- 0:23Speaker 1: is Dear Chelsea. I've been clearing my throat for about
- 0:26Speaker 1: four and a half months, so I am going to
- 0:28Speaker 1: have to get a esophagus X ray esophageal X ray
- 0:33Speaker 1: to find out what the fund is in my throat.
- 0:35Speaker 1: It's probably a colonel of cannabis anyway. Actually, it's really funny.
- 0:40Speaker 1: My dad. This is not really funny. It's just a
- 0:42Speaker 1: weird story in my family. My dad once inhaled a
- 0:45Speaker 1: kernel of popcorn into his lung and he did that
- 0:49Speaker 1: for a while, so hopefully it's not popcorn. I had
- 0:51Speaker 1: to get like scoped out, and the doctor like almost
- 0:55Speaker 1: gave up. He's like, I don't see. He's like, I
- 0:56Speaker 1: know there is popcorn in my lung. You know that's
- 0:59Speaker 1: funny because I I try not to smoke weed that
- 1:01Speaker 1: much anymore because of this, and I think it's weed related,
- 1:04Speaker 1: which it's not. I still have some sort of acid
- 1:06Speaker 1: reflux or anyway, I smoked a little joint last night
- 1:10Speaker 1: when Joe and I got home from Malibu. We actually
- 1:12Speaker 1: went to go see John Lovett's who was the person
- 1:14Speaker 1: who introduced Joe and me like seventeen years ago, and
- 1:18Speaker 1: he's been taking credit for our romance ever since. So
- 1:20Speaker 1: I said we should invite him to know Boo Malibu,
- 1:22Speaker 1: which is where we had some dinner, and he was
- 1:24Speaker 1: very excited to be out. Nice yea, that's very Yeah.
- 1:28Speaker 1: I think we're all excited to be out after two years.
- 1:32Speaker 1: This is a little mini episode because we are on
- 1:34Speaker 1: hiatus for three weeks, but I just want we have
- 1:36Speaker 1: an update from some we do, from someone who has
- 1:40Speaker 1: called into the show, and we wanted to share that
- 1:41Speaker 1: with you guys. Yes, it's really exciting. This one is
- 1:45Speaker 1: from Sarah. She wrote in a while back. She was
- 1:48Speaker 1: having trouble taking compliments about the fact that she had
- 1:52Speaker 1: adopted a couple of kids and was when we talked
- 1:55Speaker 1: to her in the protom adopting a new one. She said,
- 1:58Speaker 1: I've been able to use the advice Chelsea gave me
- 2:00Speaker 1: when given compliments about my kids, and it's been great
- 2:03Speaker 1: to have something deeper than thank you to say in return.
- 2:06Speaker 1: One conversation I was not expecting to have was with
- 2:09Speaker 1: my youngest, who was just recently adopted. It was about
- 2:13Speaker 1: a month after Chelsea and I spoke, and me and
- 2:15Speaker 1: my little were downstairs picking up his toys. He told
- 2:19Speaker 1: me that he often thinks about how lucky and grateful
- 2:21Speaker 1: he is to have found our family, and how he
- 2:24Speaker 1: sometimes worries that he's only in our lives because COVID
- 2:27Speaker 1: happened and we were home anyway. With a piece of
- 2:32Speaker 1: my heart breaking inside, I thought about what to respond with,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and then Chelsea's advice hit me. I said to him,
- 2:38Speaker 1: I love that you're grateful for us, and you need
- 2:41Speaker 1: to know we're grateful for you too. You are here
- 2:44Speaker 1: because you are my purpose, and I was put on
- 2:46Speaker 1: this earth to share your joy and to help you
- 2:49Speaker 1: share yours. He looked at me and his eyes got
- 2:52Speaker 1: so big, and he said, while I've never been anyone's
- 2:55Speaker 1: purpose before, does that mean we're meant to be? Not
- 2:58Speaker 1: just that we were forced be? As we talked, I
- 3:02Speaker 1: thought more about our conversation and said, it's great for
- 3:05Speaker 1: me to be able to be good at something, and
- 3:07Speaker 1: I'm so happy that you think I'm good at being
- 3:10Speaker 1: your mom. Oh my god, what a tear girl. That
- 3:14Speaker 1: conversation with him will never leave my heart. And I
- 3:17Speaker 1: felt like I was armed with the best thing to
- 3:19Speaker 1: say because of my talk with Chelsea. This was not
- 3:21Speaker 1: the application I expected to use her advice in, but
- 3:24Speaker 1: it sure was an awesome one. I cannot wait to
- 3:27Speaker 1: see her on August thirteen in Calgary. I'll be the
- 3:30Speaker 1: girl in the head to toe, ask Chelsea Merch, laughing
- 3:33Speaker 1: my ass off. I'm sure. Thanks again for reaching out
- 3:36Speaker 1: and looking forward to chatting, asked Chelsea. So, I mean, honestly,
- 3:41Speaker 1: you had me with your letter and then you know
- 3:44Speaker 1: we had to clarify at the beginning. I love it.
- 3:47Speaker 1: I love it. Oh my god, that was so sweet.
- 3:51Speaker 1: What an impact everybody can have, you know, like anyone
- 3:54Speaker 1: who's listening, you can have an impact on somebody just
- 3:56Speaker 1: by like sitting with them and listening to them and
- 3:58Speaker 1: giving them advice or like giving them strength, you know,
- 4:02Speaker 1: to move on in the direction of like being empowered
- 4:05Speaker 1: or sitting in your power like, what are you doing? Well?
