No, just kidding, 22 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,119 Speaker 1: I'm going to start this. Okay, question of the day, 23 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: Question of the day. 24 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: Okay, I hate that game, as you all know, Okay, 25 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 2: here we go. What was the transition into being a 26 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 2: real adult, like for you living on your own for 27 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 2: the first time, managing your own finances. What advice do 28 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: you have for young people that are about to make 29 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: that transition themselves soon? 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: Wow? 31 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: First thing comes to mind is my father. 32 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: Oh tell me why. 33 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: Because I used to spend an entire paycheck on a 34 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 2: pair of shoes, and he said, Susan, I don't care 35 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: if you're not making good money, but every single time 36 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: you make money, you have to put a little bit away. 37 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: Oh see, you and I are so different. I first 38 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: of all, as everyone knows, I got married to my 39 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: husband when I was twenty years old in Pury, right, 40 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: So so for me being a real adult, I mean, 41 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: I went from college and I subsequently graduated, but at 42 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: the time I was married, I hadn't finished. And I 43 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: remember this sounds bizarre, but I was thinking about this 44 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 1: last night. When my husband and I got our first apartment, 45 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: I would just clean it top to bottom every day. 46 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: I loved going shopping like I love taking on all 47 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: those roles of an adult. Because you know, I didn't 48 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: cook at home. I still don't cook, but I tried 49 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: when I first got married to learn how to cook. 50 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: And I think when people for those of you who are, 51 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: you know, contemplating going out on your own, I think 52 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: Susan has a great point. You have to remember to 53 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: save and budget. That's a big one. That's just in 54 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 1: today's In today's world. 55 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: Kids are different today. I mean the advice that we 56 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 2: received and the advice that we give. I mean base 57 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 2: it's the same structure, you know, but they do things 58 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 2: way different today. Well, I think a lot of kids 59 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 2: live at home a lot longer than when you certainly 60 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 2: do so we do. But the advice you have to 61 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 2: realize where every penny goes. You have to I'm not 62 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: a budget kind of person. 63 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: Somebody, really, what was your first clue? 64 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 2: Look at how much you're making what you can afford 65 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 2: and still have luxuries in life and still be able 66 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 2: to do things. Don't don't be mortgage poor if you will. 67 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: But the first time out is like so exciting. 68 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: It is you know what, You're going to make mistakes. 69 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: You're gonna make mistakes, You're going to spend too much 70 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: on something and not have enough for something else. But 71 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: I really do think learning to budget the money you have, 72 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: whether you're working you know, twelve hours a day at 73 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: minimum wage, or you know you've lucked into some fabulous 74 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: career with a great salary. You still have to budget. 75 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: And if you want this, you know it's coming, maybe 76 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 2: wait a little longer, because you're always supposed to have 77 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: six months worth of rent or slash mortgage in the bank. 78 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: In case of I thought it was six months of 79 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: living expenses total, like food, electricity and all this stuff. 80 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 2: You can add all that up. They'll never leave. 81 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: I mean, Susan will be living at Susan would still 82 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: be living at home. 83 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 2: I tell my kids at a certain point after college 84 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: where they were still here, Okay, you have to pay rent. 85 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 2: They're like what I said, just you know, it wasn't 86 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 2: a lot. It was not a lot. And I kept 87 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 2: it in an envelope and then lest safe and when 88 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 2: they were ready to go, they go, Momma, are you 89 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 2: gonna help us out? You're gonna help us out. We're 90 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: getting their own place. I said, yeah, I have every 91 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: penny you ever gave me. My right son knew immediately 92 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: Christopher goes, what that's nothing like? 93 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: No shit? I think, you know, I think parents can 94 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: do a lot to help here too. I don't think 95 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: this is I think kids who have never had any 96 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: responsibilities or that kind of thing, they haven't. Like my 97 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: kids had cars that we gave them to drive, but 98 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 1: they had to help pay for the insurance. They had 99 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: to help pay for the gas because I think I'm signed, 100 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm saying no, I meant pay help pay 101 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: for the expenses of the car. So I think sometimes parents, 102 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: and I'm guilty of it too, we want to do 103 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: so much for our kids that we actually stunt them 104 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: learning how. 105 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 2: To pay some of the car insurances. 106 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: I know, yeah, so so it's but it's fun. It's 107 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: fun getting out on your own. 108 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 2: It is get to decorate the way you want it, 109 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: not the way your mom has it, you know. 110 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: I just I loved all those laundy I loved saving 111 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: up and buying, you know, a duvet for my bed 112 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: or shopping. I mean, I did a lot of secondhand stuff. 113 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: When I was married, we didn't have any money. My 114 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: husband was in graduate school. I remember we lived in 115 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: one apartment that didn't have closets, and it did, I 116 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: mean had closets.

