- 1:24special. I love our girls.

- 1:29It was just such an amazing time.
- 1:31We, you know, we had a close friend that lived in DC who let
- 1:35us use his house and it is just the most spectacular house in
- 1:38the entire world. He was so kind of house to us.
- 1:41And we just had women from across the country that came to
- 1:44support us and show up. And we were just so thankful.
- 1:46And it was like so great to meet you girls and get to know your

- 2:01people as well. And I love that so many girls at
- 2:04the party had like not even known each other before and then
- 2:07they got together at the party and then like they created like
- 2:09friendships from that party. And I just think that's such a
- 2:11beautiful thing. And I'm just so excited.
- 2:13Like I want to do more events like that because it was just
- 2:15amazing. Special shout out to our
- 2:17sponsors, our security team that helped us.
- 2:19Tax Network USA played a tremendous role in this as well.

- 2:26you're more conservative leaning like it's very scary in the I
- 2:29wanted to make sure that all of our girls that came to this
- 2:31event were well protected and Tom at Ironwood did such a
- 2:35fantastic job. If you guys are doing any events

- 2:47And also huge thank you to our husbands who, like you, go first
- 2:51with that. Oh, yeah, Pat did not sign up
- 2:53for manual labor. And I will say him and Drake
- 2:55carrying up all of the alcohol, all of like the things that we
- 2:59needed for the party, like talking to the caterers of where
- 3:02to put things. We're just, we're very, very
- 3:04grateful for. Them I called Drake and I'm
- 3:05like, you need to get over to the house right now and it was
- 3:07like 3 hours before the event and he was like running over and
- 3:10I got there and he's like sweating bullets carrying up
- 3:13like 50 things of champagne into the room.
- 3:15Like, they're so great to us. No, they are.
- 3:17We were running errands and we were in the car and yeah, Pat
- 3:21was like, you know, like questioning for a second, like,
- 3:23why am I here? But he, I needed his big arms,
- 3:26like carry all the stuff up. So no, it was fun.
- 3:28It was a good time. And I'm glad that they had like
- 3:30the behind the scenes of it because it really came to life.
- 3:32And there's a lot more that goes into it than people realize, so.
- 3:36Get a man that when you throw your little fun party with your
- 3:39girls will carry all of your champagne bottles in that
- 3:41morning you were running around all around town going to you
- 3:44were like buying whatever Virginia ABC because.
- 3:47We were at Virginia ABC. We were buying speakers for the
- 3:50DJ booth. Who's?
- 3:52Dan Crenshaw. Yeah, which is such a fun side
- 3:54quest. I mean, I guess when you're in
- 3:56politics, it does age you, you need, you need things that are
- 3:59fun, like little outlets to do. So he wanted to do that for
- 4:02free. And that's something that he
- 4:03does on the side and he loves doing.
- 4:05So we just, we let him do his thing.
- 4:07You know what was one of the highlights?
- 4:08Also my favorite priest, Father Frank Pavone.
- 4:12He literally flew in from Florida.
- 4:13He runs priest for life. He's like a very big pro-life
- 4:16advocate and he showed up like my favorite priest.
- 4:19He like walked in and I was like, hi father Frank Pavone.
- 4:22And he was there the entire night.
- 4:24I was just laughing like, like, it just was like, probably not
- 4:27his usual scene. And I just loved like we had so
- 4:29many people come in, but like I said, out of town as well.
- 4:31Well, we also had what was so funny is we had Kevin Cork from
- 4:34Fox News there. He was actually doing a panel
- 4:36with two of the guests at the event.
- 4:37So they had to leave our party in order to go back to the
- 4:40Bureau to do the hit. But it was Kevin Cork.
- 4:42We had David Brody there, who is with Real America's Voice.
- 4:45We had Julian Epstein on the panel as well.
- 4:47It was just, it was so special though that they were all able
- 4:49to come but then went back and you know, did what we do.
- 4:53I love. Kevin, he is the sweetest.
- 4:56Like we do so many panels of him at Fox and he's just honestly a
- 4:59doll. He also made my night.
- 5:00So we're just so thankful. And if you girls didn't get to
- 5:03go to this event, because I know, you know, there's a lot of
- 5:05stuff going on and everything, I think we're definitely going to
- 5:08host more and we would love to have you girls in the future
- 5:12anyway. OK, so to start out this
- 5:13episode, we want to thank you guys for the event and
- 5:16everything. And then we also wanted to do
- 5:18like a fun story time because Cameron and I, since this
- 5:20podcast has launched, we've been just on like so many side
- 5:23quests, doing all of these press hits and stuff.
- 5:25I literally feel like since we've launched this podcast,
- 5:27it's just been a fire hose of just events, press
- 5:30opportunities. Like we're so thankful.
- 5:32But like we've just been going crazy.
- 5:34Like not sleeping. Literally if you hear my voice
- 5:37too, I'm so sorry. I'm sick because of just like I
- 5:39have not slept in a week because we've just been non-stop doing
- 5:41things. And so anyway, I wanted to tell
- 5:44him a story of us going to New York City.
- 5:48Oh my God. And I think we have to start.
- 5:50So we drove up from DC to New York City.
- 5:53This was literally what was it Wednesday morning?
- 5:57Yeah, it was Wednesday. Are you sure?
- 5:58Yeah, cuz then we went on Fox on Thursday morning.
- 6:00So we had a hit on Fox and friends first, which we love.
- 6:04Todd Piro, he is the best. He had us on his show at like a
- 6:07Chris 5:30 AM in the morning and we'll get into that.
- 6:10So the day before we drove up. And mind you, we're coming from
- 6:14DC to in New York, so that should be a four hour car ride.
- 6:18If your tank is filled with gas, it should not take you very
- 6:22long. Maybe stop once if you need to
- 6:23use the restroom or get a snack. Jamie, we left at 10 AM.
- 6:28We got there what, at like 9:30 PM?
- 6:31Yeah, I don't even know how that that is.
- 6:35So Jamie in camcorder, it's a four hour trip and somehow ended
- 6:37up being 12 hours. Like I really can't even
- 6:40explain. Well, actually we can't explain
- 6:41well, but also so my husband that he filled one of our tires
- 6:46the day before because one of our tires is having an issue
- 6:48where he's driving his car. And for some reason mid road
- 6:51trip the tire began having another issue again.
- 6:53And instead of being like responsible adults, we're like,
- 6:55whatever, we're just going to drive on a flat tire which like.
- 6:58Yeah, cuz the pressure goes up like the hotter that the car
- 7:01gets. So then in my mind I was like,
- 7:03the problem will fix itself. We don't have to worry about it.
- 7:06We. Had that and like Vivi's toys in
- 7:07the back, we were like trailering up and so while we
- 7:12were on this trip, we left very early in the morning and like I
- 7:14said it was supposed to be only four hours so we thought like.
- 7:17We get there by 1:30. Yeah, we thought we'd be totally
- 7:19good on time and Cameron had a news hit on Real America's
- 7:23Voice. And if for those of you guys, I
- 7:25don't know, when you do a news hit, it's like so bad to
- 7:27reschedule the day of because like bookers are working so
- 7:30hard. Like it should literally only be
- 7:31an emergency to reschedule. So anyway, we're driving and
- 7:34Cameron goes, we're in the middle of New Jersey at this
- 7:37point and camera looks at me and goes, we are not going to make
- 7:40it before my 3:30 news hit on real America's voice.
