Speaker 1: boxes in the addict and kind of separating our stuff,
Speaker 1: I saw these videos that my aunt sent me and
Speaker 1: she had took them from a VCR, which is so funny,
Speaker 1: by the way, because it's a VCR tape, and then
Speaker 1: she converted it to a DVD. But now I don't
Speaker 1: have anywhere to play the DVD. We can get you
Speaker 1: a DVD player, because it's a me lip sinking to
Speaker 1: Shania Twain when I was in ninth grade, like, I'm

Speaker 1: feel like resonate with just so many people, you know,
Speaker 1: I can't wait to talk to her. Um. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: immediately in a better mood because I feel like today,
Speaker 1: you know when you just wake up in a funk,
Speaker 1: that was me today. I mean, I know I have
Speaker 1: a lot of life changes, but like it wasn't even
Speaker 1: because of that. I just kind of woke up like
Speaker 1: me annoyed. He can bring you joy though. Oh she
Speaker 1: for sure ken, I mean obviously, but her story is fascinating. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions because she I have
Speaker 1: a lot of questions, A lot of questions because she married,
Speaker 1: so she got divorced to her he was producer, got
Speaker 1: divorced from him, who basically he I don't want to
Speaker 1: say like he made. I hate when it's like he
Speaker 1: made her, but I mean like his he had a
Speaker 1: lot to do with her success and her sound and
Speaker 1: all that she made herself. But I mean he helped,
Speaker 1: uh you know, get it out there in a in
Speaker 1: a really thank you off um. But they got divorced
Speaker 1: and then her husband now was the best friend of
Speaker 1: the It's just like, how do I how do I
Speaker 1: describe the girl that he was cheating on with. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like a couple of best friends. And so they
Speaker 1: just like swapped. I don't know if I could do that,
Speaker 1: and like are they all cool? Now? That's like if
Speaker 1: I was like you you know what I mean, like
Speaker 1: you know, like you married Mike, Oh, let's not go
Speaker 1: that far. And then and then you know, I'm married Nick,
Speaker 1: and it's like that I don't know, but I didn't
Speaker 1: even imagine, Like I know one other couple that that
Speaker 1: happened to just like a you know, family kind of
Speaker 1: friend situation. Um, and no, they didn't hang out. I
Speaker 1: mean I didn't hang out. And you wonder like, was
Speaker 1: there like those kind of you know, underlying feelings. Well
Speaker 1: obviously for for her ex husband and the woman obviously,
Speaker 1: because I mean they were but then again, maybe she
Speaker 1: had the feelings too though for him. I'm saying it
Speaker 1: might have been something there already. See that's like so
Speaker 1: interesting to me because that would eat me up every
Speaker 1: time I'm like, oh we had that like game night,
Speaker 1: like were you given giving each other eyes? And then
Speaker 1: was I giving the other guy eyes? Like? I mean,
Speaker 1: I love how things always work out, but it is interesting.
Speaker 1: I would just trust you know, that was probably like
Speaker 1: God's plan from the beginning and we just have to
Speaker 1: roll with it. Right. Oh, that'd be a hard one
Speaker 1: to I'm all about God's plan and I am all
Speaker 1: about God's plans too, but I I you know, my
Speaker 1: X ends up with one of my best friends, that's
Speaker 1: going to be a really hard I'm pretty sure that's
Speaker 1: not gonna that will never happen. Maybe it's God's plans.
