Okay. 34 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: So we were talking last week and I think what 35 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: I kind of wanted to start with because a similar 36 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: situation had happened again last week. Um where it's frustrating 37 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 1: because we're jumping right into it now that I have 38 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: me and for my best girlfriends and you're the only 39 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: husbandman here. Let's just get right. No, no, no, I'm not. 40 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: This is not to be like a husband basher, like 41 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: we just want to all talk about it, right for sure. 42 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: So ladies, so I'm gonna take it from you and 43 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: four other wives.

But I think one of the things that 46 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: has been frustrating during the quarantine is I feel like 47 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: I'm constantly picking up stuff and doing the dishes and 48 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: doing the kids laundry and folding him and putting him 49 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: away like a steep freezing.

Like the reason our 104 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: babies have napped so well was because I take pride 105 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: in the fact and I give credit where credits due. 106 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: There's no question. All of my friends that are having kids, 107 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: I'm look, have your wife talked to Jane because she's like, 108 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: unreal at it? And I've always followed the schedule. I'm 109 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: right there with it. I'm on it, Okay. I never 110 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: try to bend it or change it or anything like that. Yeah, 111 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: I know exactly where you're going, you know. But then 112 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: a random day comes and I'm looking at the clock. 113 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: I'm like, mmm, it's like, uh, you know, six fifteen, 114 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: weren't bats going? Like, what's going on? Why we're waiting? 115 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: And Jane's like, they can stay up a little later. 116 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: We're hanging out, we're doing this, Jason's cuddling on me. 117 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to, and that's fine, Janna. If Janna 118 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: moves the schedule, it's totally fine. If I moved the schedule. Mike, 119 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: it's six fifteen. Why are they not in the bath 120 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: right now? You know they have to go down by 121 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 1: six thirty. You should be reading books right now that 122 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: he should be bath, diaper on, everything done. Why aren't 123 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: you doing that. But if it's okay, because when it 124 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: comes to the sleep, I feel like she put all 125 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: the effort in. It's kind of like it's on her 126 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: to be able to mess it up. But Mike, you 127 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: just totally justified what I just said, at least like 128 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: like waiting for Janna to tell you what he does, 129 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: and you did. Kids. I love them. You look at 130 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: your watch and you're like, oh, Janna, like they don't 131 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: like it's six fifteen, Joey, Jason, let's go. We're getting like, 132 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: why do you why does Janna have to be banned? 133 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: Oh my god, yes, no, but it's so true. Why 134 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: does the wife have to be the one like, Okay, no, 135 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: you don't have it's it's the only time because Janna knows. 136 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: I'm very on with everything else. He's an incredible dad. 137 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: I don't sway from the schedule. I'm on it. So 138 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: if it's six fifteen and we haven't discussed who's getting 139 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: here or whatever, I just take the kids and I 140 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: start going okay. And that's how you take the initiative, 141 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: the initiative. No, no, no, no, I take the initiative 142 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: equally with Jenna. Yeah, I'm just talking about if we're 143 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: separate or whatever, and just the schedule happens to to 144 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: leak into something because maybe I'm I'm working or doing 145 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: something that I have to work on in Janna has 146 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: the kids and I come out, it's past the time 147 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: that they should be in their bath. And I'm like, 148 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: if I were to do this and Janna was doing 149 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: some work and she comes out and the kids weren't 150 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: you know in bass yet, that she would be like 151 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: and it's it's so interesting because it's true and I 152 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: and I don't know why it's why. Maybe it's just 153 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: me that I make an exception, like because I like, 154 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: how can I bend the rules but he can't? Now 155 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: it's I'm more lenient. But when the babies, it was 156 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: I was so strict on it. So but then if 157 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: he didn't, But if I been it and you know, 158 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: then he would be like, well I don't, and he 159 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: would get so upset with me about it. And I 160 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: get it, Like I can look back now and say 161 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: you're right, Like, I like, how is it fair for 162 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: me to bend it and you not to bend it? 163 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 1: So I don't know, Like I mean, double standards exist. 164 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: I am totally getting this right, now too. I never 165 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: realized that I do that too, But it's the same thing. 166 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's because we wake up well, 167 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: I know you guys have a different schedule, but like 168 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: typically the mom's getting up with the kids in the morning, 169 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: we're getting like we're thinking so far ahead, and I 170 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: think to that point is what it is is it's 171 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 1: like the husbands aren't thinking okay, like Jen, if you're 172 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: sitting there watching TV and you're like, all right, you 173 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: know what, the kids can watch three more minutes of 174 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: TV whatever. One We don't want to be the bad 175 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: guy again to say, hey, guys, wrap it up, let's 176 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: go upstairs, like dad, you'll be a bad guy. But also, 177 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,599 Speaker 1: since we slept trained them, don't we get to just 178 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: kind of make the rolls up so then tomorrow the 179 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: kids will think we're fun. Mom and dad. You can 180 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: crack the whip on them if we've like I feel like, 181 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: if we're with the kids a lot of the day 182 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 1: now now obviously it's different because everybody's schedules are at 183 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: home or whatever, like and also kind of read like, okay, 184 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: like are the kids overly tired? Are they not? Or 185 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: like the next day you know, like if you have 186 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: a lot going on, Like for me, it's more like 187 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: if you have a lot going on the next day, 188 