- 1:41Speaker 1: Uh and so I'm lucky enough. I really am fortunate. Unfortunately,
- 1:44Speaker 1: Ashley is not here, which is sad because I come

- 1:49Speaker 1: I replace her with the beautiful, the funny Alexis Waters,
- 1:54Speaker 1: who we all know and love. But Alexis. Please, if

- 2:02Speaker 1: if they don't, how would they know you? Please give
- 2:05Speaker 1: us a little of your Bachelor history. Okay. Um, first night,
- 2:09Speaker 1: for my first impression, I showed up in a what
- 2:12Speaker 1: I like to call dolphin costume. Was wasted and I
- 2:17Speaker 1: got a first and I didn't get the first rest
- 2:19Speaker 1: of rose. But yeah, that's what people would know me
- 2:22Speaker 1: as I literally still go out to this day and
- 2:24Speaker 1: everybody says dolphin girl, like I'm not I don't even
- 2:27Speaker 1: have a name, and then people think that I'm Raven
- 2:30Speaker 1: all the time, and it's actually embarrassing for my life
- 2:32Speaker 1: and soul because then once they meet me, they're like, oh,
- 2:36Speaker 1: you're not Raven, and then they like get disappointed. So
- 2:40Speaker 1: you were dolphin. That kind of became this like super
- 2:44Speaker 1: odd storyline between are you a dolphin or a shark.
- 2:48Speaker 1: They pushed me to the They pushed me to the
- 2:50Speaker 1: credits the whole time. Basically I was the credit I
- 2:53Speaker 1: was the credit girl because I celebrated my boo birthday.
- 2:56Speaker 1: I was scared of Nicholas Cage. But your boob birthday, yeah,
- 3:00Speaker 1: I like got my boob. I got a boop job.
- 3:04Speaker 1: So I celebrated like my boob job birthday on the
- 3:07Speaker 1: show with neck Yeah I don't remember that, and we
- 3:10Speaker 1: had cake and we say I Happy birthday to my boobs.
- 3:12Speaker 1: It was pretty fine, how calm and how big? I
- 3:16Speaker 1: wanted to go bigger? Did the doctor say don't. Well,
- 3:20Speaker 1: I worked out too soon, like the first time around,
- 3:23Speaker 1: so I messed them up so they were like awkwardly
- 3:26Speaker 1: like uneven. So then I had to get them done,
- 3:28Speaker 1: like regardless, and then I was like, might as well
- 3:30Speaker 1: go bigger? So you got them done twice. I just
- 3:32Speaker 1: want to get the clarification. Ben, I'm sorry, I know
- 3:35Speaker 1: you can't really. Yeah, I'm not even gonna come. So
- 3:40Speaker 1: were they you just didn't like them because they were small? No?
- 3:44Speaker 1: I worked out too soon? So I got like, what
- 3:46Speaker 1: about when when you were born? Oh yeah, no, I
- 3:49Speaker 1: was like really flat okay, so then you was a
- 3:52Speaker 1: small bay. I was in flat okay, b And then
- 3:54Speaker 1: when you go to a c Yeah, now I think
- 3:56Speaker 1: I'm a day. I don't bug you know. I love
- 3:59Speaker 1: them best decision of my life. And I didn't hurt her.
- 4:03Speaker 1: It did, Yeah, I heard it her. And I'm a
- 4:05Speaker 1: big workout girl, so like not working out killed me.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Can we move on? Yeah? Sorry, we'll come back to Yeah, okay,
- 4:13Speaker 1: so you celebrate your birthday. You're the dolphins slash I'm
- 4:17Speaker 1: just like flustered right now, You're a dolphin slash shark girl.
- 4:22Speaker 1: And then did you or did you not find love
- 4:24Speaker 1: on the Bachelor? No? I did not. I found it outside.
