Speaker 2: Good morning, Daniel, Welcome to the program Guarding Daniel. All right,

4
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 2: let's hear about it. What's going on in your relationship?

5
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,799
Speaker 2: Little group therapy going on right now, the Fread Show.

6
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 2: We're here for you. Well, unlikely.

7
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 3: I'm just I just I'm not quite sure what to

8
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 3: do because I'm kind of at the end of my rope.

9
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:26,280
Speaker 4: With this thing.

10
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, wait, wait, fill us in, please give

11
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: us the backstory.

12
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, a few years ago, my wife was diagnosed

13
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 5: with a pretty serious heart issue and she underwent a

14
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 5: huge surgery and you know, by the grace of God,

15
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 5: you know, everything was okay. You know, the surgery went

16
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 5: well and things were looking up right, Okay, right, yeah, yeah.

17
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, So it's just dumb ter send the story. Is

18
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: that what happened?

19
00:00:58,800 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 6: Well?

20
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 3: No, no, so well, the doctors recommended that she makes

21
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 3: some some lifestyle changes, you know, changing you know, what

22
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 3: she eats, exercising, moving around more, and this is kind

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 3: of where the issue is. So and despite doctor's orders,

24
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 3: she has not been active and has not been eating

25
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,839
Speaker 3: well at all. And it's been kind of a point

26
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 3: of contention between us, and about a week or so ago,

27
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 3: the last straw was we got into a little bit

28
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 3: of an argument about it, and she promised that she

29
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: would do better. And then the very next day after

30
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 3: our argument, I found a fast food wrapper in her car.

31
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 3: So I'm really just trying to tread lightly with the

32
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: whole situation because I don't want to come off as

33
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 3: you know, controlling and you know, or shaming her or

34
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 3: anything like that. But I it really, it really hurts

35
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 3: me to see her body, to see her treating her

36
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 3: body like this, and especially when you know, when we

37
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: went through the surgery and she was given, you know,

38
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 3: a whole new lease on life, and I just, you know,

39
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 3: and I want her to be around, you know, for

40
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 3: for our kids and potentially future grandkids. And I just

41
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 3: like I don't know what to do because, like I said,

42
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 3: I don't want to be controlling, but at the same time,

43
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 3: what do I do in this situation.

44
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: Well, she kind of imagines as you do.

45
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: She owes it to you, and she owes it to

46
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 2: your family, especially if you cared for her when she

47
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: wasn't well and helped her heal. I mean, I think

48
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 2: she owes that effort to you guys, right, I mean

49
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 2: it's part of being a family, it's part of having kids,

50
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 2: it's part of being a spouse. Right, is that you

51
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: you try, But it sounds like the problem here is

52
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 2: deeper than just that. Like it sounds like maybe it's

53
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: some form of addiction, or it's psychological or something that

54
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 2: is beyond you know, something that maybe you can handle

55
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: it yourself. I mean, if you considered seeing maybe she

56
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: would see a counselor or you guys go together and

57
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 2: talk about it, because you know, maybe this is beyond

58
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 2: just a normal conversation.

59
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would be totally open for that. I just

60
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 3: think getting her to do it would be would be

61
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 3: really difficult, like that first, Like there, it would almost

62
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 3: need like an intervention or something like that.

63
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, put her on that show. No, don't do that.

64
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: Well maybe I don't know, yes, Rufio.

65
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 7: I mean I feel this guy on this one because.

66
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 8: I have had health issues this past couple of years

67
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 8: and it honestly, you know, and Jess was really concerned

68
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 8: for me, and I feel like you need to threaten

69
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 8: her a little bit, and like threaten her like that

70
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 8: you're done, like you're gonna leave, Like it's gonna be

71
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 8: over if you don't change your lifestyle because it's serious

72
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 8: and that and that's what happened to me. Like, you know,

73
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 8: my mom died at sixty seven years old, and like

74
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 8: the heart problems running my family, so I had She's like,

75
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 8: you need to take this seriously because you need to

76
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 8: be around for like we have kids, we want you know,

77
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 8: more grandkids and stuff like that. So you have to

78
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 8: you have to kind of like threaten them in a

79
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 8: positive way.

