There's some 18 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: like w WU stuff that happened my RNC project. Fam 19 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: are gonna love that. And then also just what it 20 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: was like holidaying with Ivy, who's eight months yesterday, our 21 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: first like international holiday with her, and just like how 22 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: we navigated that and yeah, so she's going to be 23 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: like a little update and then even just a little 24 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: Ivy update too, So that's what this episode is going 25 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: to be about. So, first of all, this holiday was 26 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: planned and it was supposed to be a big family 27 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: holiday with Cooper, my brother and his wife Ash and 28 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: his two kids, Billy and Body obviously meet him and Ivy. 29 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: So we booked this incredible villa. We stayed at the 30 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 1: sixth Census in Fiji, which is like a beautiful like 31 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: I don't want to see. Yeah, i'd say, like holistic. 32 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: They're very into like your health and wellness, very bougie. 33 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: And we had that booked from the start of the 34 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: year obviously because you know, we've been in COVID the 35 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: last two years, no one's been able to travel, and 36 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: me and Cooper were like, we're craving a holiday, let's 37 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: do it together. And yeah, so we booked and we 38 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: were so excited and you know, getting ready for that. 39 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: I had prepped my team and hate team and everyone 40 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: was all good to go. And then literally a week 41 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 1: before we're supposed to leave, Ash Cooper's wife got COVID 42 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: and we were just like, oh my god, and we 43 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: were just kind of hoping, you know, maybe she would 44 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: start testing negative towards the end of the week and 45 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: Cooper and the boys just like isolated in another end 46 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: of the house. Long story short, Cooper ended up getting COVID, 47 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: Billy and Body ended up getting it, and they couldn't 48 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: join us on our family holiday, which is just bloody devastating. 49 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: I just feel obviously so sad for them because I 50 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: know how much they were looking forward to it, but 51 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: also for us because we were really excited to go 52 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: with them anyway. So that was the first thing where 53 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: we were like surely, not like what are the chances 54 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: because Cooper and Ash had never had COVID before. And 55 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: also just like another random thing I got a lot 56 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: of during this episode two. I'll be answering questions about 57 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: traveling with Ivy, and I got the question of, you know, 58 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: was I worried about Ivy getting COVID by traveling and 59 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. I try not to let the fear 60 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: of COVID consume me so and even just like small 61 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: things make me feel better. So I had the two 62 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: vaccines done when Ivy was still in my belly, so 63 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: I know that she's got some antibodies from me. And 64 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: then when I got COVID at the start of the year, 65 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: she her and Tim didn't get it, and I would 66 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 1: assume that maybe she started to get it and maybe 67 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: her system like you know, foughd it off. I don't know. 68 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: I actually don't know how it works. But I really 69 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 1: wasn't too worried. Obviously, were super safe. We're wearing masks 70 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,039 Speaker 1: and hand sanitizing everything. But I try not to let 71 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: like COVID put me into a fear base mentality. So 72 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: I wasn't too worried with Ivy, and because she had 73 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: antibodies from my vaccine, made me feel a lot better 74 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,559 Speaker 1: about us traveling internationally. But anyway, long story, sure, Cooper 75 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: and Ash can come very upsetting. We still had to 76 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: go just because Cooper and Ash could you know, get 77 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: some money back because they were they did test positive, 78 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: whereas me and Tim hadn't, So we still had to 79 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: go otherwise we were going to lose all accommodation anyway, 80 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: So we went, and I was definitely ready for a 81 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: holiday I'll kind of chat about this in a different episode, 82 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: but even if you listen to a previous episode, I 83 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: kind of explained I do feel like I'm at a 84 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: position now where I am a little bit out of alignment. 85 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: And the reason that I know I'm out of alignment 86 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: is because previous to this holiday, I was feeling quite 87 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 1: burnt out, and I find I feel burnt out when 88 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: I'm I guess explained it in a way of you know, 89 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: when you're running a business, you do have to be 90 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: ahead of time, and so you know, within Naked Harvest, 91 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: within the podcast, within my personal business with brand sponsorships 92 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: and brand partnerships, everything is very much planned out. So 93 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: for example, last year, I made a lot of decisions 94 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: that then I guess play out this year. And I 95 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: feel like last year Georgie is so different and so 96 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: far from now Georgie, but I'm dealing with a lot 97 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: of her decisions, if that makes sense. I hope this 98 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: makes sense. And so I am feeling out of alignment 99 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 1: because I'm like transitioning into this new Georgie who is 100 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: a mom and she's navigating business and Ivy and Tim 101 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,239 Speaker 1: and all the things. But I'm like dealing with old 102 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: Georgie's decisions, and that's how I know him kind of 103 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: out of alignment because before our holiday, I was feeling 104 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: really burnt out. And I absolutely love what I do. 105 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: You guys know, I'm so passionate, Like my business is 106 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: literally empowering women. How could you not be in love 107 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: with that if that was your purpose? And you know, 108 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: I was launching the project, which is my favorite thing 109 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: to launch, and it just lights me up and seeing 110 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: everyone on the same vibe. And so even though I 111 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: was doing all the things that you know should light 112 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: me up and should make me feel a certain way, 113 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: I was starting to feel burnt out. And that's how 114 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: I knew I really needed to get back into alignment. 