I'm Amy and. 11 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: I'm Cat and I am starting with the feeling of 12 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: the day. I'm feeling relieved. 13 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 3: Oh. I don't know what you're relief from. But you know, 14 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 3: my favorite thing about relief whenever I hear relief or relief, like, 15 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,279 Speaker 3: I exhale. So it's like, to me, relief is permission 16 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 3: to exhale. Yeah, you made it exhale. 17 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: Well I actually did do that. Okay, So I'll get 18 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: into why I'm relief. But at the same time, my 19 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: relief comes with a lot of excitement. It's a lot 20 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: of convoluted stuff. I was in my therapist's office talking 21 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 1: about it this past week and she said, like, what 22 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: does that bring up for you or what does that 23 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: feel in your body or something along those lines. Very therapisty, 24 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: and I said, I feel like I can just breathe. 25 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 3: Really, yeah, I did not know. Obviously, I don't even 26 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 3: know exactly what you're gonna say. And I had no 27 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 3: idea that you had that moment with your therapist. But 28 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,639 Speaker 3: it's so true. 29 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 1: That's just the gift. 30 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 3: Like we sometimes you talk about the gifts or the 31 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 3: impairments of a certain feeling, and relief is just such 32 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 3: a good one, because yeah, it's just an ex sail. Yes. 33 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: And so it was funny as I was talking to 34 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: her because I was so excited and I was like 35 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 1: talking so fast. I was like, I feel manic and 36 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: at the same time I feel relieved. It was just 37 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 1: like this weird dialectic, like two things happening at once. 38 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 3: Well, so what are we relieved about? 39 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: Yes, we want to exhale. Tell you, are we going 40 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: to exhale with you? Maybe? Because at the same time, 41 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: this brought up a moral dilemma for me. So this 42 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: is a mixed bag, But the biggest feeling is relief 43 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: when I sit down with it. So I was reading 44 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: this new book called Rich Girl Nation by Katie Gaddie Tassin. 45 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 3: Katie Gaddy Tassin Gaddy tussin. 46 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 1: I might be those are two two last names. I 47 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: might be saying it's not hyphenated, it's just double. 48 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 3: She's a double last name. 49 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if one of them's her maiden name, 50 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: or maybe her name is Katie Gaddy. I don't know, 51 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: and I think it's toss enough. I'm thinking about it anyway. 52 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: Her instagram is at Money with Katie. If you're not 53 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: following her, highly recommend it. She is a finance expert, 54 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: but she specializes in helping women with finance, and she 55 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: originally was in marketing, and so she also talks a 56 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: lot about the psychology around money and finances and women 57 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: and the economy and all that. It looks like you're 58 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: about to yawn. Are you tired, I'm just like money finance. 59 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 3: No, actually, I think I yawned because I woke up 60 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 3: really early. I'm intrigued. I actually just thinking my mind, like, oh, 61 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 3: I'm very interested in following her or seeing what she's 62 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 3: about because in the last two years or so, I've 63 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 3: taken over my money, my finances, and I've had to 64 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 3: learn a lot of things. Yeah, a lot because of 65 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 3: seventeen years of marriage of not being involved in that 66 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 3: by choice. It's not like I was married to someone 67 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 3: that was like, you can't be involved. I was like, yay, 68 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 3: you handle all that. I'm scared of it, so I'd 69 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 3: like to avoid it. And what I now know is 70 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 3: that it's very empowering to know. Information is empowering. The 71 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 3: knowledge is empowering, and knowing every detail of my life, 72 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 3: even though sometimes it can be overwhelming, at the end 73 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 3: of the day, it's information. Information is power. And I'm 74 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 3: sure she's full of helpful things for me. 75 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: When you say you are scared of it, do you 76 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: know like. 77 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: It was because my dad he had a lot of 78 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 3: highs and lows bus money. 79 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 1: Okay, So I recommend her because she doesn't talk down 80 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: to people. Know how some finance people can be so 81 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: confusing they use all this lingo. She uses some of 82 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: the lingo, but her book I think anybody could pick up. 83 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: She has a podcast too. The book is really great 84 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: because I think it's high level, covering stuff that then 85 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: on her podcast and stuff she goes into deeper, which 86 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: can be overwhelming. But her whole point is like money 87 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: is power, and historically women haven't been in charge of 88 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: money and they've had harder time making money and creating 89 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: financial freedom and wealth, and so she wants to help 90 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: women understand that they can do it. And she's also 91 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: self taught because again she was a marketing major. So 92 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,160 Speaker 1: that is in itself, I think helpful to hear that, like, Okay, 93 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: she taught herself this. That means that, like I can 94 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: have somebody help teach me this. It's never too late, 95 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: never too late. 96 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:48,679 Speaker 3: That's that's one thing I've Yeah, in my mid forties, 97 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh wow, you know, and I still have 98 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 3: more to learn. And I also just want to say 99 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 3: about my yawn, Like I've been thinking about the yond 100 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: that we've talked about this on the podcast, and that's 101 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 3: just me sending oxygen to my brain so that I 102 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: can absorbed. We know it's not always because somebody is 103 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 3: bored and tired. 