00:00:10.949 --> 00:00:15.970
I'm Victoria. Hey guys, I'm Carly Welcome back

00:00:15.970 --> 00:00:19.329
to the video if you have been watching us and

00:00:19.329 --> 00:00:21.510
then like kind of haven't recently We've had

00:00:21.510 --> 00:00:24.589
issues because that is life and we're still learning

00:00:24.589 --> 00:00:27.649
and by we I mean Pedro's doing all the work Carly

00:00:27.649 --> 00:00:29.969
and I just kind of sit back bat our eyes. I mean

00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:32.159
To be fair, Victoria just said, we're going to

00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:34.020
do this. And I said, I don't understand. Just

00:00:34.020 --> 00:00:36.500
point to me when I'm supposed to talk. And you

00:00:36.500 --> 00:00:40.740
know what? I didn't. I didn't. Yeah, you just

00:00:40.740 --> 00:00:42.500
started talking. I was like, oh, I guess I guess

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:48.700
it's time. So the whole conversation today is

00:00:48.700 --> 00:00:52.240
a Carly on the spot. Spot, spot, spot, spot.

00:00:53.020 --> 00:00:54.799
We've done them in a minute. I wasn't aware of

00:00:54.799 --> 00:01:00.700
this. We're really just checking in. OK. since

00:01:00.700 --> 00:01:07.000
hot girl checkin what what eats baloney no what

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:09.140
that was one of them and that's the only one

00:01:09.140 --> 00:01:13.400
i can ever remember hot girl checkin what what

00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:16.159
eats baloney i don't know why that's what it

00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:17.879
is every time it must have happened oh my god

00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:20.159
i don't remember that part at all well it's like

00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:22.280
a one -time thing it wasn't like ever i don't

00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:24.319
know now i don't now i'm questioning everything

00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:27.989
it's a silly thing We're doing a check -in. We're

00:01:27.989 --> 00:01:31.189
doing a check -in of not just from January, because

00:01:31.189 --> 00:01:33.329
it's not necessarily six months from January.

00:01:34.870 --> 00:01:38.390
Nope. I had to count. She counted on her fingers.

00:01:38.709 --> 00:01:40.890
And you started with your thumb. Yeah, how do

00:01:40.890 --> 00:01:43.590
you start counting? Yeah, never mind, never mind,

00:01:43.590 --> 00:01:45.090
never mind, never mind. It's my thumb. Yeah,

00:01:45.090 --> 00:01:48.409
it's not weird. For lots of different reasons.

00:01:49.069 --> 00:01:51.250
We've, I think, you said this the other day,

00:01:51.390 --> 00:01:54.329
that January to now, or like the year so far

00:01:54.329 --> 00:01:59.040
to now, Has been so fast the fastest I think

00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:02.060
of September to now as my school year. Okay.

00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:06.000
Yeah, so not necessarily 2025 Well, yeah, but

00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:11.099
like I guess because I Constantly am in school

00:02:11.099 --> 00:02:14.280
versus summer mode that I am like September.

00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:16.860
Oh my gosh. We're at summer vacation almost How

00:02:16.860 --> 00:02:20.199
did we get here? Yeah, and I'm very happy about

00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:23.759
super Yeah, super excited about a little break

00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:27.490
time. Yeah. Oh Summer's not a break for us, but

00:02:27.490 --> 00:02:30.069
the studio closes. So we get ours back. We get

00:02:30.069 --> 00:02:32.169
ours back. But then there's dance. I do like

00:02:32.169 --> 00:02:34.150
how you're saying everything exactly after I

00:02:34.150 --> 00:02:37.990
say it. But I do what you do because yours seems

00:02:37.990 --> 00:02:44.550
to work. So yours seems to work. All right. So

00:02:44.550 --> 00:02:47.509
since September. So if we take it back to September.

00:02:49.569 --> 00:02:53.870
It's been a roller coaster. Yeah. In a good way.

00:02:53.930 --> 00:02:56.580
Yeah. No. I was just going through the emotions.

00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:02.039
Don't agree just to agree. I was using, I was

00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:03.560
method acting. Go ahead. Yeah, yeah. No, it's

00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:06.159
been a roller coaster. I don't think anybody

00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:09.139
believes you at this point. At this, you've taken

00:03:09.139 --> 00:03:12.379
it too far. I don't believe you. There's just,

00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:16.060
it's just been such a whirlwind. I think maybe

00:03:16.060 --> 00:03:17.659
more so than a roller coaster. Cause like we

00:03:17.659 --> 00:03:20.580
haven't had like low lows this year so far. God,

00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.400
not one would. I mean, January was a long month.

00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.439
January was the longest January that ever was.

00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:31.000
Yeah, we had a lot of sicknesses. Yes. And that's

00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:33.620
why I think January was rough. You personally.

00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:36.159
Yes. January, February, when was your trip from

00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:39.560
hell? February. Wait, tell us about your trip

00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:42.479
from hell. I did in an episode. You did? Yeah.

00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:44.759
You don't listen to our episodes. I don't listen

00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:48.360
to you. It was a neurovirus weekend, right? Yeah,

00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:51.340
it was horrible. Everybody was throwing up. in

00:03:51.340 --> 00:03:57.020
an Airbnb. It was a disaster. But luckily, knock

00:03:57.020 --> 00:03:59.340
on wood, my kids have not gotten sick since February,

00:03:59.460 --> 00:04:03.939
but our mom has. So Carm had COVID like 77 times

00:04:03.939 --> 00:04:06.580
this year. I don't think she ever got rid of

00:04:06.580 --> 00:04:10.620
it. No. Wasn't it supposed to be like, you're

00:04:10.620 --> 00:04:13.979
good for six weeks at least after you have COVID

00:04:13.979 --> 00:04:16.319
to not get it again. And she'd be like two weeks

00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:18.810
later. Guys, I have COVID again. So then it was

00:04:18.810 --> 00:04:20.870
false positive stuff. There was something weird.

00:04:21.029 --> 00:04:25.029
But she's definitely gotten hit. But I will say,

00:04:25.269 --> 00:04:27.449
Carm, you're not watching. No. You're not listening.

00:04:27.589 --> 00:04:29.829
No. I know that. She doesn't take care of herself

00:04:29.829 --> 00:04:32.870
very well. Yeah. She doesn't sleep well. She

00:04:32.870 --> 00:04:37.850
binges at the end of the night of bad TV and

00:04:37.899 --> 00:04:40.699
fights herself of like sleeping, like waking

00:04:40.699 --> 00:04:42.740
up, sleeping, waking up, and doesn't go to bed.

00:04:43.019 --> 00:04:45.779
She doesn't drink water. And just runs herself

00:04:45.779 --> 00:04:48.240
ragged, like doesn't sit down, doesn't know how

00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:50.000
to, everything we've been talking about on the

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.120
podcast for two years has not done anything.

00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:55.040
Well, she's definitely listening because she's

00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:58.500
doing the break. She's on a take, take a break

00:04:58.500 --> 00:05:00.600
from bettering herself. I thought you were going

00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:02.939
to make fun of me, but you sort of did. I am.

00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:05.500
I did actually. You missed it. I think you missed

00:05:05.500 --> 00:05:10.149
it. So yeah, she got hit. I got a lot of sickness

00:05:10.149 --> 00:05:12.529
this year, too, for the first time. I haven't

00:05:12.529 --> 00:05:15.290
been this sick since COVID. So I don't know.

00:05:15.949 --> 00:05:17.670
But none of this is important to talk about.

