WEBVTT
1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.879
And I think that's important for everybody to hear, Like,
2
00:00:02.919 --> 00:00:05.320
you should not be sitting around waiting for anybody, right,
3
00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:06.480
I mean, well, and.
4
00:00:06.919 --> 00:00:09.960
People do that romantic relationships too. I can't think of
5
00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:12.080
like one of the big things I tried to change
6
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:15.560
about myself going into law school was not waiting for
7
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:17.559
somebody to want to do the same thing as me
8
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:20.039
to go out and do it, because I think there's
9
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:22.160
a lot of experiences in New York that I didn't
10
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.239
end up doing simply because I couldn't find somebody that
11
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:27.920
wanted to do it with me. But now it's just like, oh, well,
12
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:29.320
if I had said I was doing it, I'm sure
13
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:31.399
somebody would have he would have wanted to come along
14
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:33.280
or be it would have made somebody like met somebody
15
00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:34.320
there that I'd be you know.
16
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:37.200
Yeah, I mean I think that is really key, is
17
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:39.880
do the things you want to do right, do it
18
00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:42.560
by yourself. I know plenty of people who travel by
19
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:44.920
themselves all the time. Well, I know, and that's so,
20
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:48.159
you know, because you're doing something you want to do
21
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:50.679
where a lot of people wait for something to happen,
22
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:53.880
it's not going to happen, no, I mean, yeah, it's
23
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:56.320
like waiting for someone to change. It's not going to happen.
24
00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:58.520
So you got to do the things that make you
25
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:01.679
happy and got to do the things you want to do. Yeah,
26
00:01:01.799 --> 00:01:05.760
welcome to her unshakeable confidence. I'm Simone Canego and.
27
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:06.799
I'm Olivia Canego.
28
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.760
Each week we have honest conversations about confidence, self doubt,
29
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:13.079
and the moments in life that shape who we become.
30
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:15.599
Some weeks we talk with inspiring guests.
31
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.519
In other weeks, it's just the two of us sharing
32
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:19.079
what we're.
33
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:20.040
Learning along the way.
34
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:23.280
So pull up a chair and join the conversation.
35
00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:26.120
This is her unshakable confidence.
36
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:31.280
Welcome to her unshakeable confidence. I'm Simone Canego and I'm
37
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:34.599
Olivia Canego. And this week we're going to be talking
38
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:41.799
about relationships of some sort kind of more like dynamics, dynamics,
39
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:43.840
all of dynamics in general.
40
00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:46.959
Yeah, because I think I'm at the part of my
41
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:50.840
life now where it went from your add experiences. And
42
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:54.560
you'll guarantee you make friends through like you know, school,
43
00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:59.840
summer camp, internships and not not that internships are guaranteed,
44
00:01:59.879 --> 00:02:02.480
but like some of the internship programs are. And now
45
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:04.760
I'm transitioning to the adult world where you actually have
46
00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:07.640
to like put an effort to find friends.
47
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:11.000
Yeah, and you're not wrong, they're like a lot of
48
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:15.199
it though, comes naturally once you get into different situations,
49
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:17.840
like your sister in law. In law and I were
50
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:21.680
talking about, like she's going to start a program like
51
00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:25.960
a mommy and Me program in September, I think September.
52
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:28.199
We like because it's a great way so you meet
53
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:32.879
other moms and right right, right, and people decide, you know,
54
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:35.919
wave of life as view, Yeah, for sure, I mean
55
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:39.520
it is. It makes a lot of sense that a
56
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:42.759
lot of the friends that I have today are friends
57
00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:45.680
that I made when you guys were really little, right.
58
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:47.960
And even if you're not, like we're not friends, like
59
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:49.919
their kids aren't like friends anymore.
60
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:55.560
Yeah, I mean everybody knows each other, right, so, but yeah,
61
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:59.080
it is interesting, like where do you find your friends?
62
00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:02.080
And sometimes I think the most interesting thing for me
63
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:06.560
is that when your dad and I were younger, we
64
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:10.039
were always going out all the time with other people,
65
00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:12.039
you know, and we still it's not that we don't,
66
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.919
but there's something to be said for just hanging out
67
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:17.159
together now, right.
68
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:21.199
Yeah, wait, I actually was dressed on the phone with
69
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.919
Jack obviously, because what else do I do with my
70
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:27.039
my time living by myself? But I was just thinking
71
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:31.639
that because I've actually had to like push myself a
72
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:33.879
lot harder this summer. But if he was just here,
73
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:38.800
I probably wouldn't. Yeah, it is interesting, right, right, And
74
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:43.439
I am like a naturally social person obviously, obviously it
75
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:45.120
only you know, it only took me twenty three years
76
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:50.000
to figure out that I'm actually extroverted. But I think
77
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.240
that the level of comfort you get from like being
78
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.439
with your long term partners, like, Oh, like, I don't
79
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:57.080
know if I want to do like the what do
80
00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:01.680
they call those like dating five minute dating things? What
81
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:02.479
do you call it?
82
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:03.120
Speed dating?
83
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:03.719
Ah?
84
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:05.199
Yeah, I don't know if I want to do the
85
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.319
speed dating for friends when I just already have like
86
00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:08.680
my best friend living at home with me.
87
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:12.400
Yeah, but it is nice to kind of like expand
88
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:13.280
that I know.
89
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:16.079
And obviously this summer, like I haven't been the best
90
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:19.959
at it, mostly because I'm like, Okay, there's like an
91
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.680
end date on this, and I do I want to
92
00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:25.879
spend my limited weekends making friends that I know? That's
93
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:26.920
such a bad mindset.
94
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.600
No, you can't know it like that relationships last forever.
95
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:32.560
Right, right, and it's it's not I don't know.
96
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:35.560
Yeah, I think you have to think about it differently because,
97
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.759
I mean, people you never know when people you meet
98
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:40.680
at some point are going to come back into your life, mean,
99
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:42.800
or the connection you're going to keep with that, right,
100
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:44.319
Relationships always matter.
101
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:46.959
I had like such a small world moment on Saturday.
102
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:50.920
We went out actually with one of your friend's kids me, like,
103
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.040
and just you know her friends like I know them
104
00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:57.439
or like I know them through people. Yeah, just another
105
00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:00.360
binder of always treat people with kindness and show up
106
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:02.519
with your best version of you because you never know
107
00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:08.279
your reputation that's going around. Interesting, Oh mine's not bad. No,
108
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:10.319
it was just like one of those things that I
109
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:15.480
was thinking about. It's like, just like the way connections work,
110
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:17.759
especially with social media now, It's like I can see
111
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:20.519
that two people that I would have never thought knew
112
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:23.279
each other somehow follow each other on Instagram, right, and
113
00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:25.879
it's like, do they even know that they both know me?
114
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:28.079
Right?
115
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:28.279
Not?
116
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.639
No, one's as nosy as I am. But my point
117
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:34.439
there being like show up as the best version of
118
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:36.399
yourself all the time.
119
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:41.000
Yeah, I mean I think also that the relationship part
120
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:44.839
is huge because I think what you just said was
121
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:49.759
that idea of that these people like do I put
122
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:53.399
the effort in because but you always you should always
123
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:55.120
put the effort in because you never know where it's
124
00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:57.639
going to go. I mean you could say that about college,
125
00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:00.000
that if people are being in college, it's a temporary
126
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.639
everything and you don't know. I mean, you know, you
127
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:05.560
have friends forever because of that.
128
00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:10.519
I think right now I'm just in a particularly weird
129
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:13.800
spot in life.
130
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.560
So I do think that you have to think about
131
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:23.040
every relationship because you never know. And there's so many honestly,
132
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:25.439
there's so many keynote speakers now that talk about the
133
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:30.879
power of relationships and rich relationships and all these different things,
134
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:35.399
because you want to have those relationships before you need.
135
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:38.560
Them, agreed. I mean, like that's a big concept. I
136
00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:40.439
feel like I see on Instagram all the time that
137
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:42.839
everybody wants a village, but nobody wants to put in
138
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:45.439
the work of having a village. It's like, you can't
139
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.800
just expect people to do things for you if you're
140
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:52.000
not going to do them for them. Kind of mentality.
141
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:55.120
Yeah, don't ask for something if you've never offered to
142
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:59.199
do anything before, right, right, so right, And.
143
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.519
I mean like that goes back to highlighting the importance
144
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:04.600
of relationships. It's just so weird as a young adult
145
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:08.720
making friends also like the first time in my life
146
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:13.240
that people my friends are not just my age. Yeah.
147
00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.480
I think that's a big difference too, is that when
148
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:20.360
you when you're not meeting people within a classroom setting
149
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:22.839
or your grade or whatever you want to call it,
150
00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:27.079
you know, you definitely have a big, you know, array
151
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:30.160
of people that you meet that they don't have to
152
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:31.120
be the same age.
153
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:33.199
Right, it's not even and it goes beyond like the
154
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.000
same age. It's the same like kind of upbringing and
155
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:39.279
same background in general. And I feel like we all
156
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:42.639
kind of get into our paths of life, whether you
157
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:44.680
go to college, whether you don't go to college, whether
158
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:46.759
you go to trade school, et cetera, and you stick
159
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:48.560
with this group of people. But at least for me,
160
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.879
this is the first time like stepping outside of you know,
161
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:58.839
the academic area, academic arena, that you're really meeting people
162
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:01.040
from all sorts of backgrounds. And that's like an additional
163
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:05.399
layer to navigate, not necessarily a bad layer at all.
