Speaker 1: I know, I feel like I have a few of them.
Speaker 1: I can really pinpoint one. What about you? What are
Speaker 1: you thinking? Well, nothing that pertains to me, but I know,
Speaker 1: do what it perfect that you know because you never
Speaker 1: share anything? You know? Maybe it's because you never share anything.
Speaker 1: Have you asked yourself that question? Nobody other you would
Speaker 1: want them to like you didn't have no ship moment.
Speaker 1: You've been on the show for seven years? Six years
Speaker 1: ship moment on our show? Yeah, but that has to
Speaker 1: do with Marathon. There's many no my love. Yes, it
Speaker 1: does that you would have not on film? Yeah, you
Speaker 1: say oh shit. Yeah, I thought it was about everybody
Speaker 1: started saying to you, no, okay, talk about yourself.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I kind of never thought anything was
Speaker 2: like oh shit. I was always like, okay, that's cool whatever.
Speaker 2: I'm here to do this, this is what I'm here
Speaker 2: to do. People like it, don't like it, I'm okay
Speaker 2: with it. I thought it was like an oh shit
Speaker 2: moment on the show, And for me, I thought like
Speaker 2: my moment with Lenny was like oh shit, like that happened, right,
Speaker 2: that was pretty wild. Right, Well, I always take things
Speaker 2: for myself, So I mean there's so many O shit
Speaker 2: like our whole shit, I mean, sorry for it, and
Speaker 2: slip our show is like an oh shit moment, like
Speaker 2: think about it. So you know there's so many, but
Speaker 2: I felt like you were asking about us. My favorite
Speaker 2: oh shit moment of you was when you were having
Speaker 2: your Venue magazine party and Karen came in and asked
Speaker 2: you about Frankie and you threw her out of your party.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh shit, no she didn't.
Speaker 1: And your hands were flying in the air and you
Speaker 1: were going like a crazy person. Oh yeah. To me,
Speaker 1: that was like the best TV because I love watching
Speaker 1: you when you go crazy and you throw your hands
Speaker 1: in here. You've had so many. That's why I can't
Speaker 1: make such a good and I don't remember none of
Speaker 1: my own ship moments because I think I'm so much
Speaker 1: black out. I black out. Yeah it's I get something
Speaker 1: that's bigger than me. I didn't it. I know it's big.
Speaker 1: It just comes out, yeah, and I just can't even
Speaker 1: control myself myself back. Yeah. Yeah, but I know how
Speaker 1: many of them? So thank you? That was my favorite
Speaker 1: was one that was a good one.
Speaker 2: You get out?
Speaker 1: You did? You can?
Speaker 2: You drew out?
Speaker 1: In the day, nobody would throw anybody out. No, it's
Speaker 1: a very common housewife you saying. But back in the
Speaker 1: day it was like nobody was doing that. But yes
Speaker 1: I did, Meredith Marks. Now have this you can leave
Speaker 1: and everybody loves and I'm like, oh, please, Bro did
Speaker 1: that ten years ago? Yeah, thank you? I kind of did.
Speaker 1: Nobody did you get out? Or remember when you with
Speaker 1: your hands you were showing her with a door even
Speaker 1: though there was no door on a terrace and it
Speaker 1: was like eight entrances. That was funny.
Speaker 2: That was funny. Okay, what was one moment while filming
Speaker 2: that still makes you absolutely cringe?
Speaker 1: M it's because we've been doing it for such a
Speaker 1: long time.
Speaker 2: Nothing that makes you cringing. You just kind of you
Speaker 2: get a thick skin. Yeah, I still have a moment
Speaker 2: to this day, but you don't think.
Speaker 1: About the I'm not gonna lie. But after when I
Speaker 1: saw it, the Lenny moment that made me cringe. That
Speaker 1: for me wasn't so much shit. No, for me, it
Speaker 1: was more cringey because I was like, wow, like what
Speaker 1: he said, you know, like what he said, like the
Speaker 1: whole thing was just like super cringing, and you know
Speaker 1: what's super cringey to Mexico or the dolls, dolls or
Speaker 1: whatever like that was cringing. Yeah, that was cringeing. I actually.
Speaker 2: Remember in my skin at the moment when we were
Speaker 2: at a party in season two at Least a Pliners
Speaker 2: and we had a drag queen on the show, and
Speaker 2: he feted me and he was chasing me around a
Speaker 2: lady's a lady's Amelio Pucci luncheon that I helped put on,
Speaker 2: chasing me around like b Arthur with a big old
Speaker 2: wig and a handbag and running and I was running
Speaker 2: away from I don't even know why I ran away from.
Speaker 2: I think also because he was like seven feet tall,
Speaker 2: I think it was, and I was I was.
Speaker 1: Bending backwards and he was like leaning over me, and
Speaker 1: it was just so uncomfortable and I was so mortified.
Speaker 1: I've never even seen such behavior in my life. And
Speaker 1: to this day I cringe at me running away because
Speaker 1: I should have taken my shoe off. I end up
Speaker 1: taking out much. I wasn't my friend. I would have
Speaker 1: defended you.
Speaker 2: And hit him over the head, and so get out
Speaker 2: of here. With your crazy ass wig. But you know,
Speaker 2: I'm just too polite. You know, I wasn't raised that way.
