My question is how 13 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: do you start in the music industry? Because I have 14 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 2: idolized you in your mom for my entire life, and yeah, 15 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 2: I just want to know where to start because I 16 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: also love to sing, and I sing in Spanish. I 17 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 2: sing aboumda mariachi. But I've been feeling very trap lately 18 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 2: because I feel like where I live has no opportunity 19 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 2: for me, and I just want to know or want 20 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 2: to see where this goes, because I don't know. I've 21 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: had a conversation back and forth with my family, and 22 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 2: I have this feeling with God as well. That's like 23 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 2: maybe if I don't use a talent that He gave me, 24 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: maybe I'm wasting it. And that's why I'm asking this question. 25 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 2: So where do you begin in the music industry? 26 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: Dear Ruby, thank you for your question. First of all, look, 27 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,119 Speaker 1: I feel that now more than ever, with the power 28 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: of social media in the Internet, even if you don't 29 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: live in a place where you feel you have like 30 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: a lot of opportunity, the opportunity is really you putting 31 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: yourself out there. You know. I think starting there and 32 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: just trying it, even if you're doing covers, even if 33 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: you're not writing your own music yet. If you can 34 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: learn an instrum, I would highly recommend that the guitar, 35 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: the piano. That's something I wish I would have done. 36 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: But you can start with just doing covers. I mean, 37 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: a really good friend of mine who's super talented. Her 38 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: name is Skattoniana Ross. I'm sure you guys have heard 39 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: of her. That's how she started her career, just doing 40 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: a bunch of covers putting it on YouTube. Now you 41 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: have TikTok, you can do little things like that, like 42 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: use the hashtags, music or whatever. I mean, there's so 43 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: many ways, and I think starting there, just putting yourself 44 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: out there, having someone play the guitar, or putting on 45 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: a bestat doing karaoke, just anywhere to put your name 46 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: and your talent out there. That's like the first step, 47 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: and that's what I would recommend starting now. Eventually you'll 48 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: grow and people will get to know you. Yes see. 49 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: But I do feel like just doing it. I always say, 50 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: just do it, just try it, and don't live with 51 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: you what if I would have done it, like out 52 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 1: of fear or because you feel that you don't live 53 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: in the best place possible to put yourself out there. 54 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: But I feel like with the power of YouTube and 55 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: TikTok and Instagram and all these social media platforms in 56 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: the Internet, you can definitely get out there and have 57 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: people hear you. You know. So that is my recommendation 58 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: and my advice to you. So just try it, Mama, 59 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: do it. I can't wait to hear you. Okay, maybe 60 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: next time on Dear Cheeky's so show me a little 61 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: piece of your song or something. Okay, guys, So our 62 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: next question comes from Ancilla or Angela. 63 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 3: Hi, calling from a little town in Colorado. 64 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 4: I love you. I am obsessed with you, your family, 65 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 4: You guys are beautiful. I just love. 66 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 3: Everything about you guys, your books, everything, like I'm just 67 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 3: super fan. Anyway, I recently just cut out two of 68 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 3: my sisters from my life. I'm just tired of them, 69 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 3: just sick of everything, and I've just finally said it's time. 70 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 3: I do, however, have two boys, and they love my 71 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 3: boys so much, and I have decided to cut their 72 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: ties with them too. They don't get to see my 73 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 3: boys anymore, and I just I'm wondering if I should 74 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 3: feel guilty for not letting them see them, or if 75 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 3: what I'm doing is right. 76 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: Ooh, Angela, Okay, you know I am the first one 77 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: to tell you, even if it's family, even if it's 78 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I've had someone ask me about their mom. Like, 79 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: if someone is not giving you peace and it's bringing 80 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: you more pain than happiness, you have all the right 81 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: and the choice to say I don't want you in 82 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: my life. I don't know what happened. I don't know 83 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: what the situation is or how heavy it is. I 84 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: don't know how old your boys are. But I can't 85 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: say you're wrong because again, I don't know what happened, 86 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: but if they love your boys as much as I 87 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: hear they do, because I could hear it in your voice, 88 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: that's why you're asking because I feel like you don't 89 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 1: have peace in your heart. So if you had peace 90 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: in your heart completely, you probably wouldn't be asking me. 91 