- 7:43And I'm like, yeah, you're right.
- 7:46So like. Oh, and I had no makeup on and
- 7:48we left in pajamas. We literally ordered toastique
- 7:51at Jamie's house, A latte, avocado toast, got in the car,
- 7:55packed everything up and went as is.
- 7:57We were not dressed, we had no makeup on.
- 7:59And we also like hit CVS. We got like teeth whiteners and
- 8:02then spent like 2 hours. Oh.
- 8:03Yeah, POS system. We're running into every.
- 8:09I was so over stimulated when they kept saying like it's 100
- 8:15or what did they say $150.00 and I was like $150.00 for a teeth
- 8:19whitener and a charger come again and then she got to say
- 8:24$150.00. Then I realized she was saying
- 8:26like $105.50. I was like.
- 8:30What? Are you saying?
- 8:32So we're in the middle of New Jersey.
- 8:33Cameron has this news hit. And you were like, let's just go
- 8:37to a random hotel, like a Conference Center, and sneak in
- 8:41and see what happened. I was gaslighting the front
- 8:44desk. People basically, like waving at
- 8:46them like, oh, so good to see you again.
- 8:48I'm walking in with my suitcase, like with all my clothes, all my
- 8:52makeup, trying to get ready before this news hit.
- 8:54So we find like a random Holiday Inn Convention Center, and I
- 8:57don't even know where in New Jersey.
- 8:58We pull over, we go through. We're like, we're pretending
- 9:02that we're staying there. So we're like, thank you to the
- 9:04front desk. So great to see you again.
- 9:06And they were like waving to us. We walk through to the
- 9:08Convention Center and Cameron has to get ready.
- 9:10She has like not a stitch of makeup on.
- 9:11She's about to go on TV. So we go into like the random
- 9:15public bathroom in this Convention Center.
- 9:17Take up a stall here. We'll play the video.
- 9:19I literally recorded this. We took up the whole stall in
- 9:22this bathroom, like open up Cameron's suitcase.
- 9:24She started getting dressed and getting ready.
- 9:26And meanwhile, we're taking like work calls during this as well.
- 9:29And next door to this public bathroom was like another
- 9:32convention happening. I think it was like the
- 9:34comptroller's of New Jersey or something.
- 9:36It was like a really random convention and people were like
- 9:38filtering through the bathroom and Cameron's like getting
- 9:41already in this bathroom. And I'm like, OK, we need to
- 9:44find like a private place for her to do a new set.
- 9:46She's literally about to be on live TV, you guys.
- 9:48So I'm running around this Convention Center looking for
- 9:51like any private room. I find like this random janitor
- 9:55closet and I bring Cameron through it and she's like Jamie,
- 9:57there is no way I'm doing this hit in this janitor.
- 10:00There was kitchen utensils on the floor.
- 10:02There's like rags in the corner. And she was like, you can just
- 10:06squat and put your computer there with your ring light.
- 10:08And I'm like, how am I going to blur out, oh, this entire mess
- 10:11in the background of this closet that's not even there was no
- 10:14light in there, nothing to go off as.
- 10:16I was like, Jamie, we have to find somewhere else to do this.
- 10:18So I go down the hallway and I find like one open auditorium
- 10:22that was like somehow open like because every other door was
- 10:25locked in this Convention Center.
- 10:27And so we're like, thank God. So we go into this auditorium
- 10:30and I literally joked to Cameron, I'm like, this
- 10:32literally looks like an auditorium from like the office,
- 10:34you know, like Dunder Mifflin, like Scranton, PA, like having
- 10:37like literally a marketing event for like the shareholder revenue
- 10:41at their paper meeting, like they.
- 10:42Had a podium. They had notepads.
- 10:45Oh yeah, it looked like a lecture hall that you were going
- 10:47to in college. This one like brought me back
- 10:49to, I wasn't even alive at the time, but like 1995.
- 10:51I feel like this is what like life looked like back then.
- 10:54And I'm like, OK, Cameron, set up your news hit in this random
- 10:57auditorium. I'm going to go out and patrol
- 10:59like the outside area to make sure no one walks in while she's
- 11:02on literal live TV. So Cameron like sets up her ring
- 11:05light like she's all ready to go and I go outside and I'm sitting
- 11:08there and I'm just waiting. And it like usually when you're
- 11:11doing live TV, you have to wait. Like the timing is sometimes
- 11:13like all over the place. So I'm waiting out there for
- 11:16like 15 minutes. I don't hear her talking.
- 11:17And then I hear her start talking like she's doing her
- 11:19news hit. And I'm like, OK, good.
- 11:22This will take like about 5 minutes.
- 11:23Usually every hit it's about 5 minutes.
- 11:24So I see this guy walking over with his keys and I'm like, Oh
- 11:29my God, not this room, not this room.
- 11:30I'm just watching him do it. He then comes over and is about
- 11:34to unlock the door that Cameron's in.
- 11:36And like, literally that door is facing like it will like the
- 11:39door will come open on live TV and he'll be like, what are you
- 11:42doing in this room? Like you don't, you don't even
- 11:44belong here. This is supposed to be like a
- 11:45locked room. And so as he's about to unlock
- 11:48the door, this is the first thing that comes to mind.
- 11:50I run over and I go, Sir, Sir, Sir, you can't open that.
- 11:54And he looks at me and he's like, I'm sorry, Like, who are
- 11:56you like his vibe? And I'm go, my best friend.
- 11:58I had an accident and he looks, I mean, and I'm like she's
- 12:06changing in there and there's like a girl that's right behind.
- 12:09I think they're doing like a tour of the facility.
- 12:11And I look and I go like this with the note card to the girl
- 12:13and like she got her period and she has to change.
- 12:16And the guy like yoursy and he's so disgusted.
- 12:19His face like he's like this is literally the only thing I could
- 12:21think of to stop this man from entering this room.
- 12:23Mind you, I hear this on live television.
- 12:26I hear this going. The door is right there.
- 12:28So I'm sitting on live television, like, yeah.
- 12:30And da, da, da, da, da with the IRS, like what's going on out
- 12:34there? This guy is like so disgusted.
- 12:35He looks at me, he's like, and you can tell he's like, I want
- 12:38nothing to do with this. He's like, we'll go tour the
- 12:41room next door. I'm like, thank you so much.
- 12:43It'll be 5 minutes. Of course, Cameron's hit
- 12:45continues to go on for like another 7 minutes.
- 12:48I'm saying they're so anxious because I see them going room to
- 12:50room and they're trying to get back into that room.
- 12:52I'm like standing there like and they come back over right as
- 12:56they were coming back and I had to be like, I, I don't even know
- 12:58what my excuse at this point. Cameron comes out of the room.
- 13:01I was about to laugh so hard. I literally ran and the look
- 13:04that they gave Cameron, like they were just like looking at
- 13:07you like. They were, so they were.
- 13:09Repulsed, they really were. So disgusted.
- 13:12With me, Karen goes out with her full suitcase and everything and
- 13:15we just flee. We flee the sea.
- 13:17And mind you, there's like three other doors in there too.
- 13:20And we locked every door. Jamie, of course, wrote.
- 13:23Kim and Jamie were here on a notepad somewhere that is still
- 13:26there. I'm like, oh, we left the
- 13:27notepad in there, but ultimately we fled.
- 13:30We got to new. York we fled and then we went up
- 13:33to New York and then we did not sleep that night because then we
- 13:35did Fox app like 5:30 AM and then we continued not to sleep
- 13:38and just like did Tik Toks and like went all over the city and
- 13:41then we drove back and then we had our party.