115 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: And that's actually what I'm working on in the project 116 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: right now with everyone else in real time. It is 117 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: officially week two. Congratulations everyone if you're following long and yeah, 118 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: so that's what I'm working on. Anyway, long story short, 119 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: I definitely was feeling burnt out and I felt like 120 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: I needed a holiday, So me and Tim were going 121 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: to kind of go no matter what, if that makes sense, obsolutely, 122 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: if we had COVID, we would not have gone, but 123 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: just yeah, so we went and amazing, we you know, 124 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: got all packed. We went to the airport early Sunday morning. 125 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: We had like an eight thirty flight and then so 126 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: the first thing was like Cooper and Nash not being 127 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: able to come, and I don't know, previous to us 128 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: going again, I don't know, not that if I should 129 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: be sharing this, but I just was getting like really 130 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: weird thoughts about because Billy is a year old and 131 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: you know, only six months off Ivy, and I just 132 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: kept getting these weird thoughts of this is gonna sound 133 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: really horrible, but like little kids drowning, and I don't 134 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: know how to explain it. But I even had a 135 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: conversation with Ash where I was like, I don't know, 136 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: I'm feeling really concerned because the villa we stayed in 137 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: had an infinity pool right off like the main area, 138 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 1: and because it's in Fiji, there's no like you know, 139 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,839 Speaker 1: pool regulations where the pool is fenced off like here 140 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: in Australia, and I just like, I don't know, like 141 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: I kept having weird feelings of like I know that infants, 142 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: like when they go into water, they can often drown 143 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: very quickly, like within thirty seconds, because they just they 144 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: don't know how to like breathe underwater, and they swallow 145 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: water and they drown. And I know this is getting 146 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: like really dark, but I don't know. I had this 147 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: like just weird feeling.

And I even spoke to Ash 152 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: about it, and I had I also follow this page 153 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: called Tiny Hearts Education where it's all about like education, 154 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: and they put up a pose which is probably where 155 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: it like stemmed from of a little boy who drowned, 156 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: who was only two years old, and it was just 157 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: so devastating and I just, I don't know, I had 158 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: this weird feeling anyway. Again, I don't know where I'm 159 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: going with this, but when Cooper and Ash couldn't come, 160 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: obviously it was very upset and very upsetting, and like 161 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: who knows, but that fear of the pool and the 162 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: babies and stuff went away, and so me and Tim, 163 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: you know, I like to think things do happen for 164 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: a reason, and the universe is supporting us and whatnot, 165 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: and so like Tim even said something like, you know, 166 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: maybe if Cooper and Ash were meant to come, something 167 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: bad was going to happen, and so maybe it was 168 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, it just I had this feeling and 169 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: then you know, they couldn't come and whatnot. So I'll 170 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: just like leave that as that. But that feeling kind 171 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: of vanished with fear around Ivy and the pool once 172 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: we got there. Anyway, so we got to the airport. Now, guys, 173 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: we haven't traveled internationally obviously since COVID, and I just 174 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: felt like a bit of a deal. But the first 175 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: problem was we hadn't done our international vaccine certificates. I 176 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: didn't really know we had to do this because Cooper 177 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: booked the holiday. But basically it's just this thing where 178 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: if you have the vaccine, you just have to get 179 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: it authenticated by Many Care and you can simply do 180 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,839 Speaker 1: it online. Takes two seconds. It's not an issue. And 181 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: so the lady was like, oh, I just need your 182 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: international vaccine passports, And as soon as she said it, 183 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: my heart dropped because I have this annoying thing. I'm 184 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: so annoying because I leave things and I'm like not 185 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: proactive with things, whereas Tim is so proactive, but for 186 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: literally six months now, my financial advisor has been like, 187 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: you need to have everything in one name because things 188 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: are just getting so confusing because I sometimes have important 189 00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: documents in Stevenson, my maiden name, and then I sometimes 190 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: have important documents in Crouch, my married name. So for example, 191 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 1: my passport is in Crouch, whereas a lot of other 192 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: documents are in Stevenson, and my license is in Stevenson 193 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: and Medicare is in Stevenson. And