Yeah, And she 77 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 3: was the first, and then I recently connected to the 78 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 3: Candle and she came on the show and it was 79 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 3: just beautiful how openly she sard. And then that led 80 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: to me meeting your mom at the People's Choice Awards 81 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 3: and then having dinner with her recently, and I was 82 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 3: just I want to say this because I think people 83 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 3: just don't. 84 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: Understand I've been to a Taco Tuesday. 85 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 3: I have not been to a Taco Tuesday, So. 86 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: Sorry, no tattle Tuesday, tattle free Tuesday. 87 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: I don't know. 88 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: I'm getting it. I don't want to get in trouble. 89 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 3: Your mum had been nicest thing. So my wife, my 90 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 3: wife wasn't there with me, but we're both vegan, and 91 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 3: so she had Chloe's chef make us a vegan meal. 92 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 93 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,799 Speaker 3: And I was saying to you earlier that I literally 94 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 3: felt like I was at my friend's mom's house. Like 95 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,679 Speaker 3: that's how she made me feel, really beautiful feelings. 96 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: So she is the best. She's so warm. She just 97 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: loves everyone to feel welcomed. She makes sure everyone is 98 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: thought of. And that's one of my favorite qualities of 99 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: her that I will never get over and never forget 100 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: and always it's just how she makes people feel. 101 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I hope you feel very welcome and safe today. 102 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: I do. 103 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 3: I don't want to dive right in. I was thinking 104 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 3: about this. You've been traveling so much lately. I feel 105 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: from what I see on Instagram, like you've been to 106 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 3: Paris and Japan and London, and then you're going to 107 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 3: be starting to shoot for the new show, and I 108 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 3: just feel like you're always on the move. I wonder 109 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: when was the last time you went somewhere where someone 110 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 3: didn't know who you were or actually, was there a 111 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 3: moment where someone said to you, who are you? What 112 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 3: do you do? Like? When was the last time you 113 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 3: had an interaction like that? You know what? 114 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: In Japan it's like that. You know, everyone's really respectful, 115 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: even if they might recognize you, they don't ask for photos, 116 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: and it's a really amazing experience. I think it's important, 117 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: you know, just to listen. I love my life. I 118 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: love everything that comes along with it. I am not complaining, 119 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 1: but a little glimpse of that, I think, especially for 120 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: the little ones, is so good. 121 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, no's that's definitely a beautiful experience. I think it's 122 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: nice for everyone to feel wanted and loved and then 123 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 3: also feel unseen. Yeah, like we almost crave both of those. 124 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 3: I was thinking about it today. You're always surrounded by 125 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 3: film crews, and you know, you have like three hundred 126 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 3: and fifty two million people that follow you on Instagram. 127 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 3: I wonder do you ever do you prioritize time alone? 128 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 3: Do you get time alone? And what does that look like? 129 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: I do? I get up really early. My morning workout 130 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: is my I don't want to say therapy session because 131 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: it's not like I'm really communicating things. But even if 132 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: I'm quiet and I'm in my zone, that's my mental 133 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: health check. Every morning. I love my workout. It keeps 134 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: me sane. I can't say that enough. That's my time 135 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: in the morning. Then as soon as everyone starts to 136 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: get up for school, the madness happens, and it's about 137 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: two hours of madness from getting four kids ready in 138 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: the morning, fed out the door to school. I drop 139 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: off school every day, and then I have a little 140 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: bit of time i'd say about twenty minutes driving back 141 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: where I just blast my music. I don't take any calls. 142 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 1: That's my alone time. I love it. And then I 143 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: get to the house and I start my full work 144 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: day and I'm committed and focused, and then the madness 145 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: of bad time, bedtime, dinner time, and once four babies 146 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: are asleep, and I just cherish that time at night 147 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: when everyone sleep and I can watch whatever show I 148 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: want and just have some alone time. So I do 149 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: take the time for myself. I think it's really important. 150 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, you said something beautiful before we started recording, 151 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 3: and I definitely want to go in that direction because 152 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 3: you were talking about the different platforms and how you 153 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 3: can show different parts of yourself, but you came here 154 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 3: because there was something specific, and I'd love to hear 155 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 3: that because I want to go in that direction with you. 156 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: I love your podcast. I've seen it and i've seen 157 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: I think I just love seeing the reels that pop 158 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: up with just a quick message that'll get you through 159 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: the day, that will remind you who you are, remind 160 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: you what you need to come across and see at 161 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: that moment in that day and carry you through the day. 162 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 163 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: So I think it's important for people to express like 164 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: how they feel and who they are a little bit 165 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: deeper and what's in their heart. And I think that's 166 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: kind of what this podcast is about. 167 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think, thank you for trusting me. I 168 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 3: really do value this and I don't take it for granted. 169 00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 3: But the interesting thing there is, I feel like there's 170 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 3: a beautiful statement in Japanese culture says that we have 171 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 3: three faces. One face we show to the world, the 172 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 3: second face we show to our friends and family, and 173 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 3: the third face no one sees. And I wonder, when 174 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 3: you're talking about your values and who you are, what's 175 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 3: the part of you that you think no one gets 176 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 3: to see in all these other places that you want 177 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: to share today. 178 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: I definitely think I show all my faces, but I 179 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: do think that people pick and choose what they want 180 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: to take from you. I do share journeys of mine 181 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: that have been challenges, whether it's like law school and 182 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: different projects and how starting a business and all of that. 183 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: It definitely weave that in throughout. But I think that 184 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: anytime you have the opportunity to express yourself in a 185 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: more meaningful way, I think it's always a good thing 186 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: to do, especially since I'm just a big fan of 187 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: you and what you represent and who you are. So 188 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: I always love to share my tips and anything that 189 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: I've learned along the way, because God knows, it is 190 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: not easy. Yeah, Like parenting is so hard, family dynamics, relationships, 191 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: it is so hard. 192 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 3: It's really interesting you say that, because when I was 193 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 3: speaking to your mum, she was saying that about you. 194 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 3: She was saying that you're the person that for anyone 195 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 3: in your family, no matter how busy you are, you'll 196 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 3: go completely out of your way. She was telling me 197 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 3: about a particular incident, but she was just saying that 198 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 3: you will just dive in book everyone on the flight, 199 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 3: get everyone there, get to that person, help them, support them, 200 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 3: and even when it's someone who's not directly connected to 201 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 3: you but is indirectly connected. And yeah, I'm sure you 202 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 3: know what I'm talking about, but the idea of just 203 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 3: you reached that far out. And when I was hearing 204 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 3: that about you from her, I was thinking that that 205 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 3: takes so much compassion and care from your side, And 206 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 3: those are not two words that on some of the 207 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 3: other platforms that people may care about you. But that's 208 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 3: what I'm getting talking to your mother about you. And 209 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 3: I wonder how have you. I feel family is the 210 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 3: cause for so much stress for people. It's the cause 211 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 3: for so much anxiety for people, And as you said, 212 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: it's hard, how have you continued to lean in to 213 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 3: compassion and care even when it's easier to compare and 214 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 3: criticize and complain. 215 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: Well with family, I mean I was always raised like, 216 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 1: no matter what, blood is thicker than water, there's no 217 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: other options. So we definitely go through our things as sisters. 218 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: There's no other options, Like we will work it out, 219 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: like we are family, we are sisters. We will figure 220 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: it out. And I think you just have to. I 221 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: think also more compassion comes with age and the more 222 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: things that you've been through and especially I think my 223 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: heart has opened up so much in that space, just 224 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: spending time even with people behind bars that I'm fighting 225 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: for and I might not have even had the slightest 226 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: idea of what someone's gone through or even understood taking 227 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: the time to listen to people more than maybe speaking 228 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: and making it about yourself, and my compassion has just 229 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: grown and my empathy has grown on another level. You 230 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: can't really judge people for their pace on when they 231 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: choose to really want to dig deep into their own 232 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: compassion and empathy and when people choose to grow and evolve, 233 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: But it's so nice to have people that support that 234 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: journey and grow with you, because once you realize that 235 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 1: this life really isn't about you and it's about helping 236 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: as many people as you can, all these doors open 237 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: up for you and your mind just opens up, and 238 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: it's a really great place to be when you feel 239 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: like you have enough would chase things for so long 240 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: and when you just feel content, it's such a good 241 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: place to be and it's such an like allows for 242 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: so much more compassion. 