1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:01,080
Speaker 1: Dead Ass.

2
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 2: At forty one years old. I am in the best

3
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 2: physical shape of my life.

4
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 3: And I told y'all about that test that did from

5
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 3: my blood work, and when I thought some.

6
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 4: Of those foods were a hoax.

7
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 3: I didn't want to let go of the gluten. I

8
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,599
Speaker 3: didn't want to let go the dairy. But I did, baby,

9
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 3: and I've seen such a difference. Dead Ass, Dead Ass.

10
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 2: It all started with real talk, unfiltered, honest and straight

11
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: from the heart. Since then, we've gone on to become

12
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 2: Webby award winning podcasters in New York Times bestselling authors.

13
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,599
Speaker 3: Dead Ass was more than a podcast for us. It

14
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,839
Speaker 3: was about our growth, a place where we could be vulnerable, be.

15
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: Wraw or but most apportly be us.

16
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 3: But as we know, life keeps evolving, and so do we,

17
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,959
Speaker 3: and through it all, one thing has never changed.

18
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: This is a severafter dead.

19
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 4: Ass, because we got a lot to talk about.

20
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 2: All right, quick story time, I'm gonna tell y'all back

21
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 2: to I think I did tell part.

22
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: Of this story about how I I messed my knee up.

23
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: I think it was two years ago.

24
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,279
Speaker 2: I was the kids of football and I was playing

25
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 2: backup quarterback and I went to go outside the defensive vent,

26
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 2: I started running and I felt my knee kind of

27
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 2: like so now, I was like, that's not that big

28
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 2: of a deal.

29
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: Go home.

30
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 2: That night, knee swells up. So for about six months,

31
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: my knee was constantly swollen and I wasn't able to

32
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 2: get full range of motion in my knees. And then

33
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: you had took the test and you wasn't doing dairy

34
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 2: no more. So at that moment, I was just like, fine,

35
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: if you're not doing dairy, then I won't do dairy.

36
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: And I cut milk. The moment I cut milk, the

37
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: swelling and not only my knee, but my back went away,

38
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: and I was able to get more mobility. So I

39
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: started doing more mobility stuff, and doing more mobility stuff,

40
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: and stopping the dairy allowed me to dunk a basketball again.

41
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 2: And that's when I realized, this is not something I

42
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 2: want to do for a short amount of time. This

43
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: is something I want to do for the rest of

44
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 2: my life. And you and I have been on the

45
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: journey ever since then to get back to Earth.

46
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 4: It feels good. Yeah, not even karaoke, but.

47
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,480

80
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,240

81
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,000

82
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,120

00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 4: It's like a labor of love work in progress.

85
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 3: But it's also like we're not coming to you guys

86
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 3: with like this whole like clinical perspective, like that's that's

87
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: your research to do for your own health benefits, depending

88
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 3: on what you may or may not be struggling with.

89
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 4: We can only attest to what's been.

90
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: Working for us five simple things.

91
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 3: I just want to put that disclaimer out there before

92
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 3: you be like, well, why trot and they said, and

93
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 3: this is what works for us, and you can take

94
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 3: it to leave it, but we at least wanted to

95
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 3: share it because so many people have been commenting on,

96
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 3: you know, what we've been doing or asking what we've

97
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 3: been doing.

98
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 2: No, definitely take it, you know, pause because it works, right,

99
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: so don't don't leave it. But when we say this

100
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 2: is not a clinical diagnosis, We're not telling you based

101
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 2: on your blood type what to do. We're telling you

102
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: based on humanity. What works for ninety nine percent of humans.

103
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: The only one percent may be the tony rebel that passed.

104
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 2: That she knows because the tony rebel, I know, still

105
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: a lot. But that's the only one percent that is.

Speaker 1: Okay.

136
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 5: So Cristal had the CEO of honey Pot on her

137
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 5: show talking about why she sold her company, and I

138
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,039
Speaker 5: already know how y'all feel about this, but she was saying, like,

139
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 5: I love having money, I like having multiple house houses,

140
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 5: and she basically was like anybody that starts a business

141
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 5: should be looking.

142
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 4: To sell it to steal themselves.

143
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 5: So I think, I think I already know what app

144
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 5: you have. But op any any further analysis of this situation?

145
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: H I have an op.

146
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 2: My op is I understand why some people who don't

147
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 2: understand business gives her backlash, saying why would you sell

148
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 2: the company that you created for us for a black women,

149
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 2: by a black woman to someone who may not be

150
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: a part of the community. I understand where the backlash

151
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: come from because they feel like this is ours right,

152
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 2: But I feel like they don't understand that the idea

153
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 2: was ours.

154
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: The company doesn't have to be ours.

155
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: The idea was And she used a company for a

156
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 2: lot of good because not only has she made a

157
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 2: lot of money for herself, she's also contributed to the

158
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: community with her earnings. That's something that she does a

159
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: lot of And now that she has more resources because

160
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 2: she did sell the company, she can pay it forward more.

161
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 2: And I think we have to broaden our mindset to

162
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 2: what black entrepreneurship looks like, just like we did selling

163
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 2: Grandma's house. Right, it was a thing where you keep

164
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 2: grandma's house in the family because it means so much.

165
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 2: But no, what if grandma's house can give us so

166
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 2: much more by what it's value at. And I think

167
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: what she did with her company, she saw the value,

168
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 2: she saw an opportunity to get out and move on

169
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 2: to something else. And you never know, she probably create

170
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 2: another bigger company with the resources you got that can

171
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: help us even more. So my op is I'm all

172
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 2: for a shout out. You know, that's great, great business

173
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 2: and we all as black people should start learning how

174
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 2: to do business that way.

175
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 7: Yeah.

176
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 3: My opp is just that people need to understand and

177
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 3: maybe do more research on why people scale and sell businesses.

178
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 3: I think that's like a fundamental thing that's a part

179
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 3: of business. When you start a business, the main objective

180
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 3: is to grow your company to scale and then to

181
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 3: sell it. Now, I think the issue that lies with

182
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 3: some people is that they feel like maybe the integrity

183
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 3: of the product may be lost or maybe a big

184
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 3: altered because if it gets to the point where you're

185
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: going to have to outsource for certain factories or things

186
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 3: like that, then they worry about the product that they

187
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 3: love so much. And it's true as far as being

188
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 3: either diluted, water down and whatnot. So I understand the

189
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 3: concern about that, but also understanding that black entrepreneurs who

190
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 3: have products specifically it's a lot to get them into

191
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 3: these bigger companies where they can then do more, like

192
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 3: to your point, then being able to pay it forward

193
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 3: by using the funds that they get to help other

194
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 3: people as well or reinvest into small businesses.

195
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 4: So you know where we stand on business. It's just

196
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 4: you know where we're staying.

197
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 3: We be standing on business and we support black entrepreneurs

198
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,119
Speaker 3: who really have a bigger vision for their companies.

199
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the Honey Pot Company was something that

200
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 5: was needed in the space in the large scale space

201
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 5: because that badger seale douche your grandma will been using.

202
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 3: Since nineteen six or the mass and gilt, Yeah, the

203
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 3: what is.

204
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 5: It called the what's the Summer's eve?

205
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah?

206
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, she putting ACV in the tub. Still that's not

207
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 5: working out, baby, So honey pot is really solving an

208
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 5: issue for the girls. Let her do that for all

209
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 5: the girls. We colch. Somebody's uh ma'am a too be

210
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 5: doing that shit. Somebody's white madma put the douche away.

211
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 5: Get her some honey.

212
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 2: I also want to say this to shout out to

213
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 2: her because I just made a post and I forgot

214
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 2: her name. But the father of modern gynecology, it's just

215
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 2: been exposed that he became known as the father of

216
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 2: modern guy to ecology by operating on young black women

217
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:17,839
Speaker 2: who were enslaved. Yet, so to me, this is another

218
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 2: example of black women taking their own health and wellness

219
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 2: into their own hands and saying, we're not going to

220
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 2: rely on anyone else to tell us how to treat

221
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 2: our bodies. So I understand the connection that black women

222
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 2: have to honeypop because if you think about the father

223
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: of modern guynecology not caring about black voices. Now you

224
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,479
Speaker 2: have something specifically for black women. I get why there's

225
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 2: that feeling of like this is out.

226
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 4: Right, don't ruin it for us, right, And.

227
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 2: I do think there is a responsibility for business owners

228
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 2: if you're going to sell a business or scale a business,

229
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 2: to find a partner that's going to try to keep

230
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 2: the business as close to what it was.

231
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: So that all of the people who supported your.

232
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 2: Business can continue to get the care and the things

233
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 2: they needed in that business. So let's not act like

234
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 2: that's not part of it. And I'm pretty sure she

235
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 2: tried her best. Just like we saw this with the

236
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 2: mal company, we see this with Tad, we see this

237
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 2: with a lot of Now black women who have businesses

238
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 2: are getting backlash from other people who don't understand the

239
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 2: business aspect of it. There are two components. There's the

240
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 2: component that you own that you love your people, but

241
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: there's the business. And we can't cripple these women's business

242
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 2: because we have a sentimental value on it. Same way

243
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 2: we can't just dismiss our constituents and our people because

244
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 2: we want to make money. There's a balance, So let's

245
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 2: make sure that we understand both absolutely.