I'm just like, I've 194 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: just been lazy, Like I've just been so lazy that 195 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: I haven't changed things over and like, for example, my 196 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: license because it hasn't expired. I was just like, when 197 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: I have to get it redone in a year or two, 198 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: I will just do it then because it's like it 199 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: costs money, Like I don't want to like have to 200 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: get a new license and you know, line up at 201 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: the place and this and that. So anyway, long story short, 202 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: my financial advisor has been advising this to me for 203 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: so long, and I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll 204 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: get to it. So there, I've had an issue with 205 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: my MYGV app not allowing me to get that official 206 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: green tick thing because my Medicare is in Stevenson and 207 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: other things are in Crouch anyway, so I had to 208 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: go to my doctor and get a certificate printed off 209 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: of my vaccines like to get into you know, public 210 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: places when we had to do that. So I literally 211 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: have like a paper certificate of my vaccines and I 212 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: don't have the app. And so soon as she said that, 213 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: she's like, it's really easy, you just do it through 214 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: the app, and I just knew straight away. I was like, 215 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: holy shit, I'm not going to be able to do 216 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: it through the app. And I just said to her 217 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: straight up, I was like, I can't do it through 218 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: the app. What does this mean? And she goes, well, 219 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: we need this for you to be able to fly, 220 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: like this is like you need this to get onto 221 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: the plane. And I just instantly broke down. I knew, 222 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: like I like started tearing up. I looked at him 223 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, we're not going to be able to 224 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: fly because my Medicare is in Stevenson and my passport 225 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: is in Crouch. So Tim's like, it's all good, let's 226 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 1: just try and do it. And guys, like I know, 227 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: Tim was like sent to me by the universe because 228 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: and I said this in my wedding vowls, he is 229 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: the calm to my crazy. I just instantly spiraled. I 230 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: started freaking out. I started tearing up, and he literally 231 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: like held me and he's like, Georgia, it's going to 232 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: be okay. If we're meant to go, we will get 233 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: onto this flight. Otherwise it was not meant to be. 234 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: And I just like, but I just thought, like, after everything, 235 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: surely not. And like we've been up since three am 236 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: because we had to get to the airport and this 237 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: and that. And that's like my advice guys if you 238 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: are traveling internationally, like just get there three hours early 239 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: because something like this could happen anyway. So I'm going 240 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: through the app. I'm trying to get this certificate and 241 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: it's just not working. It even has an option where 242 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: it's like if your name is different, and I'm putting 243 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: you know what my passport it says and what my 244 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: medicare says, and it's just it's not letting me. So anyway, 245 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: that was the first problem that's happening. Then comes to 246 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: me and goes Also the ticket is in Stevenson and 247 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: your passport says Crouch. Again, I didn't book and Cooper 248 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: organized this, but it wasn't his fault because he sent 249 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: it to me for approval. And it just like would 250 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: have been when I was working and I saw Stevenson 251 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: and I'm just like, yep, yeap, book the ticket. It's 252 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: like all good. So then she goes, you have an 253 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: hour until like check out close. You need to call 254 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: your flight like the person who booked your flight and 255 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: get her to change it now, otherwise you also won't 256 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: be able to get onto the flight tickets of this. 257 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: So I instantly call our flight, not flight attendant. I 258 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: forget what she's called our flight booker, our accommodation booker. 259 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, you guys know what I mean. I 260 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: called her. She's literally asleep because this is like six 261 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: am on Sunday, and I'm like, oh my god, my 262 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: name's wrong. Can you quickly call flight center and do this? 263 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: So then and she literally said to me straight away, 264 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: she goes, I don't think we can get this done 265 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: in time, just letting you know. I'm like, my god. 266 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: So then she's trying to do her part. I'm trying 267 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: to do my part. I end up talking to a 268 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: higher up person, and I'm just like, look, you can 269 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: see I've had my vaccines. You can see that that's 270 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: in Stevenson and my passport is crouch, Like, surely you 271 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: guys can just see this. Then he's calling Immigration and 272 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: he literally talks to like someone downstairs at the gate 273 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: with that side of things. Long story short, they end 274 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: up so I didn't get my international thing and they 275 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: end up just letting me through. Wait wait, wait, let's 276 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: track back. So while this was going down, I said 277 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: to Tim when I was freaking out, and then he's 278 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: trying to calm me down. I had to literally just 279 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: like pull myself together and I just said this little 280 00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: prayer and I was like, had to take it deep breath, 281 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: