There's a lot of those things. 47 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: I know you guys think we're geniuses. I know, I know. 48 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: Surprise now you think that we are bona fide PhD holders, 49 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: But surprise, I don't know shit. IM just kidding. I 50 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: know a lot, but got a lot more to learn. 51 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: I mean, we are experts in threesomes, shut up, cannabis 52 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: and mushrooms and three way kisses. 53 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: But other than that, we do have some learning to do. 54 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: We are actually recording in Costa Rica right now. Still 55 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: well not still, but yes, we're in Costa Rica. 56 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: It's actually our final night. We only have hours until 57 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 2: we leave. Yeah, we're leaving at five thirty in the 58 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 2: morning and it is nine fifty six pm. This feels 59 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 2: like the old times where we would record like at 60 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: eleven pm and release it at seven am and be 61 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 2: up until two trying to figure it out. 62 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: Trying to figure out why the audio won't sync to 63 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,839 Speaker 1: the video all that bullshit it does. 64 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 2: And also I don't know something about it being feeling 65 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 2: that way and it being late at night, even though 66 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 2: it's not true, it makes me feel like less people 67 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: are going to hear it, like it's more of a secret. 68 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: No, those days are done, I know, I know. 69 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: Unfortunately, do you have any affirmations for us this evening 70 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: or morning or afternoon, wherever you're catching this. My affirmation 71 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: for this week is I am always a student of life. 72 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: I am always a student of life. Oh boy, isn't 73 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 2: that shit true. We've been traveling for ten days with 74 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: our children, and obviously we've traveled with our children before, 75 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 2: but I feel like this time is a little bit 76 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 2: different because I don't know, it's been a long trip 77 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 2: and they're like a little bit older now, so like 78 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: I'm realizing that more. The things that they say, their memories, 79 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 2: the words that they use, it's like, oh shit, this 80 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 2: is like a real little human and it's like a 81 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 2: really apparent how different we all are. 82 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: Well because their personality, Yeah, their personalities are really shining through, 83 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: and some of the things that they're like working through 84 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: are shining through. And it's yeah, it's really it's blowing 85 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: my mind, to be honest, it really really is. It's 86 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: like beautiful, but also it's scary. I'm like, damn, like, 87 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: is this like a preface to teenage years? Like preteen years? 88 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 1: Just like how they act. Like Luna told me today, 89 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: my back broke out. I must have leaned up against something. 90 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: She's like, must be allergic to the fabric. I was like, 91 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 1: why does she know these combination of words? Who? Who 92 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: are you? Wow? 93 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: You're so smart. You're probably right. Yeah, but it's been 94 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 2: really challenging. It's been beautiful and blissful and like such 95 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: a beautiful trip to say, like last time we were here, 96 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: we're like, we're going to bring our kids back, and 97 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: then we bring them back and it's like we did 98 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 2: that shit. But it has been challenging. Like I have 99 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 2: very shortations. Kids make a lot of noise, a lot 100 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 2: of unnecessary loud noises, and I'm really working through that's 101 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: what you're learning. I'm learning like children make noise. It's 102 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 2: not their fault. But it has been challenging. I've learned 103 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 2: a lot on this strip. And you know what, I 104 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 2: don't know. There's something about this September twenty twenty one 105 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 2: that feels like something is shifting. Ever since that, ever 106 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: since that lasts that moon and the Lionsgate Moon, Like 107 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 2: I felt the shift there, but like I really feel 108 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 2: the shift now. I really feel like this next six 109 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: months I have to be dedicated to. 110 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: Committing to the change that I say I'm going to make. 111 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 2: And it just feels I feel really called to do 112 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: that in a lot of ways. 113 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: We're here like. 114 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 2: Making our plans for our retreat in February, finalizing shit, 115 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 2: and as we're curating this beautiful experience, I'm just like, Wow, 116 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 2: this is responsibility. 117 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: You know. 118 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 2: We're like embarking on this journey of wellness. And obviously 119 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 2: we keep a rail every week and that's our thing. 120 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: But it's just I'm noticing there's a lot of work 121 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 2: that I have to do on myself, and even if 122 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 2: it doesn't feel great, I have to do it. Like 123 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 2: I don't know, before I left, I was in like 124 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 2: a mini relationship that I didn't exactly plan for, and 125 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: I also really knew that it probably wasn't the relationship 126 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 2: for me. There were some red flags very early on 127 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 2: that we were very different people. But despite all of that, 128 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: I went towards the red light because my favorite color 129 00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 2: is red. And the night of the Lions Gate, I 130 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: made a I was doing like a ritual in the 131 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 2: bathtub with Luna, and I literally asked for the things 132 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: that no longer served me to be removed. And literally, 133 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: while I was in the bathtub, this person like looked 134 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: through my phone and like found some shit that really 135 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 2: wasn't some shit, And literally I have not talked to 136 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: him since. 