Speaker 1: Hello you guys, Welcome back to another episode of the
0:16
Speaker 1: Hawkgrel Energy Podcast. I'm your host, Kayleie, and this is
0:19
Speaker 1: your weekly reminder that it's a new day, a new week,
0:22
Speaker 1: a new mindset, and another day if you become the
0:24
Speaker 1: howt Grel Energy you want to attract. Hello you guys,
0:28
Speaker 1: Happy Wednesday, Welcome to a new episode. I'm already feeling
0:32
Speaker 1: really good going into the month of May. I feel
0:35
Speaker 1: like just getting back into habits and setting these goals
0:39
Speaker 1: for myself. This month has been, honestly so like mindset changing,
0:43
Speaker 1: if that makes sense. I feel like my mindset's just
0:46
Speaker 1: in such a better headspace this month, even compared to
0:49
Speaker 1: just the past few months of the winter season, and yeah,
0:53
Speaker 1: I'm just feeling really good about it. I've been listening
0:55
Speaker 1: to a lot of podcasts lately, which I feel like
0:59
Speaker 1: I'm always listen listening to one while walking, But there's
1:01
Speaker 1: the odd time where you know, I switch between listening
1:04
Speaker 1: to a podcast or just listening to music, and I
1:06
Speaker 1: feel like I was kind of leaning more towards just
1:09
Speaker 1: like listening to music or watching YouTube videos versus actually
1:11
Speaker 1: listening to podcasts. And one podcast episode that my girlfriend
1:16
Speaker 1: was like, you need to listen to this episode because
1:19
Speaker 1: it is so down your alley in terms of just
1:22
Speaker 1: like talking about health and wellness and really focusing on
1:26
Speaker 1: women's health and how women are working out and what
1:29
Speaker 1: women are doing and seeing the actual benefits to just
1:33
Speaker 1: like your overall physique on how you're feeling as a woman,
1:36
Speaker 1: and how we should be eating and how we should
1:38
Speaker 1: be working out. And it was a recent episode with
1:41
Speaker 1: Mel Robbins and a doctor I can't remember her name,
1:45
Speaker 1: to be honest, but I will put the episode that
1:47
Speaker 1: I'm referencing in the description because I definitely think this
1:50
Speaker 1: is something that all women should listen to, because it
1:53
Speaker 1: really opened up my eyes personally, because I never really
1:57
Speaker 1: knew the science and research behind a lot of these
2:01
Speaker 1: trends that we see on social media when it comes
2:03
Speaker 1: to how we should be eating, how we should be
2:06
Speaker 1: working out as women. And I'll give a brief summary
2:10
Speaker 1: of the episode because it was just such an eye
2:12
Speaker 1: opening and shocking episode to listen to, and I wanted
2:16
Speaker 1: to bring it into conversation into this episode because of course,
2:20
Speaker 1: we're all about just finding ways to improve our overall health,
2:23
Speaker 1: our mindset, all that, and in today's episode, we do
2:26
Speaker 1: kind of touch on just things you could do to
2:28
Speaker 1: really glow up for the summer season, things that I
2:32
Speaker 1: recommend investing in that I've personally tried, that I think
2:35
Speaker 1: is worth the hype. So I kind of wanted to
2:38
Speaker 1: bring it into a conversation in today's episode because essentially
2:42
Speaker 1: what this doctor was saying in this episode was that
2:46
Speaker 1: the way that these trends that we're seeing in terms
2:49
Speaker 1: of different types of diets, so like intermittent and fasting,
2:52
Speaker 1: the Keto diet, plant based diet, all those little things,
2:56
Speaker 1: along with how we should be working out. You know,
2:59
Speaker 1: for a lot of the time, people were saying like
3:02
Speaker 1: lifting heavy, you know, don't do low impact work, odes,
3:05
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, like everything you can imagine that you
3:07
Speaker 1: see on social media, and how people should be doing.
3:10
Speaker 2: You know, certain things.
3:11
Speaker 1: And of course, everyone has a different body and things
3:15
Speaker 1: work differently for everyone's body. But as females compared to males,
3:20
Speaker 1: there is a difference when it comes to the health
3:22
Speaker 1: and wellness industry, and apparently like ninety percent of research
3:28
Speaker 1: when it comes to these diets and the way we
3:30
Speaker 1: work out is all based off of men. Like all
3:33
Speaker 1: the research is done with men, not female. So this woman,
3:36
Speaker 1: what she was saying is that one thing that was
3:38
Speaker 1: quite shocking to me was that women should not be fasting,
3:42
Speaker 1: like women should not be doing the intermittent fasting diet,
3:46
Speaker 1: which technically I don't intermit in fast like I don't
3:49
Speaker 1: have a specific time of eating, like you know, I
3:51
Speaker 1: don't eat till noon and then I stop eating at eight,
3:53
Speaker 1: Like I don't do that type of thing. But I
3:55
Speaker 1: do technically fast in a way because I wake up,
3:58
Speaker 1: I go to an early morning workout class, I don't
4:00
Speaker 1: eat before just because it's so early that I'm not
4:03
Speaker 1: really hungry, and by the time I get back, you know,
4:05
Speaker 1: I eat my breakfast. So technically I shouldn't be doing that,
4:08
Speaker 1: which I didn't know that. And basically, women need fuel
4:14
Speaker 1: in order for us to actually see the results that
4:17
Speaker 1: we want to see when it comes.
4:18
Speaker 2: To our physique.
4:20
Speaker 1: And that was a real eye opening thing that she said,
4:24
Speaker 1: because I feel like men who do fast are seeing
4:27
Speaker 1: such high results and all that, and she's like, yes,
4:30
Speaker 1: it works for men. Fasting works for men, but for
4:33
Speaker 1: women it's going to provide the opposite effect. So that
4:36
Speaker 1: to me was probably the most shocking thing that I
4:39
Speaker 1: heard from that episode. Another thing they touched on was
4:41
Speaker 1: about cold plunges and how cold plunges are not recommended
4:45
Speaker 1: for women based on the way our brain and like
4:49
Speaker 1: body work, along with how workouts actually affect our stress
4:54
Speaker 1: levels and that's what affects our weight loss or you know,
4:59
Speaker 1: muscle gain and all that. So essentially working out is
5:02
Speaker 1: our way to relieve our stress. And the reason why
5:04
Speaker 1: when people aren't working out or moving their bodies and
5:07
Speaker 1: they see an increase in stress, it's because they're not
5:10
Speaker 1: moving their bodies, which kind of makes sense. But anyways,
5:13
Speaker 1: I recommend every woman that is listening to this episode
5:16
Speaker 1: to go listen to it. It's Mel Robbins, which is
5:19
Speaker 1: one of my favorite podcasts to listen to. She's so
5:21
Speaker 1: inspiring and this woman that came on her podcast as
5:24
Speaker 1: a doctor just to kind of talk about these things
5:26
Speaker 1: and how most likely the stuff you're seeing on social
5:30
Speaker 1: media is probably based off of men's research and it's
5:34
Speaker 1: most likely not for a female. And it's funny because
5:38
Speaker 1: my mom actually intermittent fast, like she does not eat
5:41
Speaker 1: till noon and then she eats dinner. I think the
5:44
Speaker 1: late is at like six o'clock, and then she doesn't
5:45
Speaker 1: eat the rest of night. But you know, my mom's
5:47
Speaker 1: always like, oh, you know, with menopause, it's kind of
5:49
Speaker 1: hard to see results. And I think that's very normal
5:52
Speaker 1: to be in the menopause phase and feel that way.
