  Speaker 2: When he has to do our podcast. We really feel
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: for him.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: By the way, I meant to say, when Ali was
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: doing the podcast, you guys had the scrubbing and mic flags,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: and I was like, why don't I get those when
• 2:48

• 3:03
  Speaker 3: yet to see it.
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: Mike flagged.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I think they go on these though, or they'd have
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: to interchange them, or you can take these off. I
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: think it's just too much work for Anyonet to put
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: how to do it? Let's guesses I didn't know we
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: had them from the studio.
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: Okay, where are they?
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: John in the heavy do you mind grabbing the mic?
• 3:23

• 3:27
  Speaker 5: my mic on our break.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: We're gonna do it on our break. Okay, but we're
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: gonna get them. So let's start with a dear. We
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: have deer Bonia today.
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: We treated with respect. There's some respect on our name.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more. We're gonna do emails and I'm
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: gonna start while we're waiting for those.
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: Rebecca's just going right in nothing to share, Like, wait.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: So you're trying to say you want to hear about
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: me when I was ready to get started. But you
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: don't have anything to share yourself.
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: I'd like to know what's happening with the wedding.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: What's how are wedding? Yes, nothing, there's nothing to share.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: We were actually going.
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: To go to see there's some some.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Locations and take a trip somewhere, but we're not going
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: there anymore. We're going to Thailand, and I'm very excited
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: about Thailand. But we're not going to get married in Thailand. So,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I mean I could, I could scout, but I feel
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: like asking everyone to go to Thailand would be a
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: really big ass.
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah that's quite the ass.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: So but I am excited about Thailand. I've never been before,
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: very excited. Yeah, I'm excited for you.
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: So I have to get a guess host for that.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: I yes, yeah, I think for the wedding we are
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: kind of just I think location is going to be
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: a big deal, but and then figuring out time of
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: year that we want to do it. But that's kind
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: of the main things that we have to figure out,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: and then everything else will just be the Both of
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: us do not like making decisions. Both of us have
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: like decision paralysis. So can I help.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: I' I mean like once we get going, Yeah, are
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: you gonna have a wedding party like a bridal party?
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think I'll have them stand up with
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: me because I don't know. It's also you have to think.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: We have to think of different things in terms of
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: how we walk down the aisle, because do we want
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: to come at the same time. Do we want to
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: meet in the middle instead of you know, one walking
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: down and being at the end. So depending on what
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: our venue looks like, we have those things to think about.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: And then I don't think I would have our I
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: liked what we did for yours, Like we walked up there,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: stood with you, and then we sat for the ceremony
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: because beginning to sit during the ceremony is so nice,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: because yeah, it's very nerve wracking standing up and not
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: making sure you don't lock your legs and yeah, it's
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: just like a lot and you get to like relax
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: and hear the vowels and yeah, it was fun. So
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: we'll definitely have a wedding party bridle party. We've gone
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: back and forth on Bachelor, right if we want to
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: do it together separately, I'm team step brit She wants
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: to do it together, but it kind of depends on
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: what we do because we share a lot of friends.
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: So I wouldn't want multiple people to have to do
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: multiple trips, you know. So that's one thing too.
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: We thought about doing a joint too, did you, uh huh.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it's it is. There is a difference
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: because we're both women, and so there is kind of
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: just like a big slumber party. Yeah.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah. It got like weird because I was like, we
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: were going to do like a big trip.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: We were going to like a big trip joint and
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: just like go like all out, and it got like
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: I was like, well, I think I would have to
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: have my my girlfriend. Like all of his friends are married,
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: so I was like, we'd have to have them bring
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: their wives because it's like a weird it would be
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: a weird trip, oh to like all of my like
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: friends and not have the wives there. And then I
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: was like, so then I would have to have my
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: friends bring their significant others. And then I was like
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: then it's just like half of our wedding, right, So
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: I was like, ah, yeah, this is not it.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So those are the that's where we're at
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: so far. On any decisions or thoughts so far.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: Well, if I can be of service in any.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Way, oh my gosh, and I will absolutely utilize you
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: because when it comes to weddings, I don't think you're
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: LARPer or unk.
