And so I guess 176 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 4: my encouragement with that is, I mean, you don't want 177 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 4: to assume life is going to take certain turns such 178 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 4: as you know, terminal cancer, and I don't want to 179 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 4: put that type of energy out there. However, if there's 180 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 4: something that you want to do, and you can do it, 181 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 4: because we could have done it at that time, but 182 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 4: for whatever reason we put it off. Like, don't put 183 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 4: it off, as you know, you'll end up in South 184 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 4: Padre for three days and it'll be pretty miserable and 185 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 4: you you could have been on an Alaskan cruiser before. 186 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 4: So now my sister and I have that on our 187 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 4: bucket list to do for her. But it's nine years later, 188 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 4: we still haven't done it. 189 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 7: Are you someone who forces things? What do you mean, 190 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 7: like you said you forced that trip, you and your sister. 191 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, because I think we were we were clinging to like, 192 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 4: just we need to do something, We need to go 193 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 4: make a memory. We were desperate sort of like we 194 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 4: were desperate to go to Mexico. But then maybe if 195 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 4: South Padre would have gone better, we would have gone 196 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 4: to Mexico. But we were we realized, Okay, we couldn't. 197 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 4: If we can't make it to South Texas, we can't 198 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 4: make it to Mexico. So that's that's where we decided 199 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 4: it is. And and there are memorable things that happen 200 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 4: on that trip. You know, I think I gave you 201 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 4: like the og Pimp and Joy hat, which on that trip, 202 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 4: I was emailing with JD who was the designer of 203 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 4: the Pimp and Joy logo, and you know, the font 204 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 4: and the spacing and all the and so I have 205 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 4: very vivid memories of being at the beach house, exchanging 206 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 4: emails and downloading documents and going to my sister and 207 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 4: going to my mom like, hey, what do y'all think 208 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 4: of this? 209 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 3: What do you all think of that?

But right now, 475 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 10: here's a little bit of my review of Priscilla. Let's 476 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 10: get into it now. A spoiler free movie review of Priscilla. 477 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 10: You have Kaylee Spainey playing Priscilla in this movie. Jacob 478 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 10: Elordi plays Elvis. The movie is directed by Sophia Coppola, 479 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 10: who is a great director. She wrote the script for 480 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 10: this movie based on the book written by Priscilla Presley 481 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 10: who Priscilla is also an executive producer on this movie, 482 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 10: and I feel that is a very key role in 483 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 10: how I interpreted this movie and how I ended up 484 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 10: enjoying it so much. Because to say that the dynamic 485 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 10: between Elvis and Priscilla's relationship is toxic is controversial is 486 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 10: kind of an understatement when you really look at the 487 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 10: facts that he was in his twenties already a superstar 488 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 10: whenever he met Priscilla. While he was in the army 489 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 10: stationed in Germany. She was an army brat and she 490 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 10: was fourteen years old when they first met and started 491 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 10: spending time together. So the first twenty minutes of this movie, 492 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 10: it was really me getting adjusted to the idea of that. 493 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 10: And yes, this was back in the late fifties early sixties, 494 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 10: so maybe it was a little bit more common back then. 495 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 6: But still really weird. 496 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 10: And I feel the way we have Elvis placed in 497 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 10: our heads as being this superstar that is so beloved, 498 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 10: I don't think this movie was trying to diminish his reputation. 499 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 10: It was really just telling Priscilla's side of the story. 500 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,719 Speaker 10: It wasn't trying to paint him in a bad lig 501 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 10: or even give him the spotlight in this movie, because 502 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 10: it is all from her side of the relationship. But 503 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 10: what this movie helped me understand is what it's like 504 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 10: to be married to somebody who is that big of 505 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 10: a icon and that big of a presence, to be 506 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 10: with somebody who is not only famous but gets everything 507 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 10: that they want, has all the money to do anything 508 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 10: they could ever imagine. Going back to the early stages 509 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 10: of their relationship, where she's fourteen years old, Elvis is 510 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 10: in the army and he just lost his mother, and 511 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 10: that's kind of where their relationship really begins to grow, 512 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 10: because he was homesick, lost his mother, and he needed 513 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 10: somebody to confide in, and that is what Priscilla became 514 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 10: for him. She helped him get through that time. She 515 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 10: was the only one who really saw him in those dark, 516 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 10: intimate moments and became somebody that he really leaned on. 517 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 10: And in the book she says that their relationship was 518 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 10: strictly that. So the interesting part for me to see 519 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 10: in this movie was seeing a side of Elvis that 520 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:43,959 Speaker 10: we haven't seen before. 521 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: We all saw the Boz. 522 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 10: Luhrman movie last year, which is very big and flashy, 523 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 10: over the top, but that movie focused so much on 524 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 10: his music and his career and really the relationship he 525 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 10: had with Colonel Tom Parker, his manager, and it was 526 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 10: kind of their struggle, him his manager, being the villain 527 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 10: and Elvis being the hero of that story. Here, it's 528 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 10: a little bit different. Elvis isn't really seen as a 529 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 10: good guy. He's also not the main focus of this movie. 