243 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 3: I think, and I want everyone to go back and 244 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 3: listen to that part. I feel like you just beautifully 245 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 3: defined compassion, And I'm going to try and reiterate what 246 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 3: you just said. Yeah, it was just it was so 247 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 3: well said, because I think people think about compassion as care, 248 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: and you just defined it by pace, and I think 249 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 3: when you're patient for the pace at which people grow 250 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 3: and evolve, that actually is compassion. 251 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: There's nothing worse when someone is like so woke and 252 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: they they're on this therapy journey and they expect you 253 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: to be right there with them. But it's a beautiful 254 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: thing to sit back and watch people make mistakes, learn 255 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: from their mistakes, grow and evolve, and just be there 256 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: to hold their hand and support them. I think that's 257 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: what anyone would want. I've seen so many people on 258 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: these like self help journeys that just aren't as happy, 259 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: you know, And I think you just have to like 260 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: sit back and do what works for you and move 261 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: at your own pace and understand that it's okay that 262 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: you're not at the same level as someone else. 263 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 264 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just such a like everything happens the 265 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: way it's supposed to do. I love just people in 266 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: their own journeys and I never try to be so 267 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: preachy or to think that someone has to be in 268 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: my place and at the level where I've evolved too. 269 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: It's great when your friends have the same kind of 270 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 1: epiphanies as you and you want the same things. But 271 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: then sometimes it's just not like that. 272 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, definitely. You brought two things to my mind. 273 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 3: One was what real love is like when you really 274 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 3: love your family. You don't love them because they change. Yeah, 275 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 3: your patient with them as they try to change. That's 276 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 3: what love is, because they may or may never get 277 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 3: to the other side. And the other thing that came 278 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 3: to mind is something my teachers would often tell me, 279 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 3: my Monk teaches. They would often repeat to me that 280 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 3: you're never trying to get someone to the next step 281 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 3: in your journey. You're trying to get them to the 282 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 3: next step in their journey. 283 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 1: Yeah. 284 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 3: And I think you're so right that when we're doing 285 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 3: self work, we are constantly preaching to other people about 286 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 3: the things we want to hear, yeah, and the things 287 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 3: we want to do. 288 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. And like self work can just be so different 289 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: for so many people, you know, Like my morning workouts, 290 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: I swear that's my self work. My drive in the 291 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: car every day, blasting whatever music I want to like, 292 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: that is my meditation that's my zone and that works 293 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: for me. You know, when I need help and I 294 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: need help figuring out different parenting things and different methods 295 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: that I can use, I will reach out and get 296 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: the help that I need when I need it, for sure. 297 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: But I also think there's just there's no like right 298 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: method of what works for everyone. You know, It's like 299 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: whatever works for you, you good for you. 300 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, absolutely absolutely. And I feel like when people 301 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 3: see you, and even even now you're talking, you have 302 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 3: so much trust in yourself or trust in your inner voice. 303 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 3: That doesn't mean I don't believe you're saying I always 304 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 3: get it right or this is the only way. What 305 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 3: you're actually saying is I've learned to trust my voice. 306 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 3: And I wonder was there a time when you didn't 307 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 3: trust that voice and or can you remember the first 308 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 3: time where you started to hear it? Like I remember, 309 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 3: the first time I've really started to hear my voice 310 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 3: deeply was probably when I was fourteen years old, and 311 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 3: that's when I could hear this voice inside of myself 312 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 3: that was like, Jay, this is who you are, this 313 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 3: is what you care about, this is what matters to you. 314 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 3: You don't need to be this or be that or 315 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 3: do it this way? And I remember I started listening 316 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 3: to it then and now that in a voice is 317 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: really loud. Yeah, it's always there. 318 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: But I wish i'd listened to my inner voice at fourteen. 319 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 3: Do you remember when you first started like, because when 320 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 3: I'm speaking, he's doing you Now you're just like, yeah, Like, 321 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 3: I'm very comfortable with people being themselves and I'm comfortable 322 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 3: with who I are, which is beautiful. But when did that? 323 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: I feel so many people want to live that way, 324 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 3: but that's the thing we all struggle with. 325 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 1: It definitely didn't come right away. You know. I was 326 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: a people pleaser and I would make decisions based off 327 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: of other people's happiness for so long, and I would say, honestly, 328 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: in the last few years, definitely at forty, you know, 329 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: I figured it out of just following my happiness, which 330 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: was really, I think an important place for me to 331 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: get to because I always put other people's happiness over 332 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: my own. And it doesn't mean you disregard other people's feelings, 333 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: and it doesn't mean you don't care and you don't 334 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: love them, but it is a great place to be 335 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: when you finally put yourself first. And I will say 336 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: that took a long time, and that was like relying 337 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: on other people for confidence in business decisions. And it's 338 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: great to have your team and to always like bounce 339 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: ideas and make sure that you're collectively picking the right 340 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: choice and work thing for you. But true confidence where 341 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: you feel you're making the right decisions, you know you 342 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: got it. You are thinking about yourself first, and not 343 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: just in a selfish way, but like in a protecting 344 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: your heart way. It feels really good and I might 345 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,719 Speaker 1: not have gotten there until I was literally forty. 346 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 3: Hey everyone, it's Jay Schetty and I'm thrilled to announce 347 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 3: my podcast tour.

I'm always really happy 359 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: with my surroundings. I don't need people to make me happy. 360 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: I'm not really ever searching for something. I'm really content. 361 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: My babies make me happy, my family, my life, you know, 362 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: experiences make me happy. But when you just look around 363 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,719 Speaker 1: and when there's like tension and stress that is just 364 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: not necessary from work, from relationships, from friendships, and you 365 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 1: just decide to be still and not try to please everyone, 366 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: it becomes just really clear, and you realize that you 367 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: just want to be happy and you want to share 368 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: this life, and that these experiences with your group of 369 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: people that you trust and you love and who are 370 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: super loyal. Like life is always going to be stressful 371 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: and you can't control half of it. But if you 372 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: can control what you put out and how you react 373 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: to all of life's stresses and your response to all 374 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: of that, and realizing that you could eliminate a lot 375 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: of those stresses with making yourself happy first and choosing yourself, 376 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: then you know you're on the right path. And once 377 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: I did that, and once I chose to choose myself 378 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 1: and be happy, so many opportunities just opened up, things 379 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: that I never thought in a million years would come 380 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: my way. It seemed like clear as day that the 381 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: universe was rewarding me for choosing myself and like elevating, 382 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: like getting to the next level in the video game, 383 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: like I had to get here, and I was always 384 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: like here, just in my growth process, and once I 385 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: chose myself, it was like, oh my god, the whole 386 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 1: the universe is opening up for you, and all these 387 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: opportunities are coming my way. And those were the confirmations 388 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: that I was heading in the right direction. I remember 389 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: saying that to one of my sisters. I was like, 390 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 1: oh my god, it is so crazy. I got this opportunity, 391 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: this opportunity, this is changing, this is changing, and it 392 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: seemed like all these amazing things started to happen in 393 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: my life. When I just took a second, was still realized, 394 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: wait a minute, I'm trying to make everyone happy. I'm 395 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: doing all this stuff for everyone else but myself. Let 396 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: me just like pull back a second focus on myself, 397 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 1: and then it seemed like everyone else was happier because 398 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 1: everything was just falling into place. And that was like 399 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: I saw it clear as day. And that would like 400 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: push me and motivate me to continue to just be 401 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: happy and do what I wanted to do instead of 402 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: what other people wanted to do. And that was like, 403 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 1: it was like a good feeling. It really like showed 404 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 1: me that I was making the right decisions. 