5:55
Speaker 1: So I said to my mom, I'm like, I really
5:56
Speaker 1: think you should listen to this episode because I think
5:58
Speaker 1: it might be a really eye opening experience for you,
6:01
Speaker 1: and maybe it's time for you to make a change
6:03
Speaker 1: in your current lifestyle. Like maybe it isn't doing Intermont fasting,
6:06
Speaker 1: maybe it's doing something different. Maybe you should be doing
6:08
Speaker 1: you know, heavier lifting and doing more strength training versus
6:12
Speaker 1: just you know, doing cardio. So my mom is a
6:14
Speaker 1: big believer in cardio, and I don't know, I just
6:16
Speaker 1: feel like she could listen to it just to kind
6:19
Speaker 1: of understand what I learned from the episode. And yeah,
6:24
Speaker 1: so anyways, I will put the episode in the description.
6:26
Speaker 1: Obviously that was like a very like vague description and
6:30
Speaker 1: summary of the episode, But anyways, I highly recommend listening
6:33
Speaker 1: to it if you really want to understand the woman's
6:35
Speaker 1: body and just everything they said when it comes to
6:38
Speaker 1: just eating and the way we exercise as females. Obviously,
6:42
Speaker 1: summer is our topic of today's episode. Honestly, the whole
6:45
Speaker 1: month of May, it's going to be a lot of
6:47
Speaker 1: just like getting prepped for the summer season. But I
6:50
Speaker 1: wanted to quickly touch base on something exciting that we're
6:53
Speaker 1: doing here at my house. We're finally setting up our
6:56
Speaker 1: backyard this weekend. I'm so excited about it. I think
6:59
Speaker 1: I kind of touched base on it in the last episode,
7:02
Speaker 1: just talking about how we planned on setting it up,
7:05
Speaker 1: and we went to home depot this past weekend. I
7:07
Speaker 1: ended up actually vlogging on YouTube. I kind of took
7:10
Speaker 1: a vlogging break from YouTube just because I mentioned in
7:14
Speaker 1: the last episode that I was kind of having like
7:15
Speaker 1: an anxiety period situation the.
7:19
Speaker 2: Last two weeks and just wasn't in the right headspace.
7:21
Speaker 1: So I kind of took a step back from YouTube
7:23
Speaker 1: until I felt, you know, back to my normal self.
7:26
Speaker 1: And I'm feeling back to my normal self, which is good.
7:28
Speaker 1: So I got back onto YouTube and we kind of
7:31
Speaker 1: just touched on a few things that we were looking at,
7:34
Speaker 1: like a barbecue, looking at interlock, plants, how we're going
7:38
Speaker 1: to design the backyard all that, and we decided on
7:41
Speaker 1: not doing interlock. We decided that We're going to do
7:43
Speaker 1: a deck instead, only because interlock will take a lot
7:48
Speaker 1: longer to do for Zach to do. To be honest,
7:51
Speaker 1: we could have hired someone to obviously do the backyard,
7:54
Speaker 1: but that's just like way over the budget and we
7:57
Speaker 1: don't want to do that, whereas Zach and my dad
8:00
Speaker 1: are going to do it, hopefully in a weekend or
8:02
Speaker 1: two of just adding a nice little area for us
8:05
Speaker 1: to set up like a couch, a dining set, a barbecue,
8:09
Speaker 1: all that, and the interlock was going to cost us
8:13
Speaker 1: like six thousand dollars, which I'm like, oh, that's over
8:17
Speaker 1: the budget, where as a deck was going to cost
8:20
Speaker 1: us like half the amount. So I'm like, okay, well,
8:22
Speaker 1: I feel more comfortable paying for a deck verse interlock.
8:25
Speaker 1: So we decided to do that because, in full transparency,
8:29
Speaker 1: we don't plan on living here for that much longer,
8:32
Speaker 1: so I didn't really want to invest in that much
8:36
Speaker 1: money for a backyard that I'm not going to be
8:38
Speaker 1: able to take with me when I move out. So anyways,
8:41
Speaker 1: we're not moving out like anytime soon. I'm just saying
8:43
Speaker 1: that we didn't feel the need to invest that much
8:46
Speaker 1: money in the backyard when it's not like our permanent home.
8:49
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's just a little update on that, but
8:51
Speaker 1: we're really excited my backyard inspo I have on my Pinterest,
8:55
Speaker 1: which you guys know, I'm always on Pinterest, just literally
8:58
Speaker 1: planning out my life as we y'all should, just envisioning
9:01
Speaker 1: and romanticizing our.
9:03
Speaker 2: Life and how we envision it.
9:04
Speaker 1: And I have so many backyards plans and I have
9:07
Speaker 1: a full in spellboard if you guys are interested in
9:09
Speaker 1: going to check that out. But it's very like coastal
9:11
Speaker 1: summer vibes, very much like a Cape cod vibe or
9:15
Speaker 1: a Nantucket just very like beachy coastal cottage core kind
9:19
Speaker 1: of vibe. That's the vibe I have for the backyard bute. Yeah,
9:22
Speaker 1: I have my Pinterest I think linked in the description.
9:25
Speaker 1: If I don't, I will include it because that's like
9:27
Speaker 1: literally my safe space. I'm literally constantly on that app
9:30
Speaker 1: every single morning and night, and I'm constantly saving things
9:33
Speaker 1: that I kind of envision for my goals or for
9:38
Speaker 1: my lifestyle anything like that. And we're gonna actually kind
9:41
Speaker 1: of touch on that in this episode because we did
9:43
Speaker 1: talk about in last week's episode about a summer persona
9:48
Speaker 1: of this women that you want to become this summer, Like,
9:51
Speaker 1: how do you want to see yourself for this summer season?
9:55
Speaker 1: And I think that's a big goal for everyone. And
9:59
Speaker 1: I think everyone needs to vision that person that they
10:01
Speaker 1: want to become for this season, whether it's becoming a
10:04
Speaker 1: Pilates princess, a Hawkgirl, walker, a Jim Batty, whatever it is.
10:09
Speaker 1: I think everyone kind of has a vision. Or maybe
10:11
Speaker 1: it's the travel girl who's constantly traveling hitting different places up,
10:15
Speaker 1: Like I think we all kind of have a different
10:17
Speaker 1: vision for how are summer's going to be? And I
10:20
Speaker 1: think we all need to get on Pinterest. We all
10:22
Speaker 1: need to create a vision board of this persona that
10:24
Speaker 1: we see ourself becoming. And the best spot is going
10:28
Speaker 1: on Pinterest and finding pictures and really representing this persona
10:32
Speaker 1: that you starve to become, because we all want to
10:34
Speaker 1: be our healthiest self, our happiest self, our best looking self,
10:38
Speaker 1: Like we all want to feel beautiful this summer. And
10:41
Speaker 1: I want to share some things when it comes to
10:43
Speaker 1: a glow up of how we can feel a bit
10:45
Speaker 1: more confident in ourselves by just doing these little things.
