But you know, 218 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: at the time you're doing it to maybe fill a 219 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 3: hole or just maybe numb whatever else is going on, 220 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 3: or maybe just to fucking have a good time, because 221 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 3: we're so bored at that age, and like we had supervision, 222 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 3: but not someone around the clock with us. And I've 223 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 3: always been like a baddie in my heart, like I 224 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 3: just knew I was a little like that gets me going. 225 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 3: You know, some people are just like they don't have 226 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 3: that need for another layer of the world, seeing that 227 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 3: other side of the world. And I go like this 228 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 3: because I think about literally the soil coming up and 229 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 3: just seeing what's underneath the hood. But when I've done mushrooms, 230 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 3: when I've done all the things, I really think that 231 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 3: people have done drugs, such as ourselves, they've just seen 232 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 3: that other layer of the world. 233 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: I agree. That's a good way I'm saying, and it's 234 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: a vine that we all can share. I totally agree 235 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: with that. I you know me, and we actually went 236 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: to Joshua Tree, I don't know, maybe like two months ago, 237 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: and that was the first time, like not the first time. 238 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: It's been a while since I've used mushrooms super heavily 239 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: because I like like microadosing or take small doses. When 240 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: I was out there. I was like, I'm going to 241 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: go all the way in. I went all the way in, 242 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: and I saw I definitely peeled back a layer of 243 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: the world. Both had ever gone wrong. It wasn't no, 244 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 1: I mean not for me. Actually, yes, there's been one 245 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: time when I was in college. I was in like 246 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: a studio apartment with like seven people doing mushrooms in 247 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 1: the winter New York. That's terrible, horrible. It was like 248 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: we were all around away. I was like with a 249 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: bunch of weird energy. I couldn't leave. It was just bad. 250 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: I think even like, yeah, I don't want, I don't want, 251 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 1: but it was it was not a good experience. 252 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 3: I need to be in nature to do that, because 253 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: you have to see like everything come to life around you, 254 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 3: like the trees right right. 255 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 2: There's definitely certain environments that are better than others. But 256 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 2: I agree, I feel like. 257 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 3: When you I don't know about you, but I don't 258 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 3: think I can do it just in a room that's 259 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 3: just four walls and nothing to do. 260 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: I need music. 261 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 3: I need you have to like set the seed right. 262 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 1: For me. At least, I'm not one of those people 263 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: like I like I'll take things like on the fly 264 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: if I'm with people sometimes. 265 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 3: But there's certain drugs for certain setups. 266 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: But I have no problem saying no, no, I'm good. 267 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: I'm not. I know I'm not in a place or 268 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: around people. I really want to experience this. I might 269 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: say something, I mean, thankfully.

And here's 341 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 3: what I decided to tell myself is that everyone has 342 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 3: a way that they live. Everyone has a reason to 343 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 3: wake up every morning and if their slate is clean 344 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 3: and they wake up with a clear head, and they're 345 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 3: just like, I don't need a thing to run around 346 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 3: this world, amazing and good for them.

So I'm just like, that 353 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 3: is my story, I tell myself. 354 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: No, it's a true story. I agree with that. I 355 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: think that everyone has their things that they need to 356 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: be productive and sometimes and sometimes it's tea and sometimes 357 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: it's to you know, that's mine happens to be both. Yeah, 358 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 1: actually coffee, but you know, whatequila. And people don't really 359 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: give women credit. 360 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 2: Like I always say this, but first of all, I 361 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 2: probably got pregnant because I was acting fucking crazy, like same, 362 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 2: partying with my baby daddy, just staying up all night, drinking, 363 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 2: just acting crazy. And when I got pregnant, I was 364 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 2: so fucking scared, even though I'd fucking known him like 365 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,719 Speaker 2: fifteen years. But I was like, wait, I didn't get 366 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 2: a two week notice, Like I wouldn't I want to 367 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 2: go hard for two weeks now that I know, And I. 368 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: Probably like was like am I pregnant? And am I pregnant? 369 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: My periods are I'm like, let's go out. 370 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 2: And then I took a pregnancy test, you know, But 371 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 2: and then there's this whole and. 372 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 3: This is why we started our podcast. 373 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,400 Speaker 2: This is this is it like because it's necessary that 374 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 2: we all come together and be authentic with ourselves and 375 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 2: with others without judging ourselves, because it gives people permission 376 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 2: to not cast judgment and not judge themselves. But the 377 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 2: truth of the matter is we're fucking human, and we're high, 378 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: and we're young or women, and we're we have our 379 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 2: own identities. 380 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 3: And I think when you. 381 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 2: Get pregnant, suddenly there's this flush of oh shit, I 382 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 2: have to be this different type of person. You judge 383 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 2: how you used to be, the things you've done, because 384 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 2: now you're a mother and there's like this title. But 385 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 2: and then there's like that first two years that we 386 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 2: talked about that you're just congratulations coming out of and 387 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 2: you're like trying to find out like a piece of 388 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 2: your old self with probably like not snorting a lot 389 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 2: of drugs and then not. 390 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 3: None at all right now on the earth right and 391 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 3: then alcohol. 392 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 2: Now, and then the piece of yourself that's like catering 393 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 2: and being an example to someone else.

