00:00:05 Speaker 1: Hello, gorgeous people. We are back at the Bonus. How do you feel about it? 00:00:11 Speaker 2: We just back the boner. 00:00:14 Speaker 1: We're just doing a simple Q and A. There are times where I have like a list, Yeah, I have like epic Bonus episodes that I want to do, and then it's the night before we're supposed to record, and I'm like, oh my gosh, there's so much to be done in so little time. 00:00:32 Speaker 2: A Q and A is what We're beautiful? How can we make it others people's work? 00:00:37 Speaker 1: Can I tell you something? 00:00:38 Speaker 2: What? 00:00:39 Speaker 1: Because I know sometimes you go into the comments section and people can be really mean there, but there were so many people that wrote in to just simply say how handsome and kind you are? 00:00:51 Speaker 2: Really, Yeah, there's I I steer clear from comments. DMS. Yes have been rude and it scarred me, so I don't go in there. But I have seen like a couple people reach out all that birthday like you know, DMS. I want to say thank you for and you have an amazing like pod and group of people, and I am happy to be in this little pod with you guys, And thank you to everybody who said that I was nice and the handsome you're lying, I'll take it. 00:01:26 Speaker 1: I don't think they had to lie. No one can see this stuff except us. 00:01:29 Speaker 2: Thanks for not lying. 00:01:30 Speaker 1: I agree with you, though. The comment section gets freaking wild. So the other day, when the Valley trailer had dropped, I was like not expecting myself to appear in any capacity because I filmed four, maybe five times, and that's before it even goes into editing. And I was just supposed to be like not even a friend of, like less than a friend of like just the pregnant girl who just pops. 00:01:59 Speaker 2: In right the doormat that got in. 00:02:04 Speaker 1: So it drops and Brittany posts it and tags me, and I'm just like, you know what, I've had an exhausting day, Like I'm just gonna venture into the comment section, and it was a good time to do so because I wasn't affected the way I normally am. So this this Valley trailer was very dramatic, right, just. 00:02:22 Speaker 2: To let you know, I see and forgive me if I get his name wrong. Jesse, yeah, Michelle's X So I just see his picture pop up and then your voice yeah, and I'm going, isn't that my sister? And then it just pans in and I go that's my sister. Oh fuck, we're back at it again. 00:02:41 Speaker 1: So I felt very exposed. There were a lot of people that were like, please not Laala. It was so good until I saw Lala and I was thinking about it, and I'm like, okay, out of this entire trailer. So much shit happened, and the fact that there were multiple people so fixated the fact that I was in and I was like, I'm finally. 00:03:02 Speaker 2: Not Michelle throwing a so much gallon of water from the other side of the room. 00:03:07 Speaker 1: By the way, not the first time she's done that, because the precision and distance, No, she is. 00:03:14 Speaker 2: I saw that, and I was like, you were already hot, but that accuracy from baby calmed down. Well when you don't instead of rush Rushchelle. No. But like you said, there's so many things, even like I loved Jack's and I think he's terrible, terrible husband, great father, terrible husband. 00:03:41 Speaker 1: Very good Jacks, very good Jack. 00:03:45 Speaker 2: I love it so the Q and A. 00:03:47 Speaker 1: Yes, the comment section is scary, but I did get a lot of people that wrote in like. 00:03:51 Speaker 2: Well, do we want to tease what we're doing mayhem? 00:03:56 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. I was so excited about the ridings that I almost did. 00:04:00 Speaker 2: So everybody, we have started a little march Mayhem of our own, and we're gonna do it this. We have eight I've picked my eight bravoeleberties. Law has picked her eight, and we are going to start it at the sweet Celebrity sixteen named GG named it. So I have picked mine. We will get into why I picked mine. She will get into why she picked hers. And now there will be a bracket and voting, and I need the voters vote me and my team. 00:04:40 Speaker 1: Oh no, are we gonna have it so that they know whose team is who's because I'm for sure losing. 