530 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 10: All the things that happened to Priscilla throughout the film 531 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 10: are as a result of him, but it's all how 532 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 10: his actions and his power influence her. So it's a 533 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 10: much different story that I really ended up finding to 534 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 10: be a more interesting story because it was a side 535 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 10: of him that we've never really seen before. 536 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 6: And it's really. 537 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 10: Showing the dynamic of somebody married to somebody so famous 538 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,919 Speaker 10: who ends up treating her the same way that he 539 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 10: treats everybody on his team. And it was so interesting 540 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 10: to see that dynamic that it's almost that she wasn't 541 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 10: a real life person to him. She was as how 542 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 10: Priscilla described him in her life to be kind. 543 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 6: Of his doll. 544 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 10: That he would dress up, tell her what to where, 545 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 10: tell her how to speak, tell her how everything he controlled. 546 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 10: Which rock stars, famous people, actors, musicians, they get so 547 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 10: used to getting their way and every aspect of their 548 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 10: life that he took that and translated into how he 549 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 10: controls the person that he's supposed to care about the most. 550 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 10: There are moments where she is the most important thing 551 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 10: in this world that you see throughout the film, but 552 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 10: there are also moments where he kind of forgets that. 553 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 10: It shows Elvis's ability to lose his temper in a second, 554 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 10: his relationship with pills and sleeping all day and partying 555 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 10: and having all these people around him all the time, 556 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 10: and the toll that takes on the partner in that relationship, 557 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 10: with Priscilla having to stay at home when he goes 558 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 10: on tour. We see that side of him, of him 559 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 10: being seen in tabloids, cheating on her and trying to 560 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 10: tell her that it's all made up. So there's a 561 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 10: lot of manipulation. There's a lot of gas lighting. There 562 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 10: was a lot of grooming early on, even though that 563 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 10: that wasn't really known to be a thing back in 564 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 10: that time. That is exactly what this movie shows. And again, 565 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 10: I don't think it was set out to villainize Elvis 566 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 10: or tarnish his image. I just think it was telling 567 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 10: her side of the story and based on her own words, 568 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 10: based on everything that she put in that book, and 569 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 10: I think it's very powerful. I found myself to be 570 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 10: more moved by Priscilla than I did Elvis last year, 571 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 10: and I think it's because it's an a twenty four 572 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 10: film and it just has a grittier feel to it, 573 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 10: even down to the actors' performances. I found myself being 574 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 10: fully into Jacob Bulordi as Elvis didn't fully look like him. 575 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 7: But there's the wardrobe. 576 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 10: I didn't really see him and think, oh, it's just 577 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 10: a guy from Euphoria. I bought into the fact that 578 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 10: he was playing Elvis. I thought he had the voice 579 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 10: down pretty well. Maybe all the mannerisms and showmanship like 580 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 10: of Elvis wasn't really showcasing this movie, but I don't 581 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 10: think it was supposed to. It was really more geared 582 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 10: towards the Elvis at home and even the way they 583 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 10: reference him in this movie. 584 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: They call him E or EP. 585 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 10: So it's kind of pulling the curtain back a little 586 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 10: bit more than we saw in Elvis in seeing him 587 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 10: just as human as he can be, because he's not 588 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 10: going to be a fully human character. To have somebody 589 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 10: that famous at that time, in no way they're going 590 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 10: to be human. So it was as human as I 591 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,919 Speaker 10: think that we're going to see Elvis, and showing his 592 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 10: dark side even more so than we saw in the 593 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 10: film last year, because yes, that one did showcase his 594 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 10: addiction and the way he had to fight through performances 595 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 10: and once he got to Vegas and all that, but 596 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 10: this one showed more the effects of him popping pills, 597 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 10: the effects of sleeping all day and the effects of 598 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 10: his temper. There are moments in this movie where it 599 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 10: gets very hostile between the two. You see these fits 600 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 10: of rage come out of him and then quickly apologize, 601 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,600 Speaker 10: therefore adding to the dynamic of their relationship that things 602 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 10: were not good. So for Priscilla, I give it four 603 00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 10: point five out of five. 604 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 6: Grace Lands Adam Adam. 605 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 11: Carril line, She's a queen of talking if you want so, 606 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 11: you know, she's getting really. 607 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 8: Not afraid to feel. 608 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 5: Tenisold soul. 609 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: Just let it flow. 610 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 7: No one can do we quite carry line. 611 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 6: It's sound of Caroline. 612 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 11: Hey, y'all, it's Caroline Hobby. 613 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 12: And this week on Get Real, I have Brian Johnson. 614 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 12: He is amazing and talks about how his life is 615 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 12: devoted to the betterment of humanity.