80
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 9: You know.

81
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 7: It's like and if she won't.

82
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 8: Do that after you say, hey, if you don't do this,

83
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 8: I'm done, then then it's time to go.

84
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 7: Like she you have to you have to force the issue.

85
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 8: And and and get her to change her ways because

86
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 8: you want to round for the long haul.

87
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 9: Yeah.

88
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 5: I just I know though if I if I.

89
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 3: Leave her alone up to her own devices though, but

90
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 3: that's that's just not going to be a good situation

91
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 3: for her.

92
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think you have You've sounds like

93
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 2: maybe you've tried being supportive. You tried to, you know,

94
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 2: help her get through this process of this really serious surgery,

95
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: and you could have lost her and your kids could

96
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: have lost her. And I think now it's time that

97
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 2: she puts in some effort. But again, it's not as

98
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 2: simple as I don't think just going to some people

99
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,480
Speaker 2: and being like, hey, I need you to stop eating

100
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 2: like this, I need you to be more healthy, I

101
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: need you to do and to exercise and whatever. I

102
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: don't think it's necessarily that simple. Well, it might be

103
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 2: really frustrating the same way, and again I'm not a professional,

104
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 2: but the same way that you might look at someone

105
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,239
Speaker 2: who's addicted to alcohol or something else and say, just stop,

106
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 2: just stop with it. It really isn't that easy, which

107
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 2: is why you may need a little bit more help

108
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 2: then you can provide. And yeah, I mean, I think

109
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 2: maybe some tough love is in order, but I don't know.

110
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: Surely some people out there have encountered this. So I'm

111
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 2: going to take some phone calls eight five five three five.

112
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about you behind your back, but look,

113
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 2: well actually it's not really behind your back, as you

114
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 2: can still listen. But nonetheless, we wish you the very

115
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 2: best and thank you for sharing this. I hope it

116
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 2: works out.

117
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 3: Good luck man, Yeah, thank you, I appreciate it, all.

118
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: Right, Thank you.

119
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 2: Marissa hold On of SEG Marissa, Yes, what do you

120
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 2: want to say, go ahead?

121
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 9: Well, I'm in her corner for the reason. I think

122
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 9: he should leave, because what a jerk this woman overcame

123
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 9: debt honey? Who cares that she wants a big.

124
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 6: Mak Let her live?

125
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 4: Life is short.

126
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 9: I understand if he wants her to be healthy for

127
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 9: their family, but she deserves so much better than that,

128
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 9: a man that will support or overcome those challengs, not

129
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 9: complain about it anymore.

130
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 8: I mean, Marissa a whole on a second, she got

131
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 8: a second chance at life and she's ruining.

132
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 2: That right, Like, don't you think so? He he should

133
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 2: just let her Like, she has a family, she has

134
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: a husband, she has kids, she has obligations, and so

135
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 2: he should just let her go, just lutter, not encourage

136
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 2: her to be more healthy, not push her, not challenge her.

137
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 2: He should just essentially let her kill herself, because then

138
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 2: what does that say about him?

139
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 9: Well, he should support her, I think, but maybe in

140
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 9: different ways. I mean, I understand if someone to call

141
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 9: the radio, but go to a couple of counseling together,

142
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 9: maybe meal prep together, but you call him to complain

143
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 9: about her. I mean, she deserves better than that.

144
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 10: Show her better?

145
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,840
Speaker 2: Is he complaining or is he at wits end? I mean,

146
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 2: I'm challenging you here a little bit, Marissa, because I

147
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: feel like he doesn't know what to do, which a

148
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 2: lot of people wouldn't know what to do because they don't. Clearly,

149
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 2: he doesn't want to hurt her, and he doesn't want

150
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: to make her alienate her and make her feel like

151
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 2: she's not valued the way she is. But she has

152
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: to make changes because it's really not about in some ways,

153
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 2: if you have kids, forget about your spouse, it's not

154
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 2: about you anymore, right, right?