00:04:46 Speaker 2: Do we do it like that? Because if that's the case, then yes, because I will win. I don't know, maybe you'll win. 00:04:51 Speaker 1: Good shot you do. But I have epic sweetelebrities that I've added too. 00:04:57 Speaker 2: Yeah. I kind of want people to vote off this Sweeteleberties. Yeah so yeah. So we'll have them seated, so each Bravoleberty will be playing one another and it is up to you and your vote. 00:05:12 Speaker 1: This is when you really see who messes with who, because sometimes it's an unpopular opinion. Right, You're like looking at socials and you're like, oh, I really do not like that bravolebrity. Guess what, no one's gonna know who you voted for except me. 00:05:28 Speaker 2: I know we can call them out. We got a little blackmail on them. 00:05:30 Speaker 1: And you know, you kind of have to go back in time because sometimes, you know, a lot of these Bravo celebrities or Sweeteleberties in this case, they have shows airing right now and they could have had great seasons and then maybe this one there's season eight hitting. You know, like maybe if you were looking at me, season ten, you were messing with me hardcore comes season eleven, you wanted to see me dead and buried in your backyard. 00:05:55 Speaker 2: Isn't it funny how we all switch up? Yeah? I hate you, I love you. I love you. I know. But here's the thing that I did hear tell me you can't hate something if you don't love it. 00:06:09 Speaker 1: Well, Hello, haters are just confused appreciators. Bang banger? All right, should we bop it? 00:06:16 Speaker 2: Yes, let's get in. I'm going to. 00:06:18 Speaker 1: Start it off with you T T. Where did Easton get the name? 00:06:21 Speaker 2: T T T T? Yeah? 00:06:24 Speaker 1: There was one K that I called you tit? Do you remember back in Utah? 00:06:28 Speaker 2: Yeah? 00:06:29 Speaker 1: And then it went to Teeter. 00:06:31 Speaker 2: Yeah. I almost want to say, like T T came from like London, like that era. 00:06:36 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you're right, yeah, T, So it came from London, our older brother's daughter. 00:06:42 Speaker 2: I honestly, the first person I ever remember calling me TT is Sheryl. Honestly, and there we go. 00:06:48 Speaker 1: That's London's mom. 00:06:49 Speaker 2: Yea. And I could be very wrong, but I really do think that's where it came from. 00:06:54 Speaker 1: I think you're like spot on actually. 00:06:56 Speaker 2: But yeah, TT, that's where it came from. 00:06:59 Speaker 1: I know you. I've previously dealt with severe anxiety. How do you get through it? 00:07:04 Speaker 2: Me? 00:07:05 Speaker 1: I mean both of us, how do you get through your anxiety? You're on meds right now? 00:07:09 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm on meds and I have doctor checkups every three months to see if everything you know is still going well if I need to make changes. But I will say I love my doctor. He put me on prescriptions that help being sober. I will say, is easy to go in and be honest and actually get help that you need. So I'm on amazing medication. But every time I get anxiety, I need cold water, cold air, and I just need to breathe and I have to be alone, I can't hear noises. I have to dismiss, walk somewhere, breathe and just take a sec for myself to breathe through it. And then after that I usually will close my eyes and just you know, have a mental prayer fore you know, ten seconds, and then usually I can reach. 00:08:00 Speaker 1: But I think conquering the art of breathing is definitely something that's helpful. I was having a conversation with one of my mom friends the other day Ocean was having a play day, and she asked me if I had anxiety, and she was talking to me about hers. I told her, yes, I still have it. She said that her anxiety got really bad after her second baby, to the point where, like the other day, she said, it just hit me like a ton of bricks my anxiety. My legs went numb, my hands went numb. I said, someone needs to take my daughter immediately outside. She said, I felt like I was going to pass out. And I have never related so much. That's how my anxiety has been getting. Where my body starts, you know, turning numb, and I don't I'm not on medication. It definitely the Sunday scary type of anxiety. I know, baby subsided once I got sober. But my anxiety sometimes becomes debilitating. Like I'll be in a room full of people I don't know and be like I have to I have to remove. This isn't like I need to leave in five minutes. This is I need to teleport now somewhere else. 00:09:09 Speaker 2: Yeah and that. Yeah, So that's what I do. And that's the other thing with anxiety is everybody's anxiety is different, so I can't I can give you what I do, but I can't tell you it'll help you. 00:09:22 Speaker 1: Will you ever have your other brother as a guest. I don't think Brandon would ever be on the podcast I am. 00:09:30 Speaker 2: I think if we if we had a podcast that was structured that he felt comfortable to do, because I remember he did Tyler Henry yep, so I think he would do it. 00:09:42 Speaker 1: It was nervous about that, yeah, but. 00:09:45 Speaker 2: I was nervous about this and I just walk in and do it whatever comes with it. 00:09:49 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, Brandon is definitely like he is my dad through and through. He's like, I don't want attention, I don't need I would run it. I don't need anything on me. 00:10:00 Speaker 2: I want him on just so everybody can look at him and just know that that's what our dad was. Totally like, if you guys want to inside, look at who our father was, our brother Brandon. 