00:05:17.670 --> 00:05:20.829
None of this matters. I think it's important

00:05:20.829 --> 00:05:24.889
to do a check -in, whether it's six months into

00:05:24.889 --> 00:05:26.709
your year and you're going to go from January

00:05:26.709 --> 00:05:29.129
or if it's from September to whatever you want

00:05:29.129 --> 00:05:32.829
to constitute your year as. Because I think that's

00:05:32.829 --> 00:05:34.990
when all of a sudden the year's over and you're

00:05:34.990 --> 00:05:37.569
like, well, what happened? and I didn't do anything

00:05:37.569 --> 00:05:41.189
that I wanted to do or you tell yourself those

00:05:41.189 --> 00:05:44.230
stories because you do you specifically do too

00:05:44.230 --> 00:05:47.430
much. Yes. Like you don't let the kids sit for

00:05:47.430 --> 00:05:50.149
a weekend. But I feel like they do. I feel like

00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:54.610
I do. But when the times are fast and furious,

00:05:54.709 --> 00:05:57.550
it like all hits at once. And when the slow times

00:05:57.550 --> 00:06:06.029
are slow, they're slow. Wow. It's just like this

00:06:06.029 --> 00:06:08.850
upcoming weekend. Everything is happening. I've

00:06:08.850 --> 00:06:12.110
got six things to do in each single day that

00:06:12.110 --> 00:06:14.430
I have to get to. But like not every weekend

00:06:14.430 --> 00:06:17.550
is like that. I don't particularly love weekends

00:06:17.550 --> 00:06:20.670
like this coming up where every hour on the hour

00:06:20.670 --> 00:06:23.769
is something. I think it's May. That's May. Yeah,

00:06:23.829 --> 00:06:26.889
is that just May? Well, it's communions. If you're

00:06:26.889 --> 00:06:29.850
whether you're, you know, Catholic or know a

00:06:29.850 --> 00:06:31.529
lot of Catholic people. You have communion parties.

00:06:32.089 --> 00:06:34.569
You have end of year graduation parties that

00:06:34.569 --> 00:06:36.930
are coming up. I just got another invite. We

00:06:36.930 --> 00:06:39.620
have another one in May. You do? I don't. Did

00:06:39.620 --> 00:06:41.120
too, but you haven't seen it yet because you

00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:42.579
haven't been to the studio because you had a

00:06:42.579 --> 00:06:46.980
trip from hell again. She had a second one ending

00:06:46.980 --> 00:06:49.160
yesterday and the trip was not, the trip was

00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:51.319
not bad. No, it was fast and furious. Who goes

00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:54.259
to Kentucky for 36 hours? I'm raising my hand.

00:06:54.379 --> 00:06:58.259
We only go to Kentucky for 36 to 48 hours. That's

00:06:58.259 --> 00:07:00.620
what our family does. We go, we go for a specific

00:07:00.620 --> 00:07:02.579
event to see our brother and his family and like

00:07:02.579 --> 00:07:05.660
we peace out. It just so happens that we were

00:07:05.660 --> 00:07:08.759
in the airport on Friday and Monday longer. than

00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.459
we were in Kentucky. Like we spent more time

00:07:11.459 --> 00:07:13.600
in the airport trying to get home than we were

00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:17.019
actually with the kids and Billy. Oh my God.

00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:21.100
Katie, yeah. Although side note, the little time

00:07:21.100 --> 00:07:24.540
that we did hang out, Billy and Katie, our brother's

00:07:24.540 --> 00:07:29.519
girlfriend, did say. I think you guys should

00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.500
not call yourself a fitness and wellness podcast.

00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:35.019
I think you guys need to rename the podcast and

00:07:35.019 --> 00:07:41.160
put it under comedy and fit to be funny or something

00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:43.620
like that. I know. And he was like, because you

00:07:43.620 --> 00:07:46.060
guys, it's a comedy podcast. Well, because I

00:07:46.060 --> 00:07:48.199
don't think we think we're funny. I think that's

00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:51.439
why. Right. So that's why we wouldn't do that.

00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:53.800
There was a meme, you guys know I like to talk

00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.079
about memes, that literally said, you posted

00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:59.009
it about something about being cringe. Did you

00:07:59.009 --> 00:08:01.209
put it to be real? Yeah, if you know, you know,

00:08:01.209 --> 00:08:04.149
I'm like, oh no, I know I'm cringe. Yeah, that's

00:08:04.149 --> 00:08:07.230
part of my personality. I was born cringe. I

00:08:07.230 --> 00:08:09.449
don't like the word cringe. Why isn't it cringy?

00:08:09.550 --> 00:08:12.810
Oh, yeah, I was born to be cringy like I that's

00:08:12.810 --> 00:08:19.569
that's maybe one of my That's one of my main

00:08:19.569 --> 00:08:21.810
personality traits I've been like this my whole

00:08:21.810 --> 00:08:24.269
life. I'm okay with it. I don't think it's particularly

00:08:24.269 --> 00:08:31.629
funny But Billy was like, no, I think you guys

00:08:31.629 --> 00:08:34.289
really need to steer away from the fitness. Does

00:08:34.289 --> 00:08:36.350
that mean he's listening? I feel like he and

00:08:36.350 --> 00:08:38.289
Katie do, because Katie was like, yeah, you guys

00:08:38.289 --> 00:08:40.990
are funny. I mean, when do you guys talk about

00:08:40.990 --> 00:08:46.129
the wellness? I was like, da, da, da. I was like,

00:08:46.250 --> 00:08:48.850
OK, well, I'm going home now. Fit to be fit.

00:08:48.990 --> 00:08:51.210
We'll do little segments. Yeah, we'll do segments.

00:08:53.090 --> 00:08:57.129
Yeah. Well, I love that they're listening. Now

00:08:57.129 --> 00:09:01.269
we should do some real. Shout out to Katie and

00:09:01.269 --> 00:09:03.909
Billy. Shout out to Kentucky. So yeah, they had

00:09:03.909 --> 00:09:07.710
such a horrible travel day yesterday that anything

00:09:07.710 --> 00:09:11.350
going on in my day that made it a 12 hour long

00:09:11.350 --> 00:09:13.809
work day. Because of me. Didn't even matter.

00:09:14.169 --> 00:09:16.389
I mean. No, didn't even matter. Because when

00:09:16.389 --> 00:09:19.690
you're traveling like that, mind you, they had

00:09:19.690 --> 00:09:22.570
three kids with them. who happened to be golden

00:09:22.570 --> 00:09:24.809
children to not make it a horrible situation.

00:09:24.950 --> 00:09:28.110
Mom told me about it yesterday. No, they were

00:09:28.110 --> 00:09:30.970
great. They were great. I didn't have the right

00:09:30.970 --> 00:09:33.850
chargers because Andrew was supposed to fly home

00:09:33.850 --> 00:09:36.909
with us. But Andrew's flight got all messed up

00:09:36.909 --> 00:09:40.769
and he got home at 930 a .m. He was at home and

00:09:40.769 --> 00:09:43.590
he was like, what can I do to help? And I have

00:09:43.590 --> 00:09:46.710
to say, mid -afternoon he texted me and he was

00:09:46.710 --> 00:09:48.470
like, thanks. Thanks for the help with the dogs.

00:09:48.649 --> 00:09:51.139
Also, This pineapple rum you got is amazing.

00:09:51.460 --> 00:09:53.500
Oh, shut up. Don't even tell me that. Don't even

00:09:53.500 --> 00:09:58.320
tell me that. I was like, awesome. And I'm sitting

00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:00.240
there with like wanting to, you know, when you've

00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:02.200
been up for 17 hours, you just want to brush

00:10:02.200 --> 00:10:04.620
your teeth again. I'm in like airplane clothes.

00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:07.159
My hair is in a messy bun and I've got Dean crying

00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:10.039
because he missed his nap and he's at home drinking

00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:13.840
pineapple rum. It's really good rum apparently.

00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:16.019
He was supposed to fly home with us and he had

00:10:16.019 --> 00:10:19.360
the chargers for the tablets So oh my god, so

00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:23.200
we had a 12 -hour fly day with tablets on and

00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:27.179
off Like sharing one charger and everybody's

00:10:27.179 --> 00:10:29.299
stuff was dying now mind you we did not have

00:10:29.299 --> 00:10:31.820
tablets growing up But we didn't fly growing

00:10:31.820 --> 00:10:35.779
up. We didn't fly and there There were never

00:10:35.779 --> 00:10:38.460
any like major issues like this. Yeah, not like

00:10:38.460 --> 00:10:41.539
we were in three airports We were in three states

00:10:41.539 --> 00:10:44.740
yesterday. Yeah, it was just and they were great.

