No, I love 207 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: it sometimes, No, I genuinely love it. I think it 208 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: was just after the hours of small talk and then 209 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: having you come out to be then seeing that I 210 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: was just like, okay, yeah, but because we don't have 211 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: a we're not doing Christmas party, I feel like we 212 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: should do something with the kids. Like what do you mean, 213 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 1: I don't like throw a throw a Christmas party like 214 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: just us. Yeah, we were sweaters. I would love that, 215 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: like an ugly Christmas party sweater. I love it. And 216 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: we can watch like Frosty the Snowman. That sounds like 217 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 1: a great idea. Are we gonna do something for New 218 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: Year's a big deal for you? I love New Year's 219 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: But right now, let's just focus on Christmas, um and 220 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: making sure that we have our clorox during Christmas time, 221 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: because with you know, everything that's going to get a 222 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: little messy with like our gingerbread houses and the dogs 223 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 1: and the kids. Were happy to have our clerks in 224 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: hand with us is Zara if you say, I was 225 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: like adamant about a Christmas tradition, like what like maybe 226 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: I was and it was like I want to go 227 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: back to Virginia every year. M I would that would 228 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 1: be a would you have told me that before we 229 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: got married or after? I don't know, I just you know, 230 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: I feel like holiday traditions like there's it's one of 231 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: those things where you don't talk about early stages in 232 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 1: a relationship until the holidays. There maybe if you're dating 233 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: and it's around a holiday, you mentioned like holiday traditions, 234 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: but you still might not know the severity of what 235 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: of of it for that person, like yeah, I typically 236 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 1: go home and then you get married, Like no, I 237 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: go home every year. I feel like that one's a 238 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: big ask as well as like a tradition in my 239 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: mind is like a big cookies with Jolie every year. 240 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: Or you know, we now have our new tradition when 241 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: we watch a Christmas movie every week until Christmas. But 242 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: your question is if that was your tradition of I'm 243 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: not saying me specifically. I just think the topic of 244 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: you know, new relationships and having these traditions around holidays 245 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: and how people navigate those. I think it's just about 246 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: like adapting in and also compromising too, like because I 247 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: think if just say, like I have to be home 248 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: every year for Christmas, that's a really big gass when 249 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: you start to have kids and you know, you're get 250 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: you're married, and you've got young ones, Like that's that 251 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: to me is a kind of a tall order if 252 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: you're far away from home. Um. But I think other traditions, 253 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: I think it's just one of those things where you know, 254 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: you say it's really important to you, and then you 255 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: kind of meet in the middle. And I mean, shoot, 256 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: most Christmas traditions I'm off or I love Christmas time. 257 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: I mean, once you have kids, it's it's that's when 258 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: everything changes, you know. And if you're if your family 259 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: isn't local, you've got to have your own traditions at home. Yeah, 260 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: Which you know, if you were to say like that 261 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: was something like you have to have every year, I'd 262 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: have been like, how could you even you don't? It's 263 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: just such a hard one, Like how do you even like? 264 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: You know, I would be like no, because I've got 265 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: family I want to see too, or you know, I 266 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: want to stay home like I want to I want 267 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: to create my own traditions, like with the kid the kids, 268 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: and that's those are the traditions. Like we're just finding 269 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: out our traditions and I think that's yeah, Like right 270 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: now we're creating our own traditions, and I think that's 271 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: cooler than anything in my in my mind. But when 272 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: Jason Jolie start to have families, are you gonna want 273 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: them to come to our house? Are you gonna be 274 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: open at traveling to them? Oh, wherever they could have me? 275 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: Like I I'm I don't care at all, Like I 276 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: just want to be And that's the thing, Like, you know, 277 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: we had our traditions growing up, and like in my mind, 278 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: you have your traditions when you grow up. Then you 279 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: have your traditions when you start a family and you 280 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: have kids of your own, and then when your kids 281 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: go and have kids of their own, then you have 282 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: to recreate your whole new tradition, you know, and and 283 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: seeing what that looks like. Um, so yeah, of course, 284 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: I mean I want to, you know, hopefully be invited 285 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: to their house. Um would love for them to come home, 286 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: and you know, maybe we can figure out something that 287 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: works for everyone. But obviously I understand that their wives 288 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: and husbands are going to have a say and they 289 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: have family they have to visit to, and that's when 290 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: we have to create our own new traditions. And maybe 291 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: we're like, you know what, we're in Florida, we're not 292 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: vacation kids. See you later.