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: You're pretty helpful, thank you.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: And I have no like agenda, Like it's not like
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: I have this like vision that I want to like
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: push on you, like I just want to help you,
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: like i'll help you.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: I'm very decisive in what I know I don't want.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: So that's good because I I if I see something,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: I can be like, no, I don't want that, or
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I don't like that. So those are the things. It's
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: just coming down to chairs and stuff. I'm gonna be like,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: that's taking space in my brain trying to pick.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: What we did it in one day.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know. You just have to sit down
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: and lock in.
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah. They set up a bunch of different tables and
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: you're like I like that, I don't like that. I
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: like that.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: Right, we're right.

• 8:00
  Speaker 2: too chill. I didn't think you were too why do
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: you think you were too chill?
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Because there were some things that I did that I
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: feel like I was just doing to please other people.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: M And I'm like, I wish I would have just
• 8:13

  Speaker 2: We're all people pleasers at heart, we are, you know.
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's like that. I don't try not to do
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: things I'm gonna. I'm there's gonna be a balance of Okay,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: is this gonna Is this gonna be something I think
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: about if I do it and I didn't want to
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: do it? Or is it just I don't necessarily want
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: to do this, but is it easier for me to
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: just say yes? You know, it's just like weighing the
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: pros and cons, well, the pros and cons and the
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: weight of it, like is it something I mean to
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: think about it down the road, right, or am I

  Speaker 2: All right, let's get into some other people's problems.
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: All right, you want to do the first one?
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: Sure?
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: I love the first one.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very It's a very year towards you well
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: as you start it.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: From Anonymous dating a Jewish Man. I have been dating
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: a Jewish Man for about three months now. I come
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: from a Christian background and was curious if Tanya can
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: share more of her experience of how she learned the
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: culture and religion, especially at the beginning of the relationship.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: Anything you wish you had known at the start of
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: it all, and do her and Becca have any tips
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: or advice going into a relationship with different religious backgrounds.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Thank you for bringing me joy and laughter every single week,
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: super cute, cute, you know, it's so funny. Again, I
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: get asked this question a lot about like inner faith relationships,
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: but like at the end of the day, it was
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: never about Robbie was never trying to get me to
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: like convert, and I was never trying to get him
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: to I don't know if you call it convert, convert whatever.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: It was more just about like learning. I got this
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: book actually from Nancy Spielberg that was called The Newish
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: Jewish Encyclopedia or something.
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: She like sent it to me and I read.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: It and it was like very digestible like blurbs of things.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: That's where I kind of like got my start. And
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: then as like the Jewish holidays, like you'll start noticing
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: when you're dating him as a Jewish holidays like roll
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: through and you go, if you start going to like
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Satyrs and stuff, you'll just naturally learn the traditions and
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: the ceremonies and like all the things that they do.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: And so that's kind of how I learned. Just I'm
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: still learning stuff to this day. I mean there's so much. Yeah,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: but that's kind of that's kind of how we did it.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: It was never tips or advice going into a relationship
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: with different religious backgrounds.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: I think just like respecting and honoring each other's like
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: wishes and what you know, Like Probably's always asking me,
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: like if he wants me, if he wants if you
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: want to go to church on Easter?
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: Like you know what I mean.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Like he's always there for me if I want to
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: do something, and I'm always there. And we celebrate all
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: the Jewish holidays too, and same with like Christmas and Hanukah,
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: we do both.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I Haley didn't grow up religious, so
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: but she's always been. You know, it's the same thing
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: on Easter, She's always like, do you want to go
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: to church? Or She's always known that my faith was important.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: But I think my faith in general has changed a lot,
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: so even just being in a relationship with Haley, my
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: faith just has changed a lot then how I was raised.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: And I think it all comes down to respect and
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: giving people space to express their own beliefs and their
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: faith because faith is such a personal thing and I
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: think having expectations that it's going to look the exact
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: same as yours, even if it's the same religion, I
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: think is not realistic because I think it's all different,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: and there's going to be things where you align or
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: you don't align, and I think being able to have
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: a least respectful dialogue about it is what's going to
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: be the most important thing. But I think there's so
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: much beauty and learning about where other people come from
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: and other religions and getting to experience something different, and
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: then how you grew up as such a gift in
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: my opinion.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think so too.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I also think do you follow Raven from The Bachelor.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: She's married to She was grew up like Southern Christian
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: and she's married to Adam from Bachelor in Paradise.