- 13:43So that was our last like literally like 3 days.
- 13:45So Speaking of New York City, OK, so it's about to be
- 13:48Halloween as you guys are well aware.
- 13:50So we wanted to get into like a little bit of a Halloween topic
- 13:54here for you all. And this guy is in New York City
- 13:57and let's play this TikTok. So for a listening audience, he
- 14:01said, can I be in New York City for more than 5 minutes without
- 14:05being asked what my Halloween plans are?
- 14:07And then let's play this other TikTok here as well on a similar
- 14:10vibe. And it says, what are you doing
- 14:13for Halloween? I'm staying in fully dressed,
- 14:15handing out candy because Halloween is for SLUTS and I'm
- 14:19better than that. I do think adults will put an
- 14:23overemphasis on Halloween. Sometimes I think it's fun to
- 14:26celebrate, of course. Like, I love celebrations with
- 14:28your friends. I know you have Vivi so you
- 14:30probably love taking her to trick or treat getting her
- 14:32outfit, but I kind of agree. Like once you reach a certain
- 14:36age, it shouldn't become a part of your identity anymore.
- 14:39Yeah, I think this is kind of part of like the Peter Pan
- 14:41syndrome in our society now because like, so many people are
- 14:44not having kids in their 20s that the pressure, I guess, to
- 14:48get dressed up for Halloween still is like a 27 year old is
- 14:51kind of crazy to me because like, I don't know, in my world,
- 14:54like I don't even have time to like, think of my Halloween
- 14:56costume or my husbands Halloween costume.
- 14:58Like we're so focused on Vivian, our daughter.
- 15:00And please, can we put up a picture of her?
- 15:02She looks so precious this Halloween.
- 15:04Oh my gosh, we went, we did like an early little trick or
- 15:07treating thing the other day and it was so cute.
- 15:09Our little Dorothy, she's so precious.
- 15:11But anyway, I do feel like Halloween is for children.
- 15:14So for me, this is like crazy about how people like nowadays
- 15:18because no one's having kids like put just so much pressure
- 15:20into their Halloween costumes. And I have seen like a lot of
- 15:25debate on TikTok about like women's costumes for Halloween
- 15:29because we all know that infamous meme girls quote where
- 15:32she's like, Halloween is the one time of year that you can dress
- 15:34up and be an SLU UTS without being judged for it.
- 15:39And So what do you think about that?
- 15:41I mean, I think it just depends on how you're approaching this.
- 15:44Like what intention are you going with?
- 15:46Are you going with the intention of like showing off your body
- 15:49and dressing like that? Are you going with the intention
- 15:51of like having fun with your friends?
- 15:53Because I also see on my TikTok, maybe I'm on a completely
- 15:56different side of social media, but I'll see like girls dressing
- 15:59up as The Lorax guy with like the orange suit with like the
- 16:04beard and then like founding fathers and stuff.
- 16:07So I think it can be fun with your friends.
- 16:09It just depends on what you're doing with your intentions and
- 16:12everything. But again, I feel like it's more
- 16:15of like a children's holiday like you were saying.
- 16:18Yeah. And like, I think Halloween is
- 16:19so fun when you're in college to dress up.
- 16:21Like I had some great costumes back in college.
- 16:23But truthfully, I think since I've had Vivian, like I said, I
- 16:26just haven't like had the time because like, I do want to make
- 16:29Halloween about her. I do think it's like for kids
- 16:31first. And another really weird trend
- 16:33that's like on a similar vein to Halloween is OK.
- 16:36So Long story short, in my town, we dressed up Vivian yesterday.
- 16:39It was a Saturday that had this big trick or treat event.
- 16:42And we went around all over the place and we're trick or
- 16:45treating and there was a bunch of kids out as like a lot of
- 16:47people do in every town in America.
- 16:50And it was so much fun. And it was adorable to see young
- 16:52families. Vivian was having so much fun.
- 16:54She was running around with all of the kids and all the costumes
- 16:56were adorable as we saw Vivian's.
- 16:58And I was like, oh, this is really amazing.
- 17:00And then today I've been driving all around DC and I guess there
- 17:05was events for like dressing up your dog and bringing your dog
- 17:09around. And this was very strange to me.
- 17:11There was like a bunch of millennials who were like
- 17:14dressed up in full Halloween. I'm talk, I'm talking like face
- 17:17paint going full thing with their dogs dressed up as well.
- 17:21And they were bringing them around to different stores in DC
- 17:24and like right outside of her studio.
- 17:26Actually, they had another dog event where like people were
- 17:29dressed up with their dogs as well.
- 17:30And I'm like, I don't know, I don't mean to be mean.
- 17:33I'm a dog person. I love our family dog, I've
- 17:36always been a dog lover my entire life, but I do feel like
- 17:39this is a weird trend that's developing.
- 17:41Well, I think that adults have replaced children with dogs.
- 17:45And I live in LA. I've seen this first hand with
- 17:47people walking their strollers. And I'm like, looking to see if
- 17:50there's a cute baby in there and it's a dog.
- 17:53And they just put an overemphasis on animals.
- 17:55And I'm an animal lover as well. But again, I do think that this
- 17:58should be mostly about kids. And I mean, what were you even
- 18:02saying with this festival? It's like mostly millennials out
- 18:05there. And what were you saying?
- 18:06Yeah, it was mostly millennial people and, you know, they don't
- 18:08have kids because I'm sorry, anyone that has a child does not
- 18:11have time to just bring out their dog and like go trick or
- 18:13treating for biscuits. Like that's just so.
- 18:15And by the way, even if you don't have kids, you don't have
- 18:18anything better to do than dress up your dog and bring.
- 18:20It's literally people that are longing to have children in a
- 18:23way, but they don't want the full commitment of having a kid,
- 18:25so they replace them with dogs. Like I think that's a very
- 18:27obvious thing that's happening on like multiple levels.
- 18:30And this is now showing. But I'm like, you're spending
- 18:32money on your dog outfit. And by the way, I think I saw a
- 18:35few families the other day where they had like their kids dressed
- 18:38up and the dog like played into it and they brought their dog
- 18:40along and we're dressing up like with the family and stuff.
- 18:42I think that's cute. But to specifically spend your
- 18:44Sunday afternoon like walking around with your dog in a
- 18:47Halloween costume, I do think it's kind of weird.
- 18:49It's giving a bit Disney adult like same type of vibe to me.
- 18:53I agree. OK, so now going on to a
- 18:55completely different topic. We're going to the I Have No
- 18:59Words segment. We're totally changing gears
- 19:03here, but we need to talk about this Louvre heist.
- 19:07This was insane, you guys. I was dying.
- 19:10Let's roll the clip. Am IA bad person for thinking
- 19:13the Louvre heist was kind of one of the most inspiring things to
- 19:18happen within my lifetime. Like in this day and age of AI
- 19:22and the row boats are here, it's just kind of wonderful to see a
- 19:27good old fashioned heist, I tell you.
- 19:30OK, so for those of you guys that don't know, these men
- 19:33dressed up as construction workers and broke into the
- 19:36Louvre, which is obviously like the most famous museum in the
- 19:40entire world in Paris, France. And in the middle of the day,
- 19:43they went over to the crown jewels and opened up with like a
- 19:47blowtorch, I think or something and stole the crown jewels,
- 19:51exited the building and got away on scooters and no one batted a
- 19:54single eye. This is insane.