- 4:27Speaker 1: I mean I basically found it through the Bachelor because
- 4:32Speaker 1: I met him. I met him through one of the
- 4:34Speaker 1: girls from the show Rachel. Okay, so this leads me
- 4:37Speaker 1: to my next question. What's going on? You're famously now
- 4:40Speaker 1: not single. Uh, it's the rumor mill that you are
- 4:43Speaker 1: in a committed relationship. His name is Alexis Philman Tyler
- 4:47Speaker 1: Fernandez and you met him how through Rachel Lindsay The
- 4:51Speaker 1: Bachelorette and tell us a little about him. He is
- 4:54Speaker 1: the total opposite of May. He's the biggest due by
- 4:57Speaker 1: now I'm kidding now he's really He's like complete opposite
- 5:01Speaker 1: of me. But it like it works. Like he's very quiet,
- 5:04Speaker 1: like I'm like loud and annoying, and he's just like
- 5:08Speaker 1: very ambitious, very sensitive and I'm not sensitive at all.
- 5:11Speaker 1: So but it works. I mean, is this this is
- 5:14Speaker 1: the real deal, just in terms of where you're at
- 5:16Speaker 1: right now in life. I'm not going to make you
- 5:17Speaker 1: say he is the one. He's the one. Whoa, whoa whoa. Yeah,
- 5:23Speaker 1: it's a long distance too, but we make it work.
- 5:25Speaker 1: So he you believe looking into your future, he will
- 5:28Speaker 1: be there. Yeah. Why, Like I mean not like why
- 5:31Speaker 1: like wow, that's a bad but like why, like how

- 8:19Speaker 1: behind it. Most of the time it is to find
- 8:21Speaker 1: love or find somebody you're excited. But typically they come
- 8:24Speaker 1: off of the shows and enter into very serious relationships.
- 8:28Speaker 1: In your opinion, why is that, Like, how do they

- 12:15Speaker 1: I mean I just heard like word of mouth that
- 12:18Speaker 1: she's like a genuine cool down to earth check. So
- 12:22Speaker 1: I'm excited. And she got her heartbroken on TV, so
- 12:24Speaker 1: like she deserves it. Definitely that had to be hard.
- 12:26Speaker 1: I mean, coming from this world, what happened to back
- 12:29Speaker 1: on TV was real and it affected her, but I
- 12:31Speaker 1: also think it gave her a pretty good, uh starting
- 12:35Speaker 1: spot yea to everybody, like like everybody like vailed for her,
- 12:40Speaker 1: so like she this is this is gonna be a
- 12:43Speaker 1: good run. I feel like, did you meet Ari? I
- 12:46Speaker 1: have never met Ari face to face, but I was
- 12:49Speaker 1: rooting for Ri two because Rachel met him and she
- 12:51Speaker 1: said he was so cool. So like I was doing
- 12:53Speaker 1: recaps and stuff and I was like, so team Ari.
- 12:57Speaker 1: And then at the end I was like, well, I
- 12:59Speaker 1: think that was everybody's reaction. And now we look at
- 13:01Speaker 1: our and were like, hey, you found love there. You know,

- 13:05Speaker 1: house together. They've been traveling the world. I mean, this
- 13:09Speaker 1: is a big deal. So now we celebrate Ari, not

- 13:15Speaker 1: I mean it's tough. He've been there. He kind of
- 13:17Speaker 1: dug his own grave at times. Yeah. No, of course,

- 17:42Speaker 1: have to tell you though, I'm going through a dead zone,
- 17:44Speaker 1: so I may cut out on you here, I can.
