It's been a sad week, and I'm still processing things | EP. 15

0:00
welcome back to another episode of catching up with Katie so today we are going to do some questions from Facebook
0:06
and Instagram and YouTube from y'all some of you have just given us some topics we did ask for nonanimal topics
0:14
for this video um but then we just you know we like to catch up on what's going on with the farm which this past week
0:20
was very sad unfortunately um we did kick off cing season and we had you know
0:28
lots of babies which youall will be seeing here here on YouTube but we also had a loss um of bubbles so bubbles is
0:35
one of my goats she is my second goat ever actually so she's like one of the ogs
0:42
and not quite sure what has happened quite yet because we did take take her
0:47
for a necropsy um to have her diagnosed to see what happened in case it is
0:53
something that I could have prevented or you know I can take measures for my other goats um that I could learn from
1:00
or it might give me a little peace of mind if it was something that I couldn't have prevented so we are really really
1:06
sad about that that was yesterday and honestly I'm cried out so we're not going to harp on that too much in this
1:12
video but that's pretty much the significant thing that happened this week
1:17
unfortunately nothing else I mean we did ixie we took the Mayors and did ixie
1:22
Ginger came home from the vet all is well with that um yeah I think that's
1:28
that's the big thing a lot of people a lot of the same questions were about like your makeup and your hair so for
1:35
the first part you can just say like what products you use what products are your favorite kind of like why your hair
1:42
looks so good my hair so I have it slicked back today with a product called
1:48
oil from my scalp um from not washing it for 8 days so if you thought that I had
1:54
purposefully slicked it back um thank you and hold on to that keep thinking
1:59
that we uh we've just been so busy the last few days that I've meant to have my hair
2:06
done so many times this week and it just never happened but it will get washed tonight cuz the cattle sale is this
2:12
weekend and we have the dinner tomorrow and all that good stuff so but generally
2:18
I mean I feel like I used to be a lot more high maintenance than I am now um
2:24
when I was learning like my makeup style and learning about what products to use
2:30
and things like that it was in that 2014 like matte full coverage era the
2:38
square eyebrows the square eyebrows like the triangle of of concealer uh baking
2:46
like and it was kind of okay I don't like to look back at Super up close pictures but it was like my eyebrows
2:54
were definitely like blocky but they never went super thick which was good
3:00
um I kind of got away with it because I was 20 you know not 28 and so being 18
3:08
to 20 when I was learning all that you know I don't have like a single eye
3:13
crease and so when I baked and like had all this baking meaning you took powder
3:18
and like just smashed it into your face um it didn't look as like Creasy and and
3:25
thick I I keep catching him like doing his little to the to the camera to the
3:30
Nate cam the Nate cam just in case the Nate cam um so we do want to do a video
3:37
soon where I do your makeup while we're talking and I won't do 2014 makeup I'll
3:42
do like 2024 glam makeup but okay um cuz
3:47
I feel like I have evolved in a better form so like today for example and like
3:53
I feel like what I'm wearing today is a good example of what I like if I do my makeup on a daily basis now this is what
3:58
I do and it is so much less than it used to be yeah I used to you know do every step every day and
4:05
have a full face of makeup every single day beat and that's not bad it's just that was what I really enjoyed doing
4:12
back then but now like I very much more focus on having like my actual skin
4:18
looking better versus just covering it with full found full coverage foundation and luckily like my hormones in my you
4:25
know later 20s have evened out so I don't have as much acne as I used to um so I can get away with stuff but um
4:33
generally like today I have pixie blush on top of
4:40
moisturizer uh I took a little bit of milk uh bronzer and did it like right
4:46
here and right here little on my nose I use the like I just use the same products all the time now instead of
4:53
having like a variety that I'm having to get the whatever's new out like I just I know what I like I have the Anastasia
4:59
Brow Wiz brows um I like the Fenty fly liner for my liner I do drugstore lashes these
5:06
days I mean every now and then I'll treat myself to some Lily lashes but generally like some ardell's or you know
5:14
like just wispy lashes um trying to think like I really like the Nyx juicy
5:21
you know lip stuff I don't really like matte anymore um I feel like in my also later 20s
5:28
versus early 20s I don't really care as much about the name brand if it's like a good product I used to want like
5:33
whatever was the newest thing and whatever you know and some of my products are nice and then some of them