and I was like, if this is meant to be, 282 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: we will get onto this flight. It will all work 283 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: out and we will get onto this flight. And if 284 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: it's not, these blocks are clearly happening to you know, 285 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: protect us or for whatever reason, it is okay. And 286 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 1: I had to say a little prayer and I just 287 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: was like, look, it is what it is. I was 288 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 1: so fucking nervous, like basically crying. Long story short, Immigration 289 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: let me through, and the flight attendant, well she she 290 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: didn't actually get to change my name, and she goes 291 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,959 Speaker 1: the alternative is we can book you a flight, like 292 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: I would have to pay for another ticket, and we 293 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: had booked in business and there was obviously no spots 294 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: left in business because like I couldn't take my own spot, 295 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 1: if that makes sense. So I was going to have 296 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: to buy another ticket in economy and like sit away 297 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: from Tim and Ivy, who would be sitting in business. 298 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: It's not I'm not saying about the economy part of things, like, 299 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 1: so you don't mind at all, but like I'd be 300 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: away from Tim and Ivy and there would be a 301 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: spare seat beside them, which is technically my seat. But 302 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: that's what would have to happen. I don't know. It 303 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: was like this whole big thing. Long story short, the 304 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: surface desk guy end up calling someone and then calling 305 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 1: someone else and they could fix it in the back end. 306 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: And long story short, we literally just made it to 307 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: our gate. We got through customs, they changed my name, 308 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: they got my immigration okayed me, and we literally were 309 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: the last people walking on the plane and we were 310 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: there three hours early. So anyway that happened, I was 311 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: just like, oh my god, I guess like invoking that 312 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: asking the divine and just being like, look, if this 313 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: is meant to happen, please help me, Please let this 314 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: go through, and if it's not, I accept. It was 315 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 1: just so necessary during this period. So yeah, that was 316 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: a bit of a shit shit show. Long story, I 317 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: guess like the takeaways from this is like, just like 318 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: get everything sorted before we go to the airport. And 319 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: I know that's like self explanatory, but I think I 320 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: just like had so much trust in like flight Center 321 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 1: and just everything being fine, and I just felt like 322 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,640 Speaker 1: a bit of an idiot. But it all worked out. 323 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: We got on the plane, we got there, and honestly 324 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: there was no other hiccups moving forward. And I just 325 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: remember this feeling, and this is going to make sense 326 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: to my riots and Conker Project girls of just locking 327 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: in the core belief of if this is meant for us, 328 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: it will work out, if that makes sense, and if 329 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: it's not, it is okay, because I really could have 330 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: just like spiraled and crumbled crumbled. But it's like obviously 331 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: Tim really helped because it really pulled me together. But yeah, 332 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 1: that was that was the start of our all day. 333 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: But anyway, we got there, We had the most beautiful time. 334 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: It was stunning weather. It was stunning weather, and it 335 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 1: was perfect because it was their winter. But it was 336 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: like still hot. It was twenty eight degrees sort of thing. 337 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: But it's like wasn't too hot. You know how some 338 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: tropical places are just like they're a bit hot. It 339 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: wasn't too hot. It was perfect. I definitely recommend Six 340 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,640 Speaker 1: Senses Fiji. Not sponsored or gifted or anything like that. 341 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: We paid for everything ourselves. We stayed in so they 342 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 1: have villa and then residences, so we stayed in a residence. 343 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,439 Speaker 1: So it is a four bedroom villa sort of thing. Obviously, 344 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: because Cooper and Ash was supposed to come, so we 345 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: needed the bedroom. So it was just like me and 346 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 1: Tim in this big villa. But it was beautiful and 347 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: it was lovely. It was quite expensive, just to be 348 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: very honest, So just like I noticed obviously, like the 349 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 1: accommodation was quite expensive. But I'm someone who I really 350 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: I love paying money for good accommodation and for like 351 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: the lifestyle when you're holidaying. But even like the food 352 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: and everything was just quite extensive. Like I got a massage, 353 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: a ninety minute massage, and it was like four hundred Australian. 