104 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, so now if your therapist ever yawns in your 105 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: session with you, you can have some compassion for her. Okay, 106 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: So disclaimer, I've only read two chapters of this book. 107 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 1: You've only read two chapters. And when I say read, 108 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: I mean listen to because I'm an audible girl. 109 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 3: So in the first two chapters, you already have this 110 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 3: sense of relief. 111 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: Yes, of Okay, what exactly I know, I'm really giving 112 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 1: you the long winded story of this. So in the 113 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: beginning of the book, she talks about this thing that 114 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: I've heard her talk about on podcasts and on Instagram about. 115 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: I think she coined this the hot Girl hamster wheel. 116 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: So she describes a hot Girl hamster wheel as all 117 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: of the things that you kind of put into this 118 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: basket of different beauty things that you get done or 119 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: stuff that you buy that allows you to be a 120 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: end quote girl that gives you power and I think 121 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 1: confidence in the world. So in her Hot Girl hamster wiel, 122 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: that would be like facials, getting her hair highlighted, getting eyelashed, extensions, 123 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: buying makeup, buying certain clothes, stuff like that. 124 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 3: Oh, I don't get my nails done. 125 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 1: Well, this isn't a competition, but I also do my 126 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: own nails. 127 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 3: But before you started doing your own, like you, getting 128 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 3: your nails done was part of your. 129 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: It was myself part of myself maintenance, which I always said, 130 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: I do not like the process of getting my nails done, Like, 131 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: I don't enjoy it. I don't like going and sitting there. 132 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: I don't like I mean, it's not relaxing like a 133 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: social is relaxing. 134 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 3: I don't like getting my nails stone. Yeah, And I 135 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 3: was only pointing that out because I feel like, when 136 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 3: you're going to run through this, at least what I 137 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 3: was getting from the Hot Girl Hams girls, I'm like, shoot, 138 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 3: I do that. Shoot, that's okay, that's okay, yeah, because 139 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 3: you're feeling relieved and right now I'm feeling like nervous shame. 140 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: Oh okay. So I hope that this in turn will 141 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: just bring agency to people, okay. 142 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 3: Because I'm also we should address that I'm wearing a 143 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 3: hat today because I had my brows worked on yesterday. 144 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: And maybe part of this is yeah, part of this 145 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: can be part of the hot girl hamster will fore you. 146 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: But I'm not saying that you're doing anything wrong, thank you. 147 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: So just clock that. I think that's important information. Clock that, 148 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: like I already feel shame that I'm doing this. That's 149 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: part of the whole problem here, Okay, Okay. So she 150 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: talks about this stuff, and she's talking about this at 151 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: a time where she was first getting into finance and 152 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: like learning about budgeting. So when she was in her 153 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: early twenties, she was probably making like sixty K. She 154 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: started a budget for the first time, and she wanted 155 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: to see what all of her expenses added up to. 156 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: She did all of those like hot girl expenses. She 157 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: added them all up and then divided them and then 158 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: figured out at how it came out monthly, and she 159 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: was spending over three hundred dollars a month on all 160 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: of that stuff. And the way she described that stuff 161 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: happening is she was like, I would feel bad about myself, 162 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: and then I would schedule all these appointments, and then 163 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: I would go to these appointments thinking that this is 164 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: going to be the thing that makes me feel better, 165 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: this is going to be the thing that gives me confidence. 166 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: I need this thing so then I can go out 167 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: into the world and get what I want, whether that'd 168 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: be relationships, friends, job, whatever. But she said when she 169 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: would have that feeling of dread and she would go 170 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: schedule these appointments, she would have a whole day of 171 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: self care. But really it's just buying stuff. She would 172 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: get increasingly anxious with each swipe of her credit card, 173 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: like spending money that she really didn't have on these 174 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: things that she felt like she needed to feel okay. 175 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: And the problem is two weeks later, some of that 176 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 1: stuff would wear off. You would have to go back 177 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: and reget your eyebroils threaded, redo your lashes, read like 178 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 1: every six weeks, update your roots like all of that. 179 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: This is probably before roots were in. 180 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 3: So that's her being on the perpetual wheel. 