• 1:15
  Speaker 1: so I'm gonna need Zach to help me. So bear
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: with us, but we are trying to both speak at
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: the same volume and hope that it all works out.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: So for today's episode, we're going to be talking about
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: a spooky season bucket list. I feel like these next
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: two weeks, with it being November first, next Saturday, we
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: want to try and get in as much fall in
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: like pumpkin theme, kind of just like spooky season activities
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: to do maybe for like a girls' night, or to
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: do with your boyfriend or your husband, just kind of
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: like fun things you can do maybe at home, or
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: things you could do in your city. And also talk
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: about some kind of like health and wellness horror stories
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: that we both kind of experienced in our past life. Yeah,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: and almost like trying to educate you guys to not
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: do this that we did. If you're someone that might
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: be starting out their health and wellness journey or maybe
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: you have similar experiences that we've had, it's kind of
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: nice just to kind of like talk it out and
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: be able to relate one hundred percent, just kind of
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: like relate to our health and wellness horror stories. So
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: we're gonna get into this episode and start talking about
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: spooky season bucket list.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: So The first thing me and Kayley thought of for
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: our spooky season bucket lists would be to either paint
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: or carve pumpkins. I feel like this is just like
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: a go to when it comes to Halloween, Like you
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: gotta either paint or carve pumpkins. I feel like carving
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: pumpkins is like so traditional, but it can also be
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: really messy and a lot so if you don't like
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: that whole mess and like, I feel like it's also
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: a long process just to like get all the seeds
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: out and all that.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: So do you remember we actually did this like three
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: years ago in this house and we had garbage bags.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: Yes, I'm pretty sure it took us like an hour
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: and a half.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Just to get like all the seas out. Yeah, it's
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: a bit messy and long. So if that's not for you,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: I feel like painting pumpkins is so much easier, and
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: I feel like you can also do so much more
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: with it because you know, you can use different colors
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: and also too, if you're not the best card. I
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: was just about to say, I feel like any time
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I carve a pumpkin, I always mess up, Like I
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: just like I'll always like trace exactly what I want
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: to do. I'm like, Okay, this looks perfect, and then
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I just somehow mess something up.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: It's almost like looking at the Pinterest image and then
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: what you created and like it's not the same.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Never aligns.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it never is.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: And I feel like with painting, like it's just so
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: much easier to cover up a mistake. Like I've painted
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: pumpkins in the past. I've done like a Frank and
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Steying pumpkin. I've done a zombie pumpkin, a vampire pumpkin,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: and they come out like so cute, like just so cute.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: I remember one year I had these pumpkins that I
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: painted and I was so proud of myself because they
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: looked so good, and like I refuse to throw them
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: out for months, and my parents were like, Maddie, like
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: we need to throw these out, like it's been so long,
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: like you need to throw them out. I was like, oh,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: so sad. So yeah. But I will say with carving pumpkins,
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: it's kind of nice when it's like you know, you
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: have the carving and then you can put like a
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: little candle in it. Like I feel like you can't
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: really do that with painting because it's like you can
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: see inside.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: I will say though, that I think the painted pumpkins
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: are more aesthetic. I do find it gives more of
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: like a cute see look. Whereas as I said, if
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: you were not good at carving pumpkins, which I am not, like,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I feel like I've never actually had a I've never
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: been pumpkin ever. So I feel like if you know
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: for a fact that it's just not going to be
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: cute at all, I think you have a better shot
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: at having a cute pumpkin if you paint. Also, to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: add on to that, I feel like if you go
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: to a pumpkin patch to pick up the pumpkins, it's
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: ten times more enjoyable too, because you can kind of
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: make a whole afternoon out of it. So if you
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: have no plans this weekend on Saturday, you could go
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: to a pumpkin patch pick out you know, two pumpkins
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: with your best friend or your boyfriend slash husband, go home,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: maybe make a full inspired dinner, and then start carving
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: your pumpkins or painting your pumpkins with a spooky movie on.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I think that to me is the most perfect spooky
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: like I think I'm gonna do that this weekend, like,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: talk me about it. I'm just like, wait, I need
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: to do that. That sounds so fun. And then the
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: next one is a baking night. So I feel like
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the Halloween theme cookies are usually out around this time
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: of the year, So if you go to the grocery store,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: usually Pillsbury has a themed pumpkin cookies that you can
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: pick out. I think they have like pumpkins ghosts, maybe
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: like haunted houses, which yeah they have, oh, like the
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: scary cats or something like that. They always have really
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: interesting ones. But they also usually have like pumpkin spice cookies. Oh,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: those are so good. Remember we bought those?
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Oh yes, yeah, remember didn't we combine them? Yes?