Okay, I have 326 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: to think where we are in the season, So i'll 327 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: because I'll slip up and say something I'm not supposed to. Well, 328 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: where Okay, So I I just caught up on the 329 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: treadmill this morning and they just had so Bennett is 330 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: that his name? Bennett? He went away and then he 331 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: then he just came back. Um, but I like Ben 332 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: and Zach I think his name is. I like those too, 333 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 1: because they're like they've been through stuff, but they're they're 334 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 1: open enough to like vulnerable share. But I don't know. 335 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: Do you think Zach kind of reminds you of Nick 336 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: a little bit? No? Oh my gosh. I never even 337 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: thought about that until you just said it. Watch some 338 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: of his watch some of his manner mannerisms. I just 339 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: feel like he has that kind of like coy, you know, 340 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: cool but also like you like, intriguing kind of thing. Yeah. 341 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: Maybe because I'm not into that, you don't say. To 342 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: be honest, I think he is good. I think they 343 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 1: I don't see the chemistry, but I can tell she 344 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 1: really likes him and he really likes her, so like 345 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,159 Speaker 1: that's what they say. I just like don't feel the 346 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: chemistry between them, not the way that she is with 347 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: like a Bin or a Brendan. There just seems to 348 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: be a different level of attraction. Maybe that once infatuation, 349 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: maybe it's love. I don't know. Bennett is my absolute favorite. 350 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: I know I'm on the minority, in the minority of 351 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: this one. I love bin It. You do not for 352 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: Tastia for me as it's like as I mean, he 353 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: is pure entertainment. He's really funny. What's the show gonna 354 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: be without bin It? It's selfish reasons. He is not 355 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: for Tastia by any meaning. But he's my favorite. And 356 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: I like Riley. Which one's Riley? Right? At least the 357 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 1: attorney has the probably gotten that much screen time. He's black, 358 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: he's an attorney. He's the one who had the name. 359 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 1: His name, wasn't. I like him a lot? So in 360 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: the beginning, I wasn't sure like I didn't. I was 361 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: just like him and Claire, I don't, I just like 362 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: I could just there was no chemistry. But I see 363 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: the chemistry with Tatia, and I'm really glad that he's 364 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: like opening up. That was the one where his mom 365 00:20:55,080 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: left him, right, Yes, he changed name and all that. Yeah, No, 366 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see if she takes him on the 367 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: home dates. But I'm really invested in with I know, sorry, 368 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 1: did you have Let me just say this because I 369 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: have the kind of personality where if I was to 370 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: be the bachelor, I like you and have these extraordinary 371 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: dates that when I pick you know the man and 372 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: it's normal, I feel like my expectations would just be 373 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: like like I would be like this is it? Like 374 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: it's not this like big dreamy moment, and I don't know, 375 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: I feel like everything would be kind of like a 376 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: letdown afterwards. Did you experience any of that or no? No, 377 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: because maybe I wanted something different. So I think that's 378 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: no one's ever talked to me about it in this way, 379 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: And I think it's really interesting because I was so 380 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: big on not getting caught up in how grandy ghosts 381 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: everything is, like in real life, we're not flying in 382 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 1: hot air balloons and jet setting across the country, And 383 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: so my thought process was who makes sense in real life? 384 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 1: Who can I do absolutely nothing with and have a 385 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: fantastic time when you take away all the glips and glamor, 386 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: Like I would constantly say, you know, I don't look 387 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: like this right faceol makeup, I never wear ballgowns. I'm 388 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: in sweats, Like I need you to understand how I 389 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: am in everyday life. So that was I had tunnel 390 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: vision when it came to that, Yeah, that makes sense. 391 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just for me, it's like, yeah, 392 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: I'm the sweat wearing girl too. But I think sometimes 393 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: I have these greater expectations that I think that, like, 394 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: my husband's going to do this, and then I'm like, 395 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: and then I have to almost fight with my own expectations. 396 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:42,719 Speaker 1: What do we read in a book the other day? 397 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: What was like it's like the death of expectations, Like 398 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: you almost have to kill expectations because it can just 399 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: affect everything. But now that you're newly married, how has 400 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: the quarantine change jaralls relationship for the good and the bad? 401 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 1: So oh, I want to say something that you said 402 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: about I want now I want to read this book 403 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: the depth of expect I have. I don't set expectations 404 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: maybe goals, so I and because I have learned that 405 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: I don't do well with being let down, like almost 406 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 1: like a child throwing a temper tantrum, So I purposely 407 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: don't really set high expectations and then I'm always beautifully 408 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: surprised instead of being let down. If that makes sense. 