181 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,359 Speaker 1: Yeah. And so she was like, I'm going to see 182 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: what I want to see. What spending all this money 183 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: is stealing from me? Because it really the benefit she 184 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: wasn't getting that much. It was like this temporary relief 185 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: that she felt like she had to then keep going. 186 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: So she put the three hundred dollars. She basically, I'm 187 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: new in the finance world, but she used a compounding 188 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: interest big word, compounding interest calculator to see if she 189 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 1: invested that money over forty years, what would that leave 190 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: her in retirement. It was a million dollars. 191 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 3: Wow. 192 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: And so to some people a million dollars wouldn't be 193 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: that much money, but to somebody who's making sixty thousand dollars, like, 194 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: that's a lot of money. And her thought was like, 195 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: these things that I don't really care about but I 196 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: feel like I have to do are stealing my financial 197 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: freedom for me. And part of that is connected to 198 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: the oppression of women, where you don't see men being 199 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: pressured to have all the same like hotgirl things like 200 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: Patrick gets a twenty dollars haircut every couple months at 201 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: like great clips. Like he doesn't care where he goes. 202 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: He'll go to a new place every time, it doesn't matter. 203 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 1: And he doesn't have a skincare routine. He doesn't wash 204 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: his face, he lets water run down it in the shower. 205 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: He doesn't even use a bar of soap to wash 206 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: his face, just water. And he has perfect skin, like 207 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: he doesn't have to have any special kind of clothes 208 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 1: like for men, they're already so much higher on the 209 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: ladder to wherever you want to go, especially in business 210 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: and work, that they don't have to look the same 211 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: way or keep up the same kind of appearance as women. 212 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 3: So like at his job, he doesn't need to look 213 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: a certain way in order to get promoted. 214 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: No, he's a man, that's enough, right, And she looked 215 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: at the statistics again read the book because obviously this 216 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: I'm giving you. 217 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 3: Just read the first two chapters. 218 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: Read the first two chapters. But she talks about like 219 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: all the statistics of like the wage gaps and what 220 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: that looks like. And also like, this is really sad 221 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: that they have done studies on like the attractiveness of 222 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: women and their ability to make money and their ability 223 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: to get promoted. That's like just a sick, weird research. 224 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 1: What do you call experiment to conduct? Like Oh, we're 225 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: going to rate these women's attractiveness and then see so 226 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: but they've done that. 227 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 3: I don't want to be in. 228 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: I don't want to be in that, but they've proved that, 229 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: like it does matter what you look like. And so 230 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: that's where I was feeling, like multiple things, and I 231 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: was a little bit like bummed, and then I was 232 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: because it's like, well, I don't want to be on 233 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: this wheel, but also like I want a promotion or 234 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: I want to be successful, and it feels like you 235 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: have to pick one or the other. But what I 236 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: came to is I read it and I was listening. 237 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: I listened to it right before I was going to therapy, 238 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 1: So I was like, really hot in my mind? Is 239 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: this like feeling of liberation? I was like, oh, this 240 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: is like a act of dollion almost that like I'm 241 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: not going to play this game anymore when it comes 242 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,719 Speaker 1: to stuff that I don't care about. Now there are 243 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: people that love doing makeup, love it like they love it, 244 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: love it, love it. It's so much fun for them. 245 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: It's kind of a chore for me. Like I like 246 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: to do it every now and then, but most days, 247 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: I just like to put my sunscreen on intended sunscreen 248 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: and some bronzer and head the door. So it's like 249 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 1: liberating for me to say, like I don't need to 250 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: go buy all that stuff at Sephora because that doesn't 251 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: actually matter to me, Or like the nails, like me 252 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: saying I'm not going to go get my nails done 253 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: and spend one hundred and fifty dollars every two weeks 254 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: on something that I don't really care about when I 255 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: can do it myself and I actually enjoy doing them myself. 256 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 1: Or I was talking to Patch about this. I just 257 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: booked a hair appointment and I was like, maybe I'll 258 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: just like not get my hair colored. I'll just get 259 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: it cut because it happens. Yeah, It's like I've just 260 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,599 Speaker 1: always been getting my hair colored. And it used to 261 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: be fun because I used to like diet silver and 262 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: like purple and stuff like that, and that was kind 263 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: of fun. But like I don't know, like it's not 264 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 1: that fun to get for me. 265 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 3: I see. That's what I'm hearing is for you, you're able 266 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 3: to dictate. It's been empowering because you're like, Okay, I 267 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 3: have agency over what I want to do. I'm not 268 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 3: going to just do it because it's what's expected of