My girls 14 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: go to Christian school. It's really important to me that 15 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: they have good Christian role models. And really, even though 16 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: that wasn't like a real common theme in full House 17 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: and Fuller House, the values were so strong. 18 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 3: It was such an amazing gift to all of us. 19 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, the show itself, do was a gift 20 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: to me, not just to be on a television show. 21 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 4: But you never know. 22 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 2: When you're an actor, especially a child actor, and you're 23 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 2: auditioning for the next thing and you're hoping you get 24 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:19,279 Speaker 2: a part on something. And never did I think that not. 25 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 4: Only would I be. 26 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: On this television show that would run for eight long years, 27 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 2: but one that would never be off the air over 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: thirty five years. I mean, it's never been off the air, 29 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 2: and one that carries such deep family values to it. 30 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 2: And that's really why this show has stood the test 31 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: of time because all of the things that were on 32 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 2: the show, they don't change. Even as the years change, 33 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 2: it doesn't change much in raising kids and what just 34 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 2: parenting with good values. So to be a part of 35 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: something so special, not it shaped me, of course, but 36 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: it feels so good to be a part of it. 37 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: So I love when people are still loving and watching 38 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 2: the show. 39 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: I will always be grateful.

I kind in the 99 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 2: weirdest way. I just thought, oh, this is what happens 100 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: to every family. If your actors you were on a 101 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: TV show, So my brother was on one, I was 102 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 2: on one. I didn't realize kind of how lucky we were, 103 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 2: and that doesn't happen very often. 104 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 4: Maybe I think of Jason Bateman and Justine Bateman. 105 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 2: They were probably the other sibling duo that were on 106 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: television shows. 107 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 4: At the same time. 108 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: But it was it was pretty special, but no real competition. 109 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: When we would come home from work, Like my brother 110 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 2: was just my big brother and I was the little 111 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 2: sister and we we left work at work, it was 112 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 2: all about family because we have two sisters in between, 113 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 2: and you know, it was about doing homework and chores 114 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: and family life. 115 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: That's so interesting. So you now have this massive staying power. Obviously, 116 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: we talked about the fact that there was fulling a 117 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: Fuller house and it was the same I mean, the 118 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: same people came back, which I thought was amazing. 119 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 3: How often does that. 120 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: First of all, it doesn't very often happen that you 121 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: have a sequel of a series that works so well. 122 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: But it was very I mean, so it just drew 123 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: us in. But you have this massive staying power I 124 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: think with women and like I said, with my girls, 125 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: with kids, because we look up to you and we 126 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: see you as this really powerful figure. 127 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: You're going on your first tour. 128 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: Tell us how that came about and what you hope 129 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: to accomplish. 130 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 4: I know I feel like I should. 131 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 2: I should be a musician or a communion and have 132 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 2: great jokes or sing you a song. But you know what, 133 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: I absolutely love connecting with the audience. And I think 134 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 2: that stems from being on Full House because we taped 135 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,600 Speaker 2: in front of a live audience every week. And I 136 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 2: love social media for that reason because I like to 137 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 2: connect with people. And I have had this a podcast now, 138 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 2: the Cannas Hammonburry Podcast, where we deep dive on these 139 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:54,119 Speaker 2: topics that like parenting or the Bible, and we spend 140 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 2: a lot of time and have deep conversations. And what 141 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: my takeaway from that is learning from the audience not 142 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 2: only what's resonating, but are where the problems and where 143 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: can we find solutions and where can I help guide people? 144 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 2: And so that interaction has been amazing and I thought, 145 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 2: how can we expand that And the way for me 146 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: to take it is to actually connect in person with people, 147 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 2: and so I thought a live tour would be a 148 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 2: fun idea. I think like a girl's night out is 149 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 2: always fun. Although you can bring your husbands, but it's 150 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 2: geared towards women and we're just we're going to have 151 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: a great night. 152 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,239 Speaker 4: It's going to be we're gonna have fun games and prizes. 