I became a mom 8 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: much later in life, and my biggest thing because I 9 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: was such a workaholic and I still am, but in 10 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 1: a different way. And my challenge even before I had 11 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 1: kids was how to have. 12 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 2: Me time right. 13 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: And then when I had my kids, I was like, Wow, 14 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: what would have happened if I did this like in 15 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: my twenties, you know, what would that have been like 16 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: trying to sort of do that that juggle. And so 17 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: talking to you, I'm thinking, well, you've now been a 18 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: mom for so long, you know, and it's I think 19 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: my question is sort of like, you know, finding that 20 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: time and do you find now that you've had your 21 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: third child, have you found that this struggle is. 22 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: It's almost a little easier for you to figure out 23 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: how to go back. 24 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: To being Carolina, like alone, Carolina, when you need to be, 25 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: when mommy, Carolina, when you need to be, Because that's 26 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: always been my challenge. Honestly, I tried to bring the 27 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: kids everywhere and like never leave them and work at 28 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: the same time. And I felt like that wasn't productive 29 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: because I was like just like this all the time. 30 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: So but I did find that by my second son, 31 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: it was a bit easier for me to get my 32 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: head out of like out of the clouds a little 33 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: bit to be like, Okay, I can do this, you know. 34 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: So my question is because I have funny enough, I 35 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: have a few friends with five kids, many friends with four, 36 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: and I have one friend who just had her. 37 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 3: Six and I know, I know, and so beautiful. I 38 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 3: don't care how much if you have help and they. 39 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 2: Sell, I know, I'm with you. It's insane. It's insane. 40 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: And to be honest, I'm here to say I'm a 41 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: strong believer in that it's actually easier on some level 42 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: when they're very young, because, as you know now with 43 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: a six and twelve year old, the older they get, 44 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: they have more things, the needs are different. It's not 45 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: like holding their hands so they don't fall and get stitches. 46 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: It's like, Okay, they have homework, they have played it, 47 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: they have sports, say this, it's their schedule, their emotions this. 48 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 3: As you sady, and I mean when you're older, it's 49 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 3: actually it's harder because it's a lot. It's emotional. I 50 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 3: mean you almost need to be have a degree in 51 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 3: a little bit in psychology to kind of help them 52 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: get it's true, navigate certain things, you know, between them 53 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 3: and you know, somebody said this and they're feeling god 54 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 3: hurt or it's miscommunication, misunderstanding like you know, and they're 55 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 3: going through their own things where their body is changing. 56 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: So it's definitely, you know, it's hard and I don't 57 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: know how to navigate through that either. And you know, Havy, 58 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 3: I mean, Tobin was my all this.

You can over push it and 130 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 3: be like, you know, I want to do it now, 131 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 3: and why am I not doing this thing? You know? 132 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 3: Like of course I can be like, oh am I 133 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 3: not doing this thing? I should be doing this and 134 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 3: I should be uncovered of this, and you know, but 135 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 3: it's okay, I've done it, Like you know, what am 136 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 3: I chasing just to like show and prove, Oh I'm 137 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 3: on discover again and doing this. You know, I've done 138 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 3: it for over twenty years. Like I've done a lot 139 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 3: of things, But what is really what do I really want? 140 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: You know? 141 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 2: What makes me. 142 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 3: If I'm going to leave my family? Like? Why for what? 143 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 3: You know? Is it because I'm challenging myself because you 144 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 3: know what I need to learn I'm too comfortable, I'm 145 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 3: too board? Is because you know it's it's the right 146 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 3: thing to do. I need to do that because there 147 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 3: is a reason. 148 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: Yeh. 149 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 3: So I'm kind of tart to be more patient, I guess. 150 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: And some of it is ego without knowing it. Some 151 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: of it were just driven by ego or driven by 152 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: wanting to do better, wanting to do more. I think 153 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: as women were born over achievers, you know, And I 154 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: think we always want to be the best, and we're 155 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: always trying to prove to ourselves that we can do 156 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: better and more. But I have realized when I look 157 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: back at my life and you look at kind of 158 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: what you've done and what you've accomplished and things like that, 159 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: people are like, do you know that da da da, 160 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: that you did this and this. I'm like, yeah, I 161 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: kind of remember that moment, you know, And It's like, 162 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: I think there is really something that we can teach 163 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: ourselves and teach our children about living in the moment 164 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: and looking at what's happening now and not trying to 165 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: get to what's next, because I do find that overplanning 166 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: is like it's. 167 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: How you trip over yourself. 168 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: If you overplan your life, you set yourself up in 169 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: my opinion, you know, And I think for our kids, 170 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: you know, we want to lift them up, not unrealistically, 171 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: but we want to constantly be advocates for them. And 172 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: I think teach them from what we kind of learn 173 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: about ourselves. Right, That's what I'm trying to do. And 174 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: like certain fears I have about things I don't want 175 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: them to have. So I think for me, I mean, 176 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the same for you, but 177 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: it's this constant sort of challenge and wanting to set 178 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 1: this example for your kids.