Speaker 2: What was the most meaningful moment with another castmate that
Speaker 2: was caught on film?
Speaker 1: All my meaningful moments are with you friends, meaningful? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was my special the real Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we go deep, we get real and them.
Speaker 2: We have so much empathy for each other. It's a
Speaker 2: beautiful thing. Yeah, hopefully you all have a good friend
Speaker 2: like I have an Alexia and vice versa.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: What was one moment that you had with a fellow
Speaker 2: cast memory or that wasn't filmed you wished was Oh,
Speaker 2: that wasn't filmed.
Speaker 1: Sometimes not all the scenes make it.
Speaker 2: Well, no, it says that wasn't filmed and you wished
Speaker 2: it was. Well I I thought, like you that it's
Speaker 2: a moment that didn't make it. So let's go with that,
Speaker 2: because that wouldn't make sense the other way.
Speaker 1: Okay, sometimes not all the scenes making it. After Oh,
Speaker 1: we wish that would have made it. But I feel
Speaker 1: like all our scenes make it when you and I film,
Speaker 1: that's scenes. But I mean it could be with any
Speaker 1: other cast member, So like, do you have any with
Speaker 1: any other cast members that didn't make it.
Speaker 2: I think every time I do a scene with you,
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god, it was so good. We
Speaker 2: nailed it, and they usually like ninety eight point nine
Speaker 2: percent of.
Speaker 1: The time make it. I really know. I'm trying to
Speaker 1: think to see if maybe with some of the other
Speaker 1: girls scenes some time I made it.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't remember.
Speaker 2: I can think of plenty that didn't make it, and
Speaker 2: I'm so glad they didn't make them because they were dreadful.
Speaker 2: I saw the dread, and everyone else saw the dread in.
Speaker 1: The scene and they got it. Thank you, baby, g Yes.
Speaker 1: Uh huh m hmm.
Speaker 2: Many housewives have been stepping away from filming. At what
Speaker 2: point do you think either of you able step away?
Speaker 1: I really can talk about that. That is true that
Speaker 1: many housewives have been, you know, stepping away from filming,
Speaker 1: and you and I have been talking about this a
Speaker 1: lot lately, and we have been talking a lot about it.
Speaker 1: You know, I've seen it. You know. I feel like
Speaker 1: I was one of the first housewives that stepped away
Speaker 1: from filming when Frankie got into the accident and I
Speaker 1: decided to step down because I wasn't mentally capable of
Speaker 1: doing this emotionally psychologically well, I mean, everybody handles their
Speaker 1: journey different, you know, and we saw that with Gertie.
Speaker 1: That was so courageous this season. You know, for me,
Speaker 1: the medical things are very tough for me to share
Speaker 1: because I am so it's not because it's private. I
Speaker 1: don't want to say that it's because no work for you.
Speaker 1: But for me, it's not that it's private because if
Speaker 1: I can help anyone, to inspire anybody, But for me,
Speaker 1: it's because I'm in so much pain that I just
Speaker 1: can't get myself together. Yeah, I just can't. Like I
Speaker 1: just can't. So, like I said, I feel like I
Speaker 1: was one of the first ones that did that because emotionally, mentally, psychologically,
Speaker 1: I couldn't do it. And you know, the network supported
Speaker 1: me and the producers and everyone, and it was obviously
Speaker 1: the best decision that I made for me and my family.
Speaker 1: And I still think the same thirteen years later, that
Speaker 1: I would be willing to step down, and I would
Speaker 1: step down if I you know, my family is the
Speaker 1: most important thing to me. Yeah, you always say that.
Speaker 1: I've always said that publicly, and I really do believe it,
Speaker 1: and I think that that's I mean that's me particularly.
Speaker 1: You know, I feel like I would have a lot
Speaker 1: like longevity, you know, as far as I got the
Speaker 1: women go. You know, I feel like I belong and
Speaker 1: I could be part of this as long as I
Speaker 1: want to be. You know, I think I'm just one
Speaker 1: of those people that I could be there forever if
Speaker 1: that's what I would choose. But you know, I also
Speaker 1: believe that, you know, sometimes you have to know when
Speaker 1: when to go. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I feel like the housewives, the franchisees, a lot of
Speaker 2: them are like falling apart and they're just trying to
Speaker 2: redo it and paste the whole thing back together in
Speaker 2: a different way. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: it's the same thing over and over again. I just
Speaker 2: don't know how long it's going to keep going on.
Speaker 2: And you know, I'm here for the ride as long
Speaker 2: as they want to have me and as long as
Speaker 2: I'm still having fun doing it, because I do enjoy
Speaker 2: doing it. I try to make my job fun and
Speaker 2: you know, and that's the most important thing. You have
Speaker 2: to love what you do. And I love what I do.
