00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,639

Speaker 1: Darrylene Castillo, ethe Vital. Today is the day I never

11
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: thought would be here. Happy fifty episode, me hint it.

12
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: I literally had to double take when looking at our

13
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: Monita schedule because time has flown by and we have

14
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: had an incredible first season here. I cannot begin this

15
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: fifty the episode without thinking you are listeners who have

16
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: been so supportive. When I look back at our first

17
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: episode with a mare La Negra, I remember feeling so

18
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: nervous and anxious about stepping into this host position. It's

19
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: something I have never done, and y'all, I would have

20
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: nightmares about going blank and interviews and the thoughts of

21
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: judgment and how people would respond worrying about topics that

22
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,960
Speaker 1: might offend or maybe someone might just not understand. And

23
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: there were so many fears that I had to overcome

24
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: to step into this position. To see your own personal

25
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 1: growth is something that no one can take away from you.

26
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: So Morenita, I thank you for that personal growth and

27
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: this is a moment that I will cherish forever. Okay,

28
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: speaking of circle of life, personal growth and overcoming scary moments.

29
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: For our five oh episode, it only felt right to

30
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: have the Mada la Negra step back into the room

31
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: with us. Listening back to our first episode, A Mata

32
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: and I are not the same people we were back then.

33
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: Thank god. Amata is showing her personal growth within her

34
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: business mentality, her journey of motherhood with her beautiful twin girls.

35
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: How motherhood has changed her. The growth is real, you guys,

36
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,959
Speaker 1: and we love to see it. We discussed so many

37
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: fears that come along with stepping into motherhood and how

38
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: she has been overcoming those fears. This episode is all

39
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: about growth, and I think if we aren't bettering and

40
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,519
Speaker 1: challenging ourselves, then what are you doing? Going through? Challenges

41
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: and fears are tough, However, they can sometimes be necessary

42
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 1: in life. I just tweeted this the other day. Yeah yeah,

Speaker 1: grateful for every step I've taken back forward, side up down.

46
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,880

47
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 1: growth with that thing. VI is back in the room.

Speaker 1: a big believer in the circle of life, and UM,

54
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: I was just like, we have to have a model

55

Speaker 1: for the last episode because I think it's a great

56
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,720

57
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: And I believe that we are different people than we

00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: were yesterday, UM, and we're growing and we're evolving, and

59
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,480

Speaker 1: there's so much that it's going on in my life

65
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: that I think we can connect on and express and

66
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,200

Speaker 1: lot of people we feel like we're here forever, not necessarily.

131
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: You don't have to die just because of illness or

132
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: because of whatever the case may be. We're being old.

133
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,160

Speaker 1: to teach them how to take care of it and

139
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: how to administry it. Didn't handle it. So it's been

140
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: it's actually been really good for me. If we can sack.

141
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie. So you have blow down like

142

00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: there's so much you just said in there. Because I

00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: your voice. I'm not even kidding, Like I can hear

146
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,559
Speaker 1: the difference in your voice, like when you said you're hungry.

147
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: I'm like this. I can hear the hugger like I

150
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: every two hours, and it's like a little box. Not

193
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 1: I said, Maladay, not because of being a mom. It

194
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: was like in the main day, you know, you always

195

Speaker 1: have so many plans, and I'm like, ship, I have

196
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: my podcast, I have the reality. I finally lost weight

197
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: for thing. You know, you know, I've lost some weight.

198
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: I'm looking good banks and stuff. And I was feeling

199
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: momento and then it's like you're pregnant. And then not

200
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: only that, but in the moment when I found out

201
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: that I was pregnant, I went to this moment of depression. Um,

202
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: because I had a miscarriage, and in that miscarriage, I

203
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: didn't know that I was actually pregnant of triplets. And

204
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: I remember seeing a lot of blood cloths and it's

205
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: really dark blood, like just a lot, like you know,

206
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: it's like I thought it was like when you have

207
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: your period. It's like, okay, well here he goes. You know,

208
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: you you spot a little bit, and then I'm like,

209
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 1: these spots are getting like it's really heavy for it

210
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 1: being just the beginning. And then it's really dark and

211
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: it's clotted, and I'm like, what is going on? I

212
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: called my mom because my mom and I are super close.

