1 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: Hey guys, and welcome back to another week of geodiaries. 2 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: I am so excited that I was able to announce 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: Special Forces. I am going to be on season four 4 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: of Special Forces Me and my mom. I was so 5 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: excited to do this experience with my mom because it's 6 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: not every day that you get to say that you 7 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: have done some of the craziest tasks and challenges with 8 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 1: your mom. This is definitely an experience that I will 9 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: hold very close to my heart and remember forever that 10 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: I was able to do this with her. The cast 11 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: was absolutely amazing. We are such a bonded family. Now 12 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: we are seriously so close. We don't have access to 13 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: our phones, so you are really getting to know everyone 14 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: so well. Everyone was so amazing. We were all there 15 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: for each other and I can't wait to see everybody 16 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: when we film the reunion. Yes we're filming the reunion 17 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: for Special Forces, but we're having our own reunion after 18 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: we seriously got so close. And this show was the 19 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: most challenging thing that I have ever done in my life, 20 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 1: but it also has changed my life. I have gained 21 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: such a greater appreciation for our military after doing this show. 22 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: They really are sacrificing their lives every day to keep 23 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:40,479 Speaker 1: us safe. So the appreciation for them is bigger than 24 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: words can describe. The DS were incredible. They were such 25 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: a pleasure to work with, as much as they were 26 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: screaming in my face. They were my biggest motivators. So 27 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: you guys know, I love health and wellness and it's 28 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: a big part of my life. So leading up to 29 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: Special Forces, I was in Italy for my cousin's wedding, 30 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: so I was eating pasta every day, freaking out that 31 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: I was about to leave for Africa to go on 32 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 1: Special Forces. I was like, I'm going to die. I've 33 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: been eating pasta every day. But thank god, Italy contains 34 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: a lot of walking, so I was walking everywhere, climbing 35 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: up hills. I definitely was getting my cardio in, maybe 36 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: not the right way I should have been getting my 37 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: cardio in. Then I came home. I had like a 38 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: week before leaving for Special Forces, and I just ate 39 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: so clean. Then we got to Africa. We were in 40 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: Morocco and the food was just not my cup of tea. 41 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: So I started dropping weight. The second I got to Morocco. 42 00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: I just couldn't find anything that I really liked, so 43 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: that was definitely one of the bigger challenges for me, 44 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: and I just fueled myself by eating a lot of 45 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: fruits and vegetables. Breakfast was my favorite meal because you 46 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: can't really screw up breakfast and it was definitely a 47 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: crazy experience. So my manager approached me with the idea 48 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: Fox reached out to them about having my mom and 49 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: I on. I think it was a no brainer. I 50 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: really just thought to myself, when will I ever be 51 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: able to do something like this ever again with my mom? 52 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: Even if she leaves the first day, or even if 53 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: I leave the second day, We're still going to experience 54 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: things that we would never experience if we didn't go 55 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: on the show. So it did take a lot of convincing. 56 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: My mom was absolutely terrid. I wasn't that scared. I've 57 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: been skydiving before. I'm pretty fearless when it comes to heights, 58 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: so I'm a good swimmer. My mom is not a 59 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: good swimmer, so she was absolutely terrified. But we are 60 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: both so happy that we did it. So we did 61 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: not know the cast list before we went. It was 62 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: actually so funny. We were at our last hotel before 63 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: going to the campsite or no campsite before going to base. 64 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: The DS will kill me if I if they hear 65 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: me say campsite. It was a full blown base and 66 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: so yeah, we once we were at our last hotel, 67 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: we were kind of seeing people, but the producers and 68 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: everyone really did not want us interacting at all until 69 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: we got to base. So we had to do some 70 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: training before getting to base, just to make sure that 71 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: we were fully prepared for what was to come. And 72 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: as my mom and I were laying by the pool, 73 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I see Brianna walk by and 74 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: I took my sunglasses off. I was like Brianna and 75 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: we both were so happy. I would say, out of 76 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: the whole cast, Brianna and I definitely got the closest 77 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: throughout this show. I could not have done it without her. 78 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,239 Speaker 1: We really motivated each other and stuck it through together. 79 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: And she's amazing. She's one of my friends for life. 80 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: You know. Some of the guys on the cast that 81 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:43,119 Speaker 1: were amazing and really motivated me were Andrew Randall, Eric 82 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: They really were so amazing, Johnny Ough and then you 83 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: can't forget about Nick. I can't even name one person 84 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: that I really did not get along with. On this cast, 85 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: there were definitely some people that would get under your 86 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: skin a little bit, and you guys will see that 87 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: on the show. And I mean, you guys have all 88 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: been talking about him already, so I'm sure you could 89 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: assume who it is. But the rest of the cast 90 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: was really amazing. Everyone was so strong, so motivating, and 91 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: I think we all motivated each other in some way, 92 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: and I would say we were a really strong team. 93 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, when I saw Brianna, we were both so happy. 94 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: It was so nice just to see a familiar face. Obviously, 95 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: my mom knew Jesse from Dancing with the Stars. Eva 96 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 1: is on Atlanta Housewives, so my mom was happy to 97 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: see somebody else in the Bravo world. So it was 98 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: honestly really fun to kind of connect the dots of 99 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 1: the whole cast once we all met each other. It 100 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: was really funny because me, Brihanna, and Mark were the 101 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: three influencers on the cast, and we were surrounded by 102 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: NFL players, NBA players, Olympic soccer players. We had some 103 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: competition and it was honestly such a motivating experience. We 104 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: all motivated each other. Everybody on the cast was so amazing. 105 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: We were all there for each other so much, and 106 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: we all pushed each other to our limits. As much 107 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: as it is an individually based competition show, we were 108 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: such a team. I was also the youngest on this 109 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: cast of Special Forces, so I kind of felt like 110 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: everyone was looking out for me like a little sister, 111 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: which was really nice. Also, I just feel like Special 112 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: Forces is such a rewarding show. You are really experiencing 113 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: real life moments that our military goes through, and you 114 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: actually feel just a glimpse of what they sacrifice every day. 115 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: This was one of the most amazing experiences I've ever 116 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: done in my life. Yeah, as much as I love 117 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: Next Gen, this was just something different. So I can't 118 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: wait for you guys to see me on Special Forces. Okay, guys, 119 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: And that was it for this week of Geodiaries.