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, get to bed. But if not, then 189 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm kind of like, you know, I don't know, like 190 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: and I agree though it is such a double standard 191 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: in a negative way, kind of like for the moms, 192 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: because I agree. I think sometimes we give too much, 193 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 1: like oh, you guys can't do it, when no, you can. 194 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: And if we did it, we wouldn't say anything. Even 195 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: if you judge the husband's judged us, then we all 196 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: know we would lose our minds because that's just what 197 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: we do, which is not good either. But I kind 198 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: of want to ask because I feel like we have 199 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: some interesting dynamics here in different situations within the home 200 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: as far as like two working parents or stay at 201 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: home mom or whatever. Isn't there just a primary parent though, 202 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: like even if you have, like I guess it's it's 203 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: more of a question, but I feel like the answer 204 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: is kind of yes, there's there's one parent. That's just 205 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: more on it just takes more ownership of I disagree 206 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: that my situation, even in our situation, who were essentially 207 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: like to stay at home parents and do a lot 208 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: of things fairly equally. There there are things that I 209 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: admittedly Janna just steps up and and does and I 210 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: think most of moms are that way right. If it 211 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: wasn't for Janna, you know, Jolly wouldn't be enrolled in 212 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: the ballet class and this and that and whatever. Now, 213 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: if I was a single dad, of God forbid, we're 214 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: divorced and I had to do things, I would step 215 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: up and do it. But you guys tend to do 216 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: that before us, because you do do ten things at once, 217 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 1: and you can do that, where for us we'd have 218 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: to sit down. Okay, I'm going to search for dance 219 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: ballet studios. Let's go by that time, you guys would 220 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: already have have them scheduled three times a week and 221 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: what time. So, yes, I do believe that there's a 222 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: primary parent, but I do think that people have ee 223 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: month appointment that came. But it's I think you divvy 224 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: up responsibilities. Now. I kind of give into some crap 225 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: around that sometimes because she'll complain, you know, when we're 226 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: at in a bad space about doing the kids laundries 227 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: or doing this or doing that. I'm like, okay, well 228 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: if you do that and you complain about it, And 229 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 1: if I did that, then what would you do? If 230 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 1: you complain about everything that you do, and because I 231 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 1: don't do it, then all of a sudden, I'm doing 232 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: all of it and you're not doing anything. So I'm like, 233 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: there there's a balance. There's a balance there. Like I 234 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: know Janna takes the reins on the kids laundry. She 235 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: just she just owns it. And you know what, I 236 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: could probably do more of it. I think maybe it 237 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: comes down to, like, maybe not primary parent, but who's 238 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: like the manager, right, because there can still be a 239 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: balance of tasks, but who at the end of the 240 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: day is really like the manager of it. Because so 241 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: we have an interesting dynamic in that I had a 242 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: career obviously before I had my daughter, before we had 243 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: her daughter, and then I stayed at home with her 244 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 1: for two years and then I went back to work 245 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: hard time, like thirty hours a week. So we kind 246 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,719 Speaker 1: of went through the transition of like stay at home 247 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: mom for two years and working mostly part time mom 248 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: and now for a load mom. But I think what 249 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: was interesting is like even through all of that, sure 250 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: some of the responsibilities shifted slightly, but I would say 251 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: I still held the role of manager for like the 252 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: family and like our team, right which is fine. It's 253 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: like to your point, Mike, like I'm happy doing a 254 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: lot of it and my husband appreciates it, and I think, 255 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: you know, like we're in a good place there. But 256 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: I just think it defaults to that, and I think 257 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: that's kind of what it comes down to in this conversation, 258 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: Like you look to the manager and it's like okay 259 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: for the manager to say, Hey, we're gonna stay up 260 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: twenty minutes later tonight. And that's not to say that 261 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: like that doesn't happen with my husband some nights where 262 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: he makes that call, because again, we're kind of more 263 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: in a balanced place right now, just because I was 264 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: working now again, So I just I think it's I 265 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: don't mind it as much, and I think every family 266 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: is unique, but I do think that you almost need 267 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: that role of man manager because you do kind of 268 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: need somebody to to really make sure that things aren't 269 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,599 Speaker 1: falling through the craps. And I love that. Yeah, And 270 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 1: and honestly I love that because that's almost like if 271 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: you had that mindset, you could I could be like, yeah, 272 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: Jason's up, you know I've changed it because whatever, and 273 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: you can be like okay and not take it as 274 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: well if I did that, it's more like the manager 275 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: because mostly managing the situation that you then respect that 276 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: and you don't you don't challenge it. I guess right, 277 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: So I feel like we don't challenge it. Well, you know, 278 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: you get really upset though, if if it's only because 279 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: after times of you giving me crap, I'm like, well 280 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: but again, but you're not the manager. So that's that's 281 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: where it comes into play. Like because you're not the manager, 282 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, you have to follow the manager's schedule. Manager. 