213
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, Mom, what is this? And she was like no, no, oh,

214
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: so yeah, I was going through it. I was super

215
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: depressed when I found out that I actually had a miscarriage,

216
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:22,559
Speaker 1: and I cried and I told my mom, you know, like,

217
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 1: I feel like I lost my opportunity. I feel like,

218
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 1: you know, I lost my opportunity of being a mom

219
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: because I'm already in my thirties, well early thirties. I'm

220
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 1: gonna I'm thirty one now. But um, and then I

221
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: found out when I go to get a sonogram, because

222
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 1: what they call, you know, they clean you out of

223
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: whatever else maybe left. They're like, wait, let's do a

224
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: vaginal sonogram. And then when they do it, they're like wait, wait, wait,

225
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,599
Speaker 1: there's two left, two left, and they're like we no, no,

226
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 1: we see two more sacks. There's two more sacks. And

227
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: that's when we found out that we had lost one baby,

228
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: but we still actually had two sacks left. So um,

229
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 1: those were my girls and sell. The truth is me

230
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: that adapting to the reality of you know, now your

231
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: life is gonna change. I didn't realize or adapt. So

232
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: I had my babies, and even when I gave birth,

233
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: postpartum is real. I want everybody to know this. Shout

234
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 1: out to the girls and the women out there that

235
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: have gone through it and they've overcome it, but postpartum

236
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: is real. I had my babies. I was, you know,

237
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: excited because I knew what was happening, but I didn't

238
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: understand it. It's like I wanta you know what I'm saying.

239
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: You see holds, and then all of a sudden, it's

240
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: like two things just came out of me. It's like,

241
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: what is this? You know. I was in the hospital bed.

242
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: I remember seeing my babies and I kissed. I'm like, oh,

243
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 1: you guys are so cute, and I was just like

244
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 1: here to see them back. And I didn't really hold

245
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 1: my babies like that for a second. Um. Also, my

246
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: babies were premature, underweight, so I didn't get to hold

247
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: my babies. It was like they take them right away

248
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: into the incubators. My babies were in the hospital and

249
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 1: the incubator for like two weeks. I didn't get to

250
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 1: take them home with me right away either, so it

251
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: took me a second to actually connect with that the

252
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,679
Speaker 1: truth is, you know, I'm indeed I sucked up. I

253
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: fucked up my career, in my life. What am I

254
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: doing now? I'm a mother? People are not gonna see

256
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: Joe fedo, Um, the truth is me not No matter what,

257
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: at one point in life, you're going to have to

258
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: have your children. Not everyone, some people choose not to.

259
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: For those that choose not to have children's shout outs

260
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: to you. But at one point in life you will

261
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: have to do it. And there's no perfect time. With

262
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: going through this experience, you will always have a project,

263
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: you will always have a purpose, you will always want

264
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,280

267
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 1: you plan. Just because you get married doesn't mean that

00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,120
Speaker 1: You know I've always sent her like videos on Instagram

307
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: of like wedding dresses. I'm like, oh my god, Mom,

308
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: I want to be her like I want to dress

309
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 1: like her, yo, son of doing that first, I wanted

310
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 1: it in that pattern, in that order I want to

311
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: have I want to get married, but then I want

312
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: to have a home, and then I want children. But

313
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 1: things didn't turn out to be that way. Um, I'll

314
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: say this much things didn't even turn out to be

315
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: the way that I plan with my the father of

316
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: my children, regardless of the things that may have happened.

317
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 1: Um I I love him for giving me my daughters,

318
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: you know. But God also puts people in your life

319
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: for a reason, in that season, for a purpose. His

320
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: purpose was to give me my daughters, you know, and

321
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: I am so grateful for that. So there's no perfect book,

322
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: there's no rule book on how to live your life.

323
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: Things happen and as they go, that's how you grow,

324
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: You mature, and that's how life builds your character. But

325
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: the experiences that you live, you just have to know

326
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: how to handle it. Whether you do it maturely or not,

327
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: it's really up to you, uh, the way that you

328
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,280
Speaker 1: want to handle that situation. So I came out and

329
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: I just told people, Hey, you know, I'm excited. I'm pregnant.

330
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: You know, I'm having twins. I didn't even I didn't

331
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: even publicly announced with the father my children was in

332
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 1: the beginning because we were in a very rocky stage.

