00:00:40.320All day.
00:00:40.640 -->
00:00:42.399The power twos.
00:00:42.880 -->
00:00:44.159I don't know about that.
00:00:45.600 -->
00:00:46.799I'm not a tool.
00:00:47.119 -->
00:00:48.000I said twos.
00:00:48.799 -->
00:00:50.399I almost thought you said a tool.
00:00:50.960 -->
00:00:52.960You said power, a power tool.
00:00:53.119 -->
00:00:54.000I thought that's what you said.
00:00:54.320 -->
00:00:55.039I can see how you probably.
00:00:55.280 -->
00:00:56.399I thought you were trying to be fun.
00:00:56.719 -->
00:00:57.359It's all good.
00:00:57.600 -->
00:00:58.000Oh well.
00:00:58.719 -->
00:00:59.280It's all good.
00:00:59.679 -->
00:01:00.320Power twos.
00:01:00.560 -->
00:01:01.759Why are the power twos?
00:01:02.719 -->
00:01:05.439Because we're like two people.
00:01:05.760 -->
00:01:06.319Oh, yeah.
00:01:06.719 -->
00:01:07.120We are.
00:01:08.400 -->
00:01:09.519Favorite numbers, too.
00:01:09.760 -->
00:01:10.239Yeah.
00:01:11.920 -->
00:01:12.560Never mind.
00:01:12.719 -->
00:01:14.319Sorry, ladies and gentlemen.
00:01:14.560 -->
00:01:24.480Um, what you can do is probably like go back to one of our other episodes, play that as the intro, then get to this episode, fast forward, and then get to this part right here.
00:01:24.719 -->
00:01:25.280Anywho.
00:01:25.680 -->
00:01:26.480So here we are.
00:01:26.560 -->
00:01:27.439We're back.
00:01:28.239 -->
00:01:29.599So how was your week?
00:01:29.840 -->
00:01:31.200Uh let's see.
00:01:31.439 -->
00:01:33.359It was, well, I've been at work.
00:01:33.599 -->
00:01:35.920This was your first week back.
00:01:36.480 -->
00:01:39.519But for me, I've been working.
00:01:39.840 -->
00:01:46.400And so this week was um, I got to do a training.
00:01:46.640 -->
00:01:46.959Okay.
00:01:47.760 -->
00:01:49.120For the PE teachers.
00:01:49.599 -->
00:01:50.959That's right, that's right, that's right.
00:01:51.359 -->
00:01:54.879Thrive, not just surviving.
00:01:55.760 -->
00:01:56.560Say it again.
00:01:56.879 -->
00:01:59.760Thrive, not just survive.
00:02:00.159 -->
00:02:00.799That's right.
00:02:01.200 -->
00:02:08.479So um, really about burnout for educators, but I did it for the PE health teachers.
00:02:08.719 -->
00:02:11.520Because we burn out fast.
00:02:12.000 -->
00:02:20.080Um it's funny that oftentimes people think that like PE and health have the easy cushion jobs.
00:02:20.240 -->
00:02:23.919Um, but if you think about it, their work is just different.
00:02:24.080 -->
00:02:24.479Yeah.
00:02:24.719 -->
00:02:33.439Um, so especially in high school, because they're coaching, um, because in order to be in that role in many schools, you have to coach.
00:02:33.840 -->
00:02:40.639So it doesn't, it's just not the school day, it's the weekends, it's the after-school hours practices.
00:02:40.800 -->
00:02:42.000So it is a little different.
00:02:42.159 -->
00:02:50.960And then oftentimes because some people think that you aren't doing as much as other teachers, that they also give you a little bit.
00:02:51.280 -->
00:02:52.479Yeah, they don't, that's what I mean.
00:02:52.560 -->
00:02:54.800They don't think that you are because the work is just different.
00:02:55.120 -->
00:02:58.639That they, you know, feel like you they should give you more.
00:02:58.960 -->
00:03:04.080Um, and so um, all especially in elementary, that happens a lot.
00:03:04.400 -->
00:03:15.759Um, and so it was um just important for them to feel like people get what you do, and that, you know, people do understand that you don't have the cushion job.
00:03:15.840 -->
00:03:17.360There are lots that are on your plate.
00:03:17.439 -->
00:03:24.800And it wasn't just about them working, it was actually also about the balance, the balance of home and work.
00:03:25.039 -->
00:03:27.439Because for some people, work is an escape.
00:03:28.159 -->
00:03:29.759Yeah, homework itself.
00:03:30.159 -->
00:03:33.759Yeah, yeah, they needed that because I mean it was a great training.
00:03:34.000 -->
00:03:35.520Yeah, so anywho, I did that.
00:03:35.840 -->
00:03:36.719Great, great, great, great.
00:03:36.879 -->
00:03:39.199I was, yo, I was so proud of her.
00:03:39.840 -->
00:03:46.960I'm like, I was, I was this look, I was sitting over there on the side, and I kept saying, Oh my god, I'm so proud of that.
00:03:47.520 -->
00:03:48.800Oh my gosh, I forgot to tell you this.
00:03:48.879 -->
00:03:56.960So somebody got a picture of you, and they says, Kree, we have a picture, and we somebody took a picture of Kefla and he's just like looking at you.
00:03:57.840 -->
00:04:00.800Like, like he's just so proud.
00:04:01.599 -->
00:04:02.240I was, man.
00:04:02.560 -->
00:04:03.759Somebody has a picture of that.
00:04:04.000 -->
00:04:04.319Who hasn't?
00:04:04.560 -->
00:04:04.800I don't know.
00:04:05.039 -->
00:04:06.800You were one of the people that came in and took it because it was.
00:04:07.120 -->
00:04:07.599I think so.
00:04:07.759 -->
00:04:08.719Because Sarah saw it.
00:04:08.879 -->
00:04:13.520She goes, Oh my gosh, Kree, there's a picture of Key in your Kefla in your training.
00:04:13.840 -->
00:04:17.920And he's just we need that picture so I gotta ask her where that picture is, but we need a post.
00:04:18.079 -->
00:04:20.959But I'm telling you, man, y'all, she did her big.
00:04:21.199 -->
00:04:28.959I already know my wife is good, but to see her, I've and I've been in other trainings she's done.
00:04:29.279 -->
00:04:30.560But it was just this one.
00:04:30.800 -->
00:04:31.920I've gotten better.
00:04:32.160 -->
00:04:37.439Yeah, oh much because the last training was when your girl was there, and it's been a year since she's been gone.
00:04:37.600 -->
00:04:43.439It was like two, and it was a year prior, yeah, you know, that we had so almost three.
00:04:43.519 -->
00:04:43.759Yeah.
00:04:43.920 -->
00:04:45.600When that with that session.
00:04:45.839 -->
00:04:49.519And um, I mean, it was just you were so comfortable.
00:04:49.839 -->
00:04:54.720And and this one was this was your bag.
00:04:55.199 -->
00:04:57.279Like this one right here was your bag.
00:04:57.439 -->
00:04:58.480That's what I do necessarily.
00:04:58.639 -->
00:04:58.879Yes.
00:04:59.040 -->
00:04:59.839That kind of bag.
00:05:00.160 -->
00:05:05.759Yes, like this is this is who you are without the badge.
00:05:06.000 -->
00:05:07.360I don't know, but you know what?
00:05:07.439 -->
00:05:27.360I feel like maybe I'm just kind of getting comfortable in that because when I did New Teacher Academy and I was doing um uh behavior, like things for them to think about as they start the school year, like thinking about behavior toolkit.
00:05:27.519 -->
00:05:28.879There was a lady that came up to me.
00:05:28.959 -->
00:05:30.720She said, I just had to say this before I leave.
00:05:30.879 -->
00:05:38.639She goes, When you uh when we walked in and we knew that you were presenting, we looked at that we our whole table was like, She looks like wellness.
00:05:39.279 -->
00:05:41.680And so, yeah, and so I don't know.
00:05:41.759 -->
00:05:44.399So maybe it's just kind of No, I don't know.
00:05:44.720 -->
00:05:50.800This, like Tim, what you were saying, this is you without you know what I mean?
00:05:51.360 -->
00:05:57.839Because one, um, even the man said, Oh, you sound like a coach's wife because you lived it.
00:05:58.399 -->
00:05:58.560Yeah.
00:05:59.519 -->
00:06:09.680And this is something that you discuss, you know, we always discuss, you know, throughout our whole marriage because we grinded.
00:06:09.759 -->
00:06:16.879You know, I was coaching elementary PE in when we met, you know, in I mean elementary sports, you know, in Dallas.
00:06:17.040 -->
00:06:21.279And uh, even though I didn't coach in California, I was doing the after school activities.
00:06:21.680 -->
00:06:25.040So we always discuss the balance.
00:06:25.279 -->
00:06:31.759And so you can tell that you when I'm saying, you know, some people say, oh, I'm good at it now, I've gotten good because I've spoken.
00:06:32.079 -->
00:06:33.360No, you've lived it.
00:06:33.439 -->
00:06:33.759Yeah.
00:06:33.920 -->
00:06:38.399So everything that somebody, any question they can ask, you already know.
00:06:38.560 -->
00:06:41.680You can go back to chapter two of your life, chapter three of your life.
00:06:41.920 -->
00:06:43.199You've experienced that.
00:06:43.360 -->
00:06:46.560And so it and and you lived it and you embraced it.
00:06:46.800 -->
00:06:54.879And even if the experience wasn't great at the time, it worked out to be great based off of you know who we are.
00:06:55.279 -->
00:06:59.360And so it gave them, when I tell those ladies, like hell, you know, hope, hope.
00:06:59.439 -->
00:06:59.680Yeah.
00:06:59.839 -->
00:07:00.560You know what I mean?
00:07:00.639 -->
00:07:02.879Like they was really feeling good.
00:07:03.279 -->
00:07:03.600Yeah.
00:07:03.839 -->
00:07:04.639Like this was you.
00:07:04.720 -->
00:07:06.480I just I'm just saying, I'm sorry, y'all.
00:07:06.639 -->
00:07:11.839I'm so sorry, but I'm telling you, I was so proud.
00:07:12.399 -->
00:07:13.199I am so proud.
00:07:13.360 -->
00:07:14.079Well, thank you.
00:07:14.319 -->
00:07:15.279So amazing.
00:07:15.439 -->
00:07:17.439And I also really believe in the things that I say.
00:07:17.519 -->
00:07:18.639That's like very important to me.
00:07:18.720 -->
00:07:24.000What when I present things, it's like I'm gonna put only the things that I believe in.
00:07:24.240 -->
00:07:32.079And even although I have to turn it into the powers that be, and they have to say, you know, what they but I fight for what I really believe in.
00:07:32.240 -->
00:07:32.800They know that.
00:07:32.879 -->
00:07:38.959And we kind of, you know, I'm I'm okay with saying this is why I need this here or whatever that may be.
00:07:39.120 -->
00:07:41.040But I really do believe in those things.
00:07:41.199 -->
00:08:18.160And then it just, even for that, it kind of was like confirmation in regards to like what our plan is, and to re in regards to opening up like our own wellness and counseling together, because I do think that because of how we've done and things that we've been through, and how we've been able to maneuver and talk through and in our own marriage, how powerful we will be for to help other people in theirs through couples therapy and all of the things.
00:08:18.319 -->
00:08:31.279So to me, that also kind of showed that part because there were men receiving this information, and they didn't receive it in a way that made them feel like, oh man, I'm a sorry husband, or I'm not doing enough.
00:08:31.439 -->
00:08:36.000They were able to receive it with, okay, I well, wait a minute.
00:08:36.080 -->
00:08:47.039I because my goal, and I don't know, you can tell me, but my goal was not for them to leave, like feeling like I gotta quit coaching, and I just gotta go and do the things my wife needs me to do.
00:08:47.120 -->
00:09:03.039But my thing was for them to understand that what you're doing, you're not doing anything wrong, but here's a little tweak you can do that can still allow you to do the thing that you have to do, but then be able to um take care of home as well.
00:09:03.120 -->
00:09:04.879So that was my goal was to not make it.
00:09:05.039 -->
00:09:14.879No, you did that, you you did that in in a and above because my not a goal, but my prayer was that they didn't leave there talking about she don't know nothing about coaching.
00:09:14.960 -->
00:09:25.679She, you know, talking against coaching, you know, but instead it was the people that came knew that you understood home and living.
00:09:26.720 -->
00:09:32.240And they know coaching is, you know, it's it could be long and tedious and all that stuff.
00:09:32.559 -->
00:09:37.679But it's uh there's so many of them that get bashed for coaching.
00:09:38.320 -->
00:09:41.039You know, even parents, like we got to practice again this week.
00:09:41.440 -->
00:09:44.320And I understand because everybody's practiced, so you have to be competitive.
00:09:44.480 -->
00:09:44.639Yeah.
00:09:44.799 -->
00:09:47.039You know, you have to do what everybody's doing.
00:09:47.519 -->
00:09:56.320But when people left not feeling attacked by you, you know, that's how coaches are.
00:09:56.399 -->
00:09:57.759We're you know, we're guarded.
00:09:58.320 -->
00:10:01.679And and nobody felt attacked, they felt they felt understood.
00:10:01.840 -->
00:10:02.480That's what it was.
00:10:02.559 -->
00:10:03.840It was they felt understood.
00:10:04.000 -->
