1 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: One thing I do sometimes struggle with is the level 2 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: of compassion we should be having for our teens if 3 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: we grew up in a challenging environment, Like do any 4 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: of you have this thing where your teenager will be 5 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: going through something and it's real and their struggle is real, 6 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: and you validate that their struggle is real or it's 7 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: not that real, or it's not or it's like a 8 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: high class problem that you are dealing with them being 9 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: upset about and lacking a compassion or sensitivity chip because 10 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: you know what it's like to be in an alcoholic 11 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: or physically abusive or drug addiction or gambling, soaked, dysfunctional, 12 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: fucked up, smoked and drank while pregnant, throw the kids 13 00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: out in the backyard, pray for the best immoral, psychologically warped 14 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 1: household like I did. Like it's hard when our kids 15 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: like they didn't get the most expensive sneakers, or everyone 16 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 1: has this, or they're all going here, and like it's 17 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: hard to have compassion in those areas, And there has 18 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: to be a line where if it's something that seems 19 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: fairly real, you do validate their experience. You don't want 20 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 1: them to be experiencing the pain that you had. I mean, 21 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: there's fifty shades of horrible childhoods. And then you have 22 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 1: a child that really orders in uber eats, you know, 23 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: lives on asa e bulls, or has really nice clothes, 24 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: or never has to worry about a meal or going 25 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: on vacation or going to a camp. And I tell you, now, 26 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: there's no way for me to say my. 27 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: Daughter's not spoiled. 28 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: She goes to a nice school, she has nice things, 29 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: she has wonderful experience, she's a very good person. She's 30 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: a wonderful human being, and from what I understand, compared 31 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: to most other teens, she's exceptional. That's what other parents say. 32 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't have access to that many teens, 33 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: so I'm not one of these people. It's gonna be like, 34 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: my child's the smartest, my child's the best. I get 35 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: it from other people that they say she's really wonderful, 36 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: and she happens to do very well in school, completely 37 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: self regulated, having nothing to do with me. But you 38 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: just also want to find the line between validating what 39 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: they're going through and having compassion and not indulging every 40 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: single whim or struggle. They're not made of glass. They're 41 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: not supposed to be wrapped in bubble wrap. They're not 42 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: supposed to be fragile. Handle with care per se. Because 43 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: they have to deal with life, which is not fragile 44 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: handle with care. They have to be resilient, they have 45 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: to be strong, they have. 46 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: To be tough. 47 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: Different people have different ways of doing things. I was 48 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: just out with someone who said that their parents never 49 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: gave them anything, and they will give their kids very little, 50 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: even though they have a lot of. 51 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: Money, because they have to have that hunger. 52 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 1: I don't know that I subscribe to that specifically for myself, 53 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: because I had that hunger times a thousand, and that 54 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: I am very triggered by it. Because I was in 55 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: my thirties not knowing if I could afford a taxi 56 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: down or worrying about being able to order a drink. 57 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: I lived in like panic fear money noise, where I 58 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: would bounce checks and have insufficient funds fees, and then 59 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: you'd get five insufficient funds fees because one check was 60 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: bouncing another and the ATM would say, you don't have 61 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: enough money to take out forty dollars. And it was 62 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: very stressful and gave me anxiety. I really just don't 63 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: want my daughter to have that. I talked to mare 64 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: Cuban about this, Like he's on a private plan. He's 65 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: not putting his kids in, you know, in a train, 66 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: and they're not going to live the exact same life 67 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: that we lived. A you want better for your kids, 68 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: but it's a different hand they were dealt. It's a 69 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: hand to be dealt to be my daughter, like just 70 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: to have some people talk to her because of me. 71 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: Some people the first thing they say about her is 72 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: ask her about me. Sometimes she doesn't want me to 73 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: always go to school because she doesn't want it to. 74 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: Be about me. 75 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: I get that by the same token, she gets to 76 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: go to amazing things and we go to good sports 77 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: games and concerts. Like everybody has their own struggles, and 78 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: everybody has their own triumphs, and some have way more 79 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: struggles than others. So I just implore you to not overindulge, 80 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: but not over belittle based. 81 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: On your own experience. 82 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: Like my inner monologue is very different than my outer 83 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: monologue of my daughter sometimes because my inner monologue is like, 84 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: I mean. 85 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 2: Who gives a shit? 86 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: But I don't say that because she's not supposed to 87 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: feel the pain of what I felt, and she doesn't 88 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: know exactly what it's like to really suffer. And even 89 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: with relief work where I want her to come and 90 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: do it and she will, she hasn't experienced it to 91 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: the degree that I have. She hasn't been like in 92 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,719 Speaker 1: the trenches. I feel bad about that I have to. 93 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: I haven't wanted to expose her to how unsafe some 94 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: of the zones have been. And sometimes she's been at school, 95 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: and I could do better. I could definitely do better, 96 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: and having her feel and view what hardship is like, 97 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: so I can increase her compassion, so I can increase 98 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: her philanthropy. 99 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 2: It's hard. It's also hard for it to get our 100 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: kids to understand what's going on in the world. 