10:49
Speaker 1: And I'm going to be honest, I'm high maintenance. I
10:51
Speaker 1: think everyone knows that I have an extras fuck morning
10:55
Speaker 1: routine that I do every single morning. But I romanticize
10:58
Speaker 1: my life. But I find doing those things makes me
11:01
Speaker 1: feel good. I feel happy doing it, and I know,
11:03
Speaker 1: as I said, it's extra, but it makes me feel good,
11:07
Speaker 1: So why not do it?
11:08
Speaker 2: And again, it's all about who the heck cares? Right?
11:10
Speaker 1: Why are we caring about what people think of us?
11:13
Speaker 1: If it makes you feel good, if it puts you
11:15
Speaker 1: in the right mindset, then you should just do it.
11:18
Speaker 1: So one thing that I love to do that I
11:20
Speaker 1: feel like really boosts my confidence is I always love
11:23
Speaker 1: to get my nails done. And I actually just got
11:25
Speaker 1: my nails done recently. I did this most perfect nail
11:28
Speaker 1: shade that I find is the most perfect neutral nail color.
11:32
Speaker 1: It's not bubble bath, it's not funny bunny. It's called
11:35
Speaker 1: the Pearly Pink, and it really just does give that
11:38
Speaker 1: pearly look.
11:38
Speaker 2: If you're actually a bride to be.
11:40
Speaker 1: This color would be really good to try out, to
11:42
Speaker 1: be honest, because it's so stunning. And then I added
11:45
Speaker 1: a chrome finish on top, and I just love how
11:48
Speaker 1: neutral it is. I love that it looks very clean.
11:51
Speaker 1: It's just a very good go to nail shade if
11:54
Speaker 1: you're looking for something that's different and you want to
11:56
Speaker 1: change it up, and if you're like me who likes
11:58
Speaker 1: the neutral nails, I recommend doing your nails like this.
12:01
Speaker 1: It feels just like very put together, which is what
12:05
Speaker 1: I like. But you could also do colors that kind
12:07
Speaker 1: of go with the season. So obviously, with it being
12:10
Speaker 1: summer right now, I love pale yellow. I also love
12:13
Speaker 1: the color like pistachio, so kind of like a sage green.
12:17
Speaker 1: I think that's really nice as well. I also love
12:19
Speaker 1: baby blue. Obviously, blue is like such a nice color
12:23
Speaker 1: for the summer season. I also love the navy blue,
12:26
Speaker 1: which I did navy blue nails for my Mexico trip
12:29
Speaker 1: a few weeks back, and it was one of my
12:32
Speaker 1: favorite nail colors I've ever done with a tan, like
12:34
Speaker 1: I don't know, I never thought dark nails would be
12:37
Speaker 1: good to do in the summer, but the navy blue
12:39
Speaker 1: just really made me feel really confident, and pairing it
12:43
Speaker 1: with jewelry, it just looked so I don't want to
12:46
Speaker 1: say this, but it looked so rich, like I don't know,
12:48
Speaker 1: it just like made me feel some type of way
12:51
Speaker 1: with the dark deep blue nail colors, so try it out.
12:55
Speaker 1: Those are a few colors that I recommend going into
12:57
Speaker 1: the summer season. And let's be honest, I think everyone
13:00
Speaker 1: and congree that we just feel so much more put
13:01
Speaker 1: together when our nails are done, and even having a
13:04
Speaker 1: matching pedicure would be elite.
13:07
Speaker 2: I am due for a pedicure.
13:09
Speaker 1: I don't like getting my pedicure done and my manicure
13:11
Speaker 1: done in the same day because it almost takes like
13:13
Speaker 1: two hours, and to be honest, the hour alone of
13:16
Speaker 1: getting my nails done is already enough for me. I'm like,
13:19
Speaker 1: I've you been sitting here for an hour. I have
13:21
Speaker 1: stuff to do. I don't have the time to do
13:22
Speaker 1: a whole two hour appointment. So I'm hoping that I
13:25
Speaker 1: could get a pedicure either this week or next week,
13:28
Speaker 1: because they desperately need to be done. But I like
13:31
Speaker 1: to usually do the same color on my hands and
13:35
Speaker 1: my feet. But everyone's been talking about the French nails
13:39
Speaker 1: on the toes, which I haven't done yet, and I'm like,
13:41
Speaker 1: maybe I need to pull the trigger and do that
13:43
Speaker 1: because I see Pincher's photos and I'm like, this looks
13:46
Speaker 1: so clean, girl, so aesthetic, just the vibe that I'm
13:51
Speaker 1: looking for for my feet.
13:52
Speaker 2: Even though this is like, I never ever ever.
13:55
Speaker 1: Show my feet because I find it's so weird with
13:57
Speaker 1: everything on social media that you see about like feet
13:59
Speaker 1: picks and stuff. I don't know, I find it weird,
14:01
Speaker 1: So I never show my feet, but I like to
14:04
Speaker 1: make sure that my feet look good obviously, And I
14:07
Speaker 1: hear everyone talking about the French nails on the toes,
14:09
Speaker 1: so I'm like, maybe I need to jump on this trend.
14:11
Speaker 1: But anyways, definitely recommend doing your nails and it's something
14:15
Speaker 1: that you could do at home. I've seen so many
14:17
Speaker 1: people also talk about the shellac nail polish and UV
14:20
Speaker 1: light that you can buy from Amazon, and it's just
14:22
Speaker 1: like way more affordable option versus going to spend xyzmout
14:26
Speaker 1: at your nail salon to get them done. Like doing
14:28
Speaker 1: them yourself is also so amazing to do, and there's
14:32
Speaker 1: so many things that you could buy off Amazon that
14:34
Speaker 1: are so affordable that can save you money and still
14:37
Speaker 1: make you feel put together. Another thing that sometimes a
14:40
Speaker 1: girl just needs to do before going into a new
14:42
Speaker 1: season is getting their hair done. Doesn't have to be dramatic.
14:45
Speaker 1: It could just be a trim, it could be a
14:47
Speaker 1: different hairstyle, like maybe you're looking for layers. Maybe you
14:50
Speaker 1: want to do the butterfly haircut where it's like bangs
14:53
Speaker 1: and you know, different kinds of layers. Maybe you want
14:56
Speaker 1: to cut it and do something dramatic, like go from
14:58
Speaker 1: your long hairstyle to a short hairstyle, Like maybe it's
15:01
Speaker 1: time to change it up going into a new season.
15:03
Speaker 1: But for me, I went basic with my hair appointments.