Speaker 1: All right, take it back, But I'm saying she's so happy,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean for her to be with him,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, you know, do we know how
Speaker 1: long after she got with the man? No, I don't

Speaker 1: to be doing your residency in Vegas. How excited are
Speaker 1: you just to get back, especially with everything that's been
Speaker 1: going on the last year or so well, I mean
Speaker 1: it's already been over a year. I was, you know,
Speaker 1: just doing my show in Vegas and in March Plug
Speaker 1: got pulled, like you know, for every like everybody else,
Speaker 1: and I never got a chance to say goodbye to
Speaker 1: the fans, to the you know, to the dancers, to
Speaker 1: the band, to the crew. So um, I'm just ready
Speaker 1: to get back and get in a big hug, I mean,
Speaker 1: just like you know, old fashioned hug and have fun
Speaker 1: again and and be together for sure. I mean, what's
Speaker 1: what makes this different this time around? I mean what, like,
Speaker 1: obviously it's been a while since you've gone out and performed,
Speaker 1: but is there something where you're just gonna are you
Speaker 1: gonna like take it in a little bit more, or
Speaker 1: is there one thing that you're just like really looking
Speaker 1: forward to to doing again. I mean, I've missed Vegas,
Speaker 1: and I mean I'm like I say, like I'm I've
Speaker 1: been lonely for Vegas and does not make any sense really,
Speaker 1: but um, I've just missed uh being in the spirit
Speaker 1: of Las Vegas and on the stage sharing what I
Speaker 1: love and what I do. I mean, I've created this
Speaker 1: show and all this fashion and all this um music
Speaker 1: and design, and I'm not able to share it. So
Speaker 1: there's nothing more frustrating than that. So um, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a big relief. It's gonna be I think it'll
Speaker 1: be emotional too. Um, just being able to reconnect with
Speaker 1: everybody again. And and I've even got like a little
Speaker 1: another little party share in the show. So are you
Speaker 1: guys already rehearsing or will you all have to wait
Speaker 1: a little while or how wout that work this go around? Um,
Speaker 1: I'll go into rehearsals probably um late November, and um yeah,
Speaker 1: and then all the and ends. I'm going to be
Speaker 1: adding a little you know, like holiday spirit to the
Speaker 1: show as well. Being December and my first you know
Speaker 1: time back after so long, so I'll be doing something
Speaker 1: holiday in there which will be just great and heartfelt.
Speaker 1: And then oh and then in February, she scored me,
Speaker 1: I have more shows in February, and I'm going to
Speaker 1: do a very like romantic theme show on Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1: So I'm just busy being like anxious and impatient about
Speaker 1: getting back and coming up with more things to add
Speaker 1: in the show. Um. So on a personal note, I'm
Speaker 1: I'm going through a divorce right now, and obviously I
Speaker 1: know that we share that in common. Is there one
Speaker 1: thing that you can tell me or that something that
Speaker 1: helped you kind of regain your confidence, regain your energy
Speaker 1: and your light again after um that you know that breakup.
Speaker 1: Oh that's I'm sorry to hear that. Um. Even you
Speaker 1: know sometimes it's for the better to be a part
Speaker 1: and you know, not to not be together. But um,
Speaker 1: even just through this COVID bit, I would say that
Speaker 1: my advice is to search for your own Um. I
Speaker 1: mean I always used the word escape because I like
Speaker 1: to get You know, you've got to use your imagination.
Speaker 1: You have to dig deep and say, okay, where is
Speaker 1: my happy place? And um, get yourself unstuck. There's no
Speaker 1: easy way and you're the only person that can do it.
Speaker 1: So I don't know if you're stuck, but um, I
Speaker 1: certainly was when I got divorced. And I know a
Speaker 1: lot of people feel stuck now with this COVID and
Speaker 1: um the isolation and all the limitations. So we have
Speaker 1: I go to music, for example, So I turned to music.
Speaker 1: That is my inspiration. That is where I say, Okay,
Speaker 1: I want to feel happy. I need to feel happy,
Speaker 1: I need to feel good, I need to feel confident,
Speaker 1: I need to feel uplifted. And I go to music.
Speaker 1: That's my medicine. Yeah, I love that. And when you
Speaker 1: weren't able to go to music for those years when
Speaker 1: you took the break, Like what, um did you feel
Speaker 1: lost or what other things did you do to like,
Speaker 1: you know, find your your identity and like find yourself again.
Speaker 1: I always go to whatever it is that makes me
Speaker 1: feel happy. And sometimes it's just um the roses. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know what that might sound really like corny, but
Speaker 1: I love that, you know, being in nature. My child
Speaker 1: at the time when I lost comes a new mom.