101 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: But I don't understand a lot of what's going on 102 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: in the world. I don't read enough, so she doesn't 103 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 1: read enough. She reads for school. I don't know that 104 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: much about politics, so she she doesn't know that much 105 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: about politics. 106 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 2: Like I don't go to museums that much. 107 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: She hasn't been to that many museums unless it's field 108 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: trips that much. I don't travel that much out of work. 109 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: I do one or two trips a year with her, 110 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: which to me is substantial. We go to Europe, but 111 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: my friend's kids are older, so they're empty nesters. They're 112 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: in Saudi Arabia, they're in Doha, they're on Safari, like 113 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: I go to La I go to Paris for fashion week, 114 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: like I. You know, we beat ourselves up in a 115 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: million different ways. But I'm just saying that they're not 116 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: supposed to live the exact same life that we lived, 117 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: and we're not gonna make it perfect. We do the 118 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: best we can. I'm very glad that she self regulates 119 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: because I'm not good at that either. I'm not good 120 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: at a lot like I'm a good parent. I structure, 121 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: I'm strict, I'm on the case. I have a good, beautiful, sweet, kind, smart, 122 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: compassionate child, but I have many areas where. 123 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 2: I can improve. 124 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: VICKI gumbleson years ago in the house. So I talked 125 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: about her love tank being empty in her relationship. It 126 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: can happen in relationships that are romantic. Let me tell 127 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: you something. Your car and your engine are stripped and 128 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: you feel gross and disgusting and like you have a 129 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: jaloppy dirt bag car when your love tank with your 130 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: kids is not full, it's really the worst. So I've 131 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: been doing a bit of business travel. Now I do 132 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: a couple of days and then I come home for 133 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: giant stretches, and it's like on paper, I'm gonna be 134 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: with my daughter the whole time. We're gonna have all 135 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: this meaningful time. And when I'm away from her, I starve, 136 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: Like I just crave being back and like having just 137 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: moments in between her doing homework or like just hugging, 138 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: or just a car ride where we're laughing, or we 139 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: go to get popsicles, or the sit down dinner, which 140 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: is so critical and there have been books written about 141 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: the sit down I'm dinner with your family, which I 142 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: need to be way better at because she's coming home 143 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: from a practice or studying and she wants to order 144 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: into this and then it's like more transactional and it's 145 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: not as like substantial. When I cook them and I 146 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: like really plan a meal and we sit down and 147 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: it's plated nicely and we sit down together. She'll always say, 148 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: how was your day, And it's so cute because like 149 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: that's meaningful. But like we had Thanksgiving coming, I had 150 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: been away and then she said, can I go away 151 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: to New York to see my friends, and I had 152 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: someone go with her because I had just gotten off 153 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: a plane and I just needed to be home for 154 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: my mental and physical health, and she wanted to go 155 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: to New York. So I allowed her and treated her 156 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: to go to New York for two days. But then 157 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: it meant days we weren't together, and I also secretly 158 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: liked it because it meant some day as I could breathe. 159 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: But then she got back and I had like a 160 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: friend around, and then she had work to do, and like, 161 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: we still weren't vibing. And then it was before Thanksgiving 162 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: and something went off with the two of us. Something 163 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: went a little bit off, and then it permeated into Thanksgiving, 164 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: so it wasn't like a connected day, and Thanksgiving isn't 165 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: really a connected day anyway, because you're cooking, you're driving, 166 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: you're planning, you're getting dressed, you're transacting, and there's a 167 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: lot going on, and that's not what I mean by 168 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: meaningful connection. So my tank got even more depleted. And 169 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: then my daughter had a friend come visit. This was 170 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: the Thanksgiving break, so then she wanted to see her 171 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: absolute best friend, which I want for her because you're 172 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: only as happy as your least happy kid. And I 173 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: don't care if she's mad at me as much as like, 174 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: I want her happy with her friend. So she left 175 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: her best friend in Connecticut, so now she's with her friend. 176 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: And it was still a little snippy. And then Sunday 177 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: came and we both it's not just me to get starving, 178 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: it's her too, and we both were starving for it, 179 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: and she said, Mama, can we just stay around all 180 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: day in pajamas and watch movies? 181 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 2: And we watched a show all day. 182 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: In pajamas and snuggle with her head on my chest, 183 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: and then I made a really beautiful dinner for the 184 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: two of us. It was like scallops and brown rice, 185 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: and it was so nice to sit down together and 186 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 1: then get back in bed and then watch our favorite 187 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 1: holiday movie, which is The Family Stone Holds Up. 188 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 2: It is decades old. 189 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: Diane Keaton rest in Peace is in it, Sarah Jessica 190 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: Parker is in it. It is amazing, meaningful, not kitchy deep, 191 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: but also has very moments of light Christmas movies. And 192 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 1: we watched it because we're big on rituals and traditions. 193 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: And I was so fed that she came home from 194 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: school yesterday and on Monday was like, MoMA, can I 195 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: get into bed and can we watch because she. 196 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 2: Like craved it. 197 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: We both did and we were so cute with each other, 198 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: and like it was so nice that it was the 199 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: day before she went right back to school because it 200 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: kind of made up for the whole week of not 201 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: being fed and my tank being empty.

