But then I was like, 135 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I feel like I'm a part time 136 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: trainer now, you know, Like I wasn't able to do 137 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: the things that I really wanted to do.

And now I'm even noticing that I've 143 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: just integrated those into my workouts that I've been doing, 144 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: you know, on Women's Health Live Workouts, and you know, 145 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: I'm hoping to do that on Nike Training Club too. 146 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: So I learned so much. 147 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 148 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's talk a little bit about the transition firstly 149 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 2: into that kind of opportunity and then out of it, 150 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 2: because personally, so much happened for you during that time 151 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: as well. 152 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 3: But when you announced that you were joining. 153 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 2: The team at Apple for Apple Fitness Plus, you were 154 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: in the early stages of being pregnant question Mark. 155 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: So it was September when we announced, but we'd already 156 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: been working on the project for a while. I my 157 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: partner and I at the time, you know, we weren't 158 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: married yet, but we had talked about having kids, and 159 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: you know, I hear so many people say, you know, 160 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: it could take up to a few years, and so 161 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: I think because we weren't putting pressure on it just 162 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: kind of happen. It happened a lot faster than we 163 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: thought it would, so we I think I was officially 164 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: pregnant in September, and that was shortly after we announced, 165 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: so I do know that we didn't share that I 166 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: was pregnant publicly on Apple and everything until December.

So, you know, that was I 275 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: think that was the hardest part was in the first 276 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: trimester when I was keeping it a secret. I felt 277 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: a lot better in the second trimester just you know, 278 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: I felt you know, more powerful, I felt like I 279 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: had more energy, and then just everyone was also just 280 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: celebrating it.

What was the reaction to you 290 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 2: training through your pregnancy from the outside inn Did people 291 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 2: have input on what you were doing with your body? 292 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, you know, I think that. I mean, we 293 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: were very careful with what we shared on social and 294 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to make sure that everything that I shared 295 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: was safe and you know, approved by other colleagues and 296 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: making sure I wasn't just pushing stuff out there that 297 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: was like I wasn't just doing heavy barbell cleans and 298 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 1: all these things. But you know, I remember posting something 299 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: in my story that was just kind of more of 300 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: a dynamic movement and someone was like, oh, you know, 301 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: I don't think you should be doing that, and to me, 302 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I think this is an opportunity 303 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: really to educate. So especially this time around, now that 304 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: I don't have working with Apple, I'm like sharing more 305 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: things that women can do when they're pregnant, because I 306 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: think a lot of people think you can't you can't 307 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: get your heart rate over a one forty, or you 308 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: shouldn't be jumping, and you shouldn't be doing all these things. 309 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: But if you have a healthy, safe pregnancy, hey, it's 310 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: totally fine as long as your body feels right doing 311 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: it and you're not doing anything that's going to hurt 312 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: the baby. And you know, if you're not sure what 313 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: to do, then you should definitely consult with somebody. But yeah, 314 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: you know, when people were reaching out, I was like, Okay, 315 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: this is an opportunity to educate and let people know 316 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: because it is a time where you should be active 317 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: and you should still be feeling good. It's actually going 318 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: to be better for you in the long run. I mean, 319 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: I went through forty one hours of birth. I felt 320 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: like the exercise that I was doing helped me endure 321 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: that forty one hours, you know, and I was able 322 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: to go through it like I felt like it was 323 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: only a few hours, you know. 324 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 3: So you're a superwoman. 325 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:23,479 Speaker 2: You you mentioned, you know that that assumption that some 326 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 2: may have heart rate getting over one p forty. Can 327 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: you talk us through some more of perhaps the know 328 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 2: how that you'd have now through both being pregnant and 329 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 2: obviously your education as a trainer when it comes to 330 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 2: foundationally what women should take into account while moving during pregnancy. 331 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, obviously you hear a lot of people say, well, 332 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: if you weren't doing exercise before, like maybe you shouldn't 333 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: do that, or you can do basically everything that you 334 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: were doing before, and that's so vague, but you know, 335 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: it's okay if you haven't been exercising before and you 336 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: want to start like a nice easy routine with someone 337 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: that's certified and knows your body and can make sure 338 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: you're doing everything that's safe. I think that's totally fine. 339 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: In fact, I think it's a great time to start 340 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,239 Speaker 1: exercising if you haven't been before. It doesn't mean you 341 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: need to be throwing around kettlebells and bar bells, but 342 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,719 Speaker 1: you know, it's a good time to start doing some 343 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: basic strength training. You know, a lot of people think 344 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: that you shouldn't be doing rotation, but you know, how 345 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: are you supposed to be putting on your seat belt 346 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: in the car? How are you supposed to grab something 347 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: in the back of the back of the car when 348 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: you're in the car. The key is just to making 349 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: sure that you're not like ringing your belly like you 350 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: just want to get movement through the upper part of 351 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: your body and get mobility because you know, as your 352 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 1: belly grows, you become more stiff through the upper part 353 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: of your back, so you want to make sure you're 354 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: getting mobility in there. And last thing, yet, you know 355 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna get your heart right up, and tracking your 356 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: heart rate isn't the way to go. It's such an 357 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,239 Speaker 1: old school way. You know, if you want to go 358 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: for a run, you're probably getting to get your heart 359 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: rate over forty one forty. I guarantee it in fact. 360 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: But you know, if you just got to listen to 361 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: your body and ask yourself how you're feeling as you're 362 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: moving through it, and you know, and that goes the 363 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: same for like jumping movements and you know, cardio or 364 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: hit workouts, like you could still go to all the 365 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: classes that you like, just modify and listen to your body. 366 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I love your tidbit about it's a great 367 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 2: time to try a strength training program under the supervision 368 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 2: of an expert, right, So, especially if this is something 369 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 2: that's new for you. While it might be tempting just 370 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 2: to go tackle some you know, on demand strength workout 371 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 2: you find online, at the very least find one that's 372 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 2: targeted toward pregnancy, and ideally you would go seek out 373 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 2: that qualified expert to give you that individualized feedback customization 374 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 2: for you and your body, which can be so helpful 375 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 2: during this time when whether it's your first pregnancy or 376 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 2: your sixth pregnancy, things are going to be different. 