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Oh wait, I forgot about that TikTok trend where they
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: took the pumpkin spice cookies and then the Halloween theme
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: with like the pumpkin o. Wha wait, God, I forgot
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: about that. That's something that's really good. I really like
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: that too. So yeah, you could pick out a few
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: cute cookies to pick out at the grocery store, or
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: you could do homemade cookies. I've seen people do honestly
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: really crazy things that I've seen on Pinterest, like I've
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: seen people take like marshmallows dipped it in chocolate to
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: like make like little ghosts.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Oh cute, yeah, like chocolate ghosts.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: I've seen people do like kind of like different like
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: spooky cocktails that you could make on dress, like witches potion,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: like a green drink.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Remember we made that one year?
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: But was that green drink?
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Was it green apple juice? No?
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: No? Did we had color dot or like food?
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: No, we didn't.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: It was literally pure green. I just don't don't remember
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: what the juice was. But it literally looked like witches potion.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Wasn't it. We made it alcoholic and we added like
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: green grenadine.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: I Oh that's what it was.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: You're right, you're right, and we just added like I
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: think it was like a lemon lime poppy.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Or yeah, true, I think you're right. So there's that
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: idea too. If you go on Pinterest and just kind
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: of search like Halloween theme cocktails or Halloween theme desserts
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: or whatever, there's so many fun creative ideas that you
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: could do for like a baking night, And you could
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: also do like a baking night with your friends, which
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I think you did recently.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so me and my friends we did more of
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: like a fall baking night, because this was like more
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: early October, I think late September, and so we all,
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: there was six of us, we got into like little teams,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: and then we all came with our own recipe. So
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: me and my friend we did like s'more cookies I think,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: and then there was also apple cinnamon blondies and cinnamon rolls,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: and so we kind of made it a competition, and
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: like we had my friend's mom try it, her brother
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: and like picking their favorite. We all each got one
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: point from like an outside person. So yeah, it was
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: a really fun little activity and to like have a
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: little dessert after was like so nice.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that idea.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: So if you have a few friends and you want
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: to do a little bake off and make it with
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: like a bit of a spooky theme. I also, oh
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: my godness, I can't believe forgot about this the candy
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: salad trend on TikTok.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: WHOA, Like I needed to do a spooky night one.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Like there's so many cute like little pumpkin gummies that
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: you could get and just kind of like throw it
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: all into a bowl with like different types of Halloween candy.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Go to bulkburn, pick out your favorite different types of treats,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: throw it all in a bowl.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: I know Zach loves when I make a candy saladies
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: like this is Heaven.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: I also loved what we did last year too, where
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: we made ghost pizzas.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, that was so oh wait, I love that.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: I need to do that again too.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: And then you like do the sauce and you can
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: do like the eyes with like pepperoni, and do like
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: the cheese.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: And make a mouth. Yeah, we should do that. That
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: was fun.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: So speaking about baking and candy salads and pumpkin patches
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: and all that, there's also the idea of just doing
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: a Halloween movie night marathon. So Zach and I actually
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: just recently watched Scream. We watched allso watch Did you
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: did you watch all six?
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: I don't watched did you watch all six?
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: I watch all them? Oh wow, the last two we've
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: never seen.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Okay, I need to do that because I've only seen
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: up to five. So I've also haven't seen the last two.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: But I only watched. I only just started. I think
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: I watched the first two, so yeah, I haven't finished.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: The lots are like my favorite movies.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: The last two are on Amazon Prime.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Okay, and you need to.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Watch them because it's a totally different storyline okay, which
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: I kind of like because it makes it scarier. Oh
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: it was really gory. Yeah I didn't really like that. Okay,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: like the other one, the beginning screams are gory, but
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: this was like like a little too much stabbing, Like it.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: Was like, oh, I don't love an over.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: I feel like the reason I love like the screen movies,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: especially like the like like the first second third, is
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: because I feel like it's like not super scary, not
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: super intense, like you know, like it's just I don't know,
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: those movies don't scare me too much as if I
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: were to watch like for example, I could never watch
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: like a like a possessed.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Or like a conjuring. I was just no, I can't
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: do that. The conjuring is the scary. No, actually that's
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: not the scariest we've ever seen. The scariest movie I've
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: ever seen is the Chucky one. No Sinisters, Do.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: You remember that?
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah? No?