153 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 2: We're going to talk about full house and full our 154 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: house and all that kind of stuff, but we're going 155 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 2: to take it a little bit deeper and talk about 156 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: women's health and talk about faith. And I just wanted 157 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 2: a time to be a time of refreshment but really 158 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: connection in a selfish way, because for me, it's about 159 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: experiencing all of you in a real and tangible way 160 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 2: and not just over the TV screen, the computer screen, 161 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: the theater screen, which I enjoy doing too, but I 162 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 2: want to connect with you in real life. 163 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: I think I saw you say. 164 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: Faith, family and fitnessess faith, and I think, like a 165 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 1: TV family and fitness And then but you also have 166 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: this devotional out right now and you've and this isn't 167 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: your first, but I wanted to ask you about this one. 168 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: It's Rise and Renew and it's a daily devotion. It's 169 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: a thirty day journey and it is for people who 170 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: feel weighed down by failure, grief, for disappointment. How did 171 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: how did you decide that was a critical message to 172 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: bring because I do think that right now there is 173 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: a lot of there's a lot of people that feel 174 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: like they're just not where they need to be, or 175 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: they've just experienced a loss something like that. 176 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we're all going to experience grief and loss 177 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 2: in our life. And this, this devotional came out of 178 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 2: the pandemic, It came out of COVID, and I think 179 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 2: a lot of us had experienced not only grief and 180 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: loss in that, but also just I think a turning 181 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 2: point in our soul of what is most meaningful and 182 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: what gives us hope and what gives us strength. 183 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,559 Speaker 4: And so that's where the devotional came out of. 184 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 2: And I am I mean, I'm a woman who is 185 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 2: I'm going to share my faith and the hope that 186 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 2: I have in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And so 187 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 2: my hope is that in looking through scripture, reading through 188 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: the Bible, connecting with God's word and daily over you know, 189 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 2: a few minutes every day really sets your path on. 190 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: It sets your day on a path forward with hope. 191 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 2: And that's why I wrote it. And so you know, 192 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 2: I love the Bible. I talk a lot about reading 193 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 2: the Bible. Sharing the Bible and a devotional is an 194 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 2: accompaniment to that, and it's an easy way to incorporate scripture, 195 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 2: but focus specifically on the ones on the verses that 196 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 2: give us hope and strength and know that our worth 197 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 2: and our value come from God, not from our circumstances, 198 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: not from the people around us, not from validation from 199 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 2: our job or our work, what we're doing, how much 200 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 2: money we make, It isn't anything like that. And so 201 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 2: this is just part of what I do. I just 202 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: do love it. 203 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: This is a moment where you've seen, because we're hearing 204 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: so much that young men are coming back into the 205 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: church and that where men are really seeking out God, 206 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 1: but it seems like we're still kind of lagging with women. 207 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 3: Is that something that you feel like. 208 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 1: You can kind of propel that revival among women in 209 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: this tour and that's what you're hoping to see. 210 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 4: Well, I share hopes, So I hope. 211 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 2: I'm just a tiny little cog in the wheel that 212 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 2: plants and other seed. There's hope in Jesus, and I 213 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 2: see a revival of faith. 214 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 4: I think we all do. 215 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: All over the country, especially from very recent events, people 216 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 2: are reevaluating people are looking at the political. 217 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 4: Climate they they. 218 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: See they see something different. 219 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 4: And the people that. 220 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: Have known this, that value their faith are becoming bolder 221 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: in their words. 222 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 4: And my hope really with the tour is to. 223 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 2: Also embolden women to not be shy and to not 224 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: take a seat, but to be open about sharing where 225 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 2: hope comes from and about all about Jesus. 