So if 146 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: you guys have made the decision to not live together 147 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: until you're married, marriage is an adjustment and living together 148 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: is an adjustment, and you're gonna you're gonna go through it, 149 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: so you know. 150 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: And then what about if you decide to move in 151 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: with them and your parents and everybody's paying for this 152 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,119 Speaker 2: wedding and it's not working right? 153 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean that's creating that's creating a scenario 154 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 1: that you know, Like. 155 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 2: However, take a vacation with them, spend the weekend somewhere together. 156 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 2: See what it's like waking up next to this person 157 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: every day. 158 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you will be fine.

Hi, 164 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: Kathy and Susan. I'd love to hear your thoughts on 165 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: something that happened with my mother in law about a 166 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: year ago. During my birthday celebration at home. She was 167 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: quite rude and dismissive towards both my parents, siblings, and me. 168 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,079 Speaker 1: It was really awkward. She didn't greet anyone and things 169 00:08:56,120 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: turned hostile midway through the celebration. My family is always 170 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 1: treated her with kindness and class, and it was disappointing 171 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: to see her behavior. My husband addressed it with her 172 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: a few days later, but she just criticized everyone instead 173 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: of taking responsibility. Since then, I've felt distant and can't 174 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: trust her anymore. I've talked to my husband about my 175 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: feelings and I'm trying to move past it, but it's tough. 176 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: Once someone disrespects my family, it's hard for me to 177 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: maintain respect. Kathy, I know you've dealt with a similar 178 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: situation with your mother in law. What are your thoughts 179 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: on this and how would you approach moving forward? Well, actually, 180 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: I was thinking about my situation the entire time I 181 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: was reading this, Anonymous, and it is I'm going to say, 182 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: it's really tough. What you don't want to do is 183 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: put your husband in the middle of it, because that 184 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: just doesn't go well. That's his family and he knows 185 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 1: his mother's shortcomings. My mother in law did not like me. 186 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: I had very different sister in laws. One was great, 187 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: one was, you know, a sweet one. The other one 188 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: was very difficult and my husband knew it so and 189 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: they did criticisize my family. And you know what I did. 190 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: I saw her as little as possible. I kept my distance. 191 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: I made sure I made time for the kids. On 192 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: summer vacation, we would go and see them. But honestly, 193 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: a ten day vacation with them, I was tearing my 194 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: hair out by the end. So honestly, there's no good 195 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 1: answer other than do your best to be polite and 196 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: respectful and don't get into a fight with her. Just 197 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: you know, take a walk saying you know, I'm going 198 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: to go out and take a walk, and just as 199 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 1: how lucky you are to have your family and your husband. 200 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 2: And I don't know that I would invite her to 201 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 2: everything anymore. If that's how her behavior is going to be, 202 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 2: then we don't want you to be there. 203 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: Well, but you got to remember, well, first of all, 204 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: my in laws did blessedly didn't live near me until 205 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: later in their life, and my husband and I to 206 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: be just to be clear, my husband and I took 207 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: care of not his sisters, not their daughters. It was 208 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: my husband and I who took care of my mother 209 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: in law. So I think if she lives very close 210 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: to you, that makes it a little more difficult to. 211 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 2: Writer doesn't live in her house. If she's going to 212 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 2: treat my family rudely, then next year's celebration, you're not invited. 213 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 1: What are you going to say to you that's going 214 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: to cross a problem? 215 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: Well, her husband, see what I don't understand, she says. 216 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: My husband addressed it with her a few days later, 217 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 2: but she just criticized everybody instead of taken and Anonymous Anonymous, 218 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 2: what I mean, it's not going to change, but it's 219 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 2: his don't have her there? Well, I think it's unless 220 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 2: you can treat people with respect, then I mean you 221 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 2: still got to be her daughter in law. You go 222 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: through the motions. It's a shame because she ruined a relationship. 223 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: I think that's right, and that, unfortunately, anonymous happens a lot. 224 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: And I will tell you I work my tail off 225 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,719 Speaker 1: to be kind to my son in law and my 226 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: daughter in law because I want to spend time with them. 227 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: So those of you out there who are struggling with 228 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: your in laws, be nice.

I can't speak for Susan's situation. She 256 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: had a little more pain than I did. I had 257 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: no pain except the drains, and Susan didn't even have drains. 258 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: They put drains in me and that was a little 259 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: sticky for a few days. That wasn't the most far, 260 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: but it was sore. But if you want to do it, 261 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 1: it will make you feel good about yourself. Do it 262 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: for yourself. You're gonna come through the surgery. You know. 263 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: It's like all I can say to you, Anonymous.

