Attend therapy, I do 28 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 2: try to eat healthy, you know, my body, soul. I 29 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 2: tried to take care of all that.

I'm a cancer just like you, 77 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 4: and I think I take family matters a little bit, 78 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 4: you know, more sentimental. My cousin, which I've grew up 79 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 4: with since I was little, she was like a sister 80 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 4: to me. We kind of fell out like three years ago, 81 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 4: and I feel like I keep trying to reach out 82 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 4: to her. I think it's been like the third attempt 83 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 4: and she's not receptive to that, and I'm starting to 84 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 4: kind of like give up. And you know, I do 85 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 4: get emotional when I think about those things, because like 86 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 4: I'm the type of person that, like if something went wrong. 87 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 4: I always think that, especially if his family, like we 88 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 4: got to like hash it out, because it really isn't 89 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 4: worth it at the end of the day, when someone 90 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 4: isn't receptive to trying to hash things out, do you 91 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 4: just like give up on them, especially if they're family. 92 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 4: Just want to pick your brain about that, and I 93 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 4: don't know. Hopefully you can help a sister out. Thank 94 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 4: you again, love your podcast and I hope to get 95 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 4: to hear from you. 96 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: Bye ooh An, I feel you. The crazy thing is 97 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: that I had a falling out with one of my 98 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: favorite cousins. We grew up together, and the whole thing like, 99 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: we had two falling outs, and I'll be honest, it 100 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: was my fault and I take full responsibility. So I 101 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 1: don't know what happened between you and your cousin, but regardless, 102 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if it was her fault, your fault. 103 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: The good thing here is that you are reaching out 104 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: to fix things. You're trying, and you have to try 105 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: until you feel like I think you've gotten to the 106 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: point where you're like, you know what, she's not receptive, 107 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: she's not open to it, and you have to respect that. 108 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: Everyone takes their own time to get over things. And 109 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: that's what happened with my cousin. I tried a couple 110 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: times before she was ready to talk to me, and 111 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: for her birthday or if I was thinking about her, 112 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: I would send her a message and since she wouldn't 113 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 1: respond until one day she was just like, you know what, Yeah, cool, 114 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: we got over it. But I think it's just a 115 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: matter of understanding. I have to respect her feelings and 116 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: respect her process and just maybe send a last message 117 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: and just say, hey, I'm here for you. The doors 118 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,679 Speaker 1: to my heart and to my home always be open. 119 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: I love you, and if you ever want to talk, 120 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: I am here. Leave that door open. So that way 121 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: she knows the ball is in her court and whenever 122 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: she's ready to reach out, she will. But I commend 123 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: you for trying, and I think that's a beautiful thing 124 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: you can tell yourself moving forward, whether she reaches out 125 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: or not, hopefully she does. You know what I tried. 126 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: I want her to know that I love her and 127 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: that I'm here for her. And that's all you can 128 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: really do, bab, and just let time do what it 129 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: has to do, you know. So I hope that helped, Kay, 130 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: And thank you so much for listening to my podcast. 131 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: I appreciate you very very much. Okay, so our next 132 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: question comes from Anna Hi to give. 133 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 5: I wanted to say that I love everything that you 134 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 5: have done. I am so re littable to you in 135 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 5: the sense that you have taken care of your siblings. 136 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 5: I love that about you, and that is what draw 137 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 5: me to you. That is what made me admire you 138 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 5: and want to be like you, and just you inspire me. 139 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 5: And I feel like I've lost my inspiration. I don't 140 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 5: know if it's because I hit the thirty years and 141 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 5: that just himming hard, or there's other things. I have 142 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 5: been going to therapy. As a Latina, it's not common, 143 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 5: so I don't talk to my family regarding that, but 144 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 5: I do talk to my family about everything else. So 145 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 5: I don't know what is going on at the moment 146 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 5: that I just feel stuck. I'm constantly drained. Oh I 147 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 5: want to do is sleep and I don't know what 148 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 5: it is that's happening. Do you have any advice or 149 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 5: any suggestions of how to get out of this? 150 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 3: Please let me know. 151 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: Thank you, and I get it. As women, aging is 152 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: not always easy, and I struggled with that. I can 153 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: be honest and tell you I struggled with that even now, 154 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: you know, because we live in a society where it's 155 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: so much pressure, especially for a woman. But when we 156 