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: So that, for me, is an indication that you're feeling 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: a little unsettled in your soul about this. Maybe you 93 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: don't don't have to have a relationship with your sisters 94 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: right now, but if those boys love your sisters and 95 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: your sisters love your boys, then maybe you should be 96 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: a little open to having them in your kid's life. 97 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: That's what I personally think. Now, I would set a 98 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: boundary and say, please don't speak negatively about me to 99 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: my boys. I will let you see them, you can 100 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: pick them up or what have you. But I just 101 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: feel like it's not the children's fault, you know what 102 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: I mean. And that's where it's like it's very thin line. 103 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I'm very close to my siblings, 104 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: so it's like I can't even imagine not speaking to 105 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: my siblings. But again, I don't know the situation. I 106 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: don't know what happened, and you seem pretty firm about 107 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: that that you just cut them out, So I respect that, 108 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: but I am hoping that you guys can possibly talk 109 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: about it. I feel like talking and just coming to 110 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: an agreement. Like talking about it people understand each other. 111 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: So that's my only thing. But other than that, I 112 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: just I don't know if your boys want to see them, 113 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 1: and if your boys miss your sisters, that I just 114 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't take that from them. You know, that's just my 115 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: personal opinion. So yeah, Angela, thank you, and I'm praying 116 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: me you make the best decision. Looking forward to hearing 117 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: from you again. Okay, okay, So now our next question 118 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: comes from Brenda. 119 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 5: Hi Cheeky's how Are You Love? My question for you 120 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 5: is how do you start or continue a successful business? 121 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 5: Obviously with this economy right now, it's so bad, and 122 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 5: you know, we all want money of course to provide 123 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 5: and not and such, but it's just something that would 124 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 5: be very interesting to see and learn how in fact 125 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 5: you start from the bottom, you know, and then you 126 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 5: start working your way up with patients and motivation, especially 127 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 5: now that like me and myself, I've tried applying so 128 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 5: many places and because I had my children and I 129 00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 5: waited until a long time to raise them, and so 130 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 5: people wouldn't hurt my children because you never know who 131 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 5: you can leave them with. I can't even find a 132 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 5: job right now, and so I wanted to go a 133 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 5: different route and I do have a small business, but 134 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 5: it stuck. So it's frustrating and such, but it's just 135 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 5: something that would be very helpful if you would help 136 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 5: us with giving us some ideas and feedback. 137 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: Thank you so much, having a wonderful day. 138 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 4: I love you. 139 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: I love you too, Brenda. 140 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 4: Thank you well. 141 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: I think it's well, first of all, a very beautiful 142 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: and self listing that you did for your children by 143 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: staying home and raising them. I think that that in 144 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: itself is a huge job and that's amazing. And now 145 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: that you're trying to, you know, focus a little bit 146 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: more on Brenda, I get it. It can be frustrating, absolutely, 147 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: I've been there, you know. I had a salon for 148 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: four years and I made absolutely no money. I was 149 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: actually losing money. And that was my very first business 150 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: by myself. So it really did hurt until I just 151 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: knew I can't if this is not giving me what 152 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: I need, then I have to cut the bleeding and 153 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: just stop here. And as much as it hurt my 154 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: ego even as well, of course I did it and 155 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: I felt better. I'm not saying for you to do 156 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: that with your business. I don't know how long your 157 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: business has been in business. It usually takes about two 158 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: years to get a business going, and it goes from 159 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: literally crawling to walking to running. It takes time. So 160 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: you have to be patient. And if you feel after 161 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: a while it's not working out, it's okay for you 162 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: to say, okay, let me try something else, but it 163 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: is going to be frustrating. You have to be patient. 164 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: I wish I had a little bit more information to 165 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 1: give you better advice. But don't give up. I mean, 166 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: I know that sounds so cliche, but try putting it 167 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 1: out there, like you know, you can boost Instagram posts, 168 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: you know, like you can boost them and puts a 169 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 1: little bit of money behind them on Facebook as well, 170 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: and just keep going, you know, little by little. The 171 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: person that quits is the one that, like, you know 172 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like I'm not saying like sometimes you 173 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: have to, Like I quit on my you know, on 174 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: my salon. I was like, I can't do this, anymore. 