All right, Now, go ahead and leave 11 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: your question at the sound of the beeB. 12 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 2: Hey, Cheeky's, I first want to start off by saying, 13 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 2: I love you, and I love your family. I grew 14 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 2: up listening to your mom's music and I still listen 15 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 2: to your music to this day, and I love your 16 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 2: music as well and everything your family does. My question 17 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 2: for day is how do you keep the spark alive 18 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 2: when you're far away from your partner like long distance? 19 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 2: Thank you? 20 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: Well, well, well, my anonymous listener, that's a toughie, not 21 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: gonna lie, especially because I'm the type of person that 22 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: I want my partner near me. I like my alone time, 23 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: but I want the hugs and the kisses, and you 24 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean. I'm very affectionate, so long distance 25 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: has never really been my thing. So I hope I 26 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: can give you the best advice. One time I had 27 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: a long distance relationship and he was in Iraq, actually, 28 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: and that was tough. The damn phone bill came out 29 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: to like six thousand dollars. MoMA wanted to choke me. 30 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: It was crazy. So that's a whole other story, but 31 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: it is hard. I think that where there is a will, 32 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: there's a way, And that sounds very cliche, better get it. 33 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: And I think that if you guys are both on 34 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: the same page and do the best to FaceTime, thank goodness, 35 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: we can do FaceTime. There's zoom, there's all kinds of stuff, 36 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,239 Speaker 1: But like it's really at the tip of our fingertips 37 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: now with our phones, where you could just be adamant 38 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: and intentional about, hey, let's get on, you know, on 39 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: a FaceTime today, let's have phone sex. You know what 40 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: I mean. That's important. Like even though you guys are far, 41 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: it's like, hey, let's put your phone and I'll put 42 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 1: my phone. I'll put on something sexy for you, and 43 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: you need to do things that maybe you're not as 44 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: comfortable with and outside of the box so that you 45 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: guys can keep that spark going. But I think it's 46 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: even like sending little pictures, you know, maybe not put 47 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: your face in it, but like booby pictures or like, 48 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, all that little cute stuff 49 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: is nice. And even sending him a little package of 50 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: something like hey, like his favorite something like just a 51 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: random card saying hey, I appreciate you even though you're far, 52 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 1: I love you, I miss you. Just coming up with 53 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: different ideas and he should do the same. You should 54 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: also communicate with him so that he's sending you flowers randomly. 55 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: It's all about munication and that's what I do in 56 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: my relationship. I'm like, hey, I like flowers, and so 57 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: he brings me flowers for the past two years once 58 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: a week at least, or chocolates. It's like I like 59 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: to be conquistada, like I want you to romance me. 60 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: So you have to definitely communicate with your partner, and 61 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: you can't be upset if he's not doing it because 62 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: you're not communicating and you're not telling him. So it 63 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: goes both ways. So yeah, girls say sexy picture right now? 64 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 3: Mm hmm. 65 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: All right, So our next question comes from Vanessa. 66 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 4: Hi Cheeky's. I just want to start off by saying 67 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 4: thank you for having this segment on your podcast. I 68 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 4: think it's a really cool way for you to interact 69 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 4: with your fans and for us to interact with you. 70 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 4: My question for you is how do I stop attracting 71 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,839 Speaker 4: the same type of guys? I was in a long 72 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 4: term relationship for eight and a half years, but it 73 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 4: was really mentally and emotionally abusive to me. We decided 74 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 4: to finally call the quits almost about a year ago, 75 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 4: and I'm fine at that point where I'm ready to start, 76 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 4: you know, the dating scene. I've been to dipping my 77 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 4: toes in a little bit, but I've noticed that I'm 78 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 4: attracting a lot of the same type of guys with 79 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 4: the same red flags as my ex. So I don't 80 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 4: know what's what's your thought on that? 81 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: Well, Vanessa, thank you. It makes me feel so happy 82 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,359 Speaker 1: that you're loving dear Cheeky's. It makes me feel so 83 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: close to you guys, and I love doing this, so 84 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: so thank you for that. As far as your question, Okay, 85 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: so As soon as I heard it, I was like, damn, 86 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: been there, been there girl. 87 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 5: Ugh. 88 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: And you know what what I learned was that I'm 89 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: attracting and I was attracting. I was it's a big 90 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: word here. I was attracting the same type of guys. 91 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: But because I was not learning my lesson, I didn't 92 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: heal a certain part of my life or a certain 93 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: part of myself. So I kept it, kept recurring, it 94 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: kept appearing again in my life, that same type of 95 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: relationship because I had a codependency. I needed to be needed. 