me. 269 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 270 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 3: Well, and because other people may really enjoy they love 271 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 3: their hair, they love their not like you said, they 272 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 3: love the makeup, or they enjoy getting this doneder their skin, 273 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 3: and financially they can do it. There's not this anxiety 274 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,199 Speaker 3: that maybe comes with like every swipe of like oh 275 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 3: shoot yeah. 276 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: But if I'm feeling this anxiety of like I'm spending 277 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: my resources on this and it's a temporary high, and 278 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: I also feel like I have to, it's like, well 279 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: you don't have to, Like we can take some agency back. 280 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: I think what I'm getting and I'm again just in 281 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: the beginning of it, but just seeing how the like 282 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: beauty and wellness industry, a lot of it this is 283 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: not blanket. So I think that's why I want people 284 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: to hear that this is not all or nothing, but 285 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: a lot of it has been created and sustained in 286 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: order to oppress women. So for me to say that 287 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: like I don't need that feels really good and almost 288 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: like I knew I didn't like that. Like when I 289 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: was hearing her talk, I was like, yeah, I don't 290 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 1: like doing that, Like I don't want to do that anymore. 291 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: And yes, that's going to come with discomfort because I 292 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: then have to know that that could there could be 293 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: a consequence because not everybody's going to be in that 294 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: boat with me, and I might have moments where I'm like, well, 295 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: I do kind of feel everybody else has their botox. 296 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, their foreheads look pretty good. Like that's one 297 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: thing that I noticed, and I see like a lot 298 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: of people that like do have these perfect looking like 299 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: you know, when you get botox in your forehead, it's 300 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 1: just so pretty. 301 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 3: Trust me, I know, and I ass it. 302 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: So but like when I'm not around it, I'm okay. 303 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: But when I I see it, then I'm like, now 304 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: I feel different. So I know that that's going to 305 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: be there, But right now that's not overweghing this like, yeah, 306 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: I don't feel empowered when I go to get it. 307 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: Some people might. 308 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we were talking about that. I was 309 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 3: getting comfortable with my wrinkles the other day. And I 310 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 3: truly am like there's a time whenever I was really 311 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 3: into my boatox because I got it for yeah, well 312 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 3: over ten years if there was the slightest movement or sprinkle, 313 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: and I still thought in my mind I was getting 314 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 3: minimal amounts. But then the more I went over the years, 315 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 3: the more it felt like I was getting and the 316 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 3: less it was working. So that's where maybe there's some 317 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 3: discomfort with spending because I'm like, oh, this seems to 318 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 3: be heading up. This is just more and more and 319 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 3: more each time, But then you get used to looking 320 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: that way, and then it took me a while to 321 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 3: get used to now looking back the other way. But 322 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 3: I also think I have I take better care of 323 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 3: my skin, even when I did before I got botox. 324 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 3: So maybe you know who, I'm not giving up my 325 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 3: skincare routine. That's not happening. 326 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: Well, that's important to me. Well, so the reason that 327 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: this also felt so like I gets safest of word 328 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: that's also coming to me, like hearing her say this 329 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: is she was like, I'm not telling anybody to not 330 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: do any of this stuff. 331 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I'm still gonna get certain officials, and I 332 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 3: just got the I'm still trying to figure out my eyebrows. 333 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: I'm on a journey.

But for me, 340 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 3: like I don't really have a lot of hair there, 341 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 3: and I've learned how to draw them on. Yes, but 342 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 3: now what do I do when I go swimming? 343 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: Keep your head above water? Or you just embrace it? 344 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: You just embrace it. 345 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 3: And I'll be like, I know that before I went underwater, 346 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 3: I had broads, and I know when I emerged from 347 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 3: the water that I did not. 348 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: But she said, like what she was doing, she didn't 349 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 1: just stop getting all that stuff. She just kind of addressed, Okay, 350 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 1: what stuff do I care about and what do I not? 351 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: And she tested things out, like she even made a joke. 352 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: She was like, I wasn't going to just stop getting 353 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: highlights in my hair, Like I still wanted to do that, 354 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: but I think she stopped doing her eyelash extensions, or 355 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: maybe it was like her eyebrow threading. It was one 356 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: of them, and or she said she stopped getting her 357 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: extensive facials. And she was like, and I got a 358 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,679 Speaker 1: manageable skincare routine that fit in my budget. She's like, 359 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,959 Speaker 1: it's not that I wasn't doing any of this. I 360 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: just realized that, like, I can fit these things in 361 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: my budget and then realize the things that like I 362 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: don't care about, I get to throw those out. 363 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 3: So I just was like, that is a relief to 364 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 3: like know that, oh, you get to do that. I 365 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 3: don't have to you don't have to stay on the wheel. 