00:10:19.279And then you gave them tools for their understanding to help them be able to even you know, coach longer, coach in peace, but you know, also parent in peace and father in peace and husband in peace and all that kind of stuff.
00:10:19.440 -->
00:10:22.799And that was my prayer that was answered.
00:10:22.960 -->
00:10:28.320And so I think both of our your goal and our prayers were answered, and it was phenomenal.
00:10:28.559 -->
00:10:29.360Yeah, thank you.
00:10:29.440 -->
00:10:49.440So that's really what I wanted to be able to do in that, um, and for everybody just to kind of leave feeling lighter and leaving at least with one thing, if not more, but at least one thing that they could go and do that would lighten their load um a little bit.
00:10:49.519 -->
00:10:54.639Because I think just a little lightening gives you an opportunity to breathe and feel better.
00:10:54.799 -->
00:10:56.080So that was my whole goal.
00:10:56.559 -->
00:10:57.120One more thing.
00:10:57.279 -->
00:11:03.360You know how, you know how people say, Oh, keep pushing your husband, you know, to the do the TV and oh he's a great coach.
00:11:04.639 -->
00:11:05.519I love your wife.
00:11:05.600 -->
00:11:06.559That's all I kept hearing.
00:11:06.720 -->
00:11:08.000I love your wife, coach.
00:11:08.080 -->
00:11:08.879I love your wife.
00:11:09.039 -->
00:11:12.639Your wife is so, oh, she came to I didn't know that was your wife.
00:11:12.799 -->
00:11:13.519I love your wife.
00:11:13.679 -->
00:11:14.720She's been coming to our school.
00:11:14.799 -->
00:11:15.600That's why I've been here.
00:11:16.159 -->
00:11:18.000And so I was like, Yeah, that's my wife.
00:11:18.159 -->
00:11:18.799Oh, God.
00:11:20.320 -->
00:11:27.360I mean, it's just you know and that and part of who I am is like, I um I cannot not be myself.
00:11:27.519 -->
00:11:31.679I think I spent too long trying to be who I felt like other people wanted me to be.
00:11:31.759 -->
00:11:34.240And so it feels good to be like me.
00:11:34.960 -->
00:11:37.360And so that's all I can be.
00:11:37.440 -->
00:11:39.840And luckily, I mean you could be a lot of other things.
00:11:40.000 -->
00:11:40.639I could be a lot of things.
00:11:40.720 -->
00:11:41.679We roleplay now.
00:11:41.840 -->
00:11:43.840We'll practice, we'll practice the role play.
00:11:44.000 -->
00:11:47.600But I'm so thankful that I now have like a supervisor who gets it.
00:11:47.840 -->
00:11:51.759Allows you to be um and because we're both there.
00:11:52.159 -->
00:11:57.200Yeah, who gets it because then that's where the impact happened.
00:11:57.440 -->
00:11:57.759Shine.
00:11:58.080 -->
00:12:00.720Even for our department, that's how we grow.
00:12:00.960 -->
00:12:03.919But my whole goal is about helping people.
00:12:04.159 -->
00:12:10.080And so um, it's not about me, it's not about me being up there and it's all about me up there presenting.
00:12:10.240 -->
00:12:11.120That's not it.
00:12:11.440 -->
00:12:12.559I don't care about that.
00:12:12.720 -->
00:12:22.080But what I care about is helping people be just better people, better educators, um, um, better moms.
00:12:22.240 -->
00:12:29.200Because the things I do are not just for them to use with students, it's really things they can take home and do with their family too.
00:12:29.360 -->
00:12:35.840So, overall, just how to make people better people is um what I'm striving to do.
00:12:36.000 -->
00:12:40.159So I didn't notice like session surveys.
00:12:40.480 -->
00:12:42.960There were it's it was at the very end.
00:12:43.200 -->
00:12:43.440Yeah.
00:12:44.000 -->
00:12:47.200The last one, and the last one after which one did you attend?
00:12:47.600 -->
00:12:47.840Okay.
00:12:47.919 -->
00:12:51.919I thought I, you know, they used to do for us, they used to do session surveys.
00:12:52.159 -->
00:12:52.559They do.
00:12:52.720 -->
00:12:59.679But but for LEI and new teacher, NTA, they just do the final one.
00:13:00.240 -->
00:13:01.519But PE they've always done.
00:13:01.679 -->
00:13:02.000Yeah.
00:13:02.240 -->
00:13:05.679Because one thing they've always we've always had so many come in.
00:13:05.919 -->
00:13:11.039Maybe because it's been maybe with LEI that's different because now it's a part of LEI is like a whole system.
00:13:11.279 -->
00:13:12.639I'm saying the new LEI is different.
00:13:12.799 -->
00:13:13.360Yeah, that's what I mean.
00:13:13.600 -->
00:13:24.639I'm saying like like last year, uh LEI was was in uh per session because everything was like like your being you being there the whole time was uncommon.
00:13:24.799 -->
00:13:36.000Y'all would normally be there for two sessions because we had so many other people, like sponsors selling their items and all that kind of stuff, that they didn't wait till the last session, they try to get it right then and there, you know.
00:13:36.159 -->
00:13:38.240And plus they also know about PE what happened at the end.
00:13:38.559 -->
00:13:39.120Y'all leave.
00:13:39.919 -->
00:13:41.440Because they said, oh, we got football practices.
00:13:41.679 -->
00:13:42.399We'd pass another one.
00:13:42.559 -->
00:13:49.919And I was very proud of my like I had about the same amount every session that came.
00:13:50.000 -->
00:13:50.240Yeah.
00:13:50.399 -->
00:13:52.080So um that made me feel good.
00:13:52.159 -->
00:13:58.720Like the last one, I know I think Emily didn't have maybe one or two in her last one, but mine stayed consistently.
00:13:58.799 -->
00:14:02.080So I'm assuming somebody must have said, hey, go to whatever.
00:14:02.240 -->
00:14:08.559But, anyways, um, that really was the highlight um of my week.
00:14:09.039 -->
00:14:25.440Um, and then this was the first time I had to do an um end a session where my client felt like they got what they needed, they're ready to move on to the real world, one of my little middle schoolers.
00:14:25.600 -->
00:14:28.559And I was sad, but I was like, that's my job.
00:14:28.639 -->
00:14:32.000That means I did my job, and she's supposed to go on.
00:14:32.240 -->
00:14:37.519I gave her all the tools, and she feels good about what I gave her, and she feels like she's more.
00:14:37.679 -->
00:14:40.960She told me all things because I'm like, let me just make sure she's ready.
00:14:41.120 -->
00:14:42.000That's what I felt like.
00:14:42.159 -->
00:14:50.960So the questions I asked to make sure she's ready and all the things that she was, and at the end, because she's not one that doesn't, she's not a hugger.
00:14:51.679 -->
00:14:59.440And so at the end, she looked like she wanted to hug me, but then I was like, Well, she's gonna have to come in for it because I didn't want because she's not a hugger.
00:14:59.600 -->
00:15:04.720And then her her parents were there, and she didn't, you know, that whole situation.
00:15:04.799 -->
00:15:13.759And so she um, so I just gave her a high five, but she looked like she wanted to, but I was like, You'll have to come hug me because I can't come hug, you know, hug you.
00:15:13.840 -->
00:15:23.039But that was my very first one who has gone on her merry way, like went all the way through, and felt confident in being completely done.
00:15:23.200 -->
00:15:24.240And I was super sad.
00:15:24.320 -->
00:15:28.000I was like, oh my gosh, I got a good, I got a big caseload.
00:15:28.320 -->
00:15:30.240And I was like, is this how I'm gonna feel?
00:15:30.320 -->
00:15:34.480Every time they like, Miss Cree, I think I don't need if they successful, yeah.
00:15:34.639 -->
00:15:35.200I know.
00:15:35.840 -->
00:15:38.799That say, I don't need it, but you like, yeah, you need it, but you saying you're done.
00:15:39.279 -->
00:15:40.639If they successful, then yeah.
00:15:40.799 -->
00:15:41.440I can't say that.
00:15:41.519 -->
00:15:51.200But I think I yeah, but then some of them I'm gonna feel like if like maybe their parents say no, or maybe their parents don't won't bring them no more, because that kind of stuff could happen.
00:15:51.519 -->
00:15:53.279But y'all, I was a little sad.
00:15:53.519 -->
00:15:54.159That's how I go.
00:15:54.320 -->
00:16:08.960My um, the professor that uh that hooded me for my doctorate, he told us when our first residency, he said, if you do your job right as a consultant, because that's pretty much what we are, he said, um, you will always need a job.
00:16:09.600 -->
00:16:13.919He said, because you're gonna do so good by your clients that they won't need you.
00:16:14.320 -->
00:16:17.200You're gonna, you know, get your clients, you're gonna build them up.
00:16:17.279 -->
00:16:17.360Yeah.
00:16:17.679 -->
00:16:18.559Because that's your job.
00:16:18.720 -->
00:16:22.879Your job is to build them like kind of like parents, where you build them up where they can fly on their own.
00:16:23.039 -->
00:16:23.200Yeah.
00:16:23.440 -->
00:16:29.679He said, You he said, you're always gonna be needing a client because you're gonna get rid of one positively.
00:16:29.919 -->
00:16:30.159Yeah.
00:16:30.240 -->
00:16:32.000And so that's what I'm noticing.
00:16:32.159 -->
00:16:36.799My ones I started with in February, January, in January.
00:16:37.200 -->
00:16:40.879So some of those, they are you they are on it.
00:16:41.039 -->
00:16:42.399They're using the skills.
00:16:42.559 -->
00:16:50.000And so some of them I've moved from once a week to bi-weekly, and so I see them gradually doing the thing.
00:16:50.080 -->
00:16:52.879So I was like, oh man, I'm gonna miss them.
00:16:53.200 -->
00:16:55.279Because a lot of them I still enjoy them.
00:16:55.519 -->
00:16:56.639So, yeah.
00:16:57.039 -->
00:17:04.240The cool thing though with therapy is if I don't know how insurance does it, but I know when parents can't afford it, it's out of pocket.
00:17:04.480 -->
00:17:11.279You know, like anybody, they they just go to their therapist, you know, at least once a month or twice a month, you know.
00:17:11.359 -->
00:17:16.160But I'm no, I know that adults try to go once a month as a maintenance.
00:17:16.559 -->
00:17:16.799Yep.
00:17:17.039 -->
00:17:22.720Let me let me unload and then tell me where I'm probably slipping or where I'm not.
00:17:23.200 -->
00:17:34.319Well, I told her and her parents, you know, like if at any point you know that she's welcome, you know, if you need to come back for like a little maintenance, more than welcome to come back.
00:17:34.480 -->
00:17:35.279I will be here.
00:17:35.440 -->
00:17:36.880Y'all just call me.
00:17:37.119 -->
00:17:44.799Um, but yeah, so I was like, I got a couple more that I feel like they are there, but I'm proud.
00:17:45.759 -->
00:17:47.680But sad.
00:17:48.319 -->
00:17:51.279You're proud to be a therapist.
00:17:53.440 -->
00:17:54.400You're a creed.
00:17:54.960 -->
00:17:56.480So that's my week.
00:17:56.640 -->
00:17:57.440What's your week?
00:17:57.599 -->
00:18:00.720Well, my week started off going to my new school.
00:18:00.880 -->
00:18:01.359Yeah.
00:18:01.680 -->
00:18:04.640Um, you know, met the staff.
00:18:04.880 -->
00:18:08.400It was it was cool because it was, you know, we were in the cafeteria.
00:18:08.640 -->
00:18:10.880Most times we meet in a big theater, you know.
00:18:11.200 -->
00:18:11.440Oh, yeah.
00:18:11.759 -->
00:18:13.039Elementary cafeteria.
00:18:13.279 -->
00:18:15.519We in the in their cafeteria, old and small.
00:18:15.680 -->
00:18:15.920Yeah.
00:18:16.240 -->
00:18:19.519Little bit of cafeteria, delicious goodies.
00:18:19.680 -->
00:18:24.079Then they said our names and stuff, and y'all would have thought I've been there for a couple years.
00:18:24.240 -->
00:18:25.680Well, how did they introduce you?
00:18:25.920 -->
00:18:31.839Well, she they they had a slideshow and they said we have some new um staff.
00:18:32.480 -->
00:18:36.160And so she clicked on it and said, This person was actually here before.
00:18:36.319 -->
00:18:37.440She's back, yo, right.
00:18:37.680 -->
00:18:39.200Yeah, we're so happy to have her.
00:18:39.359 -->
00:18:47.759You know, she went from fifth grade to this grade now, and so and then they click on another person, and then we have, you know, such and such, who's gonna be the new whatever.
00:18:48.000 -->
00:18:54.240And then said, and so, you know, we had to fill our PE style, and so we filled it with, you know, Dr.
00:18:54.400 -->
00:18:55.119Hare, Dr.
00:18:55.200 -->
00:18:56.160Keith La Hare.
00:18:56.240 -->
00:18:59.839And then, you're like, surprise me.
00:19:00.000 -->
00:19:02.000So I was like, sitting down in the back.
00:19:02.240 -->
00:19:04.720I couldn't stand up because we're sitting in the little at the table.
00:19:04.799 -->
00:19:04.880Yeah.
00:19:05.039 -->
00:19:06.160And once you get in, you're done.
00:19:06.240 -->
00:19:06.400Yeah.