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: His name's Ringing a Bell.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: He's Jewish. Oh, and they're so cute. Do they celebrate
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: all the holidays?
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like so crazy and like the for our
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: the first time Robbie had ever decorated a Christmas tree
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: was like our first Christmas that we spent together.
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: Like he's like, I've never done this before. This is
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: so fun. Yeah, it's like, you're that's so crazy.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. There's so much fun and beauty
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: and joy and getting to learn and do those things
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: for the first time.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: And he like didn't know, like, so he like brought over.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: He went and bought ornaments. Oh yeah, because he thought
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: you were supposed to bring them over, and he like
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: had matching ones he'd bought like pears, and he's like
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: the girl at the store told me that you have
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: to buy them in like pears.
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: I was like, Oh, really cute, it's really cute. We
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: still have them, of course. Yeah.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Okay. This is from anonymous career or stay at home mom.

  Speaker 2: and most of the parenting falls on me, while I
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: also work full time from home. I love my job
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: and have spent years building my career, traveling to conferences
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: and making contacts throughout my field, but lately I feel
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: like I'm constantly juggling work and the kids and doing
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: neither particularly well. Thankfully, we can afford for me to
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: become a stay at home mom. Part of me would
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: be relieved, but part of me feels like I'd be
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: throwing away everything I worked for because his career became
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: more demanding. To complicate things, my husband really wants a
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: third child. I've always pictured three too, but right now,
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine adding a baby when I already feel
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: stretched so thin. Do I step away from a career
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: I love while my kids are little, or keep pushing
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: through and hope this is just a hard season. I'm
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: so fascinated by the I might ruffle some feathers here.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: I'm fascinated by a mom who primarily takes care of
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: the kids and is debating whether she should step stay
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: at home and leave her career. And yet the husband
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: having the audacity to put any sort of pressure on
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: having another child when his career is the reason why
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: she is stretched thin. He's not the one having to
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: think about stuff. Why don't you ask him if he
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: would like to take care of his.
• 15:32
  Speaker 5: Career, would he like to carry the baby as well?
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, maybe I'm maybe I'm reading this wrong, but
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: it sounds like they've had a discussion that three was
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: the goal. But I think you should very strongly stand
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: up against needing a third one right now. I think
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: there's room to grow the family, But I think right now,
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: you figure out what works best for you. I think
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: there's a world where I don't think anyone can do
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: anything one hundred percent multiple tis like, I don't think
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: that if you have a career and kids that you
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: can It's just as a human being, even if you're
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: the best of the best at doing it, you can't
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: give one hundred percent to everything you do when you're
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: doing multiple things right. And I think that there's a
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: lot of guilt, especially with the moms, because we want
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: to be the best at everything, especially if it comes
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: how I feel. I can't even imagine what it feels
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: like with kids. I want to do this with Phoebe.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: I feel like I want to be the best dog
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: mom I could be, And so there's this pressure, and
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: then you're you're also trying to give yourself the and
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: be the best at this other thing that you've built
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: and put so much time into, which is your career.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: You know, it's such a it's such a shitty position
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: that women have been put in because I just think, like,
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: I'm where I am now, right, and I'm like at
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: this age, but I think that for so many years.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: And again, I just got married, so it's not like
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: I was trying to have kids at thirty one thirty two,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: but I have thought I've had the thought of like
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: having a kid and going on maternity leave step in.
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: I've never stepped away from my career for more than
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: like a week, do you know what I mean? Yeah,
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: And I still have that sense of like, oh, you
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: know when you when you become pregnant, you obviously can't
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: do as much as you do. And then when you
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: go on maturnity leave, and then when you have a baby,
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: like you obviously want to like be a mother and
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: you want to be there and you want to be involved,
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: and you want to do all the things.