409 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: That's that's how I like trick myself. Um, I canna 410 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: read that so quarantine. So for us, quarantine has been 411 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: you know, like not taking away from what's going on 412 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: in the world and just focusing on me and Brian. 413 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: It was the silver lining and all of this for 414 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,919 Speaker 1: us because I'm always gone. So it was like we 415 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: were living this long distance relationship and for the first 416 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: time in our relationship marriage, I was still and I 417 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: was present, and so for six months I was in Miami. 418 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: We were together every single day. We got into this 419 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: routine and it can be a scary place because as 420 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: we see, a lot of couples didn't survive quarantine because 421 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: you're kind you can't escape your relationship kind of face 422 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: with the reality of it, the good, the bad, ugly, 423 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: and it's definitely all those things. But for us, we 424 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: just kind of got back to the basics. We have 425 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: a lot of the same things in comments, so it's 426 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: like we would He went to work every day, so 427 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: maybe that helped to we had the separation um because 428 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: he was considered an essential worker, so he did his thing, 429 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: I did my thing. At the end of the day, 430 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: we would come together, whether it was binge, watching a show, 431 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: watching sports, or playing board games or things like that. 432 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,959 Speaker 1: Having zoom calls with our family members. Um, yeah, so 433 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: it was. It's been really good to get back to 434 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: the basics for us. But then it became really hard 435 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: when I moved to l A for extra because now 436 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: we're by postal and it's we've gotten so used to 437 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: each other, almost dependent in a way. We've never had 438 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 1: dependency in our relationship until quarantine, and we kind of 439 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: liked it. I did. If you had told me, I 440 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: would have said, no. Experiencing it. Yeah, you know, that's 441 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: the thing. It's there can be some good dependency on 442 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,719 Speaker 1: one another. And I feel like Jan and I we 443 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: we never had like codependency or dependency on our past relationships, 444 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 1: at least from you know what I mean, Like never 445 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: really cared that much what the other person thinks in 446 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: a not an unhealthy way, but in a healthy way 447 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: because you love them so much and you want them 448 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: to be happy. I must feel like we had like 449 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: bad codependency though we did. Yeah, we had to work 450 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: our way. We got so intertwined. It was code like 451 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: true codependency, and we've had to work our way back 452 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: out and be side by side going the same direction, 453 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 1: which I think we are now. Um, but no, that's great, 454 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: that you Rachel that you guys were able to have 455 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: that time and really benefit from it and kind of 456 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 1: take a step back from all that noise around the 457 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: publicity that you guys get and having to travel into 458 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: appearances and do all this. It was like you could 459 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: be normal, you know, like everybody else quarantine and he 460 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: would have to go to work and do your thing. 461 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: But what a gift that you guys were able to do. 462 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 1: And like you said, this overlying at the beginning of 463 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 1: all this. So that being said, going into the holidays 464 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: and you guys being by coastal, like, what's the plan 465 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: coming up this month? Right on time with the question, 466 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: I say, the decision this morning. So I've really been 467 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: Friday and I knew we were going to spend it 468 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: together no matter what. We didn't spend Thanksgiving together, which 469 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 1: and I wasn't with my family and my sister was here, 470 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: so that was really tough. So we're like Christmas, we're 471 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 1: definitely gonna be together. I've really been struggling with do 472 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: I travel to Dallas, which is where I'm from, and 473 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: you know, we we trade off on where we're spending Christmas. 474 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: I was like, should I go? Am I being selfish, 475 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: am I putting them in jeopardy? And my sister has 476 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:43,199 Speaker 1: been very open about like, come here, you know, we 477 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: can take all the precautions that we need. And I 478 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: just woke up this morning and I said, you know what, 479 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: I need this. I haven't seen my family since last Christmas. 480 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: I can't afford to do things in a way where 481 00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 1: I can take precautions and not put them at in 482 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: jeopardy as much. And so I just like my sister's 483 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: comfortable with it.