366 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 3: You get to exit the ride and then decide what 367 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 3: you want to do. And I like that she put 368 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 3: it that way, and you're reiterating that it's not that 369 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 3: she's saying any of this stuff is bad or we 370 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 3: shouldn't be doing it, but just understand what's behind it 371 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 3: and the root of a lot of it, and then 372 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 3: step back and decide what you want to do for yourself. Yeah, 373 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 3: And I would even encourage, like, just play around with 374 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 3: that a little bit, because you never know how you're 375 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 3: going to feel. I didn't know how I was going 376 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 3: to feel until I stop eating the boatox. And guess 377 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 3: what if I go to get botox again because I'm 378 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 3: not anti it, or I decide to get something else again, 379 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 3: Like I hope I'll be coming from a place of 380 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 3: like I put a lot of thought into this and 381 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 3: ultimately this is what I want to do, and I'm 382 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 3: doing it for me and to be honest in my profession, 383 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 3: I do feel a lot of pressure with that. And 384 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 3: I am only getting older and it is my job 385 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 3: and I am on camera a lot, and I'm interviewing 386 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 3: artists and app functions where yes, my name coming up 387 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 3: to be considered to host this, or why don't we 388 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,880 Speaker 3: have Amy Brown do that? And then it's like, yeah, 389 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 3: we have you. She's look at her eyebrows, shit, cau, 390 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 3: you're getting boat talks, or she's aged like let's go 391 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 3: with the younger girl, or you know, I don't. 392 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: Know, yeah, but that's okay too. 393 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 3: I'll also there's enough room for everybody, so then I've 394 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 3: got to find my space. But there is that and 395 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 3: that fear that creeps up in there to your point 396 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 3: of like opportunities come when we're taking care of ourselves. Yeah, 397 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 3: but it's a big conversation. 398 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm sure I'll hear more of this as 399 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: I continue the rest of the book. But I also 400 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: think I would be remiss not to say I think 401 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: the world, and we've talked about this on the show before, 402 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: women are in a tough place because I think also 403 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: the world kind of not demonizes, but they make women 404 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: feel silly for caring about things that like the world 405 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 1: has told women to care about exactly. Yeah, it's like 406 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 1: you're damned if you do you damned. Yeah, it's like, oh, 407 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: you're going to spend money on that. But then if 408 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: you don't spend money on it, they're like, oh you 409 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 1: look old, yeah, or like oh you care about that 410 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,919 Speaker 1: the like you care about shopping and clothes and this 411 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: and that. It's like, well, that's what you groom women 412 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: to care about that stuff, Like that's what society tells 413 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 1: women that they should care about. And then they care 414 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: about that stuff, and then they're like, oh, you're silly, 415 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: you're not smart. You're men care about financing, women care 416 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 1: about shopping. 417 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 3: Like I will say, more and more men are getting 418 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 3: hair transplants in Turkey. Yeah, oh yes, yes, like, I 419 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 3: know multiple people that have gotten it done, most recently 420 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 3: in Turkey. In Turkey, I was just an appointment the 421 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 3: other day. Can't say who or what because I'm sure 422 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 3: he wouldn't mind. Obviously, you know it's a man, because 423 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 3: we're talking about man. And he's like, well, you know, 424 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 3: I just go back from Turkey, and I could tell. 425 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 1: I was like his hair, like, you went to Turkey. 426 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 3: I didn't know if we went to Turkey, and I 427 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 3: didn't know for surfy got a hair transplant, but I 428 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 3: knew something was up. And he was like, oh, yeah, 429 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 3: I went to Turkey. And I was like, shut up, 430 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 3: tell me more. Did they do eyebrows? 431 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 1: And he's like, I bet they do. 432 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 3: And I was like, okay, I'm not going to Turkey 433 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 3: to get an eyebrow transplant. But uh, people in Turkey, Yes, 434 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 3: it is more affordable and way faster, Like they have 435 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 3: a whole team. He said, it was so crazy. They're 436 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 3: so efficient over there, whereas here you might go to 437 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 3: a doctor and there's like one person working on you 438 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 3: and it may take like all day. Over there, there's 439 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: a whole team of people and you'll be in and out. 440 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 3: So where is here a doctor might do a procedure 441 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 3: or two a day. Over there, they can knock out 442 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 3: ten people in a day, so they can make it 443 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 3: more affordable. Wow. And he said it's one of the 444 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 3: best decisions he ever made. And he was just feeling 445 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 3: really self conscious about the loss of his hair. And 446 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 3: then Joel McHale was on a podcast recently talking about it. 447 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 3: You know the guy from the soup and. 448 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: From the soup from the scenes. Has he done anything. 