That 30 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: is not what we're trying to do. These are real 31 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: things that happen, and my mom did her best and 32 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: my dad, in a way, I guess, did his best. 33 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: I can't speak for them because they're not here to 34 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: defend themselves. So this is just what we have lived 35 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: and what we've experienced, without making our parents look bad, 36 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: because that's not the point here. It's it's something that 37 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: really does happen. 38 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think people like see it like damn, 39 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 2: like like they take it the wrong way, right, and 40 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: it's like it seems like we're excusing it, but it's like, no, 41 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 2: we're not. 42 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: It's not that. 43 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: It's just like I think we've come to a point 44 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: of healing, yeah, and understanding that we're able to talk 45 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: about it because it's you know, people can it happened. 46 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 2: I feel like it's normal. It happens to everybody. 47 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: Mom issues. 48 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: Everyone has daddy issues, and you know has their own experience. 49 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I mean talking about that, okay. So daddy issues, okay, 50 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: stem from complicated and unhealthy relationships between a father and 51 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: a daughter. Whether he was an absent father or abusive, 52 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 1: or there was a healthy bond, all of these can 53 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: cause issues in romantic relationships later in life. So that's 54 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: what we're going to talk about. Because we hear it 55 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: and people throw it around and blah blah blah. But 56 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: this is this is real, This is real, and I 57 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: can tell you I'll start off.

Abandonment issues and definitely 61 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 1: came from my dad.

But here's the thing. It's interesting because Jackie, 201 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: our experience with our dad is weird, and I don't 202 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: know if you guys can like. 203 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 3: Ours is very different, always different. I fell into people 204 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 3: pleasing because I didn't want to lose more people. 205 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: I was pleaser too, though I agree with that too. 206 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 2: I felt like because I lost both of my parents, 207 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 2: I had to like I had. That was my fear 208 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: of abandonment, and because Mom wasn't always present. Yeah, Mom 209 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:36,959 Speaker 2: was always gone. 210 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 3: She's a busy guy. 211 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 2: I relied on Mom to be both my mom and dad, 212 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: and she couldn't be. So it's kind of like damn, 213 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 2: like I don't like, I don't know, it's weird. 214 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: Do you remember your relationship with your dad? 215 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 2: I remember bits and pieces. I know that I was loved. 216 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 2: Do I remember filling love? I don't remember. I only 217 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 2: know that I'm loved because everyone tells me, you know 218 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: what I mean. 219 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's harder. 220 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: But that's also because my memories my dad passed away 221 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 2: when I was eleven, when I was Johnny's age, when 222 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: Mom passed away. So it's a lot of like it, 223 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 2: you know. 224 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you don't have like specific no, but I. 225 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: Know I don't remember any like him hurting me or anything. 226 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: But I do remember her so much. 227 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: I do remember a lot of him and Mom's relationship, 228 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: you know, like they were friends, but it wasn't. I 229 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 2: never saw like a loving relationship. Ever, I've never seen 230 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: a healthy marriage in my life. I don't think any 231 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 2: of us have. No, No, I've never. 232 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: Like so I was so scared to get married for 233 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: so long. Yeah, it is, I mean, okay, because he 234 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: and the second part of that question is because obviously 235 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: the dad of that I'm talking about is Juan Lopez, 236 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: which to me, that's your father without taking anything away 237 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: from her biological father. But when that happened, when that 238 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: came about you and you found out, I know you 239 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: went through a lot. Did you feel what did how 240 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: did that affect you in the way you see relationships 241 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: or even mom or your or Juan Lopez your dad process. Yeah, 242 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. 243 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: I think I things come up to this day, like 244 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 2: as in relationships, Like I'm just like I don't know, 245 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 2: Like I'm so good by myself and I think that's 246 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 2: a problem. Like I know how to be by myself 247 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: that I can be home for like a week and 248 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 2: not want to go out or whatever, and I'm fine 249 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 2: with that, but I think that's a thing, like I'm 250 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 2: scared to go out and like be rejected or like 251 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: also those people go away as well, like you rather 252 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 2: not even like I'm comfortable with, yes, exactly, I'm comfortable 253 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 2: with where I'm at and like my friend and like 254 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 2: I'm okay in my space, like I don't need it, 255 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 2: But then I want attention. I want to be in 256 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: a relationship, but I don't like And I think that's because, like, 257 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 2: I'm so used to not having those figures in my. 258 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: Life, right, so it's to me yeaeah. 259 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 2: So like and I'm so used to being my own 260 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 2: like I like, I'm used to being my own boss. 261 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 2: Like I don't like I don't have to like you know, 262 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 2: I don't have to tell exactly, but you're willing. I'm willing. 263 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: I'm absolutely willing because that's yeah, because being too independent, 264 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: i've learned is not is not good in a relationship either. 265 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: And that's what we saw with Mom. And I've realized 266 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: respectfully that I have. I looked and I was thinking, 267 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: cause I know we were going to talk about this. 268 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: I feel like I do have more mommy issues and 269 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: daddy issues. Why. I think because we spent more time 270 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: with mom. Mom had to be our mom and our dad. 271 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: So that's why I'm like so compassionate about her. Now 272 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: that I step back and I'm like it wasn't easy 273 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: being in her position. She needed to be tough. She 274 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: needed this because if she wasn't even femininis exactly, she 275 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: couldn't because the guys that she chose. 276 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: And I think that it comes off like we're just 277 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 2: like very like oh, the independence, Like we're just like, yeah, 278 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: we don't take anything.