333
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,440
Speaker 1: Later on, you know, um I announced it because I

334
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: felt like okay, yes, no, or you never wanted a

335
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: publicly say you know who our father was you know what. Yes,

336
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: I was in a relationship with this person for two years.

337
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: This is the father of you know, my daughters, and

338
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: we're not together at this moment in life, like many

339
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: people have been, you know, you know. But it was

340
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: a little bit hard because I felt like people were

341
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: going to judge me. I think people judge me more

342
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: for their names that they then they did for me

343
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: actually being pregnant. Really yeah, I thought it was. I

344
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: liked it. I don't know what, girl, And if you

345
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 1: were to find out the names I got from my

346
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: from my kids, my other two kids, girl, wait wait

347
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 1: wait wait wait wait wait wait wait, we're not so

348
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: we're not done, and we're like, we're thinking, you know,

349
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: we want a big family. We want to gi Yeah,

350
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: we want to, especially especially because I know that I

351
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: got that snap back real good girl, you can do

352
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: this again? Yeah for sure. Yeah. Okay, even they're expensive.

353
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: Look at Rihanna, Rihanna is going back to work finally. Okay,

354
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. These kids are expensive something

355
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: you know also, But it's a lot mena am I

356
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 1: do want to have a big family. I do. I'm

357
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 1: an only child. I was raised by my mom as

358
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: an immigrant in the United States by herself. I wasn't

359
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: raised around any cousins or grandparents or uncles or anything,

360
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: so I never knew what that felt like. That's why

361
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,200
Speaker 1: I always had like a really bad relationship with like

362
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and Christmas and stuff like that, because I hated

363
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: seeing everybody in the stupid little family everybody. I have one.

364
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: So now I feel like I want to be able

365
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 1: to create that experience that I never lived. I wanna

366
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: I want to be able to Okay, it also done

367
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 1: by Yore, you know that that side. And God gave

368
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 1: me you know what here, he gave me two babies,

369
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 1: two girls. It's a SYTHI mental that I had a

370
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: being by myself. You know, you guys have each other.

371
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: And I want to be able to have more children,

372
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: at least probably two more, hopefully twin boys. Oh my god,

373
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't that be sickening? Honestly, can I say something? So?

374
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: I think that like you're living the dream because so

375
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: like to have twins. I don't know a lot of

376
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: a lot of people might disagree with me on this,

377
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: but I'm like, come on, you have twins, Like that's

378
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: like a two for one. That's a two for one special. Yes,

379
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 1: one by one, get one free love sale. I love

380
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,239
Speaker 1: a sale better. But you know what my girls were,

381
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: My girls came in naturally. I want to say that,

382
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: you know, twins running my father said of the family,

383
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: and they also run in the father's side of the family. Strong. Yeah,

384
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: he has twin brothers and his brother also had a

385
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 1: pair of twins, and so the twins just running the family.

386
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: That happened naturally. But I don't I'm not saying and

387
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: I'm not going to have kids with him again. So

388
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that my next you know, kids will

389
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: be in boys obviously because of him. Battle. I am

390
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 1: willing to be open minded to go and you know

391
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, put in the refrigerator. Okay, okay, we're

392
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 1: putting them in the fridge for women. Yeah, modern women.

393
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: Angsh freezer. You're going boom boom. And then I'm gonna keep,

394
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: you know, making the palace grow. And how soon are you?

395
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, let's be real. Even when I

396
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: know I shouldn't, I still give myself a timeline, you

397
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, yes, my timeline for having

398
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: kids was at thirty um, and I did that to

399
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: do once, so I think that I did good because

400
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 1: sometimes I'm gonna tell the truth. As a businesswoman, I'm

401
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: so career driven that sometimes you get so caught up

402
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: that you forget the true meaning of life and what

403
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: really matters. You know, material things are a beautiful thing.

404
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: Living in a luxury home, luxury car bags. I have

405
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars worth of bags stuck in a closet univolo,

406
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 1: like you know better when all that ship is gone.