- 19:57Well, they got on this conveyor belt or like this construction
- 20:00thing. That goes down.
- 20:01It was so slow. You guys, let's roll the clip.
- 20:04If you're seeing here, it goes so slow all the way down to the
- 20:08ground. And then I think they fled the
- 20:09scene with like a scooter or something.
- 20:11But this just goes to show that there are some jobs that AI
- 20:14can't replace. I was like saying I'm like this
- 20:19is literally a cartoon ass crime.
- 20:21Like I started about like how is this real life?
- 20:23Like I feel like this is in like some stupid cartoon that you
- 20:26literally just like walked into the Louvre and stole like
- 20:28France's crown jewels. Like I will tell you guys right
- 20:31now my CVS has deodorant locked up tighter than these crown
- 20:35jewels. I can't even break into the CVS
- 20:38and get anything while I'm trying to buy with my credit
- 20:40card. I have to call over the employee
- 20:41to unlock all those glass things because we live in a society now
- 20:45where everyone steals anything. So we're locking up deodorant
- 20:47and toothpaste, but the crown jewels, I guess you can just
- 20:50like basically crack open up the container and exit in real time.
- 20:54Yeah, I'm on French TikTok right now.
- 20:56And our generation is so unserious across the board.
- 20:59People have been filming these videos in front of the Louvre
- 21:01saying, oh, you know, here's what I brought back from the
- 21:04Louvre today. And they're, like, taking out
- 21:06rings, taking out, like, beautiful necklaces, like making
- 21:09fun of how they were able to just grab them so quickly.
- 21:12Where was security and all of this?
- 21:14Like, they do not run a tight ship over there.
- 21:16I can't take the seriously on top of me sending a bunch of tik
- 21:19toks to Jamie last night about them romanticizing this heist.
- 21:23Let's roll this clip as well. We're romanticizing.
- 21:36The loop heist. That's where we are because I
- 21:39think like in some ways this is like an Ocean's 11 or national
- 21:44treasure. We're stealing the Declaration
- 21:46of Independence and there's just been like with Charlie Kirk and
- 21:49just so many like horrific crimes like we've had to view
- 21:52over the last few years. I think that this is almost like
- 21:55it's not funny. It really isn't.
- 21:56It's really actually, I like love history.
- 21:58It makes me really sad when like people go and desecrate like any
- 22:01of our art or like our historical buildings and stuff.
- 22:04But at the same time, this is like, I think giving like a bit
- 22:07more light to just the horrific things that we've been through.
- 22:10And it's like a movie. Yeah, it's a white collar crime
- 22:13where they went in there. They did it with their two bare
- 22:15hands. By the way, they weren't wearing
- 22:17gloves. So that's how they were able to
- 22:18detect these guys, I'm pretty sure by the DNA test.
- 22:21But that's why I've seen so many videos saying that like we have
- 22:24more respect for this. If you go into like a Nike store
- 22:26and you're breaking through the glass for like like you whole
- 22:29against. But they went into the Louvre
- 22:32with like no thought out plan whatsoever.
- 22:34Just we're able to go up this conveyor belt.
- 22:37I don't know where they entered the scene, going in there,
- 22:40opening up with a blowtorch or whatever they use, grabbing
- 22:43these drools coming back down. You're right, it's like a
- 22:46cartoon almost. Yeah, I mean, I can't wait to
- 22:48see the Netflix documentary of this.
- 22:50I'm sure I'll be coming. I.
- 22:51Love living through historical events like this.
- 22:53We're living through a historical time, I will say
- 22:55that. The world was spinning before
- 22:57the heist, and the world will keep spinning after the heist.
- 23:00OK, you guys, we're going to switch total gears now and get
- 23:03into our non-toxic advice where you guys write in your questions
- 23:07every week and we love to hear from you.
- 23:09I say this every single week, but you guys write the best
- 23:11questions. And so if you have not written a
- 23:13question yet or if you want to write another one, make sure
- 23:15that you go to sincerelyamerican.com/askaquestion.
- 23:23OK, let's get into it. So our first question comes from
- 23:26a guy. I think this is the first time
- 23:27we've had a guy ask a question on the podcast that we featured.
- 23:30And we love that. We encourage our men to watch as
- 23:32well and write in. And so this is Jason from
- 23:34Wisconsin, and he's saying many young conservative men aren't
- 23:37entirely sure how to best attract young conservative
- 23:41women. In fact, often times they will
- 23:43resort to giving one another not so great advice on the matter.
- 23:47What would you 2 provide for some pointers?
- 23:50I would honestly just say just making sure that you're a God
- 23:53centered man and also women pay attention to the smallest
- 23:57things, the smallest details and that does pile up over time.
- 24:01So making sure you're making her life easier.
- 24:03Obviously respect for people around you, like the wait staff,
- 24:06people who are opening the door for you.
- 24:08Just treating people around you with respect because ultimately
- 24:11that's going to reflect upon her and she's going to be thinking,
- 24:14is he going to be treating me with the same respect?
- 24:16I always say this as well. And Charlie Kirk also said this
- 24:19to you can tell a lot about somebody by the way you travel
- 24:22with them. And if it's easy, because it's
- 24:25going to be, you know, flights are delayed, Uber drivers are
- 24:29rushing through traffic. And if you are able to keep a
- 24:32calm temperament and be stoic in your emotions and just making
- 24:36sure that you're able to get us from point A to point B, it's
- 24:39going to tell a lot about, one, how you're going to treat her.
- 24:42Two, how you handle a crisis like that?
- 24:45And three, I just think it just goes into the bigger picture of
- 24:49women do take mental note of these smaller things that do
- 24:52become bigger over time. You're so right.
- 24:54Women do pick up on a lot of details that guys might not.
- 24:57So I think this is my piece of advice.
- 24:58One, become the best man you possibly can be because then
- 25:01you'll attract the best woman that you can.
- 25:03And so for me, that first starts out with get in shape and look
- 25:06the best you can. I'm sorry, that's a small thing,
- 25:08but you're going to attract more people if you get in shape and
- 25:10you're looking good. Second, I would say really get
- 25:13your job and your career in order.
- 25:15Women are looking for providers. We want that.
- 25:18We want to be taken care of. I'm not saying you have to
- 25:20become a millionaire, but I think it's very attractive for
- 25:23young woman to look at a man and know that he is a hard worker
- 25:26and that he's going to work super hard for their future
- 25:28family one day. And he's looking to have that
- 25:30provider mindset and is established in his career.
- 25:34And I would say this as well, for a lot of women, I think
- 25:37sometimes we can get emotional and dramatic about stuff.
- 25:39We want problem solvers in our life.
- 25:41I love a man that can solve problems and is stoic throughout
- 25:44any type of craziness that's going on.
- 25:47And so I think you don't having that mentality and being able
- 25:50to, you know, help out a woman and show that you can solve
- 25:53problems in her life is a really underappreciated thing.
- 25:56And then also, I think, you know, going to church is a great
- 25:59place to meet young women as well.
- 26:00I know in this day and age, it's like super hard to meet people
- 26:02genuinely like now like guys are scared at work if they're going
- 26:06to look creepy or whatever. And do not be scared.
- 26:08A lot of women do like confident men.
- 26:10So if you find a woman attractive, attractive, like I
- 26:12wouldn't be like over the top and like creepy towards her, but
- 26:15don't be afraid to approach her and ask her for her number and
- 26:18bring her on a date. And this is also another thing
- 26:20that is controversial to say, but pay on the first date.
