1
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: Hey, let me ask you a question. Are you someone

2
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:12,120
Speaker 1: who believes music can change the world. If so, then

3
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: my guest today I love someone. Delilah is definitely someone

4
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 1: you already know but might want to get to know

5
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: a little bit more. Katie Perry is a major superstar,

6
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,799
Speaker 1: of course, and has so many hit songs that I

7
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: lost count. But you know what, She's so much more

8
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: than that. She's a real person. She is extremely down

9
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 1: to earth. She's carrying and kind. A couple of years back,

10
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 1: we connected for the first time, and I was surprised

11
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: to know that growing up she listened to my show

12
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: every night. She shared with me that my message and

13
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: my music had actually had an impact with her. She

14
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: had big dreams and a whole lot of faith, and

15
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: you know what, she still does. You just never know

16
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: how your life, or your words, or your love might

17
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 1: impact another. I can think of no better guests at

18
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: this moment in time than a megastar who admits that

19
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,479
Speaker 1: her toes need painting. Her soul is shaken and her

20
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: heart is full for all who suffered deeply through this pandemic.

21
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: Her belly is also full, but not with food, but

22
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: rather with a beautiful baby. She is so excited for.

23
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about love the importance of connecting

24
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: and just how much music is the true universal healing language.

25
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 1: Welcome to love someone. My friend Katie Perry, Hello, beautiful,

26
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm so excited for you? Can you

27
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: see it? Still? See your toes? Um? I can see

28
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: my toes, but I'm I would say that I can't

29
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: see other things. Your knees, your knees. You can't see

30
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: your knees. I'm so blessed and so thrilled to get

31
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: to talk to Katie Perry. And Katie, I gotta know, like,

32
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: can you see the tonail polish? Can you see your pedicure? Pedicure, pedicure? Yeah?

33
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: But you know what I was thinking speaking of pedicures,

34
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: I was thinking about tweeting the other day. I was like, Okay,

35
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 1: you guys, show me the state of your feet, and

36
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: I'll show you the state of my feet right now.

37
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: Or is that too much information? Oh? No, no, no no.

38
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: When you're pregnant, you get to do anything, any dang

39
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: thing you want. It's it's a permission card. Exactly a

40
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: lot of us have I think all of us haven't

41
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: had access to our regulars. You know, little little moments

42
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,920
Speaker 1: of manicures and pedicures and they you know, they they're

43
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: definitely in a state right now. That's what Orlando is for.

44
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: Is he not taking care of your feet? Because my husband,

45
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: and God bless him, actually gave me a little petty

46
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: he did, he did. How long have you guys been married. Well,

47
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: this is a funny story. We've been married what eight

48
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: years now together thirteen, But we've never lived together until

49
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: COVID because he's under contract in another state and I'm

50
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: under contract and have my studio and so we have

51
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: a commuter marriage, but we've never actually lived under the

52
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: same roof until COVID hit. Yeah, so it's like we're newlyweds. Yeah, well,

53
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 1: when are you giving you a pedicure? Obviously? Yeah, it's

54
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: kind of nice. I'm not even pregnant with his child.

55
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: So see, you should You should talk to your honey

56
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: and say, sweetheart, Paul did this for Delilah. Come on,

57
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: help help a girlfriend out. He's doing really, really good

58
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: under you know, despite the circumstances and all things considered

59
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: with what's going on in the world. He's being a

60
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: great partner and being you know, more sensitive than than

61
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: ever and knows that like I, I will crack at

62
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: the drop of a hat. I will crack like you know.

63
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'll just crack over the stupidest things. And uh,

64
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: I was. I was driving away, um, going to the

65
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: grocery store, and I was just like crying, and he

66
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: was and he was waving by it. I was just crying.

67
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 1: On on top of everything being so intense, I get

68
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: an extra access to my emotions through via my femones.

69
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: Well there there is that. But I gotta tell you

70
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: it's it's never going to go away. Now. Did anyone

71
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: warn you of this? Now that you are a mom,

72
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 1: it doesn't go away once the baby is born. You

73
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: are always going to be a hot mess when it

74
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: comes to anything having to do with your child. Did

75
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: you know? Did they warn you of that? I've always

76
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: been a hot mess. You've made me cry when you

77
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: released Never Wore White and and released to the world

78
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: that that you're going to be a mama. Yeah, I

79
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 1: thought it was a perfect way to share the news.

80
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: It's through music. I mean, that's how I communicate with people,

81
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: and um, this was a big massage to send. You've

82
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: somehow managed to slay me once again with music. And

83
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about that when we come back,

84
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: and what a beautifully beautifully shot and choreographed and lit

85
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: and everything the the visual I'm more like, I'm into lyrics,

86
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: you know, So a lot of times I don't like

87
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: videos because if the video is distracting me from the

88
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: story of the lyrics, I hate it, UM, because I

89
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: want to hear what you're saying. And but with Never

90
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 1: Were White, Oh my gosh, Katie, it was so beautiful.