155
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 9: And that's it's true. I have a family member who's

156
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 9: actually in a very similar boat.

157
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 11: But we kind of had almost the.

158
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 9: Intervention where we got together and gave him the support

159
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 9: he needed. And I think that's what needs to happen

160
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 9: move forward. And if he doesn't want to more support

161
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 9: than that, than think your decisions have to be made.

162
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: Marissa, with all due respect, how is that any different

163
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 2: than what we just said, Like, he's not a Jersey.

164
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 7: Yeah alone, let him live his life.

165
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 12: You just said that, yeah, okay, and then everyone has.

166
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 2: That she is entitled to her opinion. I just think,

167
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 2: you know, I think we're all saying the same thing here.

168
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 2: But Marissa, thank you, have a good day you too. Yeah,

169
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 2: I don't know. She came in hot with the whole

170
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: He's a jerk thing. Honestly, I think he's a jerk

171
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: if he does nothing. I think he's a jerk if

172
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 2: he if he doesn't express any concern whatsoever. Right, And

173
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: I think he's a jerk if he doesn't offer solutions

174
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 2: for her.

175
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah.

176
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 13: Yeah, I don't think calling a radio station is anyone's

177
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 13: like first thing that they do.

178
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 7: Like it sounds like he's tried everything.

179
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 13: I mean, we want you to call please, but that

180
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 13: should be your first option. He's exhausted everything, and he's

181
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 13: kind of needing that, you know, that advice.

182
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 2: Well, And I mean there's a large cross section of

183
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 2: folks that listen of the thirteen. You know, people from

184
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 2: our our audience of thirteen are massive audience of thirteen.

185
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: You know they have someone's been.

186
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 7: Through this before, you know, is fair name you call.

187
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 2: Up here and have a concern, Maybe someone listening goes, no,

188
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 2: wait a minute, I went through this, and I have

189
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: an idea. Hey Jennifer, good morning, Yes, Hi, Hi, what

190
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:28,119
Speaker 2: do you want to say?

191
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 7: Hi?

192
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 2: Oh?

193
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 11: I just wanted to say that.

194
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 12: I think that maybe the conversation that they should have

195
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 12: should be that he's going to ask, how can I

196
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 12: support you?

197
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 3: Like, what can we do?

198
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 11: Do we meal prep? Do we do something to try

199
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 11: and make this work better for the both of us? So,

200
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 11: I think a lot of.

201
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 12: Times women as mothers feel overwhelmed and so it's easy

202
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,959
Speaker 12: to make a choice to get a quick meal. And

203
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 12: if she's feeling attacked because of that, it's it's a

204
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 12: harder conversation versus if if she's feeling supported, what are

205
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 12: we going to do to try and make better decisions? Yeah,

206
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 12: so's like, how can we meal prep? How can we

207
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 12: work together to make this a better situation for everybody?

208
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: Yeah? Man, Jennifer, thank you, have a good day.

209
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 14: You're welcome.

210
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: And Scott has a good point here. Hey Scott, good morning,

211
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: Good morning Scott. So the question you have is, you know,

212
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 2: is he leading by example? Is he is he in it?

213
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: Wather?

214
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean there's a couple of questions. So is

215
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 15: he is he eating the right stuff around her and

216
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 15: with her? Is he supporting her in that sense? Because

217
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,319
Speaker 15: if he's not, she's not going to either. So I

218
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 15: mean he has a lot to do with that however,

219
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 15: I mean, it really comes down to you know, not

220
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 15: just that, but it's also you know, first of all,

221
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 15: it sounds like she needs some therapy in that sense.