283 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: But no, I mean it's a good point. I love 284 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: that point. Rachel, would you got I'm falling. I like 285 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: want to put like make myself a sign that's just 286 00:14:54,560 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: like Rachel house manager. That's like, that is your role, right, 287 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: You've always been I have a title that has been 288 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: you don't know, and I'm like manager, we can get promotions, right, 289 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell I get a promotion. I'm going outline 290 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: rate you like that though you you've managed, that's like you, 291 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: that's like you've been that friend since forever. You would 292 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: be like going out tonight girls where your dresses, like 293 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: group manager, that's time you can't come out. Let me 294 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: all right, let me take that analogy that you're saying 295 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: the manager and use it in another situation. Say someone's 296 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: a primary breadwinner. Okay, and what you're talking about with 297 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: like the being the house manager. Right, so if the 298 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: kids are seeing that twenty minutes later, I'm the house manager. 299 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: I kind of managed the schedule. It's more okay. If 300 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: the house manager is doing that now with money and 301 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: there's one person that's the primary, you know, breadwinner, is 302 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: it their role as the money manager? Then where do 303 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: they have more right about how money is spent or 304 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: you know, they can go buy something for themselves. But 305 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: if the one who doesn't make the money goes and 306 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: buy something, they give him crap for it, like because 307 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: that's the area of contention as well, and something that 308 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: Jan and I've definitely run into. But Chelsea, you you're 309 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: ready for this, Let's do it. It's a good point though, 310 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: because it's it's it is a different managing point and 311 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: I love that, Mike, that's great, go ahead, Chelsea. Personally, 312 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: I think it's what your agreement is ahead of time, 313 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: like as a husband and wife or as partners, did 314 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: you agree ahead of time that I'm going to be 315 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: the housekeeper. I'm going to take care of our children 316 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: and raise our children. You're going to be going to 317 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: work and be the breadwinner. That makes us equal. I'm 318 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: different planes, but you're bringing money home, but I'm raising 319 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: our children not getting paid. Right, So I think it's 320 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: just the difference of are you talking about it ahead 321 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: of time or is it just all of a sudden, 322 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: you know, someone stops working, someone is working, or someone 323 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: makes less money than the other person. I think it's 324 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: if you're going to talk about it, like, my husband works, 325 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: I'm retired, as I like to say, from a corporate job. Yeah, 326 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: you know, it's hard sometimes to be a retiree, and 327 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:41,719 Speaker 1: especially climate at a young age, the retired life. It is. 328 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: So anyway, he is the breadwinner, but we have that 329 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: mutual respect for each other and understanding that just because 330 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: he's bringing the money home doesn't mean that it's something 331 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: like I can't just go and buy things that I want. Obviously, 332 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 1: if there's big purchases and stuff like that. You know, 333 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: every couple has their own dynamic of when they're going 334 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: to be talking about money and things that they're spending. 335 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: But in terms of a management role, I don't think 336 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: they shouldn't have any bearing on it. That if you're 337 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: if you're the breadwinner, I don't think it should have 338 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: any bearing. I mean, look, you're the cook manager and 339 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 1: I never debate what's for dinner. When you say what's 340 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: for dinner and I say that's all right, right, okay, 341 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: that's such a That is such a good point too, 342 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: because if someone's taking that role on and they're saying, hey, 343 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make dinner. What if every single night you 344 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 1: were like, well I don't like my husband. It's like 345 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: I'm good, just gonna eat meat every night. You get 346 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 1: the thumbs up here that to Mike because you don't 347 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: want to do it and from and that's just it's 348 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: like my mom told me my little Rachel, never learn 349 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: how to use the lat more ever, because if you 350 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: learn how to do it, then you gotta have to 351 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: do it. So guess what, I don't know how to 352 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: use a lot more turn a lot of that garage stuff. 353 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: On'll never I'll never learn how to do it. No 354 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: time out, time out, Rachel. I have to call you 355 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 1: out because last time we talked on the phone. You 356 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: were saying that. Andrew was like, how do you not 357 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: know how many sods for yards or whatever? And I'm like, Rachel, 358 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: you don't need to know how many yards of sun 359 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 1: do you need? But yet he was expecting you to 360 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: know how much? But I did. Okay, so and I 361 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: did put a bunch of We were a team. We 362 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: were a team. Okay. I just have to say, Rachel 363 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: put that mulch down so once she could burn calories 364 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: and she could get steps in. Was it sunny that day? 365 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 1: If it was, she was getting a tan, got her tan, 366 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: and she's like, look at I worked out. I I 367 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: put out all right? Andrew? Oh um, no, it was funny. 368 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: Rol and I actually my husband I actually had that 369 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: exact conversation about like, because he is the primary bread winner. 370 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 1: And we had that conversation because there was a purchase 371 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 1: that came up and that we didn't quite agree with 372 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 1: and that he made or that you made that I made. 373 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: I'm sorry that I hadn't made it yet, but he 374 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 1: didn't agree with me making it. And can we ask 375 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 1: what it is? It was just like a gift for somebody. 