354 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: You know that when you stay at a resort, a 355 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: bougie resort, but everything's expensive, like the food, everything like that. 356 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: And I guess, I don't know. I've never been to Fiji, 357 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: so I don't know if that's normal. I think I 358 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: just wasn't expecting that. But it was amazing and yeah, 359 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: so we had a really good time and it was 360 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: a really good trip with Ivy. So this was our 361 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: first international flight, well, Ivy's first flight. Yeah, Ivy's first 362 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: flight in general. So I've had questions about what we 363 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: did on the flight. I packed, you know, a couple 364 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: of bottles, her sippy cup, everything empty, just because obviously 365 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: you go through customs internationally and you can't have more 366 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: than one hundred millis. I did pack her baby food 367 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 1: and you know, all those sorts of things. And as 368 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: soon as we got on the flight, I just asked 369 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: the flight attendant if she could fill up her bottle 370 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 1: with boiling water and then I just let that cool. 371 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: We put water into a sippy cup and she just 372 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: sipped on that as she went up for her ears, 373 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: so they weren't blocked and she was really good. You know, 374 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: we just like fed her, and then she slept for 375 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: a little bit, and then she played for a little bit. 376 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: She did cry a couple of times, but him just 377 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: had to like kind of get up and entertain her, 378 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: and you know, it's it's just gonna happen, like babies 379 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: are babies. And also Ivy's a bit temperamentalso she wasn't 380 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: like sitting still. So the flight was okay. It was 381 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: only three and a half to four hours. I did 382 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: say to Tim though, I don't know, so Ivy's eight months, 383 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: but I just I don't know if I would do 384 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 1: a longer flight with her, because she was pretty over 385 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: it towards the end and it was getting not stressful, 386 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: but just you know when you like can't relax and 387 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: you're just like wanting to be there ready. So don't 388 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: know how like a longer flight would go. You'd almost 389 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: I've seen people literally you can put a cot at 390 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: the back of the aeroplane seats and the baby can 391 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: sleep in there. So if you are traveling like overseas, 392 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: like to America or something, I think you would definitely 393 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 1: do something like that, because yeah, even just like a 394 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: three to four hour flight, she was getting pretty over it. 395 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: But she did really well, and everyone on the plane 396 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 1: was like, oh, she's so good, and me and Tim 397 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: were sitting there like, you know, just a bit stressed out, 398 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: cannot relax, but it's fine. You do what you gotta do. 399 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: In regards to like the holiday with Ivy, again, the 400 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: time difference wasn't too bad. It's only a two hour 401 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: time difference. So in regards to her naps, we kind 402 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: of just tried to keep them very similar to at 403 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: home rather than times we just go off her a 404 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: wake windows, so her wake windows right now are two 405 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,959 Speaker 1: and a half to three hours, and then she had 406 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: two day naps that are usually an hour and a 407 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: half long. She did wake up a couple of times 408 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 1: during the night, and I do think that's mostly because 409 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: the cot that the hotel provided just you know, was 410 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: like a porter coot and it was quite small, and 411 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 1: I feel like she kind of just rolled too much 412 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: and got caught in, you know, the sides and woke 413 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 1: herself up. So the first couple of nights we were 414 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: like putting her back to sleep was like, which was fine. 415 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 1: You know, when you're holiday and not doing too much 416 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: during the day, you don't mind getting up. And then 417 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 1: she started to sleep through probably by like the third night. 418 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: And yeah, so the time difference also wasn't too bad. Again, 419 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: it was only two hours. I like definitely noticed she 420 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: was a little bit unsettled, but it was fine. And 421 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: then like just you know, I brought all her medication, 422 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: all her like nappies, all her wipes, everything that she needed, 423 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: like her cot sheets, blankets, all outfits, everything she needed, 424 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: just because I didn't want a chance having to like 425 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 1: try and find somewhere to buy things, even though I'm 426 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: sure you can buy all the items. I just preferred 427 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,679 Speaker 1: to have everything, and babies like get their own like 428 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: travel luggage allowance, so like she had her own suitcase 429 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,239 Speaker 1: with everything in it. We did bring her prem and 430 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 1: we didn't use it just because if we needed to 431 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: go anywhere, we would just get a buggy around and 432 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 1: she just sat on our laps. Otherwise she would just 433 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: like walk with her and it was fine. I did 434 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: use her carrier for when we were in the airport. 435 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: Definitely recommend that just so you can have some hands 436 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: free to like you know, hand your passport over and 437 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: go through customs and all that sort of thing. Otherwise 438 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: I just packed everything and feeding her was fine too, 439 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: because we would just like boil water and have that 440 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: ready for her and just hand wash all her bottles. 441 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, the trip, it wasn't too bad at all, 442 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 1: and Ivy was really good, obviously, like holidaying with a 443 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: baby is going to be different. To be very transparent 444 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: with you, we had the best holiday and we had 445 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: so much relaxing time just us because our room actually 446 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 1: came with a nanny. So I remember reading like the 447 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: online description and it said nanny comes with room and 448 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 1: I remember thinking like what and I kind of just 449 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: was like, oh, yeah, like kids club or whatever. But 450 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: when we got there, well actually the first night, because 451 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: we got there in the afternoon and so we went 452 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: straight to the hotel dinner, and Ivy was just sitting 453 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: with us on a high chair and she was so 454 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,120 Speaker 1: tired from the day and we were trying to feed 455 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: her and she was cracking it. And you know, you're 456 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: in this like nice restaurant, and you feel bad because 457 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: people that you know trying to relax and they've got 458 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: this crying baby. And so like Tim, you know, stood 459 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: up and tried to chill her out while I had 460 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: my dinner, and then we were going to swap but 461 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: I just said, let's just get it delivered to the room, 462 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: put her to bed, and then we can just like relax. 