Speaker 2: And when I stop loving it, then I'm out. What's
Speaker 2: that special thing that Miami has that. No other franchise,
Speaker 2: Sassong s. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I feel like we just have like that, you know,
Speaker 1: that flavor, that sexiness, like that, we have fun. You know,
Speaker 1: we're unique. We're like different, you know. We we fight hard,
Speaker 1: but we love hard. Yeah, there's a lot of friendships
Speaker 1: in this franchise. Yeah, I feel like on a lot
Speaker 1: of the other ones, the women really are not friends,
Speaker 1: don't like each other too much. It's just like a
Speaker 1: bad thing. Because I think it is, you know, I
Speaker 1: want to see it's a good thing. I like to
Speaker 1: think it's a beautiful I love it. I was just
Speaker 1: two days ago with Lars and Lisa we missed you, yeah,
Speaker 1: and Julie and Kiki and you know, and they see
Speaker 1: us and they're like, oh my god. You guys are
Speaker 1: like real friends because you can tell we like talk
Speaker 1: to each other, like each other, you know, like real friends.
Speaker 1: We listen to each other, we enjoy being with each other,
Speaker 1: we laugh, you know. And I feel that's an anomaly
Speaker 1: in the for sure, you know. But by the way,
Speaker 1: I mean, it could fluctual, you know, it could change
Speaker 1: being from season to season. But you know, I think
Speaker 1: that that's what everyone loves about Miami besides our city,
Speaker 1: you know, that's so gorgeous. And the way you know,
Speaker 1: we dress, the way we look, the way we speak,
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, we bring that, you know,
Speaker 1: we bring the fact that this is how this show
Speaker 1: was really like originated, Like the real women that are
Speaker 1: friends that have things in common and we know how
Speaker 1: to disagree and have a fight, but then they come
Speaker 1: back together. Yeah, And I think that's really and the
Speaker 1: most special thing about it. And we have a lot
Speaker 1: of fun together. There's a's a it's a fun group
Speaker 1: of people, and there's humor in our show. A lot
Speaker 1: of the shows are very serious and dry or toxic.
Speaker 1: I think that people enjoy watching us live nice lives,
Speaker 1: have fun together, dress, agree, get back together and have
Speaker 1: some real friendships. There's some long friendships here, you know.
Speaker 1: And we're all so different, which makes it like really
Speaker 1: cool alsome everybody, right, We're all different age groups, different ethnicities,
Speaker 1: different backgrounds, and you know, and we just all like
Speaker 1: come together and we like make it work and authentically
Speaker 1: like each other, which is kind of crazy because people
Speaker 1: and you know, I know what America likes. America likes
Speaker 1: to see people fighting and writing all these like vicious
Speaker 1: comments and all that, and I don't like that. I'm like,
Speaker 1: you know, why can't we just go back to the
Speaker 1: times where you know, people wanted to watch TV and
Speaker 1: wanted to see women liking each other having fun like
Speaker 1: the Golden Girls, you know, yeah, you know what they
Speaker 1: would still talk like we might remember the child the
Speaker 1: Golden Girls that I watch with my grandmother and still
Speaker 1: watch them, by the way, and they disagree. They're all different,
Speaker 1: you know, they're all different, of course, and all this,
Speaker 1: and they were fight but then they would come together,
Speaker 1: you know, And I feel like we have chacecake at midnight,
Speaker 1: But are you skinny bitches that you wont do it?
Speaker 1: You'll do everything else, but you wanted the cheesecake with
Speaker 1: me being the one in the cheese cheesecake.
Speaker 2: You know what I have to now that you're talking
Speaker 2: about that, And I don't want to do any kind
Speaker 2: of a sidebar, but I must. This whole thing that
Speaker 2: happened in New Jersey is so horrible. I can't even
Speaker 2: stomach watching it. It's disgusting. And everyone's like, oho, sar,
Speaker 2: do you want to like sasty?
Speaker 1: And that's what they want? Is that? What kind of
Speaker 1: behavior is that?
Speaker 2: It's horrible someone choking one personally, I don't want to
Speaker 2: put a go through a glass over your head.
Speaker 1: It was how do they allow that? I mean there
Speaker 1: has to be like in every you know, this is
Speaker 1: a job, Like that's a liability, this is a job,
Speaker 1: and like I'm sure, but I'm just saying in any
Speaker 1: work environment, you know, people that would get fired for
Speaker 1: this is what I'm saying. Like even if like let's say,
Speaker 1: even if it's like a company and they have, like
Speaker 1: they say, their company party, their Christmas party, and that
Speaker 1: happens between two employees, I'm sure there's repercussions. There's repercussions,
Speaker 1: but you know, but that's not enough. Like if you're
Speaker 1: really you know, and I happen to be friendly with
Speaker 1: Jennifer and I love Jennifer and she's really not like that,
Speaker 1: but they put you in that position and Danielle got
Speaker 1: in her face. I'm not saying too right, but what
Speaker 1: I'm trying to say is that Danielle got in her face. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like that, And I was like, Okay, well that happened
Speaker 1: on our show too, in season two with the slap
Speaker 1: Joanna and Adriana. We were doing that a long time
Speaker 1: ago too, but I feel like, well, when she threw
Speaker 1: a glass that also lost. Oh yeah, I don't think
Speaker 1: violence should be tolerated.
Speaker 2: And I don't think either if you can't use your
Speaker 2: words or just give a look or walk away, then
Speaker 2: just don't even be there because it's somebody else around you.