Speaker 1: So um, I just dove into being the best mom
Speaker 1: I could and loving that. And I think and I
Speaker 1: filled up. I think wherever your gaps are or your
Speaker 1: um emptiness is, you have to fill out up with
Speaker 1: other things. You just um, you got to fill them
Speaker 1: up with things that make you feel good. And what
Speaker 1: about when you know that new relationship or that new
Speaker 1: kind of like flirt comes in, Like was it hard
Speaker 1: for you to open yourself back up again to that?
Speaker 1: Because I feel like I'm like, I'm excited, and I
Speaker 1: know that I deserve that because I haven't had I
Speaker 1: haven't been happy for a really long time. But I
Speaker 1: also am like I get scared because like, oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: is it too soon or like you know, should so
Speaker 1: it's like I'm I'm I'm almost like fighting with myself
Speaker 1: when it's like, why shouldn't I just be you know,
Speaker 1: will allow that flirt to happen or allow this to
Speaker 1: like come into my life. So I'm just curious, like
Speaker 1: how you went away through that. I think it's a
Speaker 1: I personally think it's a good thing to care about
Speaker 1: yourself enough to hum, I'm all into something that's going
Speaker 1: to make you unhappy again, I would say, focus on
Speaker 1: yourself and if you're not, even if you're I just
Speaker 1: think patience is a great great thing to exercise. And
Speaker 1: when you're falling in love again and it's all moven fun. Um,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think sometimes waiting a little bit
Speaker 1: is a good thing. It makes you dream more, makes
Speaker 1: it even better in the end. And I say, don't rush.
Speaker 1: If you're not fighting, If you're fighting with yourself, um,
Speaker 1: you're probably maybe not ready. I just I would say earlier,
Speaker 1: how when I was twelve years old or not twelve
Speaker 1: years old, I was like fourteen fifteen, I was I
Speaker 1: lip synced one of your songs because I used to
Speaker 1: do like these like stupid videos because I wanted to
Speaker 1: be a country singer. And I I have a DVD
Speaker 1: of me lip syncing to your songs and my mom's
Speaker 1: prom dress, and so the fact that I'm even like
Speaker 1: talking to and just told you that story, like I'm humiliated,
Speaker 1: but you know, I I love how you because you know,
Speaker 1: I did country music for like you know, I still do.
Speaker 1: But I I love the fact that, like you didn't
Speaker 1: make any apologies for your sound and at the time,
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, everyone thought that you were so poppy,
Speaker 1: and it's like, now I listened to your song, I'm
Speaker 1: like you were so country, you know, compared to what
Speaker 1: it is now, but you just didn't care. And I
Speaker 1: love that about you, and I just I yeah, but
Speaker 1: I like what you said about the Brad Pitt. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we want to know, like in that you know, the
Speaker 1: one sentence in the in your song about who do
Speaker 1: you think you are? Brad Pitt? Like how did you
Speaker 1: choose at Pit out of like all of the famous
Speaker 1: men you know during that time? And we think it's
Speaker 1: so crazy because it's still resonates today because he's still
Speaker 1: so great and so hot, Like how did how did
Speaker 1: you choose him? I mean I was thinking with a
Speaker 1: smile on my face, and how I mean the most
Speaker 1: obvious you know, I mean still now, but even in
Speaker 1: that moment, it's like, Okay, who is the most obvious
Speaker 1: guy that everybody is obviously impressed with. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: Brad Pitt or it was for me. Um. And so
Speaker 1: I did that, you know, with a sense of humor
Speaker 1: and certainly no insult Bradfitt know you know, Um, So
Speaker 1: it was it was a little bit of an indulgence
Speaker 1: in sense of humor and just having fun with that.
