Oh it's really bad, but 71 00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:55.560 I didn't get you a card, so I thought i'd write you a little 72 00:05:55.560 --> 00:06:00.959 poem that's even better. Okay, Happy birthday, Eric. Brother from another 73 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:05.839 mother. He's kind, He's a fierce friend and someone I occasionally want a 74 00:06:05.879 --> 00:06:13.319 smother. Eric loves with all his soul and heart, and when the cameras 75 00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:18.040 aren't rote rolling, he always lets out a fart. Not always. I 76 00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:24.439 turn to him when I am in need. Autobiographies are the books he likes 77 00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:28.040 to read. He poops eight times a day, by the way, which 78 00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:33.079 is freakish. Indeed, he's my bff number one, No question there, 79 00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:40.040 but his number one bff has brown hair, and it's cool. I don't 80 00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:48.959 care, it's unstund don't worry. Okay, thank you for being by my 81 00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:54.319 side all these years, through laughter, drama, crazy stuff, in tears. 82 00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:59.639 Your very presence brings people so much joy.

That's the best card. Oh my god. 88 00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:33.199 Yeah, I really look great in that last line. Well, that last 89 00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:38.800 paragraph was well, I just may frame that. It's all true. It's 90 00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:43.199 all true. I love you, Thank you. Okay, before we have 91 00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:46.839 Monique one, we need to do our host chat and a little bit of 92 00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:53.040 double D and so we all start with my host chat. So no big 93 00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:57.000 deal, no big deal, Oh, no big deal. Yeah, no 94 00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:00.680 big deal at all. I mean I didn't really even care. Last night 95 00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:05.720 I was on National TV. I'm just saying, oh, Dateline, No, 96 00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:13.680 did they bring back to catchup brother. Okay, I was on a 97 00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:20.639 show on TLC called ninety Day Diaries and it's a spin off of ninety Day 98 00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:28.920 Fiance. Now. We filmed this back when I had a concussion, so 99 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:33.919 that was like maybe May or April, and it just now aired. And 100 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:37.720 the funny thing is when I have the clip, the funny thing is I 101 00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.840 had like the big gash on my forehead. This was the day after that 102 00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:46.759 we did the filming. I have no recollection. I don't remember driving, 103 00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:50.639 I don't remember setting up the cameras. I don't remember helping with the lighting 104 00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:52.840 or even talking or what I said. So this was all a big surprise 105 00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:58.840 to me. And you know what's weird. They totally blurred out my injury 106 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:03.080 because my full old forehead shows, but there's no there's no gash. That's 107 00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:07.879 what I love about TV. They could blur out my entire face and I 108 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:11.320 would just be like two. As someone who edits, I can just imagine 109 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:13.279 how much work you made for them. That's hours of work right there. 110 00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:20.000 That took so long to do. Oh, by the way, what was 111 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.279 it called Mamma Mia or something? Is that that That was the title of 112 00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:28.600 them recording it tonight. Okay, Kimberly's segment is the first one that runs, 113 00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:31.759 and it's like three little segments, and we're one of them. So 114 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:39.879 here's the part where Jody and I took Kimberly to Manhattan and we went out 115 00:09:39.919 --> 00:10:00.679 and we had a girl's night. Who you are? We also cut that 116 00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:03.039 scene from the trailer where you look super ditsie while they're all laughing, all 117 00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:07.200 right, look I'm a zombie. Look I got a stream close up. 118 00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:16.879 Okay, you were playing Laura and you were us. Okay, So now 119 00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:30.240 got back though to the restaurant. Now it's kind of blurred on the side 120 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.639 because there were people eating. I know how they can't the people in there, 121 00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.720 so we look distorted that Kimberly looks good. That's all that appers. 122 00:10:43.960 --> 00:11:01.600 I think that really, Laura, the damn shame. Chris Hansen in the 123 00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:24.639 background, I was you were so last night the cheers and then last night 124 00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:28.720 we all went to Kimberly's house and we watched it together and it was really 125 00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:31.720 really cool. I wish I could have been there. I know, we 126 00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.919 wanted you there, we wanted you there, but it was your birthday, 127 00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:41.840 I know.