463 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: So that happened the first night, and I was thinking, 464 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: oh my god, every time we eat, this is going 465 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 1: to happen, just because at home, like you know, we 466 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: get Ivy sorted, we put her to bed, and then 467 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 1: we eat and breakfast and lunch the same sort of thing. 468 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: Like you always get baby done first and then you 469 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: can joy after. But it is very hard when you're 470 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,239 Speaker 1: going to you know, restaurants and eating out to like 471 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: work out the timing. So that happened the first night, 472 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh my god, we're gonna have 473 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: to just like order to the room every night. Ivy 474 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: also is just a bit temperamental with things like that. 475 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: So I know, for instance, my girlfriend who has a 476 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 1: baby the same age, he's just so different, like he 477 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: will just sit there and chill and just like, oh 478 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: my god, he's so good, and Ivey's just not like that. 479 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: And it's fine. I love her. She's just you know, 480 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: she's a fiery gal. She's a Sagittarius. But yeah, it 481 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: just does make things a little bit difficult. And then 482 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: so the next day we were out breakfast and again 483 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: Ivy was in the high chair. We're feeding her some food. 484 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: She's really good at breakfast, but it was like towards 485 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: the end where me and Tim were trying to finish 486 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,919 Speaker 1: out breakfast and she was cracking it. And then oh 487 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: my god, guys, the Fiji and people are just so lovely, 488 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: so lovely, and they're obsessed with babies, so they're obsessed 489 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 1: with kids, and so she's kind of cracking it. And 490 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,959 Speaker 1: then this lady just like comes over and picks up 491 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: Ivy and like gives her kisses and then just like 492 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: walks away, and me and him are like, what is happening? 493 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: But we could like see them over at the lounge, 494 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: and then we finished breakfast and then yeah, so this 495 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: woman was like, oh, I'm Sally, I'm your nanny. So 496 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: anytime you need me to look after Ivy, you know, 497 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: just text me. She gave me her WhatsApp and she 498 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: was like literally our full time nanny the whole time. 499 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: So what would we What we would do is like 500 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: Ivy would wake up, we'd give her bottle in the morning, 501 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: we then head to breakfast, we give her her solids, 502 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: and then as soon as she kind of started to 503 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: get over it. The nanny would come and like get 504 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: her and play with her where we finished her breakfast, 505 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: and then we would go to the room and get 506 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: her a bit sorted, and then we would put her 507 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: down for a nap. And then instead of because the 508 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: first day, Ivy went down for a nap and me 509 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: and Tim were just like, you know, waiting around because 510 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 1: you just you can't obviously leave the room while the 511 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: baby's sleeping. And then so the nanny would literally just 512 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: come over and watch Ivy and me and Tim could 513 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: like go stand up paddle boarding or go snorkeling, or 514 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: go sit by the pool, and then she would just 515 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: text us when Ivy woke up. So it's really weird 516 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: because I just like, I don't know, I didn't know 517 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: that this was a thing. But everyone at the hotel, 518 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: anyone with a young baby, had a nanny and it 519 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: was just like a normal thing. And I just didn't 520 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: know about this. So you don't know if this like 521 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: happened anywhere else, but I don't know if it's like 522 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: a Fijian thing. But it was honestly incredible because we 523 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: got to spend you know, all the incredible time with 524 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: Ivy while she was awake and playing and all that 525 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: sort of thing. But then also me and Tim had 526 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: time to literally sit down and have a meal together. 527 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: And if you're a new parent, you would know what 528 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. You would be like what, because when 529 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: you have a baby, it's just it's really hard to 530 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: connect with your partner because someone's always feeding baby or 531 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: making sure they're okay, or you're talking about baby. And yeah, 532 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: so it was just like really incredible. And don't get 533 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: me wrong, it's not like we didn't see Ivy and 534 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: she was just off in the room. We had her 535 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: with us all the time, and it was just when she, 536 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: you know, started to crack it or she needed to sleep, 537 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: I would just what's up the nanny and she would 538 00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: come and grab her and you know, just help us out. 539 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: And it was just so amazing to have that, because 540 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: when you are a new parent, your relationship does really 541 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: get put on the back burner and it's just what 542 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: it is. And you know, me and Tim have been 543 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: navigating it, but we did comment that to have a 544 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: holiday where we could share a meal together, where me 545 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: and him could have some time to connect, really made 546 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: such a difference. And also my parents joked, you know, 547 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: they've had four kids, and they're like, oh, like a 548 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: holiday with kids is it's not actually a holiday because 549 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: you're just worrying about the kids all the time. And 550 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: so I was like, not worried about that, but you know, 551 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: obviously we're not going to not holiday. So I just 552 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: kind of went into it thinking, Oh, I'm not going 553 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: to be the most relaxed. It's just about you know, 554 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: getting through this. So it's all good. It is what 555 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: it is. So I very much went into the holiday 556 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: thinking it was going to be like that, and then 557 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: when this happened, I just had my mind opened and 558 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, Wow, I'm making sure 559 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: every hotel we stay out next has a kid's club. No, no, no. 560 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: But it like really made a difference, especially because it 561 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: was just me and Tim with Ivy. So yeah, that 562 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: was like a really random side of it, because, like 563 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: I said, going into this holiday before, I was feeling 564 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: really burnt out and I was really craving some time 565 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: with Tim and just like some relaxing time, and we 566 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 1: got to have that as well as so much time 567 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 1: and so much family time. So it really was like 568 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: one of the most incredible holidays ever, because obviously we 569 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: had IVY, obviously we got to spend some time together, 570 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,959 Speaker 1: and I do feel really relaxed, and a week was 571 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: like the perfect time because I feel like previously me 572 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 1: and Tim always book holidays for five days. I don't 573 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: know why, and then I feel like, just as the 574 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: fifth day, you're just relaxing and then you've got to 575 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: like go back to the real world. So to have 576 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: seven days was perfect because on Saturday, the day before 577 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: we left, me and Tim both said, we feel like 578 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: we're ready for home. We feel like we're ready for routine, 579 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: and I just I love what I do. So I 580 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: was so ready to like come home and record this 581 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: podcast and get back into it. But it was such 582 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: an amazing time. And yeah, and I yeah, I just 583 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: wanted to be like very transparent about the nanny thing 584 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: because you guys would have seen like a lot of 585 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 1: content of just me and Tim hanging out and having 586 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: dinner together and special time. And I never want to Yeah, 587 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: I don't not like lie about anything, but I just 588 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: want to be like very transparent. And me and Tim 589 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: did feel like really weird about it at the start, 590 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: because I don't know, I think I had some like 591 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: limiting beliefs around it, because I remember growing up and 592 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: my mum kind of saying like, oh, we never put 593 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: you guys into you know, kids club because we want 594 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 1: to spend time with you, and she almost like frowned 595 00:33:56,600 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: upon doing that, if that makes sense. And obviously to 596 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 1: put it in context, my mom is like the most maternal, 597 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: best mum ever, and like I've when she put me 598 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: in Kindy, I cried the first day obviously, like every 599 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: child who goes to Kindy, So she just never took 600 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,399 Speaker 1: me back, like she goes, Oh, you cried, you didn't 601 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: want to be there, so I just never took you 602 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: back to Kindy, Like that's her thing is. She just 603 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 1: was very we were you know, wrapped in cotton wool 604 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: sort of things. So she was like, oh, well, you 605 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 1: never wanted to go to kids club, so we would 606 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: never put you in kids cub. So I had this 607 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: like weird thing that it's like you could never do 608 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 1: that on holidays. But now my mind is opened because it, Yeah, 609 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: it made the trip really relaxing, which so many people 610 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: were like, oh, you don't get a holiday when you're 611 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: holiday with kids. Anyway, that's a bit of a ramp. 612 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 1: But it was incredible and I'm feeling really refreshed, and 613 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: I got so many exciting ideas for the potty And 614 00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: like I said, I really feel like I'm stepping in 615 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,280 Speaker 1: to this like new transition as Georgie as a mum 616 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: who was just so different to Georgie last year. And 617 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: I'm really excited to start making decisions from this place. 