164
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:07.879
Like it's kind of cool having friends that are way
165
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.959
older and way younger than you. But it's just like
166
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.399
an additional thing to think about.
167
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.279
Well, you know, it's interesting you said that. So when
168
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:23.439
I joined I joined National Young Leadership Cabinet whatever year.
169
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:30.439
That was twenty thirteen, and the first event I went to,
170
00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:34.000
I stayed by myself because I really didn't know anybody.
171
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:37.879
And then I started talking to the person who was
172
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:42.919
basically our orientation leader, and I said, you know, for
173
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:46.600
next year or for our trip, like our mission trip.
174
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:48.799
I said, I, you know, i'd love to find a roommate.
175
00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:51.360
What's the best way to do it. She goes, well,
176
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:54.720
I'd love to be your roommate. And I was like, wait, what,
177
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:58.759
Like you're you're in a you know, two classes above me.
178
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:00.559
How does that work? You know, because I was so
179
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:05.320
used to your rank. Yeah, yeah, and that's not real life.
180
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:07.120
No, it's not real life at all.
181
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:09.399
From all different.
182
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:12.759
So even in law school, like you know, it's not
183
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:16.240
that I'm actively trying to avoid making friends with the
184
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:18.519
people in the grades below me. It's just that I
185
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:21.679
haven't had the opportunity to do so. So now it's
186
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:23.960
like when I see people that's like, oh, like my
187
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:25.840
best friend is a class below me, and I'm like,
188
00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:30.200
how how how did you even accomplish that? But when
189
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:32.519
you enter the real world, it's like, yeah, like my
190
00:09:32.600 --> 00:09:34.720
co worker is fifty something years old and he's my
191
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:36.440
best friend that I talked to every single day.
192
00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:39.639
Yeah, I mean you you might be you know, what
193
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:41.600
we talked about before is you might be attracted to
194
00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:47.080
or connect with people that are in the same stage
195
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:50.600
of life as you. But sometimes that's not true at all, right,
196
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:52.320
and that's great.
197
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:53.879
Well, and that's one of the things I kind of
198
00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:55.759
think I learned in college a little bit. It's just
199
00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:58.279
that someone being the same age as you does not
200
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:01.679
mean they're in the same set of life as you.
201
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:05.679
And also maybe not the same maturity level.
202
00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:07.399
I think that's that's what I was at the same
203
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:08.399
maturity level.
204
00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:09.320
Yeah, what I was.
205
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:10.159
Trying to but.
206
00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:12.879
I don't know.
207
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:14.879
I mean, like, I'm working on it. It's getting better
208
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:19.519
speaking friends, yeah, but it's just a it's a.
209
00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:26.240
It's hard for everybody. Yeah, the most outgoing people. It's
210
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:31.120
finding that deep friendship that I don't think you find
211
00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:34.840
it as often as people think, right.
212
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:37.080
And I am a kind of person that I realized
213
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.480
this recently, Like and it's something I'm really trying to
214
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.360
work on is prior to probably this year, I didn't
215
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:47.600
have acquaintances. I only had to like either I knew you,
216
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:51.039
I didn't know you, or you're my best friend. Like,
217
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:53.519
I had no casual friends. And I'm really trying to
218
00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:56.000
work on this idea of a casual friend. Like, you know,
219
00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:59.279
you don't need to fundamentally get along with everybody on
220
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.559
every issue to be you know, friends with them, or
221
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:04.600
go to a new restaurant or you know, do an
222
00:11:04.639 --> 00:11:07.519
activity together. You just need to like like them enough
223
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:10.559
to spend three to four hours with them. And that's
224
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.360
like an additional layer of relationships that I'm working on.
225
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:16.000
Yeah, I mean you learn something from everybody you meet.
226
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:19.720
And you know, there's definitely people that will go out
227
00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:21.919
to dinner with, but we're not calling them all of
228
00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:24.759
the time. Right Again, life is so busy that it's
229
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:25.320
hard to do.
230
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:29.440
Yeah, And that's another thing that I'm realizing is that that's
231
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:34.600
the beauty of casual friendships is that, like everybody is
232
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:38.279
so busy in life that it's easier to keep these
233
00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:40.840
relationships together because the expectations aren't so hot.
234
00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:42.679
I was gonna say no expectations.
235
00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:44.879
Right, Yeah, it's like, if I see you for dinner, great.
236
00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:46.759
If I don't see you for dinner, oh, we'll catch
237
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:47.559
up at the next event.
238
00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:50.480
Okay, I watched this crazy movie the other day.
239
00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:52.399
Which one are you gonna say? Obsession?
240
00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:59.000
No, maternal instincts. Have you watched it? It's a documentary?
241
00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:01.279
Okay, Oh I'm shocked. Have it actually? Because I love
242
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:02.360
my weird docus.
243
00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:05.919
Oh yeah, you need to watch it, so I guess
244
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:10.559
I can't really give it away. But anyways, the the well,
245
00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:12.919
everybody knows the story because it's well you might not
246
00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:15.080
know the story, but it's you know, it was on
247
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:20.559
the news. So basically, this woman she kind of created
248
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:25.320
this friendship with this other woman and she ends up
249
00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:30.000
stealing her not even born baby.
250
00:12:30.799 --> 00:12:32.200
Yeah yeah, okay.
251
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:38.720
So when I say that deep friendships sometimes are harder
252
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:41.200
to come by, you also have to be very careful
253
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:43.480
you invite into your circle.
254
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:50.039
That obviously it was intent at all, But since I have,
255
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:52.399
you know, had been like the kind of person and
256
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:54.559
I realized how off putting it can be. I'm the
257
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:56.120
kind of person that goes from like zero to one
258
00:12:56.159 --> 00:12:58.320
hundred and friendships really fast and it's bit me in
259
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:00.360
the butt so many times. Obviously not to the point
260
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:02.360
where I'm having somebody come over to my house. It's
261
00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:04.159
still my unborn child out of my womb.
262
00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:06.960
But do you remember the night we were at the
263
00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:09.879
bar and you made besties with that one girl at
264
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:12.799
the bar and like, yeah, you know, yeah, see I
265
00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:15.399
need to say thing like your future And then like
266
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:18.440
I used to start doing what was I thinking?
267
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:21.600
Like that's what I'm saying, Like I got it's something hilarious.
268
00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:24.039
But I'm really personable.
269
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:24.759
What can I say?
270
00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:31.159
Yeah? And again, casual friendships are great, and you know
271
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:36.080
you save the deep friendships for the few people. And
272
00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:40.480
actually the deep friendship thing is like, let me clarify
273
00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:43.240
that it's someone that you can pick up with, you know,
274
00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:47.639
wherever you left off, and I still don't need that constant,
275
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:49.799
but it's like someone that you've known for a really
276
00:13:49.840 --> 00:13:50.240
long time.
277
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:53.240
Do you think the friendships require the constant And that's
278
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:55.320
why it's easier when you're younger. I mean like, yeah,
279
00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:57.360
one of your best friends is from college, when you
280
00:13:57.399 --> 00:13:59.080
had the same time one of my best friends is
281
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:01.720
from college. When you have the time to really work
282
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:06.559
on those like super formative relationships. But now it's like, Okay,
283
00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:08.919
I work nine to six, takes me thirty minutes to
284
00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:10.960
get to work, thirty minutes to get home. The last
285
00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:12.559
thing I want to do on a like a week
286
00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:14.399
night is go and do anything.
287
00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:20.120
Yeah. And I think also the hard, hard thing is
288
00:14:21.279 --> 00:14:25.720
when you're in a relationship, like you know, a long
289
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:29.879
term relationship with somebody, like you do want to spend
290
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:31.639
your time with them. And then if you have friends
291
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:33.960
that don't necessarily get along with them, or they're not
292
00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:37.600
like sometimes they're just not compatible, right, So it's not
293
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:40.879
like you'll do everything together. I think you're very fortunate
294
00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:46.360
in that in your relationship you he I don't want
295
00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:48.200
to say puts up with, but he's totally fine when
296
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.639
you go out with your friends, right, And that's great
297
00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:53.679
and the same for me, And I think that's an
298
00:14:53.679 --> 00:14:57.120
important thing that you can have that time wherever.
299
00:14:56.919 --> 00:14:57.799
You're not dependent.
300
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:04.759
Yeah, because you know, as life changes, I mean especially
301
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:07.679
for me, your dad was working so much, so I
302
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:09.559
needed to be able to figure out, Okay, what do
303
00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:12.200
I do when he's not home, Like I don't want
304
00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:15.440
to be sitting around waiting for anybody. Yeah, And I
305
00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:18.200
think that's important for everybody to hear, Like, you should
306
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:21.720
not be sitting around waiting for anybody, right, I mean, well, and.