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: No't even want to talk about it.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Is it's a freaking trailer creeps me out like like
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Little Girl. Yes, No, the one where it's like where
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: they get to the house, the new house, and then
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: they finally find the projector and then they see videos. Yeah,
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: that's the scariest when I I can never rewatch.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: That, will never like that scar always my mind, well
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: not always in my mind, but like I just like
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: when I think of horror movies, that's the exact scene
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: like that, I'll speak of them in the attic.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Oh no, it's so scary, like like conjuring is scary,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: And I probably wouldn't watch that again either. I used
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: to be obsessed with horror movies and now I'm just like, no.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: I refuse, Like I'll watch the Scream movie or like
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: more of Like I feel like there's a difference between
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Halloween movie and horror movie. Yeah, I'll watch a Halloween movie.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I will not watch, yeah, a horror movie. Like there's
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: also Nightmare on Elm Street. That kind of freaked me, honest. Yeah,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: but like doa.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: BWL you know what, you know what it is.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: You have to find a horror movie with a storyline,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: so it's not like constant like I mean, I guess
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: they all have a storyline, but like that's not as
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: creepy like kind of like the screams. It's kind of
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: like them in high school. You kind of see like
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: a fun from the side, and then you have to
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: try and figure out who the killer is. That's like
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: within their friend group, whereas like The Conjuring, it's like
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: creepy house, creepy dolls, possess be Yeah, it's just like
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: not really anything exciting at it, Like it's all creepy.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: And also like not super relatable. I find yeah, like anyways,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: but I also think too, it's also fun to watch
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: movies that aren't super scary. Yes, Halloween Town or like
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: hocus Pocus, like those are just classic, or like The
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: Adams Family, Yeah, or The Nightmare Before Christmas. Yeah, it's
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: a cute one. Beetlejuice, Yeah, the one with the bride,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: the Corpse Bride.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: I've never heard of that one.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's it's a cute one.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: There's also Casper. I feel like that's a really really
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: cute one.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: Did you say Beetlejuice.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: I did say Beetlejuice.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Caroline is really Caroline.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Oh, Coraline creepy.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: She's I've actually never seen.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Oh that is it's like supposed to be not creepy,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: but I feel like a lot of people are ghostbusters.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Oh that's a good yeah.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Oh wait, you know what else, I kind of relate
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: the creep not creepy Halloween too.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know why, Scooby Doo. Oh yeah, I kind
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: of see it as Halloween a little bit.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Also, we're we just searched like these movies, movies in
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: case you're wondering.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and then oh, the Haunted Mansion. I loved that.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Haunted Mansion was my favorite.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so much.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: I watched that movie goose Bumps. Oh, Hotel Transylvania is cute,
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: but yeah, the Haunted Mansion was like my favorite favorite movie.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know why. I was just so obsessed with it.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: And I always think about it randomly too, And I
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: definitely need to watch it before Halloween. I feel like
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: there's so much I need to do. It's like stressing
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: me out.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Another thing that we've always grown up doing is decorating
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: our house either the day before Halloween or on Halloween,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: especially before the kids come trick or treating. So my
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: parents always used to do like a haunted house in
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: the garage, and like, my parents have some creepy stuff,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: and I honestly think it's because we force slept to
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: buy it. Like you know, those creepy statues that you
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: see a Canadian tire that people have been posting about
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: on social media, we have We have no we still
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: have them.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: We literally have a bunch of them.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: You will not believe. Like we were that house. Yeah,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: we we were that house on the street that went
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: full out that everybody wanted to go trick or treating to.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Everybody talked about. We did it for a few years
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: and then we stopped doing it, and it was kind
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: of sad because then people would come and be like,
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: why didn't you do the haunted house this year? Like
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: we literally like we turned our entire garage into like
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: this haunted house that people would walk through. We had
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: a strobe light, we had a fog machine, like so
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: creepy music.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like so creepy that we had Zach and my
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: dad dress up as like Michael Myer's yeah, chain fake
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: chainsaw noises.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Zach had like an actual fake chain saw in his
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: hand and would hide under his truck.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: And like it was actually And then like the statues
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: that we had, they obviously like talk and we had
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: like creepy dog and then me and Madison sometimes would
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: like wear blood on us and like, yeah.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: Dress up is creepy.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: People Like we would just like walk around like dressed
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: in like all black with a mask on and just
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: just like go up to random people.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Like remember, we would do the black socks over our
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: face and people were like what the heck is that?
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: And we had like black tarps in the garage, so
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: it literally looked like just that, like a black black
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: And then there's my mom all dressed up with the
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: candies like come on, kids, and some of the kids
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: are like no, I'm okay, and then my mom would
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: be like you guys.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Are too scary, Like the kids aren't even coming in.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, it was so fun. We need to bring
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: that back. Yeah, it's just so much effort. Like we
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: typically we wouldn't decorate our house at all prior to Halloween,
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: and then Halloween Day it's like we're all up.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: It's a mission.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: We're prepping, Like like we would.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Be done high school at what three thirty, and like
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: we would spend my dad would leave work early.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: We would spend like four hours doing the garage. Like guys,
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: this was a project.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like so no one would really know in advance,
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: like what it was going to look like. It was
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: just a whole thing, but it was so fun.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: I think we might need to bring that back when
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: I start having kids, because yeah, mom and dad would.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: Love to have that for their future grandchildren.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: You just better hope your kid doesn't get scared or.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: I'm traumatizing it. Yeah the kid bore kid anyways.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: But that's what we used to do growing up, and
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: it's something that we loved doing. Another thing that we
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: love to do usually during around this time of the
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: year two is finding like some.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: Typ of like horror tour.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: So we have something called Saunders Farm where there's like
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: a haunted hay ride, there's a haunted house, a haunted
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: corn maze. That's actually one thing that I always avoid
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: a I never do the corn maze that's the ice farm,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: because it's people inside the corn maze like following you,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: like chasing you. So you're running through a corn maze, Well,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: these creepy people are chasing you like that. The haunted
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: house alone, I'm already kind of creeped out by and I.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: Just mind my the one I always thought was really creepy.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: There's this one, I guess ride even though it's not
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: really a ride. You're just like walking through a four
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: and somebody follows you. Oh yeah, like somebody gets behind
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: you and starts following you with like chainsaw. Yeah, you're
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: just like running.