137 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: The universe is like and cut scene. It's not funny, 138 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: I was, I'm not laughing, but I'm just saying. The 139 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: universe said like, I know you asked for this and 140 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 1: you shall receive. Bitch, I know, I know. 141 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 2: And I was like it was jarring, but also like god, damn, universe, bitch, relax, 142 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 2: give me atten ding notice. But I've been reflecting on 143 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 2: that since I've been here because a literally, as I 144 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: started to like this person in my mind, I was like, 145 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: this is a test. I told myself, like, this may 146 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 2: be a test because this person is kind of like 147 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 2: telling you he's probably not the person for you because 148 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,359 Speaker 2: we just had a lot of differences. 149 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 1: And yeah, just I don't know how to say, you're 150 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: ready to learn your lesson. 151 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 2: Essentially, essentially, I'm ready to learn my lessons and like 152 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 2: listen to my intuition when I know that my intuition 153 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: is correct, and then maybe, just maybe I'll prevent myself 154 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: from learning these difficult lessons in advance instead of eight 155 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: months later and being sad in Costa Rica because he 156 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 2: hasn't called me. It's sad a little bit, you don't 157 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 2: ever say anything. 158 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: I'm sad. I'm a cancer. 159 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 2: I'm sad inside alone. 160 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, friend, I know, I mean, I know we've 161 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: talked about it, but I didn't realize. I mean, obviously, 162 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: I know it's probably on your mind, but you haven't 163 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 1: mentioned it much. No, I mean because I know. Yeah. 164 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 2: So my lesson even before I left, is that I 165 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 2: need to listen to my intuition and just my overall 166 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,719 Speaker 2: attachment to things that sometimes don't feel great but only 167 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: let maybe feel somewhat good, and just my attachment to 168 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 2: things that distract me instead of focusing on myself and 169 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 2: doing the work to commit to myself so that in 170 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 2: the future, when things come up that are probably don't 171 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 2: serve me, it's easy to eliminate them because I have 172 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 2: done the work and I know that, Hey, I don't 173 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: deserve that, that's unnecessary. 174 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: I don't need that. So I'm good on you and 175 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: without any. 176 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 2: Residual feelings about whatever it is. Also, since we've been here, 177 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 2: we are finding healers and we've been doing some sessions, 178 00:10:52,520 --> 00:11:00,479 Speaker 2: some intuitive sessions, some natal chart sessions, a lot of sessions, 179 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 2: and they've provided some insight on myself and so I'm 180 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 2: committing to the next six months of committing to myself. 181 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 2: I'm signing up for a Tantra workshop to help channel 182 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 2: some of my energies. 183 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 1: That's so cool. I'm excited. I want I want to 184 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: do that at some point too. 185 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I feel like this is a good 186 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 2: time to focus on myself. And I'm telling you and 187 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 2: everyone else listening so that I could actually do the shit. 188 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 1: And in gids are our accountability partners. Literally, I mean 189 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: it's the truth. I think a lot of a lot 190 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: of the things that I've done and we've done together 191 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: on this podcast. And even like I just launched a 192 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: I launched a wellness challenge today. Actually it starts today 193 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: and I post about it on Instagram, a thirty day challenge. 194 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: I'm really doing it because you guys make like it's 195 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: like the best tribe ever to just hold each other accountable. 196 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: Like if you guys are posting pictures, I want to 197 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: come in to keep doing it, even if I'm lying 198 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: sometimes and I ate that you know, whole kind of 199 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: Ben and Jerry's half baked ice cream, but that might happen. 200 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, this is the best place. I'm 201 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: so grateful for like us having the space to for 202 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: people to hold us accountable and hold ourselves accountable, because 203 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: we're saying things on this mic every week and we're like, 204 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: you know, or every year, every year or every year. 205 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: I've literally said this every year, but this time I'm serious. 206 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 2: If I'm in a deep relationship, eight weeks from now, 207 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 2: somebody slap me. If you see me in public holding hands, 208 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 2: I give you all the permission. 