5:40
are drugstore it's like a very good mix um like my go-to base
5:45
for my skin for having it look nice and like hydrated is the Bobbi Brown face
5:52
base and the grillon gold those are both very expensive things but they last a
5:58
freaking long time and I feel like I've cut down on like what else I use you know like I don't like I don't have on
6:03
any concealer or Foundation right now and I feel like it looks pretty
6:09
decent ites it looks good you have good skin thank you you want to cut it off
6:15
and wear it yes I don't have great skin but leather
6:25
face actually you know what we should do we should do makeup for the video Nate should do our
6:32
makeup cuz you remember Nate said he he kind of knows how to do makeup he says he knows how to do makeup and he can't
6:39
do eyeliner though one gu he was like I have to have all of these tools in my
6:44
belt because if I'm producing a movie or a video and the girl comes in and she
6:49
doesn't look good you think I can't fix it for her I well I can but not the to
6:56
be fair the eyeliner that we had to shoot that video was a blunt crayon it
7:02
it was I us to uh liquid okay so well I
7:07
think we had both but um I'm pretty sure you brought a liquid liner it was dried out that was Macy's yeah I lost
7:15
it sorry I think he's lying I don't think he actually knows how to do makeup
7:20
and he just has to be good at everything so I do know I know okay we might have
7:26
to test that out maybe I do your makeup and and he does my makeup now in that video I'm not as good as you that's for
7:34
certain but I'm better than you might think I would be I thought you were going to say but
7:41
I'm better than you definitely better than Abigail okay
7:47
I will say I feel like you started doing a little bit more this past year because
7:52
I remember when we first met and we went to Congress like a month after meeting
7:58
and we were there for 5 days together in a hotel room um cuz I was like oh shoot
8:04
the one thing I forgot was my setting powder and you're like I just got my first setting powder ever and it was
8:09
terrible it was but but I you know like I feel like you
8:14
didn't really wear a whole lot and you still don't wear you like you're the clean girl look yeah which I like it looks I don't do I think it just seems
8:22
like that cuz I don't do eye makeup I only do mascara yeah but you I
8:27
feel like now and I like it so so much better now the trend with makeup and I'm
8:33
like why were we not always doing this is to look like your like your skin to look like your radiant skin it's not
8:40
just creating a mask with full coverage everything and matte and like you know like that's what I am more focused on
8:47
these days than eye looks yeah I'll still throw on a little glitter every now and then on my eyes if we're doing
8:52
an actual full makeup look but generally speaking I just try to make my skin look better but that's also probably because
8:59
I'm 28 instead of 20 and so my skin doesn't naturally look amazing anymore and I have to it looks pretty good thank
9:07
you so what what skin care products do you use then you know honestly and this
9:14
is terrible I don't do anything these days I don't I barely wash my face right now
9:20
when I do I go through stages because I have a lot of tatcha stuff M
9:25
because I really like their moisturizer I really like their um cleansers and
9:31
stuff like that um it just feels very clean you know it doesn't feel very heavy or or like abrasive but I'm
9:39
terrible right now I go through phases I go through the phase where I do seven steps at night and then I go through
9:45
where I'm like I don't touch my face actually I use a Maybelline makeup wipe and call it a day so I'm in the not
9:52
doing anything phase unfortunately but I'm also eating better and drinking so much more water which I feel like is
10:00
yeah um well sponsored by
10:08
Stanley I wish Stan I'll get a free one that would
10:13
be nice if you want us up but but yeah I feel like that has a big part of it too is like I'm just so much more hydrated
10:19
and less inflamed by eating better because I've said this on Tik Tok so I'm
10:25
like 35ish pounds down right now from uh June and so that's helped out a lot with
10:31
my skin I think yeah just like like we ate pizza today for the first time and
10:37
forever because we got it for everybody down at the barn and I already feel it in my stomach it was so good not feeling
10:43
good it was so good I could eat more and I had three I had two pieces I had three
10:50
I had to kind of stop myself I was like she was good Katy it's good self-control yeah um so what about hair you didn't
10:58
really me honestly feel like the fact that I don't wash it very much is a part
11:06
of why it's looks good um I mean I wash it about once a week I would say that is
11:15
do you feel like if you averaged it out
11:21
over a year it'd be once a week cuz sometimes it's like you know I have a couple things going on I have to wash it
11:27
and then sometimes I go two weeks like it is what it is um people are going to think that's disgusting but I mean my