So it was also my dad's birthday, so got to 171 00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:48.799 celebrate that too. Flying was a little bit of pain. My flight got 172 00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:52.639 delayed on the way back, so I had to take two additional flights to 173 00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:54.000 be able to get home on the same day, so I had to fly 174 00:14:54.519 --> 00:15:01.159 to Denver and Missouri first before. Oh my god. Yeah, it was 175 00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:07.320 a nightmare, but it was fine. I got to see my dogs, 176 00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.559 love my dogs. And you brought your girlfriend with you. Yeah, she's 177 00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:13.519 come for the last three years. We did an escape room. I love 178 00:15:13.600 --> 00:15:16.120 escape rooms. Those are great. Actually, I want to do one so 179 00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.039 bad. They're great. I love them. I did one with three other 180 00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:24.519 girls from the Traffic department and we failed. We couldn't get out. I 181 00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:28.159 believe that, but I'm pretty good at them. So I feel like us 182 00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:35.320 together, Hardy, we'll carry you on our shoulders. Actually, we should 183 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:37.440 do one of those. That would be fun, if it makes you feel 184 00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:39.440 better. My family did not get out either, but my mom also accidentally 185 00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:43.039 booked the hardest one they had, so oh, okay, typical mom fast. 186 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.320 I also want to do axe throwing, and I want to go into 187 00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:50.440 one of those rooms where you can bring dishes and old TVs and stuff and 188 00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:54.039 just break stuff, get your aggressions out. That I want to do. 189 00:15:54.200 --> 00:16:03.120 But the axe thing throwing remind me next Thursday or this Thursday. Okay, 190 00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:08.919 I have a story for you. Let's just say if if we can have 191 00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:15.960 people vote. I was on a flight and I want people to weigh in 192 00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:21.399 if I got booted off the flight after what happened, or if I was 193 00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:23.799 able to remain on the flight. This is on for Thursdays. This is 194 00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:33.320 Thursday episode. It is a barn burner. This is so unbelievable. I 195 00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:37.519 had this day and age that this happened. But we're saving it for Thursday. 196 00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:41.000 We're saving it. I will say for like two three flights in a 197 00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:45.159 row visiting my parents. I either got grounded because someone had a stroke, 198 00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:52.279 my flight got outright canceled two consecutive times, or I one time I one 199 00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:53.960 of my flights got canceled, So I flew into Georgia and my dad drove 200 00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:57.279 all the way down from North Carolina and picked me up and drove me all 201 00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:00.919 the way back up on Christmas Eves I got. I got home at Christmas 202 00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:04.759 at four in the morning. Oh, it was a nightmare. But you 203 00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:11.400 see that Alaska Airlines flight where the whole entire like a window blew out. 204 00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:14.039 They told me not to mess with the window paneling, but it was coming 205 00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:17.240 on. I mean when that happens, all the things dropped, all the 206 00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:21.279 oxygen masks dropped. I mean, did everybody have to put it on like 207 00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:26.720 what happened? No, I know, but like if they didn't, would 208 00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:32.480 they they might have trouble staying conscious. It depends at the altitude. How 209 00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:37.440 scary is that? That is terrify. It almost got sucked out and the 210 00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:40.400 mom would like had to hold him down. He lost his shirt, like 211 00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:45.759 a shirt got supped right off of him. That would have been crazy. 212 00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:48.160 The pressurization is no joke. Yeah. Wait, and then New Year's what 213 00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.960 do you guys do for New Year's too? Oh? I want to talk 214 00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:53.799 about that on Thursday? All right, Well, what I did is I 215 00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:59.079 got a ball of champagne. Uh huh I drank it, okay. And 216 00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:00.880 then did you stay up to him? That's what I was doing? Okay? 217 00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:04.440 And then did you like bang pots and pans? Did you blow on 218 00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:11.720 horns? Did you like? Nope? Yell or kiss or okay? Anyway, 219 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:14.799 well, Alicia stayed up. I have. I'll tell you about my 220 00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:22.960 really super cool, very