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: Were booking it.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: We're booking it. So that one I always hated, but
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I never I don't think I've ever done the corn Maze.
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: I need to do that, I've never know. I'm not
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: doing it. I'm avoid I'm.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: Going next week.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah I am too. When Oh, let's make plans. I
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: think that's all. Honestly.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: The rest that we had on our list was more
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: so just kind of like throwing a Halloween party or
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: going to a Halloween party dressing up. Zach and I
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: dressed up last year. I don't know if we're going
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: to dress up this year because we don't really have
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: I know, we don't really have a Halloween party this year,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: so unfortunately, I know, I honestly kind of just want
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: to buy a costume just to dress up.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: I don't know, I know some people.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Do that, but.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's kind of like the determining factor right now.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Our costume last year was so cute. It was so cute,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: it was so good. Yeah, that was actually a really
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: good costume. So I do have that red wig that
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: I wore for Katies. That's your so I could find
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: a character with Maybe someone actually said Kim possible.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good one.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: At the Bachelrette party, I was like, Oh, I wonder,
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: I wonder if I can use this for like a
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: Halloween costume. I don't know, I can think of a
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: cute idea.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Maybe.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, well keep you posted. I might be doing
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: something with a red wig. We shall see. All right, Well,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: that's our spooky bucket list. We're now going to briefly
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: talk about our horror stories through our health and wellness journey.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: I have a few.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Madison has a few that we're gonna kind of just
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: talk about quickly because this kind of inspired me because
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: I've seen a few podcast episodes just about like horror
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: stories when it comes to like dating or horror stories
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: of like.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Things that may have actually happened to you.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Let are kind of like more spooky, like ghost you know, paranormal.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Activity, vibes, whatever the heck.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: I don't really have a story about that, but I'm like,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I have some horror stories when it comes to like
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: things I did in my health and wellness journey that
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: I look back on and I'm like, what the fuck
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: was I thinking, Like that is scary to think about
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: doing that again. Yeah, but yeah, So he are some
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: of the ones that I kind of went through. The
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: first one was completely removing dairy out of my lifestyle.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: This was the most stupidest thing I think I've ever done.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: I think back then, I was following so many influencers
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: who were I guess dairy free, and they were drinking
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: almond milk or oat milk, and at the time, I
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: just felt this need where I.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: Had to make the switch.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: And this was like when people like were starting to
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: make like almond milk. This was like the first time
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: I ever kind of came out so weird.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: Because it was like this whole it was almost like
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: a trend where like no one was drinking regular milk,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: and it was so bizarre and like convincing us that
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: like milk is bad, ye, like milk is like in everything.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was such a weird time in our life,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: and I felt like if you were like a person
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: that was striving to be healthy, you had to jump
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: on this trend. And it felt like all these health
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: and wellness influencers that were drinking almond milk. I don't
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: even think oat milk was a thing at that time,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: to be. I just remember constantly buying almond milk, and
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I remember my parents still buying dairy, and they would
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: put dairy in like you know, mashed potatoes or whatever
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: that they were cooking us for dinner. And I'm like, oh, well, no,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: I gotta have almond milk. Yeah.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Like that, again, we weren't even classified as like lactose,
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: and like we we.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: Could consume dairy and have no issues.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: Everyone else was doing it.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I got to hop on the trend. And now
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: here here we are, everyone's going back to dairy. And
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: now people are actually having complications of bringing back dairy
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: into their lifestyle because they were drinking almond milk and
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: oh milk for so long. Yeah, and again there's pros
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: and cons to each. I don't think dairy or the
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: plant based milks are like they're different in their own.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Ways, and it's like everyone's different, Like plant based may
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: work for your body, yeah for you, or dairy may
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: be what's what works best for you. It's just funny how.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: Like we were drinking dairy no problem, and then we decided, oh,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: we got to hop on this trend, like if you
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: can't drink dairy or you're literally lactose intolerant, like don't
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: consume dairy, like have plant based milks. But if you
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: can drink dairy, why are we changing it up? Like,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: let's not hop on these stupid trends. So that's probably
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: the first one because I think it was like a
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: while for us to kind of get back to the
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: taste of dairy and like our stomach kind of adjusting
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: to dairy again. So now we're both back on dairy
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: and our stomachs are happy, so that's a good thing.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: One of my horror stories that I think I can
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: talk about is for the longest time, I feel like