377 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I know that from experience because my body 378 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 1: Now I'm like, wait, what this is so different than 379 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: the first time around. 380 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 3: So you have a luna, how old is she. 381 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: Know she's sixteen months, wait, maybe seventeen seventeen months. 382 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 3: Look at her just she's just growing rapidly. 383 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 2: She's a ball of energy, absolutely adorable if I do 384 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 2: say so myself. You have a luna and talk us 385 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 2: through what the aftermath was like for you, kind of 386 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 2: rediscovering and getting acquainted with your body after pregnancy. 387 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, it's funny because you talk a lot about 388 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: pregnancy and working out and it's so important to move 389 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: whenever you're pregnant, but then postpartum is actually the time 390 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: you you want to be delicate and you want to 391 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: take care of yourself and you don't want to just 392 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: jump into the routines. And so for me, it was 393 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: very humbling to realize, oh I can't do the same 394 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: stuff that I was and oh I am peeing myself. 395 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: That means I probably should be going to pelvic floor 396 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: therapy and doing all the things. And so that was 397 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: so humbling for me because I think, especially as a 398 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: fitness person, you know, I've expected to I don't want 399 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 1: to use the phrase bounce back because that word to 400 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: me just kind of like I or that phrase. I 401 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: just feel like you just don't bounce back, you know 402 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't really happen that way. You know, you have 403 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: a brand new life with a brand new human. Things 404 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: are so different, and it's all about adapting to your 405 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: brand new life, but not forgetting who you were before, 406 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: you know. And so I had to just adjust to 407 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: everything that I had. You know, I wasn't sleeping. I 408 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 1: have to take care of this baby. I can't get 409 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: my early morning workouts in because I'm probably going to 410 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: be feeding. You know, I'm not as strong as I 411 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: used to be, and I just had to remind myself 412 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: that that is okay, you know. But as I started 413 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: to get my routine, and you know, I feel like 414 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 1: it's around four to six months where you're you can 415 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: kind of do things on your own again without your 416 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: baby just being like on you literally every second of 417 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: the day. I had to remember all the things that 418 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: I love to do, whether it be working out or 419 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: reading and meditating, and have to be able to communicate 420 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: that to my partner or you know, your nanny or 421 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: whoever you have to help to be able to take 422 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: that time for yourself. So that's so important. I had 423 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: to remember all the things that I loved before to 424 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: make sure that I was doing them still. So I 425 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: didn't forget who I was. 426 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 3: That grace that you speak of. 427 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: I think it's challenging for a lot of women to 428 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 2: find that, especially today with you know, all that is 429 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 2: Instagram and the highlight reel and TikTok and et cetera. 430 00:22:52,960 --> 00:23:00,199 Speaker 2: Were bombarded with these unrealistic expectations and images of what 431 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 2: isn't normal right of that quote unquote bounce back. So 432 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 2: for you, did you have a hard time getting to 433 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 2: this place of grace or do you feel like you 434 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: really landed there kind of from the get go. 435 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: No, I think I had a hard time. You know, 436 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: in the beginning, it was very positive. You know, like 437 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: my husband is one of the most chill people, and 438 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: I'm very very lucky because he is such a great 439 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: dad and he loves being a dad and he loves 440 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: taking care of a luna. So I have been able to, 441 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, be able to just hand a luna over 442 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,360 Speaker 1: to him and just take time for myself. But there 443 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,679 Speaker 1: were times where I would just start crying for no reason. 444 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: I remember just being at the Apple studio and I'd 445 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: just be sitting there and just be like, and I 446 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: just don't even know why I was crying, you know, like, 447 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 1: there are just so many hormones and finding that grace 448 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: was hard. But you know, finding that community of other 449 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: moms that I could commiserate with, just to know that 450 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,119 Speaker 1: I felt what I was feeling was normal was so important. 451 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: So for anyone that is going through that, I don't 452 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: want to say postpartum depression for myself, but maybe more 453 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 1: of the baby blues is just to find somebody else, 454 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 1: even just one person or two people that are just 455 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,239 Speaker 1: going to help you just get through that, talk through it, 456 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: you know, other moms around the same age, you know, 457 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: moms that have gone through it, because that's that was 458 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: really helpful. Like my mom was a single mom and 459 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: she barely remembers what the first six months were and 460 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,959 Speaker 1: so it was it was hard to talk to her 461 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 1: about it, you know. And I was so lucky to 462 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: have so many moms in my life that I could 463 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: talk with and be there for me, and it was 464 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: that's the number one thing is the community. 