226 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: I think you're going to find that you're going to 227 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 1: have young women who are very curious, because so we've 228 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: been going around Michigan and talking to young women, talking 229 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: to groups of young people, and the young women I've 230 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: just noticed in the last six months have really started 231 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: to step forward and say, I want to say it's 232 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 1: okay to be looking for marriage. And I think, how 233 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: did we get to the point where they're taking a 234 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: leap to say that, you know, they're afraid to say 235 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: that on a college campus, and this idea that they 236 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 1: know that. I mean, we're built for that, We're built 237 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: to look for another person. But we have this culture 238 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: that's been telling people you don't really need that, but 239 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: it's okay to want that and to need that. 240 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, it. 241 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 2: Is a sad Is it a sad place to see 242 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: that women are afraid to say that. And I mean, 243 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 2: I have a daughter that's in her that she just 244 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 2: got married and she's in her twenties. All three of 245 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 2: my kids are in their twenties, and it, you know, 246 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: I think every generation will say it feels like a 247 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 2: different time. And this time is almost going back in 248 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 2: time because we've gone so far to the left to 249 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 2: teach that what our real and true values are meaningless 250 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: and worthless and they don't matter anymore. We've gotten so 251 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 2: far away from it that now I really do believe 252 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: that we're seeing a whole group of young people say, hey, 253 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 2: I want to go back to the way the grandparents 254 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 2: did it, and it feels almost old fashioned to them, 255 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: and yet it is the way in which we were 256 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 2: built and made. And so we do need strong voices. 257 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 2: Every generation needs to lead each younger generation. And that's 258 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 2: as we mature and become women. The Bible calls us 259 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 2: to do that, to lead the younger and teach the 260 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 2: younger generation, and so helping be a voice in saying 261 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: like it's okay, yes you should value that, want you 262 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 2: that and why why because the Bible says so, And 263 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 2: let me show you where it does. And I think 264 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: that's always the best piece of advice, at least that 265 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 2: I've given with my kids in the way that I'm parenting. 266 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 2: That this isn't just what mom says because I believe 267 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 2: it's true and right. It's because God says this. And 268 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 2: let me show you why and where God says it. 269 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 3: Stick around. 270 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: We've got more coming up with Candice Cameron Bray.

I'm frustrated because you should be 302 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: doing this. This is what the Bible says. But I 303 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: don't know exactly how to point all of that out. 304 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: I do think that there are a lot of parents 305 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: that are like, gosh, I want to know those verses. 306 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 1: I want to know how to have that conversation. Do 307 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 1: you feel like you're bringing that to people? 308 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 4: I do, I really do. 309 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 2: I think that a devotional book is an easy way 310 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 2: to break down parts of the Bible. I don't think 311 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 2: that you should stop at a devotional book. I think 312 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 2: the most important thing is to read the Bible. That's 313 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: why it's a good accompaniment. But it's easy and that 314 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 2: you can it's sectioned out into verses, you can easily 315 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 2: reference those things. So I hope that I'm giving tools 316 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 2: to women, but that they based on using a devotional 317 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 2: to see how applicable God's word is and how it 318 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 2: changes hearts and when you pray through it, it it 319 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 2: You know. God can absolutely move mountains. You might not 320 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 2: be able to, but God can. And we understand the 321 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: hope in that I couldn't. I wouldn't want to live 322 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: a day without it. And so I really do hope 323 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 2: that tools like the devotional will give women easy access 324 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 2: to say, oh, I can do this, and I can 325 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: memorize a verse and I can start to understand this, 326 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: because that's the biggest place in parenting is starting with yourself. 327 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: Because we can talk to our kids all day long, 328 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 2: but if we are not walking the walk, if we 329 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 2: are not practicing what we preach, our words are meaningless 330 00:16:58,960 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: to our children. 331 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: I saw you recently say something about you were when 332 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: you remembered your mom going through menopause and having a 333 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: hot flash. And as you're talking about parenting, I'm thinking 334 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: about this because I'm thinking about how your kids are 335 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: growing up and they you sometimes forget they don't know 336 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: as much as you know. And you pointed out so 337 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: well that we are at a different phase in life, 338 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: in health and everything than our kids, and that is 339 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: also a challenge. I don't know how it is for men, 340 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: but I think that for women, you are going through 341 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 1: a different life change. 