And that's what I kind 493 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 1: of woke up with. Two. I was like, you know what, 494 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 1: I don't have a tree, no decorations, nothing, I know, 495 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 1: I know, I'm not a scrooge here. I'm not. I'm 496 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: not in the Christmas spirit other than the music. So 497 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, I'm going to take 498 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: control of this. I'm gonna give myself a Christmas and 499 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: so I'm really excited I'm going to that. I'm so 500 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:57,719 Speaker 1: glad you're doing that for yourself because you're gonna be 501 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: so much happier. And as Brian gonna fine meet you there. Yes, 502 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,959 Speaker 1: he'll meet me there. So we're spending it there and 503 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: we're like super excited. How long will you guys do 504 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: the long distance for? Just on the spring? Just to 505 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 1: the spring? Okay, what which I haven't said because everyone 506 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: thinks we're getting a divorce, so but of course that's 507 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: the next thing. What's been the most challenging though, for 508 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: y'all's relationship having that long distance? I would say, just 509 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,360 Speaker 1: we're east east coast, west coast, so the time difference 510 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: is tough. Um, just we were so together in quarantine 511 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: that I mean, it's just if we didn't have quarantine 512 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: and we were doing this, I would have been fine. 513 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: But just I missed him so much, Just the little 514 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: things like waking up next to each other, being able 515 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: to like cook dinner, don't even like to cook. But 516 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: I didn't quarantine cooking for him, you know, having a 517 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: meal for him when he came home playing board games 518 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: like just that time. That intimacy is what I missed 519 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: so much. And you know sometimes I fall asleep or 520 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: I'm awake if he's not, just with the time difference. 521 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: So it's it's but have you all played Monopoly together? 522 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: That's the question? Wait in quarantine? Yes, I bought happily. 523 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:16,239 Speaker 1: Did you happily play monopoly? Because we just because he 524 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: wants to make really bad deals and I'm like, no, 525 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm not trade. That's ridiculous. Why would I give you 526 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 1: about mutual benefits? And you are not you're a dictator. No, 527 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: I'm not a dictator. I'm just like, I'm smarter at monopoly, 528 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: which is why I've won three times. Okay, do you 529 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: buy everything? You land on me most of the time. 530 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: But here's the deal. I will trade if it's a 531 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: good opportunity. Having said that, you trade if it benefits 532 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: you and only you. That's not true at all. But um, 533 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: I'm just saying I'm smart about what I landed. Like 534 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: he passed up the purple every time he landed on it. Well, 535 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,719 Speaker 1: guess what, I bought all the purple then put houses 536 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: and in the hotel on there. By the time, he 537 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: was still trying to Really, we can't play Monopoly, and 538 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: this annoys us about each other. So when you guys 539 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 1: were spending this much time in quarantine together, were there 540 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: any little things that kind of started You're like, Okay, 541 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: I don't like this about you. It annoys me, you know, 542 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: cute things or whatever. Yeah, well Monopoly, it's funny. I 543 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: don't buy everything, and Brian buys everything to the point 544 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: where he's like, has no money, is mortgaging things off, 545 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: and I'm just like, bad practice. This isn't how you 546 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: play the game. You're holding onto these It just frustrates 547 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: me beyond. And then somehow, though he wins exactly, it 548 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: doesn't make logical sense. Their house poor for the first 549 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: half of the game, and then all of a sudden 550 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: they're just taking everything we have. Well, you know what, 551 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: that's how everyone's house poor until they're not, you know, 552 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: until they work their butts in real life. I try 553 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: to navigate the game how I would in real life. 554 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: This will not work. Next time, when you see him 555 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: over Christmas, I want you to buy every single property 556 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: that you land on it and tell me how that 557 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: works for you. We'll probably be playing taboo. That's like 558 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: a game we love to play in a group, So 559 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: I know we'll be playing taboo, which we get really 560 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: competitive over at the same time, especially if we're on 561 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: the same team and he can't figure out what it 562 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: is I'm describing. We can't be on the same team. 563 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: We've decided we're just not. We can't. We gotta be. 564 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: We have to go against each other for that exact reason. Um, Rachel, 565 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: You're amazing.