Speaker 2: It's not you know, And I feel like to prove
Speaker 2: a point, I don't want to work in that environment.
Speaker 1: No, And to prove a point, you don't have to
Speaker 1: hit someone or you don't have to get physical with them.
Speaker 1: I really don't believe in that. Use your words well,
Speaker 1: I mean it's hard to use your words when you're
Speaker 1: dealing with sorry and people they spoke Spanish would be
Speaker 1: very satisfied and you will feel so good. It's like
Speaker 1: a release. Yeah yeah, Turkish. I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just think it's it's pretty crazy, and that's what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Like, I feel like a lot of these
Speaker 1: shows are going back. I thought we had made so
Speaker 1: much progress. I thought, you know, I felt like we
Speaker 1: had made so much progress, you know, especially you know,
Speaker 1: women supporting each other and just like you know, in
Speaker 1: a more like loving, supportive environment. And there we go again. Look,
Speaker 1: what's happening with Atlanta. Look what's happening with Jersey? Oh
Speaker 1: my god, Atlanta too? That was like I don't like that,
Speaker 1: Like why why are we going back? You know, it's
Speaker 1: kind of like we take ten steps. But I feel
Speaker 1: like Atlanta and and Jersey have always been like really
Speaker 1: dirty down, like that different than the other shows, like
Speaker 1: like they really go dirty down. It could be yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if you have characters wig pulling
Speaker 1: and you know it's just all the iconic crazy scenes.
Speaker 1: I feel do you think it's because the people want
Speaker 1: to watch that, you think the audience is really invested,
Speaker 1: But don't you or you think that's just a turnoff?
Speaker 1: How are people if you're reading, like what are people
Speaker 1: saying about it?
Speaker 2: I haven't read what people say. My thoughts are And
Speaker 2: we talked about this last week about the New New
Speaker 2: York cast. I think that people come on these shows
Speaker 2: and they think there's a template for New Jersey. I've
Speaker 2: got to be rough New Jersey style Atlanta. I got
Speaker 2: to be like these Atlanta girls to keep up or
Speaker 2: they're gonna get rid of me. And then they just
Speaker 2: they go over the top too much.
Speaker 1: They're watching, but there's doing it I mean, well, that's
Speaker 1: oji crazy behavior back in the day. Yeah, I mean yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I I just think it's really disappointing between
Speaker 1: you and I. I mean, I know I'm part of this,
Speaker 1: you know, because I I am part of the broader
Speaker 1: world and the franchise, but you know, as a cast
Speaker 1: member and as talent, I find it really disheartening and
Speaker 1: totally and just like sad. You know that I felt
Speaker 1: like all that was in the past. I mean, I
Speaker 1: know that we you.
Speaker 2: Know, in their real lives when they go out, because
Speaker 2: I know I behave the way I behave good point
Speaker 2: on an off camera, I'm the same person on and.
Speaker 1: Off I say the same thing. One say. I don't
Speaker 1: do anything in the show life that I don't do
Speaker 1: in my real life. Like people that know me, they're like, okay,
Speaker 1: this is like who you are. I can't imagine that
Speaker 1: they do that in their regular life. Like who would
Speaker 1: even do business with them, be friends with them. It's
Speaker 1: just not normal. It's just too much. It's just you know,
Speaker 1: when I get it that you say, well, you know
Speaker 1: it's TV and it's a show and whatnot, but you
Speaker 1: know this is a reality show. So it's like, are
Speaker 1: you willing to go that you really Yeah, yeah, why
Speaker 1: don't you start trying to be a little fake now? Yeah,
Speaker 1: like I'd rather be you be a little fake then,
Speaker 1: Like if this is really you and your real life
Speaker 1: and you're doing this kind of stuff, it's scary. It's
Speaker 1: a little scary. Absolutely, Okay. So the next couple of
Speaker 1: questions are all Bravo related. You guys love this, You

Speaker 1: from the fans, and and if you don't like it,
Speaker 1: then just don't, you know, then just don't be a
Speaker 1: fan or just like don't because I feel like we

Speaker 1: comes with the territory.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, if you're in the public eye, you're gonna get
Speaker 2: love and even more hate. And that's okay because I

Speaker 1: network with other Bravo labs? Mm?
Speaker 2: We Well, you and I both have been around since
Speaker 2: twenty ten, and we're friends with so many people from
Speaker 2: so many shows from over the years. And so you know,
Speaker 2: if we go to LA or New York, we go,
Speaker 2: we call our friends, we visit them, they come to town.
Speaker 1: They call us. Yeah, Miami's pretty popular. A lot of
Speaker 1: them come here, so yeah, hit this up and we
Speaker 1: go out with them.
Speaker 2: So, for example, today I got a text from Luando Steps.
Speaker 2: There's just old friendships with like you and Teresa and
Speaker 2: you know, friends with the Shaws from shows of Sunset
Speaker 2: and Frederick from.
Speaker 1: You're a Big Bra Celebrity. Yeah you like all that. Well.
Speaker 2: I became friends with all them back in the day
Speaker 2: when we started. I really haven't made a lot of
Speaker 2: new friends since we restarted. I have just all my
Speaker 2: old friends from back in the day.
