School of Vinyasin Rashikasha, India, where I 348 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 4: became a certified yoga instructor. Then I went on to Shanghai. 349 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 4: Then I went on to Brazil and once I like 350 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 4: was like, I found me and can nobody tell me shit? 351 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 4: I came back home and was basically like yo yo, yo, 352 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 4: yo yo.

And then when my company 524 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 4: took off, that is when he was like, oh, I 525 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 4: want to make your life live in hell. We went 526 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 4: through child support. There was a point where I was 527 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 4: paying six thousand dollars a month in child support. You ladies, 528 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 4: if you have an LLC, make sure you separate your 529 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 4: shit because they can pierce your veil.

I didn't know what the 535 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 4: fuck I was doing, like my first year, and I 536 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 4: think people should be more transparent about this. My first year, 537 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 4: I made over three hundred thousand dollars. I know what 538 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 4: the fuck was. 539 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 3: I was like money, right, right, right, And. 540 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 4: Then you'd be like, actually, it's not that rich. But 541 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 4: the divorce took almost two and a half years. I 542 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 4: had to get a lawyer and the n we ended 543 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 4: up with fifty to fifty custody and then there was 544 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 4: a lot of contention. But I quickly just like reframed 545 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 4: my mindset around it and like he knows it. He 546 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 4: listens to the podcast, like he'll hear this one. I 547 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 4: affectionately now call him my baby mama.

So 580 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 4: this is a very interesting and unique time where I 581 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 4: am now thirty three, fully navigating womanhood without children. So 582 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 4: I don't know if that resonates with anybody, but it's 583 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 4: it's a different day. 584 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 3: That's amazing. 585 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think that that's a story 586 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: that you don't hear often, right, Like you hear that, 587 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: you know, you know, the kid is always supposed to 588 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: be with the mother, Like that's. 589 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 4: What mom's amazing to be. 590 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: But I have a question though, because because of the 591 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: history that you have with him. Do you ever con 592 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: because this is always my fear because I mean we're 593 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: both single parents, and for me, like I don't really 594 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: know what kind of parenting is happening on the other side, 595 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: Like I just don't. He doesn't care to share with me, 596 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: he doesn't care to co parent with me. Really, yeah, 597 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: and we're not it's not a team effort. So do 598 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: you ever get concerned about like, you know, how how 599 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 1: how being real? Yeah, if you're going to have to 600 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 1: do a lot of unprogramming. 601 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 4: Oh, absolutely definitely there's reprogramming. I mean things as simple 602 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,360 Speaker 4: as you know, the way my son in him interact 603 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 4: versus like what I allow is different. So they come over, 604 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 4: you know, and it's just like day one is always 605 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 4: like transitions. Day two is like, all right, so we're here. 606 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 4: Let me tell y'all, y'all might have forgot the rules 607 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 4: the same datty house. You know, it's not his house. 608 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 4: So I think, you know, there is that. But if 609 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 4: we can start focusing on only controlling what we can, right, 610 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 4: and I think it illuminates the differences in parenting styles 611 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 4: when you guys are parenting separate. But if you think 612 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 4: about it, if you guys. Ever, you know, cohabitated with 613 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 4: the children, there was still that contention, there was still 614 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 4: that difference in how you parented. And you know, I 615 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 4: remember when you know, we were doing the crowdout method 616 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 4: to sleep train my daughter and I was very much 617 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 4: like not tripping when she was crying, and he was like, 618 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 4: damn you a monster, and no, she'll figure it out, 619 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 4: and we would have those moments of this is how 620 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 4: I want a parent, This is how I want a parent. 621 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 4: So when I can remember that, this is no different 622 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 4: than when we were in one household, and you know, 623 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 4: what's my ideal situation outside of us being married is, 624 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 4: you know, eventually I move forward and find a person 625 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 4: who loves me and loves the kids, and he does 626 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 4: the same. And now these children have four parents. And 627 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 4: typically I like his girlfriends more than I like him 628 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 4: like and that's one thing I'll give him. He was 629 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 4: not a good husband to me. He show know how 630 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 4: to pick some good women, and he's an amazing father, 631 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 4: and so I trust his process and I ask a 632 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 4: lot of questions, which I think it sometimes puts undue 633 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 4: pressure on my daughter to like report because you get 634 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 4: in and I'll be like, all right, snitch to me, 635 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 4: what's going on over there, you know, And so I 636 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 4: acknowledge that, but it's out of our you know, it's 637 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 4: out of my control. And as long as I'm never 638 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 4: hearing things that feel alarming like abuse because he has 639 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 4: a history of abusing women or you know, heavy patriarchal 640 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 4: things that I'm like, yeah, we're not gonna be putting 641 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 4: that on my daughter, then then I kind of just 642 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 4: gotta let him do his things. I picked him, and 643 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 4: sometimes I apologize to myself and other people, like, I'm sorry, 644 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 4: that's who I chose. He was mine. I did not 645 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 4: stick beside him, but I him. 646 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 3: Do you think you get married again?