307
00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:24.600
That does people do the romantic relationships too. I can't
308
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:26.840
think of like one of the big things I tried
309
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.840
to change about myself going into law school was not
310
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:32.679
waiting for somebody to want to do the same thing
311
00:15:32.679 --> 00:15:35.039
as me, to go out and do it, because I
312
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:37.120
think there's a lot of experiences in New York that
313
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:40.639
I didn't end up doing simply because I couldn't find
314
00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:42.840
somebody that wanted to do it with me. But now
315
00:15:42.840 --> 00:15:44.519
it's just like, oh well, if I had said I
316
00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:46.480
was doing it, I'm sure somebody would have he would
317
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:48.039
have wanted to come along, or be I would have
318
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.399
made somebody, like met somebody there that i'd be you know.
319
00:15:51.720 --> 00:15:54.720
Yeah, I mean I think that is really key is
320
00:15:55.279 --> 00:15:58.399
do the things you want to do right, do it
321
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:01.320
by yourself. I know any of people who travel by
322
00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:04.080
themselves all the time. Oh I know, And that's so great,
323
00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:07.159
you know, because you're doing something you want to do
324
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.240
where a lot of people wait for something to happen,
325
00:16:10.639 --> 00:16:14.600
it's not going to happen nor and I Yeah, it's
326
00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:17.200
like waiting for someone to change. It's not going to happen.
327
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:19.720
So you got to do the things that make you
328
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:21.679
happy and got to do the things you want to do.
329
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:27.840
Yeah, but growing up is so scary, Like it's scary,
330
00:16:27.960 --> 00:16:32.960
you know. Yeah, you have the normal changes of like Okay,
331
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:35.559
obviously all of these are hypothetical because I'm so very
332
00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:38.279
dependent on my parents. But like you have the normal
333
00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:40.720
changes of like Okay, I have to support myself. I
334
00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:44.639
have to figure out a job. I have to you know, figure.
335
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:45.600
Out for my cell phone plan.
336
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:48.559
Yeah, health insurance, go to the doctor, book, all these
337
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:50.519
things about yourself. But then the things that you think
338
00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:53.919
are so constant, like your ability to make friends, that
339
00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:58.279
also changes. And I think that's something people don't talk about, like, yeah,
340
00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:00.879
adult relationships are different, but what that actually mean?
341
00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:08.599
Yeah, and it's different for every person though too. So
342
00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:12.240
I mean, like I could say, yes, adult relationships are different,
343
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:17.720
and sometimes they're not. Like, you know, I have a
344
00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:21.240
girlfriend group. We do and it's it's such a cool Again,
345
00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:23.400
this is like one of those cool things. I didn't
346
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:25.599
get to go this year because I was up here
347
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:28.000
with the baby, which is where I am right now.
348
00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:33.119
I was up in DC, but they we've done a
349
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:38.559
girls trip for eighteen years. I don't know how many
350
00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:44.079
years really really maybe more than that, and now it's
351
00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:45.839
more of a core group. It used to be much
352
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:48.839
bigger and now it's been the same people for the
353
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:52.480
last however many years. And it's a really cool thing
354
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:55.960
because watching our evolution of we used to go and
355
00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:57.960
we used to go to bars all the time. And
356
00:17:58.000 --> 00:18:01.240
this year they rented a a beach house and just
357
00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:03.680
hung out and talked and sway them And of course
358
00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:08.599
I wasn't there, but it looked amazing and like, well.
359
00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:12.240
I felt that this with my best friend visiting this weekend. Yes,
360
00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:15.720
I was like, oh my god, Like we're old. We
361
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:19.000
didn't The latest we stayed out was like eleven thirty
362
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:23.960
and for us, that's like that's you know, like less
363
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:25.240
than our college heydays.
364
00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:26.440
Was insane.
365
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:28.839
But I guess that's that's also the cool part about
366
00:18:28.839 --> 00:18:31.359
adult friendships. The ones that lost are like the people
367
00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:32.400
that you grow with too.
368
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:35.759
And also you don't feel like you're missing anything, right,
369
00:18:35.880 --> 00:18:39.680
you realize that, like, Okay, what I wanted from this
370
00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:41.680
evening was to hang out with this person. It's not
371
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.000
about going to a bar. And any of that stuff.
372
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:47.559
And so I think that's the cool thing about as
373
00:18:47.599 --> 00:18:52.799
relationships grow like that that I want to say deepness,
374
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:55.759
but that just sounds weird. But you know that depth that's.
375
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:57.319
The way that's that's way better.
376
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:01.559
Yeah, the depth to the relationship isn't about okay, you know,
377
00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:04.000
how like can we stay up and we're gonna get
378
00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:04.799
right wasted?
379
00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:08.079
And how much like things change within I don't know,
380
00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:11.079
two to three years. It's that's why you know you're
381
00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:14.319
you're sixteen to like twenty six. It feels like feel
382
00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:16.240
like the most formative years and I'm not even two
383
00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:18.759
twenty six yet. The most formative years of my life
384
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:21.960
I've been sixteen to right now, because I have experienced
385
00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:27.599
the most growth between even like month by month, I.
386
00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:31.160
Mean, hallo. I mean I got married at twenty one,
387
00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:34.000
I had your brother at twenty four, right, I mean,
388
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:38.880
so you when you think about that, how much growth
389
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:42.960
I had as a human and how I had no
390
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:46.960
clue what I was doing, I'm amazed like that it
391
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:50.599
all worked out. I mean it does. But like I
392
00:19:50.680 --> 00:19:56.039
look at your oldest well your older brother because he's
393
00:19:56.079 --> 00:20:02.119
the oldest of you know, and watching them race their baby,
394
00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:03.440
and but.
395
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:05.720
Also yeah, I'm looking at his how his life has
396
00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:08.920
changed so much in the last five years.
397
00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:14.880
Yeah, I mean married, baby, new city, new job, new friends,
398
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:20.000
new everything. Right, I mean, so life is all about change.
399
00:20:20.039 --> 00:20:26.799
I actually wrote about it. My last blog article was
400
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:32.160
about instead of so often we're told to brace for change,
401
00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:36.759
and I truly believe it's about embracing change, like right,
402
00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:40.720
because change is going to happen all the time, and
403
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:42.839
it's really figuring out what you want from it instead
404
00:20:42.839 --> 00:20:44.079
of saying, oh my god, this is going to be
405
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:46.119
bad or I don't know what to do next. And
406
00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:49.880
I mean that's a big part of making friends is saying, Okay,
407
00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:50.880
what do I want?
408
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:53.799
You know what, I'm realizing that nobody knows what they're
409
00:20:53.799 --> 00:20:55.440
freaking doing in any aspect.
410
00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:56.920
That's so true.
411
00:20:57.039 --> 00:20:59.160
Nobody ever knows what they're doing. And if you just
412
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:00.160
like play it off your.
413
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:05.920
Fine, you're fuddy. Yeah it's true. I mean, it's the
414
00:21:05.960 --> 00:21:09.519
biggest when you ask that question, that's the answer you get.
415
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:12.519
Nobody knows. I have no idea, what do you want?
416
00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:13.880
I have no idea. What are you doing with the
417
00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:16.799
rest of your life? I have no idea? Yeah, nobody
418
00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:19.680
knows and you just figure it out as you go.
419
00:21:19.799 --> 00:21:21.000
We're humans, that's what we do.
420
00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:25.200
It reminds me I had to write and I did
421
00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:27.559
not get into this law school. It was like where
422
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:29.720
do you see yourself in five years from now? And
423
00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:31.400
I wrote something that was like, I just want to
424
00:21:31.400 --> 00:21:35.240
be happy, like successful, And they definitely wanted, like I
425
00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:37.640
want to be working at this firm doing this type
426
00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:40.519
of law, you know. But I was just like, I
427
00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:42.279
don't know what I want in five years. So now
428
00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:44.880
I just hope I'm happy and I'm content with myself.
429
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:50.240
Yeah, yeah, I mean I think that's true. I think again.
430
00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:53.559
I thought it was the most honest answer I could get, right,
431
00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:54.559
because it's like that is.
432
00:21:54.440 --> 00:21:57.880
What still what I want. Like, as long as I'm
433
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:01.039
happy and content with where I am, I'll be fine.
434
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:05.480
We're watching a new show today called Trying, and it's
435
00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:08.720
a I think it's a British show that the couple
436
00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:11.680
they find out that they can't have kids, and so
437
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.119
they decide to go the adoption route and they go
438
00:22:14.160 --> 00:22:17.000
to the first meeting and they were saying, well how
439
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:21.359
long does it take and they're like, well a year, Well,
440
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:24.440
a year to get your paperwork in and they're like, okay,
441
00:22:24.440 --> 00:22:26.799
and then you can get a baby. And they're like,
442
00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:31.359
most of the children are not babies, they're older kids
443
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:36.119
or whatever. And you know, kind of watching that whole
444
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.440
thing play out and looking, you know, watching them watch
445
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:45.920
their friends have have babies and that kind of stuff.
446
00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:49.920
But it was actually, it's actually really so far, I've
447
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:53.359
really enjoyed it and really funny. But the thing that
448
00:22:53.400 --> 00:22:55.880
I wanted to bring up about it was that when
449
00:22:55.880 --> 00:22:57.880
we talk about how we don't know what we're doing,
450
00:22:58.200 --> 00:23:03.359
so they fill out the huge application, which I'm very
451
00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:05.519
familiar with because we did it three times.
452
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:09.319
And all three times.