00:10:44.740 --> 00:10:47.159
It's fine. But I felt bad for you because you

00:10:47.159 --> 00:10:48.940
had to teach all the classes when I was supposed

00:10:48.940 --> 00:10:52.399
to be home to teach them. Didn't matter every

00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:54.299
time you guys would check in and I'd be like,

00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.480
oh, no, I'm good. I'm good. Everything's fine.

00:10:57.059 --> 00:10:59.980
I'll happily do everything that's going on today.

00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:04.539
And it's just like airplane. airport food. You

00:11:04.539 --> 00:11:06.159
don't you know what I mean? It's just like a

00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:08.960
long day of I just want to get home and by seven

00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:12.139
o 'clock we finally got home and I was like what

00:11:12.139 --> 00:11:15.320
happened to us today? Well everyone at C -Fit

00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:17.600
is missing you. Oh yeah why are you horrible?

00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:21.559
Last night was rough. Yeah I saw you use one

00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:23.820
to two pound weights and kick it. If I did that

00:11:23.820 --> 00:11:26.080
I'd be tarred and feathered and they'd say bring

00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:31.139
back Victoria. Because I'm the everyman. You're

00:11:31.139 --> 00:11:37.360
special. You're the like 1%. How do you get away

00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:40.059
with doing stuff like that? Because I'm the everyman.

00:11:40.059 --> 00:11:42.460
I know, but that doesn't make any sense. You're

00:11:42.460 --> 00:11:48.200
1%. Because I need breaks and get tired and show

00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:52.100
it, and also complain about what's going on.

00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:56.200
And you are the Energizer Bunny who doesn't really

00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:58.899
take account of reading the room about how they're

00:11:58.899 --> 00:12:00.639
suffering. And you're like, everything's fine.

00:12:00.940 --> 00:12:03.840
I'm fine, we're having a great time, keep going.

00:12:04.580 --> 00:12:09.519
And so I'm them and they know that. I think that's

00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:14.000
my theater degree where I'm like, things are

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:17.820
happening, just push through. And I tell them,

00:12:18.139 --> 00:12:20.120
things are happening, just push through. I think

00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:22.100
that's the difference. Like we were doing, it

00:12:22.100 --> 00:12:24.899
was a bar and tone, I was teaching bar and tone

00:12:24.899 --> 00:12:29.440
on Saturday. we were all still suffering shoulder

00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:32.879
-wise from that. But while we were doing this

00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:35.679
particular song, I was like, guys, I'm just really

00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:38.500
good at faking a smile. But this is horrible.

00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:41.559
Like, I'm struggling. This is not fun. I'm not

00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:43.500
necessarily having a good time. And then they

00:12:43.500 --> 00:12:47.980
were like, oh, I got this. You are like, what,

00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:51.039
like it's hard? Your arm's about to fall off

00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:54.730
and? But in my mind, I'm going. What am I doing?

00:12:54.929 --> 00:12:57.110
But tell them out loud and maybe you won't be

00:12:57.110 --> 00:13:05.429
so scary. But that's not me. Honesty? Yeah. Honesty

00:13:05.429 --> 00:13:08.210
is just not the best policy sometimes. Just keep

00:13:08.210 --> 00:13:12.110
it in, hold it in till you break. I don't like

00:13:12.110 --> 00:13:14.070
how you smiled at me. I don't like how you smiled

00:13:14.070 --> 00:13:17.070
at me after. That was a horrible, co -gate commercial

00:13:17.070 --> 00:13:22.110
smile. No. Anyway. So they're missing you. Okay.

00:13:22.129 --> 00:13:24.679
Well, I'm missing my routine, even though I was

00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:27.940
only away for 48 hours. It's like, when you're

00:13:27.940 --> 00:13:30.240
off, you're off. I did work out at our brother's

00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:32.620
gym. It's just very different. It's like a very,

00:13:32.779 --> 00:13:34.899
I tried to do, they were doing air squats and

00:13:34.899 --> 00:13:37.720
I tried to do hip hops and Billy kept telling

00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:42.080
me to stop. Cause that's embarrassing. Had I

00:13:42.080 --> 00:13:44.080
known I would have felt embarrassment from here.

00:13:44.100 --> 00:13:46.200
We were doing burpees and then it was like, do

00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:49.980
27 air squats. And I was like, hip hop, hip hop.

00:13:51.259 --> 00:13:54.960
Oh my God. Uh -huh. Billy was like, stop it now.

00:13:54.980 --> 00:13:57.480
Stop it now. This is CrossFit. Oh, please. You're

00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:59.899
probably listening to Broadway. No, we were listening.

00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:03.440
Yeah, we were listening to something music -wise.

00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:06.019
That's good. I don't know. I was just dancing.

00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:11.360
We've had definitely very different travel years.

00:14:11.940 --> 00:14:15.559
Like, your travels are more often in terms of

00:14:15.559 --> 00:14:18.940
Vegas. bringing the kids to Shawnee, even if

00:14:18.940 --> 00:14:20.639
it was a bad weekend, just like, that's a trip.

00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:23.100
You went to Vegas again, I think, maybe two or

00:14:23.100 --> 00:14:24.820
three times so far this season. I've gone twice

00:14:24.820 --> 00:14:26.480
this year, yeah. Twice this year. Once in September,

00:14:26.580 --> 00:14:31.179
once in April. Kentucky, I went to Kentucky,

00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:34.220
but it was without children. The flights were

00:14:34.220 --> 00:14:37.360
perfectly fine in September, and it was a bourbon

00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:40.960
festival. It was very different than the communion

00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:44.830
I just sat through at church. So we've tried

00:14:44.830 --> 00:14:47.090
and then I went to Puerto Rico and it was smooth

00:14:47.090 --> 00:14:49.909
sailing perfection. Great. I'm glad your travel

00:14:49.909 --> 00:14:52.990
has just been fantastic this year. Yeah. Yeah,

00:14:53.169 --> 00:14:56.250
I do. I go more often for short amount of times.

00:14:56.769 --> 00:15:00.330
You go less often for maybe like a day or two

00:15:00.330 --> 00:15:01.889
longer. And I don't know which one's better.

00:15:02.330 --> 00:15:05.330
Like I think the situation almost like no. But

00:15:05.330 --> 00:15:07.210
in Kentucky, everyone was like, oh, where's Victoria?

00:15:07.350 --> 00:15:09.159
Why isn't she here? And I was like, well. we

00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:11.500
only get one of us because we don't travel together.

00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:13.019
Yeah. And they're like, why? I was like, well,

00:15:13.019 --> 00:15:15.340
we can't travel together. One of us always has

00:15:15.340 --> 00:15:18.559
to be home. Mom was even asking that. She was

00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:21.039
like, why can't you come? I don't get it. And

00:15:21.039 --> 00:15:23.320
I was like, who's going to teach? Yeah. Who's

00:15:23.320 --> 00:15:26.279
going to run the business? So to that, I say

00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:29.279
no one open your own business. Everyone work

00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:31.580
for someone else and get paid time off. Yeah.

00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:35.980
And sick days. Yep. I don't think I was talking

00:15:35.980 --> 00:15:38.590
about this with a C fitter, actually. Because

00:15:38.590 --> 00:15:43.870
she said, would you encourage acting with your

00:15:43.870 --> 00:15:46.450
kids? Because Andrew and I were actors. And I

00:15:46.450 --> 00:15:50.769
was like, well, yeah. Because if I said no, I'd

00:15:50.769 --> 00:15:55.490
be such a hypocrite. Mom let me do it. But mom

00:15:55.490 --> 00:15:58.090
fought us. Or didn't fight us. That's not fair.