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: So like I see.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: Wanting to be a stay at home mom, do you
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: know what I mean? Because you want to be there
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: when your kids are that when time goes by so fast.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: So it's like I see that appeal. But then I
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: also think too, depending on what her career is, you
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: take your foot off the gas or you step off
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: that hamster wheel. It's really hard to get back on
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: as a woman, especially older as you get older. So
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: it's like my advice to you would be is there
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: any way that you can still somehow be Again, I
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: don't know what she does, but if there's some way
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: that you can still keep your foot in the room
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: in the door, do something part time, because I do
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: also think once your kids grow up, and I've seen
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: this because I just have I'm running in circles with
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: kids that are now, like you know, getting older, and
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: they don't need so much attention, and then you have
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: so much free time, and then you also feel like
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: you don't have purpose, and so I feel like having
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: your career is also very important in those later years
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: when your kids grow up. So I my advice, and
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: again this is just totally me, would be if there's
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: any way that you could have a combination of the two.
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: Be a stay at home mom, but also have some.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: Sort of foot in at work, if it's part time,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: if it's like again, I don't know what you do,
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: but like stepping back and scaling down, but not fully fully,
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: like closing the door.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Is there a world if you can afford to be
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: a stay at home mom where you could hire someone
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: that could come help you during the week with kids,
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: so you could give like three days a week that
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: they're helped. Someone like a nanny is someone helping with
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: the kids while you're putting one hundred percent into work
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: or focus being able to focus, and that way you're
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: there with the kids. But like when you have to work,
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: you're able to give it your full attention since you
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: if he's making enough money for you to quit completely,
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: I feel like there may be could be a world
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: where you could afford to hire someone to come and help. Yeah,
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: because I have in the same boat. I'm like, it
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: doesn't sound like she wants she doesn't feel like she
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: doesn't want to work anymore. Like it doesn't sound like
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: her dream is to be a stay at home mom.
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: Right, But I think she feels like of like.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Experiencing the things with their kids while they're small one time. Yes, gosh,
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I I don't know. I would maybe see
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: if you can it's some help, and see if that
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: helps you and see if you like having the what.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: No, I just like, I imagine this is such a
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: hard thing because like I too on the same mood
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: as Sonny, like I, and she's just a dog, you know,
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: Like I'm like, I want to be like I want
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: to make sure she.
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: Has the best day every day. And I'm like, that's
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: literally a dog. Like I don't even know what I'm
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: going to be like.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: But I would. I would have a conversation with your husband,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: And I don't think he meant it to be selfish
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: or anything. I just think he probably hasn't thought of
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: what a third kid would mean for you, and how
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: it sounds like you're already stretched. Then, based on what
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: you literally said, I'm stretched, then I think you just
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: have a conversation, put that on pause and just figure
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: out what's happening right now.
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but good luck, good luck. I'm sorry.
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that was helpful advice. We gave
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: some input.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: We have an email from a listener named Sarah, and
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: I just feel like we might have different opinions on this. Oh,
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: so we'll get into it when we come back.
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: Nice, We're back, We're back.
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: This is from Sarah, my now former manager, and I
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: actually started at a company at the same time as coworkers.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: She eventually worked her way up to becoming my manager,
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: but through it all we stayed really close friends. However,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: I was recently let go and she didn't give me
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: any kind of warning. She says that as my manager,
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: she couldn't tell me what was happening before became official.
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: Career wise, I'm actually okay. I think this may be
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: the push I needed to move on and find something better.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: So please don't feel bad for me, But friendship wise,
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: I'm heartbroken. I understand she had a professional responsibility, but
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: I can't get past knowing that one of my closest
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: friends knew I was about to lose my job and
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: acted completely normal around me. She keeps reaching out to
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: me to try and check in, But I just, honestly,
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: but I just honestly am so upset. I haven't even
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: answered her. Am I crazy for thinking this could end
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: our friendship? Am I being unfair for taking this personally?
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: What do you think? Becca?