246
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 4: Love it, love it love it.

247
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, So we've been talking about we're talking about hell today. Yes,

248
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 5: has been talking about he's in the best shape of

249
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,439
Speaker 5: his life. Kaden's been talking about she's in the best

250
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 5: shape of her life. Even Matt, Matt's been getting reefing

251
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 5: the benefits.

252
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 4: Listens on to.

253
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 3: No, it's been it's been quite the journey, and it's

254
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 3: amazing to see how when you get to the root

255
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 3: cause of what your issues are, that in itself is healing.

256
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 3: So we're so accustomed to getting the band aids put

257
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 3: on or the quick fixes. But what helped me a

258
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 3: great deal was when I went to the holistic doctor

259
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 3: and had that blood work done. The name of the test,

260
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 3: because so many people were asking about the name of

261
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 3: the test that I did. It's called the alcat A

262
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 3: l C at the alcat test, and it's pretty much

263
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 3: a chemical sensitivities food test and went by testing your blood.

264
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: It's impossible.

265
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 3: You had to plug his thing is this particular test

266
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 3: per food group was able to tell me the things

267
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 3: that were highly sensitive for me and things that were

268
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 3: giving me the green light, like girl, you can have

269
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 3: all you want of this, but limit that. And I

270
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 3: noticed at first I was like, you know, this test

271
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: is probably this is cap Like, I'm like, they can't

272
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 3: possibly need me.

273
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 4: To cut all these things just to be healthy.

274
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 3: But some of the biggest things that I saw that

275
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 3: would cause inflammation in my body were dairy, gluten, anything

276
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 3: from the sea. So I could essentially be a pescatarian

277
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 3: because anything from the sea was okay, yeah, it makes sense, right,

278
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 3: dark chocolate or just chocolate in general. Something that was

279
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 3: highly inflammatory to me cane sugar you know your Island

280
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 3: girl again, like, I can't have my sugar cane. Like

281
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 3: so many things were heartbreaking for me. But I did

282
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 3: notice when I was preparing to film Divorced Sisters, I

283
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 3: really locked down, you know, for six weeks. I was like,

284
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 3: you know what, I'm get in the best shape of

285
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 3: my life possible.

286
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 4: So I to.

287
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 3: A tea eliminated anything from my diet that was highly inflammatory.

288
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 3: I worked with an online trainer who composed pretty much

289
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 3: a meal plan for me based off of the things

290
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 3: that I could have. The only exception that I had

291
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 3: to keep just because I needed the protein source in

292
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 3: the morning was eggs. So while my body shows that

293
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 3: I should stay away from eggs for the majority of

294
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 3: the time I did have eggs and moderation, and I

295
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 3: noticed that my skin.

296
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 4: That was the biggest one for me. My skin cleared

297
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 4: up so much.

298
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 3: And I would like to say that since I was

299
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 3: a teenager, since I hit puberty, I always struggled with acne.

300
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 3: I would have my bouts with it, you know, a

301
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 3: little before that time of the month, I would have breakouts.

302
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 3: And I noticed that my skin was the best ever.

303
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 3: I had no breakouts on my back, my jawline, my face,

304
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: everything was clear. Of course, drinking an abundance of water,

305
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 3: So drinking that gallon of water a day is not

306
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 3: just something people say just to say, that is the

307
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 3: way of flushing toxins out of your body. Working out

308
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 3: five times a week, strength training in addition to cardio,

309
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 3: getting in the sauna.

310
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: So we have the five things that I wanted to

311
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 2: take them through, the five things.

312
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: That we do. And the reason why I didn't want

313
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: to break it down.

314
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 2: So scientific is because everybody doesn't have access to that test.

315
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: Right.

316
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 2: That test is expensive, Right, The test costs a couple

317
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 2: thousand dollars, and if you don't have a couple thousand

318
00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 2: or sick that test. I wanted to be able to

319
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 2: get people some things you can do right now to

320
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 2: change right.

321
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 3: Well, I'm unsure what this particular test costs because I

322
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 3: had done a complete workup that was blood, stool, and saliva,

323
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,240
Speaker 3: so that compiled together from this doctor was about thirty

324
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 3: five hundred dollars, So I'm not sure what the blood

325
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 3: work alone would be. But I implore you to find out,

326
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 3: like reach out to your nearest holistic doctor or neuropathic

327
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 3: doctor and see if you can get at least the

328
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 3: blood work done. You know, it's an investment for me

329
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 3: because I said, you know, if I can go drop

330
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 3: this money on a trip or potentially something materialistic, I

331
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 3: want to make the investment in my health.

332
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 2: So some people don't even have a couple hundred dollars

333
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 2: to say, I always say, let's give them five things

334
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 2: that they can do right. The first the first five

335
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 2: things that I know that you can do was release stress,

336
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 2: drink water, exercise, change your diet, and get sun right.

337
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: So those are the five things. Number one.

338
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 2: The one thing we changed over the last six months

339
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 2: that really made a difference was we no longer wake

340
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: up and run to the phone. Kadeen and our first

341
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 2: thing when we used to wake up used to be

342
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: the minute I would wake up my eyes, I will

343
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 2: go right to my cellphone and I will check my accounts,

344
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 2: and I'm talking about all of my bank accounts to

345
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: make sure all the money was there. Then I reach

346
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 2: out to all of my my associates that I have

347
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 2: to do business with to make sure that I'm on

348
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 2: top of everything. Then I check my social media accounts

349
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 2: to make sure nothing I hacked into. And I started

350
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 2: to realize that doing that first thing in the morning

351
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 2: creates a level of anxiety that the minute you wake up,

352
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 2: the first thing you're doing is looking at something electronic.

353
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 4: It has to be done for the day, you.

354
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 2: Know what I'm saying, from sleep to just I'm up,

355
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 2: And that was all stress, right, So that was the

356
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 2: first thing. We no longer do that anymore. We wake up,

357
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 2: kadem will make I don't know if it's mullein.

358
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 3: Leaf tea sometimes so sometimes mullein leaf tea, sour sap

359
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 3: leaf tea. You know, we'll kind of also just vege

360
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 3: in the bed for a little bit, like it's not

361
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 3: just getting up right away, you know.

362
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 4: We'll canoodle a little bit.

363
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: Two other stress.

364
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 4: Depending on those are.

365
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 6: This is pre toothbrushing.

366
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 5: Well, this is a freak down nose.

367
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 1: One thing we will both do will be canoonling and

368
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: be like, I'm.

369
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 6: That's a fact.

370
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: Look I'm be looking at her like she was finished

371
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:13,879
Speaker 1: right exactly.

372
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 4: No, that's one thing we don't like. I just don't.

373
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: Do you remember why to It's also a gut thing.

374
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: There's a study that says you shouldn't even eat food

375
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 1: or drink water or.

376
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 2: Drink water before you brush your teeth because you have

377
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 2: so many microbiomes and things that sit in your mouth

378
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 2: while you sleep. So for us, it's just become a

379
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 2: thing that when we wake up, we just go brush

380
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 2: our teeth because we don't want that bacteria. I don't

381
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 2: want to that bacteria blow into her face or we're

382
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:38,160
Speaker 2: kissing each other.

383
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 1: So we wake up, we go brush our teeth.

384
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 2: Then we get the mullein leaf tea or the ginger

385
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 2: tea or whatever it is, and we go on the

386
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 2: front lawn because it's early in the morning, you know,

387
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 2: eight o'clock, nine o'clock, the sun isn't blazing yet, and

388
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 2: we sit on the grass for like thirty five forty

389
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 2: minutes and we just.

390
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: Talked to each other.

391
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 4: No phone, no phones.

392
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: We just sit down, no shirt on.

393
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 2: He may have on like a bikini top with some shorts,

394
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 2: and we try to get as much sun as possible.

395
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 2: We limit it to thirty to forty minutes because no

396
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 2: one should be baking in the sun.

397
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: And let's be clear about the sun.

398
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 2: Where you you are island, you love bakon in the sun.

399
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: For me, it's not good because I work out.

400
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 2: I can't sit in the sun and bake and be

401
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 2: dehydrated then go bust my tail in that gym, running

402
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 2: high incline, sprints and doing stuff. So what I try

403
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,160
Speaker 2: to tell people is you want to get thirty five

404
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 2: to forty minutes in the sun, not to the point

405
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 2: where you're drenched in sweat and you can't stand anymore.

406
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: But you have to get that vitamin D.

407
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 2: Most Black people these days have vitamin D deficiency because

408
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 2: we don't like being in the sun. And that comes

409
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 2: from growing up and your parents telling you get out

410
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 2: the sun, don't get dark. You're gonna be in the

411
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 2: sun getting dark, and no, let's get in the sun

412
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 2: and get dark. That's where our.

413
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: Muscles, our skin, our bones.

414
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 2: We developed so many nutrients from sitting in the sun

415
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 2: and also putting your feet on the soil.

416
00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 4: And put your crown.

417
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's like a connection that you have essentially to

418
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 3: like the earth center of the earth when you're there.