465 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was going to ask you, where did you 466 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 2: find that community for someone who may be seeking their own? 467 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. So I was fortunate enough to have other women 468 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: at work that already had kids, and so that was 469 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: very helpful. But you know, even just social media, you know, 470 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: just posting the real life things that are happening, and 471 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: I was able to get people to be I just 472 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 1: post a question like, Hey, is anyone ever blah blah 473 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: blah blah, and you'd get so many moms just be like, 474 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, yes, I can't. I remember that time, 475 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: you know, and just knowing that other people felt that 476 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: way just made me feel better, you know. But I 477 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: know that there are Facebook groups out there, and just 478 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: finding these different mommy and me groups, you know. I 479 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: went to music classes and stuff like that, and you 480 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: meet so many parents there. So I think that there's 481 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: so many opportunities to find that community. You just have 482 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: to go seek them, whether it's on Facebook or Instagram. 483 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 484 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I love that, you know, going to music 485 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 2: classes something obviously not surprising to me knowing you and 486 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 2: your background with music. 487 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 3: Is that something that you like to share with Luna? Oh? 488 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: Yes, Actually it's so cute.

I think she's gonna be 501 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 1: a pretty athletic, but I think she'll also have that 502 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: artsy side of her. 503 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 2: Well, I know that you love to work out with 504 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 2: her in the area, and you relocated to Texas, which 505 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 2: was a big choice for you and your husband. Talk 506 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 2: to me a little bit about that choice, relocating and 507 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 2: what that's been like for you. 508 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, so Nick is from Texas and we had talked 509 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 1: about at some point in our lives, like want to 510 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: be closer to family. You know, LA is very expensive, 511 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: as a lot of people know, and Nick also wants 512 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: like five billion kids. I'm good with like two or three, 513 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 1: so you know, having a large house in La is 514 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: like very expensive, and so it was something we thought about. 515 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: And you know, the Apple job was keeping me in 516 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: La and then at some point I was like, you 517 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: know what, I'm not sure if this is for me anymore. 518 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 1: I'd like to, you know, I'd like to move on. 519 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: And so at the same time when I was deciding 520 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: to leave, Nick actually got offered a job out here, 521 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: and so we were like, hey, this is kind of 522 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 1: perfect timing. So we just decided to like straight up 523 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: pick up and move. And we literally had to like 524 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: pack a twenty six foot U haul with all our 525 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 1: gim equipment, like all my strong friends had to come help, 526 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 1: because you know, every single moving company was going to 527 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: charge a buttload of money to move some like six 528 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 1: hundred pound equipment. So it was fun, like we actually 529 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: have space, you know, we have a we have like 530 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: almost half an acre, a big, you know, big garage 531 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: for our gym. So it's fun to have a Luna 532 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: just be able to you know, play around in there. 533 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: And I love being able to imagine what it's going 534 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 1: to be like when her brother is here and them 535 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: playing in the backyard together. So you know, it's all 536 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: it's kind of like that white picket fence stream, you know, 537 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: you have like your family, just being able to run 538 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: around in the backyard and we have our pool, and yeah, 539 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: I just know that that probably wouldn't have been possible 540 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: in LA for what we want at least or at 541 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 1: least not anytime soon. 542 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 2: Relocating can come with its fair share of challenges. What 543 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 2: would you say one of the biggest challenges is for 544 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 2: you at this. 545 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: Point sounds silly, but the food, Like I just love food, 546 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: but no, in La, you know, there it's so diverse 547 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: and food there it's just like anything that you want 548 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: is right there. And you know, Asian food even just 549 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: bubble tea, all the things that I love. But then 550 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: also like really healthy food, you know, like it's been 551 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: really challenging being pregnant and having a toddler, and you 552 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: know sometimes if we're just tired and we just want 553 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: to order like takaya, we can't order takaya. You know. 554 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: We have to like make our food if we want 555 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: something healthy, or we have like very limited in options 556 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: where we live. We are lucky we do have some, 557 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: but it's not nearly the same as LA. So that's 558 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: like a more of a funny note on you know 559 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: what I miss and what I'm missing out on. But 560 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: there are just a lot of things as far as 561 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: like all my friends are in LA. Like I really 562 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: thought that LA was where I was going to be 563 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: for life. And all my friends from Chicago live in LA, 564 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, all my best friends, Like it was kind 565 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: of like my whole little pod in Chicago all moved 566 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: to LA and then I moved there and we were 567 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: all complete. And now I'm gone, you know, So that's 568 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: been that's been really hard because I miss them a lot. 569 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: And then all the friends that I made at Apple, 570 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: Like when I first decided to leave, I was like, well, 571 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: it's okay because I'm still going to see them all 572 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: the time, and you know, we're going to be able 573 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: to hang out more because I'm not going to be 574 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 1: working as much, and you know, and then we decided 575 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 1: to move, and then I was like, oh, man, like 576 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: I miss everybody, and that was really hard and it's 577 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: still hard. But you know, I'm so grateful that we 578 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: have FaceTime. We have work that brings me to travel 579 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: to LA all the time, so I'm still able to 580 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: see all my friends. But those have been the biggest challenges. 581 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: But you know, family is everything to me. And the 582 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,719 Speaker 1: fact that I have my whole family and my dogs 583 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: and everyone here has been. 584 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 3: Really nice. 585 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 2: Taking a break from today's episode to talk to you 586 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 2: about my sponsor at eight Sleep, like Oh my gosh, 587 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 2: thirty percent of Americans, more than thirty percent of Americans. 588 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 3: I'm a hot sleeper.