405 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 3: I'm so happy for you. Thank you genuinely and dad. 406 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 1: A good place to be when you're genuinely a happy person. 407 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: You know. Complaints, Yeah, not taking things too seriously. Not 408 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: taking yourself too seriously is also a little key to happiness. 409 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the energy that gets lost in worrying 410 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 3: about something versus working towards fixing it or solving it. 411 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, can just worrying the worrying. If you worry about something, 412 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,959 Speaker 1: it's not going to change the outcome. Let's just come 413 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,479 Speaker 1: up with a solution. Like, let's say what the problem is. 414 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: Not complain. I'm not a complainer, So it's like, let's 415 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 1: just get to the solution, let's figure it out, and 416 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: let's move on. Absolutely nothing worse when you complain every 417 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: step of the way. 418 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's and it's natural and it's easy, but 419 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 3: it we all know it doesn't get you to where 420 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 3: you want to go. And I think that's that's a 421 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 3: big reason. What's the uh? I wonder with what you 422 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 3: were saying. One of the big things that comes out 423 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 3: as you're talking about family and people in your life 424 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 3: and you talked about your life is chat like, there's 425 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 3: this loyalty is such a big value for you, Yeah, 426 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 3: across your life, it seems. Yeah, what have you learned 427 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 3: about people that you wish you learned sooner? Was there 428 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 3: something that you started to learn and recognize patterns in 429 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 3: people and that has made you better now? But you 430 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 3: wish like if I learned this a couple of years 431 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 3: sooner than it could have saved me a lot of 432 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 3: distress and challenges that came up. 433 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: Don't take anything personally. I've been really blessed to have 434 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: really great, solid relationships. I have the same group of 435 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: best friends. We went to preschool together. We talk every 436 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,160 Speaker 1: single day. My best friend is my best friend since 437 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: the day I grow up, you know, when I was born. 438 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: The people I work with my family, my sisters, but 439 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: my best friend's sisters also, you know, and everyone I 440 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: trust one hundred percent. Everyone is so loyal one hundred percent. 441 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: You can come up to me and tell me something 442 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: about one of my friends. If someone were to say, oh, 443 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: this person said this about you and they're in my circle, 444 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 1: I would be absolutely not like I would trust that 445 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: one hundred percent. And I think that's so rare, or 446 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: what I've seen is so rare, And I just feel 447 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: so lucky to just love everyone around you. Trust everyone 448 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: around you. They trust you. My friends know they can 449 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: call me any hour. I'll be the first one to 450 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: pick up and help. All of my friends would drop 451 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: everything to help me in a situation. And to have 452 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,239 Speaker 1: that real support and love I think is everything in 453 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: life to have loyal, supportive people around you. And I 454 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: think you can also tell so much about a person 455 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 1: that has really long standing relationships that stability. When I 456 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 1: look to hire people, I look at their previous jobs 457 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: and how long they've had those relationships for and think 458 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: about it. If there's someone that's bouncing from job to job, 459 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 1: obviously there could be other situations that come into place, 460 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 1: but I value people that have these long standing relationships 461 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: with people, whether it's their employer or family, and that's 462 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: super important to me to have all my friends have 463 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: really important relationships in their life. 464 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 2: This episode is brought to you by eight Sleep. I 465 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 2: once had an old mattress that wasn't the best. It 466 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 2: was so uncomfortable, I swear I woke up feeling more 467 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 2: tired than when I went to bed. To make matters worse, 468 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,959 Speaker 2: it seemed to trap heat, making me feel hot and 469 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 2: stuffy at night. Did you know that temperature is one 470 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 2: of the most important factors in improving your sleep quality? 471 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: When you wake up in the middle of the night 472 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 2: or feel extra groggy in the morning, temperature is almost 473 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 2: always to blame. Why while traditional mattresses trap heat throughout 474 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: the night, science has shown that your body temperature actually 475 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 2: needs to drop in the early and middle part of 476 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 2: your sleep and rise in the morning so that you 477 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 2: can fall asleep fast and get more deeps. The pod 478 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 2: cover by eight Sleep fits on any bed like a 479 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 2: fitted sheet. 480 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 3: The pod cover will improve your sleep by automatically adjusting 481 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 3: the temperature on each side of the bed based on 482 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 3: you and your partner's individual needs. It can cool down 483 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 3: and warm up, and adjust based on the phases of 484 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 3: your sleep and the environment that you're in. I got 485 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 3: to share with you the amazing transformation that my eight 486 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 3: Sleep mattress is brought to my sleep game.

It's improved the quality of my sleep in 491 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 2: so many ways.

I 500 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 2: think that says a lot about you and the family, 501 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 2: because I wonder what it takes to hold on to 502 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 2: a relationship like that when you're on a rocket ship, right. 503 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 2: I feel like all of us deal with shifts in 504 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 2: our life, transitions and family and friends that we want 505 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 2: to hold on to. But it gets harder and harder, 506 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 2: especially when there's success, when there's envy, when there's competition, 507 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 2: and sometimes it's not because someone doesn't love you, it 508 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 2: doesn't care about you, it's so natural in the world 509 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,360 Speaker 2: we live in. And so what does it really take? 510 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 2: Because I think this will help a lot of people, 511 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 2: What does it actually take to hold on to someone 512 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: you love and continue with all the noise and all 513 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 2: the challenges and all the stress that comes with it. 514 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:49,880 Speaker 2: What does it actually take? 515 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: Because but theretose friends that you don't have to talk 516 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 1: to every day. I mean, thank god for group chats 517 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: where you can chime in and heart something really quick, 518 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: you know, but like your real best friends will all 519 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: so support you. And but it's it takes that mutual 520 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 1: respect because what my friends are doing, if they have 521 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: something that's important to them, it's just as important for 522 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: me to show up for them as it is for 523 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: them to show up for me. I might have a 524 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: more colorful life and a bigger event that I'm asking 525 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: them to show up to, but it doesn't mean that 526 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 1: theirs isn't just as important. So I think just having 527 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: that mutual respect, treating people with respect is just a given. 528 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: I truly think someone is such a solid person when 529 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: they have really grounded relationships. Grounded and love and relationships 530 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: can be different things. You know, Sometimes you have your 531 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: group of girlfriends that you love to go on vacation with. 532 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 1: And then sometimes you have you know, your other friends 533 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 1: that you work really well with. Every relationship can be different. 534 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: If you have just a mutual respect around the across 535 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,360 Speaker 1: the board, that's I think the number one thing. 536 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 3: It takes two. Yeah, it takes too. That's the point. 537 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 3: It's you're not going to be able to create or 538 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 3: falsely hold on to. It's someone who doesn't totally want 539 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 3: to give you that respect. Yeah, it's not going to happen. 540 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 541 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 3: Well, you talked about earlier about parenting and you brought 542 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 3: up a few times and I wonder. 543 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: How you You don't have kids, do you? 544 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 3: I'm not yet, not yet. 545 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 1: We'll have this conversation again when you do. 546 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 3: Absolutely, That's what I'm asking. That's I'm asking parenting questions. 547 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 3: What was your vision like for what you thought parenting 548 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 3: was going to be like versus what it actually is. 549 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: Everyone says the days are long and the years are short, 550 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: and that couldn't be like a more true statement. So, 551 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 1: like when you're in it, I mean, especially when they're 552 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: babies and you're feeding and your there's madness going on. 553 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: It's like full madness. It's the best chaos though, Like 554 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: my mornings, you have no idea what's going on. It's 555 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: like I always have to do one of my daughter's 556 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: hair and it has to be perfect and it has 557 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: to be a certain way, and then this one needs 558 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: me to put his shoes on, and that they all 559 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: need you, and they all it's like full crazy madness, 560 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: cooking running around like it's it's wild. That's why I 561 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: need my workout in the morning, just to like prepare 562 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: for the two hours of craziness. I'd say parenting is 563 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: the thing that has taught me the most about myself. 