First of all, you chose your 1010 00:43:56,440 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 2: baby daddy, as we all show, But like I think 1011 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,399 Speaker 2: women have a hard time shifting that, Like it's one 1012 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 2: thing to recognize that you have some things that you 1013 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,360 Speaker 2: need to work on. It's a whole different thing to 1014 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 2: act on them and then choose a partner based on 1015 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 2: the choices and the changes that you've made. I think 1016 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 2: when you've grown up in like abusive situations trauma, it's 1017 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,439 Speaker 2: easy to attract relationships and partners like that because it's familiar, right, 1018 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 2: But like, how do you like first to recognize that, 1019 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 2: like until like maybe it's not you getting hit in 1020 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 2: the face or whatever, even though that's the case for 1021 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 2: a lot of women, Like what really made you start 1022 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 2: acting on those boundaries and the people you choose, people 1023 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 2: who share your energy, because that's hard for me. 1024 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think, like you said that, childhood trauma, 1025 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,040 Speaker 4: it permeates every facet of your life, how you show 1026 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,239 Speaker 4: up in corporate how you show up in friendships, how 1027 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 4: you show up as a parent. In a lot of ways, 1028 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 4: what we end up being led by is fear instead 1029 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:52,719 Speaker 4: of love, fear of loss, fear of judgment, fear of abandonment. 1030 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:54,879 Speaker 4: Instead of I give from a place of love, It's 1031 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 4: like I give from a place of like, please love 1032 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 4: me back. And I think that is where mindfulness becomes 1033 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:03,919 Speaker 4: very important and a lot of times people are telling 1034 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,839 Speaker 4: me like, I don't like to meditate because I can't 1035 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 4: quiet my mind. The point isn't ever to quiet your mind. 1036 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 4: It's to create some separation so that you can then 1037 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 4: observe yourself so that then you can say, Hm, why 1038 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 4: did I make that decision? And it's how bothered am 1039 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 4: I by the outcome of that? And so I think 1040 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 4: for me since my ex husband, you know, and like 1041 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 4: these three random stories I told you, those are times 1042 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 4: where I know that I fucking chose chaos. Like I 1043 00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:35,319 Speaker 4: kid you not, I was like, mindful moment, Brittany, what 1044 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 4: are we doing? How do we feel violence? 1045 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 3: Right? 1046 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 4: Because for a little razzle dazzle. But outside of like 1047 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 4: those scenarios that I told you about, which I feel 1048 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 4: like I'm mindfully chose, I come across some of the 1049 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 4: most amazing and phenomenal you know, and I date men 1050 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:56,080 Speaker 4: and women, amazing phenomenal women and men who cherish me 1051 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 4: and treat me great. And I think it's not just 1052 00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:03,400 Speaker 4: what you'll tolerate from other people, but it's the boundaries 1053 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,800 Speaker 4: that you set with yourself, which is which is your habits, 1054 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 4: which is you know, deciding who you are and not 1055 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,759 Speaker 4: wavering from that. So when I tell somebody like, oh, no, 1056 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 4: like I cannot go on a date with you because 1057 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,800 Speaker 4: I have to wake up at five am to meditate. 1058 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 4: I can't hang out tonight because it's a full moon 1059 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 4: and I need to ritualize some things. Those little things 1060 00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 4: like that teaches people that like, oh, she's got boundaries, 1061 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 4: Oh she's got routines, and I don't get the opportunity 1062 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 4: to take over her life. I get to integrate in it. 1063 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:40,399 Speaker 4: And that's how I approach relationships and partners is to say, hey, 1064 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 4: I'm whole and complete, and I like the variety of 1065 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,840 Speaker 4: other humans. Are you also that? Because if so, do 1066 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,760 Speaker 4: you want to orbit around each other for a time 1067 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 4: and so so? Yeah, I think for that it's really important. 1068 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,319 Speaker 4: And the boundary setting, I think a lot of it, 1069 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 4: and nobody wants to hear it. Is you gotta And 1070 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 4: this is like Christian work. You got to consecrate yourself. 