00:16:00.610 --> 00:16:03.350
I don't know if it was necessarily a sat us down

00:16:03.350 --> 00:16:05.429
type of thing. But she was like, I really need

00:16:05.429 --> 00:16:08.139
you to think about this. that you wanna major

00:16:08.139 --> 00:16:11.220
in this, why don't you major in business? She

00:16:11.220 --> 00:16:13.820
gave us the other routes that we should have

00:16:13.820 --> 00:16:19.659
100 % done. Hell no. But I think overall, she

00:16:19.659 --> 00:16:21.120
was always gonna be supportive. I don't have

00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:23.019
to think that. She was always gonna be supportive.

00:16:23.460 --> 00:16:29.460
But I do think the good mom, bad mom thing is

00:16:29.460 --> 00:16:31.039
you still have to let them make the mistake.

00:16:31.179 --> 00:16:33.019
You have to let them do what they wanna do. I

00:16:33.019 --> 00:16:37.200
don't think we made mistakes per se. I do think

00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:39.039
it would have benefited us a little bit more

00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:42.899
to do more of a business side of thing. I think

00:16:42.899 --> 00:16:46.580
that if we did what mom suggested and like minored

00:16:46.580 --> 00:16:48.340
in theater and majored in business, I would have

00:16:48.340 --> 00:16:51.100
dropped out. I mean, I did go to five colleges.

00:16:51.100 --> 00:16:54.460
You did drop out. Wait a second. But I finished.

00:16:54.539 --> 00:16:56.820
I don't know if I would have finished because

00:16:56.820 --> 00:16:58.720
I would have been bored out of my mind. That's

00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:03.679
just not the mind and like life. that I just

00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:05.599
wouldn't have been able to do. I know myself.

00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:08.559
I wouldn't have been able to stick it out. Oh,

00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:11.079
yeah. I mean, I said, well, yeah, I agree. To

00:17:11.079 --> 00:17:13.839
a degree, I agree. Like, and the reason I was

00:17:13.839 --> 00:17:15.480
talking about this with a seafitter is because

00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.619
my middle son is in film acting classes. He wants

00:17:18.619 --> 00:17:21.680
to be a stormtrooper in Star Wars. Just the stormtrooper.

00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:23.420
Just the stormtrooper. But he's actually really

00:17:23.420 --> 00:17:25.700
creative and likes how things work. And I think

00:17:25.700 --> 00:17:27.680
he's really interested in the behind the scenes

00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:31.299
of film, which is still a crapshoot. Like it's

00:17:31.299 --> 00:17:34.000
very hard to get in any aspect of film, right?

00:17:34.059 --> 00:17:36.619
Any of the arts. Yeah. And she said, would you,

00:17:36.700 --> 00:17:38.579
are you going to let them do that for like a

00:17:38.579 --> 00:17:41.640
career? And I said, I can't not. I was allowed.

00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:44.799
I went down a different path eventually, but

00:17:44.799 --> 00:17:46.759
I was allowed to do it. I can't say, no, you

00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:51.819
can't do it. But I like silently really, really,

00:17:52.259 --> 00:17:54.440
really hope they don't and they go work for somebody

00:17:54.440 --> 00:17:58.119
else because working for yourself. Mom, I guess

00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:02.440
made it look easy. So freaking easy. Because

00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:07.220
it's horrible. It's horrible. Now I'm just repeating

00:18:07.220 --> 00:18:12.099
you. But I think that's what it is. Mom made

00:18:12.099 --> 00:18:15.059
it look easy. And so we were like, oh, we can

00:18:15.059 --> 00:18:18.460
do that. And I was like, this is... See? The

00:18:18.460 --> 00:18:21.180
problem with someone going, what, like it's hard?

00:18:22.420 --> 00:18:25.430
Full circle. So that's what mom did. Mom was

00:18:25.430 --> 00:18:26.730
like, what? Like, it's hard? Right. So we were

00:18:26.730 --> 00:18:28.230
like, we could do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We could

00:18:28.230 --> 00:18:30.630
definitely do this. Oh, if Melody was like, I

00:18:30.630 --> 00:18:33.869
want to own my own business, I'd be like, please

00:18:33.869 --> 00:18:38.910
don't. Please. Mind you, mom has a dance studio

00:18:38.910 --> 00:18:43.089
that runs like a school. So she has June, July.

00:18:43.250 --> 00:18:46.609
And August. August. She still works because she

00:18:46.609 --> 00:18:50.700
has to prep for the next season, and it's. Truly

00:18:50.700 --> 00:18:52.779
hell. Oh my god. Hear me look at me when I say

00:18:52.779 --> 00:18:57.359
this is it is hell for everyone around her But

00:18:57.359 --> 00:18:59.839
we don't get that it's like no people's days

00:18:59.839 --> 00:19:01.920
off We work harder because that's a huge deal

00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:05.539
for us and and time off the summers get busier

00:19:05.539 --> 00:19:08.779
Mm -hmm or more effort gets has to be put in

00:19:08.779 --> 00:19:13.000
in In a weird way. So yeah, it's 24 -7. Oh good.

00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:16.769
I'm yay Summer's coming. That's what I said.

00:19:16.890 --> 00:19:19.410
We don't get a break. It's just that the studio

00:19:19.410 --> 00:19:21.450
closes and we also work at the studio. Yeah.

00:19:21.630 --> 00:19:24.930
So I don't know. I mean, I would hope. I think

00:19:24.930 --> 00:19:27.750
the kids don't want to do fitness or dance, so

00:19:27.750 --> 00:19:31.569
I don't have to worry about them going into like

00:19:31.569 --> 00:19:34.410
the family business. But if they want to open

00:19:34.410 --> 00:19:37.569
their own business, I would highly be like, I

00:19:37.569 --> 00:19:40.900
don't know, guys. Take your vacation. Take your

00:19:40.900 --> 00:19:44.180
401k. Take your all that. Get all that stuff.

00:19:44.220 --> 00:19:48.440
Get your paid time off. Get your because it's

00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:50.960
got someone was telling me yesterday, a client

00:19:50.960 --> 00:19:55.039
of mine about. You know, I'm taking a personal

00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:57.500
day or I'm taking a half day for like a doctor's

00:19:57.500 --> 00:19:58.880
appointment, things, things that you have to

00:19:58.880 --> 00:20:02.519
do. And then she was telling me that she had

00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:07.000
an injury. And her paid time off or her sick

00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:12.359
days roll over. So 187 days she took for this

00:20:12.359 --> 00:20:15.920
now very, very long -term injury that needed

00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:20.019
to be taken care of. But 187 days she was getting

00:20:20.019 --> 00:20:23.259
paid as if she worked there. Please don't tell

00:20:23.259 --> 00:20:27.799
me that. I was like, that's amazing. Don't change

00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:31.579
your job. That's amazing. She's a teacher. So

00:20:31.579 --> 00:20:34.440
she struggles in a lot of different other ways.

00:20:35.589 --> 00:20:38.069
I was like, I don't know that life. I don't know

00:20:38.069 --> 00:20:42.529
that life. I will never know that life unless

00:20:42.529 --> 00:20:46.329
Carly dies and the whole thing goes on. Which

00:20:46.329 --> 00:20:51.990
we're not hoping for. I mean, it could happen.

00:20:53.170 --> 00:20:57.250
But I have so many, I don't know. I have so many

00:20:57.250 --> 00:21:00.470
thoughts on this because in some ways, we're

00:21:00.470 --> 00:21:04.079
able to make our own schedule. Are we? No, because

00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:06.039
our schedule surrounds everybody else's lives.

00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:08.740
Exactly. Yeah, yeah, that's true. So no, we don't

00:21:08.740 --> 00:21:15.019
get to make our own schedule. But in other ways,

00:21:15.700 --> 00:21:19.059
we get to take time off, but not together. And

00:21:19.059 --> 00:21:21.059
the only time we actually do get to take time

00:21:21.059 --> 00:21:23.599
off together is when we physically lock the doors

00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:26.859
of CFIT for five days out of the year. and go

00:21:26.859 --> 00:21:30.599
down the shore. And make a minimal shifted schedule

00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:33.140
for the other week. It's a two week thing. Yeah.

