<v Speaker 2>Hi Cheekies, I am from Florida. I'm actually Brazilian. I'm

0:00:52.600 --> 0:00:55.920
<v Speaker 2>not Mexican, but I love your music. I love your

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:58.360
<v Speaker 2>mom's music. She was actually the first person that I

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:03.080
<v Speaker 2>ever heard in the skin music world. I actually married

0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 2>him Mexican as well, so he's the one that kind

0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:07.920
<v Speaker 2>of put me on. But my question to you is

0:01:07.920 --> 0:01:11.200
<v Speaker 2>how can I embrace my feminine side. I feel like

0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:16.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm just this big, tough girl that will woman because

0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:18.959
<v Speaker 2>I was raised with my brother, you know, he taught

0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:20.560
<v Speaker 2>me how to be tough. My dad taught me how

0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 2>to be tough, and I just feel like I'm just

0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:24.319
<v Speaker 2>so tough for I just want to be soft, Like

0:01:24.360 --> 0:01:25.959
<v Speaker 2>I want to be that girly. I want to be

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:28.840
<v Speaker 2>more feminine. I want to be you know, very cute,

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 2>very all this stuff and very aesthetic in a way.

0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:34.320
<v Speaker 2>I just don't want to be this person that's all

0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:37.560
<v Speaker 2>big and bad, you know, like I'm just I just

0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:41.119
<v Speaker 2>want to be more feminine. And you know, I love

0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:43.840
<v Speaker 2>getting my nails done, my hair is done. I just

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:46.360
<v Speaker 2>feel like there's there's more that I just don't know

0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 2>how to lock in. And I mean, I have no

0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 2>problem being Jinoona as fun, but you know, like I

0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 2>just want to be more feminine too, you know, like

0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 2>I drive big trucks, I do all this stuff. I

0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:01.840
<v Speaker 2>work in construction. I don't want that to overpower me

0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:07.840
<v Speaker 2>and overpower my feminine So how can I change? Girl?

0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 1>You are a badass, Melissa, first of all. And I

0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:13.520
<v Speaker 1>really want to go to Brazil. Have you been to Brazil?

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:15.959
<v Speaker 1>I want to go to Brazil anyways, But I'm glad

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 1>that you, you know, love the mexicanos. Okay, I think

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty bad ass that you drive a truck and

0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:26.239
<v Speaker 1>that you work in construction girl, Like, whoa. I don't

0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:31.120
<v Speaker 1>think there's anything wrong with a woman being I guess

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.600
<v Speaker 1>tomboyish for the lack of a better word. I think

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 1>that that's attractive. You know. Yes, I understand that you

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:40.679
<v Speaker 1>want to be more feminine. I get that. I had

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:43.840
<v Speaker 1>to learn because I would always step into like my

0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:45.920
<v Speaker 1>masculine energy. And if you want to be in a

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>relationship with a man, you have to learn to be

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:53.120
<v Speaker 1>a little more cutesy, you know, and de mirror with

0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:55.919
<v Speaker 1>how you speak and certain things. So I've had to

0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:58.160
<v Speaker 1>learn myself. I love the fact that you get your

0:02:58.240 --> 0:02:59.720
<v Speaker 1>nils down, you love to get your hair done, all

0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:03.079
<v Speaker 1>that good stuff. Do you wear dresses? Maybe we're high heels.

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever taken an etiquette class? I think an

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:08.320
<v Speaker 1>etiquet class would be cool. I want to take one, actually,

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:11.760
<v Speaker 1>I think etiquet classes will definitely help with kind of

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:15.400
<v Speaker 1>being more in touch with that feminine side. But I

0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>think if you work around dudes all the time and everything, like,

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be a little hard. But again, there's nothing

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:21.400
<v Speaker 1>wrong with that. I think that's actually, like I said,

0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:27.280
<v Speaker 1>really sexy. But try etiquette classes. Another thing would be music,

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 1>like very sexy music that's gonna make you like feel

0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:34.240
<v Speaker 1>like in touch with your like feminine side. Meditation too.

0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:37.160
<v Speaker 1>You guys know, I'm a huge advocate for meditation and therapy,

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 1>but medication could definitely help you, like if you are

0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:44.560
<v Speaker 1>focusing on the feminine energy for it to be downloaded.