I come from the Czech Republic, I 295 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 3: come from Europe, and my grandparents at a country house 296 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 3: where I went every weekend as a kid. They grew 297 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 3: their own fruits and vegetables. They had chickens, they had rabbits. 298 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 3: You know, they had everything on the land and that 299 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 3: the land offered. We would eat, we would harvest, we 300 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: had to pick up. We would make homemade jams, we 301 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 3: would make homemade pickles. I remember as a kid in 302 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 3: my grandmother on the kitchen floor. We would make everything 303 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 3: from scratch.

So I 308 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 3: really grew up with that like lifestyle and obviously coming 309 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 3: into modeling and traveling the world and working with people 310 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 3: in different cultures and you know, kind of learning from them, 311 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 3: like what did they do when they had like headache 312 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 3: or when they were tired.

I had all my 352 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 3: three children at home. 353 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I use it. 354 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 3: Well. I mean the first studia at first was really 355 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 3: for kids. Yeah, you know, when I had Tobin and 356 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 3: then my two partners who also Rachel and Ryan, who 357 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 3: have two kids. I mean, no, they have well, Rachel 358 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 3: has three kids, Ryan has three kids himself. And when 359 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 3: we met h Ryan is an herbalist who's been practicing 360 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 3: making herbs for twenty five years. His father's Chinese medicine 361 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 3: doctor who's been doing for thirty years. So he grew 362 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 3: up in this world, you know, I mean even more 363 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 3: so than myself and Rachel, who has identical twins that 364 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 3: were born in twenty six weeks, super super premies. 365 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: Wow. 366 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 3: And they were this big Rachel, you imagine like this big, like. 367 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: Pompos scary my hand, like my head. 368 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,239 Speaker 3: But they survived, they made it. But you know, they 369 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 3: were so pree me. They had a lot of issues. 370 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 3: They had a lot of digestion issues, they had a 371 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 3: lot of sleeping issues. And for years she worked with 372 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 3: her pedutrition, She tried every you know, medicine and things 373 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 3: over the year. It just was not really helping. And 374 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 3: then she realized, you know, there is such a sensitive 375 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 3: little babies. I mean, these are drugs that can be 376 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 3: they can be on it for years. I mean, this 377 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 3: is not really the solution of despiration. She met Orian 378 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 3: and his dad Dan, and they made a little Herbal 379 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 3: Alex surf for the girls, and in a week they 380 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 3: were able to sleep through the night, they were able 381 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 3: to go to the bathroom. So that's when she really 382 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 3: had this aha, moment like wow, this is incredible, you know, 383 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 3: and she is not a believer. She's never really more 384 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 3: holistic round like that's no, that was not her upbringing, 385 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 3: that's not her style was not all that time. But 386 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 3: really because of this experience, and so I was going 387 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 3: to Oriyan and his dad for myself with my own kids. 388 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 3: You know, my Noah has a little bit of asthma 389 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 3: and he used to have a lot of ex amount 390 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,199 Speaker 3: he would give titis. So I would go and you know, 391 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 3: get acupuncture from him and herbs.