00:19:16.720 -->
00:19:17.839So that made me feel good.
00:19:18.000 -->
00:19:18.160Yeah.
00:19:18.400 -->
00:19:23.279You know, because um, you know, every it's you think about it for what, 12 years, I had a normal routine.
00:19:23.359 -->
00:19:23.519Yeah.
00:19:23.680 -->
00:19:28.960I had a normal route and normal people, normal everything, normal hate, knowing everybody.
00:19:29.519 -->
00:19:31.599And so now I don't know anybody's name.
00:19:32.079 -->
00:19:34.240Well, a few, but you know, but Oh, yeah.
00:19:34.319 -->
00:19:35.759And it's a lot of that.

00:19:58.880Yeah.
00:19:58.960 -->
00:19:59.920That was last year's video.
00:20:00.079 -->
00:20:02.000Oh, well then I guess I didn't pay attention last year.
00:20:02.319 -->
00:20:02.880That was last year's video.
00:20:03.279 -->
00:20:03.680Wait, wait, wait.
00:20:03.759 -->
00:20:04.000You know what?
00:20:04.240 -->
00:20:04.720Take that back.
00:20:04.799 -->
00:20:05.359No, it was.
00:20:06.960 -->
00:20:08.400He got on Jordan's, the guy that came in the case.
00:20:08.559 -->
00:20:08.799Oh, okay.
00:20:08.880 -->
00:20:08.960Okay.
00:20:09.200 -->
00:20:10.559Yeah, that was the first year last year.
00:20:10.720 -->
00:20:10.960Okay.
00:20:11.200 -->
00:20:16.160But they still had the like when they talked about at the end, that was the clips from the previous.
00:20:16.640 -->
00:20:16.960Uh-huh.
00:20:17.039 -->
00:20:17.279Yeah.
00:20:17.440 -->
00:20:19.279Um, but yeah, it's yeah.
00:20:19.680 -->
00:20:22.559I didn't like it, but so last year I completely liked probably.
00:20:23.039 -->
00:20:23.920Yeah, a lot of people didn't like it.
00:20:24.079 -->
00:20:24.160Okay.
00:20:24.400 -->
00:20:25.839And so, but then that was it.
00:20:25.920 -->
00:20:29.440And then we did the um, we did a bathroom break.
00:20:29.519 -->
00:20:29.920Mm-hmm.
00:20:30.240 -->
00:20:33.119Well, they talked about, you know, our fire drills, where we go, and all that stuff.
00:20:33.279 -->
00:20:36.960Then we did a bathroom break, and then we did the county um video.
00:20:37.680 -->
00:20:40.160And so after that, she was like, That's it.
00:20:40.319 -->
00:20:48.559I was like, 'Cause you know, high school we all right, uh PE or special ed, y'all go with science and you're going to talk about this.
00:20:48.880 -->
00:20:52.400And um, then you go to this principal, talk about this, you go to this lead teacher.
00:20:52.640 -->
00:20:54.079All day it's like meetings.
00:20:54.240 -->
00:20:54.720Yeah, something.
00:20:55.519 -->
00:20:58.559So the um teachers are mad because they don't have time to work in their rooms.
00:20:58.720 -->
00:20:59.759And they was like, this is it.
00:20:59.839 -->
00:21:13.359So I was like, This is the gym and I was like, I I don't really need to get the gym together because I don't like putting stuff on the wall because it falls down all the time when they hit it with a ball.
00:21:13.440 -->
00:21:13.680Yeah.
00:21:13.839 -->
00:21:15.200Even like your rules, you know.
00:21:15.279 -->
00:21:18.079I like to put them up on the screen like as the kids come in.
00:21:18.160 -->
00:21:18.400Uh-huh.
00:21:18.559 -->
00:21:22.240And we, you know, reiterate the rules all the time as they're walking around and doing all that stuff.
00:21:22.480 -->
00:21:24.240So they don't read them when they're up on the wall anyway.
00:21:24.559 -->
00:21:25.519I mean, to be honest, they don't.
00:21:25.599 -->
00:21:26.000Yeah, I don't know.
00:21:26.160 -->
00:21:28.720But you can refer back to them, but trust me.
00:21:29.039 -->
00:21:29.279I know.
00:21:29.440 -->
00:21:32.160It's just it's for for when people come in.
00:21:32.240 -->
00:21:32.319Yeah.
00:21:32.559 -->
00:21:35.440The wigs, big wigs, they'd be like, Where's oh, I see it's rules.
00:21:35.839 -->
00:21:42.319And that's why you shouldn't have as many, because you really could before you started your class, say, okay, what of our three rules here and PE?
00:21:42.400 -->
00:21:42.480Yeah.
00:21:42.640 -->
00:21:45.839And they say, da da da, ta da da, and ta da ta.
00:21:46.079 -->
00:21:46.319That's it.
00:21:46.559 -->
00:21:48.720And then you keep it moving, and then you keep it going.
00:21:48.799 -->
00:21:51.519So then it's we've we met we've talked about the expectations.
00:21:51.599 -->
00:21:52.640Now let's get to the activity.
00:21:53.200 -->
00:21:55.839And so, and you know, and so I was like, There's really nothing.
00:21:55.920 -->
00:21:59.759So um I just chilled in there and I had some.
00:22:00.319 -->
00:22:04.240Worked, you know, I had to get my work done so that for the end of the semester.
00:22:05.039 -->
00:22:06.400So I got that done.
00:22:06.960 -->
00:22:12.240You know, finished client notes, you know, uh prepared stuff for my sessions I had this week.
00:22:13.039 -->
00:22:18.960And Thursday, it was a lot of people came to the meet and greet.
00:22:19.119 -->
00:22:21.759Um, you know, kids excited.
00:22:21.839 -->
00:22:24.880Every parent said, My, oh, that's my athlete.
00:22:25.039 -->
00:22:26.559That's my athlete, he's the athlete right there.
00:22:26.640 -->
00:22:28.079Oh, he's good, he good.
00:22:28.319 -->
00:22:30.480And, you know, maybe two of them were good.
00:22:32.000 -->
00:22:32.799We gotta work on them.
00:22:33.279 -->
00:22:34.319Gotta get them right.
00:22:34.559 -->
00:22:36.880So come on, little fellas and little ladies.
00:22:36.960 -->
00:22:37.680We gotta get them right.
00:22:37.759 -->
00:22:39.039But it was some sweet kids.
00:22:39.519 -->
00:22:44.799Some very I like, I mean, I know all of them are not gonna be sweet, but we're gonna get them all right.
00:22:44.880 -->
00:22:45.599They're active.
00:22:45.839 -->
00:22:47.119More good days than bad days.
00:22:47.200 -->
00:22:47.759That's right.
00:22:47.920 -->
00:22:48.240Exactly.
00:22:48.319 -->
00:22:52.319But that's you, I would be scared if everybody behaved exactly the same.
00:22:52.559 -->
00:22:57.119I don't even understand why people think that, think that for kids.
00:22:57.279 -->
00:22:59.680Because do you as an adult behave every day?
00:23:00.400 -->
00:23:01.279Uh no.
00:23:01.759 -->
00:23:02.319You don't.
00:23:02.799 -->
00:23:03.759So we don't.
00:23:04.160 -->
00:23:06.240We don't all behave every single day.
00:23:06.400 -->
00:23:14.559There are moments where we make a mistake or say something we shouldn't have said, or whatever that may be, speeding down the highway.
00:23:14.720 -->
00:23:14.960Whatever.
00:23:15.039 -->
00:23:16.960We all it's something.
00:23:17.200 -->
00:23:19.599But what I do like is that everybody loves PE.
00:23:19.920 -->
00:23:20.079No.
00:23:20.400 -->
00:23:21.119You know what I'm saying?
00:23:21.200 -->
00:23:23.279So the culture there for P is great.
00:23:23.519 -->
00:23:23.839That's right.
00:23:23.920 -->
00:23:25.119And and I'm I'm excited.
00:23:25.200 -->
00:23:29.119The principal's giving me, you know, the the the blessing.
00:23:29.440 -->
00:23:31.920Like they, you know, she's like, oh, you're gonna be great.
00:23:32.000 -->
00:23:33.039Oh, we're so excited for it.
00:23:33.200 -->
00:23:38.799And just that right there, you know, is just makes me feel like that.
00:23:38.960 -->
00:23:41.680Well, yeah, I really love your principal.
00:23:41.759 -->
00:23:45.359I mean, from the moment I met her, I would just felt like she's a good person.
00:23:45.680 -->
00:23:45.839Yeah.
00:23:46.000 -->
00:23:50.400This the staff in general, everybody's just, I think we're gonna have an amazing school year.
00:23:50.480 -->
00:23:51.359I can't wait to hear.
00:23:51.599 -->
00:23:54.559Yeah, I can't, I can't wait to, because I just, it's so much I want to do.
00:23:54.640 -->
00:23:54.960Yeah.

00:23:58.079 -->
00:23:58.319Cool.
00:23:58.480 -->
00:24:00.559And then what did we do today?
00:24:01.039 -->
00:24:04.160Oh, oh gosh, I'm gonna forget the name.

00:24:05.680Do you remember the name?
00:24:06.160 -->
00:24:07.039Well, it's on my phone.