407
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 1: For example, I'm hearing the Dominican Republic now, I have

408
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: no makeup, I have no nothing. Um I could be

409
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 1: having anywhere, and there's nothing cooler and doper than to

410
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: just be with the people that you love, with the

411
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: people that you care for. Sitting in Komalo in a

412
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: corner somewhere, you're just listening to some music and everybody's

413
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 1: just happy, that joy, that happiness. There's a lot of

414
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: people that have a lot of money and are miserable

415
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 1: as hell, and there's also a lot of people that

416
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: are very you know, they come from poverty, that are

417
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: happy and you know, humbly. I think it's important to

418
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 1: find that balance. And social media and society now drives

419
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: us even further away from the true meaning of life

420
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: and pulls us into, you know, the materialistic lifestyle and

421
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 1: all this fantasy world that it's unrealistic. You know, you

422
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: work to gain money, just to pay bills, just to

423
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,159
Speaker 1: buy things, because things are so important. So I don't know,

424
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: I just want to have a family. I want I

425
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: want to feel loved. I want to feel cared for.

426
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: I want that same love that I have for my mother.

427
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: I want to know that somebody feels that way about me,

428
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: that God forbids something where to happen to me. You're

429
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: gonna hold me down because you love me, so you know, unconditionally,

430
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 1: you love who I am as a person. So I

431
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: really wanted to have my kids like back to back.

432
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. I really wish that it could

433
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: have been with him, only because I wanted all my

434
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 1: children to be from the same father. But that's okay too.

435
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes things don't work out that way, and

436
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: maybe God will put this, you know, a man that

437
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: is willing to be a good father for my daughters

438
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 1: as well, and I'll have my you know, set of

439
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: twins boys with him. You gotta be open, you definitely do,

440
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: especially in this climate of life. So one thing that

441
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 1: I'm realizing is that and and and I'm also asking

442
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 1: you this question as well, but I'm hearing it a

443
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: little bit in you have your children that you've had,

444
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: like these girls, have they really grounded you? Have they

445
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: made you realize a bit more of like what's important

446
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: in life? Has that kind of that seems to be

447
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 1: like that's been magnified for you. They made me calm

448
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: the hell down. They made me take moments of peace

449
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 1: and quiet, even if it's just to lay in bed

450
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: with no TV, no phone and just look at them.

451
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: They made me realize, like even when I see them

452
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 1: that they're so happy, They wake up so excited just

453
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: for nothing. Sometimes they could just look at me and

454
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,159
Speaker 1: just be happy and smile, and I'm like, why are

455
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: you so happy? But to know that I am bringing

456
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: that joy that happiness to them just for me being me,

457
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: they definitely have made me way much more grounded, Not

458
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: that I wasn't before, but it's a different type now, right.

459
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: It's so it's I'm it's like a grown woman energy.

460
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: Even the way that you talk, whether you express yourself,

461
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: even the way the things that used to matter before

462
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: they don't matter anymore. The arguments. I've learned to choose

463
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 1: and pick my battles, you know way better now. But

464
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: now it's like, it is it really worth it? Because

465
00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: if I get out of this chair and I slept

466
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: the ship out of you, I'm gonna put my babies

467
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: in jeopardy. So you know what, I'm gonna let you slack,

468
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 1: so you think about them before you think about yourself.

469
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:16,200
Speaker 1: What makes sense for them. It's like, you know, you're

470
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: only gonna go down from here. I know we're still young.

471
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: We're still young. I get it, But at the same time,

472
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: we gotta be realistic, like we ain't gonna we ain't

473
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: getting any younger. It's only but gonna get a little

474
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,959
Speaker 1: bit tougher. You're gonna have to have more responsibilities. You're

475
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: gonna have to start being more grown. Because some things

476
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 1: are cute when your twenties, some things are still cute

477
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: in your thirties. Like okay, okay, but but yeah, cut

478
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 1: it off. I'm saying, yeah, you're you're pushing it. You're

479
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 1: pushing it. So so now it's like, yeah, I goes, okay,

480
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: it's not that funny anymore. Like now you have to

481
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: be about your grown woman ship, like, get it together?

482
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: It is what it is? All that fun ship. Yeah,

483
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: it's done. If you didn't do it before, too late.

484
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: Now you need to focus and what is your life

485
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,520
Speaker 1: looking like for the next ten years, the next twenty years?

486
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: What is your goal? What is your purpose? Financially? What

487
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 1: are you gonna do for your kids? If you die tomorrow,

488
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: who are you going to leave them with? What is

489
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,959
Speaker 1: their future gonna look like? You know? Are you creating

490
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 1: anything for retirement, which a lot of the youth doesn't

491
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 1: even think about that anymore. Do you have a testament?