209 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 1: Well, I think that going back to school, I mean, 210 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: is it's such an interesting thing because obviously our kids 211 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: are also going back to school, and I've been thinking 212 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: about that too, like that at some point we decide 213 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: that our education kind of ends, I think because obviously 214 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: the education system is not great all the time. People 215 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: are put in this system and expected to all learn 216 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: the same way, which is fucking ridiculous. And that's why 217 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: so many people end up hating school and not really 218 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: tapping into, like what their real purpose is because school 219 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: doesn't really teach you that. It just teaches you a 220 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 1: bunch of just I don't even know general shit that 221 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: really I didn't even need to know. But the idea 222 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: of being an adult and being able to tap into 223 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: yourself and figure out what it is that you're interested in, 224 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: what is that you want to work on, you know, 225 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: if you want to take a tantric class, if you 226 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: want to, you know, go back. My shout out to 227 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: my girl Ashley. She just got into like Harvard Online. 228 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: She's about to take a course and going back to 229 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: the school online. Like, there's just so many ways to 230 00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: kind of explore what your interests are as an adult, 231 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: and I think it's really important not only for you know, 232 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: your own well being, but also just for your kids. 233 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: For I mean for us. It's like this retreat has 234 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 1: really inspired me too, and meeting so many people here 235 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: that have I mean, being in Costa Rica, people are quiet, 236 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: they have time to kind of really decide what fulfills them, 237 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: you know, and it's like, I think being here again 238 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: always brings me that back to that. That's why I 239 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: love this place so much. 240 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 2: It is a very magical place and it is a 241 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 2: place of like quietness and expansion. I feel like we've 242 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 2: met a lot of people who have tapped into their 243 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 2: natural abilities, and in some ways it kind of gives 244 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: us permission to do the same, you know, Like what 245 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 2: am I good at? What do I want to learn 246 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: like what naturally are my my powers? You know?

I feel like 257 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 2: people here like really intentional about their words, Like I 258 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 2: don't feel like doing that, and no, and like people 259 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: are comfortable. 260 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: Saying no and also saying yes. 261 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: And even I think even for you and I we've 262 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 2: had obviously we're best friends and we talk about a 263 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: lot of stuff. But I feel like even in this 264 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 2: trip traveling with our children, and one thing about parents 265 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 2: is we're going to be sensitive is fuck about our 266 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: parenting about our children. That's not something you really discuss about, 267 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 2: you know, you have discussions about. But I think even 268 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: we've been vulnerable more in a space to be like Wow, 269 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 2: like this is I'm scared of this in my parenting. 270 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: Do you notice this? 271 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 2: And like, yeah, I do, And this is triggering because 272 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 2: of that, and like even in all spaces, and sometimes 273 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 2: that's not a comfortable even with someone you're close to 274 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 2: as a friend, is not a comfortable thing to discuss, 275 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 2: you know. But we've had even those conversations, and it's 276 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 2: interesting how being in a certain environment can contribute to 277 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 2: how you are and who you are and the people 278 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 2: you keep around you, because this place is really really, 279 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 2: really really brought some lessons to the forefront for me. 280 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: Oh me too for sure, especially as a parent, and 281 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: how I can support my child in her development and 282 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: working through certain things that maybe I noticed were there 283 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: for sure, but have been even more highlighted on this trip, 284 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: like really also seeing the differences our kids and like 285 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,360 Speaker 1: how wanted, like how one one thing is one thing 286 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: won't bother one where the other one is super affected, 287 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: and you know, it's just it's just been really enlightening 288 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: but also kind of terrifying a little bit because I 289 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: realized that I I do have shit to learn about parenting. 290 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: I do have shit to learn about leading my daughter 291 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,239 Speaker 1: in the right way in the most appropriate way. You know, 292 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: we had this guest on that's coming on next week 293 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: and she's an astrologer. I can't wait for you guys 294 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: to hear this episode. She actually read me, She read 295 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: me and Jamila's natal charts while we're here, and then 296 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: we asked her to come on the show and read 297 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: our kids natal charts so that we could, you know, 298 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 1: learn how to better parent them based on you know, 299 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,959 Speaker 1: certain things that we might not even realize are just 300 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: innately part of their who they're destined to be and 301 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: what their soul path is. But within that realizing that 302 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: me and Iri are very different in ways, and you know, 303 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: we've been we've been having kind of a struggle lately 304 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 1: with certain personality issues and I and she's she's been 305 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 1: having issues vocalizing like what is wrong whenever she gets 306 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: upset versus where Luna is very vocal and can tell 307 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 1: you like that hurt my feelings. I don't like that, 308 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 1: you know. And I was telling the astrologer and she 309 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: was telling she was basically telling me how I could 310 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: support my child more and literally like I was just 311 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: telling her. I was asking her, like what was wrong? 