618 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 1: After doing week one of the project last week with everyone, 619 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: I just feel so much more clear on what this 620 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 1: next chapter looks like and what I want. And yeah, 621 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 1: I'm just really really excited to move forward from this place, 622 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: if that makes sense. So it was like the perfect 623 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: holiday because it's almost like this like endpoint and you know, 624 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: of a new chapter. So yes, it was incredible. It 625 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: was really good with Ivy. I yeah did not like 626 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: if you are traveling with an infant, don't get too stressed, 627 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: because like the hotel was so good. And also that's 628 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: another thing. It's like we bought heaps of those food 629 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: pouches for her because we just didn't know, but the 630 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 1: hotel just like purade her food, so she would just 631 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 1: be like, oh, can she have chicken and you know, vegetables, 632 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: and they just like puried her food and gave it 633 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: to us and everything was like, yeah, really done well 634 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: and we really did not have to stress. So yes, 635 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: that was amazing. A little update with Ivy. So she's 636 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 1: literally eight months yesterday, guys. It's just incredible. So she 637 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 1: has started crawling. She started crawling, she's on the move, 638 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 1: she's loving that. She's having two sleeps a day. She's 639 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: still sleeping through and she's having about four bottles a 640 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: day and then she has solids three times a day, 641 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: so she eats a lot of food. She's a big 642 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 1: baby for her age. I'm told literally, when we first 643 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: got to Fiji, one of the Fijian women women was like, 644 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: how old is she? I'm like, oh, she's she's about 645 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: to be eight months. And she's like, oh, she's so 646 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: big for an eight month old, so long, and I'm like, oh, 647 00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: that's so funny because I'm so short. So yeah, Ivy 648 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,280 Speaker 1: is doing really well. And I just feel like eight 649 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: months at like from six months, from six months to 650 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 1: now has been such a sweet spot for me just 651 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: feeling confident as a mom. I felt like before she 652 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,720 Speaker 1: was six months, I just did not know what was happening. 653 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: And I really struggled with like what does she need, 654 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: what is happening, what's her routine? And I was like 655 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 1: really fixed on like finding the perfect routine. And I 656 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,840 Speaker 1: don't know, it's like, since she's hit six months, I 657 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: feel like I've been able to relax and just feel 658 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 1: really confident with my decisions with her, and like, I 659 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,959 Speaker 1: don't know, I just like, intuitively, I feel like being 660 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: a mother is coming a lot more natural, and I 661 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: feel like before that it didn't feel like that. And 662 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: so you know, if you do have a baby and 663 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: you're kind of feeling like kind of like me where 664 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: it was like being a mother isn't coming natural to you, 665 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: I just want to say, like, it does come, and 666 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: just relax into it. I know a lot of women, 667 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 1: you know, it's like the baby's born, and they straight 668 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: away just like, oh, you know, perfect maternal, that sort 669 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 1: of thing. But I'm saying, like me personally, it honestly 670 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: didn't feel like that until I view was six months old. 671 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 1: So don't don't stress, because it does come. And I feel, yeah, 672 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: I just feel like more intuitive with her and more 673 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: confident with her, and like I know what she needs 674 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: and I know her certain cries and just more in 675 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 1: tune with her. And it's also just such a beautiful 676 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: age because she's obviously sitting up and she's crawling and 677 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: she's laughing, and I just feel like she gets life 678 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: a bit more and it's obviously, like you just I 679 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: just am enjoying this face so much in regards to 680 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: like me. So obviously I'm eight months postpartum, I am. 681 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm feeling really good energy wise, and 682 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: I think that's because whose Ivy has been sleeping through 683 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: since she was twelve weeks old, so three months, so 684 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 1: I've been getting amazing sleep and I know that's not 685 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,360 Speaker 1: always the case, and sleep has just made such a 686 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 1: difference for me. I've been working out a couple of 687 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,439 Speaker 1: times a week. I still, you know, am nowhere near 688 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 1: my prebody baby, and I just like, I don't even 689 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: know if that's ever gonna come, and I'm just not 690 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: too worried about it. I'm still like ten kilos heavier, 691 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: and I think, like that's normal and it's all good. 692 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know, trying to navigate that and 693 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: work within that. And I'll probably do a whole episode 694 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: on that because it is really weird, because you know, 695 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: like obviously your prebody baby was still your body, but 696 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,439 Speaker 1: it's like I have a new body now and I'm 697 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,439 Speaker 1: like just getting used to it and it's all good. 698 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: But you do, you know, you do still feel pressures 699 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: and it still feels like weird sometimes because it's like you, 700 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 1: but it's a new you, so like still navigating that. 701 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 1: But I'm doing really good physically and mentally. I just 702 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 1: feel like since the sixth month mark, I have just, like, 703 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: like I said, just felt a lot more confident as 704 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: a mum and you know, got into more of a 705 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 1: routine with going back to work, and Ivy's in a 706 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: great routine and me and him have kind of worked 707 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: out what it looks like for him to be at 708 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,280 Speaker 1: home and me to be at work and us finding 709 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 1: time together and all these things. It definitely took a 710 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: lot of time and we're still working it out, but 711 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 1: it does. It feels really good. But yeah, so that's 712 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: just a bit of an update.