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:47.720
<v Speaker 1>It'll take some time because I think you are who

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 1>you are and you shouldn't want to change that completely.

0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:52.320
<v Speaker 1>But you can step into your feminine a little bit,

0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 1>for sure, But I don't know I'm going to look

0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:59.040
<v Speaker 1>into that, but hopefully my advice helped a little bit

0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:01.240
<v Speaker 1>or helps a little bit keep us updated. I'd love

0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:03.400
<v Speaker 1>to hear from you again, Melissa, but I think you

0:04:03.440 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 1>sound like a pretty bad ass girl, so don't try

0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:12.520
<v Speaker 1>to change too much. Okay. Next question comes from Chantell.

0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:16.359
<v Speaker 3>Hey, Cheeky's a Chantal. You've answered a few of my

0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.960
<v Speaker 3>questions in the past, but I have a new question

0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:22.560
<v Speaker 3>for you. So, I was going through TikTok and I

0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:25.640
<v Speaker 3>saw that scene where your mom had her taco truck.

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 3>First of all, that was so iconic. I think seeing

0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:31.560
<v Speaker 3>you and your cousin and I think Johnny in the

0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:36.280
<v Speaker 3>back almost falling while she was driving is just absolutely

0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:42.839
<v Speaker 3>hilarious and awesome. However, just hearing how all the fans

0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:46.120
<v Speaker 3>were talking about how good the tacos were and how

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:48.799
<v Speaker 3>she like shut the people up in the radio saying

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.720
<v Speaker 3>that no, this isn't ever real taco because she had

0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 3>lettuce in them made me crave it. So my question is,

0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:59.040
<v Speaker 3>would you and your siblings ever consider making a taco

0:04:59.120 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 3>truck and your mom honor you know, seeing that you

0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:03.839
<v Speaker 3>guys are her kids, you guys probably have the same

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 3>saasle that she did. So I'm just curious because I'm

0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:09.880
<v Speaker 3>a foodie. Anyways, girl, love you keep doing you, sending

0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 3>love your way.

0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Hi. Oh you're still cute, Chantell. It's funny because when

0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.360
<v Speaker 1>I read your name, I thought, I know that I've

0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:18.719
<v Speaker 1>said this name a couple of times. So thank you

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:20.640
<v Speaker 1>so much for being a fan of Dear Cheeky's. We

0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:22.960
<v Speaker 1>appreciate you very much. Round them applause for Chantelle. Guys

0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:26.599
<v Speaker 1>please who It's like ten of us in here right now,

0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:33.919
<v Speaker 1>So thank you Chantelle. And talking about tacos. Oh my gosh, dude,

0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:35.320
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people don't know this. My mom was

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:38.280
<v Speaker 1>a pretty good cook. She didn't cook often, but when

0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:43.159
<v Speaker 1>she did, it was delicious. And I have the recipe

0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:45.280
<v Speaker 1>to that salsa because the salsa on top of the

0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:48.120
<v Speaker 1>tacos is what made the taco because yes, they were very,

0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:53.800
<v Speaker 1>very different. It's like meat, lettuce, granma, a little bit

0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:58.719
<v Speaker 1>of guesso, and then the salsa. Delicious. I've never thought

0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 1>about opening up that truck again, but it's not a

0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:02.600
<v Speaker 1>bad idea. Maybe we should call it like a Jenny

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Taco or something like that, like if we I don't know,

0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 1>I have to talk to my siblings. But I definitely

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:09.960
<v Speaker 1>I like the idea. I like the idea. I will

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:13.360
<v Speaker 1>definitely think about it. Said definitely three times, but definitely.

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I I like the question, so let me think. But

0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:20.159
<v Speaker 1>they are really good. Those talkers were really good. I

0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.560
<v Speaker 1>missed my mom's cooking. And the lintwer two was kind

0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:26.279
<v Speaker 1>of like like grilled a little bit like not grilled,

0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:31.280
<v Speaker 1>but like anyways, they're really good. So yeah, maybe I'll

0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:34.359
<v Speaker 1>talk to my cousin. Maybe she'll do it. We'll see. Okay,

0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 1>thank you Chantelle again for your question. We love you

0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 1>all right, So third question comes from Kate. Let's see

0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:47.520
<v Speaker 1>what Kate has to say.