Speaker 1: I agree. Yeah, the only one that I would love
Speaker 1: to be friends with friendlier would be Andy Cohen. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, I seem really not interested in anybody else
Speaker 1: we love, and I don't know, I just think I
Speaker 1: would love to hang out with him. He's really kind
Speaker 1: of like, you know, related or not, but he.
Speaker 2: Just seems so like peaceful and cool and easy, and
Speaker 2: we like easy, cool and peaceful and chill and funny.
Speaker 1: And he's a great dad. He's so good with his kids.
Speaker 1: I love the relationship.

Speaker 1: like I love I just you know, I feel like
Speaker 1: we have a special bond, like we've always said, with
Speaker 1: all these women that do the same thing we do.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like we get this, so we know,
Speaker 1: so we share that. And I really like and get
Speaker 1: along with her. I'm like, really particularly fond of all
Speaker 1: my OG's it's just we've go so way back. And
Speaker 1: his parents pretty cool too. She's so nice. She's so nice.
Speaker 2: She's like a Jewish mother, always sending gifts and checking
Speaker 2: on you, and she's always worried about everyone's mental health.
Speaker 2: And she's just a great, great person, regardless of the
Speaker 2: craziness that you see on TV. She's just really like
Speaker 2: a one on one good person. What's one city you
Speaker 2: would love to see Bravo make a housewife franchise out of.
Speaker 1: I mean maybe Chicago would be interesting, or you wants
Speaker 1: to Mi or Arizona, Nashville. I mean, I feel like
Speaker 1: right now it's oversaturated by the way it really is.
Speaker 1: I think that we're living different times, and unless the
Speaker 1: formula really changes, I feel like the more popular shows
Speaker 1: will be more like summer houses.
Speaker 2: And I was actually thinking I wouldn't mind seeing housewives
Speaker 2: of like Saudi Arabia, which will never happen we want
Speaker 2: to buy no, no, no, no, but I want to
Speaker 2: see behind the walls the dress by Ambarriceola.
Speaker 1: That's never going to happen, SA, Are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: Because it would never be real. Remember this is a
Speaker 1: real I know, I know, but show them. I would
Speaker 1: like to see that.
Speaker 2: I would like to see someone of different up the charade,
Speaker 2: what's underneath behind the wall?
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean I can say yeah, I saw
Speaker 1: it also yeah, parents, but you know, I wasn't thinking
Speaker 1: of Europe at this point because there are different culture
Speaker 1: you know, obviously the French, and like America would not
Speaker 1: really get it. I'm sorry. The question said it could
Speaker 1: be international international, so you're you're open to another No,
Speaker 1: I mean no, I feel like only Americans get these
Speaker 1: kind of shows. I feel like, you know, the cultures
Speaker 1: and people in different countries and continents don't understand this
Speaker 1: pop culture and the housewives, so I still I feel
Speaker 1: like it's an American thing, and but they have, you know,
Speaker 1: and I thinkwives, British housewives know and they canceled it.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, so no I don't. I don't think it works.
Speaker 1: But again, you know, I feel like instead of I
Speaker 1: don't think this is going to keep on growing. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is just me personal. I don't think there's going
Speaker 1: to be other cities unless they really changed the formula
Speaker 1: and what these shows are about. So I think people
Speaker 1: are getting really turned off by it.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, So these next couple of questions get a
Speaker 2: little personal. Ooh, what's a habit you haven't been able
Speaker 2: to break?
Speaker 1: Whoa? Eating and drinking? Well, yours is not eating? My
Speaker 1: love drink eat drinking? Wait, can we just clarify how
Speaker 1: eating is not a bad habit is necessary? Bad eating,
Speaker 1: it's necessary my love bad eating? Okay, you don't eat
Speaker 1: bad and it's not a bad habit. And drinking right
Speaker 1: like a bad habit would be like biting your nails. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so that's not our case, but that would be like
Speaker 1: a bad habit.
Speaker 2: Maybe laziness. I've become very lazy since I tired. What
Speaker 2: I did overcome was anxiety. I used to have a
Speaker 2: lot of anxiety, and I don't have it anymore. But
Speaker 2: I have so much anxiety. How did you overcome?
Speaker 1: In my friend? I need you being lazy and not
Speaker 1: leaving my house? You know, how could you doesn't like
Speaker 1: anxiety like starts and it's like, well, when I first
Speaker 1: stopped working, I had so much anxiety all the time.
Speaker 1: I didn't know what anxiety was. I don't know.
Speaker 2: I didn't know how to disconnect from it because it
Speaker 2: was so many years of working, working, working employees, people
Speaker 2: calling me my phone, blowing parents. It was so much
Speaker 2: all the time. It took me years. I had PTSD.
Speaker 2: Now I'm very good at relaxing, and I.
Speaker 1: That's a good habit. Then you turned it into a
Speaker 1: good habit, right.
Speaker 2: So I got rid of that anxiety that I had.
Speaker 2: M Yeah, so that's how I did that. So now
Speaker 2: I'm an expert relaxer. If anyone that needs tips on relaxing,
Speaker 2: text me.
Speaker 1: You know, I feel like maybe one of my bad
Speaker 1: habits that I have not been able to overcome is
Speaker 1: maybe like talking over you, or like talking too much.