376 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 1: It wasn't like a big thing. I think it's just 377 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: we have different philosophies and like gifting, like gifts for 378 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: the family and went to give gifts, and it's because 379 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: he just came from a slightly like his family is 380 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: just a little different in that regard, and so it's 381 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: something that we've always like kind of had a little 382 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: bit of disagreement with, and so we had a disagreement 383 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 1: on that, and it kind of came down to like 384 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: who has the final say and he's like, you know, 385 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: you have the final say when it comes to everything 386 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 1: with Nola or daughter, and then I have the final 387 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: say kind of on the finances. But it wasn't as 388 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: like black and white as that. I think what it 389 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: really came down to is like, yes, I understand that 390 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: we make these decisions together, and it's really just about 391 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: kind of respecting the other person's role. And I think 392 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: that's kind of what it comes down to, is the 393 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: respect and the communication of it. So it's it's like, sure, 394 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: I can under I can acknowledge that you are the 395 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: manager of the finances or that you're the primary breadwinner, 396 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: and he acknowledges that I'm the manager mostly of like 397 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: Nola's food and schedule and school and everything else, and 398 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: and and even the bigger things related to our family 399 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: and and our lifestyle. But I think it's that we 400 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 1: still address it as a team, and it's not so 401 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: much final say. It's just that at the end of 402 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,479 Speaker 1: the day, we respect that that person is kind of 403 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,880 Speaker 1: more the authority on those things, because the final say 404 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: is just such a dead end, and it doesn't feel 405 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: like a very collaborative like word to put to it. 406 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: But I think we that's just kind of how we 407 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: approach it, is that like if there really was a 408 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 1: big conflict, we would still work it out together. It's 409 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: not like, well, this is what I'm saying, and like 410 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: that's it. Like it's it's my way or the highway 411 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: type thing. So it's not the best phrase to put 412 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: to it. But I just think that we're okay with 413 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 1: like I'm okay that he's the primary redwinner and and 414 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: but we still make those decisions together and say, well, 415 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: how did that conversation? Is different than like, like that's 416 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: a much bigger thing. Although it's a good analogy, I 417 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: think finances are still a much bigger thing than like 418 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: the schedule for our child or something I would maybe 419 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: equated more to like how we're disciplining our child, because 420 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: I feel like that's maybe on the same level of finances, right, 421 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: like in terms of like importance of the like your 422 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: beliefs on that topic. Did you give the gift like that? 423 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: Andrew was like, you can't send that gift. I don't know. 424 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: It wasn't like that. I think it just more was 425 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 1: like that conversation that kind of prompted the bigger conversation 426 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: of I think that's really earlier on in our marriage 427 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: when we kind of discovered like whose role is what? 428 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: Because actually at the time, I think that was early 429 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: on when we had when we had Nola. But either way, 430 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: it was it was more just like that specific situation 431 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,040 Speaker 1: that kind of prompted the bigger conversation of kind of 432 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 1: how we're working through that type of stuff and how 433 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: we're just communicating about it. But I mean, Mike and 434 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: I we had a similar recently conversation about it's just 435 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: about having the conversation, conversation and just respecting the other 436 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: person and saying, hey, so we we had an amount, 437 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: and now if there's anything over that amount, we say, hey, 438 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: you know, I would really like this, you know, because 439 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: it's not asking permission. It's about respect. And I think 440 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: I know that you've had a hard time with that 441 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: because you said, like you feel like you're asking permission, 442 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: and I kept saying, it's not about I don't you 443 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: don't need to ask for my I'm not your mom. 444 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 1: But at the same time, it's just I would ask 445 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: you just It's just it's just a respect thing, right, Yeah, 446 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 1: And I mean I'm more comfortable with it now than 447 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: I had been in the past. Um, but I make 448 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: up that that is, uh, it's a little bit more 449 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: difficult for men um maybe than it is for women. 450 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: And that's maybe generalizing a little bit, but just in 451 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: my person will experience it. It's felt difficult in all honesty, 452 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: even even now with all the work that Jan and 453 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: I've done in general and our couple of ships, and 454 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: and on this topic, even now, if I was making 455 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: if I was say the primary breadwinner, like if I 456 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: was playing football still and I was making that kind 457 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: of money again, I would have more confidence going and 458 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: buying something and coming home with it. Say, I want 459 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: to go buy a you know, a thousand dollar a gun. 460 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: I came home with it and Jan I was like, 461 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: why did you buy that? And I was like, well, 462 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: because I wanted to get it, you know, like I 463 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: would be confident if I do that now, I would 464 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: be like I'm a dead man. No no, no, no, 465 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: no, no no, no no no no. I only say that 466 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: because that's irresponsible. Regardless, it shouldn't matter whether I'm making 467 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: the money, you're making the money, that that would be 468 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: irresponsible to do. I'm just saying it's like my psyche 469 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 1: would would feel more confident. You still don't think you 470 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: asked her for like that amount, And I guess I 471 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 1: don't know right, Like it's so tough because I agree, 472 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: like if there's like I'm not asking Ryan I every 473 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: time I buy something that Target, because I'll know I'd 474 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: be just like seriously, like Target came again, I'm like, 475 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 1: I must have just bought a couple of things. But 476 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: I don't know if like I don't know, I don't 477 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: know if I ever would be like if I bought 478 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 