00:10:12 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't even think you'd get a real glimpse because I think cameras and a mic in his face be like I want nothing to do with this, which is wild because his daughter, our niece London, is like a performer through and through. 00:10:28 Speaker 2: She loves a stage. 00:10:29 Speaker 1: Yeah, she's like, get me an agent, get me a manager. I'm trying to act, dance seeing she's so talented, And I told her, girl, it's all about timing. You know, you're beautiful, you're young. 00:10:41 Speaker 2: Very well, she's too Yeah, I love her too much for her to go into Hollywood. Now. 00:10:48 Speaker 1: Yeah, but Cheryl, I think would I told Cheryl if that's the move, if you guys decide to move to LA and do this, like you're in every meeting, you were in every room, you were in auditions, you are in rehearsals, like it does not matter. You stick to that child. 00:11:03 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, like you you are in the changing room with your daughter, You are in the bathroom with your daughter because you don't know where these crazy producers are popping out of their fucking freaks. 00:11:14 Speaker 1: What's been the hardest part from one to two babies. The hardest part is there's two of them now literally having zero free time. It's by the end of the day, I am utterly exhausted, but in the best way. It's like I feel like I was fulfilled that day. I had a purpose that day. My kids are my entire purpose right now. But it's a lot of chaos in this house. There's three dogs, there's two children. Lily's had a stroke. She's not doing well right now. She can't get up on her own, so she requires a lot of attention. And it's there's this song called just Another Day in Paradise, and it's so old school and it sounds so cheesy, and I'm sure you all want to punch me in the face for saying this. But there are moments where I sit back. I saw this thing on Instagram that was like, the house will be clean again, someday, you will be able to sleep all you want someday, So like. 00:12:13 Speaker 2: Enjoy this moment and enjoy the mess. 00:12:15 Speaker 1: Yes, So that mixed with the song just Another Day in Paradise, where he talks about all the chaos and like how shit doesn't work and he wanted to have sex with his wife but the baby came in. I don't have that problem, but it's like it was like this, hi, babe. It was just like the perfect combination of going, Wow, this is like a really freaking beautiful life. And I wouldn't trade the chaos for anything. But you do sit there and when you get the kids in bed before six thirty and they're like out out, that's the closest you will get to heaven at this stage of life. 00:12:47 Speaker 2: Oh I can I can only imagine what you feel when they're down, and you can. 00:12:51 Speaker 1: Just breathe a freaking load off the best thirteen weeks pregnant and sick af When did that subside for you? Which's freshly into second try, I believe again not good with numbers. That's when mine's subsided. But then people like Britney cart Right when she was pregnant with Cruz, had morning sickness, mourning sickness was actually just sickness until Cruise came out of her back. So I wish you the best god speed if you are sick, though I don't know what your ob recommends or like what you're down to take. You look so gorgeous. 00:13:27 Speaker 2: You are beautiful, very pretty. 00:13:32 Speaker 1: Love you so much. My doctor for my sickness told me to take because would get sick at night too, like in my sleep unism. That's what you take before they like actually prescribe you anti nausea medication. Okay, so I don't know, there's something. What's your go to snack? 00:13:54 Speaker 2: T t H My go to snacks right now? Life, I love gummy bears, Oh sugar, horribo, gummy bears? That or my other favorite snack right now? 00:14:05 Speaker 1: Top off my snack with some I think it's horrorbo haribo, Horbo harbo. Yeah, the gummy bears, definitely, yeah, carribo, it's horrbo harbo. 