Because there's 328 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: things that I needed to change from things that I 329 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: saw in my childhood because I never saw a healthy 330 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: relationship either, and we had said we want to break 331 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: the shit. 332 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 3: But I didn't want to add if all you guys remember, 333 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 3: I wanted to add that. I think it also where 334 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 3: you're at now. It's work that you've done, but are 335 00:16:53,120 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 3: also a lot of what he's done. He's he's not 336 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 3: intimidated by the strong woman that you are. No, it 337 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 3: still allows you to be who you are. You're strong 338 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 3: because you saw mom be that way because of how 339 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 3: life molded you. But then because he's not intimidated and 340 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 3: he embraces that, it allows you to just sit back 341 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,239 Speaker 3: and like okay, and I want to yes, because you're 342 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 3: not having to guard that person. You're like, Okay, let's 343 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 3: venture into what it could be like to be feminine 344 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 3: and leving in some you know, yes, that. 345 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: He's not like, he's not right. He doesn't feel inadequate, 346 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 1: he doesn't feel inferior, he doesn't feel those things. And 347 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 1: it's like he knows who he is and that helps. 348 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 3: So because because you know we we we had a 349 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,679 Speaker 3: crazy traumatic like upbringing and we're all together and we 350 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 3: have siblings or whatever. And what's the difference you see 351 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 3: in Emilio because he's an only child and like, is 352 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 3: he as broken as we are? No? 353 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: I think he's done a lot of the work. 354 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 2: Because he doesn't have does he have daddy? Just because 355 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 2: he doesn't have his dad and his life either. 356 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: Right seem like it? It doesn't seem like it. But 357 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: because he had a very present Nino, his mom's brother, 358 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: was stepped in and was like a dad. And not 359 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: only that, there's two brothers. Yeah, two brothers and they 360 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: stepped in a lot of the family. They're very close, 361 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: so they all helped him, and he never felt like 362 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 1: he was missing a dad, I think because he always had. Yeah, 363 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: they're honestly, his mom dide a wonderful job with him. 364 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 1: Mind joymedia will sit here and tell you. He's like, oh, 365 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: I was an narcissist and I was this, and I 366 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: was jealous and really oh yeah, yes, no way, yeah, 367 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: it's insane. He's like, I know people can change, but 368 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: you have to recognize it first. He's like, I was 369 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: a narcissist, I was I cheated, I was a liar, 370 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,199 Speaker 1: I was this. I was that.

And it's 391 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: like sometimes I'm like, okay, babe, we're both very needy 392 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: of attention and touch and this and that, and it works. 393 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: But it took so long to get to them.

I needed 404 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 1: to heal a lot of things, and I would overcompensate 405 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: a lot of relationships because in a way, I don't 406 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: want you to leave, you know, I want like such 407 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: a crappy yeah yeah.