96 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: And what did that do? Then? It would bring unhealed 97 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: people to me so that I can heal them. And 98 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: that's not what a relationship is all about, you know 99 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: what I mean. So in your situation, it's good that 100 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 1: it seems like you've taken some time for yourself to 101 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: just say, Okay, now I'm kind of ready to, like, 102 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: you know, dip my toes into the dating scene. But 103 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: I think you're also being smart with not just falling 104 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: into the same type of relationship for the sake of 105 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: not being alone. I think you should just need to 106 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: be patient. And I think sometimes we get so fixated 107 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: on the type of person that we want as far 108 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: as like maybe physically that we're not looking outside like 109 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: instead of this is the person I want? Is what 110 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: do I need? Asking the universe, asking God the type 111 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: of person that I need to be the best version 112 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: of myself and to bring a healed person into your 113 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: life so that both of you are on the same 114 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: frequency of one to be the best versions of yourself, 115 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: to come together, because that's what a relationship is. It's 116 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: just two people coming together and becoming one, but also 117 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: always respecting each other's individuality. So what I suggest is 118 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: for you to write down exactly the type of guy 119 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: that you would want, but at the end of it, 120 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: be like, God, Universe, send me who I need. And 121 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: I'm telling you instead of looking at is it a 122 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: bad thing? I think you're very smart for saying, huh, 123 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: I see red flags. That's smart. That's already you protecting 124 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: yourself from falling into the same thing. But keep using 125 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: this time by yourself to heal, to do therapy, to 126 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: read books, to really you become what you want to attract, 127 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: heal whatever you need to heal, if it's jealousy, if 128 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: it's insecurities, if whatever it may be, be like, I 129 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: want to be a more confident person, a more confident woman. 130 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: I don't want to be jealous. I want to know 131 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: that my partner is not my property. He is a 132 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: part of my life. My mom would say he's the dessert, 133 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: he's not the full course meal, you know what I mean. 134 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: So think about it that way, and so heal yourself. 135 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: And then once you are ready and the universe feels 136 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: that you're ready and you are the person that you 137 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: want to attract, then you're gonna attract the person for you, 138 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: even if he's a little shorter than you wanted, you 139 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Even if you're like I want 140 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: a six foot two dude, and even if he's five seven, 141 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: it's all good, girl shoo. I never thought like a 142 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: meal's kind of short, and I always wanted to tell 143 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: the guy. But you know what, he's a sweet guy 144 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: and I love him and he treats me good. So 145 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: sometimes you just got to like give and take. You 146 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: feel me, So, Vanessa, I hope I helped you. Okay, 147 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: good luck with that baby, pray on it. I'm gonna 148 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: be praying for you too. Okay. So our next question 149 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: comes from Amy. 150 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 5: Hey, what's that cheeky? It's your girl aiming calling you 151 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 5: from Boston, Massachusetts. I was looking for some advice. I 152 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 5: know that you've dated men that are also artists, just 153 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 5: like you, and I'm sure that once your relationship starts, 154 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 5: you notice that a lot of the things that they 155 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 5: do are similar to things that you do, and people 156 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 5: tend to merge both of you together. But how do 157 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 5: you keep your own identity? My husband and I are 158 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 5: both in the fitness industry and we do everything exactly 159 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,119 Speaker 5: the same. But sometimes I want to have my own 160 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 5: things going on because I feel like I'm losing my 161 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 5: own identity. And sometimes when I speak to my husband 162 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 5: about that, I can tell that his feelings get hurt. 163 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 6: Do you have any advice on how I can still 164 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 6: keep my own identity without hurting anybody's feelings. Also, I 165 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 6: just want to tell you now that I've been watching 166 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 6: you since season one of I love Jenny, and thank 167 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 6: you for growing up with me being the firstborn female 168 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 6: in a Hispanic family and all the pressure that comes 169 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 6: with them. 170 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god, Amy, you're gonna make me cry. I 171 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: don't want to hug you right now. Well, shout out 172 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: to Boston. I like Boston. Oh my gosh, my heart. Okay, 173 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: so thank you for watching I Love Jenny and for 174 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: growing up with me, and I totally understand. It's a lot. 175 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: I used to feel very upset about it, about being 176 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: like the firstborn and having to be the example. It's 177 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: just so much freaking pressure. But now I'm like, it's 178 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: a blessing and I'm so grateful. So I feel you, girl, 179 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: I feel you. As far as your question, I love 180 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: your question. Oh my gosh, it's hard. It's hard. I 181 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: did date and marry someone that is also an artist, 182 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: and at first it was very cool. It's like, oh 183 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: my god, he understands me my schedule and like we 184 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: get it, and it was cool. And then later on 185 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: it just started becoming an issue, you know, because yeah, 186 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: I think he felt like he was living in my world. 187 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,719 Speaker 1: It was all about me, and I don't know, it's 188 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: just I feel like he started resenting me in a way. 189 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: I could be wrong. These are just my ideas and 190 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: how I feel. Things change, but it was very, very tough, 191 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: and because of that experience, I told myself that I'm 192 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: gonna just stay away from artists, you know. So I'm 193 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: not telling you to break up with your boyfriend. That's 194 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: not what I'm telling you, or better yet, you're your husband. 