1: like a big item, no matter how much money, I 479 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: feel like I still would ask or he would ask, 480 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think it was a 481 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: big turning point from Mike. He went to a gun 482 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: store actually with your friend Matt. I don't know if 483 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: you want to tell that story or not. But I 484 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: feel like that it clicked for you in that moment 485 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: before you tell the story if you bought one or not, 486 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: But did you at that point? So I guess I'm 487 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: kind of looking Mike in your sense of Gianna. If 488 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: he brought one home, you would have already maybe had 489 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: an idea that that would be something that he would want, right, Like, 490 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be like an out of the blue whatever 491 00:25:58,480 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: it is, right you know what I mean? If it's 492 00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: like a big purchase item and if somebody I like, 493 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: like I've really been wanting this and you know I have, 494 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: then I'd be like, oh, you know, it wouldn't be 495 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: like a conversation of like boom, I got this like 496 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: Twitter thing. And I think the problem with this is honestly, 497 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 1: like the word ask. It's like it's so like and 498 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: my husband Andrew were a married word team, like, doesn't 499 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: we need to ask permission? I actually just I hate 500 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: that word. I hate that. I hate that whole thing 501 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: like ask, Like we are a team, right, so if 502 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: we have a budget, if we have like and you know, 503 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: you're communicating about finances and maybe you want to do 504 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: X Y and Z with the kids, and you want 505 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: to take a trip just for you guys, and you're 506 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 1: planning on doing maybe like some type of renovation or something. 507 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:46,880 Speaker 1: I don't think it should even be like I need 508 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: to ask your permission. I think it's like, hey, I'm 509 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: thinking about giving this. I know we want to do X, 510 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: Y and Z, like what's collaborate. I hate that whole, 511 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: like ask right, because it's so so good idea and 512 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 1: I and I hear you, Yeah, we're one unit. I 513 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: just to me, I just hate that. Yeah and we 514 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 1: and we hear you on that. I think that's where, 515 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: you know, we've gotten stuck in our situation where for 516 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 1: Mike at least, where he's like I don't want to 517 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: feel like I have to ask you, and it's like 518 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: I never want you to feel like you have to ask. 519 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: It's just I personally just would never even buy a 520 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 1: pair of shoes that being like, hey, is it okay 521 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: if I get these was I've really wanted them for 522 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 1: a really long time. And it's just because I just 523 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: would feel bad because hey, it's a it's a chunk 524 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: of money and I don't really do it a lot, 525 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,239 Speaker 1: but you know, I will say at least, if I'm 526 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: being honest, I would have been frustrated if he came 527 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: home with a new gun, because he had just bought 528 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: a bunch of new guns, and so I'd have been like, man, 529 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 1: like you needed like a six you know, however many 530 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: guns like, so I wouldn't. I would have felt a 531 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: little upset about that. And I think too, it's about 532 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: expectations right where it's almost unspoken expectations where in a 533 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: situation you almost expect your spouse to handle the situation 534 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: the same way you would. So when Janna, like at 535 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: sits there and she does come to me and like, hey, 536 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: would you mind if I bought these parachutes, I'm like, 537 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 1: I never give Jane crap about anything, like when it 538 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: comes to money or purchasing, I'm just like yeah, like, 539 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: and it's it's ultimately because I default to trusting her, 540 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: like she wouldn't do it if it was irresponsible, She 541 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 1: wouldn't do it if it wasn't something she really wanted 542 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: or just out of the blue, kind of like to 543 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: your point, Lisa, where you know, if Ryan's been talking 544 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: about golf clubs and he came home with a new set, 545 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: you'd be like Okay, yeah, you've been talking about that 546 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: instead of he comes home with a motorcycle one day 547 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: and you're like, wait, what you know? So so I 548 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: definitely get that. I think that's a really great point 549 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: kind of if it's something that they've been talking about 550 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: so unfairly. I must expect Janna in the past more 551 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: so to almost not give me crap, because I never 552 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: give her crap about things, even when she you know, 553 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: Jane is very free real but when it comes on 554 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: like vacations or she wants to take trips with the 555 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: kids or this or that, you know, I never give 556 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: a crap about money. And that's ten times more than 557 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about getting. But it's with the family, 558 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: it's with the kids and experience of memory and all 559 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: that stuff. But still money is green in each scenario, 560 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: you know. But she's justifying it probably because she's like, 561 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm thinking of the family and I'm thinking of together, 562 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 1: not like and I just yeah, and I just said 563 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I think it's something 564 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: where it's again like I'm not saying ask at all. 565 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: It's just like, hey, a thousand dollar you know, um gun, 566 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: you know, this is something I really want just a conversation. 567 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: Like all I want is just like a conversation, just 568 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: like you're in the dark, and you know, like, unfortunately, 569 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: I feel like and I'm not trying to get down, 570 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: but I think I have little trigger issues around money 571 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: just because of issues of our past, and like, yeah, 572 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: where it's just like, oh man, you know where I 573 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: feel not respected in that in that sense, you know, 574 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: but you've you know obviously, like the communication now has 575 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: been incredible, and you know we've been on a on 576 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: a better place together.