419
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 2: After that, we're gonna come in this house and we're

420
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 2: gonna work out, And the type of workout we do

421
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 2: is going to be very different than what people think.

422
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: People think that we go when we say movement, we

423
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: just oh, I do.

424
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 2: My high inclined walk on the treadbill for thirty minutes,

425
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 2: and I may do some hit workouts. No, we lift

426
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 2: heavy weights to develop strength in our quads, our thighs,

427
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 2: our hamstrings, and lower back because studies also show people

428
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: who have grip strength and strengthen their legs live longer.

429
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 3: Right, and they live a functional life. You don't want

430
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 3: to just live and be sedentary. You want to be

431
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 3: able to move. So I saw a video recently and

432
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 3: it was like kind of cool to see because it's

433
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 3: like you do a dead lift in order to pick

434
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 3: up groceries, You do a squat to eventually have to

435
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 3: get on and off the toilet. These are things that

436
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 3: people at a certain age are not able to do anymore.

437
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 4: You can't even open a jar say.

438
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 3: They say, most women, I think, by the age of

439
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 3: sixty five can't even open a jar of like tomatoes

440
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 3: because the grip strength is gone. So all of these

441
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:04,919
Speaker 3: things are what we do in mind, not just for

442
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 3: the vanity of it, but for the functionality and long

443
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 3: term movement that we aim to have as we age.

444
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 2: The biggest thing we did was we changed our nutrition.

445
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 2: We no longer wake up first thing in the morning

446
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 2: and run to eat breakfast. That's something that we were

447
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 2: all taught that breakfast was the most important meal of

448
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 2: the day. If you get you they started without breakfast,

449
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 2: that you can't have a good functional day.

450
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: It's not the truth. It's actually the opposite.

451
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 2: We've noticed that if we delay eating breakfast and we

452
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 2: get some work done first, minus the days where I

453
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,360
Speaker 2: got lower heavy if I got lower heavy body, I'm

454
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 2: gonna eat me something for that because then I feel lightheaded.

455
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: But in days where I don't have a lot of

456
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: heavy weights to lift.

457
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 2: I'll delay eating breakfast because my body stays in key

458
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 2: toasis and it allows me to burn fat. And then

459
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 2: the first thing I put in my body is not

460
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 2: a bunch of sugar. I'm not gonna have pancakes and

461
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 2: French toast with.

462
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 1: A bunch of oat meal.

463
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 2: All that I'll tell Okay, I'll take eggs and berries,

464
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 2: Bluebear reason eggs, that's it. I'll take drink my coconut water.

465
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 2: That's another thing we do. We started to eat drink

466
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 2: more constructed water. So rather than just drinking regular water

467
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,120
Speaker 2: from the tap or water from the bottle, don't drink

468
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 2: disanisny is like the worst water you can ever drink

469
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,719
Speaker 2: in your life. Get some coconut water, get some watermelon

470
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,959
Speaker 2: juice water, honeydew, melon water, like these are things that

471
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 2: may have some electrolytes.

472
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:30,959
Speaker 5: But you know what I learned because a lot of

473
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 5: just people who are I guess not well informed or

474
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 5: just not completely informed. A lot of people do like

475
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 5: colon cleanting, which I think there can be some benefits

476
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 5: to colon cleansing, But something I learned is that it

477
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,400
Speaker 5: depletes your body of electrolytes. It does, and electrolytes are

478
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 5: good for your heart health. So a lot of people

479
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 5: end up with like heart damage or heart failure doing

480
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 5: colon cleansing.

481
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,360
Speaker 3: Absolutely right, Those are not meant to be done all

482
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 3: the time, or it's not a quick fix.

483
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 5: I saw an influencer never I know.

484
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 2: When I played in the NFL, Right, they were talking

485
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 2: to us about colon cleansing to lose weight. A lot

486
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 2: of athletes had to lose weight in order, you know,

487
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 2: contract stuff. I gotta be down to two fifteen and

488
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 2: they talking about right before camp, I'll go get my

489
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 2: colon cleans and I lose like six pounds and I'm like, bro,

490
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 2: it's not supposed to be used like that where you

491
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 2: just use it every time we have something to lose weight.

492
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 2: If you're not at the desired weight, that's because you're

493
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: not living the lifestyle to be at the desired weight.

494
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 2: All these quick fix things ozembic, do we go v

495
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 2: the colon cleanse. Anything that's gonna quickly fix what you're

496
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 2: going through is gonna ultimately kill you. That's that's everything,

497
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 2: and that's we've changed our lifestyle with that. That's why

498
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 2: we wanted to do this so much, because it's not

499
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 2: about doing all of these super fad diets. Change your lifestyle,

500
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 2: make better choices. Do I still drink? Yeah, at night times,

501
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 2: I may have me a glass of wine. I may

502
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 2: give me some in moderation, Right, I may get me

503
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 2: a drink or some some rum with some coke at

504
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 2: the end of the night. But because I'm not drinking

505
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 2: a whole bunch of of high fructose corn syrup during

506
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 2: the day, if I have a cup of coke with

507
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 2: my rum at night, I don't feel bad. I still

508
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 2: may eat candy at night. If I smoke a little

509
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 2: bit of weed and I got the munchies, I may

510
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: get some candy. Now, my candy is not gonna be

511
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 2: five Snickers and ten packs of gummy beers.

512
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 5: Man, I can't even keep a bag of many Snickers

513
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 5: in the house.

514
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 3: Many ones hit better than the longing about its yeah.

515
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 4: Joints versus the regular joints anytime.

516
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 5: Absolutely that's been important for me, is like just trying

517
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 5: to change my diet and making just better choices when

518
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 5: especially when it comes to like snacks. So instead of

519
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 5: getting a bag of candy, I'll get a bag of

520
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 5: dried fruits.

521
00:23:54,440 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 3: Yeah there you go to mangos mango apples. Like that's

522
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 3: been really good too. But I do believe, like the boys,

523
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 3: for example, going back to school, I do believe every

524
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 3: maybe annually, you do like a reset. So back to

525
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,679
Speaker 3: back one tradition that my grandmother did with us every

526
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 3: year before going back to school. You know what it is, right,

527
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 3: You get your wash out, okay, and that's pretty much

528
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 3: when she would boil some herbs, little senna, this, that

529
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 3: and the third, and then you would drink the tea.

530
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 3: My mother would drop us to my grandmother's house on

531
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 3: a Friday evening and we would stay with her through

532
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 3: the weekend. And we had to make sure that there

533
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 3: was a toilet available for each of us because throughout

534
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 3: the weekend your body would pretty much expel all the weights.

535
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,400
Speaker 3: I do think like every now and again that's necessary.

536
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 3: But then you have to replenish your body with the

537
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 3: things that may have been depleted. So that's a good

538
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 3: point to triple about the colon cleansing.

539
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 2: That is, that's a really good point. I also noticed

540
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 2: that with people they make excuses. Right, it's expensive to

541
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 2: eat healthy.

542
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: This is a fact. Right.

543
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 2: We would go get a brunch on a Sunday, family

544
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 2: of six of us, right plus mom and dad a

545
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 2: family of eight and a brunch will cost us anywhere

546
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 2: between eight hundred to one thousand dollars. Right, Seriously, bunches,

547
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 2: think about it, bunch, think about when I think people

548
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 2: go to brunch, right, what do they have a lot of.

549
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 4: Oh, bottomless momosa drinking wafles.

550
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: So it's about one hundred dollars per person when you

551
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 1: go to you know what I'm saying. We go to

552
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: the farmers market.

553
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: Now, she spends three hundred and fifty dollars and we

554
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 2: have fruits and vegetables and food for the entire week.

555
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 2: So when people say like it's impossible to eat healthy,

556
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 2: it's not. Yeah, we got to drive forty five minutes

557
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 2: to the farmers market because there's no farmers.

558
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 1: Market by the house.

559
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 2: But yo, rather than driving to Sunday brunch with your homegirls,

560
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,199
Speaker 2: how about we all drive to the farmers market, get

561
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 2: some groceries for the crib, go back home and make

562
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 2: some stuff at the crib, and eat healthier.

563
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 1: This is where you can live longer, because once you

564
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: change your lifestyle, you be shocked.

565
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 4: Be shocked.

566
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 2: We walk into movies now and not only me, kids

567
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 2: be like, I don't want no candy.

568
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 1: It's like your body just don't get you.

569
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 3: Don't want anymore, and then you start craving the things

570
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 3: that you've been putting in. So we went to Mexico

571
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 3: with the boys for vacation, went to the Nickelodeon resort. Right,

572
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 3: all things there are catering to kids. So de Val

573
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 3: and I went there and we were just like, oh

574
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 3: my god, how are we going to eat? Because we've

575
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,439
Speaker 3: been accustomed to eating a certain kind of way, and

576
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 3: we would load up on breakfast mainly because we can

577
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 3: get eggs, we can get the fresh fruit and things

578
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 3: like that.

579
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 4: But after that, forget it.

580
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 6: Chicken fingers burgers, you.

581
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 4: Know, and that's just it.

582
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 3: When I came home, I landed, I literally was craving

583
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 3: a big.