- 26:24Men woman love that. And if you are especially having
- 26:27a conservative woman, she will reciprocate in that way.
- 26:30And it is good to fall into those traditional gender norms.
- 26:33I think that's really important. Delete Snapchat, delete the
- 26:36dating app, start meeting people in person.
- 26:38It shows that you're sociable, you're able to navigate social
- 26:40situations and be more are outgoing.
- 26:42Like Jamie noted that you're presenting yourself in the type
- 26:45of way where you're going to attract a high value woman by
- 26:48your work ethic, by the way that you treat your body, your diet,
- 26:51your workout routine, staying disciplined.
- 26:53You in turn will attract a high value woman when you're doing
- 26:56those things. And pursue that woman too.
- 26:58If you find a woman that you love having conversation with
- 27:00and you just think she's great, pursue her.
- 27:03Stop with this situation ship BS.
- 27:05I'm so sick of people being like they're dating for six months
- 27:09and they can't even put AI had that happen to me, by the way,
- 27:11at the party where I guess I like ask somebody like, Oh, how
- 27:14long have you guys been dating? And they were like, and I could
- 27:16tell it was a situation ship you guys and I'm like, can we stop
- 27:19with this culture? If you like a girl, tell her
- 27:21that you like her and become boyfriend and girlfriend and get
- 27:24dating. Life is short and stop with this
- 27:27like crazy culture where you're talking to all these different
- 27:30people. If you like a girl, pursue her.
- 27:31A lot of women actually do like that.
- 27:33We did talk about that on the last episode.
- 27:34It is good to do. A little hard to get at the
- 27:36beginning there, but once you decide she's the one, pursue her
- 27:39and go for it and make that happen.
- 27:41OK, now we're kind of going actually on the flip side, which
- 27:44I like. So Paige from Rhode Island wrote
- 27:47in and said, as a newly engaged woman, how can I start preparing
- 27:50myself spiritually, emotionally and practically to be a Good
- 27:53Wife and build a strong foundation for marriage?
- 27:56I love this question because it goes back to what I say to you
- 28:00all the time. You are who you surround
- 28:01yourself with at the end of the day.
- 28:03There's many biblical references to actually cite.
- 28:07Iron sharpens iron as one man sharpens another.
- 28:09Bad company corrupts good character.
- 28:11And so it's important to be intentional of who you give your
- 28:14time to, who you're sitting with, what you're consuming,
- 28:17what type of and that goes for not just food, but also the type
- 28:21of content that you consume. If you're constantly consuming
- 28:24this negative content, you in turn and subconsciously that
- 28:27will sit in your brain and you will become a negative person.
- 28:30So being intentional about these sort of things because you are
- 28:33who you surround yourself with and you are what you consume and
- 28:37being more mindful for that in the future.
- 28:39Embracing, you know, what a man also wants in a woman.
- 28:42In this day and age, we can talk about what woman want in men all
- 28:45the time, but it's almost taboo to talk about that.
- 28:47But it is true, there are traditional gender roles that
- 28:50you should be falling within. Marriage is a team sport.
- 28:53You need to work together. It's not, you know, a tally off
- 28:56system, I'm doing this versus I'm doing this.
- 28:59But you should be thinking not about yourself anymore, about a
- 29:02team. And So what can you do to better
- 29:05off this team? And I think building that
- 29:07foundation where you're looking to the other person and how can
- 29:10I help their life and how can I make this man the best version
- 29:12of himself? And your husband should be
- 29:14looking in return to make you the best version of yourself.
- 29:17And I would say also, you know, getting into church and
- 29:20establishing that routine with your family, going every Sunday,
- 29:22I think goes a huge distance. And I will also say this too, I
- 29:26think owning that time of engagement where it's so fun and
- 29:29it's just the two of you is fantastic.
- 29:31And you know, going out on dates and even though you guys are
- 29:34getting married and stuff, still making that date night very
- 29:36special, I think is really important, especially before you
- 29:39have kids. And I would also make sure too,
- 29:41to get onto the same page about when you guys are wanting to
- 29:43have kids, you know, where you're looking to live and
- 29:45really start, you know, thinking about your future forward and
- 29:48where you want to be in the next 5-10, fifteen, 20 years, I think
- 29:52is really important in relationships, whether that be
- 29:54with your career, whether that be with your family, where
- 29:57you're living, with your extended family.
- 29:58I think it's good to make sure you guys are all on the same
- 30:00page before obviously making that covenant before God.
- 30:03Just going off of what you just said, men want peace.
- 30:06They want to be able to come home from the chaos of work and
- 30:09have a home that is, that is made, that is clean.
- 30:12Like Jamie noted, dinner on the table.
- 30:14But I would also tell you this as well, make sure that you're
- 30:17catering to his love languages because maybe what your love
- 30:20language is maybe like words of affirmation or gift giving or
- 30:23whatever, may not be his love language.
- 30:25It may be acts of service or something.
- 30:26So making sure that you're in agreement with what they expect
- 30:29out of you and having those standards and expectations and
- 30:32and communicating those effectively with one another is
- 30:35really going to change the game. Marriage is beautiful.
- 30:37We talk nonstop about how amazing marriage is, but it also
- 30:40is challenging as anything that's worth doing.
- 30:43Congratulations, I'm so excited for you.
- 30:45This is such an exciting part of life that you're headed into,
- 30:48and I just think it's amazing. We should continue to encourage
- 30:51that. Also, one more thing I will say,
- 30:53pray about it too, because God, if you're asking Him to give you
- 30:56that heart pressure of being a better spouse and being a better
- 31:00partner, not just the best person that you can be, but for
- 31:02that person, for your future family as well, He will always
- 31:05deliver on that. Our last question today, this is
- 31:08from BIA from Alabama. Other than Jesus, who inspires
- 31:11you to be a better woman in person?
- 31:13Thank you and keep up the beautiful work.
- 31:15Thank you. I would honestly say the people
- 31:17that I surround myself with, my best friends, Jamie and Bryson,
- 31:20if I'm ever in a crisis or there's ever something going on
- 31:23and maybe I'm a little bit too emotional at times.
- 31:26They are my rock and my fortress through that.
- 31:29And I don't have yes friends because I think a lot of people
- 31:32surround themselves with yes people who may just cosign on
- 31:36your poor behavior. And to me, that's not a real
- 31:38friendship. I want people around me who want
- 31:40to see me be the best version of myself, the best person, the
- 31:44best wife, the best future mom. And having that alignment with
- 31:47your friend group is so important.
- 31:49And I will say I'm very, very blessed.
- 31:51I asked God very early on when I first moved to DC from
- 31:55Lexington. And I won't say this for the
- 31:56entire group. I, I met some really, really
- 31:58great girls in Lexington, but one thing that I prayed for
- 32:01nonstop was good friends. God, I pray that I have good
- 32:05friends. I want good people in my life
- 32:07that I can count on and rely on. My friends Jamie and Bryson do
- 32:10carry me through a lot of things.
- 32:12And I will say shout out to my little sister Brooklyn.
- 32:15She's 13 years old. She also pushes me to be the
- 32:17best version of myself. I don't have kids yet and so I
- 32:20do want to be the best example for her as a girl when she's
- 32:23growing up. She's obviously entering like
- 32:26her teenage high school years and will go off to college and
- 32:28she does watch everything that I do.