0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 4>Hi, Tiki's I'm just gonna say my name's Kate to

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.159
<v Speaker 4>keep it kind of anonymous. First and foremost, I wanted

0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:54.279
<v Speaker 4>to say that I love you and I love what

0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:57.839
<v Speaker 4>you're doing, because I think it's hella inspirational to give

0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:01.080
<v Speaker 4>people the opportunity to get advice from you. My first

0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 4>question kind of relates to your book Bed Alone. I

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 4>went through a similar situation as you did as a

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:08.719
<v Speaker 4>child from ages eight to sixteen, at the hands of

0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:11.480
<v Speaker 4>my older brother's best friend, and nobody knew about it

0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 4>until I was forced to tell my mom when I

0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:17.320
<v Speaker 4>was sixteen and struggling at school. I'm twenty three now

0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:20.680
<v Speaker 4>and I still struggle a lot. But since it's super

0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.600
<v Speaker 4>taboo in our culture to talk about things like that,

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 4>me and my mom only talked about it that one

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:28.560
<v Speaker 4>time and that was it. So now that I'm twenty three,

0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:31.120
<v Speaker 4>I'm being pressured to be in relationships and stuff. My

0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 4>mom was always asking me, like why is your relationships failing?

0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 4>Why does it never last?

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:35.239
<v Speaker 3>And stuff?

0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.160
<v Speaker 4>But I feel like when I get to the point

0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:39.200
<v Speaker 4>of intimacy, I get scared, and you mentioned that in

0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:42.400
<v Speaker 4>your book, so I was wondering how you got over that.

0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.559
<v Speaker 4>Like even the word sex makes me uncomfortable. I feel

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:48.760
<v Speaker 4>like every man I'm ever talking to, that's all they want,

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 4>even though half the time it's probably not. But I'm

0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:54.040
<v Speaker 4>always self sabotaging. And I just wanted to know how

0:07:54.080 --> 0:07:56.600
<v Speaker 4>you got over that and your point of view from

0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:59.000
<v Speaker 4>now from when you wrote the book, because I know

0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 4>you say how you got over it in the book,

0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:04.560
<v Speaker 4>but I just wanted to know, like what you're thinking now,

0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:07.480
<v Speaker 4>what's kind of like your view of it and stuff.

0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:09.920
<v Speaker 4>But I don't know, I just feel really pressured and

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.720
<v Speaker 4>just wondering what you're thinking. But anyways, thank you so much.

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:14.400
<v Speaker 4>I love you.

0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:14.760
<v Speaker 3>Bye.

0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Kate. Thank you first of all for your question, and

0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I understand do you change in your name? I totally

0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.960
<v Speaker 1>get that. I respect it. You sound like a very

0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:29.280
<v Speaker 1>very smart young lady. First of all, you're very young,

0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:33.439
<v Speaker 1>so be patient with yourself, be compassionate with yourself. This

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.360
<v Speaker 1>is not something that is going to heal or maybe

0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>ever go away. I'm still dealing with it, you know.

0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.280
<v Speaker 1>I just saw my dad for the first time and

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:47.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how many years, seventeen years, and I

0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:50.400
<v Speaker 1>thought I was over it, so it takes some time. Again,

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:54.600
<v Speaker 1>you're very young. Don't let anybody pressure you. I think

0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.080
<v Speaker 1>you need to talk to your mom and tell her. Please, Mom,

0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:01.079
<v Speaker 1>because you're still so young. Your twenties are when you're

0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 1>supposed to just really figure out who you are, what

0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:07.839
<v Speaker 1>you want to do in life. There is absolutely no rush,

0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:09.360
<v Speaker 1>and I think you need to tell your mom. Can

0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:11.319
<v Speaker 1>you just in other words, lay off a little bit

0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 1>in a nice way, respectful way, of course, But I'm

0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:15.760
<v Speaker 1>not ready to date. I don't want a date. Do

0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:17.160
<v Speaker 1>you remember? Maybe you shoul tell her mom? Do you

0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 1>remember what happened to me? I know you don't really

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:21.440
<v Speaker 1>like to talk about it, but that's something I'm still

0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:24.520
<v Speaker 1>dealing with. So I would really appreciate if you would

0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:27.400
<v Speaker 1>just have patience and give me the time that I need.