00:21:33.460 --> 00:21:35.779
And they're like, we ended up closing those doors

00:21:35.779 --> 00:21:38.519
because we didn't have any help one year. Yeah.

00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:40.460
That's the only reason we closed. And we were

00:21:40.460 --> 00:21:42.240
like, I guess we'll just shut down for this week.

00:21:42.339 --> 00:21:44.700
But then people tend to like it. It almost gives

00:21:44.700 --> 00:21:50.680
everybody the allowance to reset for one fitness

00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:54.880
week of. not necessarily taking off for themselves,

00:21:55.039 --> 00:21:56.559
maybe a lot of people do that, but maybe it's

00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:58.039
just like, well, I'm gonna walk outside more,

00:21:58.140 --> 00:22:00.200
or I'm gonna spend time with my family a little

00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:02.299
bit more at dinnertime, or I'm gonna just change

00:22:02.299 --> 00:22:04.140
my schedule. And then they're ready to come back

00:22:04.140 --> 00:22:06.220
and wrapped up. So it kind of works out for us,

00:22:06.819 --> 00:22:09.900
but we don't get that time. And people, we talk

00:22:09.900 --> 00:22:12.259
about this all the time. People will come up

00:22:12.259 --> 00:22:15.160
and be like, oh, you didn't know? I told Carly

00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:18.920
that weeks ago. And I'm like, oh, no. We don't

00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:21.119
talk. We don't talk. Are those do that to you?

00:22:21.400 --> 00:22:23.279
Like, oh, Victoria doesn't tell anybody about

00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:25.859
anything. So Victoria doesn't tell anybody about

00:22:25.859 --> 00:22:29.539
anything. I just repeated what you said. I'm

00:22:29.539 --> 00:22:32.859
a doctor and it's confidentiality. Though Victoria

00:22:32.859 --> 00:22:35.980
has HIPAA laws, she has VFIT laws. They're called

00:22:35.980 --> 00:22:38.660
HIPAA. It's a little different. They're HIPAA

00:22:38.660 --> 00:22:42.500
laws. Wait, are they? No. No, no, no, no. This

00:22:42.500 --> 00:22:46.900
is you are not fit to be funny. That's not what

00:22:46.900 --> 00:22:51.940
my brother said. It's meant to be sad. Because

00:22:51.940 --> 00:22:53.740
we don't talk. We don't have time to talk. We

00:22:53.740 --> 00:22:56.660
talk about this, the podcast. We talk about C

00:22:56.660 --> 00:23:00.640
-Fit schedules. The dance studio. Crazy things

00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:04.259
that happen in class. Like that's a random not

00:23:04.259 --> 00:23:06.240
business talk, but it's still about the business.

00:23:06.259 --> 00:23:08.680
We talk about the dance studio and how we can

00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:12.799
make every parent happy, which is impossible.

00:23:13.879 --> 00:23:15.380
We're going through it right now. That's why

00:23:15.380 --> 00:23:17.220
she said that. Going through it. Going through

00:23:17.220 --> 00:23:20.119
it. Just be nice to your people. I was just,

00:23:20.619 --> 00:23:22.099
when we were talking about what we were going

00:23:22.099 --> 00:23:23.559
to talk about today, I was like, can we have

00:23:23.559 --> 00:23:27.640
a kindness episode and tell people that when

00:23:27.640 --> 00:23:30.480
you're getting a service, just be kind, and it's

00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:33.799
not working out the way you want to. Yeah. Just

00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:38.099
be nice. You'll get what you want. This is what

00:23:38.099 --> 00:23:40.680
I tell my kids. I was going to say freaking.

00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:44.500
So I tell my you just said it in a weird way

00:23:44.500 --> 00:23:49.519
If you ask for something nicely You're more likely

00:23:49.519 --> 00:23:53.579
to get it than if you ask for it rudely or you're

00:23:53.579 --> 00:23:57.660
sarcastic or mean Like that's goes for adults,

00:23:58.099 --> 00:24:03.680
too. It's a basic common knowledge like you would

00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:07.039
think It would be easy. Maybe not for kids because

00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:10.269
they're learning kids are learning But these

00:24:10.269 --> 00:24:12.930
adults, I mean it's worse. It's worse when it

00:24:12.930 --> 00:24:16.809
comes from an adult I know and it you just want

00:24:16.809 --> 00:24:20.150
to fight back you want to mmm the things that

00:24:20.150 --> 00:24:23.509
I would say and I wanted to post on the Instagram

00:24:23.509 --> 00:24:28.069
for the business and I yesterday was an emotionally

00:24:28.069 --> 00:24:31.910
physically tolling but emotionally tolling day

00:24:31.910 --> 00:24:38.819
of wanting To throw down well remind you Victoria's

00:24:38.819 --> 00:24:42.400
at home with our aunt dealing with some issues

00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:44.900
that we're having with a business. My mom and

00:24:44.900 --> 00:24:47.440
I are going through security with three kids

00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:51.359
and 12 bags, and we're throwing stuff on the

00:24:51.359 --> 00:24:53.940
security, mom's on the phone going, I don't know,

00:24:54.380 --> 00:24:57.339
call them, call them. I'm texting. I'm texting

00:24:57.339 --> 00:25:00.380
like Justin being like, not now, Justin. Sorry,

00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:03.019
Justin. But I was like, we're we're dealing with

00:25:03.019 --> 00:25:05.059
some stuff right now. He was like, I know I'm

00:25:05.059 --> 00:25:08.420
one of them. I know. And it is I was like, where

00:25:08.420 --> 00:25:11.259
are the cameras? Where are the cameras? Are you

00:25:11.259 --> 00:25:14.259
guys at home? Yeah. On us going through security

00:25:14.259 --> 00:25:16.519
and like mom's phone, she doesn't like to put

00:25:16.519 --> 00:25:20.490
on silent. So, ooh -ee, ooh -ah -ah, ting -tang,

00:25:20.589 --> 00:25:22.609
wah -la -bing -bang. Keeps going off constantly

00:25:22.609 --> 00:25:25.470
at the airport. And I'm like, Mom, turn your

00:25:25.470 --> 00:25:27.309
phone on silent. And she's like, then I won't

00:25:27.309 --> 00:25:30.990
hear my phone. And the kids are like, Mom, where's

00:25:30.990 --> 00:25:33.630
the charger? So I was like, oh, my God. Don't

00:25:33.630 --> 00:25:35.309
want to own your own business. Sounds horrible.

00:25:35.569 --> 00:25:37.769
It sounds horrible. Yeah. It sounds horrible.

00:25:37.769 --> 00:25:40.670
But it was wild. But those days, I feel like,

00:25:40.769 --> 00:25:43.690
are few and far between. Like, the really bad

00:25:43.690 --> 00:25:46.769
days, like yesterday with, like, you know, businesses

00:25:46.769 --> 00:25:49.690
and problems. But it would be easier to go back

00:25:49.690 --> 00:25:51.650
to what we started with, with this specific thing.

00:25:51.769 --> 00:25:52.950
Yes, there are a few in between. It would be

00:25:52.950 --> 00:25:54.910
easier if people were just understanding and

00:25:54.910 --> 00:25:58.529
consider it in kind. Yeah. Like, clearly, a third

00:25:58.529 --> 00:26:01.150
party service isn't working out in anyone's favor.

00:26:01.230 --> 00:26:03.309
There's a major glitch. We keep saying there's

00:26:03.309 --> 00:26:05.710
issues. We're trying to get a hold of them. So

00:26:05.710 --> 00:26:09.210
why are you still being so mean? So mean. Like,

00:26:09.349 --> 00:26:11.250
it's just to say it plainly, it's just mean.

00:26:11.349 --> 00:26:15.089
Yeah. It's rude. It's mean. and it's juvenile.

00:26:15.190 --> 00:26:17.769
I think that people are always out for themselves

00:26:17.769 --> 00:26:20.289
instead of stepping back for a second and looking

00:26:20.289 --> 00:26:22.910
at the whole picture and being like, you're not

00:26:22.910 --> 00:26:26.049
gonna be forgotten. You're just, you're not.