11:34
hair is so long and thick that when you see it on top of my head
11:40
and a bun we're over a week like there's no way we're under a week when I'm doing
11:46
that um which has been like this entire week we're going on like a
11:51
good I'm at a week and a half right now I'm at like 16 days oh dear I yours
11:59
never looks greasy of not washing your hair do you not taking a shower are you
12:06
serious no I was about to ask wait so y'all still take showers yes you don't
12:12
wash your hair every time you get in the shower no it's Castle well for me like it takes my my
12:20
slowest shower is 30 minutes because I wash my hair twice
12:25
I've learned I've learned with how thick my hair is and my specific scalp I have
12:31
to wash it twice I wash mine twice too yeah um and then I like to let my like
12:37
conditioner set and usually if I'm doing a hair wash I have like I do a mask but
12:42
I don't have to do a mask for my quickest shower but you know a hair mask or a face mask a hair mask what is that
12:49
like you get like I like to do hydrating masks so you put it on leave it on for like 15 minutes so it's just like
12:55
conditioner yeah but it's like a little little extra okay you do it
13:00
first so I like to do things like that it definitely needs like I've got some split ends going I definitely need to
13:06
get it trimmed um and we can get what the people think about my
13:12
idea yeah so when Jonathan first met me I was blonde like very very blonde I
13:19
don't think I want to go blonde blonde but I think it's time for a little Dimension like this is very close to my
13:26
natural color I kind of want to this is okay I don't want to sound like
13:32
that girl who's like my hair is just so healthy that it doesn't hold a curl but like honestly ever since I've gone back
13:39
to my natural color and not had any bleach in it and um very little heat use and stuff like that it is very healthy
13:47
and whenever I try to do my hair now it is very difficult it doesn't hold anything it is like I I I always end up
13:54
just straightening it because it's easier um so I kind of want to go do a
14:00
little Balayage or something like that uh mainly to damage it so that I can curl it
14:06
again I don't think that's a I don't think that's a bad thing uh cuz I do miss curling it and
14:12
like it doing big big hair and going into the winter cuz during the summer I
14:17
don't but during the winter like I like to do my hair and stuff so uh we might might might I have a little bleach in it
14:24
here soon I don't know do a little cut it it's like yeah my layers are gone would you do like the bangs not like
14:31
full bangs but like would you do more face frame I think I do some C some curtain
14:37
bangs um so I don't know I don't know when I'm going to do that but yeah I use
14:42
p uh pureology on my hair um but like I said I don't wash it
14:48
that often so my shampoo and conditioner last forever
14:53
um I don't do anything special I don't think I think hair is one of those things that's super genetic mhm
15:01
unfortunately it's just naturally just like how it is Perfect Skin perfect
15:08
hair I I I don't like to be like look how like knotted it is right now I pulled it out of a bun and threw it in
15:15
this nasty ponytail because I didn't want to have in a bun again and it just is like that
15:21
[Music] um it's just like that um I you know I
15:28
have a lot of of other things I struggle with like I struggle very heavily with weight and with other things with my
15:35
body image so I think I can have the hair it's fine but also yeah like like
15:41
the these issues like my hairline is pulling back probably from all these tight ponytails but maybe same receding
15:49
hairline pull the hat off oh no kidding it's not bad he's growing it
15:57
back out though I am growing it back out until like mullet yeah like party Nate
16:02
is coming back we're on the return it it could be a lot worse it could be worse
16:08
yeah I could I could be balding exactly which I'm not and you're 30 so that's
16:13
pretty impressive most yeah yeah yeah I think we're I think we're in it for the long haul but Jonathan's about to be 31
16:21
his is very much more receding versus balding yeah um I I've always heard that
16:28
you get your hair from your mother's
16:33
side if you're a guy I've always heard I've always heard Mom's Dad mom's dad
16:38
well my mom's dad had a head of hair up until his death my mom's dad was bald oh
16:44
well you're in for it but like not like shaved head bald
16:50
but my kids in the future it would be my dad right and my dad has a head of hair
16:56
yeah and my Pap has a head of hair yeah if the legend is true bypast Jonathan's
17:03
jeans yeah my grandpa tell is here you want to talk more about your college
17:12
experience yeah I guess I'm fine with it now it was a sore subject for a really long time um so I went to lipsum
17:20
University which I went to lipsum from like sixth grade through college um it's
17:27
a private Christian acad and then they have their University on the same
17:32