1071 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 4: You have to step back and figure out who you 1072 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 4: are when people aren't telling you who you are. And 1073 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 4: that's what traveling got to do for me. I got 1074 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 4: to to test my identity and see how I show 1075 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 4: up in the world. Who are people telling you were 1076 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:20,160 Speaker 4: before people were telling me that I was anxious, that 1077 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 4: I was too much. I was told that that I 1078 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 4: was smart and would do well in corporate, that I 1079 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:32,439 Speaker 4: wasn't an entrepreneur, that because I decided to be a mother, 1080 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 4: that my life was over, that I was too bubbly, 1081 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 4: too friendly, and so I really would pack that on. 1082 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 4: And again it's not just partners. I remember I used 1083 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,160 Speaker 4: to have anxiety so bad that I would faint, Like 1084 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 4: I would just get upset and boom, I'm like on 1085 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 4: the ground, face red. And it was either that or 1086 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 4: like physical violence. And I remember when I came back 1087 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 4: and I had told everybody like like, I'm not who 1088 00:47:58,360 --> 00:47:59,799 Speaker 4: y'all thought I was. And I was on the phone 1089 00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:01,920 Speaker 4: with my mom and she's like, ooh, that sounds like 1090 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 4: a frustrating thing. You know. Don't don't go doing what 1091 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,760 Speaker 4: you're doing, fighting or fainting. And I was like, actually, 1092 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 4: I don't. I don't do that anymore. That's not who 1093 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,239 Speaker 4: I am. And she was like mm hm. And so 1094 00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 4: from that moment on, I started telling people, Hey, I 1095 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 4: cannot control who you think I am or how you 1096 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,359 Speaker 4: see me, but I'm telling you that that's not who 1097 00:48:18,440 --> 00:48:20,320 Speaker 4: I am. And you can say whatever the fuck you 1098 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,520 Speaker 4: want to say about me behind my back, but don't 1099 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 4: bring that shit to my face. Do not tell me 1100 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 4: who I am to my face. And when they did, 1101 00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:29,919 Speaker 4: it was a two year stint where I would be like, Hey, 1102 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 4: you're on that bullshit. You're telling me something that I'm 1103 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 4: telling you I'm not, and I would be like, I'm disengaging, 1104 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 4: and that's where the hr HO probably came from. I started, 1105 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:38,320 Speaker 4: I called it this again. I'm like, I'm going to 1106 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 4: disengage in this conversation. Please don't call me for two weeks, 1107 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,719 Speaker 4: and I will hang up anybody's face, mother, anybody, and 1108 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 4: I'll call back in two weeks and say, hey, I 1109 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 4: really love you and I want to move forward, and 1110 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 4: I think the best way is for us to talk 1111 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 4: about what happened two weeks ago. Are you ready to 1112 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,879 Speaker 4: have that conversation? Which is really hard thing to do, 1113 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,879 Speaker 4: but when you have fell to the depths of hell 1114 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,839 Speaker 4: and you're like, I clearly don't love mine and I've 1115 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 4: clearly chosen love and all of these other titles and 1116 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:10,600 Speaker 4: accolades over my authentic self. And you know how sad 1117 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 4: and how dark and how how like lonely. That darkness 1118 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 4: is what you were like. I will never go back 1119 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:18,960 Speaker 4: there again, and I will do whatever it takes. And 1120 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 4: so now my journey is every day, how do I 1121 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,799 Speaker 4: become more me? More me? How do I continue to 1122 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 4: test who I am and what I say and believe 1123 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 4: in that and what I've been able to accomplish with 1124 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 4: that finding of self has sometimes I cry because I'm 1125 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 4: just like, I cannot believe that I've been able to 1126 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 4: reprogram my mind and recreate this life in such a 1127 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 4: way that I'm almost unrecognizable. I look younger now than 1128 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:48,919 Speaker 4: I did in pictures when I was twenty three. 1129 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 3: It's insane that shit will aige you. 1130 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:53,839 Speaker 2: Not being happy, not living as yourself, showing up as 1131 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 2: yourself will damn the fuck out of you, Like you 1132 00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 2: will start looking like a different person.