15:06
Speaker 1: I just went a little bit darker and I did
15:09
Speaker 1: my typical long layers and bang trim. I would call
15:12
Speaker 1: it the butterfly haircut. That's what I call it, and
15:14
Speaker 1: it's what people on social media call it. But it's
15:17
Speaker 1: like chunky layers with face framing bangs that are like
15:21
Speaker 1: buy your jawline. And it's just been my go to
15:23
Speaker 1: haircut for I don't know, like the last three years,
15:26
Speaker 1: and I just love the way it looks when it's styled.
15:29
Speaker 1: I don't plan on cutting my hair anytime soon. I
15:31
Speaker 1: almost had a phase last summer where I wanted to
15:34
Speaker 1: cut it before my wedding, which is so crazy. I
15:37
Speaker 1: can't believe I wanted to do that before my wedding
15:38
Speaker 1: because I love my long hair. Like I'm talking, my
15:41
Speaker 1: hair is down to my belly button, and I wanted
15:42
Speaker 1: to cut it like above my boobs, which is so
15:45
Speaker 1: bold of me, because I don't think I've ever I mean,
15:49
Speaker 1: that is the only time I can think that I
15:51
Speaker 1: ever wanted to cut my hair that short. But I
15:53
Speaker 1: had this like weird phase that I wanted to just
15:55
Speaker 1: cut it like mid length, which I mean, hey, if
15:58
Speaker 1: I did it, hair grows back, not the end of
16:00
Speaker 1: the world. But I just love my long hair so much.
16:02
Speaker 1: Now thinking back, I am happy I kept the length
16:05
Speaker 1: for my wedding and for myself because I do really
16:08
Speaker 1: love the way the long hair looks on me. But
16:10
Speaker 1: sometimes it's good to change it up. As I said,
16:12
Speaker 1: like it's at the end of the day, it is hair.
16:14
Speaker 1: It is going to grow back, So trying something new
16:16
Speaker 1: is always fun, and it allows you to feel a
16:19
Speaker 1: bit prettier, a bit more confident, and I feel like
16:22
Speaker 1: getting your hair done always looks so amazing, Like my
16:25
Speaker 1: girl does this treatment on me and my hair is
16:27
Speaker 1: shiny for like four weeks, and then as soon as
16:30
Speaker 1: the shine is gone, I'm like, I need to go
16:31
Speaker 1: back even though I shouldn't go back because it costs
16:34
Speaker 1: so much money to do your hair, but it does
16:36
Speaker 1: feel really good. So one thing that you could do
16:39
Speaker 1: as like a dupe or something that could really give
16:41
Speaker 1: you that shine and that overall look of just having
16:44
Speaker 1: healthier hair is investing in a hair mask. There's so
16:47
Speaker 1: many amazing brands out there. One hair mask that I
16:50
Speaker 1: personally have been loving is by the brand Redkin. It's
16:53
Speaker 1: actually the one that Madison Beer uses, I believe, and
16:56
Speaker 1: it's like a gloss that you can put on. I
16:59
Speaker 1: think it's like fifteen to twenty minutes after you shampoo.
17:03
Speaker 1: You just leave it in your hair and then you
17:04
Speaker 1: rinse it out, and it really just gives that shine
17:07
Speaker 1: that you would see at a hair salon. It is
17:10
Speaker 1: so good and it literally works wonders. It's one of
17:12
Speaker 1: my favorite hair mass Another one that I really love
17:15
Speaker 1: is by the brand Olaplex. I again leave it in
17:19
Speaker 1: for like fifteen to twenty minutes, print it out, and
17:21
Speaker 1: again gives that like really like deep moisturize healthy hair look.
17:25
Speaker 1: I have very dry hair, so when I do a mask,
17:28
Speaker 1: it like literally brings my hair back to life, which
17:31
Speaker 1: is so refreshing, so that's kind of like a way
17:34
Speaker 1: to give that nice overall like finished hair look like
17:38
Speaker 1: if you don't want to spend the money on getting
17:39
Speaker 1: a haircut, like I recommend doing hair mass or honestly
17:43
Speaker 1: just giving yourself a good old blowout on a weekly basis,
17:46
Speaker 1: Like I personally blow out my hair like once or
17:48
Speaker 1: twice a week because I feel more confident when my
17:51
Speaker 1: hair is blown out. You know, the natural hair has
17:53
Speaker 1: been coming out a lot lately, as you guys know,
17:55
Speaker 1: when I finally have a natural hair routine that I've
17:58
Speaker 1: been loving so so I definitely think the natural hair
18:01
Speaker 1: will be out more this summer, knowing that there's gonna
18:04
Speaker 1: be a lot of cottage days and you know, going
18:07
Speaker 1: swimming in the pool and all that. So I'm definitely
18:09
Speaker 1: gonna want to bring out the natural curls more. And
18:12
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but I feel like every husband
18:14
Speaker 1: or boyfriend or man in your life will always say
18:17
Speaker 1: that he prefers your natural hair over everything, Like Zach
18:20
Speaker 1: loves my natural hair, which to me I was so
18:22
Speaker 1: shocked by because I think it was so different and
18:25
Speaker 1: so like not something I was comfortable with because it
18:28
Speaker 1: was my natural hair.
18:29
Speaker 2: I don't know I.
18:30
Speaker 1: Feel like, if you have naturally curly hair, maybe like me,
18:33
Speaker 1: I have more like wavy hair. I would say I
18:35
Speaker 1: always had a hard time styling it, and all of
18:38
Speaker 1: a sudden, like when I started styling it in Mexico,
18:41
Speaker 1: Zach was like, this is my favorite hairstyle on you.
18:43
Speaker 1: I'm like, what the heck? It just was shocking to me.
18:46
Speaker 1: So I feel like men just love it when you're
18:48
Speaker 1: your natural self. I don't know if anyone else has
18:51
Speaker 1: the same like situation, but Zach also always compliments me
18:54
Speaker 1: when I'm in my pajamas or when i'm just like giving,
18:58
Speaker 1: you know, no, my one hundred percent self. Like I'll
19:01
Speaker 1: dress up, I'll go full out. I'll put one hundred
19:04
Speaker 1: percent effort in my makeup and my outfit, and you know,
19:06
Speaker 1: I'd be like, oh, yeah, you look nice like whatever.
19:08
Speaker 1: I'll be sitting on the couch with no makeup on.
19:10
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you have a stain on my sweater
19:13
Speaker 1: and You'll be like, oh my god, you look so
19:14
Speaker 1: beautiful right now, and I'm like, what the actual hack? Like,
19:18
Speaker 1: I don't get men sometimes, but anyways, I feel like
19:20
Speaker 1: that sometimes always the case with guys. But anyways, back
19:24
Speaker 1: to what I was actually saying about your hair. But
19:27
Speaker 1: you could get your hair done for the summer, as
19:29
Speaker 1: I said, if you want to feel more confident, or
19:30
Speaker 1: just do hair mass, whatever the case may be. Another
19:33
Speaker 1: thing when it comes to glowing up for the summer
19:35
Speaker 1: season is talking about glow up staples. So what are
19:38
Speaker 1: some things that you could do maybe to improve your
19:41
Speaker 1: overall style or maybe your makeup.