449 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 3: Else the animal something? Animal control? Is that not right? 450 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: You had an animal show? 451 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 3: I don't know. I feel like I read in an 452 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 3: article when I saw the podcast sing something about animal control. 453 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: Okay, but I know him from the soup. 454 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 3: So he said that he's had four hand hair transplants 455 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 3: over the years. I think because with a technology, the 456 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 3: evolution of the project, I want a better I need 457 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 3: to get a better one, because he started off with 458 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 3: one process and it's like, oh, you've advanced it. So 459 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 3: he said, he said four in total. I mean in 460 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 3: his hair is looking. 461 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: I feel like his hair has always looked pretty thick. 462 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 3: No, whenever I googled it to look it up, because 463 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 3: this is something I didn't even know. We were talking 464 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 3: about this we talked about this on the Bobby Bone Show, 465 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 3: and so I googled it when we were talking about 466 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 3: it there, and I saw the pictures. Wow. And so 467 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 3: that's what also has hair transplant from being top of 468 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 3: mind that he wanted to be transparent about his transplants, 469 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 3: and I was like, good for you, But I don't 470 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 3: think that everybody has to be open and transparent about 471 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 3: everything they've done, although that has been a thing right 472 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 3: now with like Kylie Jenner did that with her boob job. 473 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 3: Like some girl on TikTok was like, Kylie, I just 474 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 3: saw your boobs and I'm about to get a boob job, 475 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,959 Speaker 3: and I just like to know exactly what you had 476 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 3: done because they are perfect. And so Kylie just responded, Hey, 477 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 3: I got seas and triple a little bit. I don't 478 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 3: know the lingo, but she gave every detail that her 479 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 3: doctor did half under the muscle, half over, I don't know. 480 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 3: And then the girl on because the girl on TikTok 481 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 3: had gone viral and there's Kylie. Yeah, so I guess 482 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 3: she took that information and probably did a lot of 483 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 3: other people. They look really good. Uh, they took that 484 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 3: information and then they probably went to their doctor, but 485 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 3: everyone was praising the fact they thought it was so 486 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 3: cool that Kylie was just transparent about it. And yes, 487 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 3: I think it's cool to be transparent if you want 488 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,439 Speaker 3: to be, and then if you don't want to be. 489 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 3: There's also a difference between what what are you guys 490 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 3: seeing that? Well? 491 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: I just think that that becomes problematic, Like when we 492 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: were talking about like the face fitness stuff, Like if 493 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: somebody's saying, like, all I do is wash my face 494 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 1: and use this serum and I look like this and 495 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,679 Speaker 1: behind the scenes they're getting botox and filler and I've 496 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: had a facelift, That's okay, that's true. I guess I'm 497 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: talking to like the normal. 498 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, every like like we're not We're not gonna lie 499 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 3: about it. 500 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: I think there's a difference in like privacy and then 501 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: like lying. 502 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 3: Okay, they're privacy and secrecy, but what like what if 503 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 3: you did want to do something a little more drastic 504 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 3: to your face and you really it is a personal 505 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 3: decision and you don't want anybody to know, but you 506 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 3: get flat out asked by it on a public space. 507 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 3: Are you supposed to what are you supposed to do? 508 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 3: It is a personal decision. And you don't want anybody 509 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,239 Speaker 3: to know, but you get flat out asked by it 510 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 3: on a public space. Are you supposed to what are 511 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 3: you supposed to do? But you didn't want to talk 512 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 3: about it. 513 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,719 Speaker 1: I think I probably would find a way to like 514 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: answer the question but not answer it. I played the 515 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: fifth but something, you know how. I think celebrities in 516 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: general get coached on how to avoid those kinds of questions. 517 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 1: I think it becomes a problem when like you are 518 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: promoting one thing, like I'm promoting the skincare product, but 519 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 1: I didn't get this skin from this product. I got 520 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: this skin from surgery, right or something more that is problematic. 521 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: I could debate this both ways from my own mind. 522 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 3: You know, have you seen there's a plastic surgeon. I 523 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 3: don't know, he's out of la but he had a funny, little, 524 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 3: real mean thing the other day. He was filming one 525 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 3: of his colleagues who's a female plastic surgeon, and it's 526 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 3: like those the meme videos where it's like, you know, 527 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 3: she doesn't know it yet, but she's about to, you 528 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 3: know the thing. It's like a trend. Oh yeah, but 529 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 3: he doesn't know it yet, but she's about well, but 530 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 3: this one he did it with her, Well, normally they're inspiring. 531 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: Oh, I get the depressing one, the one she doesn't 532 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: know yet, but she's about to like touch the seashell 533 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: and become paralyzed.