00:24:07.920You told me.
00:24:08.319 -->
00:24:08.960I did.
00:24:09.599 -->
00:24:10.160Um, okay.
00:24:10.319 -->
00:24:10.880Okay, we went to the show.
00:24:11.119 -->
00:24:12.240Don't even say like who first.
00:24:12.480 -->
00:24:14.480We gotta say the name, and then you can say.
00:24:14.720 -->
00:24:15.359All right, hit that.
00:24:15.440 -->
00:24:16.240Welcome back.
00:24:17.200 -->
00:24:18.400Welcome back, everybody.
00:24:18.559 -->
00:24:19.200We're so sorry.
00:24:19.279 -->
00:24:20.559We had technical difficulties.
00:24:20.640 -->
00:24:24.160I've been trying to do something different with the camera.
00:24:24.720 -->
00:24:27.839Instead, um, it's not staying on.
00:24:27.920 -->
00:24:33.440I don't know, maybe it's overheating or something, but we had to flip back to the iPhone.
00:24:34.079 -->
00:24:35.279So here we are.
00:24:35.519 -->
00:24:36.160All right.
00:24:36.559 -->
00:24:37.680In our glory.
00:24:37.920 -->
00:24:41.279Anyways, we were going back what we did today.
00:24:42.240 -->
00:24:47.599Um, and so we went to the High Museum to see a special exhibit.
00:24:48.319 -->
00:24:53.359And we got to see the artist, Amy Sherrod.
00:24:53.839 -->
00:24:54.400You just heard it.
00:24:54.480 -->
00:24:54.799You told me.
00:24:55.119 -->
00:24:55.759I did.
00:24:57.039 -->
00:24:57.839Sherald.
00:24:58.880 -->
00:24:59.599Sherrod.
00:25:01.359 -->
00:25:02.240What did they say?
00:25:02.480 -->
00:25:06.720I'm gonna I'm gonna play it again because I don't want to say it wrong.
00:25:06.960 -->
00:25:07.920So hold on.
00:25:08.000 -->
00:25:08.960I'm gonna say it again.
00:25:09.359 -->
00:25:10.400How do you forget that?
00:25:10.640 -->
00:25:12.559You better say I'll be forgetting stuff.
00:25:12.720 -->
00:25:14.160Because I I second guessed myself.
00:25:14.319 -->
00:25:14.480Okay.
00:25:14.640 -->
00:25:15.680And Amy Sherald was so.
00:25:17.200 -->
00:25:18.559All right, so Amy Sherald.
00:25:19.039 -->
00:25:24.720Um, she was the artist that painted the Obama's portrait, but her art is just magnificent.
00:25:25.440 -->
00:25:28.480And so um Kimani loves art.
00:25:28.799 -->
00:25:44.240Um, he is a great artist himself, and so today um we did a little afternoon day at the High Museum um to see her work, and it was magnificent.
00:25:44.480 -->
00:25:45.359It's crazy.
00:25:45.519 -->
00:25:52.799Like it's she does, she does um live portraits first.
00:25:53.039 -->
00:25:59.680I mean, um like she does she foot she photographs people and she photographs them in their natural essence.
00:26:00.000 -->
00:26:04.799You know, sometimes she's uh inspired by just somebody walk and she'll say, Oh, can I photograph you?
00:26:05.200 -->
00:26:08.960And she'll, you know, invite them or whatever, you know, they do the studio deal.
00:26:10.079 -->
00:26:17.920And when I tell you, she captures exactly what that person is is is exuding.
00:26:18.160 -->
00:26:22.079Um and the way she paints was 3D.
00:26:22.319 -->
00:26:26.240Yeah, it looks like the paintings look 3D, although they weren't there on canvas.
00:26:26.480 -->
00:26:28.960It looks like when was Yeah, you can see the wind.
00:26:29.200 -->
00:26:35.680One of them had like the hands in their pocket, but even the the indention or whatever you want to say.
00:26:35.920 -->
00:26:36.559Yeah, from the pocket.
00:26:36.720 -->
00:26:39.200From the pocket, from the hand being the pocket, you could see that.
00:26:39.440 -->
00:26:43.680And even when I s when when after you showed that to me, I was standing back further.
00:26:43.839 -->
00:26:46.880And the further I got back, the more real it looked.
00:26:46.960 -->
00:26:53.359Because it started looking like it was shadowy, not just shadowy, like it was like you could see the hands through the pants.
00:26:53.519 -->
00:26:57.759Yeah, and like in the one with the girl on the bicycle.
00:26:57.920 -->
00:26:59.359So the dog that was in the thing.
00:26:59.680 -->
00:27:05.839You can see the dog's hair go back, and then the sunflowers like glowing in there.
00:27:06.319 -->
00:27:08.400Yeah, it's just she's a great artist.
00:27:08.960 -->
00:27:09.359Amazing.
00:27:09.599 -->
00:27:21.680But um, one of us, like she said, she started to do art realizing like we weren't like the real us was we weren't in art, like just who we are as people, everyday um people.
00:27:22.079 -->
00:27:37.519And what when she takes the pictures, what I thought was neat is that she keeps snapping shots until her eye gets the perfect shot that she wants to then take the photograph to create the painting.
00:27:38.000 -->
00:27:45.839And so, like she was showing the one that she put together with the two guys, and she she had the moother leg here.
00:27:46.000 -->
00:27:47.039Okay, no, let's go.
00:27:47.200 -->
00:27:49.920And she kept shifting the movement until finally when she saw what she was.
00:27:51.119 -->
00:27:51.920Yeah, yeah.
00:27:52.079 -->
00:27:56.160And so it it's just really cool how she does her art and everything.
00:27:56.240 -->
00:28:04.319But if you're in Atlanta, and I think her art is in other places, yeah, because she had a Brianna Taylor photographed beautiful.
00:28:04.559 -->
00:28:15.440Um, so she's in there in different art museums, however, the the Michelle Obama one, yeah, the that particular piece.
00:28:15.759 -->
00:28:17.279Is it the high museum?
00:28:17.599 -->
00:28:19.680Of course, it's not the best piece right now.
00:28:20.079 -->
00:28:23.039It's not gonna be there forever, but uh how long is it gonna be there?
00:28:23.200 -->
00:28:24.000I have no idea.
00:28:24.240 -->
00:28:31.279If you're in the Atlanta area or if you can get there within the next two weeks, if it's still there in the next two weeks, trust me, it's worth it.
00:28:31.359 -->
00:28:32.480Yeah, it's worth it.
00:28:32.720 -->
00:28:40.000Yeah, I didn't realize it was there until someone told me about it that is really into art, and I was like, we gotta get there.
00:28:40.079 -->
00:28:46.400So I know Keemani's gonna be moving to teach because we know we told y'all he's gonna be teaching in New Jersey.
00:28:46.480 -->
00:28:55.519So just trying to find things that he likes to do to enjoy him before he's gone doing his little thing in New Jersey.
00:28:55.680 -->
00:28:58.559So I felt like it was a great little day today.
00:28:58.799 -->
00:28:59.279It was.
00:28:59.440 -->
00:29:02.160Yeah, I was so enamored by her work.
00:29:02.720 -->
00:29:04.400It was oh my god.
00:29:04.880 -->
00:29:08.559Like like she says, you use she used gray for the faces.
00:29:08.799 -->
00:29:19.039Most people try to use the browns and you know, to you know, to match, but she uses the gray, and to me, yeah, that put more soul and and feeling in their faces.
00:29:19.279 -->
00:29:19.759It did.
00:29:20.079 -->
00:29:27.039It just it to me, just I don't know, like took the art up a notch because it wasn't really about the shade of brown.
00:29:27.680 -->
00:29:30.319It was more so looking at who they were as humans.
00:29:30.400 -->
00:29:30.799Yeah.
00:29:30.960 -->
00:29:36.319Like people, like we're not looking at the shade or or the race or whatever.
00:29:36.559 -->
00:29:37.920But who are these people?
00:29:38.559 -->
00:29:40.799I think it just kind of took that away.
00:29:41.039 -->
00:29:49.680Yeah, because everybody had color that popped amongst the skins and stuff and clothes that they normally and that oh, that was the other thing she said.
00:29:49.759 -->
00:29:54.640She would get uh designers, black designers, to create things just for that.
00:29:54.880 -->
00:29:55.359For certain things.
00:29:55.599 -->
00:30:02.319Like they maybe didn't even have a dress, like, but they created something just for um her that painting.
00:30:02.640 -->
00:30:12.240Like Brianna Taylor, you know, of course, she said she had to l uh interview the parents of the family to get the story behind her so that she could really paint who she was.
00:30:12.720 -->
00:30:14.799And the designer made a dress for her.
00:30:14.960 -->
00:30:30.240Of course, she didn't put the dress on Brianna Taylor, but she she the the the dress that the designer made based off of what the parents told her that she liked and stuff like that matched perfectly compared to what you know what I say.
00:30:30.400 -->
00:30:32.160It was yeah, it was amazing, y'all.
00:30:32.240 -->
00:30:32.880So check it out.
00:30:33.039 -->
00:30:34.480What's her name again?
00:30:35.200 -->
00:30:37.039Why would you ask me again?
00:30:37.839 -->
00:30:39.279Amy Sherald.
00:30:39.759 -->
00:30:40.240Sherald.
00:30:40.640 -->
00:30:41.599Okay, Amy Sherald.
00:30:41.839 -->
00:30:42.640Amy Sherald.
00:30:42.880 -->
00:30:44.480And she's actually from Columbus, Georgia.
00:30:44.720 -->
00:30:45.359Columbus, Georgia.
00:30:45.440 -->
00:30:48.400Went to the race, went to Clark and then Spelman.
00:30:48.799 -->
00:30:50.160Yeah, went to Clark, then Spelman.
00:30:50.640 -->
00:30:53.839And she is just an artist, and that's what she wanted to be.
00:30:54.000 -->
00:30:59.039And her mom then weren't too sure about her doing that because they said our um artists, you know, usually are broke.
00:30:59.279 -->
00:31:02.319And what she was, because remember what she said from when for a long time.
00:31:02.880 -->
00:31:05.359From 20, was it 22, maybe, to 34?
00:31:05.920 -->
00:31:07.03934, about 33.
00:31:07.279 -->
00:31:08.07937, something like that.
00:31:08.240 -->
00:31:08.720Something like that.
00:31:08.880 -->
00:31:09.599A long time she was just.
00:31:09.839 -->
00:31:10.400She bust tables.
00:31:10.480 -->
00:31:11.200She busts.
00:31:11.839 -->
00:31:13.200Yeah, she was a server waiter.
00:31:13.599 -->
00:31:14.480Server tables, yeah.
00:31:14.720 -->
00:31:27.440Um, and then before it all became a thing, and I think the biggest thing that kind of took her up a notch was was the Obamas requesting her to do uh their self-portrait.
00:31:27.839 -->
00:31:29.519Yeah, because of some paintings they saw.
00:31:30.000 -->
00:31:33.839Because they're uh, you know, love art, art enthusiasts themselves.
00:31:34.240 -->
00:31:58.160Yeah, so anywho, she went after her dream and um yeah, she said what was the thing that she said and she said, don't let people um people's compliments or people's negative compliments help you decide whether to do or not to do.
00:31:58.319 -->
00:31:59.599You do what you want to do.
00:31:59.680 -->
00:32:06.000Yeah, and she said that's what she's lived by, and that's why she feels like she was able to accomplish her dreams.
00:32:06.400 -->
00:32:06.720Yeah.
00:32:07.119 -->
00:32:07.839Great day.
00:32:08.400 -->
00:32:09.519Great day.
00:32:09.759 -->
00:32:10.240Great day.
00:32:10.319 -->
00:32:10.640Yeah.
00:32:10.880 -->
00:32:11.519All right.
00:32:11.920 -->
00:32:14.079So now let's get into.
00:32:14.559 -->
00:32:17.200You can't even tell people to do it because we didn't do it today.
00:32:17.440 -->
00:32:19.599No, we didn't do a wellness, you didn't do your wellness tip.
00:32:19.759 -->
00:32:21.359You got a wellness tip of the week for somebody?
00:32:21.599 -->
00:32:22.240Oh, wellness.
00:32:22.559 -->
00:32:25.279Oh, I thought that was what we was talking about because you did the well, your wellness tip.
00:32:25.519 -->
00:32:26.559I didn't tell anything about that.
00:32:27.119 -->
00:32:28.240But that's why I saw wellness tip.
00:32:28.400 -->
00:32:29.119So I thought you'd like to.
00:32:33.519 -->
00:32:35.200Yeah, it depends on what where they are.
00:32:35.359 -->
00:32:38.480If you're in the gym, wash your body before you come to the gym.
00:32:39.119 -->
00:32:40.160If you already stayed.
00:32:41.119 -->
00:32:42.799Because you're gonna get even more musty.
00:32:42.880 -->
00:32:54.000And the last thing we want to do is have to inhale hard after doing a heavy set of squats, and you right there beside us smelling like old nuts and underarm length.
00:32:54.160 -->
00:32:57.759Because you know why, and I know what people think, and it ain't right.
00:32:58.000 -->
00:33:00.799But if they mind thinking, it don't even matter.
00:33:00.880 -->
00:33:02.640I'm gonna go sweat and work out.
00:33:02.799 -->
00:33:05.279And I only take a shower before I go, but you do.
00:33:05.599 -->
00:33:05.839Yeah.
00:33:06.000 -->
00:33:10.559The same people that say that are the same ones as soon as they finish working out, they're gonna sit on the couch.
00:33:10.720 -->
00:33:12.319Man, I just crashed when I left the gym.
00:33:12.400 -->
00:33:12.960I just fell asleep.
00:33:13.119 -->
00:33:14.079Yeah, your little stay.
00:33:14.240 -->
00:33:15.680Now your sweated couch is jacked up.
00:33:15.759 -->
00:33:18.400You tell them, hey, man, let's sit on the couch and watch the game.
00:33:18.640 -->
00:33:27.119And you're wondering why every time you jump up and sit back down, a big puff of uh nut must come up in the air.
00:33:27.920 -->
00:33:28.480Who wants that?
00:33:29.440 -->
00:33:30.000You know what I'm saying?
00:33:30.319 -->
00:33:31.440You should shower before you go.
00:33:31.599 -->
00:33:38.079I mean, it's like in public, you know, don't add funk on top of funk, because that's just gonna be extra funky funk.
00:33:38.400 -->
00:33:38.960That's it.
00:33:39.200 -->
00:33:40.079Two times the funk.
00:33:41.119 -->
00:33:42.240Two times the funk.
00:33:42.559 -->
00:33:43.759So that's that's my tip.
00:33:44.000 -->
00:33:45.599Shower before you go to the gym.
00:33:45.759 -->
00:33:47.039If you if you stink.
00:33:47.279 -->
00:33:49.599If you don't stink, you don't have to shower before you go to the gym.
00:33:49.680 -->
00:33:50.319You know what I'm saying?
00:33:50.720 -->
00:33:51.680Yeah, if you don't stink.
00:33:51.920 -->
00:33:53.519Yeah, because you can go right after work.
00:33:53.599 -->
00:33:53.680Yeah.
00:33:53.920 -->
00:34:06.559But if you know you done had nine hours out there, you know, shoveling hay for the for the cows and whatnot, because you're a country person, go take a bath.
00:34:06.799 -->
00:34:08.079Before you go to the gym.
00:34:08.480 -->
00:34:10.880Or at least you know they got the man wipes.
00:34:11.119 -->
00:34:13.119Yeah, do they have a dude wipes?
00:34:13.840 -->
00:34:17.360Like get you a little wipes or something, kind of freshen yourself up, you know, a little bit.
00:34:17.679 -->
00:34:18.639Put some tussa on.
00:34:18.880 -->
00:34:23.280Get you a little more deodorant to kind of apply and wipe in those areas that's a little foam.
00:34:23.440 -->
00:34:24.559Yep, baking soda.
00:34:24.800 -->
00:34:29.519And definitely don't go and put on the same workout.
00:34:30.000 -->
00:34:33.440Some people put on the same workout clothes and they haven't washed them.
00:34:33.679 -->
00:34:36.000Tell your kids to take their P coats home.
00:34:36.239 -->
00:34:36.880Oh, yeah.
00:34:37.119 -->
00:34:37.440Yeah.
00:34:37.599 -->
00:34:49.199And your parent, parents out there with kids that play football, if you don't ever see your child bring home, because you know, like they're undergarments, like they tights and stuff like that, because schools don't wash them no more.
00:34:49.280 -->
00:34:50.880They only wash game uniforms.
00:34:51.119 -->
00:34:55.599If you don't ever see your child bring home their stuff, they're foul.
00:34:55.760 -->
00:34:59.280Because as a coach, I used to hate getting in a huddle with our kids stinking uniforms.
00:34:59.679 -->
00:35:00.320I hated that.
00:35:00.400 -->
00:35:02.960I used to tell them, I said, I'm sorry, boss, but you got to stand over there.
00:35:03.039 -->
00:35:04.079I'm gonna talk to you from over here.
00:35:04.320 -->
00:35:06.320Coach Ross said, Yeah, man, because you stink.
00:35:06.960 -->
00:35:08.719I told y'all take y'all stuff home.
00:35:08.960 -->
00:35:09.519Yes.
00:35:09.840 -->
00:35:12.239So that's my wellness tip of the week.
00:35:12.320 -->
00:35:12.960What's yours?
00:35:13.119 -->
00:35:18.000Um, I'm gonna put my favorite wellness tip, and I know I said it before, and I'm gonna say it.
00:35:18.400 -->
00:35:35.599Say it again, then um, my wellness tip, especially for our educators who spent the summer, hopefully, um, taking care of themselves, enjoying waking up when you want to wake up, doing all the things.
00:35:35.920 -->
00:35:48.159So as school starts, you have to remember to still take care of yourself because there are some educators that I mean the boundaries are just not there.
00:35:48.320 -->
00:35:52.559So, my wellness tip schedule joy on purpose.
00:35:52.800 -->
00:35:56.880So start with at least at least once a month.
00:35:57.119 -->
00:36:03.519What is something you're scheduling for yourself that makes you smile, makes you feel good?
00:36:03.840 -->
00:36:05.280What is that one thing?
00:36:05.599 -->
00:36:06.320What is that gonna be?
00:36:06.480 -->
00:36:09.360So schedule just one thing.
00:36:09.840 -->
00:36:15.039What would be superb is if you could schedule at least one thing a week.
00:36:15.199 -->
00:36:27.119Because it doesn't have to be a big thing, it could be um maybe on a specific day on your way home, you get your favorite coffee drink.
00:36:27.360 -->
00:36:38.000Maybe that one week could be, maybe you do order grub pub or something for your lunch, something good to eat at lunch instead of eating your normal old sandwich and chips.
00:36:38.239 -->
00:36:39.519Whatever that could be.
00:36:39.760 -->
00:36:54.079Or maybe it could be Friday night, you find a new good movie to watch, you buy, you have some little snacks and you spend your Friday night just sitting watching something that's gonna make you feel good.
00:36:54.239 -->
00:36:56.159But what is it going, what are you gonna schedule?
00:36:56.400 -->
00:36:57.519What are you gonna schedule?
00:36:57.760 -->
00:37:01.679So thinking about that, and then it gives you something to look forward to.
00:37:01.840 -->
00:37:20.639So if you got Tyrone in your class who's cutting up, you'll know, oh my Lord, when Friday comes, I cannot wait for that, whatever the thing you schedule, so that that thing can bring you some joy as you're trying to figure out how, what kind of behavior things am I gonna put in place for Tyrone.
00:37:20.880 -->
00:37:21.679For Tyrone.
00:37:22.480 -->
00:37:28.960So it just gives you something to look forward to because oftentimes we just get to the hustle and bustle of things.
00:37:29.760 -->
00:37:30.880What is bustle?
00:37:31.280 -->
00:37:32.639Um, I don't know.
00:37:32.880 -->
00:37:34.320It's just the phrase.
00:37:34.559 -->
00:37:35.599It's just a phrase.
00:37:35.760 -->
00:37:38.480But we get into the hustle and bustle and we just are doing things.
00:37:38.719 -->
00:37:43.119Like I even now for me, like finding myself doing the hustle and bustle of things.
00:37:43.199 -->
00:37:46.079That's why I went to the high museum, I was like, that's what we're doing today.
00:37:46.400 -->
00:37:53.760So even though I had clients from nine to one, I was like, after I get off, we go into the high museum.
00:37:54.000 -->
00:37:57.360So um finding things to do.
00:37:57.760 -->
00:38:01.679Um we ain't bustle today because we do hustle and bustle.
00:38:01.840 -->
00:38:03.360We hustle, but we ain't bustle today.
00:38:03.599 -->
00:38:04.239Oh my gosh.
00:38:04.559 -->
00:38:05.519We saw them bustle.
00:38:05.920 -->
00:38:22.880All the things that you just find yourself doing where life just seems to feel like, oh, all I do is go to work, come home, exercise, go to bed, wake up, work out, go to work, come home, go to work again.
00:38:23.920 -->
00:38:25.760So don't make that your life.
00:38:25.920 -->
00:38:27.840Find things that bring you joy.
00:38:28.000 -->
00:38:30.000So I challenge you to find joy.
00:38:30.239 -->
00:38:31.280Find joy.
00:38:31.599 -->
00:38:32.559Schedule joy, I mean.
00:38:32.800 -->
00:38:33.280Schedule joy.
00:38:33.519 -->
00:38:34.079Schedule joy.
00:38:34.400 -->
00:38:36.719So speaking of scheduling, okay.
00:38:36.960 -->
00:38:39.039There's an August schedule we want y'all to do.
00:38:39.199 -->
00:38:42.079So most of y'all probably already missed, and it doesn't matter.
00:38:42.159 -->
00:38:46.400Whenever you watch this episode, Michelle Obama, it's kind of like meditation.
00:38:46.559 -->
00:38:50.159You know, you don't have to worry about, oh man, I missed so much out of meditation.
00:38:50.320 -->
00:38:51.360You just start where you are.
00:38:51.519 -->
00:38:51.760Yes.
00:38:51.920 -->
00:38:52.639Start where you are.
00:38:53.039 -->
00:38:53.679Start where you are.
00:38:53.840 -->
00:38:55.039Don't worry about catching up.
00:38:55.280 -->
00:39:04.159We're going to share it too on our social media, but they have a 30-day couples challenge.
00:39:04.239 -->
00:39:07.599And every day you do something as a couple.
00:39:07.840 -->
00:39:10.320And I don't think it's about a perfect score.
00:39:10.480 -->
00:39:15.760I think what it's about is just keeping couple things on your mind to do together.
00:39:16.239 -->
00:39:16.559Every day.
00:39:16.719 -->
00:39:17.039Every day.
00:39:17.519 -->
00:39:26.800Because there are some days you're so busy, like you, you know, another stand, ripping and running that you don't realize that, you know what?
00:39:27.199 -->
00:39:29.199Everything was catered to my job.
00:39:29.360 -->
00:39:29.760Mm-hmm.
00:39:29.920 -->
00:39:33.360And other people today, not one thing was catered to my spouse.
00:39:34.000 -->
00:39:36.000Not even just the routine of like, well, I'm cooking.
00:39:36.079 -->
00:39:37.679You're really cooking for yourself, too.
00:39:37.920 -->
00:39:38.960And you got to cook.
00:39:39.199 -->
00:39:39.440Yeah.
00:39:39.599 -->
00:39:43.280So it's like, well, I cook, but I needed to eat.
00:39:43.519 -->
00:39:54.800So you gotta find something where you're actually doing it for the person that's always there for you in your in your greatest moments and your ugliest moments.
00:39:55.039 -->
00:40:00.960And when, and also sometimes you get to the hustle and bustle and you feel a little bit like disconnected.
00:40:01.199 -->
00:40:03.840So just things to kind of make sure you stay connected.
00:40:04.000 -->
00:40:08.000So 30-day um relationship challenge.
00:40:08.159 -->
00:40:14.960So, like day one, which would be today, it says send your partner a romantic good morning text.
00:40:15.199 -->
00:40:17.440Well, I'll send you a good night text since we missed it.
00:40:17.599 -->
00:40:18.559Well, see, we can swap it.
00:40:18.719 -->
00:40:18.880Yeah.
00:40:18.960 -->
00:40:19.119Yeah.
00:40:19.360 -->
00:40:21.280So, anyways, we're gonna share it.
00:40:21.840 -->
00:40:23.920But you don't answer text in the night.
00:40:24.159 -->
00:40:25.199Because I'm asleep.
00:40:25.840 -->
00:40:27.199No, even before you fall asleep.
00:40:27.440 -->
00:40:32.559Well, sometimes I'm playing Uno, so I don't know the text messages come through because when I'm on Uno, they don't show up.
00:40:32.639 -->
00:40:32.880They don't.
00:40:33.199 -->
00:40:35.440Because you got the uh do not disturb anyone.
00:40:35.679 -->
00:40:36.079Well, I don't know.
00:40:36.159 -->
00:40:36.639It don't cut it.
00:40:36.719 -->
00:40:37.280Probably so.
00:40:37.519 -->
00:40:40.320So, anyways, I may not get it because I'm playing Uno.
00:40:42.000 -->
00:40:48.800So sometimes that disconnect don't even be Well, listen, I do my best.
00:40:49.119 -->
00:40:50.559The power company just don't work.
00:40:51.440 -->
00:40:55.199Anyways, so August challenge, we're gonna post it.