19:44
Speaker 2: Investing in things that.
19:45
Speaker 1: Could really just make you feel a little bit more
19:48
Speaker 1: put together is always nice. So maybe it's getting a
19:51
Speaker 1: new pair of sunglasses. Maybe it's getting a new pair
19:54
Speaker 1: of jeans or a new pair of heels, Like I
19:57
Speaker 1: would say for myself personally, there's trends always evolving, and
20:01
Speaker 1: there's so many affordable options off Amazon, or you can
20:04
Speaker 1: get the designer items whatever you know you feel most
20:07
Speaker 1: comfortable spending with. But Amazon has so many great sunglasses
20:10
Speaker 1: that you get that are a fraction of the price
20:13
Speaker 1: of the designer ones. And I feel more put together
20:15
Speaker 1: when I'm on top of the trends, right Like I
20:17
Speaker 1: love getting just cute sunglasses every summer. I love getting
20:21
Speaker 1: a new water bottle. I love finding a new pair
20:24
Speaker 1: of shoes, Like right now, my suliments have been my
20:27
Speaker 1: favorite walking shoe, whereas last summer, I would say my
20:30
Speaker 1: favorite walking shoe was probably my Rebox platform sneakers.
20:34
Speaker 2: I would wear those all the time.
20:36
Speaker 1: So I feel like every year I'm always into something different,
20:39
Speaker 1: and I think that's very normal with fashion trends, Like
20:41
Speaker 1: everything comes back, everything kind of evolves. It's just kind
20:45
Speaker 1: of the reality. So I feel like every year there's
20:47
Speaker 1: something new that I purchase that I love for a
20:50
Speaker 1: season and that I constantly wear. You know, for the
20:53
Speaker 1: spring season, I was wearing my trench coat from Aritzia
20:55
Speaker 1: like constantly. I bought that last spring, I brought it
20:58
Speaker 1: into this spring. It's a staple so good. So find
21:02
Speaker 1: little things that you can maybe purchase to make yourself
21:04
Speaker 1: feel a bit more confident and more beautiful in yourself.
21:07
Speaker 1: And that could be, as I said, purchasing sunglasses, getting
21:09
Speaker 1: a new outfit. Maybe it's buying a new handbag, like
21:13
Speaker 1: just making your self feel more put together. Getting a
21:15
Speaker 1: matching workout set. We always love buying a new workout set.
21:18
Speaker 1: I feel like that gets me motivated to get to
21:20
Speaker 1: the gym more, aspire to have more of that healthy lifestyle,
21:23
Speaker 1: getting outside to walk more all that, I do not
21:25
Speaker 1: need a new workout set, but I do have two
21:28
Speaker 1: workout sets in my shopping cart right now that I'm like,
21:30
Speaker 1: I don't need it, but I love it and I
21:33
Speaker 1: want it, and if I buy it, it might motivate
21:35
Speaker 1: me to get my walks in, get more workouts in
21:38
Speaker 1: all that, even though I really don't need that, but
21:42
Speaker 1: the new feeling of a new workout.
21:43
Speaker 2: Set is unmatched.
21:45
Speaker 1: Other things that you could invest in is jewelry. I'm
21:47
Speaker 1: a big jewelry girl, so I love wearing earrings on
21:50
Speaker 1: my ears at all times. I love wearing my rings,
21:53
Speaker 1: I love wearing my necklaces, my bracelets. That's just something
21:56
Speaker 1: that I feel like a lot of people don't talk about,
21:58
Speaker 1: is how much more put together you feel when you
22:01
Speaker 1: wear jewelry. I think it's all about accessorizing when it
22:04
Speaker 1: comes to outfits or anything like that. The jewelry plays
22:06
Speaker 1: a huge impact on how the overall outfit looks. So,
22:10
Speaker 1: you know, just wearing a workout set, when I put
22:12
Speaker 1: my earrings on, my rings, on my necklaces on, I
22:14
Speaker 1: feel like that already elevated the workout set because I
22:17
Speaker 1: added all these beautiful jewelry pieces so whether you're a
22:21
Speaker 1: gold girl or a silver girl, there's again so many
22:24
Speaker 1: amazing things that you can get off Amazon. A lot
22:26
Speaker 1: of my jewelry is honestly from Amazon, and then I
22:28
Speaker 1: have invested in a few pieces from like Missouri or
22:32
Speaker 1: Ring Concierge, and yeah, so there's other really good brands.
22:35
Speaker 1: But I personally want to continue investing in my jewelry because,
22:39
Speaker 1: especially gold, it's not cheap, but it does play off
22:42
Speaker 1: in the long run because you know, when you're taking
22:44
Speaker 1: a shower, when you're going swimming, especially in the summer season.
22:48
Speaker 1: I hate constantly taking off my rings and my earrings
22:51
Speaker 1: and you know, it being tarnish and all that. I rather,
22:54
Speaker 1: you know, pay a little bit more money and have
22:55
Speaker 1: everything real, and then it goes a long way with
22:59
Speaker 1: keeping for a long time. My hoops that I wear
23:01
Speaker 1: every single day. Zach actually got me four years ago
23:04
Speaker 1: for Christmas and I still wear them every single day
23:07
Speaker 1: for the past four years and they're just my go
23:09
Speaker 1: to earrings. So it just kind of goes to show
23:12
Speaker 1: that it is worth the investment when you do invest
23:15
Speaker 1: in good quality jewelry. And then for handbags, we kind
23:17
Speaker 1: of touched on that. I feel like right now, crochet
23:20
Speaker 1: bags are really in or even the cute little boat bags.
23:24
Speaker 1: I just got a boat bag for my sister that
23:25
Speaker 1: I've been wearing constantly. It's like the perfect summer bag.
23:28
Speaker 1: It's like a big tot that's kind of like a
23:30
Speaker 1: canvas material. I love using it for workouts, but it
23:33
Speaker 1: would be great for you know, a beach day or
23:36
Speaker 1: bringing it to the grocery store running errands.
23:39
Speaker 2: It's just like the perfect bag.
23:40
Speaker 1: The brand is called Little Beanie Bag and I'm obsessed
23:45
Speaker 1: with it. And then I also love the crochet bag
23:47
Speaker 1: that I brought to Mexico. It's like a crochet clutch,
23:49
Speaker 1: but it's got that like raffia material and it's so good.
23:53
Speaker 1: Other little things that you could do if it makes
23:55
Speaker 1: you feel a bit more confident is getting your eyebrows done.
23:58
Speaker 1: I personally get my eyebrows waxed every month. You could
24:01
Speaker 1: also do microblading for your brows and get them tinted.
24:04
Speaker 1: You can get them laminated. There's so many things that
24:06
Speaker 1: you could do now with your eyebrows to achieve that
24:09
Speaker 1: like low maintenance effect. Everyone talks about that on social media.