I'm I'm a sick validation and 410 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 3: that blinds you when you're when you don't, it blinds 411 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 3: you from seeing the red flags, like. 412 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 2: You excuse behavior. 413 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. Same, That's what I used to do. 414 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I'm just want somebody I want, you. 415 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: Know, yeah, yeah yeah. 416 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: And if the person, if the person detaches, then I 417 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 3: feel like I'm gonna overcompensate, like let me, let me 418 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 3: show you, let me prove to you. 419 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 1: Okay. 420 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 2: So now my question is is how are you showing 421 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 2: that to Jayla? 422 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 3: You know what, because you have already No, I feel 423 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 3: an urgency. I feel an urgency to heal something about 424 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 3: because I'm married or I felt like, oh I'm healed. No, 425 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 3: not at all. And I can see the same patterns 426 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 3: in Jaila, and I thought it was insane because she 427 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 3: has two dads and I was like, oh, she's she's good, 428 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 3: She's not gonna have this shoes I have. But that's 429 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 3: not the case. Yeah, so I have to be an example, 430 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 3: and I need there's like a sense of urgency, like 431 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 3: you need to get it together because I can see 432 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 3: certain things. Yeah, that sucks, but we're gonna get there. 433 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 3: We're gon we're gonna get better, We're gonna heal. 434 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I'm What I try to figure out is 435 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: it's okay because we had dad, right, we had Dad. 436 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 1: Didn't sound weird, but he was a really good dad. 437 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: He was attentive. He wanted to see us every weekend, 438 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: like he wanted to be in our lives. Yeah, and 439 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: he had no issue with cooking for us. And I 440 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: learned a lot of my organization skills come from Dadow. 441 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: Mind you he did what he did, you know he had. 442 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: I feel like it's a it's a sickness. Yeah, soon, 443 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know so, But then he left. 444 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: So I've been trying to think about, like, Okay, I 445 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: had this. I have a dad that loves me. 446 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 3: I feel like you compartmentalized like the dad that loves you. 447 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 3: Because there's things, certain things that I remember. I don't 448 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 3: remember a lot, but there's certain things I do remember. 449 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 3: And it was fun, it was pretty. It was like music. 450 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: I just remember thought about music. 451 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but then then there's the other side. So 452 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 3: but that's probably are analyzing. 453 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 2: Are you excusing it? I don't think so, no excusing 454 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 2: what like I'm saying, like, does this fallen excusing behavior 455 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 2: because he because he was a good dad, but he 456 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 2: also did what he did. 457 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, so a lot of people would say we are 458 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 3: And sometimes I think like, is this a trauma response? 459 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 3: Because I want to forgive and I don't want to 460 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 3: hold a grudge. But again, You've never been that way. 461 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: I've never been one to like hold grudges or anything like. 462 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 3: That to anyone who's hurt you, not just this person. 463 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: And to like to a fault because sometimes some people 464 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: don't deserve to come back into my life. And I 465 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: just keep it's okay, it's okay, and I kept allowing 466 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: it and still his day. 467 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 3: Is that a trauma response from what we lived? I 468 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 3: don't know. 469 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: I don't know. 470 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 3: It's so much it's like a yeah. 471 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 2: I think it's also that we I mean, maybe I'll 472 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 2: speak for myself. I know that I'm not a perfect 473 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:09,959 Speaker 2: person and I've made mistakes as well, so it's like 474 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: we overextend grace. I know that people can change. Yeah, 475 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 2: so it's like we also hope that you know, that 476 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 2: person changes. 477 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: Like we have that faith, yes, exactly, the doubt. 478 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 2: Because we've changed or we know we've done things or 479 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 2: you know. Yeah, so I don't know at least that's 480 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: just me. 481 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we're figuring this out as as we're here.

Is that like something learned? And a lot 504 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 3: of the times it's like we think we're good people 505 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 3: because we don't, you know, do certain things, or we 506 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 3: don't steal, or we don't do these things. But like 507 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 3: once you see your kid, I'm like, shoot, like damn, 508 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 3: I gotta I gotta fix this because I still do that. 509 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's why I think I waited so long 510 00:25:58,359 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 1: to have because is. 511 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 3: It like you're waiting to get be better? 512 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: So that honestly, it wasn't even that. Now that I'm older, 513 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: now I'm like, Okay, now I feel like I've done 514 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 1: the work. I think that I can hopefully raise a 515 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: super child. You know, in my mind, obviously things are 516 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 1: going to happen. But I'm like, Okay, I feel ready. 517 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: But for so long I was afraid. I was I 518 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 1: don't want to have the same problems I had with 519 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: for instance, Mom, I'm telling you like I had a 520 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 1: lot more because I was so close to Mom and 521 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: live so much longer with her that I guess there 522 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: are more issues there because thatad just did what you know, 523 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: and he left, you know. So I think for that 524 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: for a long time, I was just more afraid of 525 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: even having a daughter, exactly repeat the cycle.