222
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 15: And yeah, I mean I feel like he sounds like

223
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 15: it's his responsibility as well, which we can only do

224
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 15: so much for our significant others. I mean, it really

225
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 15: it comes down to her and if he does that,

226
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 15: believe her, he should not feel as bad as it

227
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 15: sounds like he does about it.

228
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if he does everything he can, and

229
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 2: it doesn't sound like he's done everything he can yet,

230
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 2: but it sounds like he wants to and he's looking

231
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 2: for the ideas. So Scott, thank you man. Have a

232
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 2: good day. Uh, Natalia, good morning, Natalia, how.

233
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 4: Are you good?

234
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: Hey, so you've been in this situation.

235
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, so I've actually been the one that was pretty

236
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 10: overweight and kind of lost like that turn in my life.

237
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 10: And my husband for years was like thebe we need

238
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 10: to get it together, like and he tried.

239
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 3: He tried all the.

240
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 10: Right things, saying all the right things, let's go to

241
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 10: the gym together. He was really big in the kickboxing.

242
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 4: And it took me, it was on me.

243
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 10: To say, you know what, it's time to turn my life.

244
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 10: He could say all the right things, it comes down

245
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 10: to what when I was ready. There was a point

246
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 10: in my life where I was like I'm done, Like

247
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 10: I have a family, I need to get healthy, and

248
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 10: the encouragement and the support is what is the best thing.

249
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 10: So it's hard on him because now looking back, I

250
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 10: understand how hard it was to my husband. But he

251
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 10: just has to keep biting and keep pushing and just

252
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 10: keeping positive.

253
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 14: And there's gonna be one day.

254
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 10: Where she's like I'm done, like I have to change

255
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 10: my life. Yeah, and it'll happen, but he just has

256
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 10: to be supportive and just keep pushing through.

257
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 15: It's so hard.

258
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 10: Like now, looking back, I feel so bad for my husband.

259
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 14: He tried and tried and tried, but at.

260
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 10: The end of the day, like it really doesn't matter

261
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 10: until she gets that mentality of like, okay, it's.

262
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 14: Time to change.

263
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: Yeah it.

264
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 14: Me.

265
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 10: My son was five and he got to the point

266
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 10: where he was able to vocalize like Mommy, your tummy's big,

267
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 10: or like it was those things that finally made me realize,

268
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 10: like this is not healthy, Like this is not the

269
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 10: life I want. If my son notices it, other people

270
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,599
Speaker 10: in the world are going to notice and that that

271
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 10: did it makes me feel good.

272
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Natalia, thank you for calling, thanks for sharing.

273
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 2: I appreciate you.

274
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 3: Yep, thank you.

275
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 2: The other thing is, in a situation like this, you

276
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 2: got to I mean, I understand she's going with the problem,

277
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 2: but he has to feel like, what am I not

278
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: worth it? I'm not worth you trying. Our kids aren't

279
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 2: worth you trying. Our family's not worth you trying.

280
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 15: What.

281
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 16: No, it's okay to feel like that, but it's really

282
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 16: not about him. It's all about her, and he just

283
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 16: has to, like you said, be supportive in that. But

284
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 16: I wouldn't internalize like what am I not worth it?

285
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,319
Speaker 16: Because it's not that easy. It's really not that easy

286
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 16: for her or anybody dealing with addiction. Like I grew

287
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 16: up in a house full of addiction, and I would

288
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 16: be like, you don't love us enough to stop doing

289
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 16: what you're doing. But it's not about me. It's not

290
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 16: about you as the person. It's about the person with

291
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 16: the addiction. That's their own personal battle and all you

292
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 16: can really do is support them through their journey and

293
00:12:59,320 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 16: hope that they change.

294
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: I think you're right.

295
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: I just I don't think it's unnatural or unreasonable to

296
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 2: have those feelings and to start to develop a resentment.

297
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure, you know, and I know that

298
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: you have.