Like when you don't have 606 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: any plans. We haven't had plans this whole time. You 607 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: need to get on it, uma. But it's like it's 608 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: it's it's challenging the first few months just because you're 609 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: just you don't have a second because if you're not 610 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: dealing with the one, you're dealing with the other, and 611 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: then you don't want to burden like I felt like 612 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: I didn't want to put both of them on him, 613 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: So then it was just like then I wasn't taking 614 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: care of myself and vice versa. Same with him. You 615 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 1: still have that struggle, which and I will always tell 616 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: him like I don't care, you know, and Jenna be like, 617 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: can I hang out with the girls and play cards 618 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: tonight and you have the kids. I'm like, totally cool. 619 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: But I appreciate it because it is two years a lot, 620 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: especially at the ages that g will be and your 621 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: baby girl will be. It's it's a lot. But I mean, now, 622 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 1: it's just what a great time to have a freaking 623 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: baby though. I mean, well, yes and no, because you 624 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: can't really have visitors at the hospital, but I mean 625 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: you are able to just like be so present and 626 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: not have to work as much. Right, No, totally. I 627 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: think the timing is really nice um for that reason. 628 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,279 Speaker 1: But yeah, it is weird because there hasn't been I 629 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:14,280 Speaker 1: think that's one of the reasons why it's flown by, 630 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: because there's been no stopping along the way to acknowledge 631 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: the pregnancy. You know. I'm not like seeing enough people 632 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: be like, oh, well, my gosh, I don't get to 633 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: dress my bumped and go out on the towel, like 634 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: there's none of it. That's so true. But now, so 635 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: you have the sprouted diapers, um and they're the only 636 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: vegan diapers correct. Yeah, they're the first certified in the US. UM. 637 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: So I I created sprouted. When I was pregnant with Geo, 638 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: I was trying to find diapers that were just really transparent. 639 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: I wanted to know that I was going to like 640 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: find a clean, vegan, cruelty free diaper made with eco 641 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: friendly materials that was going to work. And that was 642 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 1: my one thing is that everyone who I talked to 643 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: was like, oh, yeah, there they exist, but they're they're 644 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: not like comfy, you know, they feel gross, they don't 645 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 1: you know, they don't really work that well. And I 646 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: just was annoyed by that. And to be frank, like, 647 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: I didn't feel like I was ready to do the 648 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 1: cloth diapering thing. So I just was like, if I 649 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: need convenience, I need to know that I can rely 650 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: on something that's gonna work but it's not going to 651 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: be like harmful to him and harmful to the environment. 652 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 1: And so I started working on it and it took 653 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: a while, but here we are. So this might make 654 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,439 Speaker 1: me sound like a bad mom, but I guess what 655 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: is the I haven't done the research of why a 656 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:42,800 Speaker 1: vegan diaper is better than a paper like we use pampers. Um. 657 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 1: I tried to use the Honest diapers, but they just 658 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: smelt like I smelled the pea and I'm just like, 659 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 1: oh man, And so then we went back to Pampers. 660 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: But I'm like, I guess, like tell me, like what, 661 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: like why are they? Why is it bad? What's the benefits? 662 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 1: What's the benefit of having a vegan in versus like 663 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 1: a Pampers or a Huggies or anything. Sure, functionality wise, 664 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 1: probably not a huge difference. The reason why I wanted 665 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:12,399 Speaker 1: to make a vegan diaper was purely based on my 666 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 1: own ethical stance. So every company I've invested or co 667 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: founded is vegan UM and that's like our mission, right, 668 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: So just trying to make certain everyday products that are 669 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: accessible to the masses not have to harm animals along 670 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: the way, Like you don't have to, why should we? 671 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: So the reason why our diapers are vegan is because 672 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,839 Speaker 1: we don't use um animal drived glues. We don't use 673 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: manufacturing um like UM what factory stuff that that uses 674 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: lubricants that are coming from animals. Um. Tiny little things 675 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 