584
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 4: Like kale salad.

585
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 3: I was that I need greens, I need all the things.

586
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 3: But everything was in moderation, y'all. You have to slowly

587
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 3: cut things in moderation. You can't cold turkey say I'm

588
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 3: gonna drop this, I'm gonna drop that, because you will

589
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 3: end up binging. By making small changes, little by little,

590
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 3: it's more impactful, I promise.

591
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 2: We can also talk about this. Though we no longer

592
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 2: plan vacations around food, A lot of people do that,

593
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 2: especially Americans. Right, We're gonna go.

594
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,880
Speaker 1: Somewhere and it's like they gotta a buffet for breakfast. Buffet.

595
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 2: It's like, why do we go on vacation and look

596
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 2: to pig out like this is the last supper. When

597
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 2: me and Kadeen did say, yo, let's get some eggs

598
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 2: in the morning, let's get some fresh fruit.

599
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 1: Will fast through.

600
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 2: The end of the night, and then when we can

601
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 2: get a really good dinner, we'll eat dinner. And what

602
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 2: we notice is that we're no longer on vacation bloated

603
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 2: and heavy and tire because.

604
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: We're sitting on the beach drinking like rum punches because

605
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: that's what we use.

606
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 4: Super sweet.

607
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, I think one thing that people may be

608
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 5: referring to because I know that there's there's people who

609
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,959
Speaker 5: are living in poverty who it is actually expensive to

610
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 5: eat healthy for absolutely yeah. And then there are people

611
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 5: who can't afford to go to brunch on the weekends

612
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 5: who think that eating healthy is expensive. But maybe it's

613
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 5: that it takes a lot more effort than what they

614
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 5: are used to or what they have capacity for where

615
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 5: they think they have capacity for it. Because most of

616
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 5: us eating vegetables is we eat vegetables that we grew

617
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 5: up eating. We can steam a green bean, a broccoli,

618
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 5: maybe a little cauliflower, maybe a kale salad. That's kind

619
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 5: of new to some of us that we might be

620
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 5: able to saltakee some of that, But what else do

621
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 5: you do? And now you got to figure out a recipe.

622
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 5: You got to figure out what's a good protein to

623
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 5: eat if I can't eat red meat, or like what

624
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,399
Speaker 5: kind of vegetables can I eat that won't make me

625
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 5: feel blooded? All that stuff takes a lot of effort.

626
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's crazy though thinking about that.

627
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: My grandparents were alive during the Great Depression, and what

628
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 2: I learned during that time speaking to them was that

629
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 2: when they were going through times where they were in

630
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 2: extreme poverty, they didn't just look for anything to eat.

631
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 2: They ate less because we really don't have to force

632
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 2: feed ourselves to eat four or five times. So, say

633
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 2: you live in a place or you're in a position

634
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 2: where financially you just don't have it. That was us

635
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 2: in two thousand and nine to twenty twelve where Kadeena

636
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: and I were eating eggs in the morning in grits

637
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 2: multiple times during the day because we didn't have the

638
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 2: ability to go to brunch every week. So it was

639
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 2: like eggs became our thing. And for me, it's like

640
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 2: if you live in a position where you can't afford

641
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 2: every single meal. It's going to sound crazy, but it's

642
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 2: okay to not eat every single meal. Like we have

643
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 2: to stop being gluttonous and just thinking that, you know

644
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 2: what I gotta eat, So let me get McDonald's. Yeah,

645
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 2: you know what, you don't have to eat. Get some

646
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 2: coconut water, you know what I'm saying. Get some berries

647
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 2: or something you can eat, and then it later on

648
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: to night, save that money that you have and try

649
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 2: to get some beef, try to get a chicken said,

650
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 2: you know, try to get something that has value.

651
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 5: Well, that's what I was gonna say. Like, it does

652
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 5: become expensive when you're trying to eat when you don't

653
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 5: know how to make vegetables, you don't know how to

654
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 5: use herbs, So you're getting processed foods. You're trying to

655
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 5: mimic what you already were eating, but you're trying to

656
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 5: do it in a quote unquote healthier way. So you're

657
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 5: getting ultraprocessed foods that maybe like plant based or maybe

658
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 5: low fat. That stuff can be expensive just because their

659
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 5: marketing is health time. Yeah, it's not necessarily healthy, and

660
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 5: then you still will end up with, you know, health

661
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 5: issues because this stuff has a lot of sugar.

662
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 4: It's got a lot of yeah.

663
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 7: No.

664
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 3: And it's also not even just what you're eating, is

665
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 3: the way you're preparing it, because you can have the

666
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 3: same meal with for example, using vegetable oil versus avocado oil,

667
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 3: and using a spray can oil versus liquid oil. Like

668
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 3: I forget which I was looking at something else because

669
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 3: my feet is like all health now, But they were

670
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 3: showing the comparison between you know, a tablespoon of olive

671
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 3: oil that you cooked with versus just using the spray.

672
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 4: It brought the meal up like.

673
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 3: Three hundred calories. So sometimes the way you prepare certain meals, too,

674
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 3: will also dictate how nutritious it is.

675
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought up the oils and understanding now

676
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 2: that we don't put the same oils in our food

677
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 2: that we did. We don't use margarine because all of

678
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 2: these things, even the idea of plant based. Do you

679
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 2: know why they call things plant based not because it

680
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 2: comes from a place. It is because it comes from

681
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 2: a plant. It's made with chemicals. People don't even realize that.

682
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 2: And what happens is it was when I seriously was

683
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 2: a marketing employer to trick people into thinking this is

684
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 2: healthier than eating meat. This is healthier, So let me

685
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 2: go plant based. So now you have a lot of

686
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 2: vegans now who are saying, man, I didn't know what

687
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 2: was in those impossible burgers until I did research and

688
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 2: realized they.

689
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: Use a bunch of chemical compounds.

690
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 2: And so and so with seasonings and salt and sugar

691
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 2: to make it taste like a burger. And it's like,

692
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 2: how healthy is that? It's not healthy? But it was

693
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 2: never meant to be healthy.

694
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 1: Just like why is Kentucky Fried Chicken now called KFC.

695
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 6: Not chicken barbe.

696
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 7: Islands barbecuing.

697
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 4: You can't best KFC is in the Islands, bro.

698
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 5: That's why, for sure that Anthony Bourdain said the best

699
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 5: KFC was in Egypt.

700
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 4: We've never it's on the it's on the bucket list

701
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 4: of things to do.

702
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: I do think it's important for us to understand, to

703
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: understand why food is the way it is in America.

704
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 2: Food has food has been used not only to manipulate us,

705
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 2: but to keep us in a certain space.

706
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 7: Right.

707
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 2: I don't know who's watched these documentaries like What the

708
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 2: Health and things like that, but I think it was

709
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 2: in the nineteen fifties when Big Tobacco was facing a

710
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 2: lot of litigation because people are getting addicted to tobacco,

711
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 2: and because Big Tobacco was under fire, they went and

712
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 2: got in bed with not the Drug Administration, but the

713
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 2: Food Administration. So now they created the same addicting qualities

714
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 2: and put it in the food and now they're starting.

715
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: If you read it up on it, it's like FDA.

716
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 2: Approves lab grown salmon now to be sold in restaurants,

717
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 2: attributed and distributed in America. So it's like, wait, so

718
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 2: if I just go to a restaurant and I just

719
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 2: order a salmon, you're able to know where it came from.

720
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 2: This is what's happening. So yeah, you might want to

721
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 2: start getting a garden in your backyard. I'm gonna just

722
00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 2: grow some cucumbers and some stuff just for myself, you know,

723
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 2: I'm gonna's And that's.

724
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,959
Speaker 1: What we're on now, Like this is the farmer's market.

725
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 2: It's pops tomatoes and Pops cucumbers back there everybody, and.

726
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: It is making those it's making those choices.

727
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 4: No, you're absolutely right.

728
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 3: I mean I wish I lived somewhere that was year round,

729
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 3: a little bit more tropical, Like I see why a

730
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 3: lot of people moved to Florida for that purpose of

731
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 3: you know what, I want to grow my own stuff.

732
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 5: I have a hydroponic garden. I grow food inside. It's

733
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 5: been pretty good. The one that I have is kind

734
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 5: of small, so I can make just like a few

735
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 5: little things here and there. So I'm getting used to

736
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 5: like what what crops do I need and how many

737
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 5: do I need to grow or how many can I

738
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 5: grow that can make enough for me to kind of

739
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 5: sustain stay on a regular basis. Right, But it's been

740
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 5: really it's been eye opening, and I think I'll take

741
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 5: it further. Like I know, I can get some like

742
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 5: garden beds and maybe grow things that grow in abundance,

743
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 5: like maybe some spinach plants or maybe some cucumber plants

744
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 5: or something like that that will that I can grow

745
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 5: in abundance outside of the hydroproduict garden and then use

746
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 5: that for other things.

747
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,320
Speaker 4: That Yeah, that's so cool.

748
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 3: I even learned when I went back to Saint Vincent

749
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 3: last October with my dad that farming was in the

750
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 3: curriculum at their schools. Yes, and that's where because I

751
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 3: was like, Dad, where'd you learn how to grow vegetables?