195 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: I'm not telling you to divorce him or anything like that. 196 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: I think you guys can make it work. I think 197 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: that the fact that you're communicating that to him is 198 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: a good thing, and he needs to be a little 199 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: bit more open to it. And I think little by little, 200 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: mentioning it more and more, and you expressing that it's 201 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: okay not to do everything together. And that's a mistake 202 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: that I did in my past. I felt like I 203 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: wanted my husband to be with me everywhere, and it's like, no, 204 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 1: he's his own individual. He's an artist himself, you know 205 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: what I mean. And it's like I want him to 206 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: be with me everywhere, and it's like no, it's two 207 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: worlds coming together. And you guys can do the same 208 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: exact thing, but you need space. So I think just 209 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 1: explaining that to him, it's like I love you. It 210 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that I love you any less. I love 211 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 1: you very much, and in order to save this relationship, 212 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: I need to feel like I'm doing my own thing 213 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: and I want you to allow me and I don't 214 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: want to feel controlled. Maybe for him it's he doesn't 215 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: he loves you so much. He doesn't want to lose you, 216 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: so he wants you to be there all the time 217 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: and let's do everything together. And that's beautiful, especially if 218 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: a man wants to do that. But we do need 219 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: our breathing space, to miss each other, to want to 220 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: be around each other, to have more and different conversations. 221 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: If you're doing everything together Sevan and Pallaar, it's going 222 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: to become too much, you know what I mean, Like 223 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: it's going to become too much. So I would just 224 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: suggest keep talking to him and always say it in 225 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: a nice, loving way. Maybe some couple's therapy will help 226 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: you express it to him and someone else will better 227 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: explain it. A mediator that always helps. Couple's therapy is 228 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: amazing and I highly recommend it, especially if you guys 229 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: have been together for a long time. Sometimes you lose 230 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: the communication between each other and it just becomes more 231 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: difficult throughout the years or easier. But I highly suggest that, 232 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: and I really feel that you guys can make it work. 233 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: Needs to be a little bit more open to it 234 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: and not get his feelings hurt. That's super important for 235 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: him to give you that breathing space and you give 236 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 1: it to him. 237 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 5: Too. 238 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: Maybe he'll appreciate it as well. It'll make your relationship stronger. 239 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: So I'm curious to hear the update. Amy let us know. Okay, 240 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: thank you so much for your question, and I'm sending 241 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: you a big hug, big sister. Okay, so our last 242 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: question comes from Richard Hi Jikiz. 243 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 3: I was thinking about going back to school, but I 244 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: have a partner and that doesn't work because of his 245 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 3: heart problem, and I was wondering what to do at 246 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 3: this point. 247 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: Hi, Richard, so I wish I had a little bit 248 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 1: more information, But it sounds like you're probably taking care 249 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 1: of things financially, which makes it a little bit more 250 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: difficult for you to go to school. And then your 251 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: partner because he has a heart conditioned pant work. I 252 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: don't know if you take care of him financially, but regardless, 253 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: I think that I am one to always push education 254 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: no matter how old you are. If you want to 255 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: do something at fifty eight and you want to go 256 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: back to school, I'm like the first one to say 257 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 1: do it. But I think you're being a wonderful partner 258 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: first of all, if you're there taking care of your partner, 259 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: and I think that's the support that he needs. But 260 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: you also can't forget about yourself because then you're going 261 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: to resent your partner. I think maybe finding a part 262 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: time job and going to school at night, or vice versa. 263 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: I definitely think that there is a way and maybe 264 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: your partner being open to finding a job that doesn't 265 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: necessarily require him to leave his home or her home. 266 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a hear or her. I'm 267 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: so sorry, but you know what I mean. It could 268 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 1: be remote, it could be I mean, there are so 269 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: many like even like telemarketing jobs that they could be 270 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: at home, and your partner has to be open to saying, hey, 271 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: like I want to go back to school. Can you 272 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: support me in this dream. You have to talk to 273 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,599 Speaker 1: your partner and let them know what you're feeling, you 274 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: know what I mean, because you don't want to resent them, 275 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: and they have to be open to possibly finding a 276 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: job that suits their lifestyle and what they can do. 277 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: So that's my suggestion. I know it's breaking your heart 278 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 1: because I could hear it in your voice. So I 279 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: am sending you a big, warm hug, and I hope 280 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: things get better. But I think it is important that 281 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: you express this and just say hey, I'm feeling a 282 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: little suppressed. I'm feeling a little bit you know, limited, 283 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: and I need you to help me. This is my desire. 284 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: Can you support me in this? What can we do? 285 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: Can I help you find a job? You know what 286 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: I mean? So I hope that helps Richard. Thank you 287 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: so much, you guys, your questions were awesome.