So it's more about that. It's not an elitism, 1211 00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,800 Speaker 3: it's nothing or nothing. It's like, what's your vibe.

And by 1222 00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:49,359 Speaker 3: the way, it's all backgrounds of all women. And I've 1223 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,759 Speaker 3: gotten a lot of different hate mail. 1224 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:53,080 Speaker 1: And it's just like we're creating. 1225 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 3: And I don't like to say, like say family with 1226 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 3: community because it sounds like culty. But it's just like 1227 00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,920 Speaker 3: we're just creating an energy that when you're in our 1228 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:05,920 Speaker 3: space you can gain something from the people you talk to. 1229 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 1: You know, you're on the same level. 1230 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 3: And it's not like you're all have one hundred thousand 1231 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 3: followers or you're all founders of this. 1232 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:14,919 Speaker 1: It's not that it's what you said. 1233 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 3: It's a vibe you're curating. 1234 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 1: It's a vibe. It's yeah, but it is. It is 1235 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 1: like a fine web of like how oh this person, 1236 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 1: oh you work in this like say you work in beauty, 1237 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 1: Oh you work in you know, tech.

Like we 1243 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 3: have a jewelry designer in the group, it's so subdued 1244 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 3: and quiet, and bless her for it. And she doesn't 1245 00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:53,360 Speaker 3: like speak, she's not like us, but I know that 1246 00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:56,600 Speaker 3: she brings something because I love what she builds and creates, 1247 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,920 Speaker 3: and I love that she's just speaking to a spec 1248 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 3: market and we believe in that. So you're not gonna 1249 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 3: always see a girl in there that's like wearing the 1250 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:07,800 Speaker 3: lowest whatever and drinking all of the things. It's not 1251 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 3: about that. It's just it's a vibe. And unless you're 1252 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 3: a community leader, like I know, it's hard to target 1253 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 3: exactly what you mean by that. 1254 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,760 Speaker 1: But also I think, even speaking back to what you 1255 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 1: said about you know. 1256 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 2: When you get a certain age, you start to address 1257 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 2: your inner child. There's just a thing like in general, 1258 00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:28,000 Speaker 2: as you grow and as you hopefully as you hit 1259 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,479 Speaker 2: different you know, you grow an age, there are things 1260 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,320 Speaker 2: that come to forefront and things that you know are 1261 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:37,480 Speaker 2: become important, one of which immediately you start to be like, 1262 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 2: who am I spending giving my energy to? 1263 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:41,040 Speaker 1: Who am I around? 1264 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 2: What are they about? What are their goals? Where are 1265 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 2: they going? Where are they headed? And are we in 1266 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 2: a like minded place? When I come around you and 1267 00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:51,240 Speaker 2: then I leave, am I gaining. Do I feel fulfilled 1268 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 2: and happy? Do I feel like I've gained something? Have 1269 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,720 Speaker 2: you motivated me and inspired me and left me feeling 1270 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,680 Speaker 2: full and hungry?