Speaker 1: You're doing great to or this is phenomenal. See might
Speaker 1: be all the books I'm reading are working for me.
Speaker 2: I want everyone that listens to this to comment on
Speaker 2: next podcast and tell Alexia how great she did today. Yes,
Speaker 2: I think your anxiety is part of that, because you
Speaker 2: have a lot of anxiety.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well and you had a lot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've had a lot, and it gets you amped
Speaker 2: up and you're like, I gotta get this done because
Speaker 2: I'm onto the next thing, and I'm on the next thing,
Speaker 2: you know, and you're always like, have so much going on,
Speaker 2: and yeah, but.
Speaker 1: I want to work on that. I want to because
Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of times I don't let
Speaker 1: the other person talk. Yeah, I don't know it's a
Speaker 1: bad habit or I think it's anxiety. I mean it's
Speaker 1: just like a mixture. It's just like the way that
Speaker 1: I am. So maybe it's like something that I don't
Speaker 1: like that I recognize that I need to work on
Speaker 1: a little bit. Like beautiful. I think today is going swimmingly. Oh,
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 2: What's an unpopular opinion that you have that you actually
Speaker 2: feel really strongly about.
Speaker 1: Oh, we have a lot of unpopular opinions, which is
Speaker 1: my all My unpopular opinions are political and I can't
Speaker 1: say any of them, but yeah, right, yeah, I feel
Speaker 1: like a lot of them are related to politics, and
Speaker 1: that's why they're unpopular. Yeah, because there's that's what about exactly?
Speaker 2: If you could relive one day in your life, which
Speaker 2: day would that be? I bet you have a feel.
Speaker 1: There's so many definitely. I mean I feel like as
Speaker 1: a mom and as a mother, you know, their most
Speaker 1: special day is the day that your children are born.
Speaker 1: So that's you know that the day you still remember.
Speaker 1: You know, it's been thirty one years the first time,
Speaker 1: you know, I had to give birth to Peter and
Speaker 1: then to Frankie twenty seven years ago. Oh damn baby,
Speaker 1: and I remember, like I still remember the moment. I
Speaker 1: still remember when I had the emergency Cinesian like how
Speaker 1: it spelt like when they cut me. Oh I did,
Speaker 1: but it took too long, So I remember that so
Speaker 1: if I could relive that again, you know, the day
Speaker 1: that I became a mother was like, you know, everything
Speaker 1: would you want to feel that slice? Well except for that,
Speaker 1: but then they put so much on SJ. I couldn't
Speaker 1: even carry Peter because like I was vombiting. I got
Speaker 1: so nauseous because they gave me. Oh yeah, it makes
Speaker 1: me sick too. I mean, there's so many beautiful moments
Speaker 1: that I would love, you know, to relive, you know again.
Speaker 1: You know, the day I got married with Todd in
Speaker 1: Saint Bart's was was beautiful, just him and I just
Speaker 1: exchanging our vows alone is better, you know, just so many.
Speaker 1: There's so many, you know that I can just think about,
Speaker 1: you know that you would want to relive again. But
Speaker 1: I think that those are the ones that really, like,
Speaker 1: you know, stand out the most. You know, I had
Speaker 1: so many beautiful moments with my mom and conversations, oh
Speaker 1: my god, you know, with my dad, all the beautiful
Speaker 1: trips that I took with my dad, not knowing that
Speaker 1: he was going to have such a short life, you know,
Speaker 1: and he was going to pass away when he's fifty
Speaker 1: two years old. So it's so many of them. You know,
Speaker 1: there are things that make me cry. Yeah, I know,
Speaker 1: I was trying not to cry and like my voices
Speaker 1: like breaking, but yeah, yeah, but you know, with you yeah, no,
Speaker 1: for sure. You know, I, like I said, I've had
Speaker 1: so many beautiful moments, you know that I would love
Speaker 1: to relive with all the people that I've loved in
Speaker 1: my life. And imagine how many people I've loved and
Speaker 1: how many people I do love, you know that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, but you know what I carry inside, like
Speaker 1: in my heart, and that's why my heart is so
Speaker 1: filled of love, and so it's yours because I only
Speaker 1: have love for you know, all these people that were
Speaker 1: talking about, and all these moments and that's really all
Speaker 1: you take. That's all you take with you. And I
Speaker 1: feel like as we get over older, that's like what
Speaker 1: we learned. Yeah, you know that all these materials make.
Speaker 2: You have less friends. You you know, who you love,
Speaker 2: who you can trust. After a lot of time, you
Speaker 2: get a handful of friends. That's all the only people
Speaker 2: you want to spend time with, those only people that
Speaker 2: make you feel good.
Speaker 1: And me, we asked me, and even with you, you know,
Speaker 1: we've had so many beautiful moments, you know, as friends
Speaker 1: having fun and celebrating and oh, so imagine me living
Speaker 1: all those moments that good ones. We had some good ones,
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. So it's like there's so many
Speaker 1: of them, and you know, and I think that that's
Speaker 1: like the secret that people need to hold on to,
Speaker 1: like all the good and happy memories. Yeah, because that's
Speaker 1: why I live. That's why I live happily. And I
Speaker 1: live my life so differently because people say, oh my god,
Speaker 1: you've gone through so much, you know, and they're like
Speaker 1: they expect you to be miserable and angry and you know,
Speaker 1: full of hate and full of sadness and I'm not
Speaker 1: that person because I live my life differently and I
Speaker 1: always like to take all the good, all the happy,
Speaker 1: like that's that's what I really focus on, I swear.