1: you would never think about. And something that I learned 676 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 1: along the way. And it was not the easiest process, 677 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: but um, but we did. It's being as passionate as 678 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: you're around that you know, I watched that Netflix documentary 679 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: Game Changers a while earlier in this pandemic, right, and 680 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: I drink the cool aid like everybody, I was like, 681 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: I gotta be vegan now, and so I talked about 682 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: it with Danna for a little bit. But where I struggled, 683 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: and I even got a cookbook that's vegan, But where 684 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: I struggled was like, where where do you start? Right, so, 685 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 1: for for someone who wants to maybe not go fully vegan, 686 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 1: but but dip my toe and see what it's like 687 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: and kind of the benefit, Um, like, where would you 688 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: start or suggest for someone like me or anybody else 689 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 1: to kind of get started on that train. I used 690 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: to do this really cool program in school called meatless Mondays, 691 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: and some school systems called it lean and Green program, 692 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: but really what it meant was the schools would go 693 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: completely meatless on Mondays alone. And so I took that 694 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 1: approach and like, if the kid can do it, you know, 695 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: and they're the piggiest of us, all right, Um, then 696 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 1: I kind of like I I instill that, like I 697 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,799 Speaker 1: guess coin er when I'm talking to people that asked 698 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 1: the same questions, just why not just art with one 699 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 1: day a week? Because that impact on the environment obviously, 700 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: the lives of animals is huge. Just one way, one 701 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: day a week, and see how you feel, like, don't 702 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: put pressure on yourself if you slip up, no big deal, Like, 703 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 1: I just think that people try, Like you said, right, 704 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 1: you saw game changes like you just want to go 705 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: cold turkey or all in you drink a cool aid. 706 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: But is that like sustainable long term for some people? Yeah, totally, 707 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: that's the only way to do it for for some. 708 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: But I think also like it's a lifestyle choice, so 709 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: it's a long haul and I think, you know, be 710 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: gentle on yourself. Give it a few meals, see what 711 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: you like, what you don't like. It takes some somewhere, 712 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 1: like learning, I guess along the way with having you know, 713 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 1: geo and then a new baby on the way. I've 714 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: always been curious of someone who is vegan how you 715 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: raise your children, you know, do you just give them 716 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,239 Speaker 1: the same happens that you have right now and then 717 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 1: maybe later on they can decide if they want to 718 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,479 Speaker 1: try something like how are you guys planning on doing that? Yeah, 719 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 1: that's my approach exactly. I think. Um, you know, in 720 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: our home, we eat the way we eat and it's 721 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 1: easy because we're here and even when we're out, like 722 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot of resources around here. And I've been 723 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: doing this for over twenty years, so I've like kind 724 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 1: of figured it out and how to make it work 725 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 1: wherever I am. UM, in terms of the future, like, 726 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: I don't put pressure on any of it. I'm like, 727 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: he's a human being. He's going to make decisions, he's 728 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 1: going to figure things out along the way. UM, I 729 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 1: want him. The one thing I will say is I 730 00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 1: just want him to have some awareness around where his 731 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: food comes from, because I think that that's something that 732 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,360 Speaker 1: I wasn't taught. And that's why I became vegan, because 733 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: I felt like someone just took the blindfold off and 734 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 1: I felt duped and I was like wait what. I 735 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: was five years old, So I was like traumatized. UM 736 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 1: to learn like the truth. And I think just having 737 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,280 Speaker 1: that gentle conversation like you know, this is a cow 738 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: and like you know, at some point down the line, 739 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 1: and hope that that resonates with him and if it doesn't, 740 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: my job is to love him wholeheartedly and that's all 741 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 1: that matters, you know. I think that's been part of 742 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 1: my hesitating and too, because I mean, as you know, 743 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: as a mother, you know, what you do with your 744 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: kids like impacts everything you do daily. So you know, 745 