SPEAKER_00: Welcome to season two of Laugh Love Lost.
0:16
SPEAKER_00: Season one was so extraordinary, and I'm so excited to be back here to kick off the start of our second season.
0:24
SPEAKER_00: Honestly, I cannot think of a better guest to kick off the season than Emily.
0:30
SPEAKER_00: Emily Phillips has had more eras than most people have had careers.
0:36
SPEAKER_00: She's been a teacher, an attorney, a stay-at-home mom.
0:40
SPEAKER_00: There was apparently a sourdough era, which we're absolutely going to need to discuss.
0:45
SPEAKER_00: And now she's a Pilates instructor and a content creator.
0:49
SPEAKER_00: And her online platform has exploded.
0:53
SPEAKER_00: In large part because she's willing to say the things that most people are afraid to say.
0:59
SPEAKER_00: She's even caught the attention of People magazine along the way.
1:03
SPEAKER_00: She talks openly about body inclusivity, motherhood, mental health, judgment, confidence, and what it means to take up space, both physically and online.
1:15
SPEAKER_00: She's a mom of three, a Taylor Swift superfan.
1:19
SPEAKER_00: Super fan.
1:21
SPEAKER_00: An admitted impulse control offender, and someone who describes herself as raw, honest, and very much what you see is what you get.
1:32
SPEAKER_00: Apparently we ran in the same circles for years without actually meeting one another until my cousin Gabrielle finally connected us.
1:41
SPEAKER_00: So what better way to start season two?
1:44
SPEAKER_00: Miss Emily Phillips, welcome to Laugh Love Law.
1:48
SPEAKER_00: Thank you so much.
1:49
SPEAKER_00: I'm so excited to be here and kick it with you, and we're gonna have fun.
1:53
SPEAKER_00: Yes, we are.
1:55
SPEAKER_00: So I often start with this question, and I'm gonna lead my interview off with this one.
2:01
SPEAKER_00: We know who you are on paper, we know what you do, but what's something that never makes it into your professional bio?
2:09
SPEAKER_01: Honestly, the the conglomeration of everything that you just said, like everything put together, like my life is so chaotic, and I think that it looks like a neatly packaged, like gift online, and it is so far from that.
2:30
SPEAKER_01: It is chaos.
2:31
SPEAKER_01: Is it organized chaos?
2:33
SPEAKER_01: Not even.
2:33
SPEAKER_01: I love that.
2:35
SPEAKER_01: Like I wanna be type A, but I'm so type B, but I I feel like I'm type A, so I just keep saying I'm I'm very organized and very type A.
2:45
SPEAKER_01: It's not.
2:46
SPEAKER_00: I think as an attorney, people want to be able to say that their attorney is type A until they get to know a type A attorney and then find them to be boring and you you can't be a type A attorney.
3:02
SPEAKER_01: Like there's too much going on.
3:05
SPEAKER_01: I feel like it's case by case you're triaging, you're like, Alright, this is coming up.
3:10
SPEAKER_01: Here's the deadline.
3:11
SPEAKER_01: Like you're just doing damage control 24-7.
3:14
SPEAKER_00: Now you said something in your questionnaire.
3:16
SPEAKER_00: You said what you see is what you get.
3:18
SPEAKER_00: Tell us a little bit about that.
3:20
SPEAKER_01: So I think that being raw and honest is how I've been able to connect with so many people.
3:29
SPEAKER_01: Like my social media is obviously curated to an extent because that's social media.
3:35
SPEAKER_01: Like I'm picking clips of my day, of my life to share as a lifestyle creator.
3:42
SPEAKER_01: But what you see is what you get.
3:44
SPEAKER_01: What I mean by that is like I'm honest on my platform with how I feel, who I am, and that's never something I'm like pretending to be on social media.
3:55
SPEAKER_01: Um I feel like just the raw honesty is the only way that I know how to be.
4:01
SPEAKER_00: It's it's incredibly relatable when you're raw and honest.
4:06
SPEAKER_00: I I have become, I think, more open and honest about who I am and what I do, but I think in a professional setting, it's still somewhat performance.
4:20
SPEAKER_00: Totally.
4:21
SPEAKER_00: Um, okay, another question.
4:24
SPEAKER_00: You told us that you let people into your life, but only parts of it, only segments of it, and then people feel like they know the real you.
4:34
SPEAKER_00: How can those two things exist simultaneously?
4:38
SPEAKER_00: That you're living raw and authentically, but yet people are only seeing a part of your life.
4:43
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so I think that's something that since I've started content creation full-time, that I've struggled with the most.
4:50
SPEAKER_01: Like I I'm a lifestyle creator, so largely my platform is about my life.
4:56
SPEAKER_01: My my life as a mom, a Pilates instructor, I have very young kids, and so I feel like I am able to set boundaries with what I allow online.
5:09
SPEAKER_01: Um, but that being said, like it's I think that because I'm posting all the time, people know or think that they know my whole life.
5:19
SPEAKER_01: And like, oh, she went to go get a coffee this morning, and then she went to go teach, and then she was home with her kids.
5:25
SPEAKER_01: Like, no, I filmed about 30 minutes of my day, edited it, clipped it together, and hit post, probably more suddenly than I should have, because I've definitely made an editing mistake or two.
5:37
SPEAKER_01: But it's really a difficult thing when people think that they know you, and since I've started this, I was talking about this with a friend last night.
5:50
SPEAKER_01: No one asks how I am anymore, which is so crazy.
5:54
SPEAKER_01: Like close family, close friends, like I I think because people think that they know me and what I'm up to, they don't feel the need to ask how I am, which is a hard and weird thing.