453
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:12.079
They completely set no completely separate stuff you should I mean,
454
00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:15.119
the stacks of paperwork you can't even see. Multiply this
455
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:17.640
by ten is what I have at home still of
456
00:23:17.799 --> 00:23:19.839
you know, all the documents that because I kept a
457
00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:22.240
copy of everything because you just never know. But anyways,
458
00:23:22.720 --> 00:23:27.960
in with the application, they had also created this checklist
459
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:30.200
of the things that they needed to change about themselves
460
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:36.079
so that they could be like good parents or maybe
461
00:23:36.079 --> 00:23:38.359
be accepted to adopt a child. It was like, okay,
462
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:44.480
drink less, stop smoking, I forget like make more money.
463
00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:46.279
Like they had this whole list of stuff that was
464
00:23:46.319 --> 00:23:50.119
really funny, and when they were putting the application in,
465
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:54.759
they actually put that in with it by mistake, and
466
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:57.000
so then of course they panic that like they'll never
467
00:23:57.039 --> 00:23:59.799
be approved because they basically just sent them a list
468
00:23:59.799 --> 00:24:03.119
of all of their faults. And they're like, well, they
469
00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:05.240
know who we are now, Like we're brutally honest about
470
00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:07.319
like who we are. So, you know, I think that's
471
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:09.599
the thing about it is that, yeah, nobody knows what
472
00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:13.319
they're doing. Literally, just we're just getting by and doing
473
00:24:13.359 --> 00:24:16.119
our best, and you know, and some days it's great,
474
00:24:16.119 --> 00:24:17.400
and some days you're like, well.
475
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:19.839
That did not work. I can let me try something
476
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:20.640
different tomorrow.
477
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:22.480
That could use a do over.
478
00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:25.519
But yeah, I've had a couple of those recently. It's like, oh,
479
00:24:25.960 --> 00:24:31.559
just let's tweak it a little bit, tweak that, and thinking, yeah.
480
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:33.759
Well, anyways, this was a fun conversation. Yeah, So what's
481
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:36.519
what's the takeaway? Yeah, growing up is scary, but like
482
00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:37.759
everybody does it.
483
00:24:38.240 --> 00:24:39.880
This is the most grown up I think I've ever
484
00:24:39.960 --> 00:24:44.000
felt like this summer. I don't know if it's like
485
00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:47.079
living alone or if it's I know, like after this summer,
486
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:52.000
it's my last year of being a kid pretty much
487
00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:57.640
living alone, being a kid, the living alone thing, Like,
488
00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:00.559
I've gotten so much more comfortable myself.
489
00:25:01.559 --> 00:25:05.119
Yeah, you don't know what you can do until you
490
00:25:05.160 --> 00:25:07.880
try it, right, And yeah, you know, I think it.
491
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:12.599
I know for so many people, they've never really had
492
00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:15.640
that experience of kind of being out there.
493
00:25:16.079 --> 00:25:18.079
Although it is one of those things that I don't
494
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:20.839
think everybody needs to live alone. Like I think everybody
495
00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:22.680
needs to live in a big city at one point
496
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:26.319
in their lives. Okay, it doesn't have to be New York,
497
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:28.279
don't get me wrong. It can be any big city
498
00:25:28.519 --> 00:25:32.319
just like that has tall buildings and it's like semi walkable.
499
00:25:32.839 --> 00:25:33.440
That's all I think.
500
00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:38.759
He lived in a big city. I'm still okay. I
501
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:42.359
think it's good. I think it's good for independence, right.
502
00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:45.200
I think it really teaches you how to figure things out. No,
503
00:25:45.279 --> 00:25:48.720
I never did. I turned out Okay, I mean okay.
504
00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:52.519
But yeah, I guess you really did.
505
00:25:52.599 --> 00:25:52.880
Huh.
506
00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:54.519
Yeah. So I mean we can look at a lot
507
00:25:54.519 --> 00:25:56.640
of different things. Well I should do this.
508
00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:58.160
But like, if you're going to give you my advice,
509
00:25:58.200 --> 00:26:00.799
I don't think everybody needs to live alone. I think
510
00:26:01.480 --> 00:26:04.119
you can discover the things about you that I discovered
511
00:26:04.160 --> 00:26:07.480
living alone in other circumstances, but it definitely has been
512
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:08.319
pretty formative.
513
00:26:09.200 --> 00:26:13.119
I think two things that people need to do. Talk
514
00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:17.000
to strangers. Yeah, not as a child, but as an adult,
515
00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:19.279
like you never know what you're going to learn from somebody.
516
00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:24.279
And travel even I'm not saying like go get on
517
00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:28.759
a ten thousand dollars flight, but taking a bus somewhere
518
00:26:28.759 --> 00:26:32.000
and seeing something different and going to a different state.
519
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:36.559
And really because we make these assumptions. I think the
520
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:40.519
World Cup was a great example of it. People have
521
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:44.440
assumptions of how people live and how people are until
522
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:46.240
they get there and they're like, wait, this is not
523
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:52.000
what I expected, right, And I think and again, help
524
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:55.000
people become friends and help people stay friends, and how
525
00:26:55.039 --> 00:26:57.240
people don't stay friends. I mean that's another big piece
526
00:26:57.240 --> 00:26:57.480
of it.
527
00:26:58.319 --> 00:27:00.240
Yeah, I think that well was like so beautif full
528
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:01.599
in terms of relationships.
529
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:05.319
Yeah, I mean I think a lot of people made
530
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:09.720
lasting relationships. And watching some of the posts from people
531
00:27:09.759 --> 00:27:13.920
saying wow, I really had no clue that this is
532
00:27:13.920 --> 00:27:16.400
how it was in the United States and I met
533
00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:20.680
the most amazing people and you know, so again, keep
534
00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:26.640
it open, right, just never make assumptions and yeah, put
535
00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:29.079
yourself out there. Yeah, put yourself out there.
536
00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:31.680
No, I'm just more of like the don't make assumptions thing.
537
00:27:31.799 --> 00:27:34.240
Yeah, don't make an ass out of you and me.
538
00:27:35.759 --> 00:27:36.240
That was good.
539
00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:38.440
Don't assume anything. You've never heard that before.
540
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:39.839
Well obviously I've heard that before.
541
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:46.079
Okay, just check it. I think we're good.
542
00:27:46.480 --> 00:27:47.759
Yeah, I do my thing.
543
00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:49.440
Yeah, tell me your calendar.
544
00:27:50.440 --> 00:27:53.079
We're simply using fear as a band aid to cover
545
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:56.359
everything we don't want to face. It's an explanation that
546
00:27:56.440 --> 00:27:58.759
allows us to put that task off indefinitely.
547
00:27:59.839 --> 00:28:03.319
I think that's like great for this episode, right, Yeah,
548
00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:06.519
I mean we fear the unknown, right, so when it
549
00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:09.759
comes to meeting new people, when it comes to you know,
550
00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:12.759
your workplace, when it comes to any of that, then
551
00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:15.880
we're afraid that. Okay, what if people don't like me,
552
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:18.599
Well then they're not your people. I mean, there's so
553
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:21.720
many people out there that you can meet and become
554
00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:25.240
friends with, and yeah, put yourself out there and create
555
00:28:25.240 --> 00:28:27.200
those relationships because you never know when you're gonna need
556
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:29.519
them in the future in a good way. Not like
557
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:30.920
you need them, but you know what I mean, like
558
00:28:31.720 --> 00:28:38.200
like you build them because it's supports you so I agree.
559
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:42.000
Love you. Good seeing you.
560
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:42.079
I love you.
561
00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:44.200
Okay, thanks.
562
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:46.680
Hang out with your your favorite grand kid or something.
563
00:28:46.920 --> 00:28:47.559
Yeah, I am.
564
00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:49.200
Well, I'm gonna take a shower and then I'm gonna
565
00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:50.960
go hang out with my favorite grand kid. Although it's
566
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:55.039
it's almost bed time, he's he had his bath, he's
567
00:28:55.039 --> 00:28:59.160
probably drinking some milk and then it's bedtime.
568
00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:02.880
Seems like all babies do sleep, eat.
569
00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:08.559
Safe, eat, Yeah, sometimes babe sleeping cry a bit, Yeah,
570
00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:14.640
babies do. Yeah. People want and people want them. Yeah,
571
00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:17.319
because they're so cute and snugly.
572
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:19.720
Yeah, I don't know. I feel like I'm waiting for
573
00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:22.400
my maternal instinct to kick in. Still, I don't know
574
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:23.319
when that's going to happen.
575
00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:26.319
Okay, for some people, I buy not you know, I mean,
576
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:28.680
I know there's nothing to say that you have to
577
00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:32.240
have kids. I mean that's your choice.
578
00:29:32.279 --> 00:29:33.920
Well, it'd be a shame if I didn't pass down
579
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:36.680
my beauty intelligence to the next generation.
580
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:41.680
So you are so right, And with that, thank you,
581
00:29:42.119 --> 00:29:44.480

Some more women can find the show.
590
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:07.559
Keep trusting yourself.
591
00:30:08.119 --> 00:30:09.559
You are stronger than you think.
592
00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:11.640
You are unshakable.
593
00:30:12.480 --> 00:30:13.319
See you next week.
1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.879
And I think that's important for everybody to hear, Like,
2
00:00:02.919 --> 00:00:05.320
you should not be sitting around waiting for anybody, right,
3
00:00:05.360 --> 00:00:06.480
I mean, well, and.