- 17:49Speaker 1: I can do it. Then, if you're going through a
- 17:50Speaker 1: death spot, I love a Southern accent. You know, it's funny,
- 17:59Speaker 1: you know how this happens. Then? In fact, I just
- 18:01Speaker 1: thought you were in Nashurll not too long ago, and uh,
- 18:05Speaker 1: you know, next time you're in this there, you've got
- 18:07Speaker 1: to give us the holic because we're right We're fifteen
- 18:10Speaker 1: minutes from Nashville. But I was here and Elizabeth obviously
- 18:14Speaker 1: was in l A at the time, and went out
- 18:16Speaker 1: there to keep an event with a couple of guys
- 18:19Speaker 1: from my season, and uh, just so happened be that
- 18:23Speaker 1: Eliza's kit was was there with a couple of her
- 18:26Speaker 1: girlfriends and we met. However, I was dating someone and
- 18:31Speaker 1: she was just kind of seeing someone as well and
- 18:34Speaker 1: just didn't work out. When we game prints and everything,
- 18:37Speaker 1: you know, came full circle a few years later at
- 18:41Speaker 1: one of the reunions, uh, and we kind of started
- 18:45Speaker 1: talking a little bit, and then Elizabeth was getting ready
- 18:48Speaker 1: to leave l A. She said, you know, I'm ready
- 18:51Speaker 1: to move on, ready to do something else, and uh
- 18:54Speaker 1: make me think about going back home to Nebraska. And
- 18:57Speaker 1: I was like, well, you should come to n Actville.
- 18:59Speaker 1: That's when kind of a hot town right now. It's
- 19:02Speaker 1: a cool place and I gotta come visit. And uh,
- 19:06Speaker 1: I saw this on all places on Facebook where everybody
- 19:10Speaker 1: finds out everything. I saw that her status went to
- 19:12Speaker 1: single for a call, and uh, so she kind of
- 19:22Speaker 1: gave me, not really an ultimatum, but I was like, Hey,
- 19:26Speaker 1: you need to come visit Nashville and now I'm single. Now.
- 19:30Speaker 1: I was like on interviews, Valentine, did you change your
- 19:33Speaker 1: Facebook status to the single? Mine was a single? But
- 19:37Speaker 1: obviously I was the one that saw that when she
- 19:39Speaker 1: changed it, because it was only changed like a day
- 19:41Speaker 1: or changing before. I gave her a call and she
- 19:44Speaker 1: was like, hey, well I'll come see you just bought
- 19:47Speaker 1: me a ticket to come out there, and I was
- 19:48Speaker 1: like done. She came out, spent four or five days. Uh.
- 19:54Speaker 1: I honestly, you know, fell in love with her good time.
- 19:59Speaker 1: I knew her that well. We had talked, we were friends,
- 20:03Speaker 1: and just heart being out here that weekend was enough
- 20:07Speaker 1: for me, and I was like, look, I was like,
- 20:09Speaker 1: you're thinking about going to where this bashball to be
- 20:11Speaker 1: an auction for you? Uh. Three months later she talked
- 20:14Speaker 1: about moving out. She did. Uh. She brought all of
- 20:18Speaker 1: her stuff with her. Six months later we were engaged.
- 20:22Speaker 1: Six months after that we were married. That's amazing, crazy, Huh.

- 20:32Speaker 1: We were married asn't this year for March. Yeah, when
- 20:38Speaker 1: you're having fun. It's a little bit of background here.
- 20:43Speaker 1: Elizabeth kit was on and I don't know if she
- 20:45Speaker 1: can hear me right now, Harris, right now or not? Uh?
- 20:47Speaker 1: If she can, she can answer this. If not, then
- 20:50Speaker 1: you can take it away. You're both on which seasons
- 20:52Speaker 1: of The Bachelor and Bachelor. She was on Jake Talkolki season. Yeah,
- 20:59Speaker 1: how you say it? I like how you said that.

- 21:10Speaker 1: was on his season. And uh, that is actually where
- 21:15Speaker 1: my bat Sarette came from. Ali. So I was on
- 21:18Speaker 1: Alley season the very next season. So h yeah, there's
- 21:23Speaker 1: from there, being that Elizabeth was on Ali, was on
- 21:28Speaker 1: the season with Ali, and then Ali became the bat
- 21:32Speaker 1: Sarette and that's the season we were. We were just
- 21:35Speaker 1: commenting here. Alexis and I were in studio before we
- 21:38Speaker 1: called you up. You are both a very handsome couple.