I'm like, even before I was pregnant, 663 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: I can't go out after nine pm. So I'm like, 664 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:28,479 Speaker 1: I'm sleepy by eight. 665 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 2: Oh my god, you're speaking my language. You You're totally 666 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 2: speaking my language. So where were you when you found 667 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 2: out that you were pregnant with your second? 668 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 1: Oh? I was at home. I Oh, I knew it. 669 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: And you know what, it's wild because the aura ring 670 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 1: is the reason why I knew I was pregnant. 671 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 3: Tell me about it. 672 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 1: I had my body temperature stay up for like over 673 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: a week, but I knew I wasn't sick. I felt 674 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: really good, and I knew at that point i'd missed 675 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 1: my period. And I was like huh. And then I 676 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,359 Speaker 1: remember staying. I was like, oh, I don't remember where 677 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,399 Speaker 1: we were, but I was standing somewhere and I was like, 678 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 1: I'm going to take a test when I get home. 679 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 1: And then I went in the bathroom and I took it, 680 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,760 Speaker 1: and I remember being like oh, because at that point, 681 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: we weren't like trying trying. We were just kind of like, 682 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,479 Speaker 1: okay if it happened, like we wanted another one soon, 683 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 1: but we just didn't know when it would happen, especially 684 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 1: since we'd just moved. And I just remember like having 685 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 1: the little strip and I like walked into the kitchen, 686 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 1: I saw Nick, and I stuffed it in my pants 687 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: because I didn't know. I wanted to surprise him, you 688 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: know how. I wanted to tell him. So I stuck 689 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,840 Speaker 1: into my pants and I was like, I don't know 690 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 1: what to do. And then I eventually just like was like, hey, 691 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: I need to show you something. And then I like, 692 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 1: I think I put it on an element wrapper and 693 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: I was like, here, he need some elements and he 694 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: was like what, Like, I think that morning I gave 695 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: him an element already and he was like, why does 696 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: she keep giving me elements? 697 00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 3: Why is she pushing electrolytes on me, even you don't electrolytes. 698 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: We're in Texas now. But yeah, so it was very 699 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: exciting because you know, it was like we knew we 700 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: wanted to happen soon, but it wasn't like we were 701 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:10,840 Speaker 1: like waiting for it, you know. 702 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and a boy and a boy. 703 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: Oh gosh, Nick is so excited. 704 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,800 Speaker 3: So what would you say? What would you say? 705 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 2: From the last pregnancy, Some of the biggest learnings were 706 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 2: that you're taking with you right now in terms of 707 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 2: taking care of you and your body. 708 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, the first trimester, just rest like it's okay, you're 709 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: gonna feel like shit, you know. I remember the first 710 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: time during that first trimester, I was like, uh, I 711 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: don't think I could ever do this again, Like this sucks. 712 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: And then magically, you all of a sudden feel better 713 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: sometime in the second trimester. So I gave myself a 714 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: lot of grace this second time around, when every time 715 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: I felt like crap, I was like, it's okay, I'm 716 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 1: going to feel better. I'm going to feel like I 717 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: knew that there was a light at the end of 718 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 1: the tunnel. During except for like the first first time through, 719 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: I really was like I don't think I can do 720 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:14,760 Speaker 1: this again, Like this sucks. So just knowing that second 721 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,320 Speaker 1: time through is it made it a lot easier. But 722 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: the other thing I had to remember was that movement 723 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 1: always is going to make me feel better, like always, 724 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: like no matter what, movement is going to make me 725 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:31,479 Speaker 1: feel better. And also the mindfulness and meditation like that's 726 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: been a big thing for me and again like helped 727 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: me through that forty one hours of labor. And so 728 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: this time round taking care of a toddler, like you know, 729 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: I've told you that I let time pass and I 730 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: don't even know what week it is, but I've had 731 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: to make sure that I stay connected to the baby 732 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: in my belly and making sure that I'm very mindful 733 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 1: and not just like going through the motions, but staying 734 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: very connected to the journey because I think that really 735 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: helped me through my first try or first pregnancy, and 736 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that I can through this 737 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,320 Speaker 1: one too, Like, and there's also like everything that I'm feeling, 738 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 1: I know the baby feels, and like this time around, 739 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 1: like I'm so like, oh I'm so tired. Ah, oh 740 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 1: my gosh, the dogs are annoying. Da da da dah, 741 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 1: and it was just like last week where I told Nick, 742 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, I need to be 743 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: more patient with the dogs because I don't want him 744 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 1: to feel that, you know. And I was starting to 745 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: like realize and remember, like I was so chill when 746 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 1: I was with the Luna, but this time around, I'm 747 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: a little more anxious because I'm taking care of a 748 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 1: toddler and I have these like three crazy dogs running 749 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: around everywhere. Yeah, it's just one of those things where 750 00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: now I'm really trying to remember, like the baby's going 751 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 1: to feel everything I'm feeling, and I want to make 752 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 1: sure that I'm very present. 753 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 3: Two things to double click on. 754 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,440 Speaker 2: The first thing to double click on is you said 755 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 2: that your mindfulness practice happit helped you during that extensive labor. 756 00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 3: Can you elaborate on that? 757 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 1: Yes, so I actually learned about hypno birthing during my 758 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 1: third trimester. 759 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 3: Educate me. 760 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 1: Yes. So, hypno birthing was started by this woman, I 761 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 1: think her name is Marie Mungone and it's, you know, 762 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: supposed to be targeted towards women that want a natural birth. 763 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: I am someone that doesn't even like take ibuprofen. Like 764 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: I'm just like I'll just want an element and I'm 765 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:27,280 Speaker 1: good and some water. 766 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 2: You know, if I have a headache like wind backs, yeah, 767 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 2: element exactly. 768 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: So yeah. So the whole thing is is like you're 769 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 1: meditating and relax relaxing during your birth, and you know 770 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,399 Speaker 1: it's supposed to get you through the surges and get 771 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 1: you through the pain. And so I learned about it, 772 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 1: but I didn't actually take a course. I just read 773 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: the books and I learned. I did the meditations. I 774 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:56,720 Speaker 1: had a meditation labor playlist, and I went through twenty 775 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:01,720 Speaker 1: four hours of labor without anything. And I was going 776 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: through back labor, which is whenever their their head is 777 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,879 Speaker 1: facing your stomach and so or sorry they're they're they're 778 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 1: belly to belly, so they're facing up and so then 779 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: their heads every time there's a contraction, it just jams 780 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:19,399 Speaker 1: on your sacrum. And so it was very, very very 781 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: painful for me. But I went through a long time 782 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: without that epidural and I had I not swollen my service. 783 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: I ended up swelling swelling. Had I not swell been swollen, 784 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: I think I would have been able to push her 785 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: out without it. But my doctor was like, you're swelling 786 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: a lot, and we need you to relax. If you 787 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 1: don't relax like you're, we're probably gonna have to cut 788 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: you open, and I know you don't want me to 789 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,920 Speaker 1: do that, so let's give you some benadryl and then 790 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 1: you relax. And you know, I don't even know how 791 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: much time went by. I mean, obviously forty one hours, 792 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: but I was able to push her out eventually without 793 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:59,959 Speaker 1: a c section, and I I I can definitely occur 794 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,879 Speaker 1: at the hypno birth thing, but this time around, I'm 795 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,319 Speaker 1: actually taking a real, actual course and learning a lot. 796 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: We're in the third week and I'm learning from a 797 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:14,879 Speaker 1: fellow trainer, Taylor Walker Sinning, and she actually had gone 798 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: through two hypno birthing water berths, so it's kind of 799 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: fun to learn from her. We'll see how it goes 800 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 1: this time. I mean, the biggest thing is just that 801 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: I just want the baby to be here healthy. It's 802 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: okay if I have to get an epidural or whatever happens, 803 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:32,319 Speaker 1: but you know, I'm definitely want to Like it sounds weird, 804 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 1: but I want to feel everything.