299
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 2: To sort of check that because of the points that

300
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 2: you've made, because it's bigger than that. But that being said,

301
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 2: that's why maybe a professional is necessary here because it's

302
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 2: just going to get worse and he's probably going to

303
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 2: become more resentful and she's probably going to become more resistant.

304
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 13: Yeah, and this situation is more severe because there was

305
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 13: a life saving surgery.

306
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 7: I mean, it's not just necessarily like these.

307
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: Are doctors orders.

308
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 13: If you had something else going on and a doctor

309
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 13: said here's your prescription medication and your spouse wasn't taking it,

310
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 13: you know, this I think elevates the situation that she

311
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 13: almost lost her life.

312
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:42,839
Speaker 2: And I can relate to this story, by the way,

313
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: because I've had someone in my life. You have a

314
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 2: really really really close call and you think, okay, and

315
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 2: this person was scared, you know, and you say, Okay,

316
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 2: this is going to open their eyes. They're going to

317
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 2: change everything, Yeah, because they don't want to do this again.

318
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,719
Speaker 2: And then when they don't, then it a lot I

319
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 2: understand it's bigger than me, and it's bigger than you know,

320
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 2: family or friends. But at the same time, you're like,

321
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 2: what is it going to take then.

322
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 8: Especially if something happens and he has to live with that,

323
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,400
Speaker 8: Like he's got to be like I could have done more.

324
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 7: You know what I'm saying, Like, even though you did everything,

325
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 7: you gotta try.

326
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 1: Yeahah, you gotta try to live.

327
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,959
Speaker 7: With that that doubt, like I could have done more,

328
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 7: I should have done more.

329
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: But he's done a lot. He's doing what he can.

330
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 16: And sometimes people just have to hear rock bottom before

331
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 16: they wake up.

332
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. Hey Albert, you say go good morning, Albert.

333
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I say go good morning, listening to you guys

334
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 4: on my way home from work, so thank you, But

335
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 4: I say, definitely go. I was kind of in that situation,

336
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 4: but I was alone with the issue, and my ex

337
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 4: wife at that time gave me that proposition. I need

338
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 4: to get the help that I need to or she's

339
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 4: set up with it. It's not good for the kids

340
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 4: to be around me and see me basically destroying myself.

341
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 4: And as parents, our kids always come first. They should.

342
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 4: As soon as you become a parent, your kid is

343
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 4: your number one priority, and you should do everything in

344
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 4: your power to be there for your kids as long

345
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 4: as possible. So there might be another underlying issue with

346
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 4: this woman where she does need some kind of counseling,

347
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 4: but unfortunately, until she hits rock bottom herself, she's just

348
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 4: going to bring him and the family down and it's

349
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 4: going to be an ugly situation, and he should think

350
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 4: about his kids and not put him in that position

351
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 4: and just do what's best for him and the kids

352
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 4: and let her hit rock bottom and get the help

353
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 4: she needs.

354
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 2: At that point, I hear you, Albert, but I also

355
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 2: I don't think he's done everything yet.

356
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: I think there's more to do.

357
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 2: I think that's part of the reason he called here

358
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 2: because he didn't know what to do next. And a

359
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 2: lot of people are calling in who have been part

360
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 2: of this. So I don't know that it's I don't

361
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 2: know that he's done everything he can do yet to

362
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 2: just walk away and be like, forget about it, because

363
00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 2: I don't know that that. I don't know that him

364
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 2: walking the way he changes anything. I think there's another

365
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 2: level of intervention that needs to take place here. It's

366
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 2: more serious than that.

367
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 4: I agree with you at that point, A little bit,

368
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 4: but his focus should be the kids. Yeah, that's you

369
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 4: really want his kids to see all of that going on.

370
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 8: But even if you have kids, yes, you're they're your

371
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 8: number one priority. If you love someone, if you if

372
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,480
Speaker 8: you love that person so much, you're never going to

373
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 8: give up on that person, like you you married into

374
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 8: that vow and.