24:13
Speaker 1: The high maintenance appointments that will allow you to be
24:15
Speaker 1: low maintenance. There's some people that do lash extensions that
24:18
Speaker 1: allows them to have that low maintenance lifestyle by not
24:21
Speaker 1: having to do their makeup every single day or put
24:23
Speaker 1: mascara on. There's also appointments like Boattox lip filler. I
24:28
Speaker 1: personally have lip filler. I think I've chatted about that
24:31
Speaker 1: in a few episodes ago, but I've had lip filler
24:34
Speaker 1: now for like four or five years.
24:36
Speaker 2: They're very natural.
24:37
Speaker 1: I'm sure some of you may be like, I didn't
24:38
Speaker 1: even realize you had it because my lips are still
24:41
Speaker 1: very small. But that's the point. It's supposed to look natural.
24:45
Speaker 1: If you guys saw a photo of me from like
24:47
Speaker 1: two thousand and twenty or when was it two thousand
24:50
Speaker 1: and No, it would be before that twenty eighteen, maybe
24:54
Speaker 1: you guys would have been like, you have no lips,
24:56
Speaker 1: Like where are your lips? Like this is actually a
24:58
Speaker 1: dramatic difference from what I did back then, And there's
25:01
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with filler.
25:03
Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong. I feel like you do anything to
25:05
Speaker 2: your face.
25:05
Speaker 1: I think it's whatever makes me feel confident, and personally,
25:08
Speaker 1: for me, having a little bit of lip filler makes
25:10
Speaker 1: me feel confident.
25:11
Speaker 2: It makes me feel good. So I usually get them
25:13
Speaker 2: touched up.
25:14
Speaker 1: With like zero point five mL, like barely anything, every
25:18
Speaker 1: like year year and a half. The last time I
25:20
Speaker 1: got them done was for the wedding, and to be honest,
25:22
Speaker 1: I'm kind of due, so I feel like I could
25:24
Speaker 1: get them touched up for the summer. So that's something
25:27
Speaker 1: that I do. I also do a little bit about
25:29
Speaker 1: talks in my forehead. You know, your girl's twenty nine.
25:34
Speaker 2: Do I need it?
25:35
Speaker 1: No, but like it just again makes me feel a
25:37
Speaker 1: little bit more confident. And yeah, I mean it's very
25:41
Speaker 1: normal procedures that people do now, and I'm not afraid
25:44
Speaker 1: to talk about it because I think there's some people
25:46
Speaker 1: that you know, don't want to talk about it. But
25:48
Speaker 1: I feel confident enough to say that, you know, I
25:50
Speaker 1: do these things because they make me feel good. I
25:52
Speaker 1: feel more confident in myself by doing it. And yeah,
25:56
Speaker 1: it's something that I think is very normal now that
25:58
Speaker 1: people do, and I think it's a OK to be
26:00
Speaker 1: open about it. Now, Let's talk about some things that
26:03
Speaker 1: I've invested in that I think is worth the hype,
26:06
Speaker 1: because let's be honest, there is a lot of things
26:11
Speaker 1: that are being promoted through social media and people are saying,
26:15
Speaker 1: oh my god, like this is so worth it. Like
26:18
Speaker 1: some of these things are not actually worth it. One
26:20
Speaker 1: of them being, I'm going to be straight up right here,
26:22
Speaker 1: that I don't think is worth your money is the
26:24
Speaker 1: coconut cult. I personally did not see any benefits from it.
26:28
Speaker 1: I actually got a stomach ache from taking it. I
26:31
Speaker 1: stopped taking it immediately. It's expensive, and I also have
26:36
Speaker 1: some dairy intake issues, so I just didn't think it
26:39
Speaker 1: was settling well with my skin. I mean, there is
26:41
Speaker 1: some people that rave about it and say amazing things
26:44
Speaker 1: about it. Again, do what works for you, But for me,
26:47
Speaker 1: that one didn't personally work for me. So I don't
26:50
Speaker 1: think it's worth your money. But again, if it works
26:52
Speaker 1: for you, that's great, seems gel. I do think it's
26:55
Speaker 1: actually making a difference in my skin because lately I've
26:59
Speaker 1: been doing a few things for my skin, one of
27:01
Speaker 1: them being taking seams shell every single morning. I've been
27:04
Speaker 1: doing the infrared sauna workouts, which is great for your skin,
27:08
Speaker 1: two to three times a week, along with this metacube
27:11
Speaker 1: toner that I recently bought. It's like toner pads, And
27:14
Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, this is the best my
27:16
Speaker 1: skin has ever looked. And those are the three things
27:19
Speaker 1: that I can think of that I have changed in
27:21
Speaker 1: my routine that have really just helped my roseatia. I
27:24
Speaker 1: have rosetia, so I get really irritated red skin, and
27:28
Speaker 1: I have very sensitive skin, so sometimes when I try
27:31
Speaker 1: a new skin product out, it does sometimes react, so
27:34
Speaker 1: I have to be very careful with what I use.
27:36
Speaker 1: But those three things, I feel like I've made a
27:38
Speaker 1: huge difference in my skin, and I actually feel like
27:42
Speaker 1: it's the best my skin has ever looked. Even better
27:44
Speaker 1: from my wedding. I feel like my wedding I was
27:47
Speaker 1: doing facials once every six or eight weeks, which you know,
27:51
Speaker 1: my skin looked good, but I would say this is
27:53
Speaker 1: the best my skin has ever looked. And I think
27:55
Speaker 1: it's because I'm actually being consistent with these things and
27:58
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of benefits with TA. So speaking about skin,
28:01
Speaker 1: let's also talk about the red Light Therapy mask. I
28:05
Speaker 1: am gonna say it's a when I personally love it.
28:08
Speaker 1: I think the red Light Therapy mask has really helped
28:11
Speaker 1: my roseation as well as my dry skin. I will
28:15
Speaker 1: rave about this product. It is quite costly, but I
28:17
Speaker 1: don't think there's really a dupe to the red light
28:19
Speaker 1: therapy mask, unfortunately, but in order to maybe invest in
28:23
Speaker 1: your skincare more, I think using face masks like weekly
28:27
Speaker 1: is really really crucial. One face mask in particular that
28:31
Speaker 1: I've been really liking actually is the one Bi Kadali.
28:34
Speaker 1: They have this clay mask that you could do like
28:37
Speaker 1: three times a week if you wanted to. And I
28:39
Speaker 1: feel like that mask has also been really great for
28:41
Speaker 1: your pores and just the overall like clarity of your skin,
28:46
Speaker 1: if that makes sense. I feel like it really brightens
28:48
Speaker 1: up my skin when I use the mask, So that
28:51
Speaker 1: could be something that's a bit more affordable versus, you know,
28:54
Speaker 1: splurging on the red light therapy mask. There is actually
28:57
Speaker 1: a new mask that just came out. It's called these
29:00
Speaker 1: Led face mask. It literally looks insane. First off, it's
29:05
Speaker 1: like way more intense than the typical therapy mask. There's
29:09
Speaker 1: like a massage 'er in it. I think for your
29:11
Speaker 1: to like deepop your eyes or something.
29:14
Speaker 2: I don't know.