If 832 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 1: I'm tired, I'm cranky and I'm going to be impatient. 833 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:10,799 Speaker 1: But you know, I just make sure that I'm communicating 834 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: to myself. I communicate to Nick. I also communicate to 835 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,479 Speaker 1: Nick with how I want to show up, and he'll 836 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: remind me. He's like, is that I don't think that's 837 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: the way you want to be And I'm like, uh, 838 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:25,720 Speaker 1: you're right, you know, And I think that it's definitely 839 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 1: second time around, it's been harder to be more patient 840 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,800 Speaker 1: with myself. You know. We had a lot of changes 841 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: in the past four months, like being in a new house. 842 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: I'm not with my friends anymore. We don't have a 843 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: full time nanny like we did in La. We have 844 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 1: like part time help. We do have Nick's family here, 845 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,399 Speaker 1: but you know, they all work full time. So it's 846 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 1: like I'm a mom, I'm working, and I'm constantly just 847 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 1: trying to be zen and it's hard. It's very hard, 848 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,399 Speaker 1: and I think that it's important to admit that it's hard, 849 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,040 Speaker 1: but also to know that I'm strong enough to to 850 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 1: endure and to be patient, and that I also have 851 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 1: to do the work every single day. You know, I 852 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: have to meditate. I have to, even if it's three minutes. 853 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: I have to take those breaths for myself. I have 854 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 1: to show love to myself so I can show up 855 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 1: really well for Nick and Aluna and the future. 856 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,760 Speaker 3: Babe, the future babe. 857 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 2: I love what you just said about communicating how you 858 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 2: want to be to your partner and having grace when 859 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 2: your partner reminds you of what you told them that 860 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 2: you want. And I think that that can be a 861 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 2: really beautiful tool, not only to use, obviously in this case, 862 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 2: within a romantic relationship, but to use within platonic relationships 863 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 2: or family relationships as a method of accountability. Right, So, 864 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:54,760 Speaker 2: if you have a certain goal that you're after, maybe 865 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,359 Speaker 2: we're talking a lot about mindfulness here. You said even 866 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 2: three minutes. If you're doing or you're aiming to do 867 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 2: three minutes of mindfulness work a day and it's not happening, 868 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 2: and you bring that up again with someone who you 869 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,959 Speaker 2: had stressed that this was an important thing to you, 870 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 2: then you need to be open to that feedback that 871 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 2: someone might come back to you with and say, remember 872 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 2: when you told me that this is important to you, 873 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 2: and be willing to receive that. 874 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, yes, one, yeah, I mean. And that's 875 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,279 Speaker 1: why accountability and having those people around you that you 876 00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 1: know will hold you accountable is so important. And it 877 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,240 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be a romantic partner, you know, having 878 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: those friends. I feel like, Emily, I feel like you 879 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 1: are probably that you're a really good friend in that way. 880 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 1: Like I feel like if I were to tell you something, 881 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: you'd be like, Okay, I'm gonna hold you. I'm gonna 882 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: hold you to that. 883 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 2: But Tina, well you're like, let me like talk you 884 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 2: up for a second.

You know, 935 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 1: I've been someone that's independent because I've had no choice 936 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 1: but to be independent. You know, my mom was a 937 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 1: single mom. I had to figure everything out on my own. 938 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: When I was in the band, I was trying to 939 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,200 Speaker 1: figure everything out on my own, trying to figure out 940 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 1: if I want to play music, do all this stuff. 941 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 1: And then you know, I found fitness, and then I 942 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: had like this stage of like imposter syndrome. So I'm 943 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,360 Speaker 1: always trying to prove myself, you know, I was always 944 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: trying to trying to be that smartest person in the room, 945 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 1: even though I had no idea what I was talking 946 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 1: about or was still learning. But as time went on, 947 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: I just realized, like community is everything, and you're not 948 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 1: going to know everything. And you know, the more that 949 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 1: you can celebrate other people, the more you can learn, 950 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: the more you can feel their energy, and the energy 951 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: you give to them is the energy you're going to 952 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,480 Speaker 1: get back, and you know that's just good for everybody 953 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 1: all around. And so I just learned that over a 954 00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 1: span of however many years, and it just kind of 955 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 1: came naturally. You know, I wanted to be everyone else's 956 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 1: cheerleader because you know, so many people are bringing each 957 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 1: other down in their own heads, you know, and they 958 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,839 Speaker 1: might not even be talking to people or you know, 959 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,319 Speaker 1: saying it to someone's face, but you know they're in 960 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: their own little world, like thinking this about somebody. And 961 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 1: I just knew that the more I could celebrate others, 962 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: the more that I'll have a big team and a 963 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:41,839 Speaker 1: big community. And you know that, like if I ever 964 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 1: need someone just to pick me up, I know that 965 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:45,120 Speaker 1: I'll have people around me to do that. 966 