564 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: It has been the most challenging thing. There are nights 565 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: I cry myself to sleep, like what just happened? You know, 566 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 1: with all the moods and the personalities, and sometimes they're 567 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: fighting and there's no one there, Like it's me to 568 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: play good cop and bad cops. So like that is 569 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: definitely a challenge when you know something I'm working on 570 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: is being a little bit firmer. You know, there's nothing 571 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: that can prepare you anyone. Any person that says, oh 572 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: we're waiting to have x amount of money in the bank, 573 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: Oh we're waiting to have a home before we have kids. Oh, 574 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: I'm waiting for this job to come in before we 575 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 1: have kids. I don't care how long you wait, I 576 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: don't care what you're waiting for. You are never prepared, 577 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: but will figure it out and it will make you 578 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: so proud of yourself that you figured it out and 579 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: that you got through the day. And sometimes it's nights 580 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 1: where it's just we are going hour by hour to 581 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: see if we're going to survive night by night. If 582 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: a tantrum comes in, oh my god, your life is 583 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: completely upside down. But it teaches you so much more 584 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: about yourself than I think anyone any parent could have 585 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: ever anticipated. I mean, there is nights when you don't 586 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: wash your hair for days as a mom, and you 587 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: have sped up all over you and you're wearing the 588 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: same pajamas you know, and there's just nothing that can 589 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: prepare you for this experience. It is the most challenging 590 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: rewarding job on this planet. 591 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 3: When was a moment when you were looking into your babies' 592 00:30:58,160 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: faces and. 593 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: That I want to run away, I need to hide 594 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: for a night every night. I'm just kidding. 595 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 3: No, yeah, no, thank you. I mean it's honest. I 596 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,479 Speaker 3: think there's a little bit of truth in that feeling 597 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 3: that a lot of parents have. What's the hardest when 598 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 3: you've been looking when you look into their faces and 599 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 3: you had one of these moments where you were learning 600 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 3: these lessons, What was the hardest lesson you had to 601 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 3: learn about yourself that made you go, WHOA, I didn't 602 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 3: I didn't see that before. If it wasn't for that kid, 603 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 3: I wouldn't have seen that. 604 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it happens all the time. I always think everything 605 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: in life comes our way to really teach us something. 606 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 1: And it's a really hard task when you have four 607 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: kids and you know they all want to be put 608 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: to bed at the same time by the same person, 609 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: and they all want to do it individually and have 610 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: that experience, and no one wants to wait. And I'm 611 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: locked in a room with kids banging outside of the 612 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: door because they want me to put them to bed, 613 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I can't cut myself in four pieces. 614 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to schedule this out. And we're 615 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: coming up with the schedule and none of them want 616 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: to listen to the schedule, and then they all start crying. 617 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: And that's like a typical night, you know, And so 618 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: I like sit them outside of my one daughter's door, 619 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: and I'm like, i'll pick you up next. We're doing 620 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: this for fifteen minutes and they can't be patient and 621 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: they're banging on the door. Come on, it's been five minutes. 622 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: You know. It's like those nights are every single night, 623 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: big school projects, big things that are happening, and they 624 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: don't understand that I work, or I have a school 625 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: schedule too, or you know, stuff kids will never understand. 626 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: So I think it's just those nights when you can't 627 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,719 Speaker 1: divide yourself and you have to just work with what 628 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: we have and try to bribe two of them to 629 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: get put to bed at the same time. You know, 630 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: I think unless you're a pal, like so much respect 631 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 1: to parents, so much respect to people also that aren't parents, 632 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: that want to live their free life enjoy it while 633 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: you can't. I was at Easter on Palm Springs and 634 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 1: I looked at my mom's house and she had her 635 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: table set for all of her kids, all of her grandkids, 636 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: and we're all staying in her house. And I was like, 637 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: it's a forever thing. It's not like, hey, okay, you're 638 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: eighteen and you're on your own. It's a foreverthing. And 639 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: we're in our forties and we're still coming at her 640 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: and fighting and asking my mom to resolve everything. And 641 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: I look at her and I'm like, how did you 642 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: do it? I personally can't wait for my kids to 643 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: get a little bit older. Everyone is so afraid of 644 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: the teenage phase. I'm so excited for it. Play this 645 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,719 Speaker 1: back for me when they're teenagers all probably, But I 646 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: see the relationship I have with my mom, and I 647 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 1: knew the relationship I had with my dad, and how 648 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: comfortable we were talking to them about all of our 649 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: problems and all of our friends stuff and all of 650 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: the drama and all of the high school stuff, and 651 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: even the stuff I talk to my mom about now, 652 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: and how open I am about life and relationships and 653 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 1: how close we are. Even if we didn't get it 654 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: as a kid, I can look at her now and say, 655 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: I get it as a mom now as an adult. Now, 656 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: I know why you made those decisions. And I love 657 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: having that relationship. And that is why I wanted to 658 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: have four kids. I saw my mom, you know, and 659 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 1: my dad had four together before she had my two 660 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: little sisters, and I loved the big family. And I 661 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,360 Speaker 1: always knew I wanted to have four kids, and I 662 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: just love so much our relationship with her and my grandma, 663 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,760 Speaker 1: and I just can't wait to have that with my kids. 664 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: I can't wait till they're old enough to understand so 665 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: much that I can never explain to them now that 666 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: they'll get one day and we can laugh about it. 667 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 3: That's so beautiful. Yeah, you reminded me of a beautiful 668 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 3: old saying that says, the day you realize your parents 669 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 3: were right, your kids are telling you that you're wrong. 670 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 1: So true. 671 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's like that idea of just your when 672 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 3: you're a little boy, you like adore your mom, at 673 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 3: least I did them until like thirteen years old. Then 674 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 3: you've become a teenager and you think you're too cool 675 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 3: for your mom. 676 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 677 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 3: And then in my twelies back, Yeah, they have. 678 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: Like contracts with my sons. I'm like, you're never going 679 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 1: to leave me. We always have to be besties. You're 680 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: never going to be too cool for me, And they 681 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: always say yes, Yeah. I'm like, you can live with 682 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,399 Speaker 1: me in your twenties, your thirties, never move out. 683 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 3: They said, Okay, they've signed the contract. Yeah, yeah, and 684 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 3: they have no idea. 685 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: I'll preach it. Yeah, it'll be okay. 686 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, you won't see them. 687 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 688 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 3: But the I wonder how in your position, like you know, 689 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,399 Speaker 3: what you just described is what so many people go through, 690 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 3: and like you said, it's so hard for them to 691 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 3: experience that. But when you're explaining things like the paparazzi, 692 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 3: like you're saying that when you're in Japan, like you 693 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 3: didn't have that experience and that was so nice for 694 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 3: the kids, Like how do you walk them through the 695 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 3: nuances of the life that you lead. And I'm guessing 696 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 3: a lot of their friends also have similar lives, but 697 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,720 Speaker 3: I'm sure they have some friends who don't have parents 698 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 3: like yourselves, And so how do you help them reconcile? 699 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 3: What are the kind of things that you talk about 700 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 3: with them or what can they understand at this age 701 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 3: and what are you like, Well, that's just going to 702 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 3: have to wait. 703 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: I'll talk to my kids about anything they want to 704 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: ask me about. I am so open and honest with 705 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 1: my kids. I think that's the only way to be 706 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 1: And it could be things that they might not understand, 707 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: and I'll wait to find the appropriate time to talk 708 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: about it. I think they grew up seeing the cameras, 709 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: and they grew up seeing that even as babies, you know, 710 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: we'd walk out and there'd be paparazzi. So it's not 711 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 1: really something that they acknowledge a lot. But you know, 712 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: my daughter's really vocal. She'll tell them when she doesn't 713 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 1: want them around and to leave her alone and to stop. 714 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: And I love that they use their little voices. But 715 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: they also have such a normal life and such a 716 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: different life away from all of that too, And that's 717 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: why I love that my sisters and I all had 718 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: babies at the same time, so they can be with 719 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 1: each other and have these experiences together. 