342 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 3: And you're trying to parent at the same time. How 343 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 3: do you talk women through that? 344 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: Because I thought it was so sweet that you were, 345 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: like I look back on that now and go, I 346 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: made fun of my mom for having hot flash, and 347 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: I'm like. 348 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 3: Oops, you know, oops do that? Yeah, right, exactly. 349 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 4: I know the things I put my poor mom through 350 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 4: and laughed at her. 351 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 2: It's so sad. And now I'm here and I'm in 352 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 2: it and doing it. But you know, I think that 353 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 2: an area that our country has failed at as a whole, 354 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 2: and maybe the whole world. I don't want to even 355 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 2: blame our country is women's health. When we get into 356 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 2: the middle age of life in our forties and fifties. 357 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 2: I had doctor Tabitha on the podcast, and she's a 358 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 2: triple board certified a medical doctor, obstetrician, gynecologist, and. 359 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 4: She has was explaining how many in. 360 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 2: All different ways where the medical field has gotten things wrong, 361 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 2: where they've course corrected, and she's very much into integrative 362 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 2: medicine now but has all of the knowledge from her certifications. 363 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 2: And I just think that there's so many tools out 364 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 2: there for women of our age that my mom didn't have, 365 00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: and they're finally coming to the forefront, and hopefully we're 366 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 2: going to get more of those things covered by our 367 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 2: medical insurance that are not covered right now to help 368 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 2: women go through middle age and menopause, perimenopause, menopause, all 369 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 2: of those things. 370 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 4: And so I'm really hopeful. 371 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 2: I am not a doctor, I am That's why I 372 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 2: have knowledgeable people on the podcast to bring us this 373 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,479 Speaker 2: information so that we can have a better experience. But 374 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 2: I'm just I'm grateful that a lot of women my 375 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 2: age now are talking about it. And it doesn't matter 376 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 2: whether it's entertainers or a public figure or it's it's 377 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 2: just women. You're a teacher, you're a stay at home mom, 378 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 2: whatever it's we're just talking about it now because we 379 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 2: want to have a better experience and we have the 380 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,239 Speaker 2: tools to do that, but not all the information has 381 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 2: been given, so yeah, it's. 382 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 3: Been really taboo. It's like a thing that you shouldn't mention. 383 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: And I do think that having people like you, having 384 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: folks out there on the podcast and other women who 385 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: have really been embracing, like we're going to talk about this, 386 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 1: We're going to say that this is hard. Being a 387 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: woman can be very challenging, and we should actually be 388 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,479 Speaker 1: able to talk about it, be allowed to talk about it. 389 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 3: And I love that you talk about that. But you 390 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 3: you have a unique. 391 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: Position that you've always kind of been able to cover 392 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: the tough situations, even when you were young and you 393 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 1: were talking about you know, bullying and kids growing up 394 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 1: and weight issues and hair. You have always absolutely had 395 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: the best hair. And we're all jealous of you. 396 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 3: Just so you know. 397 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: I'm sure you've heard that in a million times, but 398 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: you told a story recently about seventeen magazine which I 399 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 1: thought was fascinating because I think we look at you 400 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: and we're like, she's always had everything and been you know, 401 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: everybody loves her, but just that internal struggle that even 402 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,879 Speaker 1: for you, there were times that were hard that we 403 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: don't really we don't see because we think that when 404 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: you're a celebrity everything's easy. But you had very real 405 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,959 Speaker 1: experiences that women still experience. Tell us a little bit 406 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: about what that was like. Yeah, I mean, it's always interesting. 407 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 2: It's a little challenging to grow up in front of 408 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 2: millions of people, especially in your most formative years and 409 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: you're going through awkward stages of life and you hit 410 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 2: puberty and things change and you're growing, you're maturing, and 411 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 2: to do that in front of a lot of people 412 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 2: can be challenging and at the same time, just like 413 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 2: anyone else, At least for me, it's like, you want 414 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: to be the popular kid, you want to be the 415 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 2: pretty one when you're fifteen, sixteen, and when you're in 416 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 2: that in the industry in Hollywood, I still had those 417 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 2: kinds of dreams and goals too. So to be on 418 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: the cover of a magazine, I actually thought I had 419 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 2: a shot at it because I was on this really 420 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 2: popular television show. But to be told that I wasn't 421 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,719 Speaker 2: a fit, that I didn't look like the other girls, 422 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 2: that they had on the magazines, and maybe it was 423 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 2: even my goodie two shoes personality. 