It turns out I'm a 651 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 3: lot like her. 652 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: And then until. 653 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 3: Later, until it was like twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, that 654 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 3: I was like, wait, Jackie, what were you? What are 655 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 3: you here for? Who were you? Because I came into 656 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 3: this world alone. I came into this world with a purpose, 657 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 3: and I did. I had never asked myself that question 658 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 3: until like twenty sixteen. And then it's like. 659 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: Shoot, like a whole new world. 660 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 3: And then you start investing in yourself and healing yourself, 661 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 3: and then that kind of pushes people away from you. 662 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 3: Mm hmm. 663 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: That's crazy because I was on the complete opposite, like 664 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: you wanted to be married and be the wife and 665 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: have be the mom and the whole thing, have a 666 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: stable home, and I was like, I don't know if 667 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: I never really cared about getting married and this and that. 668 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, if it happens, great, I'm like, 669 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: you know, and I was like, and if it doesn't work, 670 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't work next. Yeah, for so long. And that's 671 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: also not that's a whole lot. That's not healthy either, 672 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: because when I remember, Yeah, when I would ask you, 673 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, sister, can you do that? 674 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 3: Oh? 675 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: You were being a good wife. 676 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 3: Well, I think it also depends on because I'm trying 677 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 3: to I'm like, we had the same parents, and it 678 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 3: seems like we probably had the same traumas, but it 679 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 3: wasn't because you in mom's life were someone else. You 680 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 3: were a different position in her life than I was. 681 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 682 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, which is crazy as to like it's parallel, but 683 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 3: it's not. 684 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 2: Right. 685 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 3: That's insane. 686 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: I think it's just knowing what we really want and 687 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 1: being able to communicate that with our partners. And say 688 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: this is what I want, this is what I'm willing 689 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 1: to give, this is what I expect. What do you expect? 690 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: It's yeah, let's figure this out so that it fits. 691 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 3: And neither you said that like knowing what you really want. 692 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 3: Someone asked me that the other day, like what do 693 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 3: you want? And I'm like, or what do you think 694 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 3: you deserve? And I'm like, I don't know, Like that's 695 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 3: crazy to not know, like I have it. I'm thirty 696 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 3: five years old and to like not, No, it's freaking crazy. 697 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 698 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: Sorry, it's okay. 699 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,240 Speaker 3: And there's like a sense of urgency because it's crazy. 700 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 3: You think you're healed and you're not. There's still so 701 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 3: much like to dig deep and heal, and I feel 702 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 3: like a lot of it was like a band aid, 703 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 3: Like you think having a family and being married, it's 704 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 3: like that's healed because it's not what it's what I 705 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 3: didn't have, but you didn't go through the process. And 706 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 3: I see it in Jayla and like I need to 707 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 3: figure out how to answer this question so that she doesn't. 708 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 3: I still have time, thank god, Yeah, so that she 709 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 3: doesn't do the same thing, because sadly, I'm not trying 710 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 3: to talk crap, but her dad is not like showing 711 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 3: her and that even showed like that, I'm like, why 712 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 3: why is she acting out? She has a father here, 713 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 3: he's present and he loves her and he picks her 714 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,959 Speaker 3: up on the weekends, but it's like he's he still 715 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 3: hasn't gone through his process. So no matter what, in 716 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 3: my head, I was like, as long as she has 717 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 3: a dad, she's gonna be good because I didn't have one. 718 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 3: But it's not the case. 719 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's wild. Sorry, no, no, no, it's true. I 720 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: I yeah, it's it's yeah. I think we're just out 721 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: here just trying to do our best. We were just 722 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: trying to do our best. 723 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 3: You know, I didn't really believe in the reparenting yourself. 