I 811 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 1: need to do that. And it's not because I, like 812 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 1: I said, I'm annoyed that I was up doing something first, 813 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,359 Speaker 1: like that's just where my frame of mind is. And 814 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 1: he's kind of almost like almost like head to like 815 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 1: be like hey, like check yourself that, like hey, how 816 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,840 Speaker 1: are you? And I'm like, oh, you're right, Like I 817 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: think that's that like slow down, that printer is still 818 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: going to be there in the next ten minutes. After 819 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: I have met cup of coffee and you say good 820 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 1: morning to me, and in my head. I'm like when 821 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: I'm trying to put this off, and I'm like and 822 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 1: it's like and it's so and it's on me and 823 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 1: I know it, and I'm like, oh, and then I 824 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 1: feel guilty. And then I tried to backtrack for that. 825 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: I'm like, well, that's the thing. I kept backtracking and 826 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: then I was keeping making it worse. I'm sorry, but 827 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: I totally hiddacted and like that, and then like and 828 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: then we got into a worse argument after that, Rachel 829 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: what he got. I think it goes back to, like 830 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,080 Speaker 1: it's we're in COVID, we're in shelter and place or 831 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: social distancing, right, and like we are trying to keep 832 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: up with our normal routines, right, our normals. And you 833 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,839 Speaker 1: deal with anxiety, Jana, be Lisa, you do too, And 834 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of us control and manage 835 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: our anxiety by like having a plan and getting things 836 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 1: done and staying organized. And it's really hard to know 837 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:45,319 Speaker 1: when to like pull back and soften. And it's like 838 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: in general, like when you look at for myself personally, 839 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,359 Speaker 1: like the transition to being at home and having your 840 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: whole routine just like blow up and and having your 841 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 1: husband home all the time and like having me kids 842 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:03,240 Speaker 1: there and then have going to like be like sexy 843 00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 1: and romantic and loving and like all this stuff. When 844 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 1: everything just blow up, I think it's just really about 845 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,799 Speaker 1: trying to soften. And I would say, like the first 846 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: couple of weeks of going through this, it was hard, 847 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 1: and then just like being able to pull back and 848 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: let some of the stuff go and let yourself like 849 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 1: soften and say certain things just don't matter, so you 850 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:29,280 Speaker 1: have that time to kind of connect more with your spouse. 851 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 1: Like today, I'm I know, I've like thirty minutes before 852 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: the kids wake up from nap, and Andrew's just got 853 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 1: a conference call on the beastment and he texts me. 854 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 1: He's like, hey, baby, like what you're doing? Oh my gosh, 855 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 1: like mess like and I literally have I literally have 856 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 1: the cleaning supplies out, and I'm like, I have a 857 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: half hour, you know all this stuff. I can get 858 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 1: this half hour right, Like that's my plan. I'm gonna 859 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 1: get all clean. And he's like, hey, baby, can I 860 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,719 Speaker 1: come up? You want to hang out? And in my head, 861 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,479 Speaker 1: I'm like the first thing I wanted to respond because 862 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: he's in the basement and I'm the second level and 863 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 1: I and I want to respond like, oh my gosh, 864 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:10,880 Speaker 1: I'm in the middle of the cleaning like now, but 865 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 1: that was like, hold back, it's really important right now, right, 866 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 1: And I was like, sure, come on, but it's hard, 867 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,440 Speaker 1: like I feel like that takes time, right. I just 868 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:23,920 Speaker 1: think it's a couple of things. I think to your 869 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 1: point rage, we're all looking for some sense of control 870 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: right now, especially like in this world right now that 871 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 1: the future is a little uncertain right so we don't 872 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 1: know what it's gonna look like. So I think what 873 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: I've tried to keep in mind is I'm trying to 874 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:43,880 Speaker 1: empathize with people in in trying to be conscious of 875 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 1: the ways in which that may come out for them. 876 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,239 Speaker 1: Like my mom who is like obsessing over like oh, 877 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 1: I have to find geese because I have to make bread, 878 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 1: and I'm like wanting to freak out on her, like 879 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 1: like Mom, it's like who cares about bread? But then 880 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: I'm realizing this is her outlet, like that's what she 881 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,880 Speaker 1: needs right now to create some sense of control. And 882 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 1: I think that's one silly example, but I think it's important, 883 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 1: I guess not lose sight of that and just be 884 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: a little more forgiving and give people a little more 885 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,479 Speaker 1: leeway during this time. And so I think that's one 886 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 1: piece of it. But I guess so I think my 887 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,800 Speaker 1: husband's pretty understanding of that because I think I'm looking 888 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 1: for that control too, because I am a pretty type 889 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 1: a person. But I think outside of quarantine, it's about 890 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 1: meeting in the middle. I think to the whole example, Janna, 891 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: like the fight and everything like we do that, I 892 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,919 Speaker 1: am totally like very similar to you, and I think 893 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: the rest of us like go go go, Like I 894 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,799 Speaker 1: have my checklist, I want to get things done. I 895 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's all about kind of the work 896 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 1: ahead of me. And my husband has said to me 897 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 1: a few times like hey, like I'm here, hello, Like 898 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,240 Speaker 1: can you slow down? Can you like pause for a minute, 899 00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 1: Can you give me a kiss? Can you like hold 900 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 1: my hand? And so I appreciate that he calls that 901 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 1: out to me, and so I try to be more 902 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 1: conscious of that, I think day to day. And I 903 00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: think I've also tried to let him into like what's 904 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: going on in my brain too, so that he kind 905 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:08,960 Speaker 1: of understands why I'm maybe not slowing down as much 906 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 1: and all the things I need to get done, and 907 00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 1: not just what I need to get done, but what 908 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: is actually required to get each thing done, because I 909 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 1: think sometimes it's a lot more than he thinks. But 910 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: then the other piece of it is, like again, I 911 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: think it's really just meeting in the middle because I'm 912 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 1: the type of person and he knows me that, like 913 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 1: when I get on a particular task, this is not 914 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 1: every task, but when I get on a particular task, 915 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: I get my mindset on it and like nothing else matters, 916 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:33,839 Speaker 1: I need to finish it. And so I think he 917 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,720 Speaker 1: respects that in certain tasks and maybe not in everything, 918 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 1: but I think he respects that and and kind of 919 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:42,360 Speaker 1: gives gives me that moment at times. But then again 920 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: I'm trying to also meet him in the middle and 921 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: remember that it's okay to slow down and not be 922 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 1: like ships passing in the night all the time, and 923 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,720 Speaker 1: like shows him affection or just like pause and enjoy 924 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,240 Speaker 1: the little moments rather than just like checking and chipping 925 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 1: away at my to do list because it's still going 926 