00:41:24.159Ask your partner about their day and genuinely listen.
00:41:24.880 -->
00:41:28.559Offer solutions to any problems they mention.
00:41:29.119 -->
00:41:33.760First, you probably want to ask, do you want me to just listen or do you want me to help you?
00:41:34.159 -->
00:41:36.400Yeah, ask that because that is important.
00:41:36.800 -->
00:41:37.840I've learned to start doing that.
00:41:38.000 -->
00:41:38.800Ask that first.
00:41:38.960 -->
00:41:40.000All right, number four.
00:41:40.159 -->
00:41:44.559Um, share a goal you have for your relationship.
00:41:44.880 -->
00:41:46.719Go ahead and give me number five, and then we'll stop.
00:41:47.119 -->
00:41:55.760And number five, write a sweet note for your partner and hide it for them to find later.
00:41:58.639 -->
00:42:00.400Where will you put it?
00:42:01.519 -->
00:42:05.679That'll be nice because I feel like when you do that, they're gonna find it on the day they really need it.
00:42:05.760 -->
00:42:07.599I think that's just how life works.
00:42:07.840 -->
00:42:14.400And it's gonna be a day that they really just need to, you know, and then I know where I'm gonna put mine.
00:42:14.719 -->
00:42:18.079Then they'll, oh goodness, I wonder where it's put out putting it.
00:42:18.159 -->
00:42:20.320But anyways, so we'll update you.
00:42:20.400 -->

00:43:56.880 -->
00:43:58.480Is Regina Hall?
00:43:58.800 -->
00:43:59.760Yes and who?
00:44:00.079 -->
00:44:02.079Who is the other woman that's very popular?
00:44:02.320 -->
00:44:04.079Uh is her name start with an A?
00:44:04.159 -->
00:44:04.960I mean a J.
00:44:07.440 -->
00:44:10.079Um The girl that played in was it Scream?
00:44:10.719 -->
00:44:11.840The Five Star Weekend.
00:44:12.800 -->
00:44:14.719That's the name of the series.
00:44:15.199 -->
00:44:21.920Um what what uh platform is it on, or what uh uh Peacock.
00:44:22.079 -->
00:44:23.360It's on Peacock.
00:44:23.519 -->
00:44:25.519So it's the five-star weekend.
00:44:26.320 -->
00:44:29.199Um one lady's husband dies.
00:44:30.480 -->
00:44:36.960And she calls her best friends to come and spend a three-day weekend with him, right?
00:44:37.199 -->
00:44:43.599Yeah, it's a three-day weekend, and they call the five-star weekend because she's like a famous chef on TV.
00:44:44.159 -->
00:44:44.800Five friends, right?
00:44:44.960 -->
00:44:47.360It's five friends, four friends.
00:44:47.679 -->
00:44:51.440And then somebody who is a friend but she ain't a friend.
00:44:51.760 -->
00:44:59.199So without giving too much away, everybody has something going on in their life that they haven't told all the friends.
00:44:59.440 -->
00:45:01.840Yes, it's very good so far.
00:45:02.079 -->
00:45:02.719Very, very good.
00:45:02.960 -->
00:45:09.440And um, I feel like it does a it's like ling you leaves you like it lingers.
00:45:09.679 -->
00:45:14.400Because like we're on episode maybe five or six.
00:45:14.719 -->
00:45:15.280Five or six.
00:45:15.440 -->
00:45:17.199And it's probably only two days.
00:45:17.599 -->
00:45:17.840Yeah.
00:45:18.159 -->
00:45:19.440Two days have passed, three days have passed.
00:45:19.519 -->
00:45:20.400No, yeah, two days have passed.
00:45:20.800 -->
00:45:22.880Not even, yeah, but it's probably slow.
00:45:23.199 -->
00:45:25.119But I mean, but it's not it's still good.
00:45:25.280 -->
00:45:28.239Yeah, it's it's slow when you look at the timestamp.
00:45:28.320 -->
00:45:40.880Yeah, but the events are eventful because you're you're you're learning something from this person between this person, then something's happening over here between this person, and everybody has their own things going on.
00:45:41.280 -->
00:45:44.960But there's one specific thing that I'm ready for somebody to find out about.
00:45:45.119 -->
00:45:45.599Yeah.
00:45:45.840 -->
00:45:46.800But they have not.
00:45:46.960 -->
00:45:48.239Who knows how it's gonna find out?
00:45:48.559 -->
00:45:53.440Yeah, so, anyways, that's something new that we're watching.
00:45:53.679 -->
00:45:55.519And what was the I don't know the other one?
00:45:55.920 -->
00:45:57.679The other one was with uh, what's her name?
00:45:57.760 -->
00:46:05.360The lady that uh was the help and mom of not Viola Davis, uh Octavia Spencer.
00:46:05.519 -->
00:46:06.719Yeah, Octavia Spencer.
00:46:06.800 -->
00:46:14.559She's she's in a uh a show, and I want to say that maybe on Prime, and it's with uh her best friend.
00:46:14.719 -->
00:46:20.400She found out, well, her husband wants to divorce her.
00:46:20.719 -->
00:46:21.360Ride or die.
00:46:21.599 -->
00:46:33.679Yeah, ride or die, winds up dead, and discovers that her best friend, this is the pre- the what they say on the commercial, and her best friend, she finds out all in the same night her best friend is a um top secret uh spy.
00:46:33.920 -->
00:46:34.400Assassin.
00:46:34.480 -->
00:46:35.519Yeah, assassin.
00:46:35.760 -->
00:46:36.719She's an assassin.
00:46:37.119 -->
00:46:38.239So that has been really good.
00:46:38.639 -->
00:46:42.960So we watch, well, the only time we have time to watch TV is on Sunday.
00:46:43.199 -->
00:46:43.519Yeah.
00:46:43.679 -->
00:46:47.119And so on Sundays, we'll watch one of those, one of each.
00:46:47.360 -->
00:46:50.559Yeah, or two of which we at one point I didn't know.
00:46:50.719 -->
00:46:53.920Kree obviously distracted me.
00:46:54.159 -->
00:46:54.639Why?
00:46:54.880 -->
00:46:58.719The first time we watched because I was like, we on episode three of that of the five stars.
00:46:59.840 -->
00:47:01.920I was like, Because we was doing a switch.
00:47:02.000 -->
00:47:03.519Every day we like one of this and one of that.
00:47:03.760 -->
00:47:04.719I was like, you cheating.
00:47:04.800 -->
00:47:07.360She just said, Oh, oh, I didn't even pay attention.
00:47:07.599 -->
00:47:08.800It wasn't I didn't pay attention.
00:47:08.960 -->
00:47:09.599I just know him.
00:47:09.679 -->
00:47:13.440Sometimes he'll do that and we'll end up and we never finish the series.
00:47:13.840 -->
00:47:14.639We finish.
00:47:15.119 -->
00:47:16.480Some of them we do for the few.
00:47:16.639 -->
00:47:24.000But when we have time, like not during the week, not when school is in, like we probably, if we don't finish it this weekend, we probably won't finish until January.
00:47:24.320 -->
00:47:25.519Well, we'll have Sundays.
00:47:25.679 -->
00:47:28.480But I'm saying, like, nope, that's why a lot of because we're going.
00:47:28.880 -->
00:47:29.599And so for me.
00:47:29.920 -->
00:47:32.079We're ripping and running with the hustle and bustle.
00:47:32.239 -->
00:47:33.519With that hustle and bustle.
00:47:33.760 -->
00:47:46.079Now, listen, for me, I need to watch it because if we watch up to episode five or six and then try to finish it in January, I done doggone it.
00:47:46.159 -->
00:47:48.159I done forgot what happened.
00:47:48.639 -->
00:47:53.760So my brain just needs to be able to see it in a certain amount of time.
00:47:54.000 -->
00:47:54.480I understand.
00:47:54.639 -->
00:47:56.000And he don't like to binge.
00:47:56.239 -->
00:47:56.880I'll binge.
00:47:57.199 -->
00:47:58.800I can remember what happened.
00:47:59.039 -->
00:48:00.320But it ain't the same.
00:48:00.559 -->
00:48:06.000But it's just, well, for me, it's just like something else probably is like, well, lost interest.
00:48:06.400 -->
00:48:07.039Oh, this looks good.
00:48:07.119 -->
00:48:07.840Let me check this out.
00:48:08.000 -->
00:48:11.280No, see, and I I like to finish things, I start.
00:48:11.519 -->
00:48:12.000Yeah.
00:48:14.000 -->
00:48:14.960Me too.
00:48:17.760 -->
00:48:24.320But one show we did like looking like this.
00:48:25.280 -->
00:48:26.159What did you do?
00:48:26.639 -->
00:48:27.599What is you doing?
00:48:29.679 -->
00:48:31.360You just my girlfriend.
00:48:31.760 -->
00:48:32.880You and my wife.
00:48:33.280 -->
00:48:35.199I tell you both what to do.
00:48:37.760 -->
00:48:38.800Remember who that was?
00:48:39.199 -->
00:48:40.079What was his name?
00:48:40.719 -->
00:48:41.199Cecil.
00:48:41.760 -->
00:48:42.320Cecil.
00:48:42.480 -->
00:48:43.360What was his name?
00:48:43.760 -->
00:48:44.719I don't even remember now.
00:48:44.800 -->
00:48:45.760You done messed me up.
00:48:46.719 -->
00:48:47.920What was the name of the show?
00:48:48.159 -->
00:48:48.880Polygamus.
00:48:49.119 -->
00:48:49.840Polygamist.
00:48:50.159 -->
00:48:50.960Yes, polygamous.
00:48:51.199 -->
00:48:52.159Y'all know about polygamous.
00:48:52.639 -->
00:48:54.079It was it with a Jonas.
00:48:54.320 -->
00:48:54.719Jonas.
00:48:54.880 -->
00:48:55.440Jonas.
00:48:55.679 -->
00:48:56.719Y'all remember Jonas?
00:48:57.199 -->
00:48:58.639If y'all haven't seen Jonas.
00:48:58.960 -->
00:49:00.079That was on Netflix.
00:49:00.239 -->
00:49:00.960On Netflix.
00:49:01.199 -->
00:49:02.800Jonas is reggaey.
00:49:02.960 -->
00:49:03.679Now check this out.
00:49:03.760 -->
00:49:06.559This is for, and everybody said the same thing Kree said.
00:49:06.719 -->
00:49:08.079And Kree always says this.
00:49:08.159 -->
00:49:10.960And I say this at first until I watched the movie Lupin.
00:49:11.599 -->
00:49:13.039Lupin is an amazing series.
00:49:13.119 -->
00:49:16.079But Kree, what did you say if the voice don't match or whatever you like?
00:49:16.400 -->
00:49:17.280I don't like to watch it.
00:49:17.679 -->
00:49:26.079If I start to watch it and then it's an American voice and then mouse around and it doesn't match, I'm like, But I cannot do it.
00:49:26.239 -->
00:49:27.599You kept giving it, you gave it a shot.
00:49:28.400 -->
00:49:32.800Because you told me, you said, give it at least two to three episodes.
00:49:33.039 -->
00:49:35.119So I did, and then I was locked.
00:49:35.360 -->
00:49:35.679Locked.
00:49:35.760 -->
00:49:37.119You don't even really pay attention, do you?
00:49:37.280 -->
00:49:37.519No.
00:49:37.679 -->
00:49:42.400Because you're so into everything that it, and that's really how the brain works.
00:49:42.480 -->
00:49:42.719Yeah.
00:49:42.960 -->
00:49:47.920The brain actually starts kind of sinking, and then it just it like says, Well, that's not the important part of it.
00:49:48.320 -->
00:49:52.480You hear it and you're watching other actions of the person's body and all that stuff.
00:49:52.639 -->
00:50:00.880And uh, and many people, like when we when it first came out on Facebook and stuff, people were saying, Oh, when it did that, honey, I two minutes and I was done.
00:50:00.960 -->
00:50:01.440I couldn't do it.
00:50:01.519 -->
00:50:02.960I said, Y'all got to give it a chance.
00:50:03.119 -->
00:50:04.400And some people did give it a chance.
00:50:04.559 -->
00:50:06.159They went back and said, Keefe, you were right.
00:50:06.239 -->
00:50:06.960This is crazy.
00:50:07.440 -->
00:50:09.119This dude is a mess, you know.
00:50:09.360 -->
00:50:11.679But you have to give it a shot, trust me.
00:50:12.000 -->
00:50:14.480It is insane.
00:50:15.119 -->
00:50:16.159It's so good, though.

00:51:03.840So see if I had lessons in classes, hey, but I want to be just an American person, then I could be like, yo, man, what?

00:51:31.440 -->
00:51:32.559That all sounds a terrible idea.
00:51:32.719 -->
00:51:32.960I understand.
00:51:33.280 -->
00:51:33.920Terrible idea.
00:51:34.159 -->
00:51:34.559I understand.
00:51:34.719 -->
00:51:34.960All right.

00:51:45.039I'm gonna give you my phone.
00:51:45.280 -->
00:51:46.079And there you go.

