Wow, I'm in my villain era. Okay, next one. 175 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 7: It's Hailey from Arizona. I'm a big fan and I 176 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 7: have kind of a predicament. I'm the youngest of four siblings. 177 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 7: My oldest brother and I have been estranged for a 178 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 7: few years now. He recently got married and moved across 179 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 7: the country. I was not invited, which I completely understand, 180 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 7: but my parents knew about it, along with another brother. 181 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 6: They knew about it for months, They. 182 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 7: Attended the wedding, they helped him move, and kept it 183 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 7: all a secret from me and my sister, all because 184 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 7: he asked them to What hurts isn't what my brother did. 185 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 7: I have totally come to expect that what hurts is 186 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 7: feeling like there's a pattern where everyone accommodates the difficult 187 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 7: sibling and the rest of us are just expected to 188 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 7: deal with the fallout. So my question for you is, 189 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 7: as brothers who have worked through conflict and rebuilt relationships, 190 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 7: what advice would you give for healing a family wound 191 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 7: when maybe it seems like accountability is one sided and 192 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 7: the people you're most disappointed in aren't the difficult family member, 193 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 7: but maybe the family members who help enable the behavior. 194 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 7: Would love to know your thoughts on this. 195 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 5: I love the podcast you guys are awesome. 196 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: Thinks Wow, well, I think you are therapized for sure. 197 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: She's this person is I think, already working on themselves, 198 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: which I think is incredible. Number One, you're doing a 199 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 1: great job because the way you're just communicating how you're 200 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: feeling about the situation, it's very impressive. And I feel 201 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: like this situation obviously is very complicated, and I'm sorry 202 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: that you didn't get invited to the wedding, and I'm 203 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: sorry it's a strange to your relationship. That's tough for family, 204 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: that's tough. But yes, there is some moves being made 205 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: on your behalf, which is a little strange. And I 206 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: feel like at least the family members that you're close with, 207 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 1: there's got to be some sort of family meeting and 208 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: just be like, guys, we got to figure this out 209 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: more of like an intervention. But right, well, well, yeah, 210 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: I got I agree with you, Joe, but I also 211 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 1: like the relationship might not be not healable, Like that's fine. 212 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: The family members that that are she's good with, I mean, 213 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: shouldn't be like finding out that you're hiding something with 214 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: an a strange family member. To make it less of 215 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: a blow for you like that's weird. I totally agree. Yeah, 216 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: I also think that, you know, it's especially painful when 217 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: it's your parents and you feel like they're prioritizing, you know, 218 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: another child over you, and it's a really complicated thing 219 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: for all all parties. However, I think, you know, given 220 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: the fact that you're Haley's processing this the way you 221 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: know you are, it means that you're coming to the 222 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:54,199 Speaker 1: conversation with balance and thoughtfulness and you know, at least 223 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: some empathy and compassion, knowing that it's so tricky. But 224 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 1: I do think a conversation is warranted. And just to 225 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: put it in the context of our dynamic and our experiences, 226 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: there have been plenty of times where one of us 227 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: felt a certain way, and including Franklin, you know, and 228 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 1: the fact is we're still mom and Dad's kids, and 229 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: they have to champion each of us in different ways, 230 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: even if they might feel like, well that one's clearly 231 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: in the wrong in the situation, or it's too nuanced 232 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 1: to say someone's wrong or right. They got to sort 233 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: of be Switzerland and love all their children equally even 234 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: when there's conflict. And I think I've taken a lot 235 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: of learning from that you know, and applied it to 236 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 1: even our brotherhood, and there have been times that been like, 237 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: all right, you know what, I get it. They need 238 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: to like prioritize that right now and their feelings and 239 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: hurt even if I might feel a certain way, I 240 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 1: think the conversations do and it should happen in like 241 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: a place that doesn't feel like an intense environment, just 242 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: like as you said, Joe, like a hang just or 243 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: maybe Kevin with you a hang to just air it 244 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: out and have a conversation. I think that's smart. It's 245 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: tough smart. Next up, Hi, Okay. 246 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 5: I had a question. 