175 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: But it opened the door to something else. So don't 176 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: be closed to that feel like, oh if I close 177 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: this down, I'm anna be a failure. No, you can 178 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: start again. You can start something else. Look around your 179 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 1: neighborhood or where you live, or like, what are people 180 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: like really into? What are they wanting? Do your research 181 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: all that stuff so that maybe you can start another 182 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: little business. You know, still keeping this one and just 183 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: start another little hust So it could be even cooking, girl, cooking, 184 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: like freaking food and meal prepping. I don't know, because 185 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: you can still take care of the kids and do 186 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 1: that at home. Just little things. I don't know, think 187 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: outside of the box. But be patient. Okay, it takes 188 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: a little bit of time, all right. So the next 189 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: question comes from Jenea. 190 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 4: Dear cheekies, you might not end up getting my question, 191 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 4: but it's worth the shot. What kind of advice would 192 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 4: you give to somebody that test depression and doesn't find 193 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 4: a motivation in anything, and it's just been so dark lately. 194 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 4: I love you so good to see you doing amazing 195 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 4: and always been a fan.

Bye. 199 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: Oh you're gonna make me cry, Thank you so much. 200 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: Oh see, like you're making my day, you know what 201 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: I mean? Like that should give you hope, Like you're 202 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: making someone else smile. So you are important. So know 203 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: that you are valuable. You are here for a reason. 204 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: And you have to know that. You have to believe that. 205 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: I've had those dark moments where I just want to 206 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: give up. I get it. I have been there. It's 207 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: been tough. But you also have to remind yourself this 208 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: is just a moment. It's just a bad day. It's 209 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: not a bad life, you know, and this too shall pass. 210 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: Like you have to repeat that, and I know it 211 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: sounds a lot easier said than done, but you have 212 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: to look in the mirror, be like, this is just 213 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: a moment. This isn't who I am. There are times 214 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: when I'm feeling sad and just like a lot of 215 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: worries and stresses, and I literally rub my hands all 216 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 1: over my body and I throw out like outside the window. 217 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 1: I'm like, I release any feelings, emotions that do not 218 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: belong to me, any stresses or worries. I release them 219 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: to heaven. I am protected. And sometimes even focusing on 220 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: like what you do have that helps a lot. Like 221 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: I have a roof over my head, I have clothes 222 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: on my back, I have food in my refrigerator. All 223 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: that stuff helps you live in the moment. There is 224 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: so much power in the Now, which is a book 225 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: that I recommend that helps so much. Just living like 226 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: this moment right now is so valuable and we're never 227 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: going to have it again, and just really cherishing that. 228 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: It really allows us to step out of whatever it 229 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 1: is that we think, you know, because sometimes it could 230 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 1: be something that's hurting us. Absolutely. When I was going 231 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: through my divorce and it was a very dark moment 232 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: in my life for like three months, I was trying 233 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: to pull myself out of that black hole. So I 234 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: get it. So I don't know necessarily what is making 235 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: you feel sad, but most of the time it has 236 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: to do with things that already happened the past. And 237 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: what you have to do is just focus on the 238 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: future and focus in the moment and say okay, I'm 239 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 1: okay right now. Focus every day and then tomorrow will 240 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: be another day, and take it day by day and 241 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: just know that you are here for a reason, and 242 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: you just made me smile. You really did so, so 243 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: thank you and I hope that you feel better. And 244 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: I'm praying for you and pray. That's another thing. Not 245 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: don't let go of God's hand, of your faith, whatever 246 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 1: that may be. Just have faith in something much higher 247 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: than you. It exists, it really does. And that also helps, 248 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: like knowing there's something bigger than me out there. So 249 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: I'm sending you a big ass hug, a big ass hug. 250 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: Thank you so much for for tuning in and for 251 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: you know, just making me smile.