00:51:47.840 -->
00:51:51.440Um, I kind of like the Believe It Sister one.
00:51:51.760 -->
00:51:54.400The uh HIV thing.
00:51:54.639 -->
00:51:57.760Okay, and you're gonna read the other one, or just the one that's only you want to read the other one?
00:51:58.079 -->
00:51:58.559That's good enough.
00:51:58.719 -->
00:52:00.079Child, we might not even get to it.
00:52:00.239 -->
00:52:02.239Your phone, probably only like half percent.
00:52:02.400 -->
00:52:03.440Well, re fast.
00:52:04.000 -->
00:52:05.280All right, here we go.
00:52:05.760 -->
00:52:13.360The title of this is called Family Outrage After Teen Left to Discover Her HIV diagnosis through online portal.
00:52:13.519 -->
00:52:14.159Mm-mm-mm.
00:52:14.639 -->
00:52:16.239She said, I was just crying.
00:52:16.320 -->
00:52:17.840I felt like my life was over.
00:52:18.079 -->
00:52:18.719Yeah.
00:52:19.039 -->
00:52:29.920So a Georgia family says an urgent care clinic failed to notify their teenage daughter after an HIV screen and came back positive, leaving the teen to discover the result on her own through an online patient portal.
00:52:30.079 -->
00:52:38.719The family later learned the test result was a false positive, but they say the experience nearly ended in tragedy after the teenager attempted to take her own life.
00:52:39.039 -->
00:52:40.880All right, so now we got a app.
00:52:41.199 -->
00:52:42.559I mean, not an app, what you call it?
00:52:42.960 -->
00:52:43.360Commercial.
00:52:43.920 -->
00:52:45.039Yeah, here we go.
00:52:45.519 -->
00:52:55.760The family who asked not to be identified to protect the teenager's privacy said the incident began in June after the girl visited Pickens' urgent care indicator.
00:52:55.920 -->
00:53:03.199According to the mother, she woke up to her daughter's screams after the teen had checked her MyChart account around 2 a.m.
00:53:03.599 -->
00:53:06.239and found a positive HIV test result.
00:53:06.960 -->
00:53:11.360I just didn't feel good at the moment, the teenager told Channel 2 Action News.
00:53:11.519 -->
00:53:19.599The mother says she forced her way into the teen's locked bedroom to find that she had attempted to take her life after the diagnosis.
00:53:19.840 -->
00:53:20.960I was just crying.
00:53:21.119 -->
00:53:24.079I felt like my life was over, the teenager said.
00:53:24.320 -->
00:53:32.480Her mother said the clinic never contacted the family, and after four additional tests at different facilities, all came back negative.
00:53:32.719 -->
00:53:36.239A nurse at an HIV clinic urged her to investigate further.
00:53:36.400 -->
00:53:38.880She said, Mom, this is a false positive.
00:53:39.039 -->
00:53:40.880Do your research on that clinic.
00:53:41.039 -->
00:53:43.760Do your due diligence, the mother recalled.
00:53:44.000 -->
00:53:55.039The family found numerous poor Google reviews of the clinic, many of which alleged long wait times and negulant um negligence.
00:53:56.000 -->
00:54:00.079Negligent and negligent and what you were trying to say.
00:54:00.239 -->
00:54:01.760Yeah, I'm tired too.
00:54:02.320 -->
00:54:05.039I'm like, I sound like Miss uh what's her name?
00:54:05.280 -->
00:54:05.920Charles.
00:54:06.159 -->
00:54:06.800Miss Nata.
00:54:07.039 -->
00:54:07.840Yeah, Miss Netta.
00:54:08.639 -->
00:54:13.760Negello Negellis and seemingly uniqualified proveterists.
00:54:16.079 -->
00:54:20.079And negligent and seemingly unqualified providers.
00:54:20.320 -->
00:54:23.519What if I didn't go to another clinic to get tested?
00:54:24.239 -->
00:54:30.320I would have just gone on thinking that I had it, the teenager said to her false positive, of her false positive results.
00:54:30.559 -->
00:54:39.760The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says patients with positive HIV test results should be notified confidentially and promptly.
00:54:39.920 -->
00:54:41.360This thing keeps going to an ad.
00:54:41.840 -->
00:54:43.920And promptly, where am I?
00:54:44.159 -->
00:54:46.079Connected to follow-up care.
00:54:46.320 -->
00:54:58.639Timely notification is critical because early treatment improves health outcomes, reduces the risk of transmission, and ensures patients receive the support and care they need, according to the CDC.
00:54:59.039 -->
00:55:02.719That never happened in the Georgia Teens case, the family claimed.
00:55:02.880 -->
00:55:09.840The mother alleges she was only contacted by the clinic after Channel 2 Action News visited the facility in person.
00:55:10.159 -->
00:55:21.599Clinic officials reported, Lee said, the outlet, I mean, told the outlet that HIV patients are typically scheduled for a follow-up appointment within five days.
00:55:21.840 -->
00:55:26.159Thank God it was a false positive, the mother said about her daughter's situation.
00:55:26.400 -->
00:55:29.760We just want to make sure this doesn't happen to any other teenagers.
00:55:30.000 -->
00:55:31.039Who else has it happened to?
00:55:31.360 -->
00:55:31.599Exactly.
00:55:32.800 -->
00:55:33.840That's the thing.
00:55:34.159 -->
00:55:41.760Most states, including Georgia, do not have a specific license or regulator for urgent care centers, according to community catalysts.
00:55:42.079 -->
00:55:43.039I did not know that.
00:55:43.280 -->
00:55:43.760Yep.
00:55:44.000 -->
00:55:50.559A national nonprofit focus on making health care more accessible, affordable, and equitable.
00:55:50.800 -->
00:55:58.719Instead, the doctors and other medical professionals working there are licensed individually, or the clinic operates under a hospital's license.
00:55:58.800 -->
00:55:59.440That's what I was about to say.
00:56:00.480 -->
00:56:03.039Yeah, like what's the one we go to?
00:56:03.760 -->
00:56:04.159Whatever it is.
00:56:04.559 -->
00:56:05.199Oh, Wellstar.
00:56:05.440 -->
00:56:06.159Yeah, Wellstar.
00:56:06.320 -->
00:56:06.639Uh-huh.
00:56:06.960 -->
00:56:11.760And so, or the clinic operates under a hospital's license if it is affiliated with one.
00:56:11.840 -->
00:56:12.480So some aren't.
00:56:12.719 -->
00:56:13.440Aren't, yeah.
00:56:13.679 -->
00:56:14.000Yep.
00:56:14.159 -->
00:56:23.920The independent has contacted the news people, contacted Pickens Urgent Care and the Georgia Composite Medical Board for comment.
00:56:24.480 -->
00:56:26.079But nobody has said anything.
00:56:27.039 -->
00:56:27.599They haven't.
00:56:28.000 -->
00:56:35.599And people now tend to go to urgent care because either they can't get an A with in with their doctor soon enough.
00:56:35.840 -->
00:56:42.960And so they end up going to urgent care for immediate care because it is, I think, gone are the days when you can call your doctor and get a visit.
00:56:43.039 -->
00:56:43.920It seemed like it's too many.
00:56:44.079 -->
00:56:44.639The doctor doesn't have to be.
00:56:46.079 -->
00:56:47.840And so you can't wait for your doctor.
00:56:47.920 -->
00:56:50.320So you go to the urgent care.
00:56:50.400 -->
00:56:54.159And now, child, are they get you get taking medicines and getting all this stuff?
00:56:54.239 -->
00:56:55.119Do you really need it?
00:56:55.280 -->
00:56:55.679Mm-hmm.
00:56:55.920 -->
00:56:56.320Mm-hmm.
00:56:56.559 -->
00:56:58.480Because are they just charging up things?
00:56:58.719 -->
00:57:00.960Because I heard that one time and I was thinking they gave me everything.
00:57:01.039 -->
00:57:01.760I got a shot.
00:57:01.920 -->
00:57:04.480I got uh I had about five prescriptions.
00:57:04.639 -->
00:57:05.840They was like, just in case.
00:57:06.000 -->
00:57:06.880I was like, okay.
00:57:07.119 -->
00:57:08.159Okay, case.
00:57:08.320 -->
00:57:08.800Yeah.
00:57:09.039 -->
00:57:13.920And so for this little lady, I mean, what if she would have What if she was successful?
00:57:14.320 -->
00:57:17.599Yeah, you know, um unalibing herself, yeah.
00:57:18.239 -->
00:57:18.559That's good.
00:57:18.800 -->
00:57:32.239But even with that, with HIV, like, you know, let's say she was uh positive, but the test was the other way around.
00:57:32.719 -->
00:57:34.639Oh, you know, negative false negative.
00:57:34.800 -->
00:57:40.159Yeah, so here she is out there now having sex with people, say, oof, all right, thank God, child.
00:57:40.320 -->
00:57:42.719And she wouldn't be lying if they said, have you taken the test?
00:57:43.039 -->
00:57:44.559And she says, Whoa.
00:57:45.039 -->
00:57:45.280Whoa.
00:57:45.440 -->
00:57:47.519Because her results would show she could show the looks.
00:57:48.000 -->
00:57:48.480I'm negative.
00:57:48.800 -->
00:57:58.880And then actually, so how many people if that thing, if that urgent care, whatever you want to call it, have gotten a false negative and they out here just infecting folks.
00:57:59.039 -->
00:57:59.199Yep.
00:57:59.280 -->
00:58:02.320That's why Georgia, the case up here in Atlanta going crazy.
00:58:02.559 -->
00:58:03.840But what is so hard about?
00:58:03.920 -->
00:58:05.360I mean, is it a blood test?
00:58:05.519 -->
00:58:08.079What is so hard about giving an HIV test?
00:58:08.320 -->
00:58:09.519Are they giving old ones?
00:58:09.760 -->
00:58:13.760Maybe they're not some, like, I bet you that's it.
00:58:13.920 -->
00:58:18.480I bet you they just have um, I don't know what they use it for, but are they expired?
00:58:18.880 -->
00:58:20.320Listen, we're not ordering none right now.
00:58:20.639 -->
00:58:21.360Let's use what we got.
00:58:21.519 -->
00:58:22.400Use these old ink blocks.
00:58:22.719 -->
00:58:23.519It'll be fine.
00:58:23.679 -->
00:58:30.239And are they using those and they're expired and not getting accurate results?
00:58:30.480 -->
00:58:31.280Could be true.
00:58:31.599 -->
00:58:38.239You know, like how we try to use when we had all those uh COVID extras, we like, it's a spy.
00:58:38.320 -->
00:58:39.360Let's just see what it's like.
00:58:39.920 -->
00:58:42.800And we would still use them, but then you still feel like unsure.
00:58:43.360 -->
00:58:44.079Yeah, because you don't know.
00:58:44.159 -->
00:58:45.760You'd be like, man, nah, this should be good.
00:58:45.840 -->
00:58:46.880But we got all these tests.
00:58:47.519 -->
00:58:49.039I wonder if that's what they got going there.
00:58:49.119 -->
00:58:51.199If they're they, you know how often.
00:58:51.440 -->
00:58:51.920It could be that.
00:58:52.000 -->
00:58:55.199It could just be the fact that people not reading, you know, measurements right.
00:58:55.760 -->
00:59:03.519You know, um, you know, sometimes when they tell you, like, even with the COVID test, uh, you have to put a certain amount of, you know, of the liquid in.
00:59:03.840 -->
00:59:05.039Yeah, maybe just done wrong.
00:59:05.280 -->
00:59:09.360Yeah, you don't do it wrong, you don't let it sit long enough, you know, all that kind of stuff.
00:59:09.599 -->
00:59:15.360So it could be, you know, a list of things that are that's going on that's making this, you know, this happen.
00:59:15.599 -->
00:59:22.079But um just for the simple fact, man, is like like I can only imagine if I would receive a false positive.
00:59:22.239 -->
00:59:24.480Like, you go to the like for my physical.
00:59:24.719 -->
00:59:25.119Think about it.
00:59:25.199 -->
00:59:32.000I went to my physical and then, you know, my annual this year, and all of a sudden the doctor says, yo, we notice you got HIV.
00:59:32.079 -->
00:59:32.480Mm-hmm.
00:59:34.400 -->
00:59:36.320And then, you know, me, I'm gonna say Cree.
00:59:36.480 -->
00:59:37.760They say I got HIV.
00:59:38.159 -->
00:59:40.880And then I'm probably like looking at you like what you been doing.
00:59:40.960 -->
00:59:43.280And I'm looking at you like what you've been doing.
00:59:44.000 -->
00:59:44.719You know what I mean?
00:59:44.960 -->
00:59:45.760That'll be a mess.
00:59:45.920 -->
00:59:46.239Right.
00:59:46.480 -->
00:59:46.800Yes.
00:59:47.039 -->
00:59:51.920And so here we are on a at a just at odds with each other.
00:59:52.079 -->
00:59:52.480Mm-hmm.
00:59:52.719 -->
00:59:53.599And it's a mistake.
00:59:53.920 -->
00:59:54.480Yeah.
00:59:54.719 -->
00:59:58.719And then hopefully things don't get said that, you know, you can't repair.
00:59:59.679 -->
01:00:00.480You know what I'm saying?
01:00:00.559 -->
01:00:02.320So it's that's that's crazy.
01:00:02.559 -->
01:00:03.280That is crazy.
01:00:03.360 -->
01:00:07.679And I wonder for that young lady, you know, she probably did go back and have something saying.
01:00:07.760 -->
01:00:12.239I don't, I just I don't know why she went for the went for the test.
01:00:12.719 -->
01:00:20.159But anywho, um, yeah, that that is really horrible because that is life-changing news.
01:00:20.400 -->
01:00:36.960Yeah, I remember when we were in college, and folks that knew when we were around that time about that girl, her daddy came and got her, said she was HIV positive, and she was out there running through several folks.
01:00:37.199 -->
01:00:38.079Because she was mad?
01:00:38.400 -->
01:00:47.679I I think that probably was that, you know, she was running through several folks, and it was funny because people were waiting on that call.
01:00:48.719 -->
01:00:55.199Even people like, because as a guy, I was like, I didn't sleep with her, but I don't know, right.
01:00:55.280 -->
01:00:59.199I don't know if a guy slept with her and then slept with somebody I may have slept with.
01:00:59.519 -->
01:01:00.079You know what I mean?
01:01:00.159 -->
01:01:02.079So we were all like, oh shoot.
01:01:03.119 -->
01:01:06.639You know, and because that's how it, you know, it's in college, that's what happens.
01:01:07.119 -->
01:01:12.400But some of the people were, you know, guys were getting tests, and they were all of a sudden, you'd be like, where they go?
01:01:12.800 -->
01:01:13.599Oh no.
01:01:14.480 -->
01:01:14.800Yeah.
01:01:15.119 -->
01:01:15.360Yep.
01:01:15.519 -->
01:01:17.519And so it was that was crazy.
01:01:17.679 -->
01:01:26.159And um, but I mean, that whole era, it was like you can, you know, you hear about what's happening in in Atlanta and it was it was, you know, madness.
01:01:26.320 -->
01:01:31.840You hear about people getting, you know, like you said, HIV, and it was all of a sudden you don't see them no more.
01:01:32.159 -->
01:01:32.400Right.
01:01:32.559 -->
01:01:38.159So I wondered if the parents um um are they gonna file a lawsuit?
01:01:38.320 -->
01:01:39.199Because I definitely would.
01:01:39.599 -->
01:01:41.760I saw another article and they said that they are.
01:01:42.000 -->
01:01:42.960They said they're gonna fall.
01:01:43.199 -->
01:01:46.559One because of the the trauma that the the girl has gone through.
01:01:46.800 -->
01:01:48.159The parents, everybody has gone through trauma.
01:01:48.559 -->
01:01:53.679So you think about your child almost killing yourself and you finding them, and that's traumatic for you.
01:01:53.840 -->
01:01:58.800Yeah um but for the child alone now as a parent, you don't know are they ever gonna try that again?
01:01:59.039 -->
01:02:05.199The child getting that close, you know, what kind of therapy can you provide to make sure for you to think about it once?
01:02:05.280 -->
01:02:07.760We always say they may think about it again, you know.
01:02:07.920 -->
01:02:13.360That's why we ask in therapy every time, you know, any thoughts of harm.
01:02:13.519 -->
01:02:15.519Any thoughts of harm, any thoughts of harm?
01:02:15.760 -->
01:02:24.480You know, and so that yeah, you I mean, it's sad, you know, but you sometimes you gotta hit people in their pockets in order to do so.
01:02:24.559 -->
01:02:27.920But then you got companies, you know, they're safe by bankruptcy.
01:02:28.159 -->
01:02:32.079I wonder, did she um was she there getting tested?
01:02:32.239 -->
01:02:38.079Was she kind of not doing a good job of practicing safe sex?
01:02:38.480 -->
01:02:43.360I don't I don't know if when you go and do like blood work, do they test you for HIV?
01:02:43.679 -->
01:02:45.280No, they don't just test you automatically.
01:02:45.519 -->
01:02:46.159You know what I'm saying?
01:02:46.400 -->
01:02:46.639They don't.
01:02:48.079 -->
01:02:48.880I think they should.
01:02:49.039 -->
01:02:55.599I think when you go, like if you if you're going for a physical, yeah, you know how they say, okay, we're gonna do your blood work, a full composite blood work.
01:02:55.679 -->
01:02:58.719I think that it should include everything in that blood.
01:02:58.880 -->
01:03:12.079Well, yeah, but you have to ask for that because I know when I would go, they would I they would they ask you, you want the full blood work for STDs, da-da-da, when you're doing um You know what?
01:03:12.239 -->
01:03:18.320They ask all the they ask you, and I remember one time I did say, Yeah, I want the full blood work.
01:03:18.639 -->
01:03:22.639And the lady says, But you're the this was the doctor, she says, but you're married.
01:03:23.280 -->
01:03:24.880I said, I don't care if I'm married.
01:03:25.440 -->
01:03:27.519I was like, I want the full blood work.
01:03:27.679 -->