Speaker 1: I mean, of course, even a rocket scientist or you
Speaker 1: already know, it's very very instive. Um. And bradfat was
Speaker 1: on my mind. He was going through a lot of like, um,
Speaker 1: a lot of tabloid pressure and all that sort of thing,
Speaker 1: and I just thought, there's nothing like a bit of
Speaker 1: comic relief and just have a little bit of a
Speaker 1: laugh and some fun with lyrics. I mean it even
Speaker 1: works to this day. So that's so great because it's
Speaker 1: like you could have picked someone that wasn't you know,
Speaker 1: I mean he might have been a star then, but
Speaker 1: he wouldn't be you know, So like you did great
Speaker 1: on that Evergreen. Is there a song that you have
Speaker 1: a hard time singing? Oh my gosh, of my own
Speaker 1: or anything of your own that like either you don't
Speaker 1: like or you are just like it it because it's
Speaker 1: or it hits you and it reminds you of something.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, you're still the one can do that to something.
Speaker 1: And because it was so true in the moment, I
Speaker 1: really felt that way. And so sometimes when I'm singing
Speaker 1: and I'm like, Okay, I don't really mean that same
Speaker 1: way anymore, and I have to Um, it doesn't mean
Speaker 1: the same thing either to me now, so I have
Speaker 1: to find another reason to believe in the song. So
Speaker 1: I'm genuine when I'm singing it, right, if you're when
Speaker 1: your life has changed, Um, you have to find another
Speaker 1: another reason, another meaning behind the sentiment. And for me, honestly,
Speaker 1: so many people have gotten married to that song and
Speaker 1: engaged to that song and are celebrating anniversaries to still
Speaker 1: the one that it's a renewed emotion for me to
Speaker 1: know that people have taken it on as their own story,
Speaker 1: and I kind of feel like I've written it for
Speaker 1: for all of them. It's a it's a funny. It's
Speaker 1: a funny thing that once you share your your music,
Speaker 1: it belongs to the listener. M and that has made
Speaker 1: it easier for me with that song. But yeah, so
Speaker 1: I have to get into I have to go through
Speaker 1: that um process. When I'm doing it, every once in
Speaker 1: a while it does grab me. That's a good tip
Speaker 1: because this other well, like a week ago, I was
Speaker 1: I played my first show and I didn't realize how
Speaker 1: many songs were tied to my ex and we started
Speaker 1: playing a song and it was, you know, it was
Speaker 1: my song called love like I Still Believe in You,
Speaker 1: and I just I looked at my guitar guitar player
Speaker 1: and I couldn't, like I was, I physically couldn't saying.
Speaker 1: I just started crying and I was just like, we
Speaker 1: gotta stop the song because I'm like, I don't and
Speaker 1: it was I was so embarrassed. But it's like, you
Speaker 1: don't know how like how close those songs are, do
Speaker 1: you when you write them and you sing them and
Speaker 1: you perform them, and like who they remind you of? Too?
Speaker 1: So I like how you are able to change that.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's better to let it out anyway. And
Speaker 1: then I think that once it, once it goes, I
Speaker 1: just don't have a lot of back game again, you know,
Speaker 1: just let that stuff flow. I and I think that
Speaker 1: those I think those songs just take on your meaning.
Speaker 1: I really do. And then once they do, it's, um,
Speaker 1: there's a whole other light on it. And like I said,
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's that it's what it means
Speaker 1: to the fans. Really, Um, that matters so much to me. Now, um,
Speaker 1: I've had so many great stories. I just I just
Speaker 1: heard this populous storage. I gotta share it with you. Okay,
Speaker 1: perfect example. So from this moment on, oh no, even
Speaker 1: better now okay, because this has happened, but from the
Speaker 1: smullment on as well. But man, I feel like a woman. Okay,
Speaker 1: so this lady, this is her first baby she puts on, Man,
Speaker 1: I feel like a woman, lasting it during her delivery
Speaker 1: and of course screaming along with it during her pains
Speaker 1: and has a baby girl. I'm thinking, Okay, I mean
Speaker 1: now I'm never gonna see that on me the same again.
Speaker 1: So this is kind of what I'm meaning. You know,
Speaker 1: the songs take on meanings and new purpose as they evolved,
Speaker 1: and you know it's usually the fans that decide that.
Speaker 1: So there you go. Now I feel like a woman.
Speaker 1: I can just see this little girl coming into the world.