29:14
Speaker 1: It is literally insane looking. I was really shocked that
29:17
Speaker 1: that's what it looked like. But people are using it,
29:20
Speaker 1: people are loving it. Another way actually to help your
29:25
Speaker 1: skincare out is the New Face, which is essentially an
29:28
Speaker 1: electric Guasha where you're able to like sculpt at your face. Again,
29:32
Speaker 1: I think this is worth it. I used it religiously
29:35
Speaker 1: every single morning before my wedding. Now I probably do
29:38
Speaker 1: it like two to three times a week. I wouldn't
29:39
Speaker 1: say I do it every single day, but I do
29:42
Speaker 1: think it's really helped with just that, like defining jawline,
29:46
Speaker 1: defining like cheekbones, all that. So I personally love it.
29:50
Speaker 1: But a dupe to this would be a Guasha tool,
29:52
Speaker 1: which is like literally fifteen to twenty dollars on Amazon
29:55
Speaker 1: doing the same technique, you know, doing the jawline, doing
29:58
Speaker 1: the contour area. If you're consistent with Guasha, you will
30:02
Speaker 1: see results. So I would say those are kind of
30:05
Speaker 1: like the alternatives to the expensive, high quality facial tools
30:09
Speaker 1: that I'm referencing. But I would say all those things
30:12
Speaker 1: truly did make a huge difference in my skincare. Another
30:14
Speaker 1: thing which you guys know I worry about all the
30:16
Speaker 1: time is my walking pad. This has been the best
30:19
Speaker 1: investment to do just for getting my steps in. I
30:23
Speaker 1: made it a goal this month to up my step count,
30:25
Speaker 1: and I've been really trying to increase my step count
30:28
Speaker 1: by using my walking pad at around lunchtime, get some
30:31
Speaker 1: work done at the same time by editing stuff on
30:34
Speaker 1: my computer or on my phone, And it's honestly just
30:37
Speaker 1: been a huge game changer, especially when the weather isn't
30:39
Speaker 1: that great. So if it's raining outside or if it's snowing,
30:42
Speaker 1: I'm able to get my steps in while using the
30:44
Speaker 1: walking pad. And there's not really a dupe to this,
30:47
Speaker 1: but getting yourself outside and walking more is really the
30:50
Speaker 1: only thing that I could recommend, or a treadmill if
30:53
Speaker 1: you have a treadmill in your house, but it's a
30:55
Speaker 1: walking pad and a treadmill is literally the same thing.
30:57
Speaker 1: But just trying to reference some things that are a
31:00
Speaker 1: bit more of a dupe to these more expensive things.
31:04
Speaker 1: The walking pad I think was around like three hundred dollars,
31:07
Speaker 1: so it is quite costly. But what I love about
31:10
Speaker 1: it is that it is a foldable walking pad that
31:13
Speaker 1: you can just like tuck away, don't have to have
31:15
Speaker 1: it out in the open in my home. I can
31:17
Speaker 1: just kind of use it wherever I want, and I
31:19
Speaker 1: could watch a freaking movie at the same time if
31:22
Speaker 1: I wanted to.
31:22
Speaker 2: That's what I love about it.
31:24
Speaker 1: Another thing that I think is worth the hype is
31:26
Speaker 1: investing in a gym membership. I think everyone can agree
31:29
Speaker 1: getting out of the house is probably the best thing
31:31
Speaker 1: to do when you really want to focus and feel
31:33
Speaker 1: motivated to get a workout done. I did do at
31:36
Speaker 1: home workouts for the longest time, I would say for.
31:39
Speaker 2: Like two to three years.
31:40
Speaker 1: During COVID was really when I started to invest in
31:44
Speaker 1: my overall health and start doing online workouts from home.
31:48
Speaker 1: But I will say that I if I compare my
31:51
Speaker 1: performance and my focus level of working out from at
31:55
Speaker 1: home versus being in a actual studio with a workout class,
31:59
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you now I'm more focused in
32:01
Speaker 1: the workout class than I was back home. So of
32:03
Speaker 1: course working out at home is great. It's the best
32:06
Speaker 1: affordable option. There's subscriptions that you can get like form
32:09
Speaker 1: Form has actually been a really great one for me,
32:11
Speaker 1: which is by the Sammy's Sammy Clark. I love the Sammy's,
32:15
Speaker 1: They're so sweet. Anyways, their platform is amazing for someone
32:19
Speaker 1: that's looking for and that home workout that's a bit
32:21
Speaker 1: more affordable. I think the subscription to using it is
32:27
Speaker 1: like I think it's like one hundred bucks for the year,
32:29
Speaker 1: which is literally nothing compared to gym memberships. The average
32:33
Speaker 1: gym membership, I would say, is like, what one hundred
32:35
Speaker 1: dollars a month? One hundred and fifty dollars a month.
32:38
Speaker 1: I mean, pilates is absurd. I'm going to tell you
32:40
Speaker 1: right now. I pay way too much for my Plate studio.
32:42
Speaker 1: But I love Plates and I just shut my eyes
32:46
Speaker 1: when it comes out to my bank account. But I
32:48
Speaker 1: personally love investing in it because it really has changed
32:51
Speaker 1: my body. It's changed my life. I find it's the
32:53
Speaker 1: best movement for my body specifically, but low impact workouts
32:57
Speaker 1: have been just my kind of workout. But I think
33:00
Speaker 1: investing in it has been the most life changing thing
33:03
Speaker 1: for me because I feel so much more motivated. I
33:05
Speaker 1: feel so much more focused. I enjoy getting out of
33:08
Speaker 1: the house. I have friends through my pilates classes. Now.
33:11
Speaker 1: I recently got a membership at Oxygen, which I've been
33:14
Speaker 1: loving so all in all, I think getting a gym
33:16
Speaker 1: membership is one hundred percent worth the hype. This next
33:19
Speaker 1: one is kind of random, but I do think it's
33:21
Speaker 1: made a huge difference.
33:22
Speaker 2: Is my dice in air wrap?
33:23
Speaker 1: I actually don't know what I would do without my
33:25
Speaker 1: dice In Air, rap like it has really changed the game.
33:28
Speaker 1: When it comes to blow drying my hair. I feel
33:30
Speaker 1: like it's fast drying, minimizes heat damage. It's great for
33:34
Speaker 1: styling your hair effortlessly. I personally don't find I'm the
33:37
Speaker 1: best at styling my hair when it comes to just
33:39
Speaker 1: a normal blow dryer and a round brush. I was
33:42
Speaker 1: never able to get that blowout look with a normal
33:45
Speaker 1: blow dryer. So when I invested in the dic In,
33:47
Speaker 1: I feel like it actually gave that blowout look. And
33:50
Speaker 1: just the fact that there's so many tools involved with
33:53
Speaker 1: the dice In, it just allows you to style your
33:55
Speaker 1: hair in so many different ways, and it just makes
33:57
Speaker 1: it so much easier, Whereas, if you know, I use
34:00
Speaker 1: a regular blow dryer, I wouldn't be able to achieve
34:02
Speaker 1: the look that I wanted to achieve. My sister ended
34:05
Speaker 1: up getting the Shark, which is kind of the dupe
34:07
Speaker 1: to the dice In one. It's still, you know, a
34:09
Speaker 1: bit pricier, but it's still half the price of the
34:12
Speaker 1: dice In, and my sister loves it same technique, it
34:16
Speaker 1: has different attachments and it gives that same overall blowout look.