00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:01,279 Speaker 1: to be there tomorrow. That's good. I like that. Um, 927 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: before we take another break and then go to emails, Mike, 928 00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:05,960 Speaker 1: do you have anything for the ladies? Like you know, 929 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 1: how to how to deal with your wife for you 930 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 1: know questions. I mean, that's just really driving you crazy 931 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 1: that you just want to know. Not really not right now. 932 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 1: But I will say and this is just and Janna 933 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: can attest to this, just my personality. And I don't 934 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 1: know if it comes from a place of defensiveness or well, 935 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 1: where it really comes from is you know, take these 936 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: scenarios that we're talking about right now, you know, and 937 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 1: if I was that way to Joanna the way she 938 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,000 Speaker 1: was to me that morning, like how would that make 939 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 1: her feel? So it's and that's where I feel, you 940 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 1: know again just like the manager of the house and 941 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 1: this and that where the double standards come into play. 942 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: Where it is that that grey area for a lot 943 00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:59,600 Speaker 1: of these topics that even if you have great communication, 944 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:02,879 Speaker 1: even if you try to stay ahead of this, those 945 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:07,279 Speaker 1: are inevitable situations and just to be able to have 946 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:11,319 Speaker 1: grace with one another that you know, we don't need 947 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 1: to escalate it. But just understand why that morning I 948 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 1: would be upset, you know, we're frustrated because it to me, 949 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 1: it validated my fears of the one morning in the 950 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 1: last ten days that you got the kids and I 951 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 1: met with, Hey, hey, we need to do this. You 952 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 1: need to pick up your clothes. I'm like, now, all 953 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 1: of a sudden, literally, I even said to Gain at 954 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:31,840 Speaker 1: one point when I felt bombard, I was like, you 955 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 1: know what, I should have just gotten up, sorry, I 956 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: shouldn't have slept in And I was like, oh my god, no, 957 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, and like I was like being apologetic. 958 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm sorry.

Do you guys just like give 965 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,319 Speaker 1: each other hugging, like all right, like let's start over 966 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 1: or okay, you know when you would just say I 967 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,279 Speaker 1: understand or is it something where you kind of hold 968 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 1: a grudge on it and then you guys have a 969 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 1: chip on the rest of the day. By the way, 970 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,880 Speaker 1: I wasn't like hey, I was like, hey, good morning. 971 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,760 Speaker 1: Like I wasn't like super friendly, but I wasn't super 972 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,520 Speaker 1: bitchy either, you know. I was like, I was like 973 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 1: in the middle. So I was like it made me 974 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: sound really bitchy. And then I was like, oh, I 975 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:24,880 Speaker 1: don't like that. Like you know, I was like I 976 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:27,280 Speaker 1: would never say hey, Like you know, I was like, hey, 977 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 1: great question, like the perfect pitch for you, just to 978 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:34,600 Speaker 1: wonder how mad she kissed me? Right, and yes, exact 979 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 1: great question. And we both we've done both. We've had 980 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:42,680 Speaker 1: those moments where we've apologized, Hey, I'm sorry, I was 981 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:47,320 Speaker 1: just annoyed. All right, love you, We're good. Um that morning, 982 00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 1: I think again, when it's depending on the situation, like 983 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 1: I said, for me, underneath of it was validated the fear. 984 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 1: It's like the one morning I chose to sleep in, 985 00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 1: you know, regardless of all the other mornings that I 986 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:02,320 Speaker 1: get up for or and get the kids, it's already 987 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 1: held against me. I make up this story that she's 988 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 1: that way because of me, because she had to get up, 989 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 1: and and then when she adds on top of it, 990 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 1: you know, going straight and I this goes back to 991 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,040 Speaker 1: my childhood. I hate being bombarded. Like even when my 992 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 1: parents give me chores, I'm like, look, give me one 993 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 1: at a time. Don't tell me, hey, do this after that, 994 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: you need to do this, after that, you need to 995 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,239 Speaker 1: do this, and so on top of that, Jana has 996 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:26,240 Speaker 1: given me like two three things on top of what's 997 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 1: going on, and I'm just like shutting down for sure. 998 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:32,800 Speaker 1: And I totally see that, and I like, I super 999 00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,840 Speaker 1: apologize for that because I can see that, and I 1000 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:37,759 Speaker 1: remember being like, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. But 1001 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 1: I feel like by that point, it's like the first 1002 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 1: thing I said, it was already out the window. I 1003 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 1: had that I had, and I kept apologizing, and I 1004 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 1: was just like and I almost kept digging because I 1005 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:52,800 Speaker 1: was apologizing more. And I think it made him because 1006 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 1: maybe from Mike's point of view, he's like, well, you 1007 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 1: said it, so there was some truth story. You said 1008 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 1: it in that tone, so you must have had something, 1009 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,319 Speaker 1: you know, and there wasn't. I was just like right. 1010 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,719 Speaker 1: And the fact that, like she said, even though she 1011 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 1: was apologizing, she was taking deeper because because then she 1012 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:11,800 Speaker 1: was saying things like, well, Jolie hijack the morning. I 1013 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 1: was like, even if Julie came in, okay, be frustrated 1014 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:17,719 Speaker 1: with Jolie, don't take that out on me like I 1015 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 1: wouldn't take that out on you, you know, So it's 1016 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:22,960 Speaker 1: like I felt like it was just defensive excuses that 1017 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: I'm like, why can't you just say I'm really sorry? 1018 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 1: I came in that way I was frustrated with Jolie, 1019 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:31,160 Speaker 1: But can we start the day over? And I think 1020 00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:33,399 Speaker 1: that's and I think that's where we can do better 1021 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 1: as a couple to where we you know, we both 1022 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 1: can say I can say that, and then also like 1023 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,000 Speaker 1: if I if I can't meet me there, then you 1024 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,880 Speaker 1: can say, hey, I'm sorry that really frustrated me, and 1025 00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 1: like to speak your feelings too, because like I didn't 1026 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 1: know that you were because I ended up saying I'm sorry, 1027 00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: and you know, you didn't tell me that you were upset, 1028 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,120 Speaker 1: so it was just like then you didn't express your feelings. 1029 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 1: So I think it's just about like staying on top 1030 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:00,040 Speaker 1: of your feelings well. And I think it's also of 1031 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:03,960 Speaker 1: the perfect example of you let out your frustrations on 1032 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: no matter who it's with, with the person you're closest to, 1033 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: right like something's going wrong, Like you know, Ryan will 1034 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 1: come home from work and he's just like, oh hey, 1035 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, like, oh hey, but it's because he's 1036 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 1: been talking and like all day and it's not right. 1037 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:21,279 Speaker 1: It's not towards me. So then I'm like okay. But 1038 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: then I'm like, but that's like when I was working, 1039 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:25,120 Speaker 1: I like I can I can see it, like you 1040 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,359 Speaker 1: kind of like put down your wall and your frustration. 1041 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,920 Speaker 1: And I just think everybody takes it personally because we 1042 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:32,880 Speaker 1: all want, you know, But I know I've been guilty 1043 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:34,719 Speaker 1: of it the other way.