00:14:17 Speaker 2: But also my other favorite snack is cream, cheese, a dash of strawberry jelly mix it, crackers dipping it. 00:14:29 Speaker 1: My my go to snack is either cheddar sun chips. I love cheese and crackers. And then right now, can I tell you what's hitten so heavy? Is the cadberry eggs. 00:14:44 Speaker 2: I've been I've been coming in your cabinet and sneaking a few, and I can't get enough. I've noticed after I eat one, it becomes a I'm like, I know, the alcoholic comes out with those Cadberry eggs. 00:14:59 Speaker 1: Let me tell you there are many reasons that I'm okay with being single, right, oh I the ZiT patches, the face full of oil. Let me tell you. Getting into my bed watching Abbot Elementary and just consuming all the choosing crackers and then Cadbury. 00:15:15 Speaker 2: Do you want to know what I think about constantly? Is a Room Raiders? Do you remember that on MTV where the three people they would get dragged out of their rooms and then one girl or guy would go into their room and look through it and they would choose the person based off their room room. 00:15:34 Speaker 1: It would never get picked. 00:15:35 Speaker 2: Just to let you know, they'd open the door and just close it again and go all right, and that one is a no go. 00:15:41 Speaker 1: You're a snacker at night. Why is Lisa called Gigi? Lisa's called Gigi because she used to go by Mema, which is so wild, but it was Mema and Poppy, and once my dad passed away, she wanted nothing to do with the name of Mema anymore because she was like, it just reminds me of like, it's just not it's Mema and Poppy. So then when that went away, she decided to go by Gigi, which was okay for my kids because they've they've only known her as Gigi. But when she had to retrain, London and Dre to call her Ggi instead of Mema, and they've been calling her Mema. 00:16:17 Speaker 2: For their whole life. Up on your fifteen years sixteen years. 00:16:22 Speaker 1: They kill it now though. Yeah, she just liked that name, so she just went by it. She couldn't be me me because that was our grandma. I love your hair, so says the cutest and so is Oh, I love the relationship you have with Easton. Am I holding you here against your will? Can we clean that up? 00:16:37 Speaker 2: Kind of? 00:16:38 Speaker 1: I am no? On what planet? 00:16:41 Speaker 2: To everybody? 00:16:41 Speaker 1: I mean, I constantly am getting messages being like your poor family that you hold hostage. 00:16:47 Speaker 2: Oh h my god, what I feel like. I've cleaned this up many a times. But for everybody thinking that I am a hostage, if you think that my sister is a hermit crab, I'm ten times that I hate going out. I don't like doing anything. When I do go out, it's usually with a broad group of people, which sets my anxiety into into place, which I don't like having, so I don't love going out. I've said this a million times. My mom, yes, is my mom. My sister is my sister. But they're with this family. The dynamic is so great that she's not just my sister. She's my best friend. She's my homie. My mom is my best friend, she's my homie. And there's days where my mom is my mom and where my mom is my homie, where I am joking, we're teasing each other, we're laughing. There's no it's just a friend communication. 00:17:39 Speaker 1: It's like a very lighthearted day. 00:17:41 Speaker 2: Yes. Yes. And that's the other thing is I love that mom and dad made us comfortable to say whatever, because there is nothing that my mom doesn't know about me. So there's nothing I am hiding. So I can come in and treat her like a friend. She's somebody ivent to, you know, so I'm not held against my will. I just to let you guys know, my mom and sister have multiple times you should go out with your friends, and I always go, sure, No, I don't want to go out. I'm hanging out with you guys. You're my homies. I love being home. You guys, tell me to go out, I continue to not go out. I love my life. I am not held against my will. I also continuously asked to take Ocean to school to do things because it makes my day. So to everybody saying that I am, if they think I'm a prisoner in here, I'll just say it's because I locked the gate on myself if that be the case, because it's a happy prison to be in. My family are my friends. 00:18:45 Speaker 1: And I want to know what else I think shifted once Dad died, because like I was living out in La you guys were all back home. Everyone was doing their thing, like you had a hell of friends, you were out all the time. Once Dad passed away, like we were already a pretty tight a very tight knit family. Once he was gone, it really I think shook us all to our core where it was like, I don't know about you, but I don't want to spend like a second. 00:19:12 Speaker 2: Apart and a one hundred percent agree. And I also felt like Dad was the person who kind of kept all of us together, like the morning text that you'd get, yes, I'd get, he would call mom, he would do all of these little things. And because he did that, we were tight knit, and once that left, we wanted that still. So now we're all just together because we can't get the texts. 