campus and so I went there I I was very much wanting to go to Auburn because I
17:37
really wanted to be on the Auburn Equestrian Team um and at one point I wanted to be a vet and then I just found
17:43
out I was not smart enough to be a vet um with math and science but I decided
17:50
instead of doing the Equestrian Team route that at the time I still had my show horse and I would rather stay close
17:58
to home to stay where I could still ride and like go to hores shows and things
18:04
and so I did that I had a very good first year
18:10
I made really good grades first year very similar to high school and then
18:16
like met some of my best friends um like my roommate at my roommate Ashley is
18:21
like still a really really close friend of mine and like we were absolutely best friends and so made a lot of really good
18:28
life Tools in college but I would say at the time because this
18:35
was before social media this is before Jonathan this was before like
18:40
anything that is current in my life right now was in existence um I was very lost as
18:49
far as what I wanted to do who I thought I was because at the time I was very
18:55
much defined by like hor shows we were putting so much time and effort into
19:02
that that that was that was very much what my whole life revolved around and
19:09
so when I stepped away from the horor shows a little bit and was trying to just find like who I
19:15
was and what I wanted to do and reality set in a little bit of like at some
19:21
point daddy's not going to be paying your hores show Bill anymore at some point you're going to have to figure
19:27
your own stuff out and I did not want I mean I think being a I think being like a stay-at home mom is an exceptional job
19:34
I think it is so important but like at the time I didn't want to always rely on like a man taking care of me either and
19:41
so I did go to school for business um I didn't want I didn't want to just
19:49
you know kind of leave it up to somebody else to create what I wanted for me but when I but when I went into it
19:56
for business I I still have like a plan and looking back I should have done
20:02
marketing but I went the management route because my family did start the company my dad owns
20:10
and runs so my great-grandfather started the business and then my Pat took it
20:18
over and then my dad after him and while it wasn't like a shoe in that family is
20:25
what takes it over it was always open that if I wanted to go to work there and work my way up I could
20:33
um but but it was it was just like a really conflicting time of like like I knew that was there but I could not see
20:41
myself doing it but I also didn't know what other option I had that would
20:46
fulfill me and so I started doing like a little bit of freelance makeup stuff and
20:54
like leaning into like other passions that were outside of horses and then when it come to sophomore year
21:01
um things didn't go like better they kind of went worse so I like got into
21:07
Greek life I got into a sorority at that small of a school if you're not in a
21:12
sorority or like a fraternity there was like nothing to do it was very small and so like all of the events all the inter
21:18
mural Sports all like everything was kind of like tied in with Greek life and so I
21:24
did that and I'm glad I did it like it was it was a good experience but I kind of like met a guy he was
21:34
terrible I do you know college has a lot of like like talking about
21:41
college has a lot of I didn't honestly think we were going to Deep dive like this right now but I'm thinking about
21:47
the fact that I kind of have to to explain my college experience so I'm going to go ahead and give a little
21:53
trigger warning um in case you don't want to watch something that includes an
21:59
ed or depression or toxic relationships or things like that don't keep watching
22:06
um but I did I did start having a really unhealthy relationship with exercise and
22:13
food um I did start having a really bad relationship with the male attention I
22:21
did lose myself I think for a bit um
22:29
like very much after like a high school and middle school experience of not
22:36
having um your typical like male attention and not feeling very like confident in yourself and then like I
22:42
lost a bunch of weight and got very very skinny and very obsessive over it and
22:50
going through binge eating periods and then like very restrictive periods and
22:57
like my anxiety went through the roof my depression kind of which at the time I didn't even know I had depression like I
23:03
just wouldn't get out of bed and stopped going to class and started failing and
23:09
started neglecting everything like I don't even think my parents know about this part but at some points I was so
23:16
low that I was supposed to be going to horror shows and this is like
23:23
so also just entitled of me like I look back at what like I was so entitled or so so like spoiled that I had these
23:31
parents that were so supportive of me financially and emotionally that like
23:37
financially they're paying for me to be at College like I did have a scholarship but financially they're covering the rest of it so that I didn't have to have