You have a dream you are first fifty 662 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 11: percent philosopher, fifty percent CEO, which you said, and you 663 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 11: are one hundred and one percent. See you give us 664 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 11: that extra one hundred and one percent committed to helping 665 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 11: create a world in which fifty one percent so you're 666 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 11: just tipping it over, You're tip the tipping point. Fifty 667 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 11: one percent of humanity is flourishing by the year twenty 668 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 11: fifty one. Okay, first off, that's awesome. I'm here for this, 669 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 11: but that's also so lofty. And how are we going 670 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 11: to get fifty one percent of the population be flourishing? 671 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 11: And what does flourishing mean exactly? And does that play 672 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 11: into RTA which I printed out your uh, you know, 673 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 11: like your Pillars of Faith for our TA. Yeah, so 674 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 11: do you kind of help me out with all that? 675 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 9: That is such a cool frame for everything, So we 676 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 9: can talk about that for a weekend, Caroline. So I 677 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 9: got that fifty one percent of humanity flourishing by twenty 678 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 9: fifty one, which to recognize the fact here that's insane. 679 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 11: It's on one side of the you're insane though, and 680 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 11: I like it. I think you're the one who's like 681 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 11: a good insane and I think you're going to take 682 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 11: us over the edge. So that's great. 683 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 9: Here's to the crazy ones, baby, But we can remove 684 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 9: the qualifier. I am certainly crazy, but I got that 685 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 9: mission from Martin Seligman, who founded the positive psychology movement 686 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 9: in the year two thousand. So when he founded that movement, 687 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 9: moving from kind of quote negative psychology, where they were 688 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 9: just focused on mostly how to move someone from negative 689 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 9: ten to negative five to zero. But he in the 690 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 9: year two thousand said yah, yeah, yeah, but what are 691 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 9: human beings capable of? How do we move them from 692 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 9: negative ten to five to zero to five to ten 693 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 9: to what are we capable of? And he said that 694 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 9: he wanted his research team to help create a world 695 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 9: moonshot goal in which there's science helps create a world 696 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 9: in which fifty one percent of humanity is flourishing by 697 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 9: twenty fifty one. The first time I heard that forever ago, 698 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 9: I thought it was crazy. I still think it's crazy. 699 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 9: And I tattooed my body with the goal, so you know, 700 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 9: I got heroic here, and then above it, I have 701 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 9: fifty one twenty fifty one. And my joke is, you 702 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,919 Speaker 9: know a lot of people science says if you write 703 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 9: down your goals, you increase the likelihood of hitting them 704 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 9: by forty two percent. So my joke is most people 705 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 9: write down their goals and a post it note and 706 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 9: put it up on their bathroom mirror. I put mine 707 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 9: somewhere where I can't miss it, and I'm hoping that 708 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 9: that increases the likelihood of doing it. Now. We're not 709 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 9: going to do it alone, obviously, but our mission is 710 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 9: can we help you? Can we help others of influence 711 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 9: who are committed to living their best lives make a 712 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 9: difference in their families, in their schools, and their communities 713 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 9: and their companies. And the answer to that, of course 714 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 9: is yes. It's what you do all day, every day. 715 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 9: And if more of us step up and show up 716 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 9: as our best selves, there's no question we can change 717 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 9: the world. And then that's the mission to which I've 718 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,800 Speaker 9: committed my life. And that's now a long answer to 719 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 9: your fifty one twenty fifty one where I got it 720 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 9: from and all the craziness that goes with it. 721 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:01,320 Speaker 11: Why are you devoting your life to the betterment of humanity? 722 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 11: Most people can't even get outside of their own little 723 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 11: ecosystem and their brain. Most people have so much trauma, drama, 724 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 11: life debris that they've gathered inherited all of it. You 725 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 11: know all that. So many people can't get past that. 726 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 11: How have you gotten past that? And why are you 727 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 11: now not focused on yourself? Because I feel like everyone 728 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 11: is to focus on self and like to get to 729 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,839 Speaker 11: the place where you're not focused on self and you're 730 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 11: so far like, obviously you're focused on yourself, but it's 731 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 11: the bigger hole of humanity. How did you get to 732 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:42,400 Speaker 11: that enlightenment? And why is that so important to you 733 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 11: that you tattooed on your body that you actually need 734 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,520 Speaker 11: the whole world to flourish, not just you. How did 735 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 11: you get to that place? And why are you there? 