00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: switch that, I don't know if that's what's going on 157 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: with you, but I'm just, you know, talking about it 158 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: because you said you turn thirty and like things have 159 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: changed once you go into your thirties. I feel like 160 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: my thirties have been the best years of my life. 161 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: But it takes a little while for you to understand 162 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: that and to see that. I just started looking at 163 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: it from a different perspective and saying, Wow, I've accomplished 164 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: so much at this age. I'm so grateful. Like once 165 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: we change our shift to being grateful, having an attitude 166 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: of gratitude, it just changes things. I'm not entirely sure 167 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: what's happening. It could be a series of things. Are 168 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: you moving your body enough? You know, are you working out? 169 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: Like working out it's not just for you to look better, 170 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: it's for you to feel better. It's to remove and 171 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: release toxins from your mind, from your body, from your soul. 172 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: So I would suggest definitely moving your body a little more, 173 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 1: even if that means taking a hike something outside. Something 174 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: where you're sweating at least few times a week. That's 175 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: going to help a lot. Prayer in meditation helps a lot. 176 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: Check your hormones. That's another thing. Our hormones change quite 177 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: a bit, especially once we turn thirty. Things just start changing. 178 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: My hair starts growing. Here do you start feeling more 179 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: tired and all this stuff. So it's completely normal. What 180 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: you're feeling is normal. It does sound to me that 181 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 1: you might be entering, and I say this respectfully, like 182 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit of depression. So you have to 183 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: nip it in the bud right away. You have to 184 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: know I'm feeling these things. It's okay. I'm going to 185 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 1: embrace what I'm feeling, but you need to stop it. 186 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: Say you know what, as much as I want to sleep, 187 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: I'm I want to sleep for freaking ten hours. I'm 188 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: going to tell myself only eight hours. You have to 189 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: be very intentional and adamant about not letting yourself fall 190 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: into a dark place. It's an everyday thing. And believe me, 191 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: I understand, I have bad days. I have days where 192 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm just like, oh my gosh, I can't and you 193 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: have to just say, okay, I'm going to allow myself 194 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: to feel this right now, but tomorrow I got to 195 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 1: get on my shit, you know what I mean, Like 196 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: you have to just say, Okay, what makes me feel good? 197 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: What makes my so happy? If going on roll coaster 198 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: makes you, just go do it, you know what I mean? Like, 199 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: whatever is gonna make you excited about life again? Find 200 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 1: those things and as what am I grateful for? Three things? 201 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: You can name at least three things that you're grateful 202 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: for today, trust me. So that's going to help all 203 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 1: that stuff. The good thing is you're doing therapy, which 204 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: I'm so proud of you. Oh my god, you guys, 205 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: let's round of applause for her, because honestly, therapy is 206 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: you guys know, I'm a huge advocate for therapy. So 207 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: I'm glad that you're doing therapy. So you're releasing that stuff. 208 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: But check your hormones, work out, make sure you're meditating, 209 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: whatever that means to you, like feed your soul with 210 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 1: good things, positive things in the morning. Hopefully that helps. 211 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: I want to hear from you, Aanna, you got this girl. 212 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: I feel you. But you're a beautiful woman in her 213 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: thirties that's going to conquer the world. Okay, believe that. Okay, 214 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: So our final question comes from Karen. 215 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 3: Hi tikis, how are you hope you're doing amazing? I'm 216 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 3: not sure you remember it. About a couple months back, 217 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 3: I sent in a request for advice, just feeling so 218 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 3: lost because I had recently decided to leave my toxic job, 219 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 3: but I didn't really know what the heck was next 220 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 3: for me. So I had an epiphany and I kind 221 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 3: of realized and saw finally what it was that God 222 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 3: had intended for me to do, because I just felt 223 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 3: so excited and happy about it when I got that idea. 224 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 3: So I really want to open up a beauty bar. 225 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,959 Speaker 3: I really want to go to a Statician school, get 226 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 3: my stetition license, and just do facials, lashes, brows, all 227 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 3: things beauty at my little beauty bar, run my own business, 228 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 3: which just made me so happy. So my issue is 229 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 3: how do I get started. Unfortunately I don't have any savings. 230 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: I used up all my savings during the time that 231 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 3: I took off to just kind of get my life 232 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 3: back together. So I kind of have an idea of 233 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 3: what it is I want to do, it's just very 234 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 3: unclear of how I'm going to get there.