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,440 Speaker 2: It's like the energy that you give is the energy 967 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:51,799 Speaker 2: that you'll receive. It's been a really big thing for 968 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 2: me over the last six months, just this concept of 969 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 2: if you want love, then you have to give love, 970 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 2: you have to radiate love. Whatever you want back is 971 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 2: something that you have to be willing to give. 972 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, it's so funny because I was even thinking 973 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: about that on social like sometimes. Like actually, I was 974 00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:15,240 Speaker 1: just listening to our last episode and I was talking 975 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 1: about how I never scroll on social and I was like, yeah, 976 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 1: I usually just check my friends, but nowadays I'm just 977 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 1: like that, I'm just finding myself mindlessly scrolling because it's 978 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,280 Speaker 1: just like, well, how it's actually how I relax now. 979 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 1: But what I do is I try like every time 980 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:31,719 Speaker 1: i'm scrolling, I just like everybody's thing because I'm like, hey, 981 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,920 Speaker 1: everyone deserves ake, you know, Like, so look I might 982 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 1: not watch the thing all the way, but I'm like 983 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 1: this person deserves it, you know, And I just think 984 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 1: the more you can celebrate that, you know, It's it's 985 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 1: so cheesy, but you know, like there's so much to 986 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 1: go around love and energy and why not give it? 987 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 3: Yo? 988 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:53,520 Speaker 2: But what a good example or clear picture that you 989 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 2: are following things on social that you want to give 990 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,480 Speaker 2: that energy to and that actually do make you feel 991 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,720 Speaker 2: good because I feel as though there are probably people 992 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:10,960 Speaker 2: listening to this that wouldn't necessarily want to like everything 993 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 2: that's in their feed. So whatever you've done to construct 994 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:18,920 Speaker 2: and like carefully curate your feeds seems to be working 995 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 2: for you. 996 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:24,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess so well as a lot of baby stuff, 997 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 1: a lot of baby stuff. 998 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:28,279 Speaker 2: But now that you're pregnant with number two, of course 999 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 2: you're you're liking all of those things exactly. So what 1000 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,439 Speaker 2: excites you right now aside from baby number two? 1001 00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: So I think now that I'm a free agent again. 1002 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 1: You know, I'm working with Nike. You know, Nick and 1003 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: I have created lineup with us where we're able to 1004 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 1: unite our knowledge of training. You know, he's a performance 1005 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:56,279 Speaker 1: coach and I've trained the everyday person, and so we 1006 00:52:56,400 --> 00:53:01,560 Speaker 1: wanted to create content that conserve people, that's accessible, and 1007 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 1: it's inexpensive, and it's going to be something that people 1008 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:09,799 Speaker 1: can do anywhere. And that's been really exciting for me 1009 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 1: because I've been able to kind of do it the 1010 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: way that I want to do it. I'm not partnering 1011 00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:17,240 Speaker 1: with a brand. I'm not partnering with anyone else except 1012 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 1: for my husband. So we're kind of doing it the 1013 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,160 Speaker 1: way that we want. And you know, if it's not 1014 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 1: for you, it's okay. You know, if it's not your 1015 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:26,399 Speaker 1: learning style, that's okay. But even better if you love 1016 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 1: the programs, if you love the workouts and all the 1017 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,400 Speaker 1: things that we're bringing on there. So that's been very exciting. 1018 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,279 Speaker 1: We have a bunch of other stuff that we're working on. 1019 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 1: I love being able to just continue to explore the 1020 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:41,720 Speaker 1: world and see what else I can do. It's just fun. 1021 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: I think that's why, you know, I felt trapped before. 1022 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:47,280 Speaker 1: Now I'm like, Okay, what else can I do? It's exciting. 1023 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:53,439 Speaker 2: And I love your you know, opportunity growth mindset here 1024 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 2: in that you can say it's both. It was so 1025 00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 2: beneficial for you to have that family to fall back 1026 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:06,840 Speaker 2: on at Apple and those relationships to build, but now 1027 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 2: being back into this space that was your comfort zone 1028 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:15,760 Speaker 2: for so long, you can also find that sense of comfort, 1029 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:20,960 Speaker 2: that sense of reward and excitement here too. And you know, again, 1030 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:24,440 Speaker 2: this just goes back to you learning about yourself. Right, 1031 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 2: So for anyone else who may be interested in trying 1032 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 2: their own thing A Lah what you're doing, not necessarily 1033 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:35,320 Speaker 2: needing to be in the fitness space, but in whatever 1034 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 2: industry they're in, What pieces of advice or tips do 1035 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 2: you have to offer them for them on their journey? 1036 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:45,600 Speaker 1: You know what, You just got to do it. I 1037 00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:49,399 Speaker 1: think a lot of people sit here and they write 1038 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,280 Speaker 1: out their plan, which is very important in all your ideas, 1039 00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:54,239 Speaker 1: but then you sit on it for way too long. 1040 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 1: You know, Like there are so many people that are 1041 00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 1: just already taking off and doing things because they try 1042 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 1: and maybe they failed, but they learned and then they 1043 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 1: were able to do it again and do it better. 1044 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,919 Speaker 1: So instead of just waiting, you just got to go. 1045 00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 1: Just got to do it. 1046 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:11,319 Speaker 3: Just got to do it, you know. 1047 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 2: I think the lead quote on last week's episode with 1048 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:18,919 Speaker 2: Jessica Robertson from Together is there are no failures, there's 1049 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:20,239 Speaker 2: only lessons. 