312 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: She was like, have you ever asked her, like, how 313 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: can you what can I do to make you feel 314 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: more loved? And I literally asked, So I asked that 315 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:46,360 Speaker 1: to Iri today and she responded immediately, which is where 316 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: whereas before I was wording it as what what's wrong? 317 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 1: Tell me what's wrong? And she wouldn't say shit. She 318 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: just said, I want to need you to be nicer 319 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: to me, and I said, okay, I'll be nicer to you, 320 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 1: but also you have to be nicer to me, and 321 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: it's and so we were talking about and actually it's 322 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: funny that it's not funny because everything that we do 323 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: is somehow aligned and where we are at. But I 324 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: was telling her, I was like, well, this is something 325 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 1: you have to work on, this is something we're working 326 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 1: on together. And then you know, I went around the 327 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 1: table and I asked Jamie, like, what are you working 328 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: on right now? Luna? What are you working on right now? 329 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 1: Because these are questions that like we don't ask our kids, right, 330 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: and like we should, right, and they need to know 331 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: that you're working on stuff.

How do I And then Luna. 346 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 2: Was like, you need to tell Iri to talk nicer 347 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 2: and to do this to that, and then Iri got 348 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 2: upset and then I was like they were crying and 349 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 2: I was crying. 350 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: We were all crying. I was crying. It was just 351 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: like like I redid say, She's like that really hurts 352 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: my feeling, Like that hurt my feelings. Luna and I 353 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: told Luna, and I was listening to Luna because Luna 354 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: was right. She was right, but it also wasn't really 355 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: the way she said it. Iri was getting I could 356 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: feel I refelt attacked, you know, and it wasn't constructive 357 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: at all. It wasn't being constructive even though I know 358 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: Luna like she had good intentions, but she was also 359 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 1: like trying to she was also kind of like trying 360 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 1: to help me a little bit. She was like she 361 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: was and you know, I don't know, it's. 362 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 2: Just it's just such a testimony of it is we're 363 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 2: all very different people. I'm very different from from Iri, 364 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 2: you know, me and Lenda are some of but still 365 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 2: very different people. She checks me all the time, and 366 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 2: it's just like we're never done growing, We're never done learning, 367 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 2: even from the small souls in our life, and like 368 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 2: that's the biggest lesson. Like they are just people that 369 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 2: came through us, Like, you know, we can influence them. 370 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 2: They're growing up in certain environments. We're trying to, you know, 371 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 2: obviously lead them to love and like kindness, but overall, 372 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 2: they are their own people. And it's just like, no 373 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 2: matter how me I am and how Erica Erica is, like, 374 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 2: we're all very different. 375 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: You know. 376 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 2: Ivy full follows rules. She's not fucking around about the rules. 377 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 2: We're all kind of break rolls a little bit. She's 378 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 2: very strict in who she is. You know, she knows 379 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 2: who she is, and it's just an interesting lesson and 380 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 2: obviously we're having a great time. But I'm just I'm 381 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 2: happy that this is the chapter I'm in right now 382 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: that I'm just paying more attention and being more present 383 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 2: and intentional and you know, understanding that everything in life 384 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: is a lesson my child. Your child is a lesson 385 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 2: to me. I'm triggered by her sometimes. I'm just taking 386 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 2: accountability and noticing when I'm triggered by things, exploring why, 387 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 2: being more conscious of like how I talk to Luna 388 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: and support her, and just really being conscious of not 389 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 2: brushing off children's feelings because that's what I'm used to, 390 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 2: That's what I'm used to from my childhood. And like 391 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 2: I realized that, like children being really catered to and 392 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 2: coddled sometimes is a trigger for me because maybe I 393 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 2: wasn't given that privilege, Like that wasn't the upbringing that 394 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 2: was I was supported in? 395 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: Really, And do you think I caughd Ale Iri? No, 396 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: I just it's me. It's like not even caddle. 