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: I really struggled, and I think Kaylee struggled with this too.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Is I used to get these like little bumps like
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: all over my face and take in before I had
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: like a very very simple routine, but once again from
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: TikTok and like just like trends on social media.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Like buying new skincare products and you see that are trendang, So.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Like I don't even remember what products I was using before,
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: but I remember I was using products that worked, and
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: then I switched to what everybody else was using. I
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: feel like there was like a time where everyone was
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: using Sarah Bay. Is that how you're saying, Sarah? So
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: then I felt like I had to switch to sarave,
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: even though what I was doing was fine. And also
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: a lot of people were like using like chemical exfolians
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: and things like that, So then I started implementing that,
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: and I feel like I was doing all this stuff
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: without understanding like how to properly use it. Like I'm
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: not saying any of this stuff is bad, but like
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: I just didn't.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Know, well, not even that it could just be like
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: your skin doesn't react well product with.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: The chemical exfullience. I definitely just didn't know how to
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: properly use it then. But also too with like, for example, sarave,
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: like I just it didn't work for my skin, so
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: I was getting all these bumps and I just didn't
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: know what it was. So I did all this research
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: and I was like, you know what, I'm going to
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: like the most basic, basic routine. I literally bought a
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: facewash from like Nutrigena with like three ingredients in it,
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: like literally like so so simple and a moisture, and
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: to this day, I still use the moisturizer. And now
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: I feel like I do a lot of research before
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: including new products into my routine, Like I make sure
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: I feel like I now know from all the research
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: I did, specific ingredients that do break me out, Yeah,
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: to avoid, to avoid exactly. So I feel like now
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: I have a good, you know, routine. But it was
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: just kind of like once again a funny story or
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: horror story of how you know I was. I was
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: following what I was seeing on social media and not
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: knowing that that was the reason, and I was getting
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: these like bumps. Also, do I think of buddy stories
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: that I used to try, like these like natural face masks.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: Have you seen them on TikTok where people use like
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: Greek yogurt on or like egg yo or like.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: Turmoric banana peels.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would like putty like honey, like just like
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: making like I literally make this DIY face mask and
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: my kitchen and my mom's like what are you doing?
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Like I'd bring it up to my room and I'd
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: wear it overnight. Yeah, I'm not sure if it did anything.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: I feel like I never noticed a big difference, but yeah,
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: that's just like another funny story.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: I will say Madison is like my go to person
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: whenever I do buy a new product. I'm like, Okay,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: tell me the ingredients because we do have similar skin types,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: which is nice because I feel like she can kind
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: of help me out for specific face washes and all that.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: But one thing about me is I'm very very simple
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: when it comes to my face wash skincare. Like I
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: see so many girls like with the retinal and the
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: chemical expollience and whatever, and again that works for you great,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: but like for me, I've realized that the more I
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: put on my face, the more it's going to react.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: Ye, because I like yeah, and I feel like two
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: less is more. So like yeah, I feel like if
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: there's a product with like a bunch of ingredients, it's
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: typically something that like I try not to use or
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: like I'll just like make sure to research and ensure
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: that like all the ingredients are like okay and good
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: for my skin. But it's definitely nice that we have
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: very similar skin types because I know, like if she
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: tries a new product and it doesn't break her out,
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: then I'm like okay, I feel like I'm probably okay
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: considering she's fine, so okay.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: The next one for me in terms of a horror
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: story that I've had is my toxic relationship with food.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: I used to be so toxic.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna lie, Like I've talked about this
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: in the past, but I used to completely cut out
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: entire food groups, like I didn't want to have any
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: fat or carbs. Sometimes I would also like skip meals completely,
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: you know, not realizing that me actually, like not eating
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: was probably actually gaining weight for myself, Like I actually
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: wasn't seeing a difference in my body. And then I
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: started to find a healthy relationship with food, you know,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: figure out okay, eating you know, lean proteins and eating
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: the carbs, like the healthy carbs that we see like
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: sweet potatoes, potatoes, rice, Like then I started to realize that,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: oh wait, okay, these are actually the proper foods that
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: we should be eating. Like for the longest time, I
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: was scared to eat a fucking avocado because it was
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: so high in fat, Like that is so toxic. I remember,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: I used to remove like pasta out of my routine,
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Like I would only eat like zoodles, which is basically
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: zucchini in the form of noodles.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: They are good, but like the fact I had to
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: replace it.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, or I would go to a restaurant and I'd