6:09
SPEAKER_00: So I'm gonna do something that I've never done before and I probably will never do again, but I'm gonna flip my cue card around and I'm gonna show you what it says on it.
6:19
SPEAKER_00: And it says, Emily, how are you?
6:23
SPEAKER_00: You see that?
6:24
SPEAKER_00: You said that nobody said that nobody asks you that.
6:27
SPEAKER_00: Okay, do you see that?
6:29
SPEAKER_00: Emily.
6:29
SPEAKER_00: Crazy.
6:30
SPEAKER_00: How are you?
6:31
SPEAKER_00: And I'm asking you that because you said that people don't ever do that.
6:35
SPEAKER_00: And I get that.
6:36
SPEAKER_00: I think you get the generic how are you?
6:40
unknown: Yes.
6:40
SPEAKER_00: When people ask that and they don't really want to hear that your kids got up 15 minutes late for school or that you couldn't find matching socks.
6:49
SPEAKER_00: I think it's the generic how are you where you're supposed to say, good, good, or fine, how are you?
6:55
SPEAKER_00: But when was the last time someone actually asked you that question and wanted a real response?
7:01
SPEAKER_01: Honestly, Thursday, my therapist.
7:06
SPEAKER_01: But other than that, it's been such a long time, and so I appreciate you asking that.
7:12
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
7:13
SPEAKER_01: And my answer is I'm good.
7:15
SPEAKER_01: I'm overwhelmed.
7:16
SPEAKER_01: I'm in a very weird season of life.
7:20
SPEAKER_01: I'm still pretty freshly postpartum.
7:23
SPEAKER_01: Um, a lot of my platforms started because I was struggling with postpartum depression, which I don't think is talked about nearly as much as it should be.
7:35
SPEAKER_01: Um, but I'm good.
7:37
SPEAKER_01: I'm managing.
7:38
SPEAKER_01: I'm using the tools at my disposal to make sure that I'm good because I don't get to, as a mom of three young ones, not be okay.
7:50
SPEAKER_01: Like I have to be.
7:51
SPEAKER_00: I don't think the people that have less than two children get this concept.
7:59
SPEAKER_00: When you're pregnant for the first time and you're tired, you take a nap.
8:05
SPEAKER_00: When you're pregnant for the second time and you're tired, you do not take a nap.
8:11
SPEAKER_00: And you have to be that super mom and get through the day and make sure your child has her goldfish and her toys and she's stimulated and all the rest of it.
8:23
SPEAKER_00: By the time you have a third child and you want to take a nap, you are just effing screwed.
8:30
SPEAKER_01: I my it's so true.
8:34
SPEAKER_01: My third child is such a third child.
8:38
SPEAKER_01: She is so go with the flow and like she kicks it.
8:42
SPEAKER_01: But my older two, they're 12 months apart.
8:45
SPEAKER_00: Wow.
8:46
SPEAKER_01: So that was a shock and really hard.
8:51
SPEAKER_01: Like I was just in a season of fatigue for years.
8:56
SPEAKER_02: Like you just didn't see it.
8:57
SPEAKER_01: I was pregnant, I was nursing, I got pregnant while nursing.
9:02
SPEAKER_01: Oh.
9:03
SPEAKER_01: Very surprisingly.
9:06
SPEAKER_01: And we just were like, my husband and I were like, we're we're just doing it.
9:11
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
9:12
SPEAKER_01: We're just gonna do it.
9:13
SPEAKER_01: So you have three under five.
9:15
SPEAKER_01: Three under five.
9:16
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, my son's four, Theo.
9:19
SPEAKER_01: My daughter Harlow is three, and my youngest just turned one.
9:24
SPEAKER_00: Oh.
9:25
SPEAKER_00: I'm tired just talking to you about your three children under the age of the children.
9:29
SPEAKER_01: I'm tired, but I have to say I am so blessed.
9:32
SPEAKER_01: They are the best kids, and like every mom's gonna say that, right?
9:36
SPEAKER_01: Like, your kids are the best.
9:38
SPEAKER_01: My kids are the best, objectively.
9:41
SPEAKER_00: Do you know?
9:42
SPEAKER_00: I think that there's I don't know if it's a defense mechanism or it's just magic, but two of my three deliveries were horrific.
9:51
SPEAKER_00: Like horrible, like extended stays in the hospital, horrible.
9:56
SPEAKER_00: I don't know if it's heaven sent or magic or something else, but isn't it amazing how that seems to be pushed under the rug or forgotten or like minimized by how much you love these little creatures?
10:11
SPEAKER_00: Yes.
10:11
SPEAKER_01: I I don't think it's like if you get injured badly and you you can know that you experience this pain, but you can't recall that, and I think that's like a brain mechanism to like protect ourselves.
10:25
SPEAKER_01: But birth trauma is so real and so not talked about.
10:30
SPEAKER_01: I mean, I went in, I was not one of those people that was like, I want to do this naturally.
10:34
SPEAKER_01: I was like, give me the drugs.
10:36
SPEAKER_01: Yes, yes, immediately sign me up.
10:38
SPEAKER_01: Like, I was wanting to make a reservation for my epidural before I got to the hospital.
10:44
SPEAKER_01: Um I went in, cheers, and I went into the hospital with a plan as one tries to do, and my epidural failed with my first.
10:58
SPEAKER_01: So I was petrified.
11:01
SPEAKER_01: Well, I'm I thought I was dying.
11:03
SPEAKER_01: And I and and then consequently, with my 12-month-apart children, yeah.