So I just need you, guys to 211 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: fill the tank, like please do it for me and 212 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 1: for you and for them. 213 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 2: It just heals me. It heals me to the core. 214 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: And I'm so happy because I am going away on 215 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: a secret mission that is supermodel secret that I can't 216 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 1: share with you, And like I was going to go 217 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: away for a couple more days because it's in a 218 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: beautiful exotic location, or you're flying all the way there 219 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: just for a shoot. 220 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 2: But I'm not. 221 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: I don't care about all the money. I'm going there 222 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,719 Speaker 1: to do a work and I just I don't want 223 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: to leave my daughter. I want to be back and 224 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: like I want my tank perpetually full right now, I'm 225 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: like craving it I am going on a trip. It 226 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: is also more unrelatable content. I can afford to fly private, 227 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: and I rarely do not rarely, but I don't always 228 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: do it because I do feel it's wasteful. 229 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: It has to be something that means something with a group. 230 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: And sometimes I'm flying for work and it's exhausting and 231 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: I have to do it quick turnaround and there are 232 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people with me, or I have to 233 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: carry a lot of shit, or it's a hard to 234 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: get to place, and then I'm exhausted and I don't 235 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: want to even do the thing I went there for. 236 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: And then I don't want to work anymore. 237 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: And I say to myself, like I can afford it, 238 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: and it's lavish, but like, why don't I fly private? 239 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: Because sometimes I like count up how much it actually costs, 240 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: and it's wasteful and like the fuel, and like I 241 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: always say, I can never break the seal, Like can't 242 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: I just become that person that's like, you know, successful, 243 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: Because people will be like, why do you want Spirit 244 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: Airlines once in a while. Why because it's got the 245 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: fastest route sometimes two different places. And why am I 246 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: on Jet Blue sometimes? Why because sometimes I'll take a 247 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: whole row for Britta and I And because it's convenient 248 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,599 Speaker 1: and they have good snacks, and because they have a 249 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: good lay down Jet Blue Mint. And people just have 250 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: all these judgments and I don't really care because I 251 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: will fly commercial all the time and have done it 252 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: so many times for relief work. Again, not relatable, but 253 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: I'm getting somewhere because it could be meaningful in your 254 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: own way. It could be about the mini bar, it 255 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: could be about the hotel expense, it could be about 256 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,720 Speaker 1: the sweater, it could be about whatever it is for you, 257 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: you know, going out to a restaurant, whatever your version 258 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: of a spurge that you can afford. Is. So I 259 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: have this amazing supermodel experience and I'm going on this 260 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: incredible trip that is impossible to get to and it's 261 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: gonna be hours and hours to get there like well 262 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: over ten hours versus you know, under five maybe, And 263 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: I said like, because I kept saying, why don't you 264 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: break the seal? And one time I broke the seal 265 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: because we couldn't get out of Aspen and it was 266 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: like a snow issue. And I was like, Brin, I'm 267 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: doing this treat for the two of us and we're 268 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: gonna enjoy it and celebrate it. And I will say 269 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: it felt like a crazy treat, like it didn't feel 270 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: like an entitled, snobby celebrity vibes. It was like, wait, 271 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: look at us, and look how hard Mommy worked and 272 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 1: I worked so hard, and look what we can do 273 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: for ourselves. And it was like a little inspiring between us. 274 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: It was inspired. It was like, wait, I don't need 275 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: a man, and you know I could do this for 276 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: ourselves and it had meaning. And the boat when I 277 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 1: did that with her, which I included you guys in 278 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 1: the journey, felt the same too. It didn't wasn't wastebault. 279 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't I was spoiled. It was on a work trip. 280 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: I maximized it because I was working and utilized it 281 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: for a work event. And then it was us getting 282 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: to have the freedom to go from that work event 283 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: in one location to another. Because of the boat. It 284 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 1: was meaningful connection. It was privacy when sometimes I get bothered. 285 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: It was not about the lap of luxury. It was 286 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: about the freedom to jump in and bond with her 287 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: and do all the sports all day, versus just being 288 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: transactional in a hotel. So again it's not relatable, but 289 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 1: you find your own version of this, but it had 290 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: greater meaning. And I broke the seal and then I 291 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: had this place that I'm going to which is so 292 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: incredibly hard to get to, and I was like, wait, 293 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: this is when you spurge and spend the money. This 294 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: is when you do it right. And I'm doing it right, 295 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna make an experience. 296 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: Out of it. 297 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: I'll probably get kevi arm and bring interesting food on 298 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 1: and have fun with it, and I'm going to document 299 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: the whole experience for my business trip. 300 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: So it is still business. 301 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: And it became a good reason because it combined all 302 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: things that I need. 303 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: So that's what I think. 304 00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: That's what I'm doing, and that's the story. 305 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 2: Most to do the faster, faster, most the past 306 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: Want to do to the faster