- 21:41Speaker 1: I mean, like it is. We're looking at your picture
- 21:43Speaker 1: and it's stunning. I recommend anybody out there just googling

- 22:16Speaker 1: about your relationship earlier. Is your status changed? I don't
- 22:19Speaker 1: have a Facebook? Yeah, U right now, that's how we
- 22:28Speaker 1: find out not percentified? Dude, what's going on? I'd agree.
- 22:33Speaker 1: So Elizabeth uh Kit is back with us right now.
- 22:37Speaker 1: We've just got word that she is back in the
- 22:38Speaker 1: clear zone. Um moving in. We were just talking about
- 22:43Speaker 1: how attractive of a couple you you are. We we
- 22:47Speaker 1: were looking at your pictures. I believe that's in US
- 22:50Speaker 1: uh is US weekly And I mean, what an amazing story.
- 22:55Speaker 1: And one of the best things about this podcast, in
- 22:57Speaker 1: my opinion, is that we try to to share in
- 23:01Speaker 1: highlight stories that are relatable, that not all always are
- 23:05Speaker 1: easy to hear, but that there's a victory in in
- 23:09Speaker 1: the grief, in victory in the pain. And you guys
- 23:11Speaker 1: are celebrating something right now that I would love for
- 23:14Speaker 1: you to tell all of our listeners about. Well, we
- 23:17Speaker 1: have a twelve day old baby girl. She's our little angel,
- 23:27Speaker 1: and uh we have been working on getting pregnant, gosh
- 23:32Speaker 1: um ever since we got married. Actually, uh, we kind
- 23:36Speaker 1: of had a whirlwind dating experience and UM kind of
- 23:41Speaker 1: got engaged quickly and got married quick and uh, we
- 23:45Speaker 1: knew right away we want to start a family. And
- 23:48Speaker 1: I remember thinking, you know, we were trying on our
- 23:51Speaker 1: wedding night, and I'm thinking people are going to think
- 23:54Speaker 1: that we just rushed to get married because we got pregnant. UM,
- 23:58Speaker 1: But it didn't happen like that. We didn't pregnant, and
- 24:01Speaker 1: UM we did all kinds of tests and I couldn't
- 24:05Speaker 1: find out the or nothing was showing any reason why
- 24:09Speaker 1: we can get pregnant on our own. UM, but we
- 24:13Speaker 1: ended up going through fertility and UM going through I
- 24:17Speaker 1: d F and we had one miscarriage and we had
- 24:21Speaker 1: we were down to our final embryo UM miss Blakely.
- 24:24Speaker 1: She was frozen for a year before we did the
- 24:28Speaker 1: embryo transfer with her and got pregnant and actually found
- 24:32Speaker 1: out we were pregnant on the day of the solar
- 24:35Speaker 1: solar eclipse in August. So UM, that was a lot
- 24:39Speaker 1: of fun and she UM, she's been doing great so far.
- 24:43Speaker 1: So we're just really blessed. What I mean, I think
- 24:47Speaker 1: we would be mistaken and Alexi and I would love
- 24:51Speaker 1: to hear I mean, those those four years leading up to, um,
- 24:55Speaker 1: this recent celebration of birth. What was I mean, there's
- 24:58Speaker 1: a lot of people out there listening, and I guarantee
- 25:00Speaker 1: you once you share your story, we're gonna do a
- 25:02Speaker 1: lot of emails. And for anybody wanting to email us,
- 25:04Speaker 1: feel free to emailus at Ben and Ashley iHeart media
- 25:06Speaker 1: dot com. Um, what would be your advice to people
- 25:10Speaker 1: couples going through that time period where it just feels
- 25:14Speaker 1: I'm assuming, um, difficult and confusing? Yeah, Uh, it really is.