4
00:00:06.919 --> 00:00:09.960
People do that romantic relationships too. I can't think of
5
00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:12.080
like one of the big things I tried to change
6
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:15.560
about myself going into law school was not waiting for
7
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:17.559
somebody to want to do the same thing as me
8
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:20.039
to go out and do it, because I think there's
9
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:22.160
a lot of experiences in New York that I didn't
10
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:25.239
end up doing simply because I couldn't find somebody that
11
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:27.920
wanted to do it with me. But now it's just like, oh, well,
12
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:29.320
if I had said I was doing it, I'm sure
13
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:31.399
somebody would have he would have wanted to come along
14
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:33.280
or be it would have made somebody like met somebody
15
00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:34.320
there that I'd be you know.
16
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:37.200
Yeah, I mean I think that is really key, is
17
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:39.880
do the things you want to do right, do it
18
00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:42.560
by yourself. I know plenty of people who travel by
19
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:44.920
themselves all the time. Well, I know, and that's so,
20
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:48.159
you know, because you're doing something you want to do
21
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:50.679
where a lot of people wait for something to happen,
22
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:53.880
it's not going to happen, no, I mean, yeah, it's
23
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:56.320
like waiting for someone to change. It's not going to happen.
24
00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:58.520
So you got to do the things that make you
25
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:01.679
happy and got to do the things you want to do. Yeah,
26
00:01:01.799 --> 00:01:05.760
welcome to her unshakeable confidence. I'm Simone Canego and.
27
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:06.799
I'm Olivia Canego.
28
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.760
Each week we have honest conversations about confidence, self doubt,
29
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:13.079
and the moments in life that shape who we become.
30
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:15.599
Some weeks we talk with inspiring guests.
31
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.519
In other weeks, it's just the two of us sharing
32
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:19.079
what we're.
33
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:20.040
Learning along the way.
34
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:23.280
So pull up a chair and join the conversation.
35
00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:26.120
This is her unshakable confidence.
36
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:31.280
Welcome to her unshakeable confidence. I'm Simone Canego and I'm
37
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:34.599
Olivia Canego. And this week we're going to be talking
38
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:41.799
about relationships of some sort kind of more like dynamics, dynamics,
39
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:43.840
all of dynamics in general.
40
00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:46.959
Yeah, because I think I'm at the part of my
41
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:50.840
life now where it went from your add experiences. And
42
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:54.560
you'll guarantee you make friends through like you know, school,
43
00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:59.840
summer camp, internships and not not that internships are guaranteed,
44
00:01:59.879 --> 00:02:02.480
but like some of the internship programs are. And now
45
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:04.760
I'm transitioning to the adult world where you actually have
46
00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:07.640
to like put an effort to find friends.
47
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:11.000
Yeah, and you're not wrong, they're like a lot of
48
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:15.199
it though, comes naturally once you get into different situations,
49
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:17.840
like your sister in law. In law and I were
50
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:21.680
talking about, like she's going to start a program like
51
00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:25.960
a mommy and Me program in September, I think September.
52
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:28.199
We like because it's a great way so you meet
53
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:32.879
other moms and right right, right, and people decide, you know,
54
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:35.919
wave of life as view, Yeah, for sure, I mean
55
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:39.520
it is. It makes a lot of sense that a
56
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:42.759
lot of the friends that I have today are friends
57
00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:45.680
that I made when you guys were really little, right.
58
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:47.960
And even if you're not, like we're not friends, like
59
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:49.919
their kids aren't like friends anymore.
60
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:55.560
Yeah, I mean everybody knows each other, right, so, but yeah,
61
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:59.080
it is interesting, like where do you find your friends?
62
00:02:59.159 --> 00:03:02.080
And sometimes I think the most interesting thing for me
63
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:06.560
is that when your dad and I were younger, we
64
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:10.039
were always going out all the time with other people,
65
00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:12.039
you know, and we still it's not that we don't,
66
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.919
but there's something to be said for just hanging out
67
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:17.159
together now, right.
68
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:21.199
Yeah, wait, I actually was dressed on the phone with
69
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.919
Jack obviously, because what else do I do with my
70
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:27.039
my time living by myself? But I was just thinking
71
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:31.639
that because I've actually had to like push myself a
72
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:33.879
lot harder this summer. But if he was just here,
73
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:38.800
I probably wouldn't. Yeah, it is interesting, right, right, And
74
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:43.439
I am like a naturally social person obviously, obviously it
75
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:45.120
only you know, it only took me twenty three years
76
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:50.000
to figure out that I'm actually extroverted. But I think
77
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.240
that the level of comfort you get from like being
78
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.439
with your long term partners, like, Oh, like, I don't
79
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:57.080
know if I want to do like the what do
80
00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:01.680
they call those like dating five minute dating things? What
81
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:02.479
do you call it?
82
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:03.120
Speed dating?
83
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:03.719
Ah?
84
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:05.199
Yeah, I don't know if I want to do the
85
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.319
speed dating for friends when I just already have like
86
00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:08.680
my best friend living at home with me.
87
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:12.400
Yeah, but it is nice to kind of like expand
88
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:13.280
that I know.
89
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:16.079
And obviously this summer, like I haven't been the best
90
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:19.959
at it, mostly because I'm like, Okay, there's like an
91
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.680
end date on this, and I do I want to
92
00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:25.879
spend my limited weekends making friends that I know? That's
93
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:26.920
such a bad mindset.
94
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.600
No, you can't know it like that relationships last forever.
95
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:32.560
Right, right, and it's it's not I don't know.
96
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:35.560
Yeah, I think you have to think about it differently because,
97
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.759
I mean, people you never know when people you meet
98
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:40.680
at some point are going to come back into your life, mean,
99
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:42.800
or the connection you're going to keep with that, right,
100
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:44.319
Relationships always matter.
101
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:46.959
I had like such a small world moment on Saturday.
102
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:50.920
We went out actually with one of your friend's kids me, like,
103
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:54.040
and just you know her friends like I know them
104
00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:57.439
or like I know them through people. Yeah, just another
105
00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:00.360
binder of always treat people with kindness and show up
106
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:02.519
with your best version of you because you never know
107
00:05:02.600 --> 00:05:08.279
your reputation that's going around. Interesting, Oh mine's not bad. No,
108
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:10.319
it was just like one of those things that I
109
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:15.480
was thinking about. It's like, just like the way connections work,
110
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:17.759
especially with social media now, It's like I can see
111
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:20.519
that two people that I would have never thought knew
112
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:23.279
each other somehow follow each other on Instagram, right, and
113
00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:25.879
it's like, do they even know that they both know me?
114
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:28.079
Right?
115
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:28.279
Not?
116
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.639
No, one's as nosy as I am. But my point
117
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:34.439
there being like show up as the best version of
118
00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:36.399
yourself all the time.
119
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:41.000
Yeah, I mean I think also that the relationship part
120
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:44.839
is huge because I think what you just said was
121
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:49.759
that idea of that these people like do I put
122
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:53.399
the effort in because but you always you should always
123
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:55.120
put the effort in because you never know where it's
124
00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:57.639
going to go. I mean you could say that about college,
125
00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:00.000
that if people are being in college, it's a temporary
126
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.639
everything and you don't know. I mean, you know, you
127
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:05.560
have friends forever because of that.
128
00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:10.519
I think right now I'm just in a particularly weird
129
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:13.800
spot in life.
130
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.560
So I do think that you have to think about
131
00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:23.040
every relationship because you never know. And there's so many honestly,
132
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:25.439
there's so many keynote speakers now that talk about the
133
00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:30.879
power of relationships and rich relationships and all these different things,
134
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:35.399
because you want to have those relationships before you need.
135
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:38.560
Them, agreed. I mean, like that's a big concept. I
136
00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:40.439
feel like I see on Instagram all the time that
137
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:42.839
everybody wants a village, but nobody wants to put in
138
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:45.439
the work of having a village. It's like, you can't
139
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.800
just expect people to do things for you if you're
140
00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:52.000
not going to do them for them. Kind of mentality.
141
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:55.120
Yeah, don't ask for something if you've never offered to
142
00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:59.199
do anything before, right, right, so right, And.
143
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.519
I mean like that goes back to highlighting the importance
144
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:04.600
of relationships. It's just so weird as a young adult
145
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:08.720
making friends also like the first time in my life
146
00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:13.240
that people my friends are not just my age. Yeah.
147
00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.480
I think that's a big difference too, is that when
148
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:20.360
you when you're not meeting people within a classroom setting
149
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:22.839
or your grade or whatever you want to call it,
150
00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:27.079
you know, you definitely have a big, you know, array
151
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:30.160
of people that you meet that they don't have to
152
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:31.120
be the same age.
153
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:33.199
Right, it's not even and it goes beyond like the
154
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.000
same age. It's the same like kind of upbringing and
155
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:39.279
same background in general. And I feel like we all
156
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:42.639
kind of get into our paths of life, whether you
157
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:44.680
go to college, whether you don't go to college, whether
158
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:46.759
you go to trade school, et cetera, and you stick
159
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:48.560
with this group of people. But at least for me,
160
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.879
this is the first time like stepping outside of you know,
161
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:58.839
the academic area, academic arena, that you're really meeting people
162
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:01.040
from all sorts of backgrounds. And that's like an additional
163
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:05.399
layer to navigate, not necessarily a bad layer at all.