752
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 3: You just have this green thumb, and he was like,

753
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 3: I didn't just develop it. I was taught this, you know,

754
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 3: when I was growing up.

755
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 5: And we all should learn because you know, social services

756
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 5: are under fire, yeah, and the things are being deregulated.

757
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 5: The more we moved toward like conservative politics, the more

758
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 5: corporations are going to be deregulated, which means that the

759
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 5: quality of our food, the quality of our healthcare is

760
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 5: going to go down, down, down, and the prices are

761
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 5: going to skyrocket. So we have to be able to

762
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,800
Speaker 5: grow our own food and sustain on our own without

763
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 5: relying on corporations more and more every day.

764
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 2: As people, though we were never supposed to and I'm

765
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 2: just talking about all people. We were never supposed to

766
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 2: rely on the government for our health. That's on us,

767
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 2: you know, and that's on us to teach our kids better.

768
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 2: You know, if you start these practices now, you'll be

769
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 2: surprised how your children because I see it with my

770
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 2: four children. We go into the movies and it's like,

771
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 2: y'all want gummy beers and they're like, nah, not really,

772
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,920
Speaker 2: Like we have to take pride and ownership and what

773
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 2: we put into our body, and let's not forget you

774
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,360
Speaker 2: know why the sun is so important, K.

775
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: The sun gives you nutrients. Do you know why so

776
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 1: many people are hungry.

777
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 2: We've become a sedentary community where we're inside often, and

778
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 2: the nutrients we get from the sun, we don't get them,

779
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 2: so our body's looking for them. So now we try

780
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 2: to eat them, and we overeat because we're not outside.

781
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: We have to get outside and move. It doesn't matter

782
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: if it's the wintertime.

783
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,919
Speaker 2: Put a hat on, put a coat on, and walk

784
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 2: for thirty minutes. Getting outside in the sun is very important.

785
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 2: Now I'm not telling you to go out there and

786
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 2: bake like K. My wife is a freaking Thanksgiving turkey.

787
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 2: Should be outside for four hours.

788
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: I do it. Yeah, I can't do it.

789
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 3: Can't wait to be in W forty five forty seven.

790
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 3: I speak in terms of foundation color. When I used

791
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 3: to work at MAC, I was like, maybe I'm going

792
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 3: to vacation and come back in W forty five n

793
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 3: W forty seven.

794
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 4: I can't wait.

795
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 5: I love it.

796
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: I like, I ain't even gonna lie.

797
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 3: Like this, so I love I looked this up real

798
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,399
Speaker 3: quick because I do remember also seeing a clip where

799
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 3: they were describing or explaining where the whole breakfast, lunch,

800
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 3: and dinner history came from, and that pretty much was

801
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 3: largely a product of the Industrial Revolution and the impact

802
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 3: that it had on work patterns. So it sstorically people

803
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 3: only ate one or two meals a day back in

804
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 3: the day, like animals exactly, but with dinner being the

805
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:45,239
Speaker 3: traditional main meal that you would eat before or by

806
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 3: seven pm, right, because you want your your body to

807
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 3: also be in sync with the cart like Ocadian rhythm.

808
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,720
Speaker 4: Yes, so in order to do that, you would normally

809
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:57,399
Speaker 4: stop at seven.

810
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 3: But with the nine to five that was put in place,

811
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,720
Speaker 3: people started getting home later, eating later. So the shift

812
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 3: to the three meal structure with lunch becoming a midday

813
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,280
Speaker 3: meal for workers was driven by the need for convenient

814
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 3: and quick meals during the factory and office hours, so

815
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 3: we weren't necessarily made to eat no three times a

816
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 3: day plus snacks and all that.

817
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,439
Speaker 2: Look up how they came up with breakfast. Kellogg's made

818
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 2: a whole campaign, Yeah, a whole camp.

819
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 5: That's the same thing with the food pyramid exactly because yeah,

820
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 5: because of the wheat wheat production.

821
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, to sell it, So tell them that, tell them

822
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 2: that cereal is important thing that you have to have

823
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 2: in the morning.

824
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: They put a bunch of sugar in it, and.

825
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 4: Then it was got milk.

826
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:40,879
Speaker 2: It was got milk because you wanted people to drink

827
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 2: more milk, and then it was.

828
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 1: Just like your bone stronger.

829
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 2: All of these campaigns were all just social conditioning to

830
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 2: get us to spend money on things that we didn't

831
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 2: really need in abundance, and now we're running out of it.

832
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 2: So now we're running out of these things that we

833
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 2: ate in abundance, so now we're producing it, and now

834
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 2: you want us to.

835
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 1: Do eat the fake food like it's real food.

836
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 2: And then after we eat the fake food and get sick,

837
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 2: you want us to take the medication to fix the

838
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 2: symptoms from the fake food from the campaign that you

839
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:06,839
Speaker 2: made up.

840
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 1: And it's like, nah, you're not doing that no more.

841
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:11,759
Speaker 5: Way.

842
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 2: But that's really what's happening, and they don't want us

843
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 2: to talk about it, so we might get canceled.

844
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 1: Don't care because I'm not eating it.

845
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 5: So I have a request, and I guess everybody can

846
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 5: do this because I have I have one that I

847
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 5: would share too. But what's one practical resource that you

848
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 5: can share with people who are trying to make lifestyle

849
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 5: changes today. And it doesn't have to be something that's expensive.

850
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 5: It can be one thing that you can do to

851
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 5: motivate you to work out, or one workout you can do.

852
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 2: Go outside, go outside and walks.

853
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: That's it.

854
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 2: I'm twenty minutes practical. Go outside and walk. If you

855
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 2: have a hell even better, go outside and walk up

856
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 2: the hill. Start doing that every single day. And if

857
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 2: it's if it's a nice climate, take your hat off,

858
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 2: take your shirt off, walk outside and get as much

859
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,399
Speaker 2: sun as the possible. I promise you not only will

860
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,839
Speaker 2: you just feel better because the sun will be on you,

861
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 2: but I forgot what it's called in your brain.

862
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 1: It's escaping me right now. Dope.

863
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 2: Dopamine is a dopamine hit when you work out and

864
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 2: you just feel better. So you asked about what you

865
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 2: can start that's going to help you get super charged

866
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 2: to do that, Start walking outside in the sun, and

867
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 2: when you feel that dopamine hit afterwards, it's gonna be

868
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 2: like I can't wait for tomorrow to get my walk in.

869
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 2: Then if you add that to some heavy weights.

870
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,439
Speaker 1: Which don't got to be super heavy.

871
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 2: If you got like a twenty five pound plate anything,

872
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 2: and you hold it and you do squats with shoulder press.

873
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 2: The dopamine hit is gonna be like I can't wait

874
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,760
Speaker 2: for tomorrow, and then before you know it, my lifestyle

875
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 2: has become. That's why I think people in La to

876
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 2: be honest, look better. I don't think it's because it's

877
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:49,240
Speaker 2: the plastic city.

878
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: I don't.

879
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 4: I really think Miami is the same thing.

880
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 1: That's what I was going to say.

881
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 4: A lot of people in Miami look fairly healthy.

882
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 5: Because you can be outside every day.

883
00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 4: Yeah I don't have a treadmill. Okay, well you got heels. Yeah,

884
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 4: you got a running cannon or hikes.

885
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 3: You know.

886
00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:05,439
Speaker 4: I think my one thing.

887
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,280
Speaker 3: Would be cut the sugar man. Cut the sugar. Sugar

888
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 3: in the brain is dementia. Sugar in the blood is diabetes.

889
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 3: Sugar in the skin aging. Cut the sugar. Yeah, as

890
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:22,840
Speaker 3: much as you can, I mean, and you have to

891
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 3: understand it's not just refined sugars. There's also the processed sugars.

892
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 3: There's the carbohydrates that break.

893
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 4: Down into sugar.

894
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 3: You know, you go to your local western end restaurant,

895
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:34,680
Speaker 3: they're going to bag you up with one set of

896
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 3: rice and gravy, and then the protein is at a

897
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 3: minimum and it needs to be reversed. We need to

898
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,439
Speaker 3: have an abundance of protein, and then yeah, barely any

899
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 3: you know, barely any steam cabbage. So I would just

900
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 3: say that cut the sugar off, because once you do that,

901
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 3: you'll notice so much, so much of a difference between

902
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 3: the way you feel. It's going to be hard in

903
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 3: the beginning because your body will probably crave it. It's literally

904
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 3: an addiction that you have. But if you're able to

905
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 3: cut it and curb it, you'll realize that you don't

906
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 3: even want it anymore. Things are going to be too sweet,

907
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 3: Like I can't even I used to be able to

908
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 3: down a can of gingerrell or coke easily. Now I

909
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 3: take maybe a sip if I want a little taste

910
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 3: for something, But I stick to water all day fast.

911
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 7: That's me a lot of stuff, apple juice, orange juice.

912
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 7: I'll dilute it with water. Yeah, probably ten juice. Water.

913
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: I can't drink the same way we saw it with

914
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: the kids.