- 25:23Speaker 1: And I don't know that we kind of knew exactly
- 25:27Speaker 1: what we were getting into. How you can correct me
- 25:30Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, But I think we just started, you know,
- 25:33Speaker 1: pursuing the path of IVF and here we are a
- 25:38Speaker 1: newly married couple as well, So um, that in and
- 25:42Speaker 1: of itself is kind of hard. Um. And I think
- 25:47Speaker 1: the whole process just really brought us together and made
- 25:50Speaker 1: our relationships stronger, and um, you know, we learned a
- 25:55Speaker 1: lot along the way. I think the advice I would
- 25:59Speaker 1: give is just the to maintain the hope. Um. And
- 26:06Speaker 1: what a prayer? So what does it feel like now
- 26:09Speaker 1: the past twelve days? Uh? Because your little family are
- 26:14Speaker 1: all worth it a hundred times over. I mean, definitely
- 26:17Speaker 1: worth it. But as Elizabeth saying, sure, um, you never
- 26:24Speaker 1: know what you're getting into. You never know what the
- 26:27Speaker 1: struggle is going to be. Or we didn't have any
- 26:30Speaker 1: so they tell us, uh, you know through doctor wise
- 26:34Speaker 1: everything was fine, but yet we couldn't get what we wanted.
- 26:37Speaker 1: So we knew what we wanted. We knew with the
- 26:40Speaker 1: end result we wanted. We know what we wanted. In
- 26:43Speaker 1: the path there, we had no clue on what we
- 26:46Speaker 1: were doing. But I can tell you patient, Uh, it
- 26:51Speaker 1: took tons of patience my wife cousin needle phobia and
- 26:56Speaker 1: uh and for those that don't know, what I have
- 26:58Speaker 1: to is that don't know what the process is. There
- 27:01Speaker 1: are a lots and lots of needles and uh there's
- 27:05Speaker 1: drugs and stuff that are that she had to take that.
- 27:09Speaker 1: I mean, she GE's so sacrifice the time for us
- 27:13Speaker 1: to be where we're at right now. So be mistaken.
- 27:17Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of sacrifice on both of
- 27:21Speaker 1: our part, especially on her, not the process of exple
- 27:27Speaker 1: and everything else, which is probably getting a little bit
- 27:29Speaker 1: too much than y'all really want to know. Trust me,
- 27:32Speaker 1: we started out this time a woman, and ah, it's
- 27:41Speaker 1: stressful when it happens naturally, but try jacking them up
- 27:45Speaker 1: and making them ten times what they are naturally and
- 27:48Speaker 1: then trying to get your mind wraps around that. It
- 27:52Speaker 1: is very, very trying on relationship. There's so many, so
- 27:58Speaker 1: many things that can happen, and you just really just
- 28:01Speaker 1: have to stay ground and talk to each other and
- 28:02Speaker 1: make sure everything is going, you know, the way it
- 28:05Speaker 1: needs to needs to be. And there are times Elizabeth
- 28:08Speaker 1: had to keep me in check and had to remind
- 28:11Speaker 1: me of you know, what we're going through, and uh,
- 28:15Speaker 1: you know, we take so much for granted when things
- 28:18Speaker 1: happen easy, but after this process, I mean, I know
- 28:23Speaker 1: what people have to go through and what mom and
- 28:26Speaker 1: dad are willing to go through to have a family,
- 28:31Speaker 1: and that is, uh, that's kind of what we what
- 28:33Speaker 1: we know now and we've done we've done everything that
- 28:37Speaker 1: you could do on this from this standpoint of the process.