I've seen like pictures of myself an unhappy relationship. 1134 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, bitch, you're not doing well. Yeah, you 1135 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 3: weren't doing well. 1136 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:06,359 Speaker 4: Yeah you weren't doing well. 1137 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 3: Who would you say you are now? 1138 00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:13,520 Speaker 4: I would say now, I'm free, I am free, I 1139 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 4: am authentic, I lean into that. I'm a nurturer and 1140 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 4: I am discerning. I think that I am wise. I 1141 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 4: think that wise enough to know that I don't know 1142 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 4: shit that kind of way. And I think that I 1143 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:33,799 Speaker 4: think that I'm a lover. I think I'm a lover 1144 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 4: of humanity. And before I was afraid of humanity, I 1145 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 4: was I was. I was scared of people and scared 1146 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 4: of interactions and scared of either they would take something 1147 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,239 Speaker 4: from me or reject me. And now I live my 1148 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 4: life not requiring acceptance of anyone, but also not denying that. 1149 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:52,360 Speaker 4: And I think that, like I'm like, damn, okay, cool, 1150 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 4: let's go, you know, yeah, and I'm myself. 1151 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what a beautiful journey. 1152 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:03,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I feel like this conversation is 1153 00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 1: so necessary, I think for both of us, and I 1154 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:08,759 Speaker 1: think for the people listening too, like knowing that like 1155 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,800 Speaker 1: it really it's sometimes it's just taking the smallest step 1156 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:17,120 Speaker 1: to finding who you are. And like I know, for 1157 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:19,920 Speaker 1: especially for moms, like you know, some moms, like we 1158 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,239 Speaker 1: don't have the luxury of like leaving our kids for 1159 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 1: four months to go find ourselves, you know, Like so 1160 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:25,839 Speaker 1: moms are like. 1161 00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:27,880 Speaker 4: Well, how the fuck do I do that? How the 1162 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:29,920 Speaker 4: fuck do I mean, I know, don't. I can't leave 1163 00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 4: my child for four months. 1164 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,280 Speaker 3: I don't know. If I don't, I couldn't. 1165 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 1: But I know that they're like even me, like today 1166 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 1: saying like, Okay, I need to create space in my life. 1167 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:39,120 Speaker 4: I've been it. 1168 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:41,600 Speaker 1: I have to create space in my life. I have 1169 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 1: to make it a priority, even if I have to 1170 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:44,879 Speaker 1: fucking schedule it. 1171 00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,680 Speaker 4: In my goddamn Google calendar. 1172 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,239 Speaker 3: And you will to do that. 1173 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: I think that that's really really important, And because we 1174 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 1: do ourselves such a disservice and suffer so much, like 1175 00:51:57,360 --> 00:52:01,760 Speaker 1: just avoiding ourselves and avoiding the work and not setting 1176 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 1: the boundaries. And sometimes boundaries can feel I don't know 1177 00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,799 Speaker 1: that word, and I think sometimes it gets a bad 1178 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 1: connotation of like negativity or coldness or heartlessness. But I 1179 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,799 Speaker 1: think you create so much more space for love and 1180 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 1: light when you have those boundaries. 1181 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 4: Absolutely. And one of the things that and I love 1182 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:22,800 Speaker 4: what you said. A quote come to mind is like 1183 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 4: everywhere you go, there you are, and people got to 1184 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,799 Speaker 4: so we gott to stop running from ourselves. But when 1185 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 4: it comes to that boundary setting, I think it's when 1186 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 4: you first start boundaries, you're like, ah, I get away 1187 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 4: from me because you're just like pent up aggression and 1188 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:38,879 Speaker 4: anger and you're trying to protect yourself. But I think 1189 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 4: the deeper you get in your boundaries, the softer you 1190 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 4: can be, and the more you can say, like, it 1191 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 4: doesn't have to be this big blowout, it can just 1192 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:48,240 Speaker 4: be you know, actually this doesn't work for me. Actually 1193 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 4: I'm gonna unsubscribe to this interaction. And you know, learning 1194 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 4: that is the game changer. So one of the things 1195 00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 4: that I mean, this is years of therapy and work, 1196 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,799 Speaker 4: but I learned that it's okay to be used. I 1197 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 4: want to be used. I want to be used in 1198 00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:08,279 Speaker 4: the way that I prescribed I can be used for. 1199 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 4: And so when I can say this is how you could, 1200 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 4: you can empty my vessel right and everything else is 1201 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:18,160 Speaker 4: off limits, then I don't have to feel like a 1202 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 4: bad person for upholding boundaries because you just were out 1203 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 4: of my wheelhouse. So when it comes to you know, 1204 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 4: people wanting to tell me their life story as I'm 1205 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 4: walking down the street because something about me just does that, 1206 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:34,240 Speaker 4: you know, And so then it's like, well, I feel 1207 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,440 Speaker 4: bad because I like, I'm a good person and I 1208 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,760 Speaker 4: want to help and I actually get invested in people's story. 