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: I'm the primary cook in the family and so you know, 746 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: I cook for Jinna and the kids and everything. And 747 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 1: I feel like if I went vegan or wanted to 748 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,800 Speaker 1: do more, you know, the kids are used to what 749 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: they're used to now they're five and two, and it's 750 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: like they kind of have their habits and things they 751 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: like and don't like, and so I would I feel 752 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 1: like I would have to change, Like I'll be cooking 753 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: two meals almost, you know. So it's like I'm just 754 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: find excuses, really is what I'm doing. So there's vegan cheese, 755 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: but no, so dairy is anything that basically comes from 756 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 1: an animal the creation of an animal um is not 757 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: necessarily vegan. But there's so many good cheeses on the market. Now, 758 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,359 Speaker 1: this is where I just go down a rabbit hole, 759 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: I mean, because it's like, well, what if we have 760 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,439 Speaker 1: the chickens and they lay the eggs. Can't aren't those 761 00:41:56,440 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 1: eggs then fine because they're not being shot with stuff. 762 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 1: So there's like a few different thoughts. No, for sure, 763 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: there's like a few different thought processes when it comes 764 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 1: to eggs specifically, I think, like the biggest thing that 765 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: um I am aware of and I think the world 766 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 1: should be is our factory farming. And like the animal 767 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: agriculture industry, it's so corrupt, it's so not what we think. 768 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you see cage tree or whatever, 769 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: like it's just the biggest misconception we're being sold to 770 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: left and right. And so for me particularly like listen, 771 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 1: if you have a chicken and you consume their eggs, 772 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 1: like that's a different story. Um, if the chicken lives 773 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 1: a beautiful life and you know, it's it's a different dynamic. 774 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: These chickens are piled up on top of each other 775 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 1: in these tiny, tiny little coops with no son, no nothing, 776 00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 1: because if they get any exposure to the outside world, 777 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: they could potentially burn calories. And the whole thing is 778 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 1: about like keeping them plump and tight. It's a business, 779 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: and I'm really being someone who's in the business space. 780 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,760 Speaker 1: I own a lot of businesses. I am so anti 781 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 1: um money driven like mentalities where it's just about the 782 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: bottle bottom line, and unfortunately, like in the animal agriculture 783 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: business alone, like that to me is like the worst 784 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 1: of them all. They just feel like they don't consider 785 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: our health and they don't consider obviously the animals, but 786 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 1: that's secondary. They just don't consider our health or the environment, 787 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 1: none of it. So I've just been like, man, this 788 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 1: is where I just start to feel like overwhelmed, because 789 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 1: like I would love to try it, and I did 790 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 1: like a pin or test, and I'm not technically supposed 791 00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 1: to have dairy, so but when I have tried, I 792 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: need can you d m me the vegan cheeses that 793 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: you eat? Yeah, because I'm a big cheese like cheese 794 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 1: and wine girl. So it's like you know, you're you're 795 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 1: you're taking out one of my main food groups. Yeah. 796 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 1: And then then I'm like the high and iron, Like 797 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: I I get really I've really bad you know monthly things, 798 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 1: and my doctor's like, you need to eat a lot 799 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 1: of iron, and I feel like the only way that 800 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: I have energy is what I have a steak, you know. 801 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 1: But interesting, so well there's tons of ways of getting iron. 802 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 1: In fact, you know, the analogy I like to use 803 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,280 Speaker 1: as our animals are basically just a carrier of where 804 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: the actual iron is coming from. Right, So it's like 805 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: they all eat the grass, they eat the hey, they 806 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: eat the things that. Like, if we could just cut 807 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 1: out the middleman and we were just more mindful of 808 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 1: like getting enough plants in our diet, Um, iron really 809 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: wouldn't be an issue. Um. And if it were, then 810 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: I think you probably would be a candidate for a 811 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 1: supplement anyways, right, like because it would probably be harder 812 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: for sure. So then speaking of Christmas, what do you 813 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: eat at Christmas? Then?