34:20
Speaker 1: So she loves it. She's so happy that she actually
34:23
Speaker 1: invested in it because it's been a complete game changer
34:26
Speaker 1: for her hair.
34:27
Speaker 2: And I've been telling her this for years.
34:29
Speaker 1: I'm like, bro, you need to invest in your hair
34:32
Speaker 1: tool because it will change your life. Like she was
34:34
Speaker 1: buying so many random things off Amazon. She was like, Okay,
34:38
Speaker 1: I'm going to try the thermal brush. Okay, I'm going
34:40
Speaker 1: to try the Revlon brush. Okay, I'm going to try this.
34:42
Speaker 1: I'm like, trust me, get the Shark or get the
34:44
Speaker 1: Dcon and it will change your life. She finally listened
34:47
Speaker 1: to me, and it's changed her life, and I'm like,
34:49
Speaker 1: you're welcome.
34:49
Speaker 2: Thank me later.
34:51
Speaker 1: So anyways, it could be a good gift just to
34:53
Speaker 1: think about, maybe for Christmas if you don't have, you know,
34:56
Speaker 1: the funds to financially get it right now.
34:59
Speaker 2: But it's something to think.
35:00
Speaker 1: About because I do think it will be a long
35:02
Speaker 1: lasting tool and it's worth the investment. I've had my
35:05
Speaker 1: Dyson now for almost five years to put in the
35:08
Speaker 1: grand scheme of things, and.
35:09
Speaker 2: I love her so much and.
35:12
Speaker 1: She's still working and yeah, anyways, I love it so
35:15
Speaker 1: much and I use it literally every single week. Other
35:18
Speaker 1: things that I have invested in would be supplements, and
35:21
Speaker 1: I think the two supplements that I've been taking consistently
35:23
Speaker 1: that I do think work are the natural fal hair
35:27
Speaker 1: vitamins or hair supplements for hair growth. I have started
35:30
Speaker 1: to notice a big difference. I've mentioned that before, just
35:33
Speaker 1: a lot of d shedding, a lot of growth coming
35:35
Speaker 1: in on my scalp, which is really reassuring. Overall, I
35:38
Speaker 1: think if you take supplements consistently, you will see results.
35:42
Speaker 1: Another supplement that I started recently taking is Array. They
35:46
Speaker 1: have a d bloat supplement and I really wasn't sure
35:49
Speaker 1: if it was going to work, to be honest, but
35:51
Speaker 1: I got it recently in a PR package. And when
35:54
Speaker 1: I consume too much dairy, I think a lot of
35:56
Speaker 1: people can agree to this if they have dairy sensitivity.
35:58
Speaker 1: Like me, I get really really bloated, and I'm like, hey,
36:01
Speaker 1: I need to take something to make me feel skinny again,
36:06
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I took it and
36:08
Speaker 1: the next morning, I'm not even joking, it was insane. Anyways,
36:12
Speaker 1: Like a few hours later, the bloating was completely gone,
36:16
Speaker 1: and I was literally shocked because I've never seen a
36:18
Speaker 1: supplement work so well to be honest. So the brand's
36:21
Speaker 1: called Array. I only take it whenever I'm feeling really
36:24
Speaker 1: bloated from again consuming dairy or whatever the case may be.
36:27
Speaker 1: But oh my god, guys, the most wholesome thing. My
36:32
Speaker 1: neighbor is just running by me right now while I'm
36:35
Speaker 1: recording this episode, and she literally told me that she's
36:38
Speaker 1: been really wanting to get into running again and she
36:40
Speaker 1: invested in running shoes. She was asking me about running
36:42
Speaker 1: shoes I have. So the fact I'm recording this episode
36:44
Speaker 1: and I just saw her running, that just made me
36:46
Speaker 1: so happy. Anyways, go her look at her achieving her goals.
36:50
Speaker 1: That was literally so wholesome. Anyways, as I was saying,
36:53
Speaker 1: this bloating supplement really did work, and it's definitely something
36:57
Speaker 1: that I take the odd time when I feel like
36:59
Speaker 1: I need it. And it's nice to know that there's
37:00
Speaker 1: options out there like that that can help with situations
37:04
Speaker 1: like that when it comes to bloating. But a few
37:07
Speaker 1: other things that people talk about that I think are
37:09
Speaker 1: game changers that I personally need to get into my
37:12
Speaker 1: routine consistently, one of them being collagen, whether I'm taking
37:17
Speaker 1: a pill or some type of powder that I can
37:19
Speaker 1: include into my coffee or my smoothies, whatever the case
37:22
Speaker 1: may be. I need to get a collagen powder because
37:24
Speaker 1: I do think if you're consistent with that, you are
37:26
Speaker 1: going to see really good results from that, along with
37:29
Speaker 1: a probiotic or a tripiotic or prebiotic. I have a few, honestly,
37:34
Speaker 1: but I just feel like some of them don't always
37:36
Speaker 1: work well with my stomach. So I just need to
37:39
Speaker 1: figure out maybe an ingredient that my stomach is not
37:43
Speaker 1: sitting well with in those probiotics and probiotics. That way,
37:46
Speaker 1: when I can purchase the right one, it will be
37:49
Speaker 1: worth the investment. So anyways, moral story is that some
37:53
Speaker 1: supplements I do think are worth it. Some are the
37:56
Speaker 1: placebo like I don't really love the Lemmy ones. I
38:00
Speaker 1: think the only one that I personally find that works
38:01
Speaker 1: really well is the Lemmy sleep. I really find those
38:04
Speaker 1: ones work. The Lemme z Blow I didn't really find work,
38:07
Speaker 1: Like the array one worked really well. What other Lemmy one.
38:11
Speaker 2: Have I tried.
38:11
Speaker 1: I've tried the Glow Nails and Skin one. I can't
38:16
Speaker 1: remember because it was like two years ago, but I
38:18
Speaker 1: don't know if that fully worked or not. But I
38:20
Speaker 1: will say that some of the lemmy products work. Some
38:23
Speaker 1: of them don't. There's some like let me focus all that,
38:26
Speaker 1: I haven't tried those to be honest, so I can't
38:27
Speaker 1: give my honest opinion on that. But I know there's
38:30
Speaker 1: always going to be a hit and miss with supplements.
38:32
Speaker 1: But those are the ones I've been taking, the ones
38:34
Speaker 1: that I've said, and ones that I personally think are
38:37
Speaker 1: worth it. So those are things that I personally think
38:40
Speaker 1: are worth investing in for the summer season. Just a
38:43
Speaker 1: few things that I think are worth your money and
38:46
Speaker 1: just some things that I'm doing to make myself feel
38:49
Speaker 1: a bit more confident, a bit more beautiful for the
38:51
Speaker 1: summer season. But I hope you guys enjoyed this episode.