00:19:34 Speaker 1: Oh, I love that tea. If you didn't do reality TV? What do you think your current job would be? I would either want to be a prosecutor or a murder investigator. What would you want to be? If you like, could pick anything on the planet to be, Like, you don't have to think about the road to get there. You could just blink and be it. 00:19:56 Speaker 2: I do like law, Like, okay, you want to. 00:19:59 Speaker 1: Be a lawyer? 00:19:59 Speaker 2: Yeah? 00:20:00 Speaker 1: Like what like a criminal attorney? 00:20:02 Speaker 2: Yeah? 00:20:02 Speaker 1: You'd want to represent the murder? 00:20:04 Speaker 2: Maybe not? Maybe not. 00:20:07 Speaker 1: I don't think you could. I don't think your soul would. 00:20:09 Speaker 2: No. I don't know, but no, I I maybe even do, like, you know, investigator, like, yeah, see how it happened, Add things up, go talk to people, read them. Yeah, I would enjoy that. I feel like and I like putting bad people away. 00:20:25 Speaker 1: Oh, you and me both driving them, driving them out of town. 00:20:32 Speaker 2: I got. 00:20:35 Speaker 1: You have had a lot going on lately, do you feel do you feel you have processed all the changes? 00:20:42 Speaker 2: Yeah? If anybody has it, it's her, I promise. 00:20:47 Speaker 1: Oh God, I think I put that in like my goodbye post to the life that once was on reality TV of like I hate change, but for the first time ever, I'm okay with this type of change. And it's just crazy to think where I started and where I am now. And a lot of people asked about, like what what changed as far as like what you want to do with with your life and the direction. You know, I once was super obsessed with beauty. I had the beauty line. My whole life has changed, like having two kids, I don't have the time I once had. I don't have the energy I once had, and I'm not trying to be one of those moms that's like, oh, just like doing mom stuff. But I do understand those people now that when they say I'm just being a mom, it is that is like an era in itself and it's exhausting, and I enjoy the change that has come. What motivates you to be the best version of yourself every day? Easton? 00:21:48 Speaker 2: My family? 00:21:49 Speaker 1: Really? 00:21:50 Speaker 2: Yeah? 00:21:50 Speaker 1: Okay, I love that? So yeah, family, like not seeing you're not the type that's motivated by are you motivated by? Like and things like that? Possessions. 00:22:02 Speaker 2: Let me put it this way, all of us would love a shitload of money. I would love to do something I enjoy, and I'm obviously striving and working for that right now that I would love to do every day, seven days a week. It's not work, and with that will come money. But no, I'm not driven by shiny objects money losing Dad. I'm just striving for happiness. Yeah, Like, once you get to a certain point, you're like, fuck everything, I just want to wake up and be happy, you know. Yeah, So that's like what I'm striving for. And that's the other thing is like when I lost Dad, I lost pretty much a whole part of me. Yeah, and I'm still trying to put that back and like finding out what I enjoy and there's things where I enjoy it, and then it brings up Dad, And so I'm in a rock and a hard spot of like, now do I enjoy doing this enough where now I'm thinking of him every day in that same like obviously I think of him every day, but like now it's thoughts and things that what I'm doing I was doing with him. So there's a couple of things. 00:23:07 Speaker 1: So who knows if he will ever go away? 00:23:10 Speaker 2: And I don't think it will, And that's something that I have to just comes to grip with. 00:23:15 Speaker 1: It'll be seven years that he's been gone in April. 00:23:18 Speaker 2: And it feels like yesterday. And that's the thing. Like I talked to people a lot in the program and they're like, yeah, I lost my dad twenty two years ago, and I'll go up and talk to him and I'm like, yeah, mine seven, But I know for your twenty two, it feels like yesterday. Like you can't it's stuck in your mind, like. 00:23:34 Speaker 1: Yeah, every wrinkle on his face, the way he talked, yeah, is like little motions that he would. 00:23:39 Speaker 2: Yeah, everything about him, all of that is like you know what I think about. But I'm wanting to wake up and be happy and be happy knowing he's happy and proud of me. Yeah, and that doesn't come with shiny objects. I love that. 00:23:55 Speaker 1: So that is that was very well said. Thank you so good that I'm not even gonna onto it or tell you what drives me because that was beautiful. How do you have so much energy? Is it what you eat? I have never had anyone be like you have so much energy? Literally, never has that happened to me, And I am going to take it. I don't think it's what I don't think it's what I eat. 00:24:17 Speaker 2: You must not know her well. 00:24:19 Speaker 1: No, I feel like I'm constantly dragging. I get a lot done during the day, But to say that I'm energetic while doing it, no, I am freaking tired, which is why I look like this most of the time. I have a well balanced diet. Will I eat like spinach and like some avocado? 