164
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:07.879
Like it's kind of cool having friends that are way
165
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.959
older and way younger than you. But it's just like
166
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.399
an additional thing to think about.
167
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.279
Well, you know, it's interesting you said that. So when
168
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:23.439
I joined I joined National Young Leadership Cabinet whatever year.
169
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:30.439
That was twenty thirteen, and the first event I went to,
170
00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:34.000
I stayed by myself because I really didn't know anybody.
171
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:37.879
And then I started talking to the person who was
172
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:42.919
basically our orientation leader, and I said, you know, for
173
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:46.600
next year or for our trip, like our mission trip.
174
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:48.799
I said, I, you know, i'd love to find a roommate.
175
00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:51.360
What's the best way to do it. She goes, well,
176
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:54.720
I'd love to be your roommate. And I was like, wait, what,
177
00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:58.759
Like you're you're in a you know, two classes above me.
178
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:00.559
How does that work? You know, because I was so
179
00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:05.320
used to your rank. Yeah, yeah, and that's not real life.
180
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:07.120
No, it's not real life at all.
181
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:09.399
From all different.
182
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:12.759
So even in law school, like you know, it's not
183
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:16.240
that I'm actively trying to avoid making friends with the
184
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:18.519
people in the grades below me. It's just that I
185
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:21.679
haven't had the opportunity to do so. So now it's
186
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:23.960
like when I see people that's like, oh, like my
187
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:25.840
best friend is a class below me, and I'm like,
188
00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:30.200
how how how did you even accomplish that? But when
189
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:32.519
you enter the real world, it's like, yeah, like my
190
00:09:32.600 --> 00:09:34.720
co worker is fifty something years old and he's my
191
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:36.440
best friend that I talked to every single day.
192
00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:39.639
Yeah, I mean you you might be you know, what
193
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:41.600
we talked about before is you might be attracted to
194
00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:47.080
or connect with people that are in the same stage
195
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:50.600
of life as you. But sometimes that's not true at all, right,
196
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:52.320
and that's great.
197
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:53.879
Well, and that's one of the things I kind of
198
00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:55.759
think I learned in college a little bit. It's just
199
00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:58.279
that someone being the same age as you does not
200
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:01.679
mean they're in the same set of life as you.
201
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:05.679
And also maybe not the same maturity level.
202
00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:07.399
I think that's that's what I was at the same
203
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:08.399
maturity level.
204
00:10:08.480 --> 00:10:09.320
Yeah, what I was.
205
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:10.159
Trying to but.
206
00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:12.879
I don't know.
207
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:14.879
I mean, like, I'm working on it. It's getting better
208
00:10:15.600 --> 00:10:19.519
speaking friends, yeah, but it's just a it's a.
209
00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:26.240
It's hard for everybody. Yeah, the most outgoing people. It's
210
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:31.120
finding that deep friendship that I don't think you find
211
00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:34.840
it as often as people think, right.
212
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:37.080
And I am a kind of person that I realized
213
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.480
this recently, Like and it's something I'm really trying to
214
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.360
work on is prior to probably this year, I didn't
215
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:47.600
have acquaintances. I only had to like either I knew you,
216
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:51.039
I didn't know you, or you're my best friend. Like,
217
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:53.519
I had no casual friends. And I'm really trying to
218
00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:56.000
work on this idea of a casual friend. Like, you know,
219
00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:59.279
you don't need to fundamentally get along with everybody on
220
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.559
every issue to be you know, friends with them, or
221
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:04.600
go to a new restaurant or you know, do an
222
00:11:04.639 --> 00:11:07.519
activity together. You just need to like like them enough
223
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:10.559
to spend three to four hours with them. And that's
224
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.360
like an additional layer of relationships that I'm working on.
225
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:16.000
Yeah, I mean you learn something from everybody you meet.
226
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:19.720
And you know, there's definitely people that will go out
227
00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:21.919
to dinner with, but we're not calling them all of
228
00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:24.759
the time. Right Again, life is so busy that it's
229
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:25.320
hard to do.
230
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:29.440
Yeah, And that's another thing that I'm realizing is that that's
231
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:34.600
the beauty of casual friendships is that, like everybody is
232
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:38.279
so busy in life that it's easier to keep these
233
00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:40.840
relationships together because the expectations aren't so hot.
234
00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:42.679
I was gonna say no expectations.
235
00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:44.879
Right, Yeah, it's like, if I see you for dinner, great.
236
00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:46.759
If I don't see you for dinner, oh, we'll catch
237
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:47.559
up at the next event.
238
00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:50.480
Okay, I watched this crazy movie the other day.
239
00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:52.399
Which one are you gonna say? Obsession?
240
00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:59.000
No, maternal instincts. Have you watched it? It's a documentary?
241
00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:01.279
Okay, Oh I'm shocked. Have it actually? Because I love
242
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:02.360
my weird docus.
243
00:12:02.679 --> 00:12:05.919
Oh yeah, you need to watch it, so I guess
244
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:10.559
I can't really give it away. But anyways, the the well,
245
00:12:10.679 --> 00:12:12.919
everybody knows the story because it's well you might not
246
00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:15.080
know the story, but it's you know, it was on
247
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:20.559
the news. So basically, this woman she kind of created
248
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:25.320
this friendship with this other woman and she ends up
249
00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:30.000
stealing her not even born baby.
250
00:12:30.799 --> 00:12:32.200
Yeah yeah, okay.
251
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:38.720
So when I say that deep friendships sometimes are harder
252
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:41.200
to come by, you also have to be very careful
253
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:43.480
you invite into your circle.
254
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:50.039
That obviously it was intent at all, But since I have,
255
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:52.399
you know, had been like the kind of person and
256
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:54.559
I realized how off putting it can be. I'm the
257
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:56.120
kind of person that goes from like zero to one
258
00:12:56.159 --> 00:12:58.320
hundred and friendships really fast and it's bit me in
259
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:00.360
the butt so many times. Obviously not to the point
260
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:02.360
where I'm having somebody come over to my house. It's
261
00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:04.159
still my unborn child out of my womb.
262
00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:06.960
But do you remember the night we were at the
263
00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:09.879
bar and you made besties with that one girl at
264
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:12.799
the bar and like, yeah, you know, yeah, see I
265
00:13:12.799 --> 00:13:15.399
need to say thing like your future And then like
266
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:18.440
I used to start doing what was I thinking?
267
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:21.600
Like that's what I'm saying, Like I got it's something hilarious.
268
00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:24.039
But I'm really personable.
269
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:24.759
What can I say?
270
00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:31.159
Yeah? And again, casual friendships are great, and you know
271
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:36.080
you save the deep friendships for the few people. And
272
00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:40.480
actually the deep friendship thing is like, let me clarify
273
00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:43.240
that it's someone that you can pick up with, you know,
274
00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:47.639
wherever you left off, and I still don't need that constant,
275
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:49.799
but it's like someone that you've known for a really
276
00:13:49.840 --> 00:13:50.240
long time.
277
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:53.240
Do you think the friendships require the constant And that's
278
00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:55.320
why it's easier when you're younger. I mean like, yeah,
279
00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:57.360
one of your best friends is from college, when you
280
00:13:57.399 --> 00:13:59.080
had the same time one of my best friends is
281
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:01.720
from college. When you have the time to really work
282
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:06.559
on those like super formative relationships. But now it's like, Okay,
283
00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:08.919
I work nine to six, takes me thirty minutes to
284
00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:10.960
get to work, thirty minutes to get home. The last
285
00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:12.559
thing I want to do on a like a week
286
00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:14.399
night is go and do anything.
287
00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:20.120
Yeah. And I think also the hard, hard thing is
288
00:14:21.279 --> 00:14:25.720
when you're in a relationship, like you know, a long
289
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:29.879
term relationship with somebody, like you do want to spend
290
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:31.639
your time with them. And then if you have friends
291
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:33.960
that don't necessarily get along with them, or they're not
292
00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:37.600
like sometimes they're just not compatible, right, So it's not
293
00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:40.879
like you'll do everything together. I think you're very fortunate
294
00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:46.360
in that in your relationship you he I don't want
295
00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:48.200
to say puts up with, but he's totally fine when
296
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.639
you go out with your friends, right, And that's great
297
00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:53.679
and the same for me, And I think that's an
298
00:14:53.679 --> 00:14:57.120
important thing that you can have that time wherever.
299
00:14:56.919 --> 00:14:57.799
You're not dependent.
300
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:04.759
Yeah, because you know, as life changes, I mean especially
301
00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:07.679
for me, your dad was working so much, so I
302
00:15:07.759 --> 00:15:09.559
needed to be able to figure out, Okay, what do
303
00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:12.200
I do when he's not home, Like I don't want
304
00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:15.440
to be sitting around waiting for anybody. Yeah, And I
305
00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:18.200
think that's important for everybody to hear, Like, you should
306
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:21.720
not be sitting around waiting for anybody, right, I mean, well, and.