I e. My husband and I disagree 1061 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,360 Speaker 1: on what our toildler can and cannot eat in the 1062 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: size of the bites. However, my husband never feeds him 1063 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 1: but always puts his two cents in or thinks he's 1064 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:41,240 Speaker 1: choking every time he coughs when eating. Honestly, this sounds 1065 00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 1: so dumb as I type it, but it drives me crazy. 1066 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: And yes, I've told my husband he can eat certain 1067 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:49,280 Speaker 1: things um or fine, you feed him, but we always 1068 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: are in this cycle. So how do you guys deal 1069 00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 1: with different parenting views with your spouse. Let me just 1070 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,960 Speaker 1: say this in response, I can't defend this guy. He 1071 00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:59,319 Speaker 1: needs to shut the hell up if he's not if 1072 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 1: he's not the one being or picking the foods, like, 1073 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 1: shut up. You don't know how manager and that and 1074 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 1: that's just again from from our relationship, from us doing 1075 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: a lot of things equally. I just if it's something 1076 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:19,080 Speaker 1: that Janna slowly does, I trust her to do that. Now, 1077 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:21,319 Speaker 1: if it's something I solely do. Jenna is inquisitive and 1078 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 1: still wants to ask questions and challenge at times, but 1079 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,880 Speaker 1: that respectfully. If you disagree to it, respectfully, don't do 1080 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:32,960 Speaker 1: it in a way not collaborative or counterproductive, or especially 1081 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 1: in front of the child in a hole. Do you 1082 00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:39,080 Speaker 1: guys have any issues with y'all's husbands at all about 1083 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:44,360 Speaker 1: just parenting differently? Well, I know we were talking earlier 1084 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 1: about Yeah, I think I know what she weirds she's 1085 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,800 Speaker 1: coming from. It's a little different. I totally agree with 1086 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,480 Speaker 1: with Mike and you guys what you're saying if you're 1087 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,480 Speaker 1: not going to participate in it, like but out of 1088 00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:59,960 Speaker 1: having an opinion on it. But in terms of different parents, 1089 00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 1: it's the same thing. Like my husband loves junk food 1090 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:06,040 Speaker 1: and I just didn't grow up with junk food. Like 1091 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,600 Speaker 1: we never had um pop in our house. We never 1092 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,360 Speaker 1: had junk food in our house. It was just something 1093 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 1: that I like never grew up with. And we never 1094 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 1: really had candy in our house. Like we definitely had 1095 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 1: like pastries and things like that, which is probably why 1096 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:21,879 Speaker 1: I'm addicted to cake. But like it's just something that 1097 00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 1: I don't see is valuable for the kids in their lifestyle, 1098 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 1: especially when they're babies, Like they just don't need sugar, 1099 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:32,800 Speaker 1: they don't need inflammatory foods, you know, when they're diet So, 1100 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:35,080 Speaker 1: like I was telling you guys earlier, you know, my 1101 00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 1: husband will secretly give our kids oreos or something like that, 1102 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 1: and like, like Mike, you just gave a judging parents. 1103 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:51,840 Speaker 1: It was like, because I mean, I like some junk food, 1104 00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 1: but still I'm not like giving it, sneaking it to 1105 00:56:55,719 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 1: the kids. I just feel if it's going to be 1106 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: healthy for them, I mean I'm not I'm not crazy 1107 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:06,919 Speaker 1: about it. Obviously, they eat ice cream, they eat cake, 1108 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 1: they eat other things. But it's just like it can 1109 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: be a treat, you know, if she does something great, 1110 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,040 Speaker 1: if our kids do something great, it can be like 1111 00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:16,439 Speaker 1: that's a great treat to give her an oreo, give 1112 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:20,080 Speaker 1: her Eminem's or something like that. But she doesn't need 1113 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 1: to just at in the morning have an oreo for 1114 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 1: you know. So you guys are laughing, okay.