Speaker 1: Kicking and screaming, strong and healthy. Well you're any man
Speaker 1: of mine. I mean it was our sorority theme song
Speaker 1: UM from n to two thousand and we would clear
Speaker 1: a dance floor and we would go out there and
Speaker 1: stomp our feet and honestly, like it gave us this
Speaker 1: sense of like, yeah, you know, like we're not going
Speaker 1: to just let any guy into our lives, and like
Speaker 1: I think it just like help these year olds, like
Speaker 1: you know, for their future. So you bring me so
Speaker 1: much joy, Like every time I hear that song, I
Speaker 1: think of those times, Well, thank you. I love that
Speaker 1: story and I love all you know. These stories is
Speaker 1: what really mix the music carry on and makes it
Speaker 1: fun for me every night too, because I mean, listen,
Speaker 1: you know you're out there and you're doing the same
Speaker 1: songs year after year after year, and what keeps them
Speaker 1: fresh as the audience. That's what makes it fun, haven't
Speaker 1: I You know, I gotta give you props too, because
Speaker 1: I've been I've been told like get on TikTok, get
Speaker 1: on TikTok. I'm like, I don't understand it. I don't
Speaker 1: want to do it, Like there's just too much. I've
Speaker 1: got two kids, like I don't have time. But then
Speaker 1: I saw that you were on TikTok. I was like,

Speaker 1: my pajamas. There's butterfly print on the pajamas. And if

Speaker 1: Do you feel about that? I mean, I definitely hear that. Um,
Speaker 1: And I how do I say this? I I mean,
Speaker 1: I've talked to you girls. I'm like, Okay, this person's
Speaker 1: maybe slid into my DM or you know, I've had
Speaker 1: a few d M slips, um. And you know, I
Speaker 1: I spent the first month, like you know, just grinding
Speaker 1: it out, reading books, crying, and I know I still
Speaker 1: have a lot of time to like, you know, process
Speaker 1: all of this stuff, and I don't want to get
Speaker 1: into anything right away. But I also feel like if
Speaker 1: there's someone beautiful that comes into my life, that I
Speaker 1: don't wanna be like, oh well, it's too soon, do
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Like, I just because it's
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where I'm like, I have
Speaker 1: not been happy for so long that I I deserve
Speaker 1: to be happy like I deserve And it's like, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: you know, I just got divorced. But if there's someone
Speaker 1: amazing that comes into my life, I want like, I
Speaker 1: don't want to be like, oh well, the book says
Speaker 1: that it's too soon, you know, like people say my
Speaker 1: friends say this says and it's like I don't want
Speaker 1: to like, yes, I know I need time to myself
Speaker 1: and I know, but I also don't want to miss
Speaker 1: out on something amazing because you're saying, like listening to
Speaker 1: you know, people tell you that there has to be
Speaker 1: like six months or whatever it is. Because honestly, when
Speaker 1: people say, you know, take time, well what is that time?