492
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: Do you have a will? Do you know? Do you

493
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: have your PaperWorks in order? What are you doing? You know?

494
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 1: It's like, what's the point of having all this fame

495
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 1: and now there's other ship if you're not using it

496
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: to monetize to do anything important out of it. Meanwhile,

497
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 1: you have these girls, with all due respect on freaking

498
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: only fans, showing their toes, making thousands of dollars. If

499
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna be that girl, you better figure something out,

500
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 1: you know. So that's just what it is. It just

501
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: definitely makes you what do you envision and like the

502
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 1: legacy that you leave for your babies and your and

503
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 1: your children. Um, and I also I'm also gonna throw

504
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: this in there. Would you approve of them having involvement

505
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: like in the entertainment industries is something that you want

506
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: to keep them away from. What are your feelings around that? No, no, no,

507
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: no no, this is not an option. You guys are

508
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: going to be part of the entertation now you are that.

509
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 1: I don't care in the moment I was pregnant, the

510
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 1: moment that first publication came out, and then the magazine

511
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 1: People magazine, be pregnant from the embryo. You don't want

512
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 1: to do it too bad or you get grown and

513
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: they'll say, you just said what you want to do

514
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: with your life. In the meantime, you're cute. Okay, you're cute.

515
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 1: Let's monetize out of this. You're gonna think me later. Um.

516
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: A lot of people are like you know, they want

517
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: to keep their kids away from it. This is how

518
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 1: I see it. Your mother is in the pace that

519
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: she is in life, and she's being able to give

520
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: you the lifestyle that you have because of the entertainment industry,

521
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: because of who I am, because of my talent, because

522
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: of the way I've learned to administrate and manage my career,

523
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to deal with it, no matter

524
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: how much to try to hide you from it. It's

525
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: worse to hide you. I don't want to hide you.

526
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: I want to expose you to it. I want to

527
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 1: expose you to everything. I want to expose you to sports,

528
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 1: to music, to art, to science. I'm never gonna tell

529
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: you don't do that. No, No, you wanna throw yourself

530
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: over bridge, I'm gonna throw you know, let me wrap

531
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: you from your feet and you like the feeling. Okay, Well,

532
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: maybe you want to create a spaceship. I don't know,

533
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: but I want to be that mom that's open minded,

534
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 1: like I never want to tell you know you want

535
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 1: to podcast that they're welcome from Let's let's let me

536
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,320

00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: many talented, amazing people out there, super smart people out

539
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: there that were never given an opportunity because their parents

540
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: were always there, denying them from their dreams, you know,

541
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: whatever it is they want to do. But at least

542
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: by me giving you this exposure and will also give

543
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: you some type of financial stability that you can use

544
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: that to do what you want. I've already created a

545
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: bank account for them literally a month, you know, after

546
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: they were born, and they they got their savings already, okay,

547
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 1: and they're really getting They're really getting booked for m

548
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: booked for magazine covers and things like that, baby brands,

549
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: and they're only six months. I really, I really do

550
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: think it's important. Some people are like to make money. No,

551
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 1: I am creating their future, you know what I'm saying.

552
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: What's the point of hiding them. I don't want to

553
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: hide them. See manyana they don't want to do it.

554
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: That's on them. But at least you have a couple

555
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: of grand here. You have a couple of grand here.

556
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: I know you didn't want to do it, but guess what,

557
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 1: all those little commercials and all those little things, all

558
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 1: little gigs that you did, now you got three hundred,

559
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: five hundred thousand dollars each that you pick what you want.

560
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: And I also just looking at them because the mother knows,

561
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: not for nothing but that that ship is true, that

562
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,239
Speaker 1: mother instinct. I don't know how, I don't know how

563
00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 1: that happens. But you have a kid, you know, like

564
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: your mom just be knowing stuff. Right. I guess she

565
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: can look at you like something's wrong. You're like, nothing's wrong.

566
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 1: There's a connection that you just know. And from me

567
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: looking at my kids, I already see one of them

568
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: specifically that she was born for this period, my other baby,

569
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: because you know it's Yin and Yang my other baby. Um,

570
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: she's cool, she's laid back. You know, she's a chill baby.

571
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: You know, Hey, it is what it is. I'll do it.