00:26:26.509 --> 00:26:28.430
But maybe people feel like they are. I mean,

00:26:28.430 --> 00:26:30.690
I'll forget you. I might forget you on purpose

00:26:30.690 --> 00:26:33.069
because of how you reacted. I'm petty. I will

00:26:33.069 --> 00:26:35.329
be petty. Yeah, I think people just need to be

00:26:35.329 --> 00:26:37.930
nicer in general, especially. Oh my God, Vicky

00:26:37.930 --> 00:26:41.190
had to go on a walk because her blood pressure

00:26:41.190 --> 00:26:42.750
got so high. Her blood pressure was so high.

00:26:44.009 --> 00:26:49.190
She's, who yells at a 77 year old woman who is

00:26:49.190 --> 00:26:51.230
trying, like she's been running this business

00:26:51.230 --> 00:26:53.809
for 30 years. They know what they're doing. So

00:26:53.809 --> 00:26:57.450
if something's wrong, it's out of her control.

00:26:57.990 --> 00:27:01.849
Like screaming at a 77, I was like, I can't.

00:27:01.930 --> 00:27:05.849
More than one. More than one. But this is our,

00:27:06.089 --> 00:27:08.509
this is what you have to deal with, I guess.

00:27:08.549 --> 00:27:14.460
Yeah. We love owning our business Our uncle is

00:27:14.460 --> 00:27:15.859
always like so when you guys gonna take over

00:27:15.859 --> 00:27:19.779
the dance studio, I was like never Because it's

00:27:19.779 --> 00:27:24.960
so much harder to deal with stuff and kids You

00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:27.619
know, it's not the kid. It's the parents. Yeah,

00:27:27.779 --> 00:27:30.880
okay. It's parents. You're one of them. Oh Well,

00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:32.599
I never get the emails because I was taken off

00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:34.660
them. You don't read them just like everybody

00:27:34.660 --> 00:27:37.539
else you don't read them She'll show up and be

00:27:37.539 --> 00:27:40.799
like, when are my kids dancing? I made the charts

00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:46.599
miss They've been up since October I need a personal

00:27:46.599 --> 00:27:49.700
invitation So yeah, they're they're few and far

00:27:49.700 --> 00:27:52.160
between these days, but when they do happen they

00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:53.880
happen at the worst times I mean they do happen.

00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:58.160
They are high high high intensity Because it

00:27:58.160 --> 00:28:00.779
gets emotional when it's people that you've known

00:28:00.779 --> 00:28:05.099
for 20, 30 years that are in their 40s and 50s.

00:28:05.180 --> 00:28:08.440
And you're just like, bleh. Well, see, what I

00:28:08.440 --> 00:28:10.759
want to say in any situation, in any business,

00:28:10.940 --> 00:28:15.500
not just necessarily ours, in anything, no one's

00:28:15.500 --> 00:28:18.900
dying. Because that's what mom said to everything.

00:28:19.339 --> 00:28:21.299
Every time there was an issue, mom, that was

00:28:21.299 --> 00:28:24.309
mom's go -to. Really? Oh, this is a trauma response.

00:28:24.630 --> 00:28:26.849
Because all I wanna do is say it to mom. I wanted

00:28:26.849 --> 00:28:28.549
to say that to mom 70 times yesterday. Oh my

00:28:28.549 --> 00:28:31.329
God, say it. Because that's all she said to us.

00:28:31.710 --> 00:28:35.589
If I was pouting too much for her, and by pouting

00:28:35.589 --> 00:28:40.369
I mean I was in high school, or in my 20s, or

00:28:40.369 --> 00:28:43.809
- In my 30s. Last week. Yeah. If you just, if

00:28:43.809 --> 00:28:45.190
it's something that she thinks you should be

00:28:45.190 --> 00:28:47.970
over, no one's dying. I don't remember that.

00:28:47.970 --> 00:28:50.660
Get over it, no one's dying. She would say it.

00:28:50.660 --> 00:28:52.740
That was her go -to phrase. I have selective

00:28:52.740 --> 00:28:54.799
memory. Ask her about it. She'll tell you. She

00:28:54.799 --> 00:28:56.539
wanted to say that yesterday. Just be like, people,

00:28:57.000 --> 00:29:00.500
we're talking about dance. No one's dying. Take

00:29:00.500 --> 00:29:03.779
a beat. Isn't that a good thing to say? God,

00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:07.299
I hate it. No. Oh, it's not? No. Why? Because

00:29:07.299 --> 00:29:10.640
that invalidates. I mean, yes, invalidate all

00:29:10.640 --> 00:29:13.039
these people that are being rude, but it invalidates

00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:18.960
when you're... You texted me. I'm so mad. about

00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:21.720
these tickets, about how they were purchased

00:29:21.720 --> 00:29:23.740
and the fact that we're in this situation because

00:29:23.740 --> 00:29:26.839
basically mom messed up. Yeah, mom messed up.

00:29:27.579 --> 00:29:31.140
And you were so angry at the first issue out

00:29:31.140 --> 00:29:34.839
of the day of issues of cancellations. You weren't

00:29:34.839 --> 00:29:38.200
even on the New York flight yet at 12. Yeah.

00:29:38.660 --> 00:29:40.180
And you were going, you were going, you were

00:29:40.180 --> 00:29:41.859
going. You just kept saying, I'm so mad. And

00:29:41.859 --> 00:29:43.559
I was like, well, at this point, there's nothing

00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:45.579
you can do about it. You might as well just go

00:29:45.579 --> 00:29:48.849
with the flow. But what if I said, no one's dying

00:29:48.849 --> 00:29:52.650
Carly? Then I would feel like I would say, yeah,

00:29:52.650 --> 00:29:56.250
you're right. No one's dead. No, you are not

00:29:56.250 --> 00:30:00.990
evolved enough for that. You would have been

00:30:00.990 --> 00:30:05.410
like so angry. You would have been angry. You

00:30:05.410 --> 00:30:08.130
would have been like, okay, cool. Cool. All right.

00:30:08.230 --> 00:30:09.829
Thanks. And then you would have not talked to

00:30:09.829 --> 00:30:13.369
me anymore because I invalidated you. I didn't

00:30:13.369 --> 00:30:16.470
sympathize with you and go, oh my God. Because

00:30:16.470 --> 00:30:18.809
in those moments you telling me you're mad. What

00:30:18.809 --> 00:30:21.190
did what did you want me to like? You wanted

00:30:21.190 --> 00:30:24.210
me to go I would be too is that's horrible Which

00:30:24.210 --> 00:30:27.289
is exactly what I said to you because it is but

00:30:27.289 --> 00:30:31.309
if I had said no one's dying get over it Your

00:30:31.309 --> 00:30:33.950
eyes would have gone crazy and bugged out. I

00:30:33.950 --> 00:30:35.849
never would have said get over it. I would have

00:30:35.849 --> 00:30:40.259
said no one's dying things will be fixed. But

00:30:40.259 --> 00:30:42.140
you wouldn't say it like that. You'd go, ma!

00:30:43.700 --> 00:30:47.079
No one is dying. I'm just saying it's something

00:30:47.079 --> 00:30:49.000
that in the moment, it's like telling someone

00:30:49.000 --> 00:30:53.019
to relax. Just relax, chill out, relax. It's

00:30:53.019 --> 00:30:56.599
such an invalidating response when you are in

00:30:56.599 --> 00:31:00.660
an emotional state. Usually it's turmoil, an

00:31:00.660 --> 00:31:03.359
emotional negative state for someone to just

00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:10.279
tell you to cut it off. Whatever. Let them. Let

00:31:10.279 --> 00:31:14.599
them. Case in point. The fact that you said that,

00:31:14.839 --> 00:31:20.519
I hate it so much. If I lasted too long in breakups

00:31:20.519 --> 00:31:23.079
of being sad about it, mom would be like, Tori,

00:31:23.140 --> 00:31:26.359
no one died. Yeah. No one's dying. You didn't

00:31:26.359 --> 00:31:37.180
like that? All right. I'm just kidding. Game

00:31:37.180 --> 00:31:40.779
on. I'm just kidding. Game activated. No, because

00:31:40.779 --> 00:31:42.440
next time you say it to me, I'm just going to

00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:44.059
laugh because I know that you're going to think

00:31:44.059 --> 00:31:45.819
it's a joke. And I'm going to be like, that's

00:31:45.819 --> 00:31:50.400
not funny. This isn't a comedy podcast. Yes.