I get the like she doesn't know it yet, 536 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 3: but she's about to embark on the greatest journey and 537 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 3: like ever in her life is going to change. She's 538 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 3: going to meet the man of her dreams. 539 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: Mind's like, she doesn't know it yet, but her she's 540 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: gonna walk in on her boyfriend cheating on her. 541 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 3: Oh god, I've like she doesn't know it yet, but 542 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 3: she's about to score a perfect you know gray on 543 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 3: this test and then become a world renowned doctor. Yeah. 544 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 1: I haven't seen that. 545 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 3: You have. 546 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: What is giving me this stuff? 547 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. That's interesting. 548 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: Okay. 549 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 3: So his was funny but also sad because he's like, 550 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 3: she doesn't know yet, but she's about to go perform 551 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 3: a facelift on an influencer that two months later it 552 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 3: is going to claim that to her followers that her 553 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 3: face is this way because of Guasha. Yes, and she's 554 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 3: going to sell some Guasha tool to like all of 555 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 3: her followers and like not disclose. So that's what I 556 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 3: think you're talking about, Like that is a problem. But 557 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 3: I guess if someone doesn't want to say like me 558 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 3: even thinking, like in your friend group, like say you 559 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 3: choose to have something done and you show up and 560 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 3: your friends are like, huh, something looks different, like did 561 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 3: you get something done? 562 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: Like what do you do? 563 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 3: If you're like you don't want your friends to know. 564 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: What do you say and you don't tell them? I 565 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: guess but you say, oh, I just I got a 566 00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:00,959 Speaker 1: lot of rest sleep, does wonders? Oh, oh, you know, 567 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 1: you know, drinking lots of water. I went to the sauna. Yeah, yeah, 568 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: that's tough. I don't think there there's a blanket answer 569 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: for that. 570 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 3: Because I think I'm trying to be private about it. 571 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: How if you're trying to be private, then I guess 572 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 1: that's your prerogative. I would be curious of why wouldn't 573 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: you want your close friends to know that if you 574 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: don't think there's anything wrong with it. 575 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 3: M okay, so fine, it could be your close friends. 576 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 1: So that's but then, but not everybody needs to know 577 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. I think that you're right, there's 578 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: not everybody needs to know that you go to therapy, 579 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 1: what you talk about in therapy. Not everybody needs to 580 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: know like why you look that way, what medical procedures 581 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: you've done. Not everybody needs to know that. But I 582 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: think I would ask, I am getting something like botox, 583 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: Why wouldn't I want somebody to know that. That means 584 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 1: that to me, there might be something in there that's 585 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 1: shame around it. 586 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 3: Or or they don't want to feel if or maybe your. 587 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: Friends don't like it and your friends are going to 588 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: judge you for it, Then like I get that, and 589 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: maybe we need to have a conversation with those friends. 590 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, find if you want your friends to be supportive, 591 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 3: but you don't have to like go find totally new friends. 592 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: Yes I didn't mean that, but I actually do understand that, 593 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: Like if there's somebody that you know there would be 594 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: very judgmental and you wouldn't want their opinion, then like 595 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 1: I get not feeling uneasy about that. And that's where 596 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 1: that like secrecy and privacy stuff comes in. 597 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 3: Like the difference And we've talked about this too before 598 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 3: with Brene Brown said about the vulnerability. I think you're 599 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 3: the one that quoted her, I can't remember the exact quote. 600 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 3: Maybe if I start talking about it, it'll jog you 601 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 3: your memory. But like some people will hear, oh, I 602 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 3: need to be more vulnerable, and so that means I 603 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 3: think they need to put it all out there for 604 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 3: everybody on social media. 605 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: It's like manufactured vulnerability, right. 606 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 3: But being vulnerable doesn't mean telling the whole world, not 607 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 3: in all of your things. 608 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: It's not information like vulnerability is in relationship with people. 609 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: Vulnerability is me sharing something with you and there's uncertainty 610 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: in it, not me posting something in order to get 611 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: a reaction. Makes sense. 612 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, shout out Joe McHale for his vulnerability and 613 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 3: transparent about his transplants because he does that. Yeah. I 614 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 3: feel like we're we're constantly having to as women. When 615 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 3: you talk about the wheel that we're on, it's like 616 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 3: we have to if we want to step off. There's 617 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 3: unlearning that has to happen. Yeah, I mean that's what 618 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 3: it re establish like what we want and that's. 619 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: Hard and what do I actually believe versus what have 620 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: I've been taught to believe? Yeah, that is some of 621 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: the hardest work that I do with people in therapy. 622 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 3: We have for everybody a little choose your heart. It's 623 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 3: like choose your adventure, choose your hard So Kat and 624 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 3: are going to go back and forth on what it's hard, 625 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 3: because re establishing is hard. On learning is hard. Not 626 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 3: having money for retirement is hard. So assessing where you're 627 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 3: spending it and trying to put some money away because 628 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 3: we're not getting any younger around here. 629 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: But not doing all of the things that you're used 630 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: to doing that make you feel good is hard. 631 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 3: That's hard, Yeah, letting go of that stuff. And I 632 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 3: will say, yes, I really really struggled with no Botoks. 633 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 3: But if I do decide to go back to it, 634 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 3: I feel like I'll feel more excited or empowered about it. 635 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 3: I know exactly what doing, I know why I'm doing it, 636 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 3: and I'm gonna know like that I want this amount 637 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,239 Speaker 3: maybe TBD, maybe I do something else. I don't know. 638 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 3: I have some things to think about. This is inspired 639 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 3: by an article that I saw in Harvard What is 640 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 3: that from Harvard Health? Harwood? 641 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: What is that from? 642 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 3: I don't know? I like it it is. It is 643 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 3: a famous movie quote. But all I can think about 644 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 3: is in Legally Blonde and she's like, what, like it's hard. 645 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, it actually is. Yeah, it's hard. Uh ha. 646 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 2: Shoot. 647 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 3: I know people are listening right now and they're like, 648 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 3: we know exactly what that is.