Somehow, I 1303 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:32,840 Speaker 1: don't know how this happened to you guys, but we 1304 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 1: were in the religion and spiritual section of Apple Podcast. Okay, 1305 01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:37,680 Speaker 1: could you I don't want me to. 1306 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 3: Get more bad religious experience for me, but okay, okay, okay, 1307 01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 3: I agree. 1308 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 1: But like people that are looking for God and they're 1309 01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:47,360 Speaker 1: listening to us, they're either gonna hate us or love us. 1310 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 1: They're gonna leave immediately, you know, Like you have to 1311 01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 1: know your like we know your audience. If people like 1312 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:57,160 Speaker 1: you either like good Mom's bad choices or you think 1313 01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:00,160 Speaker 1: we're fucking annoying, you think we're terrible parents. I don't know, 1314 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 1: but like I think, like you cut the fat off 1315 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:06,840 Speaker 1: of shit when you know what your brand is. And 1316 01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 1: I think knowing what your brand is this is really important. 1317 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 1: And you know, we don't really talk about like business 1318 01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:14,360 Speaker 1: or podcasting on this on our show a lot, but 1319 01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 1: like I think even me and me and Jamille like 1320 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: having a brand essentially, like we've really understood like who 1321 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 1: we are, what we what we what we talk about represent, 1322 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:26,880 Speaker 1: and what our topics are and it's and it's always 1323 01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:30,400 Speaker 1: authentic because it's authentically us. And I think that's really 1324 01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:33,800 Speaker 1: what it's come down to, is understanding who we are authentically. 1325 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:36,320 Speaker 1: Are we perfect? Do we have it all figured out? 1326 01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 1: A futly? Not right? But what I do know is that, 1327 01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 1: like I know, like who I am, I'm still figuring 1328 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:48,200 Speaker 1: out what I need and what I want for that person. 1329 01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 1: And I think, you know, we have a platform where 1330 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 1: people join us on this journey. 1331 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,160 Speaker 3: Do you know how much of a gift it is, 1332 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:59,360 Speaker 3: by the way, ladies, to give your whole selves and 1333 01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 3: share this. There's so many people that feel this inside 1334 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,000 Speaker 3: what you guys are sharing, and they just hold it 1335 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:07,919 Speaker 3: in because they're just like unpolished. I got my shit together, 1336 01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 3: and you're just like, I got my shit together, but 1337 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 3: here are the things that are unraveling lately. And that's 1338 01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:15,280 Speaker 3: such a gift to know how to articulate it. 1339 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:19,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's articulation.

Honestly, sometimes I call it accidental. I guess 1344 01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:33,600 Speaker 1: it was accidental at first, but now it's very intentional. 1345 01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:37,720 Speaker 1: And I think like with that intentionality is that a 1346 01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 1: word with it comes comes that like protection, and comes 1347 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:45,520 Speaker 1: that like curation and like, so going back to like 1348 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 1: how you curate your brand, like I understand it.