11:09
SPEAKER_01: I got pregnant again very quickly, very unexpectedly.
11:12
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
11:13
SPEAKER_01: She's a blessing, the best.
11:15
SPEAKER_01: Um, and I wouldn't change it for the world, but it I I forgot.
11:19
SPEAKER_00: Like, I I forgot how bad your mind protected you.
11:25
SPEAKER_00: I I I but I think your mind has to protect you, or women wouldn't get pregnant a second and third time because it's so my our our oldest Julia is gonna be 21.
11:37
SPEAKER_00: Best baby in the world, best baby.
11:40
SPEAKER_00: Like we were taking her to nice restaurants when she was an infant in a carrier, and you wouldn't know we had a baby with us.
11:48
SPEAKER_00: Then came Lily.
11:49
SPEAKER_00: Lily, who's the easiest kid now, was a terror.
11:54
SPEAKER_00: She was literally a terror.
11:55
SPEAKER_00: I used to fall asleep rocking her in her little cradle on my kitchen floor crying because she just wouldn't stop.
12:03
SPEAKER_00: And I think that if she would have come first, she would have been an only child.
12:08
SPEAKER_00: Because it was so exhausting.
12:09
SPEAKER_00: Not the birth trauma.
12:10
SPEAKER_00: She was a great pregnancy.
12:12
SPEAKER_00: It's everything after, it's everything after.
12:13
SPEAKER_00: It's that it's that, oh my god, let me sleep, child.
12:16
SPEAKER_01: It's I we have been, I mean, this is crazy to say, but like all of our kids make us want more kids.
12:24
SPEAKER_01: They've all been easy, they've all slept through the night from eight weeks.
12:28
SPEAKER_01: Oh wow, 12 hours.
12:30
SPEAKER_01: Oh, like dream, and I it's so life, it's life where you're like waiting for the ball to drop.
12:39
SPEAKER_01: Oh.
12:39
SPEAKER_01: And I'm like, when are we gonna get the child that makes us wanna be done?
12:44
SPEAKER_01: Oh and I'm young, like I'm 32, and I I think that I would like another child, which is you know, our third is a dream.
12:53
SPEAKER_01: She's definitely more needy than the other two.
12:55
SPEAKER_01: She's like wanting to be held all the time.
12:59
SPEAKER_01: Um, but she's like the best little sweet angel child.
13:04
SPEAKER_00: Um, that's because they're not teenagers yet.
13:06
SPEAKER_00: So you just went to the code.
13:07
SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna I'm I know it's that's when we talk about that ball dropping.
13:11
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's it.
13:12
SPEAKER_01: I'll talk to you in ten years and be like, remember when I went on your podcast and talked about how easy my kids are?
13:18
SPEAKER_00: And remember how I said we protect ourselves by not remembering the trauma?
13:21
SPEAKER_00: Every time my 17 or 20-year-old drives me crazy now, I bring up the birth trauma.
13:26
SPEAKER_00: You know, you almost killed me.
13:27
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
13:28
SPEAKER_00: So that's when you bring it up.
13:30
SPEAKER_00: Absolutely.
13:30
SPEAKER_00: You just get to use it for the rest of our lives.
13:33
SPEAKER_00: Okay, so we need to talk about this Taylor Swift obsession, right?
13:37
SPEAKER_00: And we'll have to discuss your eras that came with it, right?
13:40
SPEAKER_00: So there's teacher Emily, lawyer Emily, stay-at-home mom Emily, sourdough Emily, Pilates Emily, and now content creator Emily.
13:51
SPEAKER_00: Which error surprised you the most?
13:54
SPEAKER_00: This one.
13:55
SPEAKER_00: This one, content creator.
13:57
SPEAKER_00: By far.
13:57
SPEAKER_00: Why?
13:59
SPEAKER_01: This is not where I ever thought my life would go.
14:04
SPEAKER_01: Um you know, I finished college, I loved kids.
14:09
SPEAKER_01: I was like, it makes sense for me to be a teacher.
14:12
SPEAKER_01: And so I went to grad school, I got my dual master's early childhood special ed, and I did that for a bit, and then I got engaged, and I was like, you know, I've always wanted to go to law school.
14:23
SPEAKER_01: We're gonna start having kids.
14:25
SPEAKER_01: I feel like now's the time, let me do that.
14:26
SPEAKER_01: So I did that, I went into law, I was in, you know, I was doing litigation for four years and um hospital administration while I was at a firm and I which is a thing in and of itself.
14:44
SPEAKER_01: And then life just happened with the kids and my son went through a horribly terrifying experience and ended up hospitalized and he's okay now, thank God.
15:02
SPEAKER_01: And that just shook me to my core and like completely just altered my entire brain chemistry to the point where I was like, I don't want to be working 15-hour days, I want to spend every moment that I can with my kids while they're young, before they're in school, and um yeah, I I felt like I couldn't be a stay-at-home mom because life's expensive, and we you know, I tried that for a bit, and I ultimately decided I was pregnant with my third, and I said I gotta go back, I gotta practice.
15:39
SPEAKER_01: So I did that, and then life happened again.
15:43
SPEAKER_01: I had her and very much America like maternity leave.
15:53
SPEAKER_01: I it just it didn't feel right.
15:55
SPEAKER_01: She was seven weeks, I was having to go back, and I couldn't.
16:01
SPEAKER_01: Um, the firm that I was working for had asked me to commute about an hour and a half each direction, which as you know, is not billable unless I'm going to court.