724 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 3: You have to it's not but yeah. 725 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and sometimes in certain cases, like for instances like Emilio, 726 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 1: you know, he didn't. He never really felt he needed 727 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: a dad. So it's like he could have had his dad, 728 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: and what if his dad would have made done more 729 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: damage and he was not in his life and he 730 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: is who he is. I mean, he's not obviously perfect, 731 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:34,760 Speaker 1: but I feel, honestly, I think we should be proud 732 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 1: in him too. Like the type of man that he is, 733 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: given that he didn't have a father and everything we've 734 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: been through, we could be a lot worse. Guys, like 735 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: I think about it all the time, like right or so, 736 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,800 Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like things could always be worse, 737 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: and I feel. 738 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 3: But I do. I don't want to minimize what live. 739 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 1: No no, no more no. But I'm saying like we 740 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: could have gone a complete opposite way given the parts 741 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: that we were dealt. 742 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 3: I think what you mean and to add on to 743 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 3: what you're saying is that our hearts are still good. 744 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 1: M H. We can sit here and have this conversation 745 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: and as we're speaking, realizing certain things and not and 746 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: feel vulnerable. That's like I feel like there's that's the 747 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:23,399 Speaker 1: first step in healing and changing is accepting. And we're 748 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,359 Speaker 1: sitting here having this hard conversation that some people may 749 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: not understand, that some people may be like and it 750 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: sucks because we're talking about our experiences and what we've 751 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,720 Speaker 1: gone through. But it's hard because our mother is this huge, 752 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: amazing figure that people think we're talking crap. But if 753 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: our mom wasn't and we were able to speak about it, 754 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: but it's like, why can't we speak about our truth 755 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 1: and still respect us and still respect her and still 756 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: love her. I have so much more at the end 757 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: of the day. Yeah, she was a normal person and 758 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: she was doing her best, you know, And yeah, and 759 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: that's why it's Yeah, do. 760 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:04,040 Speaker 3: You think she was trying to find a man for 761 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:09,359 Speaker 3: the boys, because that's a big difference. Like, I mean, 762 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 3: Mikey's very much like a Melia in the sense of 763 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,360 Speaker 3: like I didn't need him, but he didn't have a 764 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 3: father figure, so there's a lot of things he didn't 765 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 3: learn and he's teaching himself. 766 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 2: I think had a hard time. I think maybe because 767 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 2: I she probably didn't know how to raise boys. 768 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: But she always did tell me, She's like, they don't 769 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: need their dad, they have enough mother with me. She 770 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,240 Speaker 1: would always say, like they didn't not necessarily. 771 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 3: There's a mistake in them. And she wouldn't. 772 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:46,720 Speaker 1: Sometimes let the boyfriends. Yeah, there was too much pressure 773 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: on her where she was like, these are my kids? 774 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 1: Are my goddamn kids. And she would say, she's like, 775 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 1: it's my responsibility. I don't need you to come into 776 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: my life to raise my kids. I got that, I 777 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 1: need you to come into my life to love me. 778 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 2: That comes from grandpa kicking her out. That comes from 779 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 2: the men abusing her, leaving these men like I don't 780 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 2: need men, fuck men andy shit like type like yeah, 781 00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 2: which in her ego like I did it all by myself. 782 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 3: And and there's a lot of single mothers out there 783 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,879 Speaker 3: who are doing it by themselves. But that doesn't mean that, 784 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 3: and that doesn't mean that if they are like that, 785 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 3: it's wrong. I don't I don't want to. I want 786 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 3: to correct that. But it's also like there's a man 787 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 3: to teach, Like there's certain things as a woman we 788 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 3: just don't know exactly. And I know onm did her best, 789 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 3: but I know that my brother's lacked. Yeah, and that's 790 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 3: you know, I don't know. 791 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm proud of her still me too, Me too. 792 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: I I always say this. I was like I didn't 793 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: have the perfect mother, but I had the perfect mother 794 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 1: for me, like the mother that I needed, because if 795 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 1: she hadn't been so strict with me and her lessons, 796 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 1: I don't know who I would have been today, you know. 797 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 1: And and that's why I try like to step back 798 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 1: and just look at her life and understand her. And 799 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 1: she did her best, and that's that, you know. 800 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 2: No I think that now it's like recognizing that we 801 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 2: do have these issues. I don't like calling them issues 802 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 2: because it sounds negative. I think they're just a part 803 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 2: of us that we you know, that we recognize. Yeah, 804 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 2: it's recognizing those those parts of us and fixing it 805 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 2: and knowing what we deserve exactly. 