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Thank you for the emotionally for Sarah. Yeah, you were
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: really emoting in that. I think that my mind switched
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: halfway through the email because at first I thought, oh, like,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: this was really not cool of her friend, Because even
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: if y'all were in a position of like power dynamics
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: being off, I still would be like, Hey, I just
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: want to give your heads up, like people are getting
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: laid off and it might be coming, Like I would
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: hope that that would be something you or I would
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: do for each other. M The other part of me, though,
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: realizes that she was probably put in a really hard
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: position and had to separate the personal relationship from the
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: professional relationship, and I think that her trying to reach
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: out and check in makes me think that it was
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: really hard for her too, and I think she feels
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: I think she feels the weight of it being bad
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: on the friend's side. But I also think she was
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: put in a tough position. And that's why they say
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: don't work with your friends. You know, we don't have
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: to worry about that. I would be very blunt and
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: honest with you, but I do think if you're in
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: like a corporate world, there is you do have to
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: find a separation, especially when you're in a different position,
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: a higher up position, you know, because now she also
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: has to think about her own job and her security.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: So I think it's just hard for both of y'all.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: I think you're both valid for she's valid for having
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: you do what she did and do it the way
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: that she did it, because I think it was a
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: tough position. And I also I appreciate that she's trying
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: to reach out to you, because I mean, she cares
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: about you. She isn't just like, well, whatever, screw her.
• 23:58
  Speaker 5: So, yeah, she should have reached out to you before
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: you got fired.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, so your take is she should have told her, Yes.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: She should have told you, she should have given you
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: some sort of heads up.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: Even if she didn't tell you directly, like, hey, you're
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: getting fired, she could have said exactly what you said, Hey,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: I'm hearing there's layoffs.
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't be.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Surprised if you are you know, you or I or
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: whatever however you want to say.
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: You don't have to say it exactly.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: But if this is your friend, I think personally like,
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: but she shouldn't give like heads up.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: End of a friendship type of I don't know.
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: It's hard to say, Becca, it's hard to say. It's
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: hard to say if.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: She hadn't reached if she hasn't if she hadn't reached
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: out since it happened, I would be like, Yeah, maybe
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: she's not a great friend, but I think she's trying
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: and she probably felt very conflicted on it, and so
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: I would I would give her the opportunity to talk.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: And if she is defensive and like, doesn't offer more condolences,
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: because you're the one who really got the end up
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: the stick here, you know, I think that it's I
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: think it's if she's your really, if she's really your friend,
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: I think it warrants a converse and you can be hurt.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: You can say hey, I'm really hurt and I haven't
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: wanted to talk to you because I'm mad at you.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: That's okay. Like relationships should go through things where you
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: have to have hard conversations.
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like when I had to tell you I was
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: upset you didn't tell me you were going to Taylor's
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: this wedding.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Yes. Yeah, they have to go through hardships to overcome things.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: And this is a hardship that you all are facing.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: And I think either you move forward as friends or
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: you choose not to hear her out. But I think
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: it's worth hearing her out. If she's a good friend
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: to you.
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: I say cut her.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: Oh my, there's no way you say cut her.
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: Cut her?
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Do you mean that? Are you LARPing?
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: You're such an unc.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: Do you mean that? Are you LARPing? Wow? Sarah? I
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: think if I.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: Were fired and my best friend knew and didn't tell
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: me and give me some sort of heads up, it
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: would be.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: But after all the time through, if I was in
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: a position where they were like, you cannot tell her,
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: or that puts you in harms a way for your
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: job security, and I didn't tell you, and then I
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: reached out and I was like, I love you. I
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: feel horrible for what happened, and like I know you
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: probably don't trust me right now and feel hurt, but
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: like I love you and I had to separate and
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: trust you again because that's a professional choice. That wasn't
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: a personal thing.
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: I just always think personal over professional.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: Well, not everyone thinks the same as you, and I
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: think to not give your friend who you've been friends
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: with at least a conversation. She's hold us up face.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: I was like, you know what, like you're trying to
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: hold in a yawn. I was trying to like close
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: my lips so it didn't like open.
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: Wow.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: That was a challenge and like mocial gymnastics, but.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: I help it in Sarah, give her a chance, be
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: a good friend, be a good friend. Even though she
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: heard you give her a chance.
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: Wait will you do?
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny says bathroom wipes give
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: me the ick. I just went on my first vacation
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: with my boyfriend and it was honestly great, except he
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: brought a pack of flishable wipes for the bathroom. I
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: know this is objectively good hygiene, but something about seeing
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: that pack sitting next to our toilet all week gave
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: me the biggest egg. I couldnt explain it, but it
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: sent me into another universe. Am I completely insane? Please
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: tell me Robbie or Haley has done something equally harmless
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: that randomly gives you the ick. I feel like the
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: answer is no, but please help me. I really like
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: this man, so please talk me off the ledge before
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: I let bathroom wipes ru in a perfectly good relationship.