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: be so terrified to order like, you know, a past
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: a meal and be like, oh, like this is going
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: to ruin my progress. I'm gonna wake up and I'm
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: gonna lose all the you know working out that I did.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: Blah blah blah. It was so freaking toxic.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: And I think over time, just kind of like educating
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: myself actually doing the research, I kind of found a
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: way of healing and actually figuring out ways to build
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: lean muscle and figuring out that Okay, it's good to
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: actually eat these healthy fats. It's good to actually have
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: these lean proteins. It's good to have the balance of
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: going out to a restaurant indulging what you want, eat
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: what you create, because if you avoid eating those food groups, like,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: it's actually gonna be worse. So finding the balance also
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: has been a huge lifesaver. But yeah, I think that's
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: probably one horror story that like really just I don't know,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: I wish it never happened because I think it really
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: damaged like just my mental state when it came to
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: eating and you shouldn't see food as the enemy.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: You should see it as fuel, and you should see.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: It as something that you know makes you feel energized,
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: it makes you feel good.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: And a problem when it comes to like eating healthy,
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: especially now that you've like sort of found foods that
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: you like and what you don't like, I feel like
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: it's not even about like, oh, eating healthy because I
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: have to. It's like, oh, I actually enjoy yes, yeah,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: and that's the whole point. Like you're eating food because
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: you enjoy it, or you're eating specific foods because that's
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: what you want.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: But I think also people like, forget how some of
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: these healthy foods like sweet potato it's so good, like
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like it's it's healthy, but
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: it's so good in my opinion, Like white rice, it's
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: that's not a bad thing to have.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: It's a simple car.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: But maybe back in the day people were like, oh god,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: you gotta eat brown rice not white rice, or you
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: gotta have quen wa like freak the rice. Like I
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: have to be honest, I do not like quenoa. It's healthy,
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: but I do not like it. That is one healthy.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: Food I know.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: But anyways, so I just wanted to talk about that
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: because that was a very bad time in my life
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: that I do not miss whatsoever. And I'm so happy
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: I healed my relationship with food because now I'm all
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: about balance.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: I crave and eat what I want, and yeah.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: I'm just happy that I don't have to deal with that,
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: because that is a horror story to think about.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: I feel like I also have another horror story, not
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: really with food, but with caffeine. My journey with caffeine
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: has been pretty crazy. So I remember back in the day,
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: like when I first started university, I hated coffee, Like
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: I hated the taste of coffee, would never have it.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: But like all my friends were having it, and like
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: they were talking about, like, oh, I need a coffee
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: to like get through studying for this exam, like and
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: so I started thinking, like I need to start drinking coffee.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Like how am I going to do?
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: How am I going to get through it?
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah? How am I going to get through university without
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: having coffee? But because I hated the taste of coffee
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: so much, I would have to put so much sugar
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: in buy coffee. Like you remember the way I used to.
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: Make my traps.
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: I would add cream I would like put like two,
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: like I don't even know the creamers, like yeah, all
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: the creamers a bunch of sugar, like just for it
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: to taste good. And I'm like, okay, I'm good. But
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: I think, honestly, on top of that, plus, I feel
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: like I was honestly trying to drink too much coffee
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: and just going from like not drinking coffee at all
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: to now like two coffee's a day with all this sugar.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: It honestly was way too much for my body to handle.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Literally remember starting to have the shakes, like my body
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: was legit shaking because it just couldn't handle all of
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: you know, all the caffeine, the sugar, all that. So
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: then I started to kind of like wean off it,
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: like I just started not drinking it as much and
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: also trying to you know, I think over time, I
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: actually started to enjoy the taste of coffee more so,
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: like adding less sugar less creamers, and like I really
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: just like went on this journey of trying to figure out, Okay,
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: what's a creamer. I like, that's still healthy, what's you know,
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: like maybe only a little teaspoon of sugar things like that,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: and over time, I just like started you know, adding
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: less and less creamer, less and less sweetener because I
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: just started to actually love the taste of coffee. But
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: then I kind of went through another period where like
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: my anxiety started getting bad, where like I was having
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: caffeine before for having breakfast, so like no food and
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: like ee legit was so anxious all day. And I
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: notice a pattern that I'd be anxious when I had coffee,
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: and so I feel like that taught me. Okay, I
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: kind of completely once again eliminated caffeine and switched to
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: DCALF and I was only drinking decalf. But I also
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: like I remember, you know, I loved n Espresso pods
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: and there was only like specific pods Decaf, so I