16:10
SPEAKER_01: So I would have had to spend three to three and a half hours traveling, which means a 15-hour day of work then turns into an 18 and a half hour day of work.
16:19
SPEAKER_01: Um, and it just didn't feel feasible.
16:22
SPEAKER_01: So when I I said let me take a break until like Christmas, and then in the new year I'll start applying again.
16:28
SPEAKER_01: At that time, as I said, I was like depressed, and I started posting like videos of me cleaning my house, which people were like, I kinda like this, and I was like, Well, I kinda like it.
16:40
SPEAKER_01: So I went on Amazon, I bought a tripod, and I was like, I'm just gonna like that's a little embarrassing that I just like bought a tripod, but like we're just gonna do it, and so I kept posting, and people are like, I I really like your videos, and so the way that it like organically kind of snowballed into this, this is my most surprising era, like by far.
17:03
SPEAKER_01: That like how even am I sitting here with you?
17:07
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it is such an imposter syndrome type of like experience.
17:12
SPEAKER_01: I'm like, I will go out and someone will say, Oh my gosh, like I follow you, I love your page, and I'm like You talking to me?
17:20
SPEAKER_01: I'm like looking behind me, I'm like, what do you what do you mean?
17:23
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so it's it's been a journey, and obviously that comes with difficult parts of this job.
17:30
SPEAKER_01: Sure.
17:31
SPEAKER_01: But it's exciting and fun, and it allows me to be home and present as a mom, which is the most important thing in my life.
17:41
SPEAKER_00: That's first of all, I love that story.
17:43
SPEAKER_00: Second of all, I I get why people like to follow you.
17:47
SPEAKER_00: You have a very intriguing but relatable aura about you.
17:53
SPEAKER_00: Like we're sitting here, we're both moms, we're both attorneys, and I bet if we didn't have those things in common, we could find 15 other things that we have in common, and I'm 50.
18:03
SPEAKER_00: So I I've lived your life 18 years ago, except not the cleaning the house part.
18:08
SPEAKER_00: Really, really bad at that.
18:10
SPEAKER_01: I'm faking it, honestly.
18:12
SPEAKER_01: I actually use those videos as motivation to clean my house.
18:15
SPEAKER_00: Okay, good.
18:16
SPEAKER_00: I like to organize, but I don't like to clean.
18:18
SPEAKER_01: I get that.
18:18
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
18:19
SPEAKER_00: Okay, I have some more questions for you.
18:20
SPEAKER_00: Okay, but but I'm gonna put this down for a minute.
18:22
SPEAKER_00: Tell me about the sourdough bread.
18:24
SPEAKER_00: I love sourdough bread.
18:25
SPEAKER_00: Were you doing this as a hobby?
18:27
SPEAKER_00: Was this like a business?
18:28
SPEAKER_00: What's going on?
18:29
SPEAKER_00: And did you bring some because I'm hungry?
18:31
SPEAKER_01: I I didn't, and that was a mistake, and I I you'll have to forgive me for that.
18:36
SPEAKER_01: I got into sourdough like so randomly.
18:40
SPEAKER_01: I just one day I was like, I'm gonna try it because everybody's doing it, so why I can do this.
18:44
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like I I do hard things all the time.
18:47
SPEAKER_01: So I get this sourdough starter in the mail.
18:51
SPEAKER_01: I ordered it, and I couldn't figure it out.
18:54
SPEAKER_01: And I was like, it's bread.
18:57
SPEAKER_01: Like, I'm a lawyer.
19:00
SPEAKER_01: I I can figure this out, and I was so obsessed to the point, like my husband, I would go away for like a day or two.
19:07
SPEAKER_01: My husband would be home and I'm like, Did you feed the sourdough?
19:10
SPEAKER_01: Like, I was becoming obsessed.
19:12
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and so we keep trying recipes, and the loaves would come out like flat discs, and we were eating them.
19:18
SPEAKER_01: Like they still taste good.
19:19
SPEAKER_01: I don't care what anybody said.
19:21
SPEAKER_01: They're delicious.
19:22
SPEAKER_01: And you got to the point where they were good, so good that I was making them for like family and friends, and I was like, you know what?
19:29
SPEAKER_01: Like, I don't wanna I don't wanna practice law right now.
19:32
SPEAKER_01: I wanna just make bread.
19:34
SPEAKER_01: And this is around the time that I had um my son had a medical issue, and I was like, I'm gonna I'm gonna do this.
19:41
SPEAKER_01: So I started, it was baked by Emily.
19:44
SPEAKER_01: I started a like an Instagram and I was doing local orders.
19:50
SPEAKER_02: You were?
19:50
SPEAKER_01: But I had a moment, I have to be honest, I they were delicious.
19:54
SPEAKER_01: I had a moment where I delivered in a public park to someone.
20:00
SPEAKER_01: Like what the woman.
20:02
SPEAKER_01: But like I was like so excited.
20:03
SPEAKER_01: I packaged, I had these stickers made up, like anyway.
20:08
SPEAKER_01: So she texts me and she's like, Hey Emily, I I just can't with this story.
20:14
SPEAKER_01: She texts me like 25 to 30 minutes later, she goes, Hey, the bread was delicious, but I do want to say the bottom was burnt, and so if you're selling bread, I feel like that should be fine-tuned.
20:28
SPEAKER_01: And I had this moment and I was like, girl, it's bread, just eat it and enjoy.
20:35
SPEAKER_01: But like, I was like, I maybe we're not gonna sell the bread, but we're still gonna bake the bread and enjoy it, and that's what we do.