- 32:31We've always talked about that you want to surround yourself
- 32:33with friends that make you better and that is totally you
- 32:35And Bryson and Isabel, like you guys are all just beautiful,
- 32:39ambitious woman who like really challenged me every day and I
- 32:42never want to be like the best out of my friends and said, I
- 32:44want like people that I strive to and that can improve me in
- 32:47certain ways. And I would also say that
- 32:49personally about my family, like becoming a mom, you know, you
- 32:52just have every decision you make has so much more
- 32:54significance. And that's what why I totally
- 32:58courage getting married and having children because you will
- 33:00become a better version of yourself, you guys.
- 33:02And so my husband challenges me every single day to be a better
- 33:05version of myself, my daughter. Now everything I do, I look and
- 33:08I'm like, is this going to make my daughter proud one day?
- 33:11And then I also have to give a big shout out to my dad.
- 33:13Like my dad truly is just the most phenomenal role model in my
- 33:17entire life. I can go to him with anything.
- 33:19I just love him. And he's helped me with my
- 33:21business. He's helped me with marriage,
- 33:23he's helped me with motherhood. He's helped me with school, with
- 33:26lacrosse when I used to play school, of course, and every
- 33:28season of life. My dad's been there and has
- 33:30given me incredible guidance. And I also love my mom in that
- 33:33way too, that she's always just been.
- 33:35I love what you said about being an honest person.
- 33:37You need to surround yourself with people who are not afraid
- 33:40to criticize your decisions at times.
- 33:42Honest people are going to make you better.
- 33:45Surround yourself with good people in your life.
- 33:46Marry a good man and you know, have good mentors and you know,
- 33:49you can't always control who your family is, but within your
- 33:52family, I would take a good look, whether that be a father
- 33:54figure, a grandfather, a mother, a grandmother or an aunt or an
- 33:58uncle or a cousin or whoever that is.
- 34:00Make sure you have good mentors in your life that you can bottle
- 34:03your life after. All right, you guys headed into
- 34:05our next segment, Hot or Not, where we're going to get fun.
- 34:10Where we're going to get. Fun where we're going to get fun
- 34:13we're. Going to get down.
- 34:14Okay, so Cameron, fake lashes. I'm going to go with not.
- 34:20I used to get the false lashes that were applied to and you
- 34:23would have to go get them filled in every two weeks by like a
- 34:25lash technician and it honestly covered my eyes too much.
- 34:29I think it depends on your eyes shape, but for me like I have
- 34:33very blue eyes, I have almond eyes so they're kind of smaller
- 34:36and the lashes overpower my look and it gives me a more harsher
- 34:40look. So I'm going to go with not
- 34:42personally for me. I think that's also, I feel like
- 34:44Cameron and I, we can get into this like later too and like
- 34:47more episodes, but we've definitely like developed our
- 34:50makeup look. And that's part of growing up in
- 34:51your 20s where you like really learn what looks good on you and
- 34:53what doesn't. Certain things can look good on
- 34:55someone and not look good on you and vice versa.
- 34:58I'm going to go hot. I love some fake washes.
- 35:00I think I don't like like a full strip class.
- 35:02I just like the little PC ones to have like more of a natural
- 35:06like wisp. I think it really adds something
- 35:08to your eyes. I wear falsies all the time.
- 35:10I'm a huge fan of it. But I think you're right.
- 35:12I do not like the those lashes that they apply like the semi
- 35:15permanent ones. We have to get them refilled.
- 35:17I almost never think those look very good if I'm being honest.
- 35:20So think if you're going to do it, go to the drugstore and get
- 35:22those. Like I said, the little wispy
- 35:23ones I think look much better and much more natural.
- 35:26This one I cannot believe Cameron added this to our thing
- 35:30like this is insane. This skims Bush thongs and we're
- 35:34going to put that up if you guys haven't seen this went viral I.
- 35:37Want to know who is buying these and why they are sold out and I
- 35:40would like to personally have them sit right here and explain
- 35:44to me why they bought that. Wait, they're sold out?
- 35:47Yes, I'm pretty sure. They're.
- 35:48I thought this was like a press gimmick.
- 35:50No, someone's actually buying that.
- 35:51Yeah. Why you guys like, are are we a
- 35:55weirdo society? This like sometimes things give
- 35:57me hope. This does not give me hope in
- 35:59society. Maybe this is because so many
- 36:01people have gotten like laser treatments and now they're like
- 36:04regretting their laser treatment.
- 36:06I don't know why maybe. They're trying to sport out a
- 36:08new look. I have no idea.
- 36:09We're we're going to go not with this one.
- 36:11I'm going to speak for Jamie on this.
- 36:12This is not and. Where are you wearing this you
- 36:15guys? Like if you're wearing like
- 36:16leggings, like like EW, EW, EW, OK, I'm like moving on to the
- 36:23next thing. I so not for me.
- 36:25I I don't even have we. Hadn't mentioned it though.
- 36:27It's viral right now and I'm like, well, why are they sold
- 36:30out? Because it's so outrageous.
- 36:31Like who is wearing well? It's kind of like on brand for
- 36:34her because of the nipple bra. I'm also like, where are you
- 36:37wearing that too? Because I wouldn't want to draw
- 36:39attention in that way. The nipple is kind of fun.
- 36:43I don't know, it was kind of like different and fun, but like
- 36:45this went too. Far like where would you wear
- 36:46that? I I don't know.
- 36:48Where are you wearing these things?
- 36:49Or is it, like, in the comfort of your own home and like, you
- 36:52want to strut around? Is this your Halloween cost?
- 36:56Yeah. I don't even know where I was
- 36:57like that, but that that was outrageous.
- 36:59But this is even more you. I I swear to God that I we talk
- 37:03about this every episode, the kardashification of society
- 37:05where you just do anything to be like extremely outrageous just
- 37:08to. Get a click from an Indian bot.
- 37:11Said it once, I'll say it. Again, Yeah.
- 37:12So we're not recommending that for you guys.
- 37:14OK, this one's controversial arena.
- 37:18I'm going to go with not, but then let me explain.
- 37:21I'm going to go not with prenups just because I don't think you
- 37:25should be getting married to that person if you don't 100%
- 37:28trust them. Now on the flip side of this, I
- 37:30understand that there is the saying the same person you
- 37:33divorce is not the same person who you originally married.
- 37:36So I understand that it is circumstantial and it does
- 37:39depend on your dynamic. If you are two highly successful
- 37:42people, let's say like you both come from money and there
- 37:46there's a lot of estates that are involved involved in this.
- 37:48I do understand that. However, I do think it's
- 37:52circumstantial. For me personally, I would have
- 37:54never gotten married to my husband if there was like a
- 37:57prenup involved. We're both 2 successful people.
- 38:00But ultimately it is that trust that is the foundation.
- 38:03If you don't have that trust, then what foundation can your
- 38:06relationship stand on? I mean, this might be the
- 38:08Catholic in me, but I'm just so against divorce that like, I
- 38:12think if you have a prenup before marriage, I do understand
- 38:15why people do it. But for me, if you have a prenup
- 38:17before marriage, it's almost setting the stage for divorce.
- 38:20Like it it, what marriage is supposed to be is a covenant
- 38:23under the Lord that is not broken under any circumstances.
- 38:27You fight through everything together.
- 38:29And this is kind of giving like, I guess, you know, an exit
- 38:33option. And I don't think that that's
- 38:35strong for building a marriage on that.