So like, there'll be 1604 01:13:26,240 --> 01:13:29,839 Speaker 3: times where I walk into like this cookie cutter events. 1605 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:32,320 Speaker 3: It's kind of like where's the wine and already be 1606 01:13:32,479 --> 01:13:34,720 Speaker 3: the problem because I just want to like shake it 1607 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:36,639 Speaker 3: up at that moment and let them hate me because 1608 01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:39,479 Speaker 3: they're gonna hate me eventually. It's like I'm gonna already 1609 01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:41,720 Speaker 3: say it. But then I find that one girl's like right, 1610 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:44,960 Speaker 3: and I'm just like babe, and it's her party right 1611 01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 3: right right, It's like there she is, Let's go to 1612 01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:49,639 Speaker 3: the corner and smoke and we'll be right then exactly 1613 01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:52,479 Speaker 3: guess why we are running our ship and doing it. 1614 01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:54,680 Speaker 3: But it's just like you feel that, and it's just 1615 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:56,400 Speaker 3: like I always feel that the moment I walk into 1616 01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 3: a room, and that's my own triggers that I need 1617 01:13:58,320 --> 01:13:58,920 Speaker 3: to unwrap. 1618 01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:00,400 Speaker 1: I think that's great. 1619 01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:04,439 Speaker 4: Tying up the boat of this episode is like that 1620 01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:06,920 Speaker 4: you can't judge other moms because. 1621 01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:10,240 Speaker 1: You just don't know. You really don't know to talk no, 1622 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 1: and energy is important and connection is important and community 1623 01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:17,479 Speaker 1: is important, and that's why conversations are important because you 1624 01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:19,080 Speaker 1: meet people when you talk to them and you're like 1625 01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,160 Speaker 1: ohh and they call back that mushroom layer, whether you 1626 01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:26,439 Speaker 1: took them or not, and then they show you like, noah, bitch, 1627 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:27,240 Speaker 1: you were wrong. 1628 01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:31,160 Speaker 2: And sometimes it is such a projection of self, and 1629 01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 2: my therapist shout out to Isaiah said the same thing 1630 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:35,760 Speaker 2: to me this week. 1631 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:37,559 Speaker 1: He was like, you know, I noticed you you don't 1632 01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:38,720 Speaker 1: like to be being told what to do. 1633 01:14:39,040 --> 01:14:42,000 Speaker 2: I had a dream and he was like, dismantling my dream, 1634 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:45,080 Speaker 2: because that's what hypnotherapy does, tells you about your subconscious 1635 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:47,080 Speaker 2: and he was like, you sound like because in the 1636 01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:48,920 Speaker 2: dream I was like I was in the forest and 1637 01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:50,160 Speaker 2: then went to the airport and I was the only 1638 01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:52,240 Speaker 2: one who had money. And he was like, you sound 1639 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:53,880 Speaker 2: like you feel like you don't have a lot of support. 1640 01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:56,640 Speaker 2: And then he said, sometimes do you think are you 1641 01:14:56,680 --> 01:14:58,439 Speaker 2: being your authentic self or do you think you expect 1642 01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:01,000 Speaker 2: people to judge you? And that's why you have this 1643 01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:03,120 Speaker 2: thought of you don't want to be told what to do, 1644 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:05,679 Speaker 2: and so you have kind of maybe a rebellious nature. 1645 01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:07,599 Speaker 2: And at first, like it seemed accurate, but it also 1646 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:11,000 Speaker 2: was like a lot of words. But now Sharon and 1647 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:16,120 Speaker 2: you are confirming that it's true. Everything everything is and 1648 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,960 Speaker 2: a projection how we feel our judgment as getting angry, 1649 01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:19,920 Speaker 2: getting up to the punch. 1650 01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:22,840 Speaker 3: Yes, we're just like, let me define me before you 1651 01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 3: start putting words in my mouth like this is me. 1652 01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:27,920 Speaker 3: I'm shaking shit up, you know what I mean, and 1653 01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:32,479 Speaker 3: like parting words. But like we success comes in so 1654 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:35,519 Speaker 3: many ways. You can be as successful without the trauma, 1655 01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:37,720 Speaker 3: you could be as successful with the trauma and your 1656 01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:40,200 Speaker 3: party favors. You can be all the things. It's your 1657 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 3: ambition that gets you there. And just believe that you 1658 01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:46,439 Speaker 3: can do it and don't let anyone fucking tell you 1659 01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:50,960 Speaker 3: that you can do it right. It's absolutely possible. And 1660 01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:53,760 Speaker 3: if you need support, there are so many communities. There's 1661 01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:57,320 Speaker 3: good moms, bad choices, there's fashion moms, there's creative career club. 1662 01:15:57,720 --> 01:16:00,400 Speaker 3: There's so many ways you can go. There is help, 1663 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:02,360 Speaker 3: and I don't think you can do it alone. 1664 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:03,439 Speaker 1: You can't. 1665 01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:08,360 Speaker 2: You you become empowered within your community, and I'm sure 1666 01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:09,200 Speaker 2: I need to see that. 1667 01:16:10,160 --> 01:16:12,120 Speaker 1: Yes I needed like, oh there's other women. 1668 01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:15,160 Speaker 2: Like literally, even even when me and Eric had first 1669 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:17,600 Speaker 2: started this, I don't think we really realized what we 1670 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:19,720 Speaker 2: had embarked on.