720 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 3: Absolutely, when i'm you know, there's all the words that 721 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 3: come out from you, like togetherness, loyalty. It's incredible to 722 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 3: see it in family. But I think what you've then done, 723 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 3: which when I saw you do this, it really moved 724 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 3: me when I saw you kind of move into that 725 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 3: direction of justice reform and using your voice and training 726 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 3: to be a lawyer to make these changes in the 727 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 3: world out there, because I find that, you know, there's 728 00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 3: a natural sense of survival as a family, but then 729 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,320 Speaker 3: when you start taking into account the survival of others, 730 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,439 Speaker 3: there's an extension of love and you know what goes 731 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 3: out to the world. And yeah, I think it was 732 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 3: really special to see that this podcast is called on 733 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 3: Purpose for a reason, because I think everyone's searching for 734 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 3: their purpose. Would you say that that was a expression 735 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 3: of purpose or absolutely? 736 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's one of those moments, like 737 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 1: by chance, I happened to be looking on social media 738 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 1: and seeing a case that I just didn't understand. And 739 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 1: I'm always a really curious person, so I'll never let 740 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: something go if it's weighing on my heart to not 741 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: at least try to figure out how it happened. I've 742 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 1: always been really interested in crime stuff and solving things 743 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: and figuring things out. So when I saw a case 744 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 1: of a woman that just didn't make sense to me, 745 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: I was really curious, and I sent this little video 746 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: that popped up on my Twitter to attorneys that I 747 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:28,200 Speaker 1: knew really well that could answer questions for me. And 748 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 1: then when it seemed like I couldn't just sit there 749 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: it was really weighing on my heart when I felt 750 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: like it was so unfair. I didn't know that there 751 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 1: was like thousands of cases that were so unfair. I 752 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 1: just thought, oh wow, like I have to help this person. 753 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: And then when I was successful in doing that on 754 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: my journey, I realized, like, wait, there's so many more 755 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: people like this, like I can't not do something. And 756 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: I think that that also goes with whatever's meant to 757 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: come to you at your own pace, for your own 758 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 1: learning levels, is what's meant to be. Because that came 759 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,879 Speaker 1: to me, I wasn't like searching for that, and that 760 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 1: changed my life and it changed who I am. I 761 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: just can't sit around and see this happen to other 762 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 1: people that aren't deserving of their freedom. I think just 763 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: everyone's on their own path and things will come to 764 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: you when you need to be like elevated to that 765 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: growth level. And I'm really grateful for those experiences because 766 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:32,280 Speaker 1: I definitely think that that's my purpose. 767 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 3: What internal changes did you see in yourself that maybe 768 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 3: you didn't see before when you started doing this work, 769 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 3: Like what did you have to grapple with internally? Was 770 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 3: there anything that you had to break through inside? Yeah? 771 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 3: What would those things? 772 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: I would say? I always felt like I was a 773 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: compassionate person and a caring person, and I always cared 774 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: about people's feelings, but my level of empathy was at 775 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 1: a completely different level. When I started, I might have 776 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 1: been way more judgmental, and I would think that someone 777 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: that was behind bars, especially for a really lengthy or 778 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 1: a serious crime, that they probably were absolutely guilty. I 779 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 1: had no compassion. I was just really judgmental. And then 780 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 1: when I started to hear about these cases and people's 781 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 1: backstories and their histories and realized that so many people 782 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:31,320 Speaker 1: really didn't have the opportunities to be better and didn't 783 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: know better, it really changed my whole life, and like, 784 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 1: my level of empathy is just so different than what 785 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 1: it was years ago. And I think that's why I 786 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 1: fight so hard for people to get second chances, Because 787 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: people make really bad choices and really bad mistakes, some 788 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 1: way way worse than other people. But if you're never 789 00:40:54,719 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 1: given the chance to change, that's really sad, especially if 790 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 1: you make a really bad decision as a teenager and 791 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: then you're in your forties and you're given no shot 792 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: to change when you really already maybe have so much. 793 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: It was really important to me to express that and 794 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 1: help people that have made those changes. 795 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 3: And I love how I'm assuming that when you do 796 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 3: something like that in the outside space, it kind of 797 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 3: applies to your whole life, where all of a sudden, 798 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,439 Speaker 3: you're so right that I think we all not even 799 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,359 Speaker 3: people behind bars. I think we all judge people all 800 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 3: the time. Yeah, and when you're almost doing it in 801 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 3: such an extreme way and raising your empathy in such 802 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 3: an extreme environment, you can now extend that and express 803 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 3: that to so many more people. Yeah, because you've had 804 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 3: to do it in a way where you were like, oh, 805 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 3: definitely that person deserves it. Yeah, and all of a 806 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 3: sudden you start realizing maybe they didn't deserve that. Yeah, 807 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 3: So maybe we don't deserve this. I think, you know, 808 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 3: but in. 809 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: All levels of life of judgment. I used to judge 810 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: people and like their relationships and how people lived their lives, 811 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 1: and now whatever makes you happy? Why should we judge? 812 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: Who were we to say how people should live their lives? 813 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 1: My judgment is just I don't know if it comes 814 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 1: with age or experience or just going through so many things, 815 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:18,359 Speaker 1: but just be happy, you know. Isn't that what life 816 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: is about? Experiences making people feel heard and seen and appreciated, 817 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: and just having gratitude for the things in life that 818 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 1: we're so blessed to have and work for and for. 819 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: Surrounded by the people we love we are. That's real success. 820 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I agree, And I feel that a 821 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 3: lot of people start getting better at that with the 822 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 3: judgment outside. But one of the things that people struggle 823 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 3: to deal with the most is the judgment in their head. 824 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 3: And I wonder, do you find that you ever catch 825 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 3: yourself judging yourself and being hard on yourself and being 826 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 3: heavy and harsh on yourself. You've been able to give 827 00:42:58,760 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 3: that up. 828 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 1: I'll be like competitive with myself. I think I'm a 829 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:07,720 Speaker 1: really competitive person, but I'm pretty I'm pretty easy on myself. 830 00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:08,720 Speaker 3: Wow, that's incredible. 831 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,840 Speaker 1: I was always like, really calm, really easy going. 832 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 3: That's a real achievement. Yeah, and I'm sure you see 833 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 3: people judging themselves all the time. 834 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:16,959 Speaker 1: Yeah. 835 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 3: I was grabbing some coffees for my team a couple 836 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 3: of months back or something, and I remember like I 837 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 3: was paying the cashier and she gave me the change 838 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 3: and I was grabbing the change of walking off, and 839 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 3: she was like, wait, wait, wait, I'm so stupid. I'm 840 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 3: so stupid. I got the change wrong. And I was 841 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 3: like I didn't even notice. And I looked and I 842 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,720 Speaker 3: was like, oh okay, Like I was like, you're not stupid, 843 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,920 Speaker 3: like easy mistaken. You can see the look on her 844 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,240 Speaker 3: face like she was judging herself so harshly for something 845 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 3: so small. And I guess when you see people judge themselves, 846 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 3: then how do you how do you respond to that 847 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 3: or how do you support them? 848 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: Honestly, I really haven't experienced that much. 849 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 3: That's fantastic. Yeah, that's amazing, And I love hearing that 850 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 3: because I think it is so true that you can 851 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 3: curate and create a community around you that has similar values. Yeah, 852 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 3: and then almost you don't even I. 853 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: See a lot of like determination and a lot of 854 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 1: like creativity, a lot of hard work. Like if I 855 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 1: were to go on vacation with my girlfriends, we'd all 856 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 1: be getting up probably at six am, all want to 857 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: go on a workout. I don't think there's that one 858 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: girl that would be like, I'm sleeping till ten and 859 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm not working out, you know. So I think that 860 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 1: obviously everyone around you is different and has different personalities. 861 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 1: But I think a lot of my core friends are 862 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 1: really like minded. 863 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and sometimes that positive, positive peer pressure can be 864 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,440 Speaker 3: really healthy too, Like, yeah, even if you have that 865 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 3: one friend who's struggling, as soon as you're added to 866 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,840 Speaker 3: that group totally. You see the maleovey. I've seen that 867 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 3: with so many of my friends that totally. Even if 868 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 3: there's one person who's struggling with something, as soon as 869 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 3: they're in that pack, yeah, all of a sudden you 870 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 3: start to see them break through their ceiling. Yeah, and 871 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 3: it changes for them. 872 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:03,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think something that I've learned maybe the hard way, 873 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: because I feel like I'm at a really good place 874 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 1: now where the people in my life I feel really solid. 