247 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 8: So my husband and I are married of eight years 248 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 8: and in a multicultural marriage. He's from Guatemala and I'm, 249 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 8: as he says, all Americans, born and raised in Washington State. 250 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 8: We have two little boys. But one challenge we faced 251 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 8: is realizing we had different expectations around simple things like cooking, cleaning, 252 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 8: parenting because of our cultural and family backgrounds. I'm just 253 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 8: wondering have any of you experienced cultural differences or family 254 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 8: differences showing up in every day married or relationships in 255 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 8: family life and what helps you worked through them as 256 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 8: a couple. 257 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 5: Thank you so much. 258 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 1: By Wow great question. I think I think a lot 259 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: of people will probably deal with this. Yes, yeah, I 260 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: think cultural differences I can only imagine. But like even 261 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: just how you were Raisa, as people like, you know, 262 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: if you're used to expecting something in relationship, I think 263 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: that's a poise for disaster. In my opinion, I think 264 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: if you expect something of someone without ever communicating that 265 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: that's what you're looking for, I think that's going to 266 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: head towards disaster pretty quickly. Expectations of the blueprint for 267 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: disappointment is something our father always used to say. Yeah, 268 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: so that's true marriage. But but as first, cultural differences, 269 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm also in a multicultural, multi religious family, 270 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: my wife being from India. There's a lot of things, 271 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: as you guys know, early in our relationship that took 272 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: some kind of figuring out, right, you know, just ways 273 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: in which the culture is just different. It's all you know, 274 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: communication and just certain ways in which things were done, 275 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: rituals and otherwise, whether that's you know us, the way 276 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: we do things here or the way they do things there. 277 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: It took, you know, a bit of a learning curve, 278 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: but I came to love kind of learning and and 279 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: finding kind of our rhythm within it, and there's it 280 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: just it just makes life so much more exciting and 281 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: the experiences you have so much more fulfilling when when 282 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: you're when you're experiencing something that your partner grew up 283 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: doing or or loves about their culture, and how you 284 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: apply that to your own life and the world you 285 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: build together. So I think it's it's sort of twofold. 286 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: There's one version where it's like I think there's a 287 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: conversation that we had around expectations around who's carrying what 288 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: responsibilities in the relationship, and then a separate one around 289 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: how can we embrace things that you love about your 290 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: culture and that I love about mine and celebrate these 291 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: things together and make it a part of the fabric 292 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: of who we are as a team. And you know 293 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: that that can be an exciting journey to go on. 294 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 1: I agree, I actually disagree. Yeah, I will say that 295 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: I do think that, like, it's hard when you have 296 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people expecting certain things in a household 297 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: just because of either gender or like role, Like I 298 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: don't necessarily I do not agree that that's how it 299 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: should roll. So it's definitely difficult when that's like embedded 300 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: in a lot of people based on where they're from. 301 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: That's a great point. 302 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 9: Moving on, Hey, so my name is Sabrina and I 303 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 9: live in Pensacola, Florida. So I just got. 304 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 5: Married two years ago and I moved. 305 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 9: From Rome, Georgia to Pensacola, And I was wondering how 306 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 9: y'all managed to like move away from like your parents, 307 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 9: because I know for me, it's kind of hard living 308 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 9: with it, like living without them. But now I was 309 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 9: a loving husband who I love so dearly, but it's 310 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 9: just so hard, like visiting my parents and then leaving 311 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 9: kind of getting that homesickness again. But I was just 312 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 9: wondering how y'all manage your time with like your parents 313 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 9: of like separating and having your own families. 314 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: Now, thank you for the question. We share our parents. Now, 315 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: our parents are. I can hear them. They're in the 316 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: other room and Dad, you know, is on the phone 317 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 1: walking around. Obviously, not everybody has that luxury of being 318 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: able to get you through parents to visit as often, 319 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,640 Speaker 1: and you have to go visit them a couple times 320 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: a year if you're lucky. There was definitely seasons where 321 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: you know, we got the taste of it. COVID and 322 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: all that where we didn't get to see our parents 323 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: for quite a while, right, and that could be really tough. 