- 38:36And you know, I, I do understand to, I, I do, I can wrap my head
- 38:41around if you're getting married later in life and like I said,
- 38:43you're a billionaire and all this type of stuff, but still,
- 38:45I, I don't think you should be marrying that person if you
- 38:47don't foresee that this is going to last till the end of time.
- 38:50And I do think that this is a huge part of our divorce culture
- 38:53that's occurring nowadays. People just throw out marriage
- 38:56so easily and because they have these exit options.
- 38:59And so heading into marriage, you should view that that this
- 39:02is my partner for life. This is who I go to heaven with.
- 39:05And I'm, I'm just on a fan. I think it's a shaky foundation
- 39:09to build a marriage on and there should be no backup plan.
- 39:11OK, next one is micro shorts. OK, I'm going to go with hot on
- 39:16this one. Like for the younger girls.
- 39:17I think it is so cute. I want to throw up a picture of
- 39:20Paige Lorenz wearing a pair of I think it was me me micro shorts.
- 39:24It looks good with her figure. I personally could never pull
- 39:27this off just because of like I have more of an athletic build
- 39:30and I wouldn't want anything hanging out from the back.
- 39:34So. But yeah, I wouldn't want
- 39:37anything hanging out, but I do think it's cute.
- 39:40I'm going to go with hot personally though probably could
- 39:43never wear them. I like a mini skirt but not
- 39:45micro shorts personally. I just, I don't know what I
- 39:48don't think they look very good on me.
- 39:49I've kind of like as I've gotten older, I'm 27.
- 39:52I'm like acting like I'm like 50 years old.
- 39:54I'm like not usually as into like the mini stuff as much, but
- 39:57like recently I've kind of like like a mini skirt and tights and
- 40:00stuff. But I don't know, the shorts are
- 40:01just kind of to me. I'm not a big fan but I do I
- 40:04agree they look good on some people, just not.
- 40:06My vibe personally. OK.
- 40:08Last one is collagen face masks. Oh, these are hot.
- 40:11Jamie and I sleep in these all the time.
- 40:14Makes you feel better about yourself.
- 40:16Waking up the next day, you're peeling it off, your skin is
- 40:19glowing and it's just like a little thing of a little
- 40:22self-care thing that you treat yourself with.
- 40:24So I'm going to go hot. I'm going to go hot as well.
- 40:27I love those collagen face masks from like Medicube.
- 40:30It's like this South Korean brand.
- 40:32Everybody's so into Korean skin care right now and I swear it
- 40:35makes my face look like a last when I like take it off in the
- 40:38morning. I'm absolutely obsessed.
- 40:39I literally can't order these enough.
- 40:41I'm like always ordering them off of TikTok shop and
- 40:43everything. And I like that you can apply
- 40:45your skin care underneath and it really like locks in that skin
- 40:48care for the night. And I do find them very easy to
- 40:50sleep with. Like I tried doing that mouth
- 40:51taping. I cannot sleep with that.
- 40:54I'm sorry I'm I guess a mouth breather at night.
- 40:56Like I don't even know what to say but I literally can't fall
- 40:58asleep with that my. Mom says I can't wear these to
- 41:00bed because you get claustrophobic.
- 41:02I've seen girls use scissors on the nose part to pull it up.
- 41:05That way it doesn't feel like it's drooping over your nose and
- 41:09blocking you from being able to breathe.
- 41:11So take some tips from those influencers too of just maybe
- 41:15snipping the sides of it a little bit.
- 41:16I promise it's worth it. Yeah, I also sleep on my face
- 41:19too, so I feel like it protects my face from my pillow at night.
- 41:23But yeah, we do a lot of those. My skin is so bad right now
- 41:25because I've just been doing so much makeup for like, all of our
- 41:28press and filming and everything.
- 41:29I just feel like I'm constantly having makeup on my skin.
- 41:31And so it's definitely like, nice to take that all off and
- 41:33put that on to like, refresh your skin at night.
- 41:35OK, you guys headed in to our last segment of the day,
- 41:39propaganda that we're not falling for Cameron, what is
- 41:44yours this week? OK well we are on the topic of
- 41:47skin care so my propaganda that I'm not falling for is a 10 step
- 41:51skin care routine. I honestly this has been like a
- 41:54huge trend recently and I know like my little sister's 13 she
- 41:59watches all the videos of like the girls her age using all the
- 42:02drunk elephant things. But I'm going to go with less is
- 42:05more. You also need to let those
- 42:07ingredients sit individually and if you're putting 1 ingredient
- 42:10on top of another, your pores aren't going to be able able to
- 42:14handle that. So I think if you have a good
- 42:15vitamin C serum, if you have a good retinoid cream, especially
- 42:19when you're older, I would say like probably start that like
- 42:21your mid 20s. You won't need like a retinoid
- 42:23cream when you're really young and like a moisturizer.
- 42:25If you're, you know, out West and you live in like a drier
- 42:28climate, I would say like use a moisturizer more.
- 42:31But I just don't think that you need all of the serums and all
- 42:34of the things. Just cater it to your face.
- 42:36If you have dark under eyes, I can understand that.
- 42:38If you're see if your skin is dry or if it's oily, cater it to
- 42:41that. You don't need all of these
- 42:43treatments on your face because I think it's a gimmick and it's
- 42:46a scam. Yeah, I'm going to have to agree
- 42:48with that, Cameron. I'm like kind of a lazy girl, I
- 42:50will fully admit. Like my mom is a big skin care
- 42:53guru and I will say she looks so good for her age.
- 42:56So maybe I should take a page out of that book.
- 42:58But I am very simple. Sometimes I'm just putting the
- 43:01retinol on a face oil and then I like to put like this Egyptian
- 43:05magic cream. We can put that up.
- 43:07And I put that on like where any spots that you could potentially
- 43:09get wrinkles like your forehead under your eyes, like between my
- 43:13eyebrows and like around my mouth and stuff.
- 43:15I think like it's called like slugging at night.
- 43:18And I love going to bed with that.
- 43:19And then sometimes I'll throw that collagen mask on on top as
- 43:22well. And I think that's great.
- 43:23OK, mine is this is getting like completely different topic that
- 43:28we haven't covered this like recently, but that you have to
- 43:32breastfeed your baby. OK, I am trying to be out here
- 43:36and represent the moms that have had difficulty breastfeeding.
- 43:39Look, I'm in the Maha movement as well.
- 43:41I really am like for the all natural, making America healthy
- 43:44again. Let's take the chemicals out of
- 43:45our food. I want to improve our formula in
- 43:47the US. I'm very passionate about that.
- 43:49I actually got my formula for Vivian out.
- 43:52I got a German brand actually. I'll also put that up on the
- 43:54screen for you guys. It's called HIP formula is
- 43:56amazing. But I did feel when I had
- 43:58Vivian, I tried my absolute best to breastfeed and it was really
- 44:01difficult for me. It was not working.
- 44:03And I do feel like that there is a lot of pressure on women and I
- 44:07felt like I, I felt very guilty that I couldn't properly
- 44:09breastfeed and it wasn't working.
- 44:11And so I'm telling you guys, for women that are just having kids,
- 44:14you're going to be OK. Vivian is so healthy.
- 44:17She's above and beyond all of her height, weight, any
- 44:20expectation, like she's as sharp as a tack.
- 44:22I say she's like 2 going on 10 and I, I did mainly formula
- 44:26feeding and like I said, I invested in good formula.
- 44:29So I think that's very important.
