 398 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: very young.