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: This is not about the bathroom wipes.
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: Oh you just think she has the ick?
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Jenny, you have the ick because.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: Bathroom wipes should be a green flat.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: Yes, Like he takes care of his butthole after he poops,
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: like amazing love that for him?
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: For you? Yeah? Much?
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: No, I just something about the word butthole sent me
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: until I go another orbit. I don't know. I just.
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: Over a second.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah I Unfortunately, can you come back from this?
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah? I don't know. I don't know. Unfortunately, I don't
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: know because he.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: Just packed his little his little wife used to go.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: Because like, if I'm being honest, every like probably icky
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: thing that Robbie did and our relationship, like I found
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: so adorable or so cute or so charming.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: I will say when it is, I would get the
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: ick from everything someone did like they're pinky Now could
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: be too long and I'd be like, no, so, but
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: I do believe in coming back from an egg, I don't.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: I do, Jenny.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: I think I think that this is bigger than the
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: bathroom wipes, and you have got to go.
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: I think that the episode is cut. It cut the friendship.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: You're cutting too. You're being a little too cutthroat just
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: because you're married. Now you're old.
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: You would never do this, You're right, right, that's so true.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, here's the thing. I think bathroom wipes, even though
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: again I get it him bringing his little wipeies along
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: on the trip and setting them mout like it's.
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: Him, like bringing like pooperie and like putting it next
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: to the toilet.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: It's a thoughtful gesture and it's clean. It's hygiene, and
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: that at the end of the day is a green flag.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: You know. Yeah. I think you just need to reframe
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: how you see the wipes.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: Maybe see him as a clean butthole. Are we allowed
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: to say that, like John keeps marking things down? Are
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: we not allowed to say butthole?
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: I think but whole spine. It's anatomy, okay, and we
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: are a Gray's Anatomy podcast exactly. So yeah, I think
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: maybe there's a cool container you can put the wipes
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: in a warmer.
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: That would actually be amazing.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: I believe you can come back from this ick, But
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: I also cluse.
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: Him yourself, ask him if you could have one? Can
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: I borrow one of your wipes?
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: I also think when I met Haley, I did not.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: I'm like still to this day, it takes I don't
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: even know if I can list anything that's ever given
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: me the ick. So and I was the ick queen
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: everything in the eck. Yeah, So this might not be
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: your person.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: I just I just don't think it's your I mean
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: because I too, like I got the ick from a
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: guy drinking a drink out of a straw and he
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: was very hot and handsome and charming and great job,
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: and he sucked on that straw and I was like.
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: Boner gone wow.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: So okay. My truth is, Jenny, I think you can
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: come back from this, and I also think that this
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: might not be your person because this is in theory,
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: should be a positive thing. Yeah, And that's all we
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: have to offer. On that note, that's too bad. It's
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: too bad.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: This is from anonymous. My friend annoys me. One of
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: my best friends is annoying this out of me, and
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: I hate.
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: Feeling this way.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: I love her and we see each other weekly, but
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: certain personality quirks really get under my skin. Elisha's details
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: about her career and finds ways to work stories about
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: men hitting on her into conversations. She's also asked hypothetical
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: questions that are obviously about problems in her relationships, sometimes
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: right in front of her boyfriend, who just sits there uncomfortably.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: I think a lot of it comes from insecurity, and
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: I don't think she's being malicious. She genuinely seems to
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: think she's being more subtle than she is. But these
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: little things make me disproportionately irritated. Is it normal to
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: be this annoyed by someone you love? How do I
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: know what's worth addressing and what I just need to
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: accept about her?
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Oh? This is so hard.
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: I don't even just annoy you. I think people can,
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: like I was.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: Gonna say, but when it's your best friend, that's different.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: I'm sure I've annoyed you before.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: Never, no chance, never in my life you're saying that
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: with the You're saying that with a smirk on your face,
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: which leads me to believe you're lying.
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: You're LARPing.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Every single person in my life has annoyed me at
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: some point in my life. I'm just saying, like being
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: having being annoyed by someone isn't a long term thing.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: But this sounds did.