91
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:58,239
Speaker 1: You're so beautiful. Thank you. You know, you take lyrics

92
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: and you wear them on a t shirt, you inscribe

93
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 1: them on the inside of wedding bands. Uh, you know,

94
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: you have them on a tomb stone. I mean, they

95
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: are the final mark. Lyrics are the most important, UM.

96
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: And if you can get the right combination of melody

97
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: and and music underneath, then that's golden. But you know,

98
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 1: we just wanted the lyrics to shine because the because

99
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: the lyrics are so meaningful and this is it's such

100
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: a moment in my own personal life that I really

101
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 1: wanted to share and be an open book with my

102
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: fans about. And I didn't want them to, like you said,

103
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: I didn't want them to be distracted there wasn't a

104
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: need for them to have, you know, any extra sugar

105
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 1: on the track. It just you needed to hear what

106
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: was being said. And that song came out, and then

107
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 1: COVID came down. And how many uh weeks have you

108
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,919
Speaker 1: and Orlando been quarantined? Did you actually like, yeah, we

109
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:59,679
Speaker 1: I came back from Australia. I actually I was in Australia. Um.

110
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: It was I think March twelve when it was announced

111
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: that Tom Hanks and his wife Rita had COVID and

112
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: they were they were also there, right, they were in

113
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: Australia at the time. Um. And then and I was

114
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: supposed to do I remember specifically, I was promoting Never

115
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: Worn White. Than I realized, oh, I'm about to do

116
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: a full day of press, and then they called they

117
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: canceled all the press because like one of the press

118
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: people that I was supposed to sit down and have

119
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: an interview with had just had dinner with Tom Hanks.

120
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: Come to find out, later tested positive but obviously has

121
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: um um healed from it, which is good. But I

122
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: was staying at the same hotel that they were staying

123
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: at three days prior, so I was like, oh, this

124
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: is getting real, and you know, it's been it's been

125
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: a gamut of emotions. It's been up and down, and

126
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: there was a lot of insane feelings in those first

127
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Um. And you know, I think we

128
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: can all all kind of see the light at the

129
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: end of the tunnel. Possibly, Um, I don't know what

130
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: the future holds. And they talk about a second wave, Um,

131
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: it's you know, we are suffering from the loss of

132
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: certainty for sure. And you're expecting and I I have

133
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: a daughter that's expecting and a daughter in law that's expecting,

134
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: and they're like, Mom, What's what's going to happen when

135
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: I have to go to labor. What's gonna happen here?

136
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: What's going to happen there? And I said, Honey, I

137
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: don't know, but I do know the one who created

138
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: that baby in your womb, and I'm going to put

139
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: my trust in him. And I think you need to

140
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: do the same thing because what else can you do? Right? Well,

141
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: my I mean my mom is similar. She she wakes

142
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: up and just she goes into her bathroom and is

143
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: in the bathtub just praying for an hour every day.

144
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: Or my my dad, you know, goes up to the

145
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: mountains in my home town of Santa Barbara and just

146
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: praised for an hour every morning. And I'm grateful for

147
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: those prayers, especially in a time like this. And Orlando

148
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: and I, you know, he chants every morning for an hour.

149
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: He's got a Buddhist practice and we pray. It's it's

150
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: it's definitely the the last thing that we do in

151
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: the first thing that we do. Um and put in

152
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: that practice more even more so these days. But yeah,

153
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:29,079
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, it's an it's another level, it's

154
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: another layer of uncertainty. Um. And I mean for me,

155
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: I just had to take it one day at a

156
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: time and trust in you know, the professionals and um,

157
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: you know, not like I have to kind of go

158
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: with the flow as far as planning goes. I'm grateful

159
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: that I didn't have to give birth last month. I mean,

160
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: I'm like those women that did our heroes and especially

161
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: having a child for the first time, you have no

162
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: idea what to compare it to. But I have to

163
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: put my faith entire power. I have to uh surrender

164
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: in a way. And I'm in my studio now that

165
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: my engineer came down on March tent and built in

166
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: my husband's barn, and it's in the loft of the barn,

167
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: a barn that's got you know, six dolls from my

168
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 1: horses and goats and dogs downstairs, and I've got twenty

169
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: baby chicks outside the room that is my studio. We

170
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 1: made the studio sound proof using you know those blankets

171
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: that movers use when they move furniture, like if they

172
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: come and move here, the blue blankets. I bought thirty

173
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:44,079
Speaker 1: of those and I stapled them inside the barn to

174
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 1: kind of give a sound cushion to my studio. And

175
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 1: I've got paper towels taped over the barn lights because

176
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: they're fluorescent, ugly, harsh barn lns. And I'm like, oh

177
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 1: my gosh, what am I gonna do? Everyone is their

178
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:05,080
Speaker 1: own mcgiver right now. I kind of like that though.