0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:30.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you've already started therapy, but therapy

0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:34.160
<v Speaker 1>is something that definitely helped me. And what you say

0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:36.400
<v Speaker 1>about guys just wanting sex, that's for a long time

0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:39.319
<v Speaker 1>what I thought I and that's why I went as

0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:42.920
<v Speaker 1>far as like saying if girls was something that I

0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:45.440
<v Speaker 1>wanted to do, and I tried that for a year

0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:48.720
<v Speaker 1>and then I realized that I like guys. I think

0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 1>it's just also finding the right person. It took me

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:53.800
<v Speaker 1>so long to find the right person to make me

0:09:53.840 --> 0:09:57.840
<v Speaker 1>feel comfortable and step into my sexuality. And you know,

0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:00.240
<v Speaker 1>it just it takes time. You have to hear be

0:10:02.480 --> 0:10:05.679
<v Speaker 1>patient with yourself as well, and earlier I said to

0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:07.680
<v Speaker 1>be compassionate, like this is a process. This is not

0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:09.480
<v Speaker 1>something you could be like, oh, I'm over it. It's

0:10:09.520 --> 0:10:14.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna take some time, so don't rush anything and wait

0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:16.480
<v Speaker 1>until you will find that person that's going to make

0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:20.680
<v Speaker 1>you feel comfortable. And it took me so many years.

0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:22.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, I had to kiss a lot of froggies

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:27.240
<v Speaker 1>to finally get my prints. So you know, just take

0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:32.080
<v Speaker 1>your time and go to therapy. Do therapy. Therapy help

0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:34.600
<v Speaker 1>me a lot life coaching. Therapy and life coaching are

0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:38.440
<v Speaker 1>very different, so try therapy then life coaching, and that

0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:43.160
<v Speaker 1>will definitely help you. And I know that SA affects

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:47.160
<v Speaker 1>all of us in different ways, so we can't compare

0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:51.080
<v Speaker 1>ourselves to someone else's process, and you know, vice versa.

0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:54.160
<v Speaker 1>It's just the first step is being self aware. And

0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:57.080
<v Speaker 1>you sound very, very in tune with your feelings. You

0:10:57.120 --> 0:10:59.680
<v Speaker 1>sound like a very smart young lady, so be proud

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:02.240
<v Speaker 1>of that you're aware of what's happening. I think it's

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.480
<v Speaker 1>just you vocalizing to your mom and to anyone else

0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 1>that is pressuring you, because you shouldn't feel pressure to

0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>be in a relationship. Again, you're very young, so I

0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>think just putting that to the side and vocalizing it

0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:16.280
<v Speaker 1>and letting people know where you are is going to

0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:19.160
<v Speaker 1>give you power and that room and that space, that

0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:23.320
<v Speaker 1>soul space to step into your own and to heal

0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:25.240
<v Speaker 1>this because you can and you will.

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:26.360
<v Speaker 3>You will.

0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I promise you. This will make you a stronger person

0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and it will help you help other people. I think

0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:36.240
<v Speaker 1>when you start looking at it from the outside in

0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:40.199
<v Speaker 1>and saying, Okay, how can I with this experience when

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.120
<v Speaker 1>I went through something that was so traumatic and hurt

0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 1>me very much, how can I help others? That just

0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 1>changes things And that's what helped me as well, just

0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:53.400
<v Speaker 1>survive that from survivor to thriver, you know. So with

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:55.480
<v Speaker 1>all those things that I said, I hope that I

0:11:55.559 --> 0:11:58.000
<v Speaker 1>was able to help you and just know that I'm

0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:00.720
<v Speaker 1>with you. I understand what you're going through and not alone.

0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Tell your mama. I think that's going to help you

0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:06.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot, because we really care about what our parents say,

0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think that that's probably what's really causing you

0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:12.440
<v Speaker 1>and it's affecting you, So have the conversation with your

0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>mom bim and keep us updated. Please thank you everyone