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: Annoy about with you?
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's just like neither here nor there.
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: It's here nor there. What this is exactly what we're
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: talking about. What have you been annoyed about?
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: Like you're getting mad about Taylor Swift? I found annoying
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: the wedding. That's valid you you got mad and I
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: found it annoying.
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: When else have I annoyed you?
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: No other time?
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: Not ever?
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: Ever?
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: Lying, LARPer, when have I annoyed you never?
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: That's so not true.
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: It's like the truth.
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: When you're talking about Taylor's wedding, I would.
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: Say it didn't annoy me. That really hurt my feelings deeply.
• 33:45
  Speaker 5: There's a difference.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: I think there's so many difference towards like getting hurt
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: and I would say I I am not as like sensitive,
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: so I find things that would be hurtful to you annoying.
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like I don't. I never have found you annoying.
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: I have found you to be hurtful, deeply worse.
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: Actually, yeah, it's hard being on this side of things.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well I'm sorry, you have to be my friend anyways. Yeah, anyways,
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: I think this is a person Like I think this
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: is a personality. And if Tanya had a personality that
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: annoyed me, I don't think i'd be friends with her.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: No, I don't think it's a personality. I think I
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: think that sometimes people can go through annoying phases. Like
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: let's say, like let's say one of your friends goes
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: through a breakup and they're like, I'm sure I've been
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: so annoying after a breakup and I want to like
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: go out like.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: Crazy after the break up. Yeah, annoying.
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: But that's what I'm saying, Like people go through like
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: different seasons of life and different emotions, and like this
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: might just be something that like she's just being annoying
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: right now because you said she's insecure about something, so
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: it's like right now she might just be like annoying
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: and you just step back, you say you see her weekly,
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: maybe take it back to buy you know, to say
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: bi weekly. That's more twice a month, you know, like
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: every other week you see her, and just like just
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: slow it down on seeing her for a bit while
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: she's going through this phase, and then just jump right
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: back in.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: She said, certain personality quirks really good under my skin.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: So it sounds like it's a personality.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: It just seems like they're heightened. I think I'm taking
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: this as a momentary lapse of something else that's going on.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: It's not like so you just don't see each other
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: as much, give it a little time. Distance makes the
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: heart grow fall exactly. So maybe you just need some
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: space from her right now. I don't think you even
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: need to tell her that. I think you just yeah,
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: when she wants to hang.
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: Out, Yeah, she wants to get a drink, I'm busy.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: But how about next week?
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: Great, and you just kick the can.
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: Okay, kick the can.
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: Kick the can.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: Doesn't that mean die?
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: No, it just means like when you kick the can,
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: you're just like prolonging, prolonging, I see, Okay, larving that
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: may say.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, I think we're misusing that now. Okay, yeah, I
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: think I would get some space, clear your head, clear
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: the energy. It is hard to be around someone who's annoying,
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: annoying but also talks about relationship problems in front their boyfriend,
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: because it puts you in It makes everyone feel awkward, intense,
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: and that's a lot of energy to absorb and try
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: to give. Yeah, so just take some space. And I
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: also think if it continues, if it's not just a phase,
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: maybe this person's cutter. Just like we get sum this
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: podcast up, we could just erase all the advice given
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: and just it's Yeah, why are you so cut throat today?
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: Why are you feeling fed up like this?
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: I'm feeling fed up?
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think just because I don't know.
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: I'm just like tired when I'm tired, I'm.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: Just Yeah, why why even try?
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Why I try? Why try?
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: I know?
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: It's why not?
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Why not? Yeah? Today I did a pilates class
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: this money again. I did a heated plates class like
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: a Matt class where at this place near my house.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: And I was late because I couldn't find parking. And
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: I almost just ate the money because I didn't want
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: to go in late.
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: I done star because I was I was finding parking
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: for ten minutes. I was ten minutes late because I
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: was finding parking. I was like, I might as well
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: just go home, and then I was like, I paid
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: for the class.
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: I know, well, I wasn't that late, but it was
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: just the idea of walking in while it was dark
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: and they had already started, not knowing where my mat
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: was going to be. But I did it.