806 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, knowing what we deserve, what we want, what we 807 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: can change, recognizing it, accepting it, and yeah, I mean, 808 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: it took me a long time to get to this point, 809 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: to be like, what do I really want, you know? 810 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: And what is my heart really craving? And I think 811 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 1: it's because I had to be an adult since I 812 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: was so little. Now I want someone to take care 813 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: of me emotionally because I've had to be strong forever 814 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: forever that now at least I can communicate what works 815 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 1: for me. But it took a long time time to 816 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 1: get to that point. And I told the media from 817 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,959 Speaker 1: the very beginning, this is a type of relationship I need. 818 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: I need to feel just wanted and cared for, and 819 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: you're going to take care of me so I could 820 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:14,839 Speaker 1: just relax. Because I've had to be a mother, I've 821 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 1: had to be like so grown up. There's a Chiquita, 822 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 1: and I think once but again, I had to like 823 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,400 Speaker 1: I thought I needed to be strong. I thought I 824 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 1: was an independent woman. I thought like, yes, yes, that's 825 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 1: all cool, But I don't want to be an independent, 826 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: strong woman that's alone. And what do I have to 827 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: do to change that? You know, to be different in 828 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 1: my relationships? So okay, I'm going to start with you, sister. 829 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 1: What is something that you're doing now to not fall 830 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: back into the people pleasing, into the validation all that stuff. 831 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: Is there something in particular that you're doing. 832 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 3: I think that I'm in a season. I've been in 833 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 3: a season of losing a lot of people because there 834 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,320 Speaker 3: were a safety blanket. So I kind of feel like 835 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 3: I didn't necessarily step into like I'm going to start 836 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:17,360 Speaker 3: my hating journey. It kind of just happened because I 837 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 3: think that was my biggest fear of like I don't 838 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 3: want to lose any more people. I'm going to do 839 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 3: whatever I need to do to keep people. I'm going 840 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 3: to be forgiving. I'm going to over communicate, which I 841 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 3: feel like sometimes over communicating is a I thought communicatings. 842 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,760 Speaker 1: It does, especially as over community. 843 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 3: So I'm learning I'm asking myself what do I need 844 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,319 Speaker 3: to communicate? What am I trying to over explain to 845 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 3: keep people. I'm learning to say no, which was probably 846 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 3: one of the hardest things because it feels so bad 847 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 3: to say no and to set a boundary, which because 848 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,279 Speaker 3: of what we've gone through sexual abuse, that you don't 849 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 3: know how to have boundaries. So I've just barely started learning, 850 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 3: but learning to say no. I'm asking myself when I 851 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 3: need to explain and when I don't and not. I'm 852 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 3: learning not to make excuses for people whoa which is 853 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 3: really hard. 854 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,879 Speaker 2: Making excuses that's hard to. 855 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 3: Pay attention to. You have to be actually aware. 856 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to be. 857 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,439 Speaker 2: And I think overall, I think, if anything, I've learned 858 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 2: to be more self aware, like how am I acting? 859 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 2: M And then I start seeing how that person's acting 860 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 2: and looking at really recognizing what red flags are and 861 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 2: not excusing those ones. You know, you're like, oh, like 862 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 2: if it's a red flag, it's a red flag. 863 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 3: Don't try to make it paint. 864 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, don't squint your eyes to make it green. 865 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 1: I know, is it yellow or orange? 866 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 2: And you know what? For me, I think it's to 867 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 2: stop seeing the potential, like I'm tired. 868 00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,920 Speaker 3: Of like waste years of your life. 869 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 2: Yes, like I do not want to wait for you 870 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 2: to change or like you know, I don't know, so 871 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 2: I don't know. 872 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: Just trying that was my thing. I thought I could 873 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,959 Speaker 1: fix everyone and everything. It's like, I'll fix him, I'll 874 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: fix it. Maybe he needs me, uh huh, he needs 875 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: me to help him, Like, that's not my responsibilit It's 876 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 1: a huge freaking load to carry. And it's like, hold up, 877 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 1: I have my baggage. You have your baggage, Yes, immediate, 878 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 1: can you help me carry my bags?

You always want to make something your home. 886 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: Like yeah, I guess so it's true. 887 00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,160 Speaker 2: It's beautiful, that's fine. 888 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: I take everything.