424 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe I wasn't cool enough to be 425 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 4: on it. 426 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 2: I mean, I can think of it in all different 427 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 2: ways now as an adult as to why I was 428 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 2: told no twice, but that reflection always, you know, it 429 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 2: took a hit on my self esteem, and so you 430 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 2: go through those challenges. It kind of doesn't It doesn't 431 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 2: matter whether it's in front of a whole lot of people. 432 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 2: It feels the same in front of the camera or 433 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 2: if you're a high school or going through school and 434 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: being told mean comments by kids who are just bullies. 435 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 1: And that's something that our kids see in a different 436 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 1: way because there is so much ability to get to 437 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 1: your kid's self esteem, whether it's social media, through the phone, 438 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: you have a bullying at school. That's why I thought 439 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: that that story was so important because we look at 440 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: you now, we're like, I mean, we looked at you 441 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,399 Speaker 1: then and we thought, oh my gosh, she's amazing. We 442 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 1: look at you now and you're telling this story and 443 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: we hear this. 444 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 3: And you're so You've done so which great things. 445 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: You're such a successful follower of the Lord and I 446 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: think that, to me is the most beautiful part of 447 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: it because through that, instead of going to a dark place, 448 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 1: you kept your focus on God. 449 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 3: And thatries what I want my girls to hear. 450 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: You know this is hard, and at that time it's crushing, 451 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: but you've always kept your focus on God. How do 452 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: you do that in an industry that is not God focused. 453 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 2: I'm so grateful that the Lord grabbed a hold in 454 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 2: my heart at a young age, and I have always 455 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 2: wanted to honor Him and please Him and all the 456 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 2: things that I do, even as a teenager. And as 457 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 2: I've gotten older, that relationship's only grown stronger. 458 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 4: And as I read the Bible and. 459 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 2: Really know who God is and know his character and 460 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 2: all the good that He has for me that may 461 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 2: not show up on this earth, they might be stored 462 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 2: up in heaven treasure up there when I get to 463 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 2: go spend the rest of my life with Him and 464 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 2: have but I have that eternal focus. But I only 465 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 2: know those things because I spend time with Him and 466 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 2: spend time in the world. And so that again is 467 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 2: what I value most and want to share most, especially 468 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 2: within my careers, that I realize that people do listen 469 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 2: to me. 470 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 4: I'm grateful because they liked me on. 471 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 2: The television show, or they like my movies or my 472 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 2: Christmas movies, whatever the reason. 473 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 4: But those are things that God gave. 474 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 1: Me to. 475 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 2: Flourish in which I'm grateful. But the real purpose of 476 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: my life is to share the Gospel with people and 477 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 2: share the hope in Jesus Christ, and so I just 478 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 2: do that by always remembering what my real priority is 479 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 2: in life. All the other things are external ways in 480 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 2: which I get to share Christ with but I keep 481 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 2: my eyes focused on Him, and then that helps. 482 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 4: Me navigate and navigate through. 483 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 2: The rocky seas of life and also make the hard decisions. 484 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 2: Because I've already drawn my lines in the sand, I 485 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 2: know the majority of the answers to the tough questions. 486 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 4: So when I get. 487 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:20,360 Speaker 2: Put in awkward situations or uncomfortable situations, I already know 488 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 2: what God's truth says, so it becomes easy just to 489 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 2: stand on that principle and not waiver. 490 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: I think that when as I was watching some of 491 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: the things that you've been talking about, it's powerful to 492 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: hear you talk about your body and taking care of 493 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: your body, especially as we're aging. 