397 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 2: But like if I like, that's just I didn't get 398 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,719 Speaker 2: that type of that childhood like at all. So like 399 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 2: I noticed even not even just like with you and 400 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 2: I even with other people like and I know it's 401 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: my own personal experiences, it's my own trauma. It's not 402 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 2: like it makes me uncomfortable. But that's because I wasn't 403 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 2: supported in that way. And I have to check myself 404 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 2: even with Luna, because she is six and she is 405 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 2: sassy and she is mature, but she's still six And 406 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 2: sometimes I forget that because again, I'm used to a 407 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 2: certain thing and you would think, like I'm thirty three, 408 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 2: like how long ago is that? But it still is 409 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:46,440 Speaker 2: something that I realized more now than ever that that's 410 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:47,719 Speaker 2: why it's triggering for me. 411 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think this trip has really highlighted 412 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: that parenthood is like it has all these stages, and 413 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm just like entering this new stage 414 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: where like, yeah, or does have feelings. She's very like 415 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: it's not she's resilient in her feelings, but there's there 416 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: is a level of like it sticks more now that 417 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 1: their memory isn't sticks more, hurt sticks more, The things 418 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: you say stick more, whereas before you could kind of 419 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: brush off their feelings a little bit. I don't want to. 420 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: It sounds irresponsible, but like you could kind of get 421 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: away with cause they forget right because they're like, oh whatever, No, 422 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: it's like no, now I'm starting to see the remnantss 423 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: of like me assuming that she's going to forget and 424 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 1: her not forgetting right, you know not and not that 425 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: I'm like intentionally doing that, but I don't know. And 426 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: then also like how do I support her? How do 427 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: I like work on her attitude? Like how do I 428 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 1: make her super aware of her attitude without like traumatizing 429 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: traumatizing her and making her feel bad, make her feel 430 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: bad about herself like she's not a good person, or 431 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: like she's a problem. She's the problem one of Luna 432 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: and her, like she's the one who's always getting called out, 433 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: and like even like even with the food thing, you 434 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like it's so annoying my daughter 435 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: is still like not eating anything. It's very fucking irritating, 436 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: and every dinner it's acknowledged, and it's like I realize that, 437 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: like that's not I have to acknowledge it at times, 438 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: but also like it's it's not helpful to keep making 439 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: her feel bad. 440 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 2: About it, like necessarily fixing I don't know to fix 441 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 2: it and so like, I don't know, I'm hoping this month. 442 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,199 Speaker 1: This month really, whether it's on the podcast or not, 443 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: it's one thing that I really have to I really 444 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: want to like talk to some other parents that are older, 445 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: that have older children, that have gone through these type 446 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: of behavioral issues and you know, just different things. My 447 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: daughter's gone through a few different a few things over 448 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: the past few years that I don't think I really 449 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: considered how they've affected her. Well, I don't. 450 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 2: I think just in general, we haven't. Really the culture 451 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 2: is not necessarily to think of a child like the 452 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 2: psychology of a child, how impressionable they are, the trauma, 453 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 2: even if we don't consider it trauma, Like that's not 454 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 2: our like our background, you know, Like I know people 455 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 2: who have been in therapy since they're they're like children 456 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 2: and that's normal in their households. That's not necessarily like 457 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 2: the norm. Because even you made a comment this trip 458 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 2: that there was a time like your mom would bring 459 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 2: up certain things and you couldn't, you could not talk. 460 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 2: I felt that like there was the same thing in 461 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 2: my household, like we would bring up stuff and I 462 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 2: just couldn't. I would just cry, like literally just cry, 463 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 2: and I thought about that too, like not like not 464 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 2: feeling like you can literally talk. You just have all 465 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 2: this emotion, you know, motion, and it's just like at 466 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 2: the drop of a dime you could just burst out 467 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: into tears and how like how much you know, I 468 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,199 Speaker 2: talk a lot, and I talk about here, but I 469 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 2: do struggle with like when things get like super deep 470 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,719 Speaker 2: about myself, I'm like, I don't necessarily want to talk 471 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 2: about it, especially not with like most people, like it's 472 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 2: maybe like three people, and like it's just it's not healthy. 473 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 2: And if we don't check ourselves down, we don't relearn 474 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 2: and reprogram those things, like we'll just create the same 475 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 2: shit in ourselves, you know, and our and our kids 476 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 2: that have been created in us.