23:43
a job during college and then they're also paying for me to go do this horse show and I'm sitting there like having a
23:48
wo as me or like a like I was had this like gigantic depressive episode where I
23:53
couldn't get out of bed and I was just like in turmoil over everything stacking up on top of me as far as school workor
24:00
and everything that was needed and like relationships and all the things and I got to the point where I would tell my
24:06
trainers oh hey I can't get off school I have a test can't come to this horror show until the weekend and I would tell
24:13
my parents oh yeah I've got like school or whatever and I would just not do anything for those days I didn't go to
24:19
class like I didn't you know like I I it was weird I look back and I don't understand it
24:25
still depression yeah like I look I still don't understand it yeah and like
24:31
would just SOB in my car in the parking lot like just feeling terrible over like
24:37
the choices I was making um and over my priorities and things but eventually
24:44
like you can't keep doing that without repercussions and eventually I got kicked
24:49
out um at the end of my sopore year they were like you can't come back
24:55
unfortunately and so I had to sit out a semester uh and I went
25:00
to uh a community college for a semester and then I went back and I was dating
25:07
Jonathan when I went back and I attempted to stay and like finish um but
25:15
at the time like I I was in a better head space I would say um I was a better
25:20
head space with food I was in a better cuz like in the midst of all that depression stuff I was eating like 400 calories a day and running 5 miles a day
25:27
or like like if I been J I would go run 8 miles at 2:00 a.m. in Green Hills how
25:34
I didn't get abducted I don't know um very
25:40
like punishment exercises to myself and like you know
25:47
um like I I remember I remember just being like absolutely gaunt looking in
25:52
my face and like in my like my ra came up to me it was like I I don't want to
25:59
be seeing your shoulders this pointy anymore like
26:05
what what can we do like and it was to the point like I didn't go home as much
26:10
because my mom was going to pull me out if I kept losing weight and like like it was
26:17
a it was not great um and in the midst of it you know boy trouble like it was
26:22
just like all these things like I feel like I kind of lived a very sheltered horse girl life up in until college and
26:29
then all of life's um possible troubles at that point not all of them but you
26:34
know like relationship issues eating issues
26:39
depression like the workload of school was more than I'd ever done because in
26:45
high school I was very much the person who did not have to study did not have to do anything and I just made good grades like that just came easy to me
26:52
which I feel like was to my detriment for college um and in the midst of it I didn't know what I wanted to do and I
26:58
had no like goal which I feel like was part of the problem I didn't know what I was working
27:05
towards I was just doing something because I knew I had to do it you know yeah and once I went back in junior
27:12
year I went back long enough to like like I took a little with my sorority
27:18
and you know did some stuff with that but um at the time social media started
27:23
kicking up and I had started doing the T TV show
27:29
and that's like I'm a little salty about the TV show because they like had
27:34
promised me like this whole Year's worth of filming and after I'd done the few
27:40
episodes that I did for season 3 I stayed out of college cuz I was like
27:46
this is a really cool opportunity I'm going to stay out of college and then they like ghosted me and then I wasn't
27:51
enrolled anymore and then I started working for my dad at the office so and
27:57
then I hated that so much like there was like a really dark period of my early
28:03
20s when I just honestly had no clue what I was supposed to do but also like in the most priv privileged way possible
28:10
you know like just because other people have other things going on doesn't mean
28:15
that yours are less important to you I know but it's like oh oh no you were sad
28:20
so you had a job waiting for you at your dad's office you know like it's I I have
28:26
these I don't know I just look back and I wanted to like
28:31
smack me and be like your problems aren't that bad shut up yeah is that how
28:37
you feel about me when I talk about my problems no not at all you just want to be like in 5 years this isn't going to
28:45
matter some things and sometimes I tell you that but no I you're still allowed
28:50
to feel things and like you're going through your experiences right now and I do not regret anything because I feel
28:57
like that's what put me where I am right now because had I not gotten out had I not gotten kicked out of school would I
29:04
have been open for that TV show and like that TV show even though it didn't work out gave me a lot of tools that I use
29:10