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: was like getting SAgs. I was like, oh, like I
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: can't have this pop. I was like, you know what,
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: I can build a routine that works for me. So
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: I really tried to kind of figure out what worked
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: best for my body. So one thing was, you know,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: eating before having caffeine, Like that's a non negotiable for
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: me now, and maybe on the days where I am
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: feeling more anxious, I'll switch to decalf. Like for example,
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: I'm always anxious on my period, so I'll try to
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: drink decalf more throughout my period. But yeah, I feel
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: like now I have our tintine and a better relationship
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: with caffeine because I know how it affects my body
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: and what I can do to sort of avoid that.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: And there are still times where like I'll have caffeine
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: and I'm like super anxious, and I'll be like, oh,
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: I shouldn't have had a coffee.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Today, Like no, it's so true, like even for me too.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: I feel like it depends on my cycle as a woman.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Obviously we go through different phases throughout our menstrual cycle.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: And I feel like if I have a coffee some days,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: I notice that I am more anxious than others. And
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: I always have a big breakfast before I have a coffee.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: So I'm the same way non negotiable, neat t eat
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: a breakfast before I have my coffee. But you can
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: also obviously like see how strong the caffeine is in
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: certain pods with espresso, which is nice, so we usually
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: get ones that are not like overly strong again to
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: avoid anxiety. So I have a similar situation. I also
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: find this kind of goes with my horror story is
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: sometimes alcohol relates to anxiety, which I think not enough
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: people talk about that, because I think there's a lot
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: of people out there that probably go to the same
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: situation where they feel super anxious the next day or
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: in the moment when they are drinking, especially like that's
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: why I don't drink that much.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: Is because it spikes my anxiety.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: And maybe some people don't realize that for themselves either,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: but for me, I started to notice that, and I'm like, Okay,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: is it really worth having those two glasses of wine?
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Probably not. If I have like one glass of wine
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: or one spicy mark or something, usually I'm okay the
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: next day. But again, that's the same thing with coffee.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: I don't have more than one coffee a day. If
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: I had more than one coffee a day, my anxiety,
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: I also like, will not sleep.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: No, that's the thing.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: We both cannot have a coffee in the afternoon like
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: past Like one pm is my max. If I have
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: anything at like two or three, I'm not going about
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: sleeping now. I will not be sleeping. So we're both
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: kind of the same in that sense. But yeah, okay.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: My last horror story when it comes to like my
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: health and wellness journey would be not having any rest days.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: When I was obsessed with my health and wellness journey,
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: I could not stop working out. Like I was working
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: out seven days a week, I was not giving my
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: body enough rest days, which thinking back, I'm shocked that
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: I never like severely injured myself because I was also
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: lifting heavy weights and when you're doing that so often,
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: it's so toxic for your body. So finding the balance
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: of being able to like actually realize that you need
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: the rest days because your body needs to kind of
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: just like process what you've done these past few days,
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: and then oh, you know, the following day after your
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: rest day, you get back into the workout that you
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: want to do.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: So I think again, it's.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: More so just like research and like honestly following other
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: influencers that have kind of like helped me out in
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: the sense. Like again back in the day, this is
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: when I wasn't an influencer, but following other like fitness
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: influencers or people who are in like the health and
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: wellness journey of understanding that like it's so important for
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: these rest days kind of inspired me to realize, Okay,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: this is actually better for my body, and it's going
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: to help me avoid you know, potential injury in the future.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: And you know, on my rest days, I find ways
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: to move my body to make me feel good, which
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: is walking, right, Like walking is a huge one for me.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: So if I'm not working out, I'm typically going on
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: a thirty to forty minute walk that day, so at
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: least I know I've done some movement. And I don't know,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: I just think it makes me go into my day
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: feeling a bit better.
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: And yeah, I don't know. I feel like like any
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: tip of.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: Movement just is my source of therapy, Like I feel
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: like I need it, not just to I don't know,
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: like it just it's an aera, you know what it is.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: It's it's a way to clear my head. Yeah, that's
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: what it is. When I'm feeling overwhelmed with work or
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: feeling stressed or anxious, going on a walk or doing
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: my workout completely just like blocks anything out.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, they do say all the time that like
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: any sort of exercise is a form of like therapy,
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: like it's it releases like endorphins or exactly mean something
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: like that. So it makes sense.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: Because someone actually asks me on my Instagram story, like, oh,
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: what motivates you so much to work out all the time?