307
00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:24.600
That does people do the romantic relationships too. I can't
308
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:26.840
think of like one of the big things I tried
309
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.840
to change about myself going into law school was not
310
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:32.679
waiting for somebody to want to do the same thing
311
00:15:32.679 --> 00:15:35.039
as me, to go out and do it, because I
312
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:37.120
think there's a lot of experiences in New York that
313
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:40.639
I didn't end up doing simply because I couldn't find
314
00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:42.840
somebody that wanted to do it with me. But now
315
00:15:42.840 --> 00:15:44.519
it's just like, oh well, if I had said I
316
00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:46.480
was doing it, I'm sure somebody would have he would
317
00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:48.039
have wanted to come along, or be I would have
318
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.399
made somebody, like met somebody there that i'd be you know.
319
00:15:51.720 --> 00:15:54.720
Yeah, I mean I think that is really key is
320
00:15:55.279 --> 00:15:58.399
do the things you want to do right, do it
321
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:01.320
by yourself. I know any of people who travel by
322
00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:04.080
themselves all the time. Oh I know, And that's so great,
323
00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:07.159
you know, because you're doing something you want to do
324
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.240
where a lot of people wait for something to happen,
325
00:16:10.639 --> 00:16:14.600
it's not going to happen nor and I Yeah, it's
326
00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:17.200
like waiting for someone to change. It's not going to happen.
327
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:19.720
So you got to do the things that make you
328
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:21.679
happy and got to do the things you want to do.
329
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:27.840
Yeah, but growing up is so scary, Like it's scary,
330
00:16:27.960 --> 00:16:32.960
you know. Yeah, you have the normal changes of like Okay,
331
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:35.559
obviously all of these are hypothetical because I'm so very
332
00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:38.279
dependent on my parents. But like you have the normal
333
00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:40.720
changes of like Okay, I have to support myself. I
334
00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:44.639
have to figure out a job. I have to you know, figure.
335
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:45.600
Out for my cell phone plan.
336
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:48.559
Yeah, health insurance, go to the doctor, book, all these
337
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:50.519
things about yourself. But then the things that you think
338
00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:53.919
are so constant, like your ability to make friends, that
339
00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:58.279
also changes. And I think that's something people don't talk about, like, yeah,
340
00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:00.879
adult relationships are different, but what that actually mean?
341
00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:08.599
Yeah, and it's different for every person though too. So
342
00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:12.240
I mean, like I could say, yes, adult relationships are different,
343
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:17.720
and sometimes they're not. Like, you know, I have a
344
00:17:17.759 --> 00:17:21.240
girlfriend group. We do and it's it's such a cool Again,
345
00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:23.400
this is like one of those cool things. I didn't
346
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:25.599
get to go this year because I was up here
347
00:17:25.599 --> 00:17:28.000
with the baby, which is where I am right now.
348
00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:33.119
I was up in DC, but they we've done a
349
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:38.559
girls trip for eighteen years. I don't know how many
350
00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:44.079
years really really maybe more than that, and now it's
351
00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:45.839
more of a core group. It used to be much
352
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:48.839
bigger and now it's been the same people for the
353
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:52.480
last however many years. And it's a really cool thing
354
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:55.960
because watching our evolution of we used to go and
355
00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:57.960
we used to go to bars all the time. And
356
00:17:58.000 --> 00:18:01.240
this year they rented a a beach house and just
357
00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:03.680
hung out and talked and sway them And of course
358
00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:08.599
I wasn't there, but it looked amazing and like, well.
359
00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:12.240
I felt that this with my best friend visiting this weekend. Yes,
360
00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:15.720
I was like, oh my god, Like we're old. We
361
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:19.000
didn't The latest we stayed out was like eleven thirty
362
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:23.960
and for us, that's like that's you know, like less
363
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:25.240
than our college heydays.
364
00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:26.440
Was insane.
365
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:28.839
But I guess that's that's also the cool part about
366
00:18:28.839 --> 00:18:31.359
adult friendships. The ones that lost are like the people
367
00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:32.400
that you grow with too.
368
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:35.759
And also you don't feel like you're missing anything, right,
369
00:18:35.880 --> 00:18:39.680
you realize that, like, Okay, what I wanted from this
370
00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:41.680
evening was to hang out with this person. It's not
371
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.000
about going to a bar. And any of that stuff.
372
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:47.559
And so I think that's the cool thing about as
373
00:18:47.599 --> 00:18:52.799
relationships grow like that that I want to say deepness,
374
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:55.759
but that just sounds weird. But you know that depth that's.
375
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:57.319
The way that's that's way better.
376
00:18:57.400 --> 00:19:01.559
Yeah, the depth to the relationship isn't about okay, you know,
377
00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:04.000
how like can we stay up and we're gonna get
378
00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:04.799
right wasted?
379
00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:08.079
And how much like things change within I don't know,
380
00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:11.079
two to three years. It's that's why you know you're
381
00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:14.319
you're sixteen to like twenty six. It feels like feel
382
00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:16.240
like the most formative years and I'm not even two
383
00:19:16.319 --> 00:19:18.759
twenty six yet. The most formative years of my life
384
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:21.960
I've been sixteen to right now, because I have experienced
385
00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:27.599
the most growth between even like month by month, I.
386
00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:31.160
Mean, hallo. I mean I got married at twenty one,
387
00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:34.000
I had your brother at twenty four, right, I mean,
388
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:38.880
so you when you think about that, how much growth
389
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:42.960
I had as a human and how I had no
390
00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:46.960
clue what I was doing, I'm amazed like that it
391
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:50.599
all worked out. I mean it does. But like I
392
00:19:50.680 --> 00:19:56.039
look at your oldest well your older brother because he's
393
00:19:56.079 --> 00:20:02.119
the oldest of you know, and watching them race their baby,
394
00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:03.440
and but.
395
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:05.720
Also yeah, I'm looking at his how his life has
396
00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:08.920
changed so much in the last five years.
397
00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:14.880
Yeah, I mean married, baby, new city, new job, new friends,
398
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:20.000
new everything. Right, I mean, so life is all about change.
399
00:20:20.039 --> 00:20:26.799
I actually wrote about it. My last blog article was
400
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:32.160
about instead of so often we're told to brace for change,
401
00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:36.759
and I truly believe it's about embracing change, like right,
402
00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:40.720
because change is going to happen all the time, and
403
00:20:40.799 --> 00:20:42.839
it's really figuring out what you want from it instead
404
00:20:42.839 --> 00:20:44.079
of saying, oh my god, this is going to be
405
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:46.119
bad or I don't know what to do next. And
406
00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:49.880
I mean that's a big part of making friends is saying, Okay,
407
00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:50.880
what do I want?
408
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:53.799
You know what, I'm realizing that nobody knows what they're
409
00:20:53.799 --> 00:20:55.440
freaking doing in any aspect.
410
00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:56.920
That's so true.
411
00:20:57.039 --> 00:20:59.160
Nobody ever knows what they're doing. And if you just
412
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:00.160
like play it off your.
413
00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:05.920
Fine, you're fuddy. Yeah it's true. I mean, it's the
414
00:21:05.960 --> 00:21:09.519
biggest when you ask that question, that's the answer you get.
415
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:12.519
Nobody knows. I have no idea, what do you want?
416
00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:13.880
I have no idea. What are you doing with the
417
00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:16.799
rest of your life? I have no idea? Yeah, nobody
418
00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:19.680
knows and you just figure it out as you go.
419
00:21:19.799 --> 00:21:21.000
We're humans, that's what we do.
420
00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:25.200
It reminds me I had to write and I did
421
00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:27.559
not get into this law school. It was like where
422
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:29.720
do you see yourself in five years from now? And
423
00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:31.400
I wrote something that was like, I just want to
424
00:21:31.400 --> 00:21:35.240
be happy, like successful, And they definitely wanted, like I
425
00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:37.640
want to be working at this firm doing this type
426
00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:40.519
of law, you know. But I was just like, I
427
00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:42.279
don't know what I want in five years. So now
428
00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:44.880
I just hope I'm happy and I'm content with myself.
429
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:50.240
Yeah, yeah, I mean I think that's true. I think again.
430
00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:53.559
I thought it was the most honest answer I could get, right,
431
00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:54.559
because it's like that is.
432
00:21:54.440 --> 00:21:57.880
What still what I want. Like, as long as I'm
433
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:01.039
happy and content with where I am, I'll be fine.
434
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:05.480
We're watching a new show today called Trying, and it's
435
00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:08.720
a I think it's a British show that the couple
436
00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:11.680
they find out that they can't have kids, and so
437
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.119
they decide to go the adoption route and they go
438
00:22:14.160 --> 00:22:17.000
to the first meeting and they were saying, well how
439
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:21.359
long does it take and they're like, well a year, Well,
440
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:24.440
a year to get your paperwork in and they're like, okay,
441
00:22:24.440 --> 00:22:26.799
and then you can get a baby. And they're like,
442
00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:31.359
most of the children are not babies, they're older kids
443
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:36.119
or whatever. And you know, kind of watching that whole
444
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:41.440
thing play out and looking, you know, watching them watch
445
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:45.920
their friends have have babies and that kind of stuff.
446
00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:49.920
But it was actually, it's actually really so far, I've
447
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:53.359
really enjoyed it and really funny. But the thing that
448
00:22:53.400 --> 00:22:55.880
I wanted to bring up about it was that when
449
00:22:55.880 --> 00:22:57.880
we talk about how we don't know what we're doing,
450
00:22:58.200 --> 00:23:03.359
so they fill out the huge application, which I'm very
451
00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:05.519
familiar with because we did it three times.