875 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,360 Speaker 1: I think this is the first time in my life. 876 00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:14,880 Speaker 1: Obviously I've had really long relationships with my girlfriends and 877 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:19,359 Speaker 1: friends since elementary school. But something I learned is that 878 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 1: you cannot help people that don't want the help and 879 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 1: don't You can't force your beliefs and project that on 880 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:34,319 Speaker 1: someone that thinks something totally different. And it's okay to 881 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:36,439 Speaker 1: have those different views. It's why the world goes round, 882 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,399 Speaker 1: you know. But if you don't align in the same 883 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 1: values and morals and things at your core, then it's 884 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 1: okay to realize that this life is so short and 885 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: you should go and find the people that do align 886 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 1: with what you really believe in. And I think sometimes 887 00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 1: there's so much going on that you can be blinded 888 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: by so many other things that if you don't stop 889 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 1: and think about what someone's true values and morals are 890 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,959 Speaker 1: and how they want to live their life, so much 891 00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 1: other things are going on. So I don't blame people 892 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 1: that don't really stop and think about those things. I mean, 893 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 1: those are some of the lessons that I would teach 894 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 1: my kids when they're looking for friends and partners and relationships. Yeah, 895 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 1: you can't really force things upon other people. You can't 896 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,280 Speaker 1: expect them to be where you're at at your level. 897 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:34,719 Speaker 1: And sometimes that could really coexist really well, but then 898 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 1: sometimes it really can't. You have to let go of 899 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 1: the idea of molding people into what you want. Think 900 00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:44,879 Speaker 1: about if there's something about yourself that you really want 901 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 1: to change, the expectations of going into something and thinking 902 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 1: you're going to get a different result, or thinking you 903 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 1: have the power to change someone is so selfish and 904 00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: so crazy, and everyone does it and everyone has to 905 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: learn on their own. And that's something that I've always 906 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: like sat back, helped friends, given them advice, but never 907 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:11,239 Speaker 1: really pushed because even if I were to say, hey, 908 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 1: don't walk down that path, trust me, I've been there. 909 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 1: You don't want to go there and they say okay, 910 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:19,839 Speaker 1: and they follow you and they go on a different path. 911 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 1: They'll never learn that lesson. They have no clue what 912 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. You know, I could say parenting stuff 913 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 1: to you all day long, with all due respect, you 914 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 1: have no clue until you've been through it. I welcome 915 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,040 Speaker 1: people's journeys and their lessons, and I'll always be there 916 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 1: to the people that I love to help them through that. 917 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 1: But they got to go through that in order to 918 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 1: grow on their own. 919 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 3: What's the biggest lesson you learned from your mom that 920 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 3: you try to pass on to the kids. 921 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:49,320 Speaker 1: I think just how she makes people feel really heard 922 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,840 Speaker 1: and welcomed. She really is the most warm, welcoming person, 923 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,319 Speaker 1: and it's just like her overall. It seems superficial, but 924 00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: it's not like her party planning skills. It's not even that. 925 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 1: It's just the welcomingness of I don't even know if 926 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,839 Speaker 1: these are words I'm saying, but like just her ability 927 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 1: to be so warm and to make everyone feel like 928 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 1: they were invited here. I'm going to create this special 929 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 1: Easter dinner with like the things on the table, you 930 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 1: know that she had when we were growing up at 931 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: my dad's house, Like she just has all this like 932 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 1: really special nostalgic stuff around all the time and always 933 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,440 Speaker 1: tries to make everyone feel so special, but with like 934 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: a gathering so that everyone feels comfortable and can hang around. 935 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,760 Speaker 1: Like she just loves people in her space and loves 936 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: to create these memories. And I think that we all 937 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: got that from her, and we will all if I 938 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 1: can just pass that on to my kids, just the 939 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 1: experiences that we have as a family, whether we're just 940 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 1: sitting in our pajamas and hanging out, we make the 941 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: time to be together. And I hope that my kids 942 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,759 Speaker 1: want to make the time to be together when they 943 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:05,799 Speaker 1: grow up, with their cousins and their aunts and just 944 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:06,520 Speaker 1: the whole family. 945 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 3: I'm sure they will. Yeah, I think, yeah, I think 946 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 3: I think you've managed to hold onto it in your 947 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 3: entire generation, and so yeah, they see that. I think 948 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 3: kids mirror so much of what they see around them. 949 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 3: And I remember when I met my wife, her grandma 950 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 3: is her favorite human on the planet. And it's really 951 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 3: interesting how when someone you love you know who their 952 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 3: favorite human is, you automatically start loving them. And I 953 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 3: wasn't really close to my grandparents, but I'm closer to 954 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 3: Rady's grandparents like grandmother, and I am to my own 955 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 3: grandparents because you see your love for the person that 956 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 3: you love, and so I think when your kids see 957 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 3: the love that you have for your sisters and your 958 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 3: cousins and your aunts and uncles. 959 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 1: And now if only all my kids can love their siblings, 960 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 1: that would be amazing. They're in a fighting phase. 961 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and you guys went through that phase. 962 00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, still going on, never ending. 963 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 3: It's never going to stop. Kim. I feel like you 964 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 3: travel so much, you have so many businesses. You're now 965 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 3: going to be on a TV show, like another TV show. 966 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,680 Speaker 3: I mean, You've got so much things happening in your life, 967 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,799 Speaker 3: and I'm sure there's moments where whether the kids say 968 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 3: something or don't. I know a lot of people in 969 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 3: my life feel a lot of mom guilt. Yeah, and 970 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,360 Speaker 3: moms carry it with them. Have you experienced that with 971 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 3: your friends your family? 972 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:27,200 Speaker 1: Absolutely? Mom guilt is probably the hardest thing. I think 973 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: that you have to also separate though, and understand that 974 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 1: you need your own bit of sanity. So you have 975 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,760 Speaker 1: to do what makes you happy. You have to working. 976 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 1: For me, I love working, so that makes me happy. 977 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,400 Speaker 1: Anytime I think something's really hard, I dive into work 978 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 1: and or if there's challenges, like I love to dive 979 00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:50,319 Speaker 1: into my work and that's like a bit of my 980 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 1: therapy and my routine to keep me going. But I think, 981 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 1: you know, I have chats with my girlfriends when our 982 00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 1: kids are having tantrums and there could be things going 983 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 1: on that we don't even know about, and you feel 984 00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 1: like you're the worst mom if something's going on and 985 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,799 Speaker 1: you can't fix it, you have no idea how to 986 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:16,280 Speaker 1: change it. Your kids are fighting, whatever it is, and 987 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: my friends and I will text each other and be 988 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: like in tears, literally locking ourselves in the room, like 989 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,759 Speaker 1: away from a kid having a tantrum. When that's not 990 00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,200 Speaker 1: what you should do. You should go and lean into them. 991 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:32,800 Speaker 1: But sometimes it's so overwhelming. That was probably the only 992 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:36,279 Speaker 1: time I'd be hard on myself. Is am I a 993 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,879 Speaker 1: good mom? I try to do everything? And I think 994 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,399 Speaker 1: how to balance work with that is when you're home 995 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,399 Speaker 1: being really present. Kids all they want is time. They 996 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,760 Speaker 1: just want your time. You can give them all these amazing, 997 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 1: big experiences and they'll remember them and they're great, but 998 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:57,879 Speaker 1: they'll always remember you being present. And I think that's 999 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 1: just the most important thing in all of your life relationships. 1000 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:03,759 Speaker 1: Think about what a kid wants. A kid just wants 1001 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 1: your time, so why wouldn't everyone else. You have to 1002 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 1: kind of treat everyone like that if you want these 1003 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 1: like meaningful relationships in your life, and you have to 1004 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 1: be present. And it's okay to feel like you are 1005 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 1: not one hundred percent at being the best mom. I 1006 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 1: say this all the time. There's no manual. They do 1007 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 1: not come with a manual. Everyone's doing the best that 1008 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 1: they can. And I just feel so lucky that I 1009 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 1: have a good group of girlfriends and all of our 1010 00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:41,120 Speaker 1: kids are experiencing different things from I mean, imagine all 1011 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 1: the things that they divorce, everything that they have to 1012 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 1: go through. We're okay. They will be okay, and they 1013 00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,239 Speaker 1: will feel the love and support and that's all you 1014 00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:52,920 Speaker 1: can do. It'll be okay. 1015 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 3: And I'm sure that's hard for you because you were 1016 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 3: saying that you're so competitive with yourself if you want 1017 00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 3: to be the best to everything. Yeah, but I feel 1018 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 3: like being the best mom must be the hardest, hardest 1019 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 3: thing to ever live up to. 1020 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and I'm very confident. So every year I write 1021 00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:11,399 Speaker 1: each one of my kids about a four or five 1022 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 1: page letter about on their birthday, about what the year 1023 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 1: was like, who their friends are, silly words, they're saying, 1024 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 1: their favorite foods, all the silly things that they do, 1025 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,160 Speaker 1: and a little journey of what the year is like. 1026 