But I just thought it paints 674 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 3: a good picture of like, this is hard, and then 675 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 3: what you were saying was the opposite, and it's like, 676 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 3: but that's also hard.

But also ignoring it and being ignorant to 692 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 3: it and just spending blindly, how that would be really hard, 693 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 3: Having anxiety, getting a lump in my throat every time 694 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 3: I had to talk about finances because I felt so 695 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 3: overwhelmed by it. That was hard. Yeah, you know what's 696 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 3: good now is like I can log in and look 697 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 3: at spreadsheets and look at numbers and go to my 698 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 3: Rocket money app and I know exactly where everything's going 699 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 3: and I can open it up without getting a lump 700 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 3: in my throat, Whereas I used to get a lump, 701 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 3: and it was just because I was completely detached from it. 702 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 3: I didn't even give myself the opportunity. I was too 703 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 3: there's too much fear there and I had spent so 704 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 3: many years avoiding it. So stepping into that was hard, 705 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 3: But which is harder continuing to live that way? So 706 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 3: choose your hard.

We're 983 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 3: playing around with some stuff just as a way to, 984 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 3: you know, spread spread the news, Spread the news, and 985 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 3: so maybe you can find something new to listen to 986 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,839 Speaker 3: or someone new to follow on Instagram and see if 987 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 3: any of their stuff resonates with you. Email of the 988 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 3: day this, Oh do we not know who it's from? Oh? 989 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 3: We do? 990 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: And she said we could say her name? 991 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 3: Okay, Kat, We'll look that up while I read it. 992 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 3: Love the show, Kat and Amy is so glad you 993 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:46,919 Speaker 3: are doing this together. It makes me laugh. I learn 994 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 3: a lot and love seeing two friends shine together. I 995 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 3: heard the episode you did where you mentioned Megan Markle 996 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,360 Speaker 3: sending emails to her kids. I wanted to share an 997 00:46:55,440 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 3: alternate idea. I hate buying B Day, Anniversary, ECCE or carts. 998 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 3: I hate trying to keep them so that I can 999 00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 3: look back at them when I know I probably won't. 1000 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,399 Speaker 3: I'd rather take that five to seven dollars and add 1001 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 3: it to the gift. So when my husband and I 1002 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 3: got married, I found two nine dollars journals at home Goods, 1003 00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 3: one for each of us. Every Birthday, Christmas, Valentine's Day, 1004 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 3: and anniversary. We write our own card to each other 1005 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 3: in the journal. Romantically, I want someone to find these 1006 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 3: journals when we're long gone and turn them into a 1007 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 3: Hallmark movie. Well, the beginning of our marriage may be more. 1008 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 1: PG. 1009 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,799 Speaker 3: Thirteen smiley face probably. 1010 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 1: Are That's what I was thinking. 1011 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 3: Just kidding. I've gone back to read the entries and 1012 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 3: it's beautiful to see our relationship evolve over the years. 1013 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 3: This has been so special to us that while we 1014 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 3: weren't able to have kids, I have gotten a journal 1015 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:57,800 Speaker 3: for each of our three nephews and niece. Every birthday, 1016 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:00,359 Speaker 3: I write a note to them. It won't be an 1017 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,680 Speaker 3: overwhelming amount to read when they get older, but I 1018 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 3: hope to encapsulate their personalities and stories through it and 1019 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 3: maybe pass on some things I've learned. Just thought this 1020 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 3: might be helpful and less overwhelming idea than the emails. 1021 00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 3: And Kat and I both love this idea so much, 1022 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 3: and I think it's so great for couples. I'm really 1023 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 3: really into it. And then you have it there and 1024 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:23,920 Speaker 3: it's like. 1025 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,280 Speaker 1: These, I'm going to buy two journals. 1026 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 3: I can't wait to work Patrick. Okay, did you get 1027 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 3: her name? 1028 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:33,520 Speaker 1: Heidi? Heidi? Thanks Heidi.

Mean, I have cards everywhere because 1030 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,640 Speaker 1: feel bad throwing them out. But then I'm like, am 1031 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 1: I going to go back and go through? Maybe I 1032 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,200 Speaker 1: don't know, but a journal seems much easier to keep 1033 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:47,520 Speaker 1: up with. And it's speaking of finances financially savvy. 1034 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