now you know and like a lot of really cool
29:16
um like I I met a lot of really cool people connections um had I not gotten
29:23
kicked out of college would I met Jonathan when I did yeah would you know I don't no yeah and so I don't regret
29:30
any of it but my college experience wasn't great and it wasn't my College's fault it was it was definitely like a
29:37
lot of self-inflicted issues but at the same time it also was like my first ever
29:43
experience with depression and which I've had very up and down a relationship with um and like the whole food thing
29:51
too like very up and down relationship with food where like I I've obviously been heavier
29:59
in the last few years and it's almost the opposite end of the
30:05
spectrum where I would be afraid if I started to like diet that I'd get back
30:11
into what I was doing where it was miserable like yeah like I
30:18
can remember cuz I'd always count my calories super carefully and I can
30:23
remember if we went somewhere and there wasn't like an option that I knew how much the calories were or if I allowed
30:30
myself to have like a milkshake or like a something that was super indulgent then I would like cry because
30:38
I felt so guilty or because I was so regretful and I would make everyone around me miserable with just because of
30:45
food just because of my relationship with it and so it was a lot easier
30:52
to ignore it like okay I'm just going to ignore my issue with food and I'm going
30:58
to eat what I want and that was fine for a while when you're younger and your metabolism is working but then I also
31:06
I've always kind of bouted with PCOS as well
31:11
and like I've always had issues that go along with PCOS but probably when I hit
31:17
like 24 25 is when they started really getting worse and harder to deal with
31:24
and eating bad food and inflam inventory food and like it then gets to where you
31:31
can't just diet for 2 weeks and 5 lbs comes off or you can't you know it's like a lot harder to just like regulate
31:37
yourself and so then it just kind of compounded on top of itself and then when you get to the point where you're
31:43
like bigger than your boots and bigger than your whatever then you're not riding as much with which then you're
31:49
not exercising as much and then you're so there's like a bit of a spiral in different are we just got into a whole
31:55
lot of other areas than just College college just sparked this whole thing anyway yeah
32:01
oops it's okay I'm enjoying not having to talk so much um I I'm sorry I didn't
32:11
mean to do that apologize I don't really know where I just ended it I I think I spiraled I
32:17
think yesterday losing my goat and then like I don't know I'm in my feels a little bit um Abigail we should you
32:24
haven't barely talked in this so tell us a little bit about your college experence
32:33
no for real yeah um okay well I don't want to make
32:41
it like super long like I did I don't want to just like ramble
32:46
forever sorry I didn't mean to it just it it brought up so many things that all
32:51
tied into college but it's good it's okay
32:59
um I went to MTSU uh when I
33:05
applied I had my major is nursing you didn't tell me that i' I've
33:12
I've been on many different paths I I like get really um excited about one
33:19
thing and I like over obsess over it for a few weeks and then I try it it's not fun and I move on
33:26
to the next thing and I and so I thought oh nursing that'll be that'll be easy
33:31
easy not easy like for as in the schooling but easy is just like that's
33:38
something that like I can pick and I know exactly what I'll do after mhm like
33:45
with like business it's a path right it's a hard path it is a path and you know exactly what you're doing and yeah
33:52
um and then like as soon as I like before I even made my schedule I changed my major to animal science and so that's
33:59
what I was my first year and then I did honors and it was terrible and it was
34:05
really hard and I quit that um and
34:10
then I changed my major to event planning because I decided that I wanted
34:15
to be a wedding planner and um I have not heard of any of these so that lasted
34:22
for one semester that was my sophomore uh so that was my third semester in college and then after one
34:30
semester I changed it back to animal science so the end of my sophomore year I was back to animal science and then
34:37
going into my junior year I changed my major to business um and then I actually stuck
34:44
with that the rest of the time um
34:51
but that's just I mean I still don't know like I don't I don't have a certain
34:56
thing that I'm like that's what I I know that that's what I want and that that's what I'm like working towards cuz with
35:03
my degree I can I could do a lot with it but it's not stuff I want to do it's like I don't
35:08
want to work in an office I don't like I don't want to sit behind a desk all day
35:14
um I like I have so many different interests but I don't it's hard for me to just narrow in on one and be like
35:21
this is what I want to do and so I'm but yeah that was
35:28