915
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't drink. I haven't drank soda really in

916
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 5: a long time. That's the one thing, because you know,

917
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 5: sometimes you can't cut all the sugar. You gotta cut

918
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:30,920
Speaker 5: cut one thing. You can get so I cut soda

919
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 5: a long time ago, but sometimes I crave like a pepsi,

920
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 5: like if I especially if I was drinking the night before.

921
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 5: So my birthday weekend, I got drunkie. Yeah, and then

922
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 5: I was like with my friends who came in town,

923
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 5: and I was like, I'm about to stop at the

924
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 5: store and get a pepsi and they shamed me so.

925
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: Bad that I didn't.

926
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 5: I didn't even get to have that pepsi. So, yeah,

927
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,040
Speaker 5: get you some friends that will shame you out of

928
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,919
Speaker 5: having a sugary drink. Is given accountability, but that's that's

929
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 5: not my resource. I think it's people. So when you're

930
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 5: talking about lifestyle changes, when you talk about eating healthier,

931
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 5: the Value said something earlier that was like, basically, we don't.

932
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,439
Speaker 5: People don't eat to live. You know, you were saying

933
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,439
Speaker 5: you don't always have to eat, like that's you eat

934
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 5: to live. We don't do that. We have a culture

935
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 5: of living to eat. We like to eat. We want

936
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 5: something that tastes good, we want it to look good.

937
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 5: We wanted to be savory and succulent, like the meat

938
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 5: that what's his name fed Geneva. Yes, I think it's

939
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 5: important to understand that you can do that with healthier foods,

940
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 5: And one way you can do that is just by

941
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 5: exploring new recipes. I love making a new recipe and

942
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:49,760
Speaker 5: I use a meal planner called twenty two Days Nutrition

943
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 5: inspired by Beyonce. It's the famous meal planner that she

944
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 5: uses vegan, that she used before Coachella and everything is vegan.

945
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,799
Speaker 5: And I've tried so many different recipes from this meal

946
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 5: planner and they're all good.

947
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 6: Are they really good?

948
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 5: They're really good.

949
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 3: I want to get I want to learn how to

950
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 3: like cook mushrooms more, and you know, things that are

951
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 3: easily not easily accessible, but things that are more but

952
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,799
Speaker 3: not meat essentially, like if I went because for me,

953
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 3: chicken is a trigger, I can have it in moderation,

954
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 3: so I want to find like a substitute for that

955
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,439
Speaker 3: as I like kind of transition out of eating certain things.

956
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 5: So yeah, I think twenty Today's Nutrition is like twenty

957
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,360
Speaker 5: five dollars a quarter, So that's like what ten dollars

958
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 5: twelve dollars a month, but you only get charged every

959
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 5: quarter and it's like unlimited recipes. It's super helpful and

960
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 5: it helps me to eat more vegetables because I would

961
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 5: just cook vegan meals at home, or I would use

962
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 5: some of those vegan meals for like breakfast or just

963
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,600
Speaker 5: lunch vegan or whatever. So I was eating more vegetables,

964
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:50,239
Speaker 5: trying more vegetables, figuring out that I like other types

965
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 5: of vegetables, and then being able to expand my palate

966
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 5: that way.

967
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot of it is retraining your palate.

968
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, spage of time getting into don't jump into

969
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 7: all these diet fasts as well. Yeah, a lot of

970
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 7: people burn out. I want to make the change, then

971
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 7: they try to do like a South it's not sustainable. Yeah,

972
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 7: you do all of that right away into the cold turkey.

973
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 7: It's like your body.

974
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 2: And we all grew up on highly saturated foods with

975
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 2: salt and sugar because you know, historically that's what families

976
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 2: needed to survive. I remember my family, like they're from

977
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,040
Speaker 2: the South, and no matter what it was, you put

978
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 2: pork in it, and you put sugar in it, and

979
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 2: you put salt in it. It met collar greens, stringbands, cabbage.

980
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 2: I mean we had cabbage and you would put a

981
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 2: slice of bacon in there. We would put some syrup

982
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 2: on it with corn bread, and now that I think

983
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 2: about it, we grew up during the time where our

984
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 2: ancestors didn't have much, so they.

985
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 1: Had to make it taste good.

986
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 2: Like chillens is not something you're supposed to eat off

987
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 2: of a pig, but we had.

988
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,400
Speaker 7: That's all they gave us.

989
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:52,919
Speaker 2: That's not something you're supposed to eat off of a cow,

990
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 2: but we had to make it work. Now it's a delicacy,

991
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 2: but I still also requires a lot of salt, a

992
00:44:58,520 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 2: lot of sugar.

993
00:44:59,080 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 1: You got to mix up the green.

994
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 4: I'm still dear, dear, dear, dear dear. It's about sixteen pound.

995
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 3: Last time I saw, I said, okay, lord, you know

996
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,439
Speaker 3: I'm not supposed to have beef nohouse, so you made

997
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 3: the super expensive.

998
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 4: Yes, the one thing that's non negotiable. I'm gonna eat some.

999
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 1: We're not going to sit here and act like we

1000
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: holy than that.

1001
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 4: Because I am not the pillar of We're gonna get.

1002
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:21,359
Speaker 1: Some biscuits at night.

1003
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 6: All that.

1004
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 1: We're gonna playing biscuits and spades, curry mutton.

1005
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 3: Like.

1006
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: That's what we're trying to tell y'all. Like, you don't

1007
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:31,880
Speaker 1: have to go eat no moderation, balance, you know, but

1008
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 1: take care of yourself consistent.

1009
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:37,239
Speaker 8: The most important thing I think is understanding what you're eating, yes,

1010
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 8: and and not be ignorant to what you're putting your route.

1011
00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 8: Like I've learned pause waiting for the moment. But I've

1012
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 8: been so proactively conscious in what I've eaten over the

1013
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:55,840
Speaker 8: past few years because I've trained my social media to

1014
00:45:55,920 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 8: also include the foods and educate myself on that better.

1015
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 2: Because of seriously though, like your skin looks better people

1016
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 2: watching you lost weight in your face.

1017
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 8: And I think part of it is just like not

1018
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 8: being ignorant to what I'm actually eating, but just taking

1019
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 8: the steps to learn that and then coupling that with

1020
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 8: the exercise. If you don't, if you're not conscious of

1021
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,720
Speaker 8: what you're eating. One suggestion I have is a Yuca app.

1022
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:21,399
Speaker 8: It's changed everything.

1023
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 5: Likes it.

1024
00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 8: If you when you go to the grocery store and

1025
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,480
Speaker 8: scan what you're eating, and you'll see that every single

1026
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 8: thing that they're giving us is bad for They'll tell

1027
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 8: you specifically what is in the app, So what is

1028
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 8: in the food, what preservatives they use, the health benefits

1029
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 8: the lack thereof with the symptoms of are some of

1030
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 8: the chemicals that they're giving us. I mean, we're eating

1031
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 8: as ADHD prone food food all the time. We're eating

1032
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,439
Speaker 8: food that is bad for our gut all the time.

1033
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,279
Speaker 8: We're eating food that's going to make us depressed all

1034
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 8: the time. And also add of benefit that it also

1035
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 8: gives you for like hair care products and like some

1036
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 8: of the stuff that we use, like loves to buy Dove,

1037
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 8: but understanding what doves you're buying could also have an

1038
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,040
Speaker 8: effect on your homeowns and all that. So I think

1039
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,440
Speaker 8: every single thing that they're giving us is they're trying

1040
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:14,280
Speaker 8: to kill us.

1041
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 1: They're literally trying too based.

1042
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 8: They're trying to get our money, but in the process

1043
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,840
Speaker 8: of it, process of it, they're trying to kill ourself. Pharmacy,

1044
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:25,440
Speaker 8: K in yourself on what you're consuming, putting in your body,

1045
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:27,840
Speaker 8: putting on I'm glad you brought that up because we've

1046
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 8: noticed the change too. We used to use Dove deodorant

1047
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 8: with the allument the aluminum in it, and it's like

1048
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,640
Speaker 8: every couple of months I would get like a swollen

1049
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:36,799
Speaker 8: gland in my under arms.

1050
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 2: Same thing with K and I said, I must be

1051
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 2: using too much deoderant. Since then, we started using native

1052
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 2: deoderant and native is all natural, there's no aluminum in it.

1053
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 2: And I don't smell, And I said, you know what,

1054
00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,319
Speaker 2: I've noticed even one days I forget to put on

1055
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 2: my deodorant because I don't eat the toxic food that

1056
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:57,720
Speaker 2: I was eating before. It doesn't see my Yeah, you know.

1057
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,880
Speaker 4: A lot of body odor is because of what you you.

1058
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:02,800
Speaker 2: And some people have overactive glens, though that's not for

1059
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 2: Some people do sweat a lot, but I'm just not

1060
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 2: a person that has overapped.

1061
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,200
Speaker 4: Somebody can't can't handle the people.

1062
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 6: Yes, you need it to.

1063
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 5: Be fair like you if you're a man, though I

1064
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 5: think you should. You should stick a little bit like

Speaker 5: They I'm gay, That's why I can't. Really.

1096
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,399
Speaker 3: And the last thing that Josh made me think about

1097
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 3: when talking about Dove is sunscreen.