Speaker 1: And I know you God, I know you're giving me
Speaker 1: that ability because it's such a virtue, Like it's such
Speaker 1: an amazing thing that I have that you can just
Speaker 1: because if God knows what I would be if I
Speaker 1: wouldn't be that way, oh no, no, no noo. So
Speaker 1: I just think of all that happy and and you
Speaker 1: know what, and there's for me the way that I
Speaker 1: look at in my perspective and my world and lectures world,
Speaker 1: there's more happiness and greatness and positive things than negative.
Speaker 2: I really do believe, oh absolutely, absolutely, one hundred percent.
Speaker 2: There are a lot of people that my God, the
Speaker 2: things that have had I don't want to go down
Speaker 2: at deep dark at but yeah, there's a lot of
Speaker 2: people that I remember my dad had this girl that
Speaker 2: he had. He had a few homes in this area
Speaker 2: where I live, and there was a girl that would
Speaker 2: come to this charity that he found helped fund. It's
Speaker 2: helping people that were like amputees or crippled to sail.
Speaker 2: Because my dad was a sailor, and he had this
Speaker 2: girl that he would have come stay in his home.
Speaker 2: She was so she was a theldemite baby. She was
Speaker 2: born without arms or legs. And she would drive a huge.
Speaker 1: Like what do you call that, like a winnebago, and
Speaker 1: she had dogs.
Speaker 2: And he would give her the house and she would
Speaker 2: stay there and she would go do the sailing classes,
Speaker 2: and she was so happy and giggly. My dad was like,
Speaker 2: this girl is so amazing. She's the happiest person in
Speaker 2: the whole world. No husband, no children, but she travels
Speaker 2: around in her winnebagel. I don't know how she would
Speaker 2: drive it without arms and legs and would go sailing.
Speaker 2: And she just lived her life happy against all odds.
Speaker 2: And we all need to always realize there's someone that
Speaker 2: has it worse, and and look at the blessings around you.
Speaker 2: Mayor So, I love how spiritual you are. What's the
Speaker 2: weirdest superstition secretly that you believe in? Oh, I got
Speaker 2: some weird ones, but I feel like it's they're very Latino.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure you have the same ones, like putting
Speaker 2: your purse on the floor because you lose your money, right,
Speaker 2: you have that one what about the toilet sea down?
Speaker 2: That's an Asian one?
Speaker 1: Oh, is it? I thought it was just like an
Speaker 1: obsessive control, like upset, like OCD, like I need to
Speaker 1: have the toilet seat down just because like esthetically it's
Speaker 1: like it it looks weird, like like I need it down.
Speaker 2: So the Asians believe that all of the negative toxins
Speaker 2: and evil spirits live in the toilets. You gotta put
Speaker 2: the sea down, you're.
Speaker 1: Keeping them out. And yeah, but what about when you
Speaker 1: open it to pee whatever and you shut it quickly again? Okay,
Speaker 1: I'd like that. So for me, it's not spiritual for superstitious.
Speaker 1: For me, it's just that I'm most CD and I
Speaker 1: have to see the toilets.
Speaker 2: You're keeping the too, You're keeping the bad juju out
Speaker 2: of your house. Do you know how many times in
Speaker 2: the middle of the night I go stumbling into the
Speaker 2: bathroom because I do tinkle a lot. Well, that's happened too,
Speaker 2: Or when the when the seat has been picked up,
Speaker 2: which doesn't happen because Booberreley is it down, but that
Speaker 2: has happened to me, And then I fall inside.
Speaker 1: There in the middle of the night. It's terrible do
Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about. The happened to me
Speaker 1: is that it stays. You know that bike I'm going
Speaker 1: by the Wayhotos I was talking about. Yeah, the warm sea,
Speaker 1: the warm seat and the flushing and the whole thing.
Speaker 2: Guys, Alexi, you had the best toilet on the planet.
Speaker 2: I was just telling you. You walk into the bathroom,
Speaker 2: the lid pops open, you sit on the seat, It's
Speaker 2: super warm. It feels you would have to get maracled.
Speaker 1: I would be like, bro, can you come out of
Speaker 1: the bath I don't want to? And everything I know.
Speaker 1: It also has the B day. Oh yeah, it's all there.
Speaker 2: It's got the perfect cleaner. When I sit on that toilet,
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm being swallowed by my mother in
Speaker 2: the hospital at birth. It's just like takes me back
Speaker 2: to the womb. It is so comfortable and delicious. And
Speaker 2: then when you get up, it flushes and the lick closes.
Speaker 2: I was like, well, okay, mister, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it does it offer you so it's so funny.
Speaker 1: So when we go on vacation, toilet my friend, yeah,
Speaker 1: well everyone should have one in their house. Honestly, it's
Speaker 1: life changing. It is life changing. I don't know what
Speaker 1: I'm doing it. I would do so much work there.