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, honestly, it's just like the feeling. It's good,
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: Like it feels good. Like again, I enjoy those rest days,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: but I still like to find ways to move my
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: body because mentally, it just like makes me feel good.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: Like I also feel like it sets the.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: Tone, especially if you're doing a workout in the morning
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: or you're going for a walk in the morning, it
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: sets the tone for the day. I notice a lot
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: that if I have a workout in the morning, I
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: feel way more productive. I just feel better about myself.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: I feel good. Like it just puts me in this
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: like great mindset and I just I feel good and
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: I'm like ready to start the day. And I also
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: think too, it's important what you were saying about, like
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: rest days and all that is also just like listening
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: to your body. You may have a routine that you follow,
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: Let's say it's like five days a week that you
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: worked out, but you may wake up one morning and
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: your back is hurting or your shoulders hurting. Yeah, well
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: I had my back in exactly, and you're like, you
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: know what, I'm going to listen to my body and
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna take the day off, and that's okay. If
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: this week you only work out three times instead of
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: five times, like that's totally okay. Like listening to your body,
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: I think is so important. But also if you're at
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: your workout studio, like just having that mental note like okay,
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: you know my ankle's a little sore, or like let's
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: not push it. Let's not push it. That was lower
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: on the weights today, like things.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: That was literally me today, Like I literally was in
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: plates today and I tried to in my head, I was, Okay,
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: your back injury is still here. Yeah, my physio has
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: cleared me to do more workouts, and I have a
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: hard time not challenging myself. I don't know, yah, I
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: think it's like just something I want to, you want to.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: So then she says to do a move and I'm
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: already kind of feeling uncomfortable in my back, and then
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: of course I try and do it, and what do
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: you think happens?
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: The carriage literally slams, and I'm like, oh, this is
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: why I shouldn't have done it.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So then I stopped completely and I was like, okay,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: that's my body telling.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: Me that you should be doing this, you need to stop.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: So I listened to my body. I stopped. And that's
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: why it's really important to listen to your body. I
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: totally agree with that.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: So the last little horror story, I feel like I
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: have kind of like what Kaylee talked about in terms
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: of food. I feel like, and still to this day,
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: I have such a huge graving for sweets. I'm just
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: like such a sweet tooth girl, like just like junk
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: food in general, Like give me like a beg of
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: chips or like you know, like sour patch kids or
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: like my favorite. But I feel like I struggled a
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: lot with like trying to find a balance. Like I
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: feel like I went through a period where I felt
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: like I did have to like completely eliminate it, and
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: it was like hard for me because I was like, well,
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: you know, I still crave it, this is all I want.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: So I think it's really important, Like Kaylee always says,
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: like following like sort of like the eighty twenty rule
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: and like knowing that it's okay to like indulge every
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: now and then, and like if you're feeling a craving,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: like that's totally okay. You know, like I'll have my
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: cheap days where you know, I'll do takeout and then
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: I'll go to the grocery store and I'll buy a
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: little sweet treat for myself, whether that's like a little
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: beg of chips or like you know, sour Patch kids,
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: or like I love Reese's pieces, Like I'll get a
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: little treat like that for myself. I also find like
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's fun to do if you're like
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: going to like a girl's night, Like I'll pick something
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: up on the way to a girl's night, even if
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: it's like not mandatory for me to bring anything. I'll
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: be like, you know what, like this is my way
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: to have a little sweet cheer. Yeah, like I'm having
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: it with my friends. So I feel like that also
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: really helps. And I feel like I also too, also
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: had a period of like where I wasn't eating breakfast,
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: and that kind of ties into like my sort of
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: caffeine journey as well.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: And also like your relationship with food.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly, Like I wasn't eating in the mornings
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: and I was having coffee and then I was anxious
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: and it was just not a good relationship with food,
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: and it wasn't good for my body. And so I
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: feel like now since you know making it a priority
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: to have a big breakfast and to have a breakfast
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: I enjoy. And I'll be honest right now, I've been
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: hating breakfast, like I FaceTime Killie every single day, being like,
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: I don't know what to eat this morning, and it's
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: really annoying. But this is why you need to.
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: Try new recipes.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Exactly. I still make sure, whether it's just a banana,
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: like I make sure to have something in the morning
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: because that's what makes me feel good and that's what's
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: good for my body. So even if it's just a banana,
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: just anything I can have in the morning to sort
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: of fuel me for the day has been, yeah, a
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: priority for me.
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: But you recently started having oatmeal and you've.
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: Been like, I've been liking oatmeal right now. I'm just
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: like the type where like I will have the same
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: breakfast for like days in a row, weeks, and then
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: I'm like one day, I'm just like I'm sick of it.
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: I'm done, and so then I really struggle with trying
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: to find something new. So yeah, I'm going through that
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: right now. If anyone else is I'm right there with you.
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm I'm excited to find a breakfast that
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: just like excites me. Kaylee seems to have one right
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: now that I do.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: I change it up, I ditch. So we were having
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: yogurt bowls and that's what he kind of steered you
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: away from it. I've recently changed to savory breakfasts with
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: the avocado egg and all that, and She's confused how
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: I went from sweet to savory. But I'm like, I
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: think it's honestly like a mental thing. I think you
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: just have to do it.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: I have to force myself.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: And then it just I don't know. Now I wouldn't
• 41:13