- 28:40Speaker 1: And now it's the fun part. And then that's being
- 28:43Speaker 1: mom and dad. We're excited and it's it's you know,
- 28:48Speaker 1: thank goodness, our baby is being as being really good
- 28:52Speaker 1: at this point. Uh. And Elizabeth again is sacrifice that
- 28:56Speaker 1: she's at home right now and I'm trying to work
- 28:59Speaker 1: a little bit, but I was supposed to be gone
- 29:01Speaker 1: for two days and that's not happening. I'm already headed
- 29:03Speaker 1: back home because I missed her so much. And uh,
- 29:09Speaker 1: you know, we're excited about where we're going, but it
- 29:12Speaker 1: definitely was a tough pass getting I have zero doubt
- 29:15Speaker 1: and I want to tell you both on behalf of
- 29:18Speaker 1: the Almost Famous podcast, Alexis Ashley, who is not with
- 29:22Speaker 1: us today, myself and I heart Radio, congratulations. Uh, you

- 29:54Speaker 1: I mean, over and over and over again, Alexis, we
- 29:57Speaker 1: continue to be introduced to couples who have met on
- 29:59Speaker 1: the batch er or outside of the Bachelor. There are
- 30:02Speaker 1: success stories everywhere. I'm telling you, this franchise is bringing
- 30:05Speaker 1: love together and I'm going to bring somebody that I
- 30:08Speaker 1: love very much onto the podcast. That you may know, Ashley,
- 30:12Speaker 1: I can Eddie, are you out there? Hello? Then hey Ashley,
- 30:17Speaker 1: actually you're not in studio with us today. Um, and
- 30:20Speaker 1: I want to know why I traveled all with l
- 30:22Speaker 1: A to see you and you leave me. Well, it's
- 30:24Speaker 1: just really annoying timing. So you came the day after
- 30:30Speaker 1: I left, but I was actually in New York primarily
- 30:34Speaker 1: for an I heart Saying an event. I did an interview.
- 30:38Speaker 1: It was Barbara Corkrant from Shark Tank, and it was
- 30:42Speaker 1: an honor of her podcast premiere, which is today. She
- 30:46Speaker 1: actually has a very unique podcast because they're only five
- 30:50Speaker 1: minutes long each week. And it was funny because during
- 30:53Speaker 1: our conversation, she said, I can only hope to capt
- 30:58Speaker 1: to capture people's um, you know, interest for five minutes.
- 31:02Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh wow, well then, and I waste
- 31:05Speaker 1: like an hour and twenty minutes of people's time doing
- 31:08Speaker 1: five minutes. But she's not wasting people's time that she's
- 31:12Speaker 1: definitely she's going to crush that. Actually, I'm with you.
- 31:15Speaker 1: I think that. When you said that, my first thought
- 31:16Speaker 1: went to, hey, we're captivating an hour, maybe we should
- 31:20Speaker 1: start ging ourselves some more credit. Actually, well, I thought
- 31:23Speaker 1: I was thinking, well, I mean, people keep coming back
- 31:26Speaker 1: from the hour and twenty minutes, so that's a good
- 31:28Speaker 1: sign for us, especially if this mostly I think billionaire
- 31:32Speaker 1: from Shark Tank who has a zillion successful businesses, I
- 31:36Speaker 1: think that she can only command five minutes. Um, what
- 31:39Speaker 1: the heck are we doing? What the heck are we doing? Well,
- 31:41Speaker 1: there's something that's what we're doing, and that's exactly right,
- 31:44Speaker 1: all right? That we she has some competition because we
- 31:48Speaker 1: are the number one podcast with I heart, and she
- 31:52Speaker 1: now has to he's going to beat us. Yeah, I'm
- 31:55Speaker 1: not going down were. We are not going down easy.
- 31:57Speaker 1: We're going to fight for that number one position for
- 32:00Speaker 1: ever and ever and ever. Actually, there is one thing
- 32:02Speaker 1: that keeps coming back to the podcast and making this
- 32:04Speaker 1: podcast happen, and and what we wouldn't be doing our
- 32:07Speaker 1: jobs if we didn't tell everybody out there about it.