01:03:29.360I was like, it's plenty of people.
01:03:29.519 -->
01:03:34.400I mean, that you would love that you're to know that your spouse is just with you.
01:03:34.559 -->
01:03:36.800Yeah, but I mean, nobody's perfect.
01:03:37.039 -->
01:03:38.880And I had somebody say the the opposite.
01:03:39.119 -->
01:03:40.079Nobody's perfect.
01:03:40.159 -->
01:03:43.840And so that that doctor made me, she says, Well, hmm, I guess.
01:03:43.920 -->
01:03:44.719I said, Oh wow.
01:03:44.880 -->
01:03:47.519Yeah, I had somebody say, I said, no, I don't need the S C D.
01:03:47.599 -->
01:03:49.760They said, I said, I'm I'm you know, I'm good.
01:03:49.840 -->
01:03:50.880I'm faithful in my marriage.
01:03:50.960 -->
01:03:52.800And she said, Well, no, I said, I'm married.
01:03:52.880 -->
01:03:53.760I said, We're faithful.
01:03:53.840 -->
01:03:54.719She said, Well.
01:03:55.119 -->
01:03:57.199And I said, Mm-hmm.
01:03:58.320 -->
01:04:00.559I said, No, I don't need it.
01:04:00.800 -->
01:04:04.719And she, you know, don't know if he's she here, but they looked at me like, I remember that look.
01:04:04.880 -->
01:04:05.119Mm-hmm.
01:04:05.199 -->
01:04:07.119And said, Well, I said, we try to tell her.
01:04:07.519 -->
01:04:08.239I said, nah.
01:04:08.480 -->
01:04:08.880Mm-hmm.
01:04:09.119 -->
01:04:10.159You know, I'm good.
01:04:10.400 -->
01:04:13.119But I do remember that they do used to ask you.
01:04:13.519 -->
01:04:14.320Now they don't ask.
01:04:14.719 -->
01:04:18.639Because, you know, I get blood work all the time, you know, for the different stuff that I have to do.
01:04:18.800 -->
01:04:19.119Yeah.
01:04:19.280 -->
01:04:21.599And but I that is something now that you mention it.
01:04:21.679 -->
01:04:22.320They do not even ask.
01:04:22.800 -->
01:04:23.519Yeah, that is true.
01:04:23.679 -->
01:04:26.079For the last time that I've gone for STDs.
01:04:26.480 -->
01:04:31.760My PAP or blood work, yeah, you're right.
01:04:32.000 -->
01:04:33.039They they don't ask.
01:04:33.280 -->
01:04:46.079I don't even I don't even recall getting the question asked about um the sexual uh the sexual question are you sexually active?
01:04:46.719 -->
01:04:54.880Um it used to say sexually active and you say heterosexual sex or uh Oh yeah, they don't ask sexual sex.
01:04:55.039 -->
01:04:55.679Same sex sex.
01:04:55.760 -->
01:04:58.400Yeah, they didn't say homosexual sex, they said same-sex sex.
01:04:58.719 -->
01:04:59.360Yeah, they don't ask.
01:05:00.000 -->
01:05:04.880Yeah, so it's like I guess that doesn't really matter.
01:05:05.199 -->
01:05:22.239But I mean, but no, I'm just saying, but like, so you know, when they did ask those questions, and you kind of you know, people answered based off of either fear or guilt, you know, and then you did ask them about the test, and some people said based off of I don't know, maybe.
01:05:22.400 -->
01:05:27.199Now if I don't ask, they probably don't even think about say, oh, maybe I should have gotten a STD test.
01:05:27.599 -->
01:05:38.880Well, I feel like anybody that um maybe they feel like now, because I'm thinking to myself, the way that that doctor responded to me was very rude.
01:05:39.760 -->
01:05:43.360Um, and making you feel bad about saying yes.
01:05:43.440 -->
01:05:55.920And then even vice versa, for you, if you went in and they're saying, Are you sure you could be like, I feel like you're trying to say, you know, that it could be offensive, either way could be offensive to somebody.
01:05:56.320 -->
01:05:59.760So I wonder in this highly sensitive.
01:06:00.639 -->
01:06:08.400World that we live in now was that considered not good bedside manners.
01:06:08.559 -->
01:06:29.280And so that was something that they they take out and they just say for people if they're coming in and they have suspicion of their spouse not being um faithful or whatever, that they'll ask for what they need, but we're not gonna do that anymore because that could, I mean, either qu either way in a response could upset somebody.
01:06:29.760 -->
01:06:36.559But if that is the general practice, then I wonder how much you know, STDs is lurking out there.
01:06:36.880 -->
01:06:37.280Yeah.
01:06:37.599 -->
01:06:38.239So yeah.
01:06:38.960 -->
01:06:48.639But I think the only thing about it is if if they are out there for some of them that that kind of lie where they don't have symptoms or they don't, at some point they do.
01:06:49.280 -->
01:06:55.840And then by that time, penile cancer, but I'm saying it's a whole slew of people sick.
01:06:56.000 -->
01:07:05.360Yeah, that's other you don't pass it to everybody, but there's other things in your body that are worse now because it wasn't treated earlier on.
01:07:05.599 -->
01:07:09.119But there are other people in the world that are worse now because it wasn't treated.
01:07:09.199 -->
01:07:09.360Yeah.
01:07:09.519 -->
01:07:16.880You don't went on a uh uh a travel hiatus because the Instagram, you're a travel influencer.
01:07:17.039 -->
01:07:18.719Well, and now you in Greece.
01:07:19.039 -->
01:07:22.960Well, on top of that, you're also supposed to also supposed to protect yourself.
01:07:24.000 -->
01:07:24.960You know people don't.
01:07:25.119 -->
01:07:26.719Well, that's that's also a problem.
01:07:26.960 -->
01:07:27.599You know people don't.
01:07:27.760 -->
01:07:30.480So if you out there all will and taking the plan B.
01:07:30.880 -->
01:07:40.800Well, if you're out there all willing niling doing the thing and ain't protecting yourself, then it is most likely you're gonna come home with something.
01:07:40.960 -->
01:07:42.320You playing with a loaded gun.
01:07:42.400 -->
01:07:42.800Yeah.
01:07:43.199 -->
01:07:46.800So then, I mean, that's that's the risk that you're taking to come home with something.
01:07:47.280 -->
01:07:50.800And either something you can get rid of or something that you can't.
01:07:51.199 -->
01:08:05.360And then your whole it's in your body for a minute, you meet the person that you're in love with, and then is in love with you, and you all of a sudden the moment y'all together propose or husband, wife, and you give him something, and then he don't even know.
01:08:05.840 -->
01:08:08.880That's a good movie, but I'm just saying, He don't even know what.
01:08:09.119 -->
01:08:10.639Oh, because even though you had something.
01:08:10.800 -->
01:08:12.159Yeah, just lying.
01:08:12.239 -->
01:08:16.880Because also what I've noticed, lots of people don't get physicals every year.
01:08:17.039 -->
01:08:17.680Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:08:17.760 -->
01:08:18.399Um, so that's all.
01:08:18.720 -->
01:08:20.880But you also think about a lot of people don't have insurance.
01:08:20.960 -->
01:08:21.199Yeah.
01:08:21.920 -->
01:08:25.680Everybody out there without the insurance because they part-time of or influencing.
01:08:25.920 -->
01:08:33.039Yeah, so because what I found is some of my clients when they come in and we do the intake process and ask, When's the last time you had a physical?
01:08:33.439 -->
01:08:35.600They'd be like, Well, well.
01:08:36.319 -->
01:08:38.319And they don't even know the last time.
01:08:38.479 -->
01:08:39.920It's been two, three years.
01:08:40.079 -->
01:08:48.079And so if that's what you're doing too, then yeah, if you could be sitting up and all kinds of little stuff growing up all inside you.
01:08:48.319 -->
01:08:48.560Yeah.
01:08:48.880 -->
01:08:50.960Impacting other parts of your body.
01:08:51.359 -->
01:08:51.840So yeah.
01:08:52.239 -->
01:08:56.239You over there thinking it's you thinking that, well, I'm allergic to something I've eaten.
01:08:56.640 -->
01:08:57.039Nope.
01:08:57.199 -->
01:08:58.800Then your nuts growing inside.
01:08:58.960 -->
01:08:59.199You got it.
01:09:00.880 -->
01:09:03.199Now you it's a it's a hernia.
01:09:03.279 -->
01:09:04.000Nope.
01:09:04.239 -->
01:09:05.600You got cooties.
01:09:05.680 -->
01:09:07.279Yep, it ain't no hernia.
01:09:07.439 -->
01:09:07.760Mm-mm.
01:09:08.079 -->
01:09:09.439Show like so.
01:09:10.399 -->
01:09:10.880Anyway.
01:09:11.199 -->
01:09:11.439All right.
01:09:11.600 -->
01:09:16.720But that polar, I don't wanna say believe it, sister, for her because I can't believe that happened.
01:09:16.800 -->
01:09:18.560I can't believe that happened, sister.
01:09:19.039 -->
01:09:20.000Believe it, sister.
01:09:20.239 -->
01:09:21.840That show is the truth, baby.
01:09:22.000 -->
01:09:22.960Believe it, sister.
01:09:23.199 -->
01:09:24.720Believe it, sister.
01:09:24.880 -->
01:09:25.840That is so sad.
01:09:25.920 -->
01:09:27.359I feel so bad for that baby.
01:09:27.520 -->
01:09:27.760Yeah.
01:09:27.920 -->
01:09:40.880I mean, but um, I wondered it, I don't won't say that is why it happened, but I wanted it to make her begin to do things differently with such a huge scale.
01:09:41.039 -->
01:09:41.680I hope so.
01:09:42.319 -->
01:09:43.199Huge scare.
01:09:43.439 -->
01:09:48.960Because if she don't do anything differently then, child, you just child, some of these children are so lost.
01:09:49.199 -->
01:09:49.520Yeah.
01:09:49.760 -->
01:09:53.920When I I remember I was in California, and in California, you can actually teach sex ed.
01:09:55.039 -->
01:09:59.680And because we used to have Planned Parenthood, they used to come and show them how to put the condom on.
01:10:00.479 -->
01:10:08.640And so we did a day to say, okay, let's talk about the myths of, you know, of sex, pregnancy and all that stuff.
01:10:08.720 -->
01:10:17.439And so I remember that one person said, they said, if you after you have sex, unprotected sex, if you douche with Dr.
01:10:17.520 -->
01:10:19.039Pepper, yeah.
01:10:19.199 -->
01:10:20.560If they douche with a Dr.
01:10:20.720 -->
01:10:22.640Pepper, you won't get pregnant.
01:10:22.800 -->
01:10:27.840And like sit, lay down, let it sit, then stand up, and then it'll flush everything out.
01:10:28.720 -->
01:10:29.119Yeah.
01:10:29.279 -->
01:10:31.520That was that's what one of the kids said.
01:10:31.680 -->
01:10:34.319So it's little stuff like that, and then they was dead serious.
01:10:34.399 -->
01:10:34.800Mm-hmm.
01:10:34.960 -->
01:10:40.319You know, and so you you hear all these different things, and these kids, you can't, like you say, you can't tell them nothing.
01:10:40.800 -->
01:10:44.079You know, you put on two condoms, and then the lady was like, Okay, let me show you something.
01:10:44.159 -->
01:10:44.960So she had a balloon.
01:10:45.039 -->
01:10:46.319She said, I this is common.
01:10:46.560 -->
01:10:49.359She blew up two balloons, rubbed them together, and they stuck.
01:10:49.760 -->
01:10:51.920She's and she kept on rubbing, and then pop, it popped.
01:10:52.000 -->
01:11:01.439She said, This is the same thing that happened to a condom because the the materials, when they rub together, you know, the friction created causes them to weaken and they can pop easily.
01:11:01.520 -->
01:11:03.039And so it was like, What?
01:11:03.359 -->
01:11:03.920Mm-hmm.
01:11:04.399 -->
01:11:06.960She said, you know, there you go.
01:11:07.279 -->
01:11:07.920Yeah.
01:11:08.319 -->
01:11:12.239And then the ego of people saying, Well, I got a magnum, but you ain't a magnum.
01:11:12.319 -->
01:11:12.560That's right.
01:11:12.720 -->
01:11:13.680And that thing's sneaking right.
01:11:13.920 -->
01:11:14.239Yep.
01:11:14.399 -->
01:11:16.159And next thing you know, you looking for it.
01:11:16.399 -->
01:11:16.880Mm-hmm.
01:11:18.159 -->
01:11:21.039So it's a lot of stuff, but you know.
01:11:21.359 -->
01:11:24.159And that's like now, I know in Georgia we don't do that.
01:11:24.399 -->
01:11:25.920No, it's abstinence only.
01:11:26.000 -->
01:11:27.680You can't say nothing else in Georgia.
01:11:27.760 -->
01:11:28.720It's all absence.
01:11:28.880 -->
01:11:30.800You can't say nothing.
01:11:30.960 -->
01:11:31.760I said, what?
01:11:31.920 -->
01:11:34.800When I first found that out when I was there, he said, nope, you lose your job.
01:11:34.960 -->
01:11:37.039Elizabeth told me that in Clayton.
01:11:37.680 -->
01:11:38.479You lose your job.
01:11:38.560 -->
01:11:39.199I said, what?
01:11:39.520 -->
01:11:40.079Say, yeah.
01:11:40.239 -->
01:11:45.359I said, but I said, Georgia has the highest or the fastest rider.
01:11:45.920 -->
01:11:46.960Elizabeth.
01:11:47.359 -->
01:11:48.800That's with us now in Cobb.
01:11:49.119 -->
01:11:50.319She was in Clayton?
01:11:50.479 -->
01:11:50.640Yeah.
01:11:50.800 -->
01:11:51.359How did I know that?
01:11:51.520 -->
01:11:51.680Yeah.
01:11:51.920 -->
01:11:52.319Okay, go ahead.
01:11:52.479 -->
01:11:52.720Uh-huh.
01:11:52.800 -->
01:11:55.600But she wasn't, she wasn't, and she was like one of the presenters.
01:11:55.840 -->
01:11:56.159Oh, okay.
01:11:56.640 -->
01:11:56.960Uh-huh.
01:11:57.039 -->
01:11:57.119Okay.
01:11:57.359 -->
01:11:57.600Yeah.
01:11:57.680 -->
01:12:00.720And so that's how we knew each other from coming over here.
01:12:01.039 -->
01:12:06.159And so it was um, I said, Georgia is one of the highest.
01:12:06.720 -->
01:12:07.840Especially when we moved here.
01:12:08.319 -->
01:12:11.279You know, it was like one of the highest the fastest growing.
01:12:11.680 -->
01:12:12.079Still high.
01:12:12.239 -->
01:12:13.279Yeah, yeah, still high.
01:12:13.359 -->
01:12:20.640But it was the fastest uh, I guess saying rising, or just it was cases were happening faster in Georgia than anywhere else.
01:12:20.800 -->
01:12:22.399It's like all the time.
01:12:22.960 -->
01:12:25.920And so I was like, so what do y'all and some people say, bro?
01:12:26.079 -->
01:12:28.560They ain't worried about it because until it looks like them.
01:12:28.720 -->
01:12:29.119Mm-hmm.
01:12:29.680 -->
01:12:31.119I said, Oh, I get it.
01:12:31.760 -->
01:12:33.760I forgot where, you know, I'm from the South.
01:12:33.840 -->
01:12:36.319I've been away from the South, I guess, five years.
01:12:36.479 -->
01:12:37.520I lost my soul.
01:12:37.760 -->
01:12:38.079Yeah.
01:12:38.399 -->
01:12:40.000But parents need to teach it.
01:12:40.239 -->
01:12:41.520Yeah, you gotta talk to them about it.
01:12:41.680 -->
01:12:42.640Gotta talk to them about it.
01:12:42.720 -->
01:12:43.439Don't think they're not.
01:12:44.000 -->
01:12:44.800At one time, yeah.
01:12:45.119 -->
01:12:48.239For them to be prepared and not just for babies.
01:12:48.399 -->
01:12:49.119Oh, they doing it.
01:12:49.199 -->
01:12:50.399They're doing it early now, y'all.
01:12:50.720 -->
01:12:51.520Not just for babies.
01:12:51.600 -->
01:12:52.479I think we all know that.
01:12:52.640 -->
01:12:53.119They doing it.
01:12:53.199 -->
01:12:54.800I'm creepy.
01:12:54.960 -->
01:12:55.600I know it.
01:12:55.840 -->
01:13:00.720They're doing stuff that married couples are waiting to do.
01:13:01.359 -->
01:13:02.399You know what I'm saying?
01:13:02.479 -->
01:13:02.960Yeah.
01:13:03.359 -->
01:13:06.000These kids are off the chain.
01:13:06.239 -->
01:13:07.039So it's important.
01:13:07.119 -->
01:13:08.239You guys need to talk to them.
01:13:08.319 -->
01:13:20.720They have so much the opportunity to be exposed to so many things online that you don't need to just think, oh, not my baby.
01:13:21.359 -->
01:13:28.159But just to make them aware and how to be cautious and all those things.
01:13:28.720 -->
01:13:31.199Just to give them other decisions they can make.
01:13:31.279 -->
01:13:31.680Yeah.
01:13:31.920 -->
01:13:32.720That's the key.
01:13:32.800 -->
01:13:33.039You know?
01:13:33.119 -->
01:13:33.279Yeah.
01:13:33.600 -->
01:13:38.960If they ever in that situation, if they ever are in a situation, they have to make a decision.
01:13:39.279 -->
01:13:42.239Please assist them with an educated decision.
01:13:42.479 -->
01:13:47.439I love that on The Shy, this last season of The Shy, they showed the dad talking to his son.
01:13:47.680 -->
01:13:48.880I think he was middle school.
01:13:48.960 -->
01:13:49.119Yeah.
01:13:49.760 -->
01:13:52.960Talking to him about sex and their whole little talk about it.
01:13:53.119 -->
01:13:56.880And just even talking about let first learn your own body.
01:13:57.119 -->
01:13:58.880Fit fulfill your own.
01:13:59.039 -->
01:14:10.640What do you know what it feels for you instead of trying to be out there and do it with somebody else and even for the young ladies, like you know, you don't have to make a whole episode of that.
01:14:10.800 -->
01:14:11.359Maybe next week.
01:14:13.680 -->
01:14:14.640Yeah, it can long.
01:14:14.960 -->
01:14:16.000But it is a great one.
01:14:16.159 -->
01:14:17.920Yeah, so El Nashada did a great job.
01:14:18.000 -->
01:14:22.000But parents, yeah, talk to your children so that um put that in your notes.
01:14:22.159 -->
01:14:29.600Yeah, so that you know, you won't have a believer sister and and your child won't actually have a positive, positive.
01:14:30.880 -->
01:14:33.119So that'll be so sad.
01:14:33.520 -->
01:14:33.840Yeah.
01:14:33.920 -->
01:14:34.159Yeah.