179
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: I'm kind of loving being the diver survival of the

180
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: professional fittest. And I'm putting a record out this summer,

181
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 1: and you know, just really Daisies, which is the first

182
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: song off of the record, and you know, it's not

183
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: gonna be a normal record cycle or promotion cycle where

184
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be out there being able to fans and

185
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: travel and um, you know, I had to make that

186
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: decision either put it out now or delay until next year.

187
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,680
Speaker 1: And I was like, look, I'm how about a child,

188
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: but one thing for certain, and I'm gonna go into

189
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 1: another version of my own personal quarantine. And um, I've

190
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: been you know, I've been writing this body of work

191
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: for two years now, and I think that by summertime,

192
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: we're all gonna want to Like, we already want to dance.

193
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 1: We already have ants in our pants. We want to dance,

194
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: whether we'll be dancing at home, dancing in the streets,

195
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,599
Speaker 1: dancing in the parks, we want to dance. People, you

196
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 1: want to listen to music. People want to be lifted

197
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: up and inspired. Right. D D my girlfriend d D

198
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 1: who's my office manager, but she's also my oldest and

199
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,079
Speaker 1: dearest friend. We've been friends since we were nine years old.

200
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 1: She put a post on social media the other day

201
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: that just said, when all else fails and nothing else matters,

202
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: music remains that great. You know, It's really gotten me

203
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: through some dark times. And these times have been dark.

204
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: And well, I my husband and I just adopted a

205
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: teenager last year. In fact, her adoption was finalized a

206
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: week before two weeks before the COVID quarantine hit, we

207
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 1: were in another state. We were in Missouri finalizing her adoption.

208
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: She's been in foster care for years and just had

209
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: a really tough go of it. And when she heard

210
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 1: I got to interview you today, she said, Mom, please

211
00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: tell her that our dance team, every song that we

212
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: chose was one of her songs, and please tell her

213
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 1: how her music got me through the toughest times in

214
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: my life. So Brier just wanted you to know. And this,

215
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: this kid, she's so beautiful. She has been through hell

216
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: and and she's still standing and she's still dancing. So uh,

217
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: Usually I'm struggling with something emotionally or just you know,

218
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: in my own little tunnel, and it's really like something

219
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: inside of me. I think my soul is writing this

220
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: song and reminding me that I have and can you know,

221
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: get through whatever I'm going through and I can continue

222
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 1: to put one ft in front of the other. And

223
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: and and Daisy's was a song I wrote in February

224
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: actually basically just about you know, all all the noise

225
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 1: and all the laughter and eye rolling that comes along

226
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: with having a big dream. Um for me, it was

227
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: you know, it came from my friends and family when

228
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 1: I was when I was in my team years, when

229
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 1: I would tell them that this is what my dream

230
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: is and this is how I'm going to execute it

231
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,599
Speaker 1: and this is what I'm going to do when I

232
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 1: you know, grow up. And I mean I still continued

233
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: in my life from the comments on social media to

234
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 1: um whatever, you know, the media of what they think

235
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: that I should be or sound like, or what I'm

236
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: what I am doing right or what I am doing wrong.

237
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the noise never stops, but during quarantine

238
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: because the amount of time we've all had reflected and

239
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: maybe being that we've taken things for granted that you know,

240
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: maybe we've taken our dreams for granted or we put

241
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: them on the shelf in a box in the attic

242
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: and you realize, oh, what when did I give us

243
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: all my dreams? And why? And um, I think for me,

244
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:54,239
Speaker 1: it's like I never knew that the chance or opportunity

245
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: would be taken away from me, like it has the freedom.

246
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: And when we get that freedom back, I hope that

247
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: people are ready to go after living their best life

248
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: possible in a new way. You know, yeah, amen to that,

249
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: Well you are going to I gotta tell you, I

250
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: started to say this earlier. Your world is about to

251
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: be blown apart with this baby that God has blessed

252
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: you with. Because from now on, as soon as as

00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: going to be walking around outside of your body. My God,

255
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: somebody said that to me before my firstborn was born,

256
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: and I didn't didn't really process it. And the minute

257
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: he was born, those words came back to me and

258
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: I went, oh my gosh. And as soon as I could,

259
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: I called my mom and I said, I I Am

260
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: so sorry. She's like, so sorry for what on? He said,

261
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: I didn't know how much you loved me. That make