00:31:51.259 --> 00:31:54.299
It's coming. I'm going to sneak attack you. Guerrilla

00:31:54.299 --> 00:31:59.000
warfare. Here we go. But yes, no one was dying.

00:31:59.000 --> 00:32:00.720
Wait until this weekend when I'm stressed out.

00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:02.539
And I'm sure she's going to say that to me once

00:32:02.539 --> 00:32:05.460
or twice. Communions are so stressful. I'm going

00:32:05.460 --> 00:32:10.160
to put it on the cake. No one's dying. Star Wars.

00:32:10.180 --> 00:32:12.740
Star Wars. It's a Star Wars cake for a communion.

00:32:13.059 --> 00:32:16.099
Let's talk about it. I mean, my Star Wars obsessed

00:32:16.099 --> 00:32:18.759
son is having his communion on May the 4th. Be

00:32:18.759 --> 00:32:25.740
with you. So there's that. Anyway, technically

00:32:25.740 --> 00:32:28.579
someone is dying. It's communion. What? Shut

00:32:28.579 --> 00:32:34.619
up. Let them. What are we talking about? Well,

00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:37.799
we're about done now. Okay. So, the whole point,

00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:41.759
right? This was truly explicit. Shooting the

00:32:41.759 --> 00:32:46.180
shit. Yeah. And I thought about a lot of things

00:32:46.180 --> 00:32:48.220
that we were gonna talk about today that had

00:32:48.220 --> 00:32:50.420
a little more structure to them, had a little

00:32:50.420 --> 00:32:53.200
more help for someone thinking of wanting to

00:32:53.200 --> 00:32:57.799
better themselves, blah, blah, blah. Boo. No,

00:32:57.940 --> 00:32:59.839
not boo, that's the whole, this is our last episode

00:32:59.839 --> 00:33:08.099
everyone. We were on a break. But sometimes trying

00:33:08.099 --> 00:33:12.480
too hard backfires. Sometimes going into something

00:33:12.480 --> 00:33:15.599
because you know it should be a certain way and

00:33:15.599 --> 00:33:20.119
you're scrambling for time. It just, it wouldn't

00:33:20.119 --> 00:33:22.980
be genuine. This is what we had time for today.

00:33:23.819 --> 00:33:28.059
Was to check in on the the year in a very small

00:33:28.059 --> 00:33:31.640
Minor way to check in and just talk about the

00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:34.940
craziness that ensued recently that's fresh on

00:33:34.940 --> 00:33:38.339
our minds so we can move on from it and just

00:33:38.339 --> 00:33:42.400
Just talk yeah, I mean sometimes that's all you

00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:46.920
need and we never do it and we never do it privately,

00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:48.640
so that's why you're here with us. I was just

00:33:48.640 --> 00:33:50.779
going to say thank you for letting us talk for

00:33:50.779 --> 00:33:52.839
30 minutes because I haven't talked to her all

00:33:52.839 --> 00:33:55.539
weekend more than texting. I think we FaceTimed

00:33:55.539 --> 00:33:57.859
once. Yes, I went away for 48 hours and I FaceTimed

00:33:57.859 --> 00:33:59.400
her. And she passed the phone around. I did.

00:33:59.539 --> 00:34:01.059
I passed the phone around so you could see everybody.

00:34:01.220 --> 00:34:02.900
Nobody would have talked to me. They were having

00:34:02.900 --> 00:34:06.059
too much of a good time. Well, to be fair, we're

00:34:06.059 --> 00:34:07.920
going to be honest with you. To be fair. To be

00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:26.099
fair. To be fair. I don't know how to come back

00:34:26.099 --> 00:34:31.179
on that. I don't know, I don't know. To be fair,

00:34:34.719 --> 00:34:39.739
we, and they totally would not care about me

00:34:39.739 --> 00:34:41.079
talking about this because they're very open

00:34:41.079 --> 00:34:43.880
about it. We have a very modern family in Kentucky.

00:34:44.429 --> 00:34:47.969
And our communion this weekend, our brother got

00:34:47.969 --> 00:34:51.030
divorced, our sister -in -law, I still call her

00:34:51.030 --> 00:34:54.949
my sister -in -law. Angie. Angie. The communion

00:34:54.949 --> 00:34:59.829
party was at her mom's house. And we all went

00:34:59.829 --> 00:35:02.510
with my brother, who they are no longer married,

00:35:02.650 --> 00:35:05.269
and my brother's girlfriend, who he lives with,

00:35:05.389 --> 00:35:09.449
and her daughter. So it was like a big, and my

00:35:09.449 --> 00:35:11.630
whole family who, you know, we're not related.

00:35:12.010 --> 00:35:14.329
related anymore because my brother and auntie

00:35:14.329 --> 00:35:18.150
are married well you have blood connection with

00:35:18.150 --> 00:35:20.750
these two kids niece and nephew yeah but it was

00:35:20.750 --> 00:35:24.190
like we were all sitting around with all of you

00:35:24.190 --> 00:35:27.190
know his old in -laws and cousins and family

00:35:27.190 --> 00:35:29.670
that we would have been around for 15 years with

00:35:29.670 --> 00:35:31.920
them so like we know them very well but you know,

00:35:31.920 --> 00:35:33.619
they're not married anymore. And so I was passing

00:35:33.619 --> 00:35:36.659
the phone around to all these people we she hadn't

00:35:36.659 --> 00:35:39.559
seen in a minute because there was a divorce

00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:41.699
happening the past couple of years. And it was

00:35:41.699 --> 00:35:43.239
just funny to me as I was passing it around.

00:35:43.239 --> 00:35:45.619
I'm like, this is normal. Nobody has an issue

00:35:45.619 --> 00:35:48.920
with this. And no one has the issue with looking

00:35:48.920 --> 00:35:54.500
at me. No, it's just like I'm sitting my brother's

00:35:54.500 --> 00:35:57.019
girlfriend's on my left. My sister -in -law,

00:35:57.380 --> 00:35:59.400
ex -sister -in -law is on my right. My brother's

00:35:59.400 --> 00:36:04.199
playing basketball with, you know, his like stepdaughter,

00:36:04.320 --> 00:36:07.679
basically, Addie. And there's grandma Teresa

00:36:07.679 --> 00:36:10.559
over there. And this is normal and it's fine.

00:36:10.760 --> 00:36:13.239
And everyone's happy. And I was sitting around

00:36:13.239 --> 00:36:15.179
just being like, I wish every family was like

00:36:15.179 --> 00:36:17.519
this, because it would be so much easier for

00:36:17.519 --> 00:36:19.940
all the kids because our niece and nephew have

00:36:19.940 --> 00:36:24.619
it are so lucky. That they have this big family

00:36:24.619 --> 00:36:27.380
where everybody can get along now. It took time

00:36:27.380 --> 00:36:30.000
It's been three years two years three years,

00:36:30.300 --> 00:36:33.719
but it's so nice for them Yeah, and for us that

00:36:33.719 --> 00:36:36.380
we can still be a part and not just be like it's

00:36:36.380 --> 00:36:38.960
here or it's here Right, right. It was everybody

00:36:38.960 --> 00:36:41.659
and that's sort of how we grew up as well with

00:36:41.659 --> 00:36:43.900
our parents divorce But like I don't know. It

00:36:43.900 --> 00:36:45.480
was so nice that was passing around the phone

00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:47.260
Victoria was on the phone. You know, we were

00:36:47.260 --> 00:36:49.760
drinking wine but um I was not. She was with

00:36:49.760 --> 00:36:53.159
my dogs. I was four hours deep in the parking.