1209 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:40,720 Speaker 4: But a couple of things. You get invested in people's 1210 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 4: story and their success, and they aren't always invested in 1211 00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 4: their own Yes, and so now you've depleted your energy 1212 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 4: and you could have helped somebody who is actually ready. 1213 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,320 Speaker 4: So that's why that boundary is important, because your energy 1214 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 4: is finite. So instead of listening to people's stories, I 1215 00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:58,440 Speaker 4: have a set of questions, and I'm like, if you 1216 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,640 Speaker 4: really want help, you can book a free fifteen minute call, 1217 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,399 Speaker 4: and then after that, I'm going to try to sell 1218 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:07,399 Speaker 4: you something a very expensive coaching program, and so very 1219 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:09,920 Speaker 4: like it just is what it is. So then now 1220 00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 4: I know that I can live in my purpose because 1221 00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:16,040 Speaker 4: I'm not being out of order by constantly being pulled 1222 00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:19,479 Speaker 4: to help other people. Because if we went to help 1223 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 4: everyone who needed us, we would never make it out 1224 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 4: of our front door. So we have to learn to 1225 00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 4: put our blinders on and to decide who and what 1226 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 4: it is that we pour out to and under what circumstances, 1227 00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 4: so that we can then be fruitful in how we 1228 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 4: show up in the world and how we give back. 1229 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 4: So boundaries isn't about shutting people out. It's about walking 1230 00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 4: in your purpose and in a way that will actually 1231 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:45,799 Speaker 4: make a difference in the world, and that is that's 1232 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 4: where my mindset coaching comes in, and that's where I'm like, no, 1233 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 4: let's just reframe that. It's not no, I don't want 1234 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 4: to help my mom pay her mortgage. It's I'm using 1235 00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 4: this money to send to Haiti because I believe that 1236 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 4: those kids are important and what they need. You know, 1237 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:05,320 Speaker 4: there is that I love my mom. That's just not it. 1238 00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:08,439 Speaker 4: That's not what it is. So so I think that's also 1239 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,880 Speaker 4: like boundary set setting, you know, one on two one 1240 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:11,360 Speaker 4: one o. 1241 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 3: Two one o two. Yeah. 1242 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's important too, like because listening to 1243 00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 2: your story and listening to what you're talking about. I 1244 00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:23,040 Speaker 2: remember when I first took the steps to like leave 1245 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,520 Speaker 2: my baby daddy. It was something like traumatic and big 1246 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 2: like that, and I went went played taughter what you 1247 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:31,960 Speaker 2: taughttered that line a lot. But when I first finally 1248 00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 2: got out of it and finally got powered and like 1249 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 2: like okay, I'm here. I took a long time to 1250 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:37,919 Speaker 2: get I knew for a long time it was wrong. 1251 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:39,800 Speaker 2: I took a long time to get here. I remember 1252 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 2: I went out with a guy and he like said 1253 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:42,680 Speaker 2: something crazy to me and my baby Daddy used to 1254 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 2: talk crazy to me, so I was kind of used 1255 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 2: to it, but I was so not in that place anymore. 1256 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:48,759 Speaker 2: I was like, my fangs must have come out. I 1257 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 2: was like, get the fuck out. I'm like, I don't 1258 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 2: know who the fuck. But I was just like, you're 1259 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 2: not gonna send me back to that place by any means. 1260 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 2: But I think sometimes in life, when you are programmed 1261 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 2: a certain way into certain things, you forget you'll get 1262 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 2: in new relationships that are a little bit different. They 1263 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 2: don't look just like that, so you're kind of like 1264 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 2: relaxed in it, but they still like cross your boundaries 1265 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:08,480 Speaker 2: in other way other ways, and you have to be 1266 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:12,840 Speaker 2: like constantly exercising and reevaluating because you can grow, but 1267 00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 2: if you let yourself get comfortable, you can still kind 1268 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 2: of totter and teeter into those things that are still 1269 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 2: not quite this but not quite what you need either. 1270 00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 3: So I think it's important. 1271 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 2: I'm so happy that you came like reminding, reigniting that fire, 1272 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:28,120 Speaker 2: like there was a place that that stemmed from, and 1273 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,799 Speaker 2: that work has to continue to happen and continue to happen, 1274 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 2: or else you can easily fall back into old even 1275 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,320 Speaker 2: if it doesn't look just like it. You're being abused, 1276 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,360 Speaker 2: or you be allowing some inneverbally abused you, or you 1277 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,440 Speaker 2: being so miserable you look ugly, but. 1278 00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 4: You were speaking for both of them. 1279 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was talking. 1280 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 2: It's still it's still always lingering, and you have to 1281 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 2: constantly be evaluating the people you keep and why. 1282 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:56,000 Speaker 4: Absolutely, thank you so much.

But not 1323 00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,560 Speaker 4: when they're possessive, and so you learn something from every 1324 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 4: single interaction. And that's why everyone is like, it's all good, 1325 00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 4: you know there there I have no no, no heart 1326 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:52,160 Speaker 4: feelings or anything.