- 44:30All natural formula. Unfortunately in the US, we know
- 44:33this and RFK is addressing a lot of these issues.
- 44:35There's a lot of chemicals and you know, sugars and stuff in,
- 44:38in our formula. So I would recommend this brand,
- 44:41but do not feel that pressure. This is what I say.
- 44:43Try your best to breastfeed. They say that at the beginning,
- 44:46it's called liquid gold colostrum.
- 44:48I think that that's really important that you do your best
- 44:50to at least to do that. And so I did that with Vivian
- 44:53and then we worked for a few weeks.
- 44:54You guys, we were doing our absolute best, but like I said,
- 44:57it doesn't work out for every single bomb.
- 44:58And so if it's not working and it's literally, it was so much
- 45:01stress on me. Like I, I'm sure so many moms
- 45:03can agree with me on this. The stress of feeding that
- 45:05newborn baby is just so immense. And if it's ruining your time
- 45:09being a mom, then do not worry. You can substitute, you can do
- 45:13both. I, I just, I, I think that
- 45:15there's such a pressure on women that we shouldn't put.
- 45:18And I, I think at the end of the day, fed is best and just be the
- 45:23best mom you can be and it will be OK.
- 45:25You guys, I saw this like meme. I, I'm also going to put this up
- 45:28on the screen. There was like a slide that go,
- 45:30it was 2 slides going into one for a listening audience.
- 45:33And at the bottom it's like breastfed kids, formula fed
- 45:35kids. And it's like eating McDonald's
- 45:37French fries off the bottom of a car.
- 45:39And it's like, no matter what you do and how healthy we are,
- 45:42I'm so healthy with Vivian. At the end of the day, your kids
- 45:44are going to have some junk food at some point.
- 45:46And so just do your best in in every capacity and it's going to
- 45:49be OK moms, OK Cameron, what propaganda are you falling for?
- 45:54Well now I feel like I'm on a completely different note
- 45:56because we love RFK. We love this agenda and the Maha
- 45:59movement. We've both gotten into this
- 46:01recently. But I'm sorry, my guilty
- 46:03pleasure is a Diet Coke almost every single day and I know
- 46:06that's so bad. The aspartame is terrible for
- 46:09you. Sorry RFK, but I love Diet Coke.
- 46:12I will drink that. That is like my midday pick me
- 46:15up and I don't know, I love putting in a cute cup with my
- 46:18straw glass and sipping it throughout the day.
- 46:21It makes everything a lot better.
- 46:24Yeah, it's so funny because I'm not like a Diet Coke addict.
- 46:27I do understand why people that peel of Diet Coke because I will
- 46:29say this sometimes I don't want a full coffee.
- 46:31And so having a Diet Coke with that little caffeine, I totally
- 46:34agree. It is a little pick me up.
- 46:36My mom, you guys has a full on addiction to Diet Coke.
- 46:38I love her Tracy like literally whenever she comes to my house I
- 46:41have to get like 3 cases I swear to God to keep up with her.
- 46:44And so and then Cameron and her were both here this weekend and
- 46:46they were like fighting each other for my Diet Coke and my
- 46:49free. I bought it and I was like, I
- 46:50know that not only I will drink this, but Tracy will also drink
- 46:54this as well. You know what, guys?
- 46:55It's everything in moderation. Be the healthiest you can be.
- 46:58But if there's some, like, guilty pleasures that make life
- 47:00a little more whole, who cares? I'm for it.
- 47:03I understand it. OK.
- 47:04Mine is once again, completely different.
- 47:07But being alone in your own thoughts, you guys, we live in a
- 47:12society now. OK.
- 47:13I want to take us back to before smartphones.
- 47:15People used to go to the doctor's office, and sometimes
- 47:17you wait 30 to 45 minutes. We've all been in that
- 47:19appointment. And you would be sitting there
- 47:21in your own thoughts because you didn't have the smartphone that
- 47:23you were scrolling through. And nowadays people are cleaning
- 47:27with, you know, music constantly playing or podcasts and they're
- 47:30on their beds scrolling whenever they get like even a second off.
- 47:33And I don't think enough people spend enough time like in their
- 47:36own thoughts. Even when you're working out,
- 47:38people are watching TV, listening to music, the podcasts
- 47:40and stuff. And I will tell you, I think
- 47:42it's so important to take some time off of your phone.
- 47:45Don't have that background noise, don't have the TV on and
- 47:48focus on your own thoughts. I do this in the shower, for
- 47:51example. I think everyone has different
- 47:53places where you can make this happen.
- 47:55And I swear, you guys my most innovative ideas.
- 47:58I came up with the conservator and Sincerely American both in
- 48:01the shower because I'm standing there washing my hair and I
- 48:04don't have anything else on. I can really focus on my life,
- 48:06what I want to do. That's where I like when I'm
- 48:08about to do a news hit. Where I like prepare everything
- 48:10is I take that time to myself to really like be in my own
- 48:13thoughts. And I think a lot of people in
- 48:14the same age are scared to do so.
- 48:16I actually get the closest I've ever been to the Lord when I'm
- 48:20in the car because I can have these long winded prayers where
- 48:23I'm just talking to God, asking God like what I can do to be
- 48:26better. Like Jamie noted, the most
- 48:28creative ideas come to me while I'm driving down the road.
- 48:31I don't know if it's just because I'm passing.
- 48:34Like I take the scenic route a lot.
- 48:36Normally it's going through the South.
- 48:37I've I've driven from Kentucky to Florida, Florida to Kentucky,
- 48:41Kentucky to DCI drive everywhere and I love it.
- 48:44And I sit alone in my own thoughts.
- 48:45I don't listen to podcasts. I am not reading an audio book.
- 48:49I am genuinely just talking to the Lord.
- 48:51A lot of people get uncomfortable with that because
- 48:53they don't want to self reflect. They don't want to see what they
- 48:56could be doing better, reflecting on those creative
- 48:58ideas, starting something new. They're they're finding
- 49:01comfortability in the noise. A lot of people find
- 49:03comfortability in the noise. I'm saying I.
- 49:05Think if you want to encourage yourself to be the best version
- 49:07of yourself and the most intelligent version of yourself,
- 49:10you should be thinking about the world and where you fall in it
- 49:12and where your philosophy is, what you believe in faith, what
- 49:15you believe in politics and taking time to really craft
- 49:18that. And I think that's the best way
- 49:19to approach the world in this crazy time that we live in and
- 49:22really know who you are deep down and what your values are.
- 49:26And that time alone, whether you're in the car, you're in the
- 49:28shower, or you're going on a run, you're making your bed,
- 49:30you're cleaning. Those moments I think are so
- 49:32valuable. And no one talks about that
- 49:34enough. And so I would really encourage
- 49:36you guys to put down the phone. I know it's cliche to say I'm
- 49:38not trying to be a boomer right now, but there's a lot of good
- 49:42that comes out of it. We challenge you to find
- 49:44comfortability in the silence. But don't put down the podcast
- 49:49with us. Continue to listen to us.
- 49:51I'll say that's A1 exception. We love having you guys here and
- 49:55we're so thankful for you guys tuning in every week to
- 49:57Sincerely American. We love hearing from you.
- 50:00We love seeing you guys. Send us those DMS and make sure
- 50:02that you guys are following us on Instagram and TikTok at
- 50:05Sincerely American. We'll see you girls next week.
- 50:08Thank you. Bye.
- 50:19We'll see you every Wednesday.