It's a woman 286 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: and my daughter. Little known fact, Susan, I don't think 287 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: you know this. My grandmother's last name she was a Kennedy, 288 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: and I was going to name Caitlin Kennedy, but I didn't. 289 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: All right, it did, I didn't. Hi, Kathy, but it's 290 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: not the common name. Hi Kathy and Susan. I've listened 291 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: to every episode that you have aired. It is an 292 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: absolute blast listening to and following along with you all. Well, 293 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: thank you. Yes. I recently got married a couple of 294 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: months ago. Congratulations. My husband and I have been together 295 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: for a while. Although we saved sex for marriage, recently 296 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: we haven't been intimate as much as the first few 297 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: months of marriage. I am truly exhausted from work a 298 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: teacher and other life things like keeping physically fit, aaron cooking. 299 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: My husband has a very difficult work schedule and expectations 300 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: than me. That does not make sense. I think he 301 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: has different expectations from her. Okay, we've had conversations about this, 302 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: but my husband is having a very difficult time with it. 303 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: How normal is it for newlyweds to not be intimate 304 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: every day every other day? Should we be worried? What 305 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: advice do you have? This is so easy, Kennedy. For me, 306 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: whatever works for the two of you is what's normal. 307 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: And if you if your husband wants sex more than 308 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: you do, I'm going to be honest with you, there's 309 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: sometimes that it's not going to be the most long 310 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: romantic interlude that we think of when we have sexual 311 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's just going to be wham bam, thank you 312 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: ma'am and making your husband, you know, go to. 313 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 2: Sleeping, your husband satisfied. 314 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: Right they say, goat and sometimes it's going to be 315 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: the best sex you've ever done. 316 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 2: What you can also talk about, like what you're telling 317 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 2: us not too schedule it, but like when you go 318 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 2: back to date night, Like there's one or two nights 319 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 2: out of the week you know you're going to go 320 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: out and be romantic. 321 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: Well, she's a teacher, so I'm guessing she's not going 322 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: out during the week. 323 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 2: Maybe just once a quickie, take care of him in 324 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 2: the morning.

On our 430 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: episode Putting Yourself First, We gave her some advice on 431 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: how to manage conflicting beliefs in friendships. Hello, Golden ladies, 432 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: thank you so much for answering my question about different 433 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: belief systems and friendships. After I submitted my question, my 434 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: friend reached out to me. She asked a simple how 435 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: are you, and I was very honest, not filtering any 436 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: aspects of my life, including my psychic reading business. We 437 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: exchanged ten or so messages and she was brief in 438 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: her replies and follow ups. Never once did she address 439 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: my business, even when it was the bulk of the 440 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 1: text I sent, she just talked around it. It's clear 441 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,479 Speaker 1: to me that she's still not open to discussing not 442 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,719 Speaker 1: only this new business I've created, but my past and 443 00:23:55,840 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: current lived experiences. As a highly intuitive person, I'll continue 444 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: what I've been doing and what you also compassionately and advised, 445 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: and keep focusing on my work, passions and finding joy. 446 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: If she's meant to stay in my life for another season, 447 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: then things will change. If not, then I'll have my answer. 448 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 2: Thanks again, Yes, girlfriend, Yes you did good. 449 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,120 Speaker 1: Ah Renee, I think will you let us know if 450 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: we ever want a reading? Because you said that you 451 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: were more than happy to give us one, and I 452 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:28,719 Speaker 1: think that is so sweet. 453 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 2: I think I'm ready for reading. 454 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 1: Are you ready for reading? I don't know. I think 455 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: it's right. 456 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, we were absolutely right. 457 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: Can I just say, yeah, it's okay. 458 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 2: Not everybody's going to love everything you do, whether it's 459 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 2: your business or your lifestyle. Yeah, but if you're meant 460 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 2: to be friends, then they'll be friends. They don't have 461 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: to talk about it, and I wouldn't force that on them. 462 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: Right well, and also, as I said to her when 463 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: we answered this before, some friends come into your People 464 00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: come into your life for a reason and a season. 465 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,719 Speaker 1: Not everyone is meant to be in your life forever. 466 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: And I think you're doing a great job of reaching 467 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: out to her. And you know why, Susan said, let 468 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 1: it go. If you can be friends, great if you can't, 469 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: and that's okay. Listen, the reading I want, Renee is 470 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: when I'm going to meet my guy, and when Susan's 471 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: going to meet her guy?

The other day, I had an 476 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 2: urge and I pulled up the ten best dating sites, 477 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: and I've been on mostly all of them. I picked 478 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 2: one randomly and I started to fill it out and 479 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 2: I shut it down. I just can't bring myself to 480 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 2: going there again. 481 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,400 Speaker 1: You and I are the sister. We are right there together. 482 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 2: To meet people. 483 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I'm going to go stand. 484 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. You and I are both struggling with 485 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: this right now. But we were talking earlier about lying 486 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: about our age online. You know we both have a 487 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: ton of energy and you know face lists. Notwithstanding, we 488 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: don't actually look our age, and we want to find 489 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:17,439 Speaker 1: someone who's active and enjoys life. And you know, it 490 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: gets harder the older you get. If you're we're young 491 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: in mind and spirit. 492 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 2: So so if anybody out there has some advice for us, 493 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,120 Speaker 2: you can submit that to us too, and we will 494 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 2: read them out loud and talk about how we're going 495 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 2: to follow that advice. I mean, I mean, maybe it 496 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 2: is the answer. Maybe we just needed a couple of 497 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 2: year break. My fear is going back on and seeing 498 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 2: the same faces. 499 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: You know what, I swear you're reading my mind. I mean, 500 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: if I see the same guys, it's not going to 501 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: be fun.