20:43
SPEAKER_00: Well, I bought a starter kit like six months ago.
20:47
SPEAKER_00: It's still in my pantry, which is a messy child and unorganized, just putting it out there.
20:52
SPEAKER_01: That's okay.
20:53
SPEAKER_01: It's another child.
20:54
SPEAKER_01: You have to like feed it.
20:55
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, no, I'm good.
20:56
SPEAKER_00: No, it's a it's a thing.
20:57
SPEAKER_00: I'm good.
20:58
SPEAKER_00: Alright.
20:59
SPEAKER_00: Ready?
20:59
SPEAKER_00: We'll move on, and you owe me sourdough bread.
21:02
SPEAKER_00: Burnt or not.
21:02
SPEAKER_00: I don't care.
21:03
SPEAKER_00: It's all the same going.
21:04
SPEAKER_00: That's fair.
21:05
SPEAKER_00: That's fair.
21:06
SPEAKER_00: Okay.
21:06
SPEAKER_00: Um was there a particular video that you made that you you opened your Instagram, you opened your TikTok, and you were like, oh my god, like people actually care what I have to say.
21:19
SPEAKER_00: Was there a moment when you realized that you were kind of doing it?
21:23
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
21:24
SPEAKER_01: So I had posted after I got certified, I s I had started gaining traction around the time that I went through my certification.
21:33
SPEAKER_01: Um, and then I started teaching immediately.
21:36
SPEAKER_01: And teaching Pilates, by the way, not children.
21:41
SPEAKER_01: So I started I posted a video of me teaching, and it was me with like a Drake song in the background, and the cli same.
21:51
SPEAKER_01: The client was shaking.
21:53
SPEAKER_01: Like her legs were shaking because the exercise was difficult.
21:56
SPEAKER_01: She was in muscle failure.
21:58
SPEAKER_01: And the I you plan your videos and like obsess over them and you're meticulous.
22:08
SPEAKER_01: I posted that one on a whim.
22:10
SPEAKER_01: I took a clip, I just randomly was like teaching.
22:13
SPEAKER_01: I was like, I'm gonna prop the phone up.
22:15
SPEAKER_01: I taught.
22:16
SPEAKER_01: I thought it was a funny clip because she was shaking, and I I was like engaged with her as I am in my classes, and it posted it without thought.
22:26
SPEAKER_01: I think I actually closed my phone and just like went on with my day.
22:31
SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
22:32
SPEAKER_01: And like around like 7 p.m.
22:34
SPEAKER_01: it had gotten like over like 200,000 views, and I was like, okay, that's pretty viral.
22:40
SPEAKER_01: Like that's that's going.
22:41
SPEAKER_01: And the comments were coming in, and of course, I was like looking into them, and they were awful.
22:47
SPEAKER_01: Awful.
22:48
SPEAKER_01: Like, and they were all about me.
22:51
SPEAKER_01: And not about me and my ability to teach, it was my body.
22:57
SPEAKER_01: And that was like the video that kind of catapulted a conversation about how we talk about people, and you know, some of the comments were defending me saying like not only me, but just defending people that are overweight and saying, like, how are you talking like publicly about someone like that?
23:20
SPEAKER_01: Like, it's awful.
23:22
SPEAKER_01: And um, I think as that video grew, I think now it has like over 60 million views.
23:30
SPEAKER_01: And the the main thing was my response.
23:36
SPEAKER_01: I actually had someone, a really well-known public figure, stitch my video, and she said, like, if I walk into Pilates and that's my instructor, I'm walking out.
23:50
SPEAKER_01: And she talked about like just literally based on my appearance, and I did a response video, and that response to her was the moment that I was like, We're doing this.
24:03
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's important.
24:04
SPEAKER_01: I could have completely shut down and let my mental health take over, or I could have done what I did, which is we're gonna push through because this is so important, yeah.
24:22
SPEAKER_01: And like should never be a thing where we uh judge someone for how they look.
24:30
SPEAKER_01: Um, you could judge me on my class.
24:32
SPEAKER_01: I always tell my members and clients, if you didn't like the class, if something didn't feel right, tell me.
24:39
SPEAKER_01: Like that's something that is important to me, but it should never be about your body, and it's not, right?
24:47
SPEAKER_01: Like it's about your energy, and that's in life.
24:51
SPEAKER_01: Like, there's so much mistreatment and like biases against people that are overweight, and I have set out to change that.
25:05
SPEAKER_01: Like that that is my goal to make everyone feel included and just like allowed to take up space because that's your body is your body, your energy is what attracts.
25:21
SPEAKER_00: I think there's this mi this huge misconception that if you're thin, you have a good life.
25:28
SPEAKER_00: You have everything together, you're a better mom, you're a better professional, you're a better Pilates teacher.
25:36
SPEAKER_00: But if you're heavy or not societally perfect perfect and thin, then you don't know what you're doing, or you're a mess.
25:43
SPEAKER_00: Or why would I take advice or instruction from you if my goal is to get thin and you are not?
25:51
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's the biggest comment that I receive on my platform is that's like taking financial advice from a homeless person.
25:59
SPEAKER_01: And what I what I want to say to that is it is conceivable that people that are homeless were at one point financially successful.
26:11
SPEAKER_01: Life happens, you have no idea people's circumstances.
26:16
SPEAKER_01: Like, there are billionaires out there who have gone bankrupt at some point or another.
26:20
SPEAKER_01: Like, it doesn't tell the full pi picture, is my point.
26:24
SPEAKER_01: And like someone that is thin, if you walk into a Plies class and someone is super thin, and that is what you're using to judge whether the class is going to be good or not, being thin does not mean necessarily that you're healthy.
