Speaker 1: One Republic, I ain't worried. Ryan's roses just a few
Speaker 1: minutes away. We're about to make this call. A large
Speaker 1: charge was showing up on the credit card bill, and
Speaker 1: she thinks he's cheating and spending this money on another woman.
Speaker 1: He bought her a mattress. She thinks random. He bought
Speaker 1: her a mattress to unjunk their sleep. But it seems
Speaker 1: like a strange purchase if you're trying to cover something up.
Speaker 1: So anyway, that's minutes away Ryan's roses. Tanya, with the
Speaker 1: trending report, you said, have we ever made a big
Speaker 1: decision in life to please your family? Go ahead, yes,
Speaker 1: And I really wanted to think about that because I
Speaker 1: think so many people can relate to that sentiment. But
Speaker 1: ever since Prince Harry announced his upcoming memoir, a lot
Speaker 1: of people have speculated what it's going to be about.
Speaker 1: You know, he's gonna talk a lot about his strained
Speaker 1: relationship with Prince William King Charles. But according to the Telegraph,
Speaker 1: a source claims that he wrote the book for himself
Speaker 1: and that Harry couldn't keep trying to make his family happy.
Speaker 1: It's not a takedown of his family, but rather a
Speaker 1: beautiful read and a tale of family idiosyncrasies and struggles
Speaker 1: with which readers from all walks of life will identify.
Speaker 1: And it really got me thinking about like family dynamic,
Speaker 1: and especially now, I feel like since I'm in my thirties,
Speaker 1: a lot of my friends are kind of discovering some
Speaker 1: of these big life decisions that they made because their
Speaker 1: parents wanted them to do it versus that they themselves
Speaker 1: wanting to do it. And I feel like that's a
Speaker 1: hard pill to swallow as you get older, because you're
Speaker 1: like living this life and wondering did I really make
Speaker 1: that decision because it's what I wanted, or it's because
Speaker 1: something that my parents or my family just wanted me
Speaker 1: to do. And so I just think that this book
Speaker 1: is going to be something. Obviously, nobody can really relate
Speaker 1: to Prince Harry because his life is so right, it's royalty,
Speaker 1: and it's so different. But I think when you really
Speaker 1: break it down to its root, I think everybody can
Speaker 1: relate in some way because I think we've all made
Speaker 1: a decision based on I have done the absolute opposite
Speaker 1: everything that my parents wanted me to do or thought.
Speaker 1: I mean, they never said you have to do, but
Speaker 1: thought I would do based on their guidance. I didn't.
Speaker 1: I dropped out of college, I moved from Georgia to California.
Speaker 1: I'm unmarried and I don't have kids. That's not what
Speaker 1: they saw. So I've done all the other things. But
Speaker 1: when you while you're doing those things, where there ever
Speaker 1: these moments where you felt bad like you were going
Speaker 1: against what your parents wishes were not really interesting? Not
Speaker 1: really because I was hyper focused on I knew what
Speaker 1: I wanted to do with my life, hyper focused on
Speaker 1: that interesting, and I had to get that in and
Speaker 1: out of my system. How about you, Sisson, I always
Speaker 1: I almost didn't have a choice when I was in college.
Speaker 1: I remember there was a moment when I was doing radio.
Speaker 1: I started at nineteen, and I really wanted to try
Speaker 1: to focus on radio per se and like try to
Speaker 1: get a full time job, and I wanted to quit college.
Speaker 1: And I had a conversation with my dad and he said,
Speaker 1: if you want to do that, you have to be
Speaker 1: able to support yourself, support on yourself. And I couldn't
Speaker 1: do it because I wasn't making enough money at the time.
Speaker 1: And that was a moment where I said, Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: going to just finished college because my parents are still
Speaker 1: helping me. And that that was a moment where I
Speaker 1: remember I was like, I did that essentially for my parents,
Speaker 1: Like I got my college degree because it was something
Speaker 1: that they wanted me to get and do, and I'm
Speaker 1: glad I have it. And then it's it's not poo
Speaker 1: poo degrees, but how has it served you? I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, time management degrees are impressive and important. I
Speaker 1: don't want to poo them. But I didn't get a
Speaker 1: college degree either, And my dad said the same thing
Speaker 1: to me. It's like, if you're going to move to California,
Speaker 1: you have to support yourself. So I did have to
Speaker 1: get a job. So I got a job. So I said,
Speaker 1: I'm going and I got a job. And my job
Speaker 1: was hosting American glad Eaters for kids. That's great though,
Speaker 1: that's a fun job. It was a great job. But
Speaker 1: I ended up being able to support myself that first year.
Speaker 1: And but it's the same exact. I mean, your dad's
Speaker 1: a good dad, because that's the right thing to say,
Speaker 1: all right, coming up, Tickets to our jingle Ball presented