375
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 7: You would die for that person.

376
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 8: And I just feel like you're just giving up if

377
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 8: you just say, all right, I'm just gonna think about

378
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 8: the kids and forget about you.

379
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: That's just Yeah, that's a tough situation to be in.

380
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if we're there yet, but I don't know.

381
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 2: Thank you, Albert, Albert's been there, so I appreciate you, Albert,

382
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 2: thank you for calling.

383
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: Uh Hey Stacy, Hi Stacy.

384
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 4: Good morning, Good morning.

385
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: How are you hey? Doing well?

386
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 2: If you just tuned in stare go this this guy

387
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 2: calls because he's concerned his wife had a very serious

388
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 2: heart surgery and he was hoping that would change her

389
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 2: life and her lifestyle, that she you know, she got

390
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 2: kind of a sex at least on life, and it

391
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 2: hasn't and she really hasn't changed things, and he's concerned

392
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 2: about it. She's hiding food and hiding, you know, things

393
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 2: she shouldn't be eating, and they have kids and a family,

394
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 2: and he's worried about it, doesn't know what to do.

395
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: What do you think.

396
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 11: I think he has argue, made this decision and he

397
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 11: wants to go, and I think that's why he called

398
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 11: the radio. I had a Willmaker heart attack at thirty

399
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 11: eight years old to stunt placements. I had no cholesterol.

400
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 14: Problems, I was active and eating really healthy. They think

401
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 14: it was related to stress. But regardless of me, I

402
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 14: was in a situation for twenty marriage, twenty years a guy.

403
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 11: Who was really controlling. In college, he didn't want to

404
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 11: eat lunch with me because I had.

405
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 14: A turkey sandwich of salad and a brownie.

406
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 11: And he couldn't handle watching me eat that.

407
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 14: And so once I had a heart attack, he told

408
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 14: everybody was because of diet an exercise, but his family

409
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 14: thought he was dying an exercise and it had nothing

410
00:17:58,960 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 14: to do with that.

411
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 11: So she, you know, my kids still thought it.

412
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 14: Was giant exercise. But there's eating concerned issues and control

413
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 14: issues in that family. So I don't know.

414
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 11: I think he's much more complicated than that, I think,

415
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 11: but I do.

416
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 14: Think like that other lady. If he's already called the

417
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 14: radio station, it's not that he does not want to

418
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 14: help her.

419
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 11: He's made that division, you know.

420
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 14: I think so. I think he's just so many more details.

421
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 14: I think he should go because I agree with this

422
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 14: other lady.

423
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: All Right, Dacy, thank you, And I know it's not popular.

424
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: That's you take appreciates you have a good day.

425
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, Heather, Hi, Hi guys, Hey Heather, good morning.

Speaker 6: Say stay, but I also wanted to say that make

429
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,719
Speaker 6: it a team effort, that you're you're in this, you're

430
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 6: a family, You're a husband and wife's team. Work out together,

431
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 6: make the giant changes together, and don't don't go in

432
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 6: wake up Monday morning and say I'm going to spend

433
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 6: three hours in the gym every day this week.

434
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 11: How about date week.

435
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 6: One day one, let's take a ten minute walk, next day,

436
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 6: ten minute walk, and just improve and grow from there.

437
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:06,400
Speaker 14: But don't leave.

438
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 6: She needs your support. That's what families are for. Just

439
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 6: make small changes and make it a team effort.

440
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: Right, It doesn't all have to happen in one day. Yeah,

441
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 1: just gradual.

442
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 2: And I suppose you know, I have noticed, even with

443
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 2: my own health, that it's sort of a slippery slope,

444
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 2: like you add this step and then you see results,

445
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 2: and you add the next step, and then the next step,

446
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 2: and before long you're kind of on on track. And

447
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 2: it doesn't feel completely and totally overwhelming, and it is

448
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 2: something you can do together.

449
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: So I like that. I like the outlook, Heather.

450
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,640