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,319 Speaker 1: And it's so fun to see from the first year 1027 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 1: now you know, one of them almost ten years old, 1028 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 1: and just to I know that they'll appreciate this. I 1029 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:39,359 Speaker 1: know that they'll appreciate everything that they might have thought 1030 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 1: I was being a little harsh on me protecting them. 1031 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,439 Speaker 1: I know that they'll they'll get it because I got 1032 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 1: it with my mom, and I know they'll get it 1033 00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 1: with me. 1034 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:50,279 Speaker 3: You've reminded me of something beautiful that I want to 1035 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 3: share that. So, my mom and dad were birthda immigrants 1036 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 3: in London, which is where I was born and raised, 1037 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,600 Speaker 3: and both my parents worked ever since I was a kid, 1038 00:53:57,840 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 3: and so i'd get dropped to daycare, get picked up 1039 00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 3: in the year. But what I remember is something you said. 1040 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:04,880 Speaker 3: My mom would come and pick me up, and I 1041 00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:07,400 Speaker 3: still remembered the look on her face when she'd pick 1042 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,920 Speaker 3: me up. She'd had this big smile, she'd give me 1043 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 3: the biggest hug, she'd take me home and we'd sit 1044 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 3: down together while she was cooking, and we'd just talk 1045 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 3: to each other. And it's almost like I never had 1046 00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:19,160 Speaker 3: a lot of time with my parents growing up, but 1047 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,840 Speaker 3: I felt so much presence. And I honestly believe today 1048 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 3: that I have so much love to give because my 1049 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:28,240 Speaker 3: mom infused me with love, Like my mom's just like, yeah, 1050 00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:30,920 Speaker 3: you know, bathe me in so much love totally that 1051 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:34,120 Speaker 3: it's so easy for me to be loving because I've 1052 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 3: always had infinite amounts of it from my moum the best. 1053 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I couldn't imagine. I love on my kids so hard. 1054 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,440 Speaker 1: They are so annoyed with me, and I love it. 1055 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:48,399 Speaker 3: What I find genuinely inspiring about you and the way 1056 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 3: you think and focus is that you want to be 1057 00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:53,880 Speaker 3: this incredible mom, but you also want to show the 1058 00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:59,399 Speaker 3: kids what a passionate, purpose driven person looks like. Yeah, 1059 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,919 Speaker 3: and I think, forget that that's also parenting, Like I'm 1060 00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:04,879 Speaker 3: not a parent, but I can honestly say it that 1061 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,920 Speaker 3: when I saw my mom working late at night and 1062 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:10,719 Speaker 3: waking up early in the morning, I look back at 1063 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,720 Speaker 3: my mom and I think my mom is a superwoman. Yeah, 1064 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:15,800 Speaker 3: And I look back at that as inspirat. 1065 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:16,640 Speaker 1: My kids think that on me. 1066 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,080 Speaker 3: One day, they will. They will because they'll see that. 1067 00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:20,839 Speaker 3: And I think same with my dad. Like I saw 1068 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 3: my dad and how much he had to work, Yeah, 1069 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 3: and there was something powerful about that. 1070 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 1: I think. I always like to show them, Like I 1071 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 1: drop my kids off at school and then I have 1072 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 1: two or three hours of law school, so I gotta go. 1073 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 1: I'm on time because I have my school and they 1074 00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:37,880 Speaker 1: have been on the journey with me. They saw me 1075 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 1: take the bar exam. They saw me open my results 1076 00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:44,400 Speaker 1: and not pass multiple times. They saw me open up 1077 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 1: the results and pass and I was crying and they 1078 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,879 Speaker 1: felt my hard work and it paid off. I want 1079 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 1: to show them that finding a passion and working, to me, 1080 00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: is something I love to do and there's so much 1081 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 1: joy in that for me, and I want them to 1082 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 1: feel that positive experience, and I encourage that from them, 1083 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,200 Speaker 1: Like I want to just show them as many positive 1084 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: experiences as I can and show them that you know, 1085 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 1: you can work hard and you can love it. And 1086 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: I just try to live my life and be a 1087 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: good example for them. 1088 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:22,879 Speaker 3: I think it comes through and I do believe that, 1089 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 3: Like when I look back at my parents, all I 1090 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,920 Speaker 3: can do is appreciate my mom. All I can do. 1091 00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:30,680 Speaker 1: I hope they do. Sometimes they tell me I'm the 1092 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 1: meanest mom in the world because I won't buy them 1093 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:36,680 Speaker 1: roadblocks every day. You know. It's like I'm like, it's okay, 1094 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 1: I could be the meanest mom in the world. Yeah, 1095 00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:39,279 Speaker 1: you know. 1096 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:41,440 Speaker 3: I think that's what moms do. Moms are willing to 1097 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 3: be anything that kids need them to be, even if 1098 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,319 Speaker 3: it's that for shal period of time. Yeah, Kim, you've 1099 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,040 Speaker 3: been so gracious and kind with your time today. We 1100 00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 3: end every On Purpose episode with a final five. The 1101 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 3: first question is what is the best advice you've ever 1102 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:56,439 Speaker 3: received or heard? 1103 00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:01,239 Speaker 1: Something that I've learned about time is just that we 1104 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 1: never have enough of time, So really be present and 1105 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:10,520 Speaker 1: make the most of your relationships because we're not here 1106 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 1: very long and we have one life. 1107 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:15,759 Speaker 3: Was there a moment that made you realize that or 1108 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 3: something that happened that made you realize that. 1109 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I think when you lose a parent, you're 1110 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:24,680 Speaker 1: always really mindful of time, And my mom talks about 1111 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: it all the time. I think she's like probably the 1112 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 1: one thing in life she's scared about, you know, and 1113 00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 1: keeps her up at night sometimes, so just making sure 1114 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:39,920 Speaker 1: that you make the most of everything because it'll go 1115 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 1: by so fast. 1116 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 3: Second question, what is the worst life advice you've ever 1117 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:46,520 Speaker 3: received or heard? 1118 00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:51,800 Speaker 1: I think maybe the worst advice could be almost too 1119 00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 1: much advice or too many opinions. If you really trust 1120 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 1: your gut and you do what you want to do, 1121 00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:01,720 Speaker 1: and if you're in your bobble and when the world 1122 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,720 Speaker 1: gets to that little piece of your bubble, and there 1123 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 1: can be so many opinions, I think sometimes all of 1124 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 1: the conflicting advice can just be bad advice that even 1125 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:15,440 Speaker 1: if you're supposed to make your mistake and maybe do 1126 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 1: what you want to do with any bad piece of advice, 1127 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:22,480 Speaker 1: that's still a part of your journey. So sometimes just 1128 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:24,880 Speaker 1: do what you want to do and not take in 1129 00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 1: all of the advice is really healthy. 1130 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 3: I think that's great, And don't ask for in the 1131 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 3: first place. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We all have that one 1132 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 3: friend who totally messages like twenty five people with the 1133 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:39,280 Speaker 3: same question. Totally yeah, definitely good answer, all right. Question 1134 00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:43,440 Speaker 3: number three. If tomorrow not wishing this, no intentions, no 1135 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 3: energy towards this, but if tomorrow you had to restart, 1136 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:49,440 Speaker 3: what would you do if tomorrow everything went away and 1137 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 3: you had to restart, what would you do business wise? 1138 00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:52,200 Speaker 2: Like? 1139 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:53,600 Speaker 3: Would that shift? 1140 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:58,440 Speaker 1: I think I would probably be a lawyer and just 1141 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 1: focus on that and go to law school and focus 1142 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:06,080 Speaker 1: on being an attorney full time, because I just think 1143 00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 1: the feeling of being able to help people is really 1144 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 1: powerful and necessary, and I would just focus on that. 1145 00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:20,840 Speaker 3: That's such a hartful answer. I love that. That's beautiful. 1146 00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 3: I'm glad I asked you. Yeah, I just feel like 1147 00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:26,400 Speaker 3: it's really interesting. I was having a conversation last night 1148 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 3: with with the mutual friends of ours Scooter Braun and Oh. 1149 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 3: We were together last night and we were talking about 1150 00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 3: this idea about how we often think that our experiences 1151 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,120 Speaker 3: make us who we are, or is it that you 1152 00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:40,160 Speaker 3: are just going to be who you are anyway because 1153 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 3: that's who you were meant to be. 1154 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:43,760 Speaker 1: I think it's both. Yeah, think about it. You can 1155 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 1: be the most talented person, but if you don't have 1156 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:51,680 Speaker 1: that determination and drive, then what will become of it? 1157 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's not just going to magically happen because 1158 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 1: you're talented, of course, So I think so much of 1159 00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:01,680 Speaker 1: it is the effort what you do with that and 1160 01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,160 Speaker 1: figuring that out and who you are and what you 1161 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 1: want to put out in the world. 1162 01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 3: I guess my point is that I think you have 1163 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 3: that energy of wanting to be the best, of wanting 1164 01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 3: to do things really well, of wanting to do things 1165 01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 3: with that quality, and whatever you ended up doing with it, yeah, 1166 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:19,480 Speaker 3: it would have been that and it is that you're doing. 