01:18:01.359 -->
01:18:01.680Yeah.
01:18:02.319 -->
01:18:05.920Um I'm tired of us not having something planned for us.

01:18:09.119So I'm looking forward to maybe having something planned for us.
01:18:09.359 -->
01:18:10.960Because everything's just always in time.
01:18:11.199 -->

01:18:41.520And I know we have things going, but it is still possible.
01:18:41.760 -->
01:18:47.600And when I bet you won't be saying that next year.
01:18:48.000 -->

01:19:13.359Something happened.
01:19:15.119 -->
01:19:16.800Don't be looking at me.
01:19:17.760 -->
01:19:18.479Looking at you.
01:19:18.800 -->
01:19:19.119No.
01:19:19.520 -->
01:19:23.920And I'm not gonna put you go on and say what you're looking forward to.
01:19:24.560 -->
01:19:25.680We'll talk later.
01:19:29.520 -->
01:19:31.199I ain't looking forward to none then.
01:19:31.359 -->
01:19:32.479If that's the case.
01:19:33.119 -->
01:19:35.600So, ladies and gentlemen.
01:19:36.880 -->
01:19:42.159Now I'm gonna go ahead and for because somebody in that world is looking forward to me looking forward to something.
01:19:42.800 -->
01:19:47.119So, what I'm looking forward to is trying to figure out what I can do about this camera.
01:19:47.199 -->
01:19:48.560Why is it tripping?
01:19:48.960 -->
01:19:50.079But we get it right.
01:19:52.079 -->
01:19:53.279That's what I'm looking forward to.
01:19:53.359 -->
01:19:57.840I'm looking forward to, you know me, because now my mind is like I g I can't let it sit.
01:19:58.079 -->
01:19:58.319Yeah.
01:19:58.560 -->
01:20:01.359Like that was that thing not perfect about Virgos?
01:20:02.079 -->
01:20:03.039Yeah, it's perfect.
01:20:03.359 -->
01:20:08.239When it said even your clutter, I know where everything is in my pile of clutter.
01:20:09.520 -->
01:20:10.239Maybe.
01:20:14.079 -->
01:20:16.239But you're gonna tell me I don't know what's in there.
01:20:17.039 -->
01:20:18.000You know what's in there?
01:20:18.159 -->
01:20:18.479Yes.
01:20:18.640 -->
01:20:19.600We're gonna do a test.
01:20:19.760 -->
01:20:24.239I'm gonna I'm gonna get a pile and I'ma say, what is in this pile?
01:20:24.560 -->
01:20:26.800You can't necessarily say what's in there.
01:20:26.960 -->
01:20:29.680What you have to say is, like when you need something.
01:20:29.840 -->
01:20:30.720Okay, they're perfect.
01:20:31.279 -->
01:20:39.680When you need stuff around here, what percentage of the time do I normally have something for that?
01:20:41.119 -->
01:20:42.000When we need something.
01:20:42.399 -->
01:20:43.199But that wasn't the question.
01:20:43.439 -->
01:20:44.560When we need something, that wasn't the question.
01:20:44.800 -->
01:20:47.520No, listen, because normally that stuff is in a pile.
01:20:47.680 -->
01:20:49.439It's not necessarily in an organized pile.
01:20:49.760 -->
01:20:50.319It's in a pile.
01:20:50.640 -->
01:20:54.479It is, but you gotta go through all the piles before you find it.
01:20:54.720 -->
01:20:57.119So the thing is, it's in a pile.
01:20:57.359 -->
01:21:11.760But what you just said you know was in the piles, not necessarily, because you got to go through about five to ten piles before you find the thing.
01:21:12.079 -->
01:21:15.199Can you blindly find anything in your um closet?
01:21:15.359 -->
01:21:15.680No.
01:21:15.920 -->
01:21:17.520No, no, I don't need to.
01:21:17.600 -->
01:21:18.319No, that's not in there.
01:21:18.479 -->
01:21:21.359That's what the cloud, my my piles is like a closet.
01:21:21.520 -->
01:21:23.279Okay, we're gonna leave it right there.
01:21:24.319 -->
01:21:25.920I know it's in there.
01:21:27.840 -->
01:21:30.319Like the pile right here on the s by the bed.
01:21:30.479 -->
01:21:32.000Those are my cords.
01:21:35.680 -->
01:21:37.439Those are my phone pieces.
01:21:38.239 -->
01:21:40.960What other pile do you want me to figure out?
01:21:42.800 -->
01:21:43.920My shoe pile?
01:21:44.640 -->
01:21:45.920I know all my shoes.
01:21:46.079 -->
01:21:49.680And if something happens, do I know what I oh me and my stuff?
01:21:50.239 -->
01:21:51.199I know that.
01:21:53.199 -->
01:21:53.520See?
01:21:53.840 -->
01:21:54.720She knows I know.
01:21:54.800 -->
01:21:55.840That's why she ain't saying that.
01:21:56.239 -->
01:21:56.560Listen.
01:21:56.880 -->
01:21:58.159So, ladies and gentlemen.
01:21:58.479 -->
01:22:01.920I'm not arguing with foolishness, so you ain't gotta argue.
01:22:02.239 -->
01:22:02.960Exactly.
01:22:03.199 -->
01:22:04.239You ain't gotta argue.
01:22:04.479 -->
01:22:12.399And I ain't right, don't never argue with left.
01:22:12.640 -->
01:22:13.520That's right.
01:22:17.760 -->
01:22:22.399So I'm just letting you know, right, don't never argue with left.
01:22:22.560 -->
01:22:22.960All right.
01:22:23.119 -->
01:22:24.720Bye-bye, everybody.
01:22:24.960 -->
01:22:33.119So, ladies and gentlemen, when we come back next week, um, we're gonna have some first week of school stories.
01:22:33.760 -->
01:22:44.000And um I wanted to give parents a tip for the first day of school or or whatever, you know, because some parents, this is your child's first time going to school, being around human beings.
01:22:44.319 -->
01:22:51.199My biggest tip is if they crying, drop them off, leave.
01:22:51.600 -->
01:22:52.560Who the parents?
01:22:52.800 -->
01:22:53.119Yes.
01:22:53.279 -->
01:22:55.199No, you're saying because the parents are gonna be crying.
01:22:55.439 -->
01:22:55.760No.
01:22:56.880 -->
01:22:59.439We had a lady crying up at our school for the B degree.
01:22:59.920 -->
01:23:04.640Yeah, the parents, they the kids are crying, and they think they can say anything to console them.
01:23:04.720 -->
01:23:07.840And there's nothing you can say, it just makes it worse.
01:23:08.239 -->
01:23:11.520And so what it is best for you just to walk away.
01:23:11.600 -->
01:23:16.000There is somebody in that building that will make sure they're okay.
01:23:16.159 -->
01:23:25.039And nine times out of ten, within 30 minutes or less, they are fine.
01:23:25.279 -->
01:23:30.159And within an hour, they up smiling, having the best time in their classroom.
01:23:30.720 -->
01:23:32.960So, yeah, don't worry.
01:23:33.119 -->
01:23:39.439Just get in there and let them go because the longer you stay there, it's gonna be the hard the hard, it's gonna make it harder.
01:23:39.920 -->
01:23:40.399So that's my tip.
01:23:42.960 -->
01:23:43.600That's my tip.
01:23:44.159 -->
01:23:46.159If they cry longer than that, it's something else.
01:23:46.399 -->
01:23:47.439Oh goodness.
01:23:49.600 -->
01:23:51.199It's something else, they cry longer.
01:23:51.439 -->
01:23:52.479Yeah, some of them are.
01:23:52.640 -->
01:23:55.520Some of them, some like I saw a little boy at the grocery story today.
01:23:55.760 -->
01:23:58.800He was not listening to his daddy, his daddy tried to get him to kind of go this way.
01:23:58.960 -->
01:24:01.199He ripped from him, and then he went.
01:24:01.359 -->
01:24:11.279I came back after I got the washing detergent, and he got this uh Spider-Man sucker, and then just put it on the um checkout thing.
01:24:11.439 -->
01:24:12.720And dad bought it, showed it.
01:24:12.880 -->
01:24:14.000See that we are okay.
01:24:14.159 -->
01:24:16.640And so when he's he's capable of doing that.
01:24:16.880 -->
01:24:22.640When he goes to school, he's gonna be the one that as soon as he hears no, he's falling out on the floor.
01:24:22.960 -->
01:24:26.479So you yeah, that I said, oh no, dad.
01:24:26.800 -->
01:24:30.079So he pushed, you know, what we supposed to do in the store.
01:24:30.159 -->
01:24:31.199I know you don't get no spotted.
01:24:31.680 -->
01:24:32.640No, you don't get nothing.
01:24:32.800 -->
01:24:33.760You don't get anything.
01:24:33.920 -->
01:24:36.000But the daddy let him get it checked out.
01:24:36.159 -->
01:24:44.479And I know you're doing that to save a uh uh in the store, but guess what?
01:24:45.439 -->
01:24:47.680It's gonna be hard for that baby in school.
01:24:47.920 -->
01:24:48.720I know that's right.
01:24:48.880 -->
01:24:53.920So, anyways, that's let if they cry, they'll be fine.
01:24:54.319 -->
01:24:59.840And it's okay to say no to your children, they will be fine.
01:25:00.800 -->
01:25:01.680It's okay.
01:25:01.920 -->
01:25:02.720Mm-hmm.
01:25:03.359 -->
01:25:04.479It's okay.
01:25:04.880 -->