736 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 2: Ken? 737 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 9: Caroline, give me easy question here, my goodness, there's a 738 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 9: lot of ways I can answer that question, but the 739 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 9: one that arises for me is one of the last 740 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 9: chapters in the book. So I went to Catholic school 741 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 9: for twelve years, you know, and just my mom was 742 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 9: just a devout. 743 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 6: Woman. 744 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 9: And I remember the youngest of five kids. 745 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 11: I'm the youngest of five kids, youngest of. 746 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,479 Speaker 9: Five, right, and I remember I'm like ten, eleven, twelve 747 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 9: years old, and I did so I never did anything wrong, right, 748 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 9: I was that guy that was just the golden kid 749 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:21,439 Speaker 9: or whatever. 750 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 11: I did something like, you know, and my mom you 751 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 11: did okay, So you never did anything wrong and then 752 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 11: you did something to upset your mom. 753 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 9: Well, another chat, Caroline, But you know, my father was 754 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 9: an alcoholic. His dad was an alcoholic who struggle with 755 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 9: alcohol ended his own life. And you know, I like 756 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 9: to say I kind of father did my father's father 757 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 9: ended his own life struggle with alcohol. My dad did 758 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 9: his best struggle with alcohol, worked really hard. So you 759 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 9: know that whole dynamic. I was kind of the youngest 760 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 9: of five and the one that was supposed to be 761 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 9: doing everything the way that it's supposed to be done. 762 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 9: So I did something that my mom wasn't wasn't pleased with. 763 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 9: And I remember her grabbing me, which she never did, 764 00:36:57,680 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 9: and I can remember it like it was yesterday, and 765 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 9: this is this is a shoot almost forty years ago, right. 766 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 9: She grabs me by the shoulders and she looks me 767 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 9: straight in the eye and she shakes me a little 768 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,719 Speaker 9: bit and says, God gave you gifts and you must 769 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 9: give them to the world. 770 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 7: And it literally that's it. 771 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:12,439 Speaker 5: Again. 772 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 9: There's a lot of other things that have influenced me, obviously, 773 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 9: but that like the power of that moment for me. 774 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 9: And in the book, I talk about that story and 775 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 9: I say, you know what, to the extent you're open 776 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,439 Speaker 9: to us. Having developed a relationship in the preceding four 777 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 9: hundred and you know, whatever it was forty five ideas. 778 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 9: May I reach through or someone that you admire reach 779 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,479 Speaker 9: through and say, God gave you gifts, however you frame 780 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,800 Speaker 9: up your relationship to something bigger than yourself, and we 781 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 9: need you to give them to the world and for 782 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 9: whatever reason, and again emotionally, even thinking about it, it's 783 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,280 Speaker 9: important to me, you know. And this is the idea 784 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,240 Speaker 9: of being a hero. And our company is heroic public 785 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 9: benefit co operation. But I redefine what the word hero means. 786 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:56,319 Speaker 9: It's an ancient Greek word, and an ancient Greece, hero 787 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 9: didn't mean tough guy or killer of bad guys or 788 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 9: huge podcast, successful person or super Bowl champion. Obviously, it 789 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 9: meant protector. The word they picked for hero was protector. 790 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 9: And a hero has strength for two and a hero 791 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 9: is willing to do the hard work to have the 792 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 9: strength for two. And a hero's secret weapon, according to Yeah, 793 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 9: for your daughter, you and your husband, you and your community. 794 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,959 Speaker 9: And the hero's secret weapon in the ancient world was love. 795 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: And that was this week's Sunday Sampler. 796 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 2: Hopefully it made you want to check out a new 797 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 2: podcast that you haven't listened to before.