1167 01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 1: You have to no matter even if this isn't the 1168 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:25,480 Speaker 1: job that you want, no matter what it is that 1169 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 1: you're doing, you have to be full of your best. 1170 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,480 Speaker 1: You have to put in two hundred percent. You have 1171 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 1: no idea who's paying attention. You're at that place exactly 1172 01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 1: what where you're supposed to be at that time. There's 1173 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 1: nothing worse than someone that doesn't want to give it. 1174 01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,760 Speaker 1: They're all no matter what it is, and it could be. 1175 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:48,360 Speaker 1: That's like, you know, business advice that I heard that 1176 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 1: always stuck with me and always was even when I 1177 01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 1: was working at a clothing store. I was so happy 1178 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 1: to be there organizing. I did my yet I did 1179 01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:01,320 Speaker 1: my absolute best that I could sell everything and steaming 1180 01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 1: everything and hanging everything. And I think those experiences just 1181 01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 1: show you what you want to do in your life, 1182 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 1: show other people really what you're made of. I'm just 1183 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,479 Speaker 1: like a I'm a really competitive person. So no matter 1184 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:17,280 Speaker 1: what it is that I'm doing, I want to be 1185 01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:20,120 Speaker 1: the best at that. I want to learn everything about it. 1186 01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:22,800 Speaker 1: And I'm just a super curious person. 1187 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:26,720 Speaker 3: Beautiful question of before. See as we've been talking about values, 1188 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,960 Speaker 3: what's something that you used to value that you no 1189 01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:33,440 Speaker 3: longer feel your value anymore? 1190 01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 1: Definitely material designer things I used to value, I mean stuff. 1191 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 1: I live in an area where there would be fires 1192 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:49,480 Speaker 1: a lot, and there was probably four times we had 1193 01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:53,760 Speaker 1: to fully pack up the house, everything out houses catching 1194 01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 1: on fire, property caught on fire, like really close to 1195 01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 1: losing everything. First time, packed up my entire shoe and 1196 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 1: bad closet and a lot of them because there were 1197 01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 1: memory stuff from my dad, stuff in high school, but 1198 01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:11,919 Speaker 1: all designer stuff, also videos, photos, whatever, digitized everything. Put 1199 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:19,120 Speaker 1: everything important somewhere else. Second, pack up the designer stuff, 1200 01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 1: but leave some. Leave some of the clothes. You know, 1201 01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 1: I don't really need all the clothes, but I packed 1202 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 1: a hotel for months. Bags and every designer thing that 1203 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:29,960 Speaker 1: I had had to come. Third time, leave all the 1204 01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:32,040 Speaker 1: bags and shoes I don't I don't need them. We 1205 01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:33,880 Speaker 1: got all the we got all the photos, we got 1206 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 1: all the my little blanky when I was little, you know, 1207 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:43,840 Speaker 1: the kids stuff. Fourth time, leave everything, me and my babies. 1208 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,200 Speaker 1: That's all I need, you know. I have all my 1209 01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 1: photos digitized. I have everything digital. We got our passports. 1210 01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 1: We're good. And that like evolution of like they had 1211 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:58,160 Speaker 1: to go in and get all my designer stuff or 1212 01:02:58,240 --> 01:03:00,400 Speaker 1: I'm not leaving my house. You know it's going to 1213 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 1: catch on fire. And now I'm like, nothing is worth it, 1214 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:10,680 Speaker 1: nothing is important. And I think that comes from life experiences, 1215 01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:15,640 Speaker 1: scary experiences, things shaking you to your core to make 1216 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 1: you realize that nothing is important. You can't I know 1217 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,000 Speaker 1: everyone says this, but like you can't take it with you. 1218 01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:22,960 Speaker 1: None of it is important. 1219 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:28,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a beautiful Islamic proverb that says detachment doesn't 1220 01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:33,280 Speaker 3: mean that you own nothing. It means that nothing owns you. 1221 01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:37,600 Speaker 3: And I feel so often we become owned by I 1222 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:41,480 Speaker 3: love that dreams, our desires, our pursuits, our things. Yeah, 1223 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 3: it doesn't mean that we have to give them all 1224 01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:45,919 Speaker 3: away or we don't have those things. It's just if 1225 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 3: and when we have to let go totally willing, are 1226 01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:50,200 Speaker 3: we able to let. 1227 01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 1: Totally, even with work stuff. I mean, it doesn't just 1228 01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 1: have to be the material things, like you said, like 1229 01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:00,600 Speaker 1: your dreams, and it's okay to be able to let 1230 01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:05,800 Speaker 1: go but work so hard to like the opposites are okay, 1231 01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 1: contradicting yourself a little bit in those ways. You know. 1232 01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 1: It's like in relationships, you can love a person, miss 1233 01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:17,120 Speaker 1: a person so much, but still have the wisdom to 1234 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 1: note they're not your person and you're better off not together. 1235 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:26,640 Speaker 1: That like opposite connection with everything. I think is really 1236 01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:30,800 Speaker 1: important to have that awareness and everything in life, relationships, 1237 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:33,840 Speaker 1: material things, all of that. 1238 01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:38,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. I officiated a wedding a few years ago and 1239 01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:42,439 Speaker 3: someone came up to me from the audience and said 1240 01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:46,600 Speaker 3: to me, jay, I realized from what you were saying 1241 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 3: that they'd just gone through a breakup recently, and they 1242 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:52,080 Speaker 3: were saying, jay, I realized that I loved that person, 1243 01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 3: but we didn't like each other anymore. And it was 1244 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 3: that essence of like, there'll always be that deep love 1245 01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:59,760 Speaker 3: for each other, yeah, but we just don't. 1246 01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:05,480 Speaker 1: Like family, you know, Like you love people, but it's 1247 01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:10,280 Speaker 1: okay to feel a protection of a person but then 1248 01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:14,600 Speaker 1: also protecting yourself and realizing when you have to and 1249 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:18,120 Speaker 1: when it's time, and it's okay to feel all of 1250 01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:21,120 Speaker 1: the opposite emotions, you know, I think as long as 1251 01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:25,360 Speaker 1: you're really well aware and go through the motions and 1252 01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 1: feel things and don't hold things in, it's so important, 1253 01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:34,600 Speaker 1: whether it's you know, breakups, deaths. I've always been really 1254 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:38,600 Speaker 1: clear headed and like, gone through the feelings, gone through 1255 01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:43,960 Speaker 1: the emotions, more in those relationships, more in those lifelong 1256 01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: relationships that you hope for, and then also be okay 1257 01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 1: and calm and realizing I've always been someone like, Okay, 1258 01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:59,440 Speaker 1: my dad died, why is this happening? What was his 1259 01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:02,680 Speaker 1: purpose here? And how are we going to grow and 1260 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:06,600 Speaker 1: learn from this experience? And I always said that, like 1261 01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 1: right when he passed, and I was felt it and 1262 01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:13,560 Speaker 1: super emotional about it, and you know, cry all the 1263 01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:15,920 Speaker 1: time when great things happen that I wish he was here. 1264 01:06:16,360 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 1: But also I had a wisdom at like a younger 1265 01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:22,000 Speaker 1: age to understand that this is like a part of 1266 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 1: our journey and a part of our evolution, and this happens, 1267 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:27,960 Speaker 1: and this is why you have to hold on to 1268 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:34,320 Speaker 1: relationships even more precious, but don't let things destroy you. 1269 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:36,920 Speaker 1: At the same time, if that makes it. 1270 01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:39,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it does make sense. I can tell just from 1271 01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 3: your energy, like I just want everyone to know who's 1272 01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:45,000 Speaker 3: listening and watching. Often people can say something, but the 1273 01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:47,520 Speaker 3: time I've spent with you, even today, I can tell 1274 01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 3: from the energy that you are content and you are 1275 01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:53,320 Speaker 3: so pya and you are I can feel that just 1276 01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:56,440 Speaker 3: just peace, like that's what I'm with you. I sense peace, 1277 01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,960 Speaker 3: and I think doing an interview with someone just it's 1278 01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:02,920 Speaker 3: different environment that I remember when I interviewed Kobe Bryant 1279 01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 3: and I almost felt like time stood still and his 1280 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:09,240 Speaker 3: word that I saw with his energy was gravity. I 1281 01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:11,520 Speaker 3: I just felt like everything was just. And then when 1282 01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:15,120 Speaker 3: I'm sitting with you, I'm feeling peace. And a lot 1283 01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 3: of the time people try to find people when they're 1284 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 3: not at peace, hoping that someone else will put their 1285 01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 3: pieces back together. You are at peace. Do you ever 1286 01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 3: feel like you want to be in love again? Do 1287 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 3: you long for that? Or are you so at peace 1288 01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:32,480 Speaker 3: that that isn't a consideration. 1289 01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:36,480 Speaker 1: I think I'll always be a hopeless romantic and always 1290 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:42,320 Speaker 1: want to be in love and definitely love sharing my 1291 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:45,000 Speaker 1: life with someone and love creating a life with someone. 1292 01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:49,680 Speaker 1: I definitely will take my time and I think there's 1293 01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 1: so many factors, especially when you have kids and being 1294 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:58,240 Speaker 1: mindful of people that enter in your life. And if 1295 01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:01,400 Speaker 1: I can look at everything that I did wrong and 1296 01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:04,480 Speaker 1: try to not make the same mistakes and really take 1297 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,360 Speaker 1: my time, I think it just has to be different 1298 01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:07,720 Speaker 1: for me. 1299 01:08:08,600 --> 01:08:08,800 Speaker 3: You know. 1300 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:12,800 Speaker 1: It's obviously such a hard place to be in because 1301 01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:16,280 Speaker 1: how do you go aback? Who do you? You know? It's like, 1302 01:08:16,400 --> 01:08:20,360 Speaker 1: so there's so many factors. But I'll always believe in 1303 01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:23,400 Speaker 1: love and I'll always want that, and I think that's 1304 01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 1: such a magical part of life. But I think I'm 1305 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:35,240 Speaker 1: so comfortable taking my time to not rush it. There's 1306 01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:38,680 Speaker 1: so much going on that I'm not lonely, and I 1307 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 1: think that that is really important. And I believe, like 1308 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:48,920 Speaker 1: I always believe, you know, and I think that whatever 1309 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 1: is meant to be will be. 1310 01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,760 Speaker 3: fIF and final question of the whole interview. If you 1311 01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:56,519 Speaker 3: could create one law that everyone in the world had 1312 01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:59,719 Speaker 3: to follow, what would it be?