00:24:37 Speaker 2: Hell yeah? 00:24:38 Speaker 1: But will I drive through Taco Bell? Fuck? Yes, I will, and I will get three soft shell tacos, a Nacho's Bell Grande, the twelve pack of cinnamon uh donuts, keep going, And that is common twists, all right. So I find that balance is everything. But also I think the way to get through the day even if you're not energetic about it. But like you have things to do, when you conquer your to do list, you have to prioritize yourself. Like I say, I'm done, I'm going upstairs. Please don't bother me anymore. I'm reading a book. I will do that tomorrow. That was not a part of today's agenda. It's going to flip over on tomorrow's to do list. Like I prioritize my alone time and staying in the zone so much that is exhausting that it is exhausting, how hardcore I prioritize myself. 00:25:39 Speaker 2: Fuck you, I just had to win loser. Maybe you have to say it. 00:25:46 Speaker 1: What is your favorite conspiracy theory or one that you think is most interesting. I'm I'm shook if every time someone brings up that we have not landed on the moon. 00:25:57 Speaker 2: I that's my biggest thing right now, is it's just a lot of people talking about the world simulation and people saying that we're an area fifty one multiple people, that we are just our bodies are parcels and we are creating energy for another world. 00:26:21 Speaker 1: It's all so interesting, actually, Like I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but there are some that are brought to me and I'm like, I could see it. 00:26:29 Speaker 2: I'll believe anything right now. But the other thing, and it's maybe not a conspiracy theory. I just don't understand how we have not searched ninety percent of the ocean on our own Earth. But let's get out of space. No, let's get going down low. Let me tell you got there. 00:26:44 Speaker 1: We want to talk about UFOs. You're convinced they're coming down. I'm convinced that. 00:26:48 Speaker 2: They're coming up. What are we doing? 00:26:51 Speaker 1: Get down there and see what it see what it possesses. 00:26:54 Speaker 2: Well, now we're all afraid because of Ocean Gate. What do you mean the sub They're like going down and even make it to my Titanic. 00:27:03 Speaker 1: If they want us to go even deeper. 00:27:05 Speaker 2: Deeper know where the meglotons live, They'll just eat the parcel of that's the giant uhloon too so bad. Oh, there's a layer of sand and they think it's the top. But if they break through, they'll know. Terrible fucking written movie. 00:27:26 Speaker 1: By the way, though, Deep Blue, Deep Blue Sea, which is the one where they make the sharks really really intelligent, Oh fantastic. Do you ever struggle with self identity after becoming a mom? Mom of two eleven and sixteen, and I'm feeling lost? You are in great company. I love to say that that is not your forever. You are going to find yourself again. Eleven and six would be a tough one to be like, Wow, I've had these kids a long time. Why do I not have my own identity? But my identity too right now is wrapped up in my kids. I'm constantly talking about when is my lala coming back? 00:28:03 Speaker 2: And I do have to say, yours isn't gonna I mean, you'll get yours back, obviously, and she's going to get hers back. But eleven and six is a very tough age because what are you doing. You're driving your eleven year old to parties, to after school activities, to sports events, things like that, and now your six thirty year old is now having play dates, becoming their own person that you are now watching and doing. So I can understand how you lose sight of all of that, but the one thing that you're doing is keeping your kids and making them the best them, which when they are adults, will give you the best version of you in them. And now you can find your identity again. I get how hard it is to find it in that because I see so many moms now, yes, tanking kids from A to B, going to C to pick up their other kid to take them to D. And at what point can you just sit and think who the fuck am I and what the fuck do I like? That makes me happy? 