324 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: I mean, just even I moved pretty far a couple 325 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 1: of years ago from where my family was and felt 326 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 1: so lonely, like the first time in my life, I 327 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: felt like, wow, I feel pretty alone, like pretty separated, 328 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: pretty far from from fam. But I found ways to 329 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,920 Speaker 1: look forward to seeing them and making a proper plan 330 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: either meeting them halfway or whatever. And also finding a 331 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: good community for yourself. You know, finding some good friends 332 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: is important, and if you can do that, I think 333 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: it's great. And also I think there's been like a 334 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: lot some fun things on Zoom came out of COVID. 335 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 1: We were doing a lot of like game nights on 336 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,439 Speaker 1: Zoo and even with my parents. I don't know if 337 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: your parents are tech savvy, but there's a game called 338 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: Code Names. It's a good one for the family online. 339 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: We should do it. You can play on Zoom. Try 340 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: that out with your parents. I think adulting can be 341 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: a really liberating experience too. When you, you know, move 342 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: out on your own, you start to think about, you know, 343 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: what do I want to put on my grocery list 344 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: and what's my laundry day, and you start to build 345 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: those those systems, even if you don't stick to it 346 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: and don't put the pressure on it, because there's there's 347 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 1: going to be chaotic moments. But I think you can 348 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: find ways to sort of gamify it and be like, 349 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: you know, this can be fun defining who I am 350 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: as an adult and what my home looks and feels like. 351 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: And then you know, FaceTime is. 352 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 10: An incredible tool for all relationship So FaceTime as much 353 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 10: as you can and try to, you know, kind offset 354 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 10: some of that home sickness. 355 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: I just got one of those TVs that roll around 356 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 1: that you get all those ads for and it's got 357 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: zoom on it.

Well, 395 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: I'm going to the gym today. But I think probably 396 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 1: like little things help. Honestly, I like a little little 397 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:11,640 Speaker 1: morning walk, clear my head. And I just also try 398 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: not to poot my pants as much anymore. It's probably 399 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 1: step one of your day. Just don't poop my pants sometimes. 400 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 1: I did send that to our our group chat, days 401 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: without Pooping your pants zero when it happened to me 402 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: a couple years maybe a year ago. Yeah, I had 403 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: this thought recently. It's more related to like social environments 404 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: and you know, big groups or group setting, whatever it is. 405 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: And and it was advice that I gave somebody else, 406 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: and I was like, man, I should listen to my 407 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: own advice, which I never do, but it was basically like, hey, 408 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: just just keep in mind that everybody else in this 409 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: room is probably having the same self talk thoughts that 410 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: you're having about what they just said, or how they look, 411 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 1: or how you know their stature in the room socially, 412 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: all those things were all doing it in real time, 413 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: and the first person be like, I'm not I'm just 414 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: one hundred percent of company, like they're full of hit. 415 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: I think, just it's that old thing of like imagine 416 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: that everyone else in the room is is not worring 417 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: like that thing, but apply it to the fact that 418 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,439 Speaker 1: everyone else is probably feeling some level of insecurity at 419 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: every every given moment. It should take some pressure off 420 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: and allow you to just be yourself and know that 421 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 1: confidence isn't just about the way you look or how 422 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: you feel or whatever. It's a frame of mind. It's 423 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: a it's a mindset I love that you have to adopt, 424 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: and you have to choose to be confident and happy 425 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,719 Speaker 1: and to feel the best version of yourself each day. 426 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: And when you don't to that point, Joe, I think 427 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,479 Speaker 1: taking a walk's a great call. Watching something that's going 428 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 1: to make you feel uplifted and happy. There's so much 429 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,679 Speaker 1: like doom scrolling that happens, and it only weighs in 430 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: further into your confidence.