- 32:10Speaker 1: Let's tell everybody about bioclarity. How about it? So let's
- 32:12Speaker 1: do it. Um, you guys know bioclarity. It's all it's
- 32:16Speaker 1: all natural, there's no harsh ingredients. It's got this stuff
- 32:20Speaker 1: called floor relux in it, which is actually derived from
- 32:23Speaker 1: the green stuff and plants, and it calms en sues
- 32:27Speaker 1: your skin. So it's going to get rid of all
- 32:29Speaker 1: that redness and irritation and of course in the acne
- 32:33Speaker 1: that nobody wants, nobody wants it. And and for everybody
- 32:37Speaker 1: out there listening, the skin care teen is is easy.
- 32:40Speaker 1: It's simple, but it has the maximum effects. What you
- 32:45Speaker 1: do is you cleanse, treat, restore clinically proven to fight acnes,
- 32:49Speaker 1: to skin reduced poor size, minimized redness, and even out
- 32:52Speaker 1: skin tone. It's best for that oily combination of blemish
- 32:56Speaker 1: prone skin. Actually, you've talked often about how oily your
- 32:59Speaker 1: skin is, and you like it because it's gonna make
- 33:01Speaker 1: you look younger, longer. I think that's what you say then,
- 33:04Speaker 1: And if I said that wrong, I apologize. I don't
- 33:06Speaker 1: mean defend you a beautiful skin. Actually, it's it's terrific exactly.
- 33:10Speaker 1: That is that's like a key thing. It's as people
- 33:14Speaker 1: who have oily skin, we are probably more breakout prone,
- 33:17Speaker 1: but also our skin like scientifically looks better really get older.
- 33:21Speaker 1: A bioclarity is good because it's for all skin types,
- 33:24Speaker 1: so that you're sensitive, you're not sensitive, you're acne prone,
- 33:27Speaker 1: or you're not. And there's two separate lines there's one
- 33:30Speaker 1: if you're a little bit more acney prone, and then
- 33:31Speaker 1: one if you just want to maintain clear, healthy, beautiful,
- 33:35Speaker 1: glowing skin. And then they also have this amazing moisturize
- 33:39Speaker 1: so that you can use in conjunction with the routines
- 33:42Speaker 1: or on the cut off alone. So as actually was mentioned,
- 33:44Speaker 1: the Clear Skin routine is best for oily acne prone skin.
- 33:48Speaker 1: Then the Essentials routine, which has the cleansed restore hydrate
- 33:52Speaker 1: method to it. It's best for normal, dry and dehydrated skin,
- 33:55Speaker 1: soft and skin with hydrate at lightweight reathable moisturizer helps
- 33:59Speaker 1: minimize red this reduced poor size and even out skin tone.

- 34:06Speaker 1: actually mentioned Flora lux four lucks, a clever form of
- 34:09Speaker 1: corphill has proven for soothing away blemishes. This this face uh,
- 34:13Speaker 1: this bio clarity product, it's like green juice for your face.

- 40:33Speaker 1: of her life. One are you dating anybody? Yeah? What's
- 40:39Speaker 1: going on down on death? But you guys are jumping
- 40:42Speaker 1: right into it. Uh yeah, I mean when I came home,
- 40:45Speaker 1: I dated casually, but I haven't like found the love
- 40:48Speaker 1: of my life yet. So will you'll be doing will
- 40:51Speaker 1: we be seeing you on Bachelor in Paradise? I'm not
- 40:56Speaker 1: doing it this season? Actually, how do we know that
- 40:58Speaker 1: you're not lying to us? Well, I mean, I guess
- 41:02Speaker 1: you'll find out soon. But I've kind of been saying,
- 41:05Speaker 1: like since the end of the Bachelor, like I was
- 41:08Speaker 1: not sure about doing Paradise. Um, you have a rocking pod.