1098
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we no longer use sunscreen like that anymore.

1099
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 1: Talk about it.

1100
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 3: Yep.

1101
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:10,000
Speaker 4: The uptick is screen didn't win.

1102
00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:14,240
Speaker 2: I think it was like thirty eight or nineteen forty three,

1103
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,560
Speaker 2: one of the forties, and the same time sunscreen was invented,

1104
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,080
Speaker 2: melanoma cases just went through the roof. Because the truth

1105
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 2: of the matter is when you put chemicals on your

1106
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 2: skin and then baking the sun, now you're baking chemicals

1107
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:27,640
Speaker 2: through your body.

1108
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 1: You drink alcohol sitting and baking the sun like.

1109
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:30,600
Speaker 4: You're on vacation.

1110
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:32,920
Speaker 3: You're drinking your little peanut colata with running it probably,

1111
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,840
Speaker 3: then your spring suntan lotion or spray on your body,

1112
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:37,400
Speaker 3: and then you're sitting in the sun put.

1113
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 1: A mosquito repellent on you.

1114
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:42,840
Speaker 2: It's yes, right, that too, and eating processed meats and

1115
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 2: the same You're doing all of this stuff to your

1116
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 2: body and saying that the sun is giving you cancer

1117
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 2: it's not, and expecting your body to be able to

1118
00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:50,800
Speaker 2: fight off.

1119
00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,480
Speaker 8: All this stuff all at the same time, it's taxing

1120
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 8: on yourself.

1121
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,560
Speaker 5: It's so true. I would say I would people to

1122
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:02,840
Speaker 5: understand the correlation but tween the skin cancer and sunscreen,

1123
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,000
Speaker 5: because I think too, there are other things that happened

1124
00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 5: after nineteen thirty six that made people more exposed to

1125
00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:10,800
Speaker 5: the sun, more exposed to diet.

1126
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, the environmental change.

1127
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 5: This may not be the sunscreen, and there's different types

1128
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:20,160
Speaker 5: of sunscreen. There's mineral sunscreen that is not chemical. There's

1129
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,360
Speaker 5: chemical sunscreen. So I would say do your research to

1130
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 5: figure out what we said.

1131
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,920
Speaker 2: We're not doctors, so we're not claiming to be doctors.

1132
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:30,880
Speaker 2: But what we can tell you is that in a

1133
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:33,239
Speaker 2: year and a half, we have not used sunscreen. I

1134
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 2: used chocolate butter sometimes and I have not burned once.

1135
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:41,239
Speaker 2: In college, when I was drinking heavy and wearing sunscreen,

1136
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 2: I burned.

1137
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:44,919
Speaker 1: All the time. That's that's just a fact.

1138
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:45,640
Speaker 6: Let it be.

1139
00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:49,920
Speaker 1: I wasn't burned like that. I was like, no, we

1140
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:51,320
Speaker 1: will go on vacation.

1141
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 2: And I remember my thirtieth, my thirtieth birthday, We want

1142
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 2: a vacation with Tip Steve, and we was drinking like

1143
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 2: we was.

1144
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,240
Speaker 1: We was going hamm like this is my thirtieth birthday.

1145
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 2: We haven't double shots, but were putting on sunscreen and

1146
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:04,360
Speaker 2: putting on insect repellent.

1147
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:06,800
Speaker 1: And I come in that night and it's red, all

1148
00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 1: under red.

1149
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 4: You don't want to skin the water to touch your

1150
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 4: skin and as.

1151
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 2: But cut to now, we go to Jamaica and I'm

1152
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,880
Speaker 2: outside with the boys at Dun's River and we're outside

1153
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 2: for three four hours and I don't put anything else

1154
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:23,000
Speaker 2: on but chaka butter one time in the morning, and

1155
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 2: I don't I don't burn. But I also I'm not

1156
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:30,439
Speaker 2: drinking alcohol and alcohol, right, I'm not processed foods. I'm

1157
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 2: out there drinking coconut water, you know, So there is

1158
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 2: other mitigating factors, which is absolutely correct.

1159
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,359
Speaker 1: It's not just the sunscreen, for sure, you do all

1160
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:40,799
Speaker 1: of that. Like what Josh said, your body can't fight that.

1161
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:45,360
Speaker 2: You're putting processed meeting your body pause, you're putting sunscreen on,

1162
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 2: You're drinking alcohol.

1163
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 1: It's like all of that combined.

1164
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 7: Like come on, son, Remember alcohol is already bad. So

1165
00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:57,239
Speaker 7: if you're gonna hear Hennessy or any dark room with

1166
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 7: a coke, you're just doubling up on the sugar. Sugar,

1167
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:04,319
Speaker 7: I know, get some coconut water, get some club soda.

1168
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,399
Speaker 7: If you drinking tequila, there's other ways to drink.

1169
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:06,919
Speaker 6: That's true.

1170
00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 5: Y'all know.

1171
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,400
Speaker 3: I love rum is my lover, but I actually have

1172
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 3: cut back a lot on rum and drinking in general.

1173
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,759
Speaker 4: I really just kind of like I'll be on all

1174
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 4: this step all right, y'all.

1175
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,840
Speaker 3: We hope that this episode helped y'all out just to

1176
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:26,320
Speaker 3: at least start thinking about it, having the conversations with yourself,

1177
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 3: with your loved ones, people around you, to see what

1178
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:30,720
Speaker 3: changes you can make to just be a healthier version

1179
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 3: of yourself. And we are going to pay some bills

1180
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,439
Speaker 3: and come back with listen letters. So stay tuned, y'all

1181
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 3: will be right back, all right, well back where our

1182
00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:53,880
Speaker 3: listener letter of the day. Hey Kadeina Devou. First, I

1183
00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:56,520
Speaker 3: wanted to say thank you for your representation of positive

1184
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 3: black love, black excellence and enterprise. I've been watching you

1185
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:01,400
Speaker 3: guys since the BK days.

1186
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 4: Thank you so much.

1187
00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:03,319
Speaker 3: Man.

1188
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:04,240
Speaker 4: We love our day Once.

1189
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 3: So, my question surrounds overgiving. My question surrounds overgiving in relationships.

1190
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 3: I recently started holding my friends and love interests accountable

1191
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 3: for how they treat me. Historically, I've been the type

1192
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 3: to perform to keep people around, and I've shrunk myself.

1193
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,120
Speaker 4: For decades so that others wouldn't.

1194
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,279
Speaker 3: See me as a threat. I have many talents a

1195
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 3: conventional beauty. I've often hidden both because to keep people

1196
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,160
Speaker 3: around me happy. I'm turning thirty one next month, and

1197
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:37,680
Speaker 3: I'm tired, as you should be. My parents and siblings

1198
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 3: have always made me reduce myself to serve them. I

1199
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:45,640
Speaker 3: come from a domestic and substance abuse household, and I've

1200
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 3: carried this into my relationships. But enough is enough now

1201
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 3: that I'm on my healing journey, I feel selfish for

1202
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 3: choosing me. I recently asked two people closest to me

1203
00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 3: to show up for me. Both relationships have ended because

1204
00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 3: of it. One friend hasn't visited me in LA she

1205
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:02,719
Speaker 3: lives in New York for over ten years, despite me

1206
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 3: sending thousands of dollars I didn't have on flights to

1207
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:10,880
Speaker 3: visit her over the years. Another only calls when they

1208
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,360
Speaker 3: need something, Otherwise they don't check in or answer the phone.

1209
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 3: I feel stretched thin. I recently asked both show up

1210
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 3: for me with presents, and I was shocked when they

1211
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:24,520
Speaker 3: severed ties. My friend from New York literally canceled her

1212
00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:27,320
Speaker 3: trip to visit me on my birthday once I mentioned

1213
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,400
Speaker 3: to her that she hadn't been showing up for me

1214
00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:33,000
Speaker 3: for years. Mind you, this was after a reschedule in

1215
00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 3: my PTO. Oh, she had to reschedule Okay, paid time off,

1216
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,880
Speaker 3: cancel plans, and agreed to host her second two year old.

1217
00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:43,640
Speaker 3: Who oh, she was gonna bring her two year old

1218
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,239
Speaker 3: who she never even asked if she could bring the

1219
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 3: other ghosted me once I stopped reaching out. Maybe I

1220
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,400
Speaker 3: shouldn't have mentioned to my friends my growing resentment before

1221
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:56,080
Speaker 3: she came to visit. She's always been no fuss when

1222
00:55:56,080 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 3: I visited, but the visits have always been on her terms.

1223
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,480
Speaker 3: She didn't ask me much about birthday plans and said

1224
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:07,279
Speaker 3: I had too many expectations when confronting her about overlooking

1225
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,920
Speaker 3: my birthday? Am I doing something wrong? My circle's getting

1226
00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:13,120
Speaker 3: smaller and smaller, and I wonder if the way I'm

1227
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 3: going about caring for myself is selfish. I want community,

1228
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:19,200
Speaker 3: but it just seems like community doesn't want me. I

1229
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:22,440
Speaker 3: work in film and tech, so I know these communities exist.