Speaker 1: Like how long is that time? They don't even have
Speaker 1: any answer to that. You know, I think that it's
Speaker 1: not a time frame. I think it's just a feeling. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I do get it, Like I I have been
Speaker 1: that person. It's like I don't like being alone, but
Speaker 1: I have noticed the last month I love being alone,
Speaker 1: like I love like my own space. And it's like
Speaker 1: I'm so happy to hear that. I knowld you, I
Speaker 1: told you would love it. I know. It's even it's like,
Speaker 1: you know, you guys have been amazing, but other people
Speaker 1: have been like, hey, like I'll come over tonight. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm actually good, like I kind of just want to
Speaker 1: like chill, but no, so I've I've genuinely enjoyed my loads,
Speaker 1: like my alone time, you know, and I have you know,
Speaker 1: you know, I say no, I'm just it's it's it's
Speaker 1: one of those things where if I'm not going to
Speaker 1: say no to an opportunity, if my heart feels that
Speaker 1: they could be a good fit in my life and
Speaker 1: someone that is a beautiful addition that could be in
Speaker 1: a beautiful addition to me in my kids lives, and
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be like, oh, well, you know, I
Speaker 1: have to wait this certain amount of time. It's like
Speaker 1: if they fit into my life, and I'll take it slow,
Speaker 1: like I'm not gonna like get engaged in six months,
Speaker 1: but like I want to take it slow. But again,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to shut the door to someone that
Speaker 1: potentially might be who I'm supposed to be with. I
Speaker 1: think exploring, you know, is totally Again, I've been so
Speaker 1: unhappy for so long, like even you know what I've
Speaker 1: I've just tried to like make it work, and it's
Speaker 1: like it's exhausting, and like I deserve to feel loved,
Speaker 1: Like I deserve to feel everything that I've given to
Speaker 1: like people in my life well and not I mean,
Speaker 1: like I said that you to this to you before
Speaker 1: it's like, and you know you are going to make
Speaker 1: somebody so amazingly happy, and like I can't wait to
Speaker 1: see that too. It's like, you know, we keep talking
Speaker 1: about like you, but you have this you know, beautiful
Speaker 1: gift to give to somebody else too, Yes, you do,
Speaker 1: thanks toam What I mean? I mean, I guess I'll
Speaker 1: tell my wine down people when I when that moment
Speaker 1: happens though, like y'all will be the first to know
Speaker 1: if I'm giving my heart to someone after us after
Speaker 1: you know. But you know, I'm just I'm not saying no, right,
Speaker 1: I'm not saying no to to the to the opportunities
Speaker 1: controlling it anyway. You don't need to control the situation.
Speaker 1: I think she was more just saying be patient instead
Speaker 1: of trying to push it, trying to force Like I'm
Speaker 1: not on like dating apps or anything. It's the you know,
Speaker 1: there's the conversations that you know that I've had. It's
Speaker 1: if it and don't feel right, then I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: have the conversations. I'm not a dator anyways. Like I
Speaker 1: don't like to just like date people. Know what Catherine
Speaker 1: what nothing? If she dates then it's like a boyfriend yeah.
Speaker 1: I always like, I wouldn't go on a date if
Speaker 1: I didn't think that it was gonna be major potential
Speaker 1: because well exactly, And it's like, what's the point. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to go on a second date if
Speaker 1: I don't see you being a great stepdad to my
Speaker 1: kids or a great husband to me. Like I don't
Speaker 1: need I don't dinner, but I don't need a dinner either.
Speaker 1: I don't need to free dinner like no, I'm like,
Speaker 1: i'd rather have chicken nuggets like I don't need like
Speaker 1: and like, now this is how I know I'm different
Speaker 1: because the Jana pre mic was like, yeah, I'll, I'll.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to be alone, so I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have a dude tonight. I don't want that anymore.
Speaker 1: I'd rather just be alone. But it's it's like, why
Speaker 1: go on the second date if I don't see potential?
Speaker 1: But I'm also not going to say no to the
Speaker 1: date because I want to see him. Just do what
Speaker 1: feels right, Yeah, no pressure, just do whatever. Like the
Speaker 1: first time that I would make out with someone, Oh
Speaker 1: my god, you guys, that's gonna be so weird. We
Speaker 1: know what it's been like seven years. Well, I mean
Speaker 1: I've done like movie kisses, but it's different. There's no
Speaker 1: emotion behind us. But I mean I'm kind of like
Speaker 1: riding a bike. Oh, I'm just like getting like sweaty
Speaker 1: thinking about it right now. I just like, I just
Speaker 1: what is going to be your first question that you
Speaker 1: asked my next guy, like my next relationship, because I'm
Speaker 1: obviously not gonna you know, I have fifty I mean
Speaker 1: the first one. Um, I'm like literally getting sweaty. What
Speaker 1: you're talking about this? My first one is are you nice?