- 41:13Speaker 1: We would love to see that on Paradise. I think
- 41:16Speaker 1: I'm a crave I think I think I'm afraid I
- 41:21Speaker 1: love it, Like, yeah, I need this every day. Uh
- 41:25Speaker 1: you know, Marie said, of all other factors, I would
- 41:28Speaker 1: love to see you on Paradise. It would be really
- 41:31Speaker 1: nice to see you from love on a show Uh
- 41:36Speaker 1: that has you know, brought a lot of couples together.
- 41:38Speaker 1: I'm now flustered because, um, okay, refocus here, make life
- 41:47Speaker 1: today for you. What does it look like? How has
- 41:49Speaker 1: it changed since the Bachelor? I mean I kind of
- 41:52Speaker 1: came home and went back to my normal life. I
- 41:55Speaker 1: mean have models since I was fifteen and I'm twenty
- 41:57Speaker 1: eight now, so I went back to modeling. Um. The
- 42:00Speaker 1: thing that I really have been liking post show is
- 42:03Speaker 1: the fact that I'm like able to reach more people
- 42:06Speaker 1: and just like kind of got this network of friends
- 42:09Speaker 1: and people that are like minded through the show. And
- 42:11Speaker 1: of course, like it's the friendships they made on the show,
- 42:14Speaker 1: so um, of course, like now I have, like, you know,
- 42:17Speaker 1: these new friends. But it's weird because I'm sure you
- 42:20Speaker 1: guys know this. Like it's weird because like you don't
- 42:22Speaker 1: know these people for that long, but then you guys
- 42:24Speaker 1: are just super close. Yeah, I see all the girls
- 42:27Speaker 1: still to this day, I'm like over it, but like
- 42:29Speaker 1: at this point honestly, but wait, sorry, what was that.
- 42:34Speaker 1: That's a great comment, Like I'm kidding, I said, I
- 42:37Speaker 1: understand completely when you're talking about the friendships that you
- 42:40Speaker 1: make from the show. I'm sick of my friends by
- 42:42Speaker 1: not at this point honestly, but until you I mean, yeah.
- 42:46Speaker 1: And the thing is, I live in Utah, so I
- 42:47Speaker 1: don't get to I mean, I see like hell a
- 42:49Speaker 1: lot because we live like twenty minutes away from each other.
- 42:51Speaker 1: But I don't get to see everyone else as often. So, um,
- 42:55Speaker 1: I'm not sick of them yet. But that's okay. Not
- 43:00Speaker 1: a lot has changed, but I mean I do. Yeah, Like,
- 43:03Speaker 1: I mean, I love having like, you know, like people
- 43:05Speaker 1: that I can talk to that are like minded and
- 43:08Speaker 1: you know, I went to the same stuff as me.
- 43:11Speaker 1: I mean, this is something I've always wondered. You made
- 43:13Speaker 1: it pretty far on our season, correct, I mean you
- 43:16Speaker 1: were there for how many weeks? Um? I think it
- 43:19Speaker 1: was like five or six weeks? Okay, So now if
- 43:22Speaker 1: you're there five or six weeks, do people stop you
- 43:26Speaker 1: and recognize you on the street? Yeah? Yeah, And I
- 43:29Speaker 1: love that. I love like like meeting new people and
- 43:31Speaker 1: kind of like that's kind of what I was meaning,
- 43:33Speaker 1: like when I can reach people. I just yeah, you
- 43:35Speaker 1: also have a restaurant with your mom, right, mm hmm, yeah,
- 43:39Speaker 1: and you still do that your mom? Yeah, I mean
- 43:44Speaker 1: she was on my like intro video. Um, because I'm
- 43:48Speaker 1: having a tiff with my mom right now. I just
- 43:50Speaker 1: wanted to, like, I have tipped with my mom constantly.
- 43:54Speaker 1: I mean working together is like and oh my god,
- 43:57Speaker 1: I can only imagine I moved across the country from
- 44:00Speaker 1: my mom and I'm still sick of her. Waters. I
- 44:05Speaker 1: love you. I wish you Tracy Waters in this podcast. Um,
- 44:10Speaker 1: mariek for you in your life today? What are your