1230
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 3: But to be honest, I'm a little too jaded to

1231
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:28,440
Speaker 3: even try anymore. Help us us out bitter but better.

1232
00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, she handled that all room?

1233
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:33,359
Speaker 4: What did you say?

1234
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: She handled that all wrong? Yeah?

1235
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 2: Okay us because for decades she performed in a way

1236
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:40,759
Speaker 2: that she thought people wanted her to perform to appease them.

1237
00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 2: So what she did was trained people I was about

1238
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 2: to treat them the way to treat her. I wanted

1239
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 2: to treat her the way they wanted to treat her,

1240
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 2: and the minute she changed, they were honest and said, okay,

1241
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:50,880
Speaker 2: I don't want to do this.

1242
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:52,920
Speaker 1: You can't hold that against them. Miss.

1243
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:56,360
Speaker 2: They are showing you who they are. You bit the bullet,

1244
00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 2: and you were honest, and they showed you how they

1245
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:00,399
Speaker 2: want to treat you. So now you move that over

1246
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:03,200
Speaker 2: and now you create a community with people who are

1247
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:04,719
Speaker 2: going to see you the way you want to be

1248
00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:06,040
Speaker 2: treated from the very beginning.

1249
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's starting from scratch, right.

1250
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the only thing she did wrong was expecting

1251
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 2: them to treat her differently after she performed for ten years.

1252
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 2: You created that monster, you andable. Yeah, and now that

1253
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 2: they are being honest with how they want to treat you,

1254
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,720
Speaker 2: just accepted. Don't feel bad. But now you know that

1255
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,280
Speaker 2: they weren't really friends for you. They were there for

1256
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 2: what they could get from you. And that's okay because

1257
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:27,440
Speaker 2: you don't have to deal with that anymore.

1258
00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, they were friends with your representative.

1259
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, whoever you were showing up for or as in

1260
00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,320
Speaker 3: that friendship is who they thought they were getting. And

1261
00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:35,720
Speaker 3: the minute that you said, you know what, that's not

1262
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:37,960
Speaker 3: really me. You can't fault them for kind of being

1263
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 3: a bit jaded because they're like, wait a second, you're

1264
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,120
Speaker 3: not the same person that we thought you were. Yeah,

1265
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:43,680
Speaker 3: and these are just not your people at this point.

1266
00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:46,040
Speaker 3: And people are also seasonal, like not all friends are

1267
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 3: going to be with you for your entire life. You

1268
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 3: realize that people are around for a season and then

1269
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:52,440
Speaker 3: you can move on.

1270
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:56,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, she said she comes from a domestic and subs

1271
00:57:56,520 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 5: abuse household, which has probably made her hyper vigilance over time,

1272
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 5: which means that she's doing whatever she can to keep

1273
00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 5: people in a good mood. Yeah, happy people pleaser probably, yes.

1274
00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:10,760
Speaker 5: And yeah, you don't really make really good community as

1275
00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:13,200
Speaker 5: a people pleaser. You make community with users.

1276
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1277
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

1278
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 5: And also I think to your your other friends has

1279
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:19,800
Speaker 5: a two year old, so it sounds like she's prioritizing

1280
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,440
Speaker 5: something else for herself that doesn't really align with what

1281
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,920
Speaker 5: is going on in your life. So it's okay to

1282
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 5: get some new friends in La. Yeah, there's there's plenty

1283
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 5: of people around you that you can make new and

1284
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 5: really good friends with. It's not too late to make

1285
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 5: great friends in your thirties.

1286
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,680
Speaker 3: Where you don't have to shrink and be a version

1287
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:39,440
Speaker 3: of yourself that is dumbed down, Like go out there

1288
00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 3: and be great. You're gonna be thirty one, like these

1289
00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 3: are about to be the best best years of your life,

1290
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 3: So you need to walk through your truth.

1291
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 5: Yeah. I also want to see what she looked like,

1292
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,840
Speaker 5: because she was like, you know, I got my shit together,

1293
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 5: I'm real cute, conventional beauty.

1294
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:57,880
Speaker 1: That what you said, though, was true. She comes from

1295
00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 1: the household. That household.

1296
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,440
Speaker 2: She probably had the people please to stay safe. Yes, yeah,

1297
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,840
Speaker 2: and that's become her reality. But to be honest, we

1298
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 2: got to stop blaming other people. When we've people pleaded

1299
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,080
Speaker 2: for so long and they're like you acting different, You

1300
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 2: can't blame them for saying you acting different because you

1301
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:14,919
Speaker 2: are acting different.

1302
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 1: That's changed up.

1303
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:19,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, but understand that now that you acting different,

1304
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 2: they can act different too. So accepted.

1305
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, all right, Hope that was a help to you.

Speaker 3: All Right, moment of truth time. We're talking health. Today's

1313
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,800
Speaker 3: five help tips to health tips to help you live

1314
00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 3: a better life. I think mine is just you have

1315
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:53,880
Speaker 3: one body. You literally have one body. This is the

1316
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 3: body that shows up for you, and if you don't

1317
00:59:56,240 --> 00:59:59,040
Speaker 3: show up for it, it won't show up for you.

1318
00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 3: So do the best that you can for yourself, like

1319
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 3: you should want to be the healthiest version of yourself

1320
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 3: for you and for nobody else. But people will reap

1321
01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 3: the benefits. I think about my children, who, as I

1322
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:16,200
Speaker 3: grow older, will then have to eventually one day not

1323
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 3: take care of me per se.

1324
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 4: But I don't want them to have to.

1325
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:21,880
Speaker 3: Be inconvenience taking care of me because I didn't do

1326
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 3: my part while I was able to then take care

1327
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,760
Speaker 3: of myself and be a better healthy version as I

1328
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:30,240
Speaker 3: get older, so they're not I'm not relying on my

1329
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 3: children or my family to have to take care of me.

1330
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 2: I'm gonna piggyback off of what you said, you only

1331
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,760
Speaker 2: get one body. In other parts of the world, people

1332
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:39,760
Speaker 2: live to ninety years old and they're functional and they're

1333
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,720
Speaker 2: mobile and they're healthy and they're moving around. But in

1334
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,520
Speaker 2: America here we reach to forty and everyone acts like

1335
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,200
Speaker 2: you can't do anything anymore. That's not a fact. Be

1336
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 2: careful what you put in your body. Move your body

1337
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:53,640
Speaker 2: and love it the way you love them cars that

1338
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:58,760
Speaker 2: house them, clothes, them, shoes, love yourself them, brunches. Love

1339
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:00,840
Speaker 2: yourself the way you love those two real things.

1340
01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 7: That's health, baby, Yolo, you only live ones same concept,

1341
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:07,200
Speaker 7: but the opposite.

1342
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:09,520
Speaker 1: I get it. That is very true.

1343
01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:12,400
Speaker 8: Do your research, man, They trying to kill us out here,

1344
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 8: so say yourself facts, Josh.

1345
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:19,880
Speaker 1: Eisen, look the truth.

1346
01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:24,200
Speaker 5: Yeah. I was talking to my friend during my birthday weekend.

1347
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 5: She came down from Cincinnati, and she was saying, how

1348
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:28,000
Speaker 5: we grew up as black women. We grew up not

1349
01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:30,800
Speaker 5: really seeing black women like work out just for fun

1350
01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,560
Speaker 5: and like take care of their bodies like black women

1351
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:38,800
Speaker 5: are had historically been just forced to hustle, to be stressed,

1352
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:40,400
Speaker 5: to like do what they have to do, not what

1353
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 5: they want to do. And so it's really great that

1354
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:45,360
Speaker 5: we can have this space as black people to like

1355
01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 5: normalize especially black women, because men are like always into

1356
01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 5: sports and movement, but women are, you know, supposed to

1357
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 5: be domesticating and shit. So seeing Caneen in the gym

1358
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:58,720
Speaker 5: and seeing her body transform and being on the fourth floor,

1359
01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:02,000
Speaker 5: as she would say, it is very inspiring to be. Like, Okay,

1360
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,280
Speaker 5: once you turn forty on got to be you know,

1361
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:07,560
Speaker 5: whatever your body gives you, you can actually give back

1362
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 5: to yourself at that age. So I worked out this morning.

1363
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 1: A last time, but.

1364
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:21,120
Speaker 6: We'll try to do it again.

1365
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you should. Didn't you feel good though?

1366
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:23,439
Speaker 3: After?

1367
01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:25,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been working out. I've been backing in gym

1368
01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:26,240
Speaker 5: for like two weeks.

1369
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:26,520
Speaker 8: Good.

1370
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:31,840
Speaker 5: My moment of truth is I feel skinnier already period period.

1371
01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:36,960
Speaker 5: But yeah, it does feel really good. So we'll keep

1372
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:38,920
Speaker 5: it up. We'll check back with me in October.

1373
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:42,040
Speaker 2: All right, now, I just want to think pharmaceuticals, it

1374
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:45,600
Speaker 2: is not It is not a viable option to change

1375
01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:48,600
Speaker 2: your lifestyle, if you know what I'm saying. If you're

1376
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,960
Speaker 2: relying on pharmaceuticals to change it, then you're going to

1377
01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 2: have longer term health issuesercussions.

1378