494 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 2: En. 495 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: I know you're talking about women's health. But I feel 496 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: like you really talk about it throughout your life, that 497 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 1: you are able to go to scripture and say God 498 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: is clear about the importance of taking care of your body. 499 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 1: And I think that's to me, that's important because it's 500 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: a hard conversation to have because we've been told, you know, 501 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: don't ever tell somebody that they have to take care 502 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: of their body. But you also because you don't want 503 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: a body shame. But you do it in such a 504 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: great way where you say, it's not about that, it's 505 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: about taking care of the temple that God has given 506 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: to you. 507 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's exactly it. 508 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 2: I mean, we are not valued more by the number 509 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 2: on this scale, what we weigh, or what size clothing 510 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 2: we wear. It's not about that. But God gives us 511 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 2: a body to live in so that we can fulfill 512 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 2: our purpose. Our purpose in life is to glorify God 513 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 2: and all the things that we do, and we know 514 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 2: that we need to be healthy in order to do that. 515 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 2: So I really encourage women to just get out and 516 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 2: walk and move so that you can have longevity. I mean, 517 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 2: we're not promised the days of our life. Only God 518 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 2: knows what those numbers. 519 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 4: Are for us. 520 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 2: But we certainly shouldn't sit around and do nothing just 521 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,639 Speaker 2: to have that be taken away from us quicker because 522 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 2: we didn't do the good things that we know we 523 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 2: should for our bodies. All of this Like, I love fitness, 524 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 2: I love good health, but it's not about trying to 525 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,880 Speaker 2: get people to look or weigh a certain way. It's 526 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 2: just about truly taking care of your body. Because if 527 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 2: you are a Christian, if you believe in Jesus, you 528 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 2: house the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit lives inside you. 529 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 2: And that's what being a temple is. It is literally 530 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 2: a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit. 531 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 4: And so if I know that. 532 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 2: God lives in here, man, I clean up my house 533 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 2: before my guests come over. 534 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 4: I tidy up. I want it to look good before 535 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:35,120 Speaker 4: they come over. 536 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 2: How could I not want to take care of the 537 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 2: inside if I'm housing God. 538 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 3: What a powerful message? 539 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: Absolutely, Absolutely, That's what I love about the conversations that 540 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:47,479 Speaker 1: you have. 541 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 3: That's what I really think that people need to hear. 542 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: When we heard you were doing a tour, I'm telling you, 543 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: the house was like, oh my gosh, it was so exciting. 544 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: But that's the part of it that I believe is 545 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: so important is to have those conversations with women that 546 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: are you are valuable and God thinks you're valuable, and 547 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 1: you show God that you love him and you believe 548 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 1: he is valuable too. I think that this revival that 549 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: we're seeing is really God seeking out the wand you know, 550 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: leaving the ninety nine and we're seeing him seeking out. 551 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 1: And that's when I heard, Yeah, that young woman say 552 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: to me, I want to know more about God. I 553 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: want to know about relationship. I want to look forward 554 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: to marriage. I was like, he is working so hard. 555 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: And I've had so many people say we feel so 556 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: divided right now, and I say to them all the time, 557 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: you feel divided right now because so many people are 558 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: turning to God that the devil has to work a 559 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: lot harder. 560 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 4: It's so good, it is so true. I feel so hopeful. Though. 561 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 2: The more people that I talk to, the more people 562 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 2: that even come up to me while I'm walking through 563 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 2: the airport or I'm walking to a restaurant, I'm surprised 564 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 2: in that it's been a lot more people that will 565 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 2: say to me like, thank you for your faith, thank 566 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 2: you for standing up, thank you for being bold. 567 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 4: And while I'm grateful for that and encourage. 568 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,479 Speaker 2: It just means that they are being emboldened, they hear it, 569 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 2: they see it, they're being inspired that they want to 570 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 2: just live out their life. That's a little bit bolder, 571 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 2: a little less apologetic for offending people. 572 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 4: It's not like any of us. 573 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 2: I mean, some people do, maybe, but I don't want 574 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 2: to go into the world looking. 575 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 3: To offend people. 576 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 4: And I'm not. 577 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 2: Always speak truth in love, and I think a lot 578 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 2: more people are going, yeah, I need to speak up 579 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 2: with that truth and how do I do it in 580 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 2: a loving way. 581 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break.