00:28:59 Speaker 1: I know, and I do encourage people to take that moment to be like what do I like to do? Because again, these moments are fleeting there will be a moment that comes and you're gonna be like, my identity is is gone because my identity lies within my kids. Now they're at college, which is awesome. I did a great job, but who am I? And you know, Season ten was the prime example of me having like a really I was really wanting to figure out who I was. I went back to being bleach blonde. I sorry, Easton, got my boobs done, got my ears pinned back. Keep in mind, I'm gonna have to go in and get my boobs redone because it looks like I didn't even have a boob job after nursing a second child. And I just think we take it one day at a time because I too don't know when my Lala is going to come back, and that thinking the long haul is very, very terrifying to be like, holy shit, what am I doing? 00:29:57 Speaker 2: So you take it by yeah, And I mean maybe I very I don't know if it is something that would help for anybody, but like taking time out of each day to do something you enjoy, whether that be journal, knitting, watching your show, sitting in a hot up, whatever it is, just day by day you have to do something for you to relax and find out who you still are. 00:30:22 Speaker 1: I love that, and like, call a group of your girlfriends and say, you know what, I really want to go out, make a reservation at a super cute restaurant. Punt the kids off too. If you have a husband or a baby daddy who's. 00:30:34 Speaker 2: Privy anoo my friends, even if you can't get out of the house because your kids. 00:30:40 Speaker 1: I don't recommend zoom no, no, no, I'm just saying, Okay, put your face on, put your heels on, go out and feel cute and hot. I agree with your girls for a couple hours, and let me tell you something. It will revive you. You'll get back home and be like, someone, please get me back into cozy pooling my kids and putting my sweatpants on. It does, yeah, bring you back. 00:31:04 Speaker 2: Yeah. Even if you and your hobby or whomever it is, your partner, you need to do an event every month, find something that you get to get dressed up for, you get the babysitter, you do something, but you get to go out and be your own person. And that would also I think that's the other thing. People need to schedule things for them and their partner and they don't need to worry about the kid because they've worried enough about them. Yeah, they need to take time because you got to be the best version of you to be the best version for your kids, and that comes with going the fuck out. 00:31:39 Speaker 1: Yeah, get a little buzz if you drink, have a martini, maybe twelve. Who gives a shit? What is your go to chili's order? Eaton? 00:31:48 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, all right, ours. 00:31:50 Speaker 1: Is kind of the same. 00:31:52 Speaker 2: It really, it's all the same. So usually get there, we get the chips and queso. 00:31:57 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I gotta have the chips and qesa. 00:31:59 Speaker 2: I get a bowl of tortilla a soup, same with the. 00:32:02 Speaker 1: Side of flower tortillas. 00:32:04 Speaker 2: Extra flower tortillas. And then if I'm feeling naughty, yeah, sometimes I'll get a bowl of mac and cheese. Wow, he's like, cheesy, lady, I think I gotta go to chili. 00:32:17 Speaker 1: I'm so down together tonight, you don't even know.

I have my number one seat and my number eight Teresa Judice and Ashley Darby. They'll be facing off. Teresa Judice was a no brainer. She is the face of housewives across the board. Ashley Darby, she fucking killed this last season. Loved her. She's coming to her own That's why she's on my list. Number three is facing off with number six Erica Jane obviously my girl because she just kills it and is one of the strongest housewives out there. She's facing off with Heather Debrow. Heather Debro is rich, fabulous, logical, and I love the way she dismisses people iconic. Before is going to face off with five. I've got Dolores, Catanya and Durit Kemsley. Dolores is the fucking godfather, so I had to take her. 00:33:49 Speaker 2: I loved Dolores just on Housewives and then on Traders she is even better. 00:33:56 Speaker 1: Yes, it was hard to place her at number four.

Number two. Direnda Mdley is facing off with my number seven, Tamra Judge. I picked Dirnda Mdley because, truthfully, she is one of my most favorite housewives I have ever watched on the planet. I could watch an entire TV show just based on her. She's a friend of mine. I've gone to dinner with her. You feel like you're watching an episode of Real Housewives. That's how authentically her she actually is. Through and through. Tamra Judge, you know what. I picked her because people she's polarizing. People love her or people can't stand her. I relate to that. Again, She's probably another top tier housewife that you go housewives household name. That is my matchup.