00:36:54.460 --> 00:36:56.800
But I was just like, oh, this is so nice. How

00:36:56.800 --> 00:36:59.139
modern. I don't know if this is like a modern

00:36:59.139 --> 00:37:02.960
family sort of thing or it's like a newer concept

00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:05.840
of just sort of everybody getting along. And,

00:37:06.079 --> 00:37:07.800
you know, yeah, like you said, it did take time,

00:37:07.820 --> 00:37:09.940
but it was just really nice. That's it. I mean,

00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:12.480
that was the goal. That's always the goal, I

00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:16.139
feel like. Yeah. And mom and dad, I think also

00:37:16.139 --> 00:37:19.010
took time. Sure. Yeah, we don't know anything

00:37:19.010 --> 00:37:21.309
about it. We don't remember either. We were so

00:37:21.309 --> 00:37:24.550
little. I think there was a time. Oh, yes. Yes.

00:37:24.630 --> 00:37:29.250
Yes. But it all ended out and it ended out. Yeah,

00:37:29.409 --> 00:37:33.610
it ended out well. And had my dad been able to

00:37:33.610 --> 00:37:34.869
take time off work, he would have been there,

00:37:34.869 --> 00:37:37.849
too. And that would have been like, you know,

00:37:37.989 --> 00:37:40.949
more. But it was just really nice. And I hope

00:37:40.949 --> 00:37:43.210
all those families out there going through a

00:37:43.210 --> 00:37:46.179
divorce can. move past it for the kids, because

00:37:46.179 --> 00:37:48.679
it was so nice for the kids to look over at the

00:37:48.679 --> 00:37:52.019
church and everybody be there for them. You know

00:37:52.019 --> 00:37:54.019
what I mean? Both sides. The energy was good.

00:37:54.300 --> 00:37:56.539
Yes. And the kids were getting pictures with

00:37:56.539 --> 00:37:59.880
their mom and their stepmom. And that was so

00:37:59.880 --> 00:38:03.019
nice. And we were both, we were all making fun

00:38:03.019 --> 00:38:05.440
of my brother. So that was really fun. Well,

00:38:05.440 --> 00:38:07.579
there is a common denominator. So that makes

00:38:07.579 --> 00:38:11.639
it a little bit easier. Yeah. Well, that's good

00:38:11.639 --> 00:38:13.159
to hear, because I haven't heard about the trip.

00:38:13.289 --> 00:38:15.869
So this, this is the whole point. This is the

00:38:15.869 --> 00:38:17.630
whole point. I haven't had time to talk to her

00:38:17.630 --> 00:38:20.590
and tell her about that yet. Here's the thing.

00:38:22.789 --> 00:38:26.070
We didn't, we could have skipped this week, right?

00:38:26.130 --> 00:38:29.010
We did that when I came back from my trip because

00:38:29.010 --> 00:38:31.789
we miscalculated how many we needed to prerecord.

00:38:32.130 --> 00:38:34.590
Whoops. But that's okay because you know, life

00:38:34.590 --> 00:38:39.389
happens and I think you're slowly getting better

00:38:39.389 --> 00:38:41.909
at that when it comes to certain things. I, in

00:38:41.909 --> 00:38:45.039
terms of stuff that I set for myself goal -wise

00:38:45.039 --> 00:38:47.800
like this and doing it every week. I'm slowly

00:38:47.800 --> 00:38:50.300
getting better with letting go of that restraint

00:38:50.300 --> 00:38:52.719
for that like control of it. So like I was okay

00:38:52.719 --> 00:38:55.739
with that. This week, I didn't want to fake it.

00:38:55.739 --> 00:38:57.659
I didn't want to be like, we've been researching

00:38:57.659 --> 00:39:00.260
for a couple of days and I told this to her last

00:39:00.260 --> 00:39:02.119
night. Not that we do that, but like that's what

00:39:02.119 --> 00:39:05.860
it would have been like. Yeah, no. So sometimes

00:39:05.860 --> 00:39:14.800
you just need a moment or 40 to... to just talk

00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:17.059
and we just happen to be doing it with microphones

00:39:17.059 --> 00:39:20.659
and making a thing of it. We don't ever talk

00:39:20.659 --> 00:39:23.739
without cameras and microphones. So I mean, yes,

00:39:23.940 --> 00:39:26.500
she's going to get up off this couch and go run

00:39:26.500 --> 00:39:28.539
errands and I'm going to go to a client and like

00:39:28.539 --> 00:39:30.460
life goes back to it. Like we're not going to

00:39:30.460 --> 00:39:32.539
consider continue just sit and chat. Oh, no,

00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:35.920
I don't. Ain't nobody got time for that. Literally.

00:39:36.519 --> 00:39:40.269
Yeah. I have a Star Wars communion to plan. I

00:39:40.269 --> 00:39:45.469
have a Star Wars cake to make. No, really, I

00:39:45.469 --> 00:39:47.469
have to start to actually have to plan this party.

00:39:47.909 --> 00:39:49.590
But yeah, so that was the point of today. That

00:39:49.590 --> 00:39:52.449
was the point. I hope it was somewhat entertaining.

00:39:53.610 --> 00:39:55.389
There's nothing you needed to get out of this

00:39:55.389 --> 00:39:57.429
other than listening to other people's problems.

00:39:57.510 --> 00:39:59.869
Yeah. You just learned a lot about our family

00:39:59.869 --> 00:40:02.909
and our business and the fact that it's not all

00:40:02.909 --> 00:40:04.590
sunshine and rainbows all the time, which you

00:40:04.590 --> 00:40:08.780
already knew. Yeah. Yeah. And I think it's important,

00:40:08.800 --> 00:40:16.219
I think this is something as a real tip. I hate

00:40:16.219 --> 00:40:20.719
when you put me on the spot like this. You talk,

00:40:20.840 --> 00:40:22.199
I'm not gonna listen, I'm just gonna be thinking.

00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:27.099
Okay, as a real tip, set a time out. Don't just

00:40:27.099 --> 00:40:28.579
be like, you know what, I'm gonna do this too

00:40:28.579 --> 00:40:31.360
with my people, my person, whatever. Actually

00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:36.190
schedule in, hey, do you have a 20 minute? free

00:40:36.190 --> 00:40:39.750
time to have a phone call or 20 minutes to come

00:40:39.750 --> 00:40:42.949
over on the weekend Let's just chat. Let's just

00:40:42.949 --> 00:40:47.210
chat grab coffee. I have water because because

00:40:47.210 --> 00:40:52.789
and or wine and Just chat just chat about like

00:40:52.789 --> 00:40:56.010
whatever Happened the during the week or chat

00:40:56.010 --> 00:40:57.670
about something like oh my god. We never got

00:40:57.670 --> 00:40:59.210
to talk about this can we talk about this right

00:40:59.210 --> 00:41:03.030
now and Then and then keep it short basically

00:41:03.559 --> 00:41:06.159
Keep it shorter than what we did because we were

00:41:06.159 --> 00:41:07.780
gonna do this for a half hour 30 minutes We were

00:41:07.780 --> 00:41:11.760
gonna have a 30 minute talk 42 But I think it's

00:41:11.760 --> 00:41:13.260
important. I think it's a mental health thing.

00:41:13.260 --> 00:41:18.519
I think it it relieves a lot of Pent up whatever

00:41:18.519 --> 00:41:21.579
and the serotonin levels of just you know, not

00:41:21.579 --> 00:41:24.559
really having to stress and work hard I would

00:41:24.559 --> 00:41:27.039
have stressed about doing anything. I know I

00:41:27.039 --> 00:41:30.000
know and I just think that's it's mandatory.

00:41:30.099 --> 00:41:33.119
I think it's mandatory And now, for your real

00:41:33.119 --> 00:41:38.480

00:41:39.500 --> 00:41:42.659