26:38
SPEAKER_01: It could mean that, but it also could not.
26:42
SPEAKER_01: Like, you don't know people's habits, what they go through, how they got thin, how they stay thin, and we are in what people have coined as like skinny culture.
26:56
SPEAKER_01: That is trending right now to be really skinny and obviously with access to medications and peptides and GLPs, like which I'm on one and I speak very openly about that.
27:09
SPEAKER_01: Um, it's harmful when we have those assumptions about health.
27:17
SPEAKER_01: Like, just because someone's heavy doesn't mean they're inherently unhealthy.
27:21
SPEAKER_01: They could be.
27:22
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
27:22
SPEAKER_01: Certainly.
27:23
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
27:24
SPEAKER_00: And but they're not exclusive.
27:26
SPEAKER_00: Correct.
27:27
SPEAKER_00: So when this this celebrity or this person with a large following made a personal attack on your physical appearance on her platform, how did that make you feel?
27:40
SPEAKER_00: Did you feel attacked or did you feel like now I'm empowered because I'm gonna put it out there?
27:45
SPEAKER_01: I was angry for a different reason than people think.
27:49
SPEAKER_01: I was not angry at her because I in a way felt sorry for her.
27:57
SPEAKER_01: That like what led you in your life to have that thought about someone.
28:05
SPEAKER_01: I was angry that that's even a conversation or the way that people view me and other people that are bigger.
28:14
SPEAKER_01: Um that anger turned into productivity and like determination to change that.
28:23
SPEAKER_01: And if I can inspire even just one person to set foot in a fitness space, I this is a great example.
28:34
SPEAKER_01: I go to a gym um for strength training, and I everyone there is so inherently good looking, like I mean, so good looking.
28:50
SPEAKER_01: And I could have been really intimidated, like, to walk into that space, and I can rock a Pilates class.
28:58
SPEAKER_01: Like I I'm side planking, I I I'm strong.
29:01
SPEAKER_01: The gym is a different beast for me, and I could have just like not done it because I'm not confident in that.
29:11
SPEAKER_01: I show up in a sports bra and bike shorts, which is what you would wear to hot Pilates.
29:19
SPEAKER_01: I did it to the gym, I show up, and I just move my body, and what I noticed and what I have noticed, no one's looking.
29:31
SPEAKER_01: And further, I think that people respect the hustle like in all capacities.
29:41
SPEAKER_01: Like, I am proud of the people that are so fit that continue to show up and move their bodies.
29:46
SPEAKER_01: I am sure they are proud of me that I'm there in that space moving, and I think that's like the misconception.
29:53
SPEAKER_01: Like, people are so intimidated to go into these spaces.
29:58
SPEAKER_01: You don't have to be the fastest in the room, you don't have to be the strongest in the room, but you should be in the room.
30:07
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I that I I yeah, I mean, I'm not a gym person.
30:12
SPEAKER_00: I wanna be.
30:13
SPEAKER_00: I I I've probably still paying a membership or two out there.
30:16
SPEAKER_00: Same, same.
30:18
SPEAKER_00: I'm sure I am.
30:19
SPEAKER_00: But I think for me, and I've lived life as a a thin person, as a heavy person, and I was intimidated during both stages.
30:29
SPEAKER_00: I always feel like for whatever reason, the people at the gym who are there to better themselves, who are there to get stronger and get fitter, somehow care if you see a little jiggle in my, you know, in my leggings, or I mean stuff that shouldn't matter.
30:46
SPEAKER_00: And I think I want to feel differently about it.
30:49
SPEAKER_00: And I and I talk to somebody like you, and I'm like, I need to get my ass back into a gym because now I'm thin, so now I've I've lost the weight.
30:56
SPEAKER_00: So society treats me totally different now, right?
31:00
SPEAKER_01: But I'm not fit, not at all.
31:02
SPEAKER_01: I think also to the things that we pick apart, like I have had moments where I've been at the gym or in Pilates where I've looked in the mirror and I've been like, oh my god, like are people looking at that?
31:15
SPEAKER_01: And especially now, I'm actually this is interesting, I'm down 60 pounds.
31:20
SPEAKER_00: Oh, that's amazing.
31:21
SPEAKER_01: And thank you.
31:22
SPEAKER_01: I am more self-conscious now than I was at my highest weight, and it's because of like loose skin, or like I I don't look as like um I don't even know the word, like as formed, I guess I would say.
31:40
SPEAKER_01: And so I had this pivotal moment in Gab Studio at here.
31:45
SPEAKER_01: Um I was really freshly postpartum, like six weeks.
31:50
SPEAKER_01: I had just gotten cleared and I was in there, and it was one of my first like heated classes back from pregnancy, and I wore a big t-shirt, black leggings, I was covered.
32:06
SPEAKER_00: The classic, I'm hiding my body.
32:08
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
32:08
SPEAKER_00: I was like, um Yeah, yeah.
32:11
SPEAKER_01: It was so hot in that room, it reached like 107 or something, and I was like, I'm fucking hot.
32:23
SPEAKER_01: Can I say that?
32:24
SPEAKER_01: Like I was like, I'm fucking hot.
32:27
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
32:27
SPEAKER_01: And so I had a sports bra on underneath.
32:30
SPEAKER_01: You took that off in it, yeah.
32:32
SPEAKER_01: I did.
32:33
SPEAKER_01: I ripped my shirt off.
32:34
SPEAKER_01: I hid myself.
