But I 633 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 2: want to find a common ground because I want my 634 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 2: kids to be able to come to me with stuff. 635 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: So I think he's just he's my little teacher.

I'd be like, we stay together. No, 640 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 2: marriage is hard. Marriage is hard. Marriage say that, but 641 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 2: what does that mean. 642 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: It's because you. 643 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: Are living with another whole ass human that got their 644 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 2: own shit and that you sometimes are like, I don't 645 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 2: want to deal with your jit, but I choose. 646 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: To every day.

You know, if 649 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 2: you guys can communicate when we're really good at that, 650 00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 2: when we are not all the time, you know, and 651 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 2: when you're changing. I think motherhood changes you as a woman. 652 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: And men don't have to change that much. There's not 653 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 2: much that they have to do, I think, and that's 654 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 2: hard for them. And then that becomes a whole different 655 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 2: thing because now this person, as you're learning who you 656 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 2: are as a mom, they're learning who you There's a 657 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 2: whole nother woman that has emerged for them. 658 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: It's it's hard, you know, you really have to. 659 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: You really have to communicate. It sounds cliche, but it's true. 660 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 1: That's interesting. So you had to like learn how to 661 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: be a wife, Yeah, but then you also had to 662 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: learn learn how to be a mother inside of your 663 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: marriage also, like a different version of yourself, even with 664 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 1: bonus kids like my step kids. That even was like, 665 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: that's a learning curve. So yeah, I think you know, 666 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: marriage is hard. 667 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 2: It's great. It is great if you're doing it with 668 00:31:54,760 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 2: the right person. But well, yeah, he's a good man, 669 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 2: he really is. 670 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: How did you know it was him? 671 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 2: I don't know, he will say, like it's funny. No, 672 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 2: I'll say this because I'm not a romantic. He's a romantic, 673 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 2: But I will say the moment I met him, I 674 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 2: was like who is he?

It's like, get quiet, yeah, 886 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: and just sit on it and meditate on it, pray 887 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 1: on it, because that's real. It'll show itself, that's real. 888 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,240 Speaker 1: I do. I do a lot of prayer. I literally 889 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 1: it's so weird.
