All right, Now go ahead and leave 11 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: your question at the sound of the beeB, Hi. 12 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 2: Cheeky's, I'm just wondering what happened to the lady that 13 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 2: used to clean your house when you guys had the 14 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 2: big mansion and then see. 15 00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 3: No, oh, Jesse, that's a different question. Okay. So Melele, 16 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 3: we used to call her Melele. Her name is Mercedes. 17 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 3: You know what. 18 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 1: We talked to her, Johnny and I talked to her 19 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: from time to time. We just, honestly, thank goodness. She 20 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 1: made our life so much easier. When we lived in Sino, 21 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: it was a huge house, so she helped us out 22 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: a lot, and when we moved and I moved into 23 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: a smaller place. To be honest, I really couldn't afford 24 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: it anymore, like by myself. So I had to just 25 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: let her go. But we're still cool. But that's what happened. 26 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I've thought about bringing her back here and there. 27 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: To be honest, I'm not gonna lie because Rabbi, Yeah, 28 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: but she made my life so much easier. But but yeah, 29 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: that's that's what happened with her. Now, now you got 30 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: me thinking I've been looking for someone, so maybe I 31 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: should call her. Thank you, Jesse. You just like little 32 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: light bulb in my mind. Okay, guys, so our next 33 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: question comes from Lisa. 34 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 4: My question for you is what was the toughest thing 35 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 4: that you have gone through in life and what was 36 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 4: the lesson that you learned from it. 37 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: I know you've been through a lot in life, and 38 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like we always learn from 39 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 2: each other's stories what we get through and how we 40 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 2: get through them. So I know right now a lot 41 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 2: of people are living some very tough moments. I'm sure 42 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: they would love to hear from you. 43 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 3: Lisa. Oh wow, I love this question. 44 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: Yes, I have been through quite a bit. I wouldn't 45 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: even know. I think if I can think back and 46 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: think of what really threw me to my knees and 47 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: to the floor, I would have to say it was 48 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: my divorce. And I know it sounds crazy because obviously 49 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: I went through sexual abuse with my dad and that 50 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: was tough, and I lost my mom and that was 51 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: very tough. But when I lost my mom, I had 52 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: the kids and my siblings. They were so young and 53 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: they needed me, so that kept me going. So it's 54 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: like I wanted to mourn, but I had to be strong. 55 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: That was very painful. It was very very painful. But 56 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: I would have to see say that my divorce was 57 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: because not necessarily of who I was losing. I felt 58 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: just disappointed. I felt vamboozled in a way. It was 59 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: just tough. So it's really hard because I feel like 60 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: God that goes at DNA like the lesson, you know, 61 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: it has a lesson that I learned from everything. But 62 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: I think, damn, you really got me here because I'm like, damn, no, 63 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to take anything away from every situation, 64 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Because obviously losing my mom 65 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: is very hard, and what happened with my dad. But 66 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: I think what I learned from the separation and my 67 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: divorce was not forcing things like listening to my gut, 68 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: listening to that sixth sense that we, especially women have, 69 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: and I ignored it. I ignored it for the wrong reasons. 70 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: And I tried to fit my foot in a shoe 71 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: that didn't fit, if that makes sense. And now that 72 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: I have healed, and now that I have forgiven him completely, 73 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: it's not really him, you know what I mean, Like 74 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: he showed himself in the beginning. I just tried my best. 75 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: I can change them, I can try to change them, 76 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: and it just doesn't work. They have to also be willing. 77 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: So I'm not mad at him anymore, like I accept 78 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: and it just wasn't a fit for me, you know. 79 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: And I put myself in that situation to be honest, 80 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: and I knew maybe I shouldn't get married, but I 81 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: did it. I wasn't listening to all of the red 82 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: flags that were being shown, and I wasn't listening to 83 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 1: the signs that God was giving me. So that's what 84 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 1: I learned to really just not ignore reflags, listen to 85 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: my intuition, and take action and not be afraid you know. So, yeah, 86 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: you really made me think they're thank you for that, 87 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: sending you a big kiss, Lisa, and now we're moving 88 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: on to a question from. 89 00:04:45,279 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 5: Isabelle pletkis fan tuya perumentosas rostro pel maravillosa to scremas 90 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 5: a particles minos or low algo masnos secreto just as 91 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 5: so just be honest.

But what 138 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: I can tell you is you can't make anyone happy, 139 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: not your husband, not your children, unless you're happy. And 140 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: if you're not happy, then what do you doing? 141 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? 142 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: As hard as it's going to be and as much 143 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: as it's going to hurt people, we can't stay with 144 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 1: people because we feel sorry for them or because we 145 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: feel bad, you know what I mean. And I'm talking 146 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: about your husband, you know what I mean. Like, that's 147 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: not a good reason to stay with someone, or it's 148 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: not a good reason to stay with someone because of 149 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: your kids. And I'm telling you this because my grandmother 150 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: did that. She stayed with my grandpa, even though you 151 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: know he would cheat and you know he was he 152 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: did what he did and she would She did it 153 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: for the kids, you know. And by the time she 154 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: was like, Okay, the kids are old enough and she 155 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: left him, she say, wow, where did my life go? 156 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? So I don't know. I mean, 157 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 3: it's tough. 158 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: You got to think about that and sometimes just having 159 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: an honest conversation and just say, hey, I love you 160 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 1: and I think we'd be better as friends and co parenting. 161 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: And that doesn't mean that your daughter can't have her 162 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: dad in her life. 163 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 3: You know what I mean. 164 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: And also, if your kids are old enough, hey, this 165 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: is what's happening. Like, have an open conversation. Once you 166 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: have it with your husband first, then you guys have 167 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 1: it with the kids. Just say, hey, we're going to 168 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: do this, but we're still friends, we still love you. 169 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: This doesn't change anything or the love we have for you. 170 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: But this is going to make all of us happier. 171 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: I think having that solid conversation or therapy. Have you 172 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: guys tried therapy again? I'm not sure why you fell 173 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: out of love. I don't know if he's been a 174 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: good husband. I don't know if he like things have happened, 175 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: but you have to take all of that into account 176 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 1: and obviously maybe try therapy. Maybe once you guys have 177 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: the conversation, he's like, wait, what are you missing? Am 178 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 1: I not giving you enough? 179 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 4: Love? 180 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 3: Like if you are open with him, then maybe you. 181 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: Guys can give the relationship a chance and make changes, 182 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: maybe go on date night, you know, all those little things, 183 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: like you have to figure out where the issue is. 184 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: And maybe he's not giving you something that you're desiring, 185 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: but that can be fixable if he's a good man. 186 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: So there are different things here, you know, So you 187 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: got to really just look at everything at every angle. 188 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: But I do suggest having an open and honest conversation, 189 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: as hard as that is. You have to you have 190 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: to be honest because then you're doing a disservice for him. 191 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 1: It's not fair to him if you stay with him 192 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: just because you feel bad or for the kids, like, 193 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: that's not fair. So that is my solid and honest advice. 194 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: So I hope it helps Natalie, because you do sound 195 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: like you're in a pickle, you know, and I get it. 196 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 1: I hope I helped guys, And thank you guys.