Speaker 1: That That's a good one. I like that one. What
Speaker 1: about yours? Do you like kids? Come on, I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1: We really did that when you showed up. Do you
Speaker 1: have a job? And do you like kids? I think
Speaker 1: they would know we're going to date. I'm more about
Speaker 1: like not I'm not going to be that girl that's
Speaker 1: sitting there and just like you know, hitting them with
Speaker 1: questions like it's just gonna be like me talking to
Speaker 1: them in like my normal like way and like just
Speaker 1: getting that feeling like back from them, like is this
Speaker 1: is this natural? Is this organic? Because this like a
Speaker 1: genuine person, like I'll be able to feel by like
Speaker 1: them just like talking to me, you know, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I agree. Jana is the one with the million. She
Speaker 1: she will ask enough questions like we won't have to
Speaker 1: like we were just going to get the vibey. And
Speaker 1: here's the thing too, like you know, if there's someone
Speaker 1: that I'm speaking to, like there's going to be that
Speaker 1: question like, hey, I have two kids and they're my
Speaker 1: everything and number one, like you gotta know that, like
Speaker 1: you won't be the top, like my kids are my everything,
Speaker 1: and I come with I come with kids, like I
Speaker 1: come like are you even prepared for that? Because if
Speaker 1: you're not, don't waste my time. And it's again because
Speaker 1: I don't want to, like I'm not wasting time here.
Speaker 1: I'd rather be alone and not entertain. But I think
Speaker 1: any man that is interested in you obviously knows that
Speaker 1: you have two kids, um, and that you know how
Speaker 1: great of a mother you are and all of those things,
Speaker 1: so like they wouldn't even be entertaining the idea if
Speaker 1: they weren't okay with that. I don't know though, because
Speaker 1: there because there were some guys in my past where
Speaker 1: it's like what I actually said it he was like
Speaker 1: I just wanted to see if like that's the problem. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm talking like if you're really like you know, relationship,
Speaker 1: like I mean, they're going to be okay, because then
Speaker 1: how hard is that they pretend like to see if
Speaker 1: they can go out with you, and they pretend like
Speaker 1: they're fine with it, but then you really get into
Speaker 1: it and they're not. So it is something that needs
Speaker 1: to be It's hard because it's like you go ahead
Speaker 1: and talk about it from the beginning, like hey, are
Speaker 1: you good with up step kids, But at the same time,
Speaker 1: it's like you don't want to go through six months
Speaker 1: it then pretending like they like kids, and then wait,
Speaker 1: I don't want step kids. So I don't know. That's
Speaker 1: a hard but here's yeah, that's and but then also
Speaker 1: I think about what if they say to me, well,
Speaker 1: do you want more kids? And that's something where I'm
Speaker 1: like I never even imagine. So I'm going way ahead
Speaker 1: of myself, right, Okay, this is like this is this
Speaker 1: is like dream land here, like you know, to get
Speaker 1: to that place, but if and when that happens, like
Speaker 1: those are things I have to think about. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, do I like I've had terrible pregnancies.
Speaker 1: I never you know Mike and I, Yeah, we talked
Speaker 1: about maybe having a third, but it was going to
Speaker 1: be most likely surrogate because of my miscarriages and then
Speaker 1: my you know, hyporemesis on both ones. So it's like,
Speaker 1: I just never thought I would ever have to have
Speaker 1: that conversation with somebody else. And who knows, maybe maybe
Speaker 1: the next person that I meet has kids too, and
Speaker 1: you know, doesn't want kids. But these things that I
Speaker 1: think about. If you fall in love with somebody and
Speaker 1: they want kids, I think that you will be excited
Speaker 1: to have another kid with somebody that you already is
Speaker 1: the new twenty Hello South Beach. By the way, I'm
Speaker 1: five years older than her, so when she says she's old, like,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, but we knows our things. Just I
Speaker 1: would just keep everything open. You don't go right now
Speaker 1: until you're in that relationship, And to answer that question
Speaker 1: now doesn't even make sense right and right now, I'm
Speaker 1: just I'm not putting myself out there. But I'm also
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna you know, I'm not going to be
Speaker 1: like no, I can't because it hasn't been this amount
Speaker 1: of time. I'm just gonna slow step it. Agree, Thank you,
Speaker 1: so if you want to send in your resume to
Speaker 1: wind up, we'll have East and mark through because it's