1050 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,480 Speaker 3: H Yes, it's so true. 1051 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 2: I had another episode not all that long ago talking 1052 00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 2: about the fear of success and how so many of 1053 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:32,440 Speaker 2: us actually are really good at failing. I mean, it 1054 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily mean that the blow hurts any less, but 1055 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:38,880 Speaker 2: it's something that we've become accustomed to because it truly 1056 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:43,239 Speaker 2: is such a part of everything from personal to professional. 1057 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 2: But when it comes to success, that opens a door 1058 00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,279 Speaker 2: to a lot of unknown that we may be completely 1059 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 2: unfamiliar with. Right, whether that's exposure or just unlocking a 1060 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 2: different level of your own potential, those things can be 1061 00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 2: super scary, right. 1062 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:00,399 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, Yes, but you know you just got 1063 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:03,320 Speaker 1: to try it and like it. Just like everything, it's repetition. 1064 00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 1: You know, the more you can do it, the more 1065 00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 1: you're like, Okay, I got this, I'm going to get 1066 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:08,800 Speaker 1: up and do it again. 1067 00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 3: You know, I feel like it was just yesterday. 1068 00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:15,280 Speaker 2: Uh, you know, when you announced that you were joining 1069 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:18,080 Speaker 2: the team at Apple, And I don't have you know, 1070 00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:21,239 Speaker 2: the exact wording at my fingertips right now, but I 1071 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:26,200 Speaker 2: remember that it was literally like dream job unlocked. Now, 1072 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:31,799 Speaker 2: when you think about your career thus far and perhaps 1073 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:35,920 Speaker 2: something that you're the most proud of, what comes to mind. 1074 00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 1: Staying true to myself no matter what, and you know, 1075 00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 1: making sure that whatever I'm doing is serving me and 1076 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 1: what I want for my day to day. And you know, 1077 00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 1: that job was a dream job at the time, and 1078 00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: I think it served its purpose in my life. But 1079 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,759 Speaker 1: you know, things change and things happen, and you know, 1080 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:03,400 Speaker 1: as time went on, I was like, Okay, dream job unlocked, 1081 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:05,200 Speaker 1: next step, what's next? 1082 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the next dream? Right? 1083 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:10,520 Speaker 2: And I think that that goes kind of hand in 1084 00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 2: hand with the sentiment that it's okay to change the plan, right, 1085 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 2: Like I to have gone through so many different moments 1086 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,080 Speaker 2: of feeling like really strong in my purpose and in 1087 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:24,440 Speaker 2: my career despite being in different roles. I remember when 1088 00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 2: I was the fitness editor itself, like literally at the time, 1089 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:29,040 Speaker 2: my absolute dream job. 1090 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 3: But now I cannot imagine going to do. 1091 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 2: That job every day, like it would be nothing like 1092 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:39,040 Speaker 2: what I would feel would be right for me in 1093 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 2: this moment. But I'm six years older now, and you 1094 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 2: are soon to be a mother of two now, and 1095 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 2: so with time, things change and people change, and to 1096 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 2: have the grace with yourself as you change is a 1097 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 2: really great opportunity. 1098 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, And you just have to enjoy the journey, every 1099 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 1: single minute of it. You have to enjoy it, embrace 1100 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 1: it because it's all a part of who you are 1101 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 1: and it's a part of your story. 1102 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 2: Right now, when someone goes to your social media, they 1103 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 2: see a happy mama with a cute kiddo, another one 1104 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:17,440 Speaker 2: on the way gearing up with your new platform line 1105 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 2: up with us. When you look in the mirror, what 1106 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 2: is it that you see looking back at you? 1107 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 1: I see a strong Filipina that has so many opportunities 1108 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 1: to inspire not only other people, but her daughter, her child, 1109 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 1: her husband, and most importantly, herself. You know, I love 1110 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 1: being able to surprise myself, and every time I look 1111 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:47,720 Speaker 1: in the mirror, I'm like, wow, yeah, I was capable 1112 00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:50,640 Speaker 1: of doing that, and you know, it hasn't been an 1113 00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 1: easy journey, but I'm super proud of everything that I've done. 1114 00:58:55,840 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 2: I love the pride that you have for your heritage. 1115 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 2: What do you think is a part of that that 1116 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 2: you are most excited to pass along to your children? 1117 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 1: I think the food. The food. 1118 00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 2: Back to the food, It's okay. I had a Christmas 1119 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 2: tree tree. I had a Christmas tree decorating party the 1120 00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:20,120 Speaker 2: other day, and you want to know, every single ornament, 1121 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 2: for the most part, that was gifted to me had 1122 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:23,280 Speaker 2: something to do with food. 1123 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 3: All of it. 1124 00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: No shame, That's so funny. No, you know, besides the food, 1125 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 1: I think the pride, you know, just being really proud 1126 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 1: of being Filipino. And I don't even know what it 1127 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,160 Speaker 1: is about Filipino as being proud of who they are. 1128 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, there's just so much. I feel like 1129 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,320 Speaker 1: when you meet a Filipino, you're just like, oh, you're 1130 00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 1: a Filipino.