32:36
SPEAKER_01: I was like a little embarrassed, so I took it off.
32:38
SPEAKER_01: And I had this moment.
32:40
SPEAKER_01: I looked around the room, and this room was packed out.
32:43
SPEAKER_01: There were like 33 people in the class, and I looked around after I took my shirt off.
32:51
SPEAKER_01: And like the most incredible moment that like changed the trajectory of how I look at myself, not one person looked.
33:04
SPEAKER_00: Because I don't care, and like I was like what you were wearing.
33:07
SPEAKER_01: Correct.
33:07
SPEAKER_01: Like I looked in the mirror and I was like, the mirror was in front of me, and I was like, oh my god, this is embarrassing.
33:14
SPEAKER_01: Like, can't believe I look like this.
33:16
SPEAKER_01: And then I had this moment and I was like, you know what?
33:19
SPEAKER_01: I birthed three children.
33:21
SPEAKER_01: That's right.
33:22
SPEAKER_01: And yeah, was I heavy before I got pregnant?
33:24
SPEAKER_01: Yes.
33:25
SPEAKER_01: And do people on my page love to point that out?
33:29
SPEAKER_01: Also, yes.
33:30
SPEAKER_01: But like, I'm proud of myself, I'm proud of my body, I'm proud of the decisions that I make daily, and I know what I'm doing.
33:40
SPEAKER_01: Like, I know what I've done to be down 60 pounds.
33:43
SPEAKER_01: That is not easy, and I have never felt better, so I may not look like society tells us that we should look when we're healthy, but I know my day, I know what I do, I know that I am healthy.
33:58
SPEAKER_01: And you're strong.
33:59
SPEAKER_01: Strong.
33:59
SPEAKER_00: And you're fit.
34:01
SPEAKER_00: Fit.
34:02
SPEAKER_00: So you're on a weight loss journey.
34:04
SPEAKER_00: I am, but whether you get to the ultimate goal or not doesn't diminish the fact that you are a beautiful, strong instructor who is inspiring many, many people.
34:16
SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
34:16
SPEAKER_00: I love what you're saying about body image and the thing is the thing that always got me, and I grew up I'm sure Gab has filled you in on our our very wonderful but nutty family, and weight was the most important thing in the world.
34:33
SPEAKER_00: Being smart, being pretty, being funny, being loved, uh great.
34:37
SPEAKER_00: If you're heavy, you have problems.
34:40
SPEAKER_00: Right.
34:40
SPEAKER_00: And I think we are living in skinny culture.
34:44
SPEAKER_00: And you know, I we were traveling uh last month, and um for the first time in 25 years, I put on a two-piece bathing suit.
34:54
SPEAKER_01: Hell yeah.
34:54
SPEAKER_00: I did, I did I did, and I let my daughter take a picture of me.
34:58
SPEAKER_00: I'm not gonna post it.
35:00
SPEAKER_00: But I put it on, I wore it, and I felt good.
35:02
SPEAKER_00: I'm like, yes, there's loose skin.
35:04
SPEAKER_00: And yes, it's not a flat belly, but I'm 50 years old, I look fucking good.
35:09
SPEAKER_00: And like, I I I don't have to hide.
35:12
SPEAKER_00: I read somewhere, who has a beach body?
35:14
SPEAKER_00: We all have beach bodies.
35:15
SPEAKER_00: You go to a beach, you put on a bathing suit, and then you have a beach body.
35:19
SPEAKER_00: Absolutely.
35:20
SPEAKER_00: I mean, yes, do I look at these 25-year-old women who have like perfectly concave stomachs?
35:26
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but I was never one of those women anyway.
35:29
SPEAKER_00: So I'll rock being 50 doing it this way.
35:32
SPEAKER_01: And I think it's even about like looking good, like we could pick apart things about our bodies.
35:37
SPEAKER_01: I would never do that to someone, like I would never have that thought of someone on the street, like, oh, their arm looks big in that tank top.
35:44
SPEAKER_01: I was getting dressed for today, and I was like, oh, I've never been on like a podcast.
35:50
SPEAKER_01: What do what does one even wear on a podcast?
35:53
SPEAKER_01: And I picked out a few shirts and I was like, eh, well, what if my arm looks big and maybe I'm not gonna be comfortable in a tank top?
36:01
SPEAKER_01: And I was like, I would judge that.
36:04
SPEAKER_01: No one else is going to judge that.
36:06
SPEAKER_01: And guess what?
36:07
SPEAKER_01: Like, our standard of beauty is not society's standard of beauty is different than our standard of beauty.
36:17
SPEAKER_01: Like, I've never looked at someone and said, oh, they're that's an ugly per person.
36:23
SPEAKER_00: Like I've not once.
36:26
SPEAKER_00: Well, that's because you're not ugly inside.
36:28
SPEAKER_00: I feel like ugly people inside externalize and everybody they look at, you know, they project their own insecurities.
36:35
SPEAKER_00: So somebody who's struggled with their weight sometimes is the worst critic of someone who struggles with our weight, right?
36:43
SPEAKER_00: Because they're looking at, oh wow, she shouldn't be wearing that, or you know, if that's not a size two.
36:49
SPEAKER_00: And and meanwhile, that person went through their own struggles.
36:52
SPEAKER_00: Totally.
36:52
SPEAKER_00: But instead of being like, oh, I recognize the challenge, I recognize the success, and successes don't have to be, you know, 25 pounds on the scale.
37:02
SPEAKER_00: You know, jeans fit today that didn't fit last month.
37:05
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
37:05
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, non-scale victories.