so those are all the majors I had um I don't know what else do you
35:34
want to know about col about my college experience I don't know what like
35:40
non-schooling what non-schooling skills do you think you learned there like what what do you think you brought from it I
35:47
became a lot more social I think mhm um
35:52
I'm still like not the best at like
35:58
meeting people or like I don't know I feel like when
36:04
it's I don't know how to speak right now um I made a lot of friends my like
36:12
sophomore year I started working on campus and I made a lot of friends and I had never like I don't know like in in high school
36:19
I feel like you just have friends and you don't really have to like well not everyone
36:24
um but like the cool people no no um so I don't know I just it was kind of like
36:31
you just went to class with people and like you just kind of naturally were friends and like you didn't really have to try and then it was harder in college
36:40
when you like don't know people and you have to actually make an effort and be like do you want to like hang out I don't know so I met a lot of people that
36:48
way and that's where most of my friends came from now
36:55
and I yeah I used to have really bad like social anxiety like I wouldn't go to the store by myself I wouldn't leave
37:02
like my apartment when I first moved up here I wouldn't go like get groceries I don't know I don't know what
37:08
changed I just I guess I got around people more and started being more social and now I'll go to the store by
37:14
myself I feel like you've gotten so much more out of your shell even the last
37:19
year because I mean we go out of town quite often and you meet a lot of people
37:26
um I mean not you might not be the one talking the whole time but you know like
37:31
you seem so much more comfortable I am I don't know what flipped your your frontal lobe is
37:38
starting to close as well you're getting me that age yeah I don't like
37:44
overanalyze every single thing that I'm saying now before I like a conversation
37:49
with someone I worked at my dad's office I worked like I was on the phone quite often and I I had a lot of anxiety over
37:57
that and it was kind of in the depths of like that you know depression anxiety questioning myself low self-esteem kind
38:03
of deal and so he like threw me to the wolves on the phone and he was like oh
38:09
well you'll get over it by the end of the day and I hate talking phone prob I've
38:15
probably messed up so much that day I mean I got better obviously I worked there for a year and a half yeah um but
38:21
yeah I I still like I bet if Vicky I bet if bet if Vicki who I worked
38:28
under at the office I bet if she watched this episode she'd be like I had to fix
38:34
so many things every single day behind her because I'm so
38:39
techn technologically challenged and so a lot of it was so I did I was the
38:45
receptionist but I also um had to do some like it was we called it the
38:51
scanner list and it was basically in the warehouse they would scan in all these
38:56
items because because they were part of what my dad does and what the business
39:02
does is they have a company that buys out liquidating companies and then we
39:07
resell and so it's a lot of Auto Parts like mainly Auto Parts and so I worked
39:14
in the warehouse a little bit too when I was younger so I would go out there and like I'd be standing I worked there for a little while um so I remember when I
39:21
was scanning out there was a lot of windshield wipers or um spark plugs and
39:27
and like things like that I mean you scan the same thing over and over again and so the scanner list I would have to
39:33
go through the scanner list that they scanned make sure it matched what was in our system and like do that and I
39:40
there's also a guy named Cody that worked in there I bet behind me they like I bet they absolutely hated me not
39:48
because I we had a great time like I I've loved working with them as far as like personalities but I bet like I
39:56
think you I always wonder cuz I'm like I thought I did a good job but I'm like did I I don't know maybe they just
40:02
didn't tell me yeah there was um somebody asked if you had ever done an
40:08
escape room and I was laughing at that cuz I was just picturing like all of us in an escape room and should and like
40:14
the yelling and the arguing that would happen between like you and Nate and you and
40:19
Jonathan oh it would be do escape room I have so we went um it's been a long time
40:26
we did it with a like a group like it was a date like a group date and I I
40:33
very much was like the person in the group project that didn't do anything when I went I'm pretty sure just
40:38
observing yeah we should go to a will they let you film in like haunted houses
40:44
and stuff uh oh my gosh I don't do haunted houses you I'm not going in a
40:50

41:10
it why when the when the chainsaw cranks up no absolutely not that seems like
41:16
something that would be fitting for you sounds sounds like a great idea for
41:22
you that's Nate's new thing he puts for you at the end of sentences and it makes it so