452
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:09.319
And all three times.
453
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:12.079
They completely set no completely separate stuff you should I mean,
454
00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:15.119
the stacks of paperwork you can't even see. Multiply this
455
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:17.640
by ten is what I have at home still of
456
00:23:17.799 --> 00:23:19.839
you know, all the documents that because I kept a
457
00:23:19.880 --> 00:23:22.240
copy of everything because you just never know. But anyways,
458
00:23:22.720 --> 00:23:27.960
in with the application, they had also created this checklist
459
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:30.200
of the things that they needed to change about themselves
460
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:36.079
so that they could be like good parents or maybe
461
00:23:36.079 --> 00:23:38.359
be accepted to adopt a child. It was like, okay,
462
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:44.480
drink less, stop smoking, I forget like make more money.
463
00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:46.279
Like they had this whole list of stuff that was
464
00:23:46.319 --> 00:23:50.119
really funny, and when they were putting the application in,
465
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:54.759
they actually put that in with it by mistake, and
466
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:57.000
so then of course they panic that like they'll never
467
00:23:57.039 --> 00:23:59.799
be approved because they basically just sent them a list
468
00:23:59.799 --> 00:24:03.119
of all of their faults. And they're like, well, they
469
00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:05.240
know who we are now, Like we're brutally honest about
470
00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:07.319
like who we are. So, you know, I think that's
471
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:09.599
the thing about it is that, yeah, nobody knows what
472
00:24:09.640 --> 00:24:13.319
they're doing. Literally, just we're just getting by and doing
473
00:24:13.359 --> 00:24:16.119
our best, and you know, and some days it's great,
474
00:24:16.119 --> 00:24:17.400
and some days you're like, well.
475
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:19.839
That did not work. I can let me try something
476
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:20.640
different tomorrow.
477
00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:22.480
That could use a do over.
478
00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:25.519
But yeah, I've had a couple of those recently. It's like, oh,
479
00:24:25.960 --> 00:24:31.559
just let's tweak it a little bit, tweak that, and thinking, yeah.
480
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:33.759
Well, anyways, this was a fun conversation. Yeah, So what's
481
00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:36.519
what's the takeaway? Yeah, growing up is scary, but like
482
00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:37.759
everybody does it.
483
00:24:38.240 --> 00:24:39.880
This is the most grown up I think I've ever
484
00:24:39.960 --> 00:24:44.000
felt like this summer. I don't know if it's like
485
00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:47.079
living alone or if it's I know, like after this summer,
486
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:52.000
it's my last year of being a kid pretty much
487
00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:57.640
living alone, being a kid, the living alone thing, Like,
488
00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:00.559
I've gotten so much more comfortable myself.
489
00:25:01.559 --> 00:25:05.119
Yeah, you don't know what you can do until you
490
00:25:05.160 --> 00:25:07.880
try it, right, And yeah, you know, I think it.
491
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:12.599
I know for so many people, they've never really had
492
00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:15.640
that experience of kind of being out there.
493
00:25:16.079 --> 00:25:18.079
Although it is one of those things that I don't
494
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:20.839
think everybody needs to live alone. Like I think everybody
495
00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:22.680
needs to live in a big city at one point
496
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:26.319
in their lives. Okay, it doesn't have to be New York,
497
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:28.279
don't get me wrong. It can be any big city
498
00:25:28.519 --> 00:25:32.319
just like that has tall buildings and it's like semi walkable.
499
00:25:32.839 --> 00:25:33.440
That's all I think.
500
00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:38.759
He lived in a big city. I'm still okay. I
501
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:42.359
think it's good. I think it's good for independence, right.
502
00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:45.200
I think it really teaches you how to figure things out. No,
503
00:25:45.279 --> 00:25:48.720
I never did. I turned out Okay, I mean okay.
504
00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:52.519
But yeah, I guess you really did.
505
00:25:52.599 --> 00:25:52.880
Huh.
506
00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:54.519
Yeah. So I mean we can look at a lot
507
00:25:54.519 --> 00:25:56.640
of different things. Well I should do this.
508
00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:58.160
But like, if you're going to give you my advice,
509
00:25:58.200 --> 00:26:00.799
I don't think everybody needs to live alone. I think
510
00:26:01.480 --> 00:26:04.119
you can discover the things about you that I discovered
511
00:26:04.160 --> 00:26:07.480
living alone in other circumstances, but it definitely has been
512
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:08.319
pretty formative.
513
00:26:09.200 --> 00:26:13.119
I think two things that people need to do. Talk
514
00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:17.000
to strangers. Yeah, not as a child, but as an adult,
515
00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:19.279
like you never know what you're going to learn from somebody.
516
00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:24.279
And travel even I'm not saying like go get on
517
00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:28.759
a ten thousand dollars flight, but taking a bus somewhere
518
00:26:28.759 --> 00:26:32.000
and seeing something different and going to a different state.
519
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:36.559
And really because we make these assumptions. I think the
520
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:40.519
World Cup was a great example of it. People have
521
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:44.440
assumptions of how people live and how people are until
522
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:46.240
they get there and they're like, wait, this is not
523
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:52.000
what I expected, right, And I think and again, help
524
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:55.000
people become friends and help people stay friends, and how
525
00:26:55.039 --> 00:26:57.240
people don't stay friends. I mean that's another big piece
526
00:26:57.240 --> 00:26:57.480
of it.
527
00:26:58.319 --> 00:27:00.240
Yeah, I think that well was like so beautif full
528
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:01.599
in terms of relationships.
529
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:05.319
Yeah, I mean I think a lot of people made
530
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:09.720
lasting relationships. And watching some of the posts from people
531
00:27:09.759 --> 00:27:13.920
saying wow, I really had no clue that this is
532
00:27:13.920 --> 00:27:16.400
how it was in the United States and I met
533
00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:20.680
the most amazing people and you know, so again, keep
534
00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:26.640
it open, right, just never make assumptions and yeah, put
535
00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:29.079
yourself out there. Yeah, put yourself out there.
536
00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:31.680
No, I'm just more of like the don't make assumptions thing.
537
00:27:31.799 --> 00:27:34.240
Yeah, don't make an ass out of you and me.
538
00:27:35.759 --> 00:27:36.240
That was good.
539
00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:38.440
Don't assume anything. You've never heard that before.
540
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:39.839
Well obviously I've heard that before.
541
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:46.079
Okay, just check it. I think we're good.
542
00:27:46.480 --> 00:27:47.759
Yeah, I do my thing.
543
00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:49.440
Yeah, tell me your calendar.
544
00:27:50.440 --> 00:27:53.079
We're simply using fear as a band aid to cover
545
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:56.359
everything we don't want to face. It's an explanation that
546
00:27:56.440 --> 00:27:58.759
allows us to put that task off indefinitely.
547
00:27:59.839 --> 00:28:03.319
I think that's like great for this episode, right, Yeah,
548
00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:06.519
I mean we fear the unknown, right, so when it
549
00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:09.759
comes to meeting new people, when it comes to you know,
550
00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:12.759
your workplace, when it comes to any of that, then
551
00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:15.880
we're afraid that. Okay, what if people don't like me,
552
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:18.599
Well then they're not your people. I mean, there's so
553
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:21.720
many people out there that you can meet and become
554
00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:25.240
friends with, and yeah, put yourself out there and create
555
00:28:25.240 --> 00:28:27.200
those relationships because you never know when you're gonna need
556
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:29.519
them in the future in a good way. Not like
557
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:30.920
you need them, but you know what I mean, like
558
00:28:31.720 --> 00:28:38.200
like you build them because it's supports you so I agree.
559
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:42.000
Love you. Good seeing you.
560
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:42.079
I love you.
561
00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:44.200
Okay, thanks.
562
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:46.680
Hang out with your your favorite grand kid or something.
563
00:28:46.920 --> 00:28:47.559
Yeah, I am.
564
00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:49.200
Well, I'm gonna take a shower and then I'm gonna
565
00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:50.960
go hang out with my favorite grand kid. Although it's
566
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:55.039
it's almost bed time, he's he had his bath, he's
567
00:28:55.039 --> 00:28:59.160
probably drinking some milk and then it's bedtime.
568
00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:02.880
Seems like all babies do sleep, eat.
569
00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:08.559
Safe, eat, Yeah, sometimes babe sleeping cry a bit, Yeah,
570
00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:14.640
babies do. Yeah. People want and people want them. Yeah,
571
00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:17.319
because they're so cute and snugly.
572
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:19.720
Yeah, I don't know. I feel like I'm waiting for
573
00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:22.400
my maternal instinct to kick in. Still, I don't know
574
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:23.319
when that's going to happen.
575
00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:26.319
Okay, for some people, I buy not you know, I mean,
576
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:28.680
I know there's nothing to say that you have to
577
00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:32.240
have kids. I mean that's your choice.
578
00:29:32.279 --> 00:29:33.920
Well, it'd be a shame if I didn't pass down
579
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:36.680
my beauty intelligence to the next generation.
580
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:41.680
So you are so right, And with that, thank you,
581
00:29:42.119 --> 00:29:44.480
Thank you so much for joining us on this week's