Speaker 1: Oh I know, I like I take longer just because
Speaker 1: I have that toilet. Oh, it's excellent. So when we
Speaker 1: go on vacation and we're like the hotel's obviously they
Speaker 1: don't have that, no matter what, you know, fancy hotel
Speaker 1: you stay at, and I forget, So I go pee
Speaker 1: and I don't flush. I know. It's like, hey, like
Speaker 1: we're not at home, like so I like, it's funny.
Speaker 1: So I pin, I'm always being to I'm not like you,
Speaker 1: but I can imagine if you will get used to
Speaker 1: mine and then he's like, you need to flush because
Speaker 1: I forget to flush. I never flushed anywhere, So God
Speaker 1: sad if I use your bathroom and I don't flush,
Speaker 1: don't judge me. It's just because I'm used to my
Speaker 1: total tolia.
Speaker 2: I know, the last few trips I took you, I
Speaker 2: was like, I'm.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm so used to the total doing it for me.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, I got it. Don't worry. It's true.
Speaker 1: Don't worry.
Speaker 2: I thought the toilet was closed. How has your relationship
Speaker 2: with God helped you throughout life?
Speaker 1: Everything? I mean, if God wasn't in my life, you know,
Speaker 1: and in my heart we'd have no peace, and then
Speaker 1: my yeah, I could not. And this is where you know,
Speaker 1: I don't understand, you know how people that you know
Speaker 1: don't know God or don't have a relationship with God
Speaker 1: or with you know, how they go through things because
Speaker 1: I feel that, you know, God has always been so
Speaker 1: present in my life. You know. I always went to
Speaker 1: Catholic school, and even though I wouldn't go to church
Speaker 1: every Sunday, is kind of like He's always lived in
Speaker 1: my heart. Like I have a direct communication relationship with him.
Speaker 1: I talk to God every single day in the shore
Speaker 1: when I'm driving. You know, I'm always thankful in the
Speaker 1: morning when I wake up, Like this morning I woke up,
Speaker 1: that was the first thing I did, you know. I
Speaker 1: talked to him like he's like my best friend, and
Speaker 1: like you can't let me down, like you got me
Speaker 1: and I got you, but like I need you. So
Speaker 1: you know, I talk to God like that, and you know,
Speaker 1: so my angels, I'm so filled with faith, and I
Speaker 1: think that that's why I've been able to get through
Speaker 1: so many things in my life. Absolutely, and for sure
Speaker 1: the time that my faith was tested the most, was
Speaker 1: it Frankie And and with Frankie's accent, like I saw
Speaker 1: like the miracle happen. So I have zero doubts that
Speaker 1: there's a God and there's you know, and there's you know,
Speaker 1: your angels and like the whole universe, universe just working. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when you believe in it, you have to believe in it.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, Oh my god, I feel like wish I were
Speaker 2: on church. I'm like, yes, Amen, praise Lord, pass that
Speaker 2: money asking around.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And you know, when I was younger, I don't
Speaker 1: know ever told you this, but my mom knows. I mean,
Speaker 1: my mom's no longer here, but my mom used to
Speaker 1: love to tell her friends this. And I would like
Speaker 1: write letters to God. Oh really. And it wasn't market.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like are you their godess me, Margaret. It
Speaker 1: was kind of like, are you their goddess me Alexia?
Speaker 1: And I'm not texting writing texting list, Oh I'm so
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I'm not writing about my period. I got
Speaker 1: favorite things on my mind. Oh my god, that was
Speaker 1: so good. So yeah, I used to write letters to
Speaker 1: God and you know, just like you know, like whatever
Speaker 1: it was like I was feeling what I would write
Speaker 1: to God and I felt so much better. And you know,
Speaker 1: I haven't done that a long time again with Frankie's accent,
Speaker 1: and I started doing that. Yeah, journaling is good, especially
Speaker 1: when you're going through something like that, because there's some
Speaker 1: other times when I mean, journaling is always good, that's true,
Speaker 1: but specifically that journ.
Speaker 2: But I imagined that if I did it, it would
Speaker 2: be good.
Speaker 1: Right, No, it is. It's very therapeutic. Yeah, and and
Speaker 1: at that moment it was. It was very good for me.
Speaker 1: But definitely like I have God present in my life
Speaker 1: every single day.
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, you can't live without God. He
Speaker 2: put us here and he's taken us out and we
Speaker 2: got to get along with him in the meantime. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and he's shown me a lot of blessings and things
Speaker 2: I've asked for one hundred per sid. You just got
Speaker 2: to let go. You got to let go and let
Speaker 2: him do his thing. You can't put a time frame
Speaker 2: on it. You can't demand and you can't expect and
Speaker 2: wait for it. You need to set it and you.
Speaker 1: Can question him because sometimes that happens to your question
Speaker 1: like why is this happening to me?
Speaker 2: Oh, because he's got a better plan for you, and
Speaker 2: you just set it out there and throw it into
Speaker 2: the universe and it will come around in an even
Speaker 2: better way than you even expected.
Speaker 1: Relics amen to that. Well, guys, it's been so much fun.