37:07
SPEAKER_00: That's awesome.
37:08
SPEAKER_01: It's also just how you feel.
37:10
SPEAKER_01: Like even like you saying, I wore a two-piece bathing suit and I felt good, I may not have looked good.
37:17
SPEAKER_01: It's not about looking good, it's about feeling good.
37:20
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
37:21
SPEAKER_01: And that's like my goal with anything that I do.
37:26
SPEAKER_01: I want to be around for such a long time with my kids.
37:30
SPEAKER_01: I want to be running, doing turkey trots with my grandkids.
37:34
SPEAKER_01: I love that.
37:35
SPEAKER_01: Um, that's what it's about, right?
37:37
SPEAKER_01: Like I uh the weight on the scale is is a piece of the puzzle.
37:43
SPEAKER_01: It's not the whole picture.
37:45
SPEAKER_00: My grandmother used to say, nothing feels as good.
37:48
SPEAKER_00: Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.
37:51
SPEAKER_00: And I fucking disagree with that.
37:53
SPEAKER_00: Chocolate cake tastes way better than being skinny.
37:57
SPEAKER_00: Delicious.
37:57
SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
37:58
SPEAKER_00: So whatever.
37:59
SPEAKER_00: Love you, Grandma, rest in peace.
38:00
SPEAKER_00: But no, you were wrong.
38:02
SPEAKER_00: All right, you ready?
38:03
SPEAKER_00: We're gonna move on a little bit.
38:04
SPEAKER_00: I wanna I wanna bring up do you like pink?
38:07
SPEAKER_00: Love this.
38:07
SPEAKER_00: Okay, I love pink too.
38:09
SPEAKER_00: And she 2017, 2018, she did a speech at the VMA's um talking about how Willow felt ugly and how people were telling her at school she's the ugliest kid around.
38:23
SPEAKER_00: And Pink said to her, and I'm I'm summarizing, and Pink said to her, People have been criticizing my look for years.
38:32
SPEAKER_00: Have you ever seen me change?
38:33
SPEAKER_00: Have you ever seen me conform to what other people, you know, think is beautiful?
38:38
SPEAKER_00: And she said, No.
38:40
SPEAKER_00: And Pink keeps her hair short, and Pink has her I don't know if it's an androgynous look, whatever it is.
38:46
SPEAKER_00: Pink's gorgeous, and she's sexy and talented, and her daughter, ironically, has grown up very feminine and very, you know, cute and pretty, different than her mom, but she rocks her own style.
38:59
SPEAKER_00: And I love that.
39:00
SPEAKER_00: I love that.
39:01
SPEAKER_00: Um, how do you pass on to your kids, even though they're little, that like you don't have to conform, you don't have to change to what society says you should look like or you should be.
39:13
SPEAKER_01: I think the best way that I have gone about doing that, even from a young age, is to be myself and be it.
39:20
SPEAKER_01: Because your kids look up to you, no one else.
39:24
SPEAKER_01: That is human nature to want to be like your parents and like from a young age, and obviously unless circumstances are different and your parents give you a reason to not want to be like them, but it's I think it starts with me and how I talk about myself.
39:41
SPEAKER_01: You will never ever see me talking badly about my appearance in front of my kids.
39:48
SPEAKER_01: I may do it in here, and I may look in the mirror and wish that so many things were different about my physical appearance.
40:00
SPEAKER_01: I will never say that in front of my children.
40:03
SPEAKER_01: Um my daughter has these beautiful curls, like the most stunning, perfect ringlets.
40:12
SPEAKER_01: And I used to have curly hair, and I remember like always wanting to straighten them because everyone around me had straight hair, and I was like, I this is horrible.
40:22
SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
40:23
SPEAKER_01: Who would have given me curly hair?
40:25
SPEAKER_01: And I make so sure to tell my daughter, like, I think your curls are beautiful.
40:32
SPEAKER_01: Do you think your curls are beautiful?
40:34
SPEAKER_01: And I think it's important to teach our kids, like, if another child or person says something that they don't like about them, yeah, their thought, their response should be, well, I do.
40:48
SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's that's great advice because those curls, they're beautiful, and other kids are looking at those curls wishing that they had them.
40:57
SPEAKER_01: Grass I always say, everyone always says the grass is always greener on the other side, isn't that the saying?
41:03
SPEAKER_01: I always say the grass is green where you water it.
41:06
SPEAKER_01: Oh.
41:07
SPEAKER_01: Which is like you pour into those parts that are important.
41:12
SPEAKER_00: Alright, alright.
41:13
SPEAKER_00: I love that.
41:14
SPEAKER_00: Alright, we're gonna move on to a little laugh-love law.
41:17
SPEAKER_00: Love it.
41:17
SPEAKER_00: Alright, this is our game.
41:18
SPEAKER_00: You're gonna grab those three paddles.
41:20
SPEAKER_00: Okay.
41:21
SPEAKER_00: I'll help you out.
41:22
SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
41:22
SPEAKER_00: Closer to me anyway.
41:24
SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
41:24
SPEAKER_00: Okay, I'm gonna give you these.
41:26
SPEAKER_00: Okay, alright.
41:27
SPEAKER_00: And I'm gonna give you some topics and you're going to hold up the paddle that you think uh matches the topic, right?
41:36
SPEAKER_00: If you love it, you're gonna hold up the love paddle.
41:39
SPEAKER_00: If you chuckle or think it's something funny, hold up the laugh paddle.
41:45
SPEAKER_00: And if you hate it, well, hold up the law paddle.
41:48
SPEAKER_00: Easy.
41:48