572
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: But whatever, right the other one, Oh, she's with the

573
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: ship's all day's already. You're like, world, you will have

574
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 1: to wait and see. But she's my little Beyonce. I

575
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: called it first. You're like, I saw it, I did it.

576
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 1: I was giving you all the boom cat cats. Yeah.

577
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:49,120

618
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: I mean, one of the things I susly I'm not

619
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: gonna lie as genetics and nature, but I'm being for

620
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: some reason, when I dressed like in workout clothes, it

621
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 1: makes me feel healthier, like I make I don't know,

622
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: it's like a It's like, um, absolutely, it's like I

623
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,479
Speaker 1: put my gym clothes on. I'm like, yeah, I didn't

624
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,359
Speaker 1: go to the gym today, but I feel fabulous about

625
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: what I did. Said yeah, I feel, I feel I

626
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:21,799
Speaker 1: feel like I want to have like a protein shake.

627
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: You know, I'm okay, I feel litt bit healthy. Let's

628
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 1: let's have a salad. Come, okay. I don't know. So

629
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, you know what I'm gonna do

630
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 1: a body by a mata, and um, I'm putting that

631
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 1: out as well. I mean, I've really gotten more into

632
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 1: the business side of me away from the entertainment industry,

633
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: which is I still love, but I want to I

634
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 1: wanted to be able to do things and create things

635
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 1: that didn't necessarily you know, needed my presence, um but

636
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: can still get the job done. And then obviously, once

637
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: I have all these things rolling, and then I want

638
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: to focus a thousand percent back into my music, my career,

639
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: which is my first love. But now I also have

640
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: to be realistic and think I also have other other

641
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: responsibilities that require stability, you know, and sometimes the entertainment

642
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 1: industry can be very unstable. You're hot today, you may

643
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: not be hot tomorrow. You have a gig today, you

644
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,799
Speaker 1: don't have it tomorrow, and it's kind of hard because

645
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 1: the bills don't stop. You definitely don't, okay. So basically,

646
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,839
Speaker 1: just you know, diversifying my my business and my art. Yeah,

647
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 1: longevity and working smarter and not harder. And listen, Amata,

666
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: is exactly a mata, exactly a mata on my heart.

667
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 1: I'm out there every week, you know, being exactly me.

668
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: It's spontaneous, really real and honest and oh am unfiltered, uncensored.

669
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: It is what it is when I talk a little

670
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 1: bit about everything, you know, but I love being able

671
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 1: to connect with people. And like I said, do you

672
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: see how many businesses and how many things I have

673
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 1: going on? And then now I am a mother of two,

674
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: There's no way. I don't even know. If God would

675
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: funnily give me a husband, I don't even know how

676
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 1: I would handle that. That's why sometimes you'll be thinking

677
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,320
Speaker 1: that you know what you want, but God is like,

678
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 1: this ain't the time, because I don't think I could

679
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: juggle every anything at the same time. Right now. It's

680
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: just a lot of my plate. But it's a blessing.

681
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm sacrificing, Um, some of my years,

682
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,760
Speaker 1: some of my youth, creating this perfect We're not perfect,

683
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 1: but creating the lifestyle, the vision that I have of

684
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,960

712
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: what reminds me of home? It's the smell of sasson

713
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 1: for sure. No matter how boogie my house is and

714
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 1: how many candles I buy and I make it everything

715
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,959
Speaker 1: really cute. Whenever my mom's around, which is all the time,

Speaker 1: it always smells like go yeah, Maggiela and like Sofrito.

717
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: So definitely that and home, I would say, just my

718
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: bed sheets. There's just something about being in bed. I

719
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 1: feel like that's the same feeling for everyone, no matter

720
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 1: how many places you may sleep in, there's nothing like

721
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: your own bed and your own toilet. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

722
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. Like you can go

723
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: to anybody else's bathroom, but it's not the same like

724
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 1: in your house. Right. I really felt that though. When

725
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: you said that, I really was like, oh my god,

726
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: I've never thought about that. That is so you don't

727
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: think about it until your home. That's the thing. When

728
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 1: your homes just everything it just like relaxes. It's like

729
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: we're home, But when you're at somebody else's house. You

730
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: never feel comfortable like that's like just you know what

731
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 1: I'm saying, be yourself. I love that. Honestly, I think

732
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,560
Speaker 1: that's the best answer, and I'm so glad you're closing