kind of spiritual New Year's Eve and where I was. 221 00:18:22.160 --> 00:18:26.640 You won't believe where I was on New Year's even cemetery. No, 222 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.200 but uh funny if I got that right. But that's for Thursday too. 223 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:36.480 Okay, let's get to your Double D news because we have Monique waiting to 224 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:41.000 come on and I can't wait to talk to her. I know, so 225 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:45.200 I have. It's been a there were some things that happened earlier, but 226 00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:48.920 it's it's old news now, so nothing really big has happened except for the 227 00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:52.559 golden globes that were last night. Oh yes, I didn't. I don't 228 00:18:52.599 --> 00:18:56.960 know anything about this, ok like mini oscars? Okay, who won? 229 00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:02.920 What one? So Oppenheimer? Oh, by the way, odd, I 230 00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:08.200 watched it when I was in Vegas, and I'll tell this on Thursday. 231 00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:15.160 But I watched Oppenheimer in the hotel room and oh my god, excruciating. 232 00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:19.160 You shut your dirty mouth all right? Oh God, no art, there 233 00:19:19.279 --> 00:19:25.599 was so much talking. God, there was no car chases. Oh, 234 00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:36.319 I watched Sulburn. I also recently watched The Burn is so crazy it was 235 00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:42.839 And that last song, Murder on the Dance Floor is now the most downloaded 236 00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:47.680 song right now. It's a great song. Such a weird scene. It 237 00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:49.240 was such a weird scene. Well, there was a couple of scenes in 238 00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:53.400 that movie that were the most shocking to me. Is still the last song 239 00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:57.599 where he's just hanging brain for like straight like four minutes, dancing around naked 240 00:19:57.640 --> 00:20:03.039 with things flopping around. What about the scene at the cemetery where he's on 241 00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:07.319 the when the guy dies and he's tastes off. That's kind of weird. 242 00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:15.759 Well what about what about the girl? Uh? Well, anyway, anyway, 243 00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:19.319 that wasn't as weird Comparatively, it was crazy. I really liked it. 244 00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:26.039 It was twisted and I liked it. Two things were the Matthew Perry's 245 00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:30.960 cause of death was released. Yes, I mean yes, and they think 246 00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:37.279 that it might have just been some people are on that for therapy. Yeah. 247 00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:40.680 Yeah, so there was nothing else in his system, which was good 248 00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:44.319 to know. They think he just shouldn't have taken it before he sat in 249 00:20:44.319 --> 00:20:48.400 a hot tub. That's basically what they said. And then yesterday Shinad O'Connor's 250 00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:51.039 cause of death came out and it was natural causes, so it was not 251 00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:56.119 suicide, oh as everybody had speculated. So that was good. How do 252 00:20:56.160 --> 00:21:00.400 you die at that age of natural causes? But okay, I don't know, 253 00:21:00.519 --> 00:21:03.799 but at least it put to rest all these rumors that she had probably 254 00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:11.160 killed herself. So unfortunately, but it's okay. So the Golden Globes it 255 00:21:11.240 --> 00:21:17.160 was the weirdest. Did you see Beef on beef? Yes? On that 256 00:21:17.839 --> 00:21:21.599 one? So much stuff. It was good. It's a really good show. 257 00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:25.839 You haven't watched it. It's based on a true story. For what 258 00:21:26.160 --> 00:21:30.519 the producer or the writer. It was based on something that happened to him. 259 00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:37.119 Whoa, whoa. Yeah, So that swept Oppenheimer did really well. 260 00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:44.519 A lot of movies I've never heard of. Did very did Barbie do well? 261 00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:48.720 Barbie only won like one award? Okay, it was I forget what 262 00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:52.759 it was. It was at the very end. It was like cinema Achievement 263 00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:56.920 or something like that. It kind of got a pity award. Yeah, 264 00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:00.680 and I watched it. I actually watched it over Christmas and not like it. 265 00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:03.680 Okay, you don't pass the boyfriend test, then wow, shocking, 266 00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:10.519 I know, shocking at girl's boyfriend test was Yeah, you didn't like the 267 00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:12.079 message, you didn't get the message coming on, I got the message. 268 00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:15.880 It was just dumb. It was also very heavy handed, Yeah, it 269 00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:18.599 was. I didn't like it. Felt like I got strapped down the theater 270 00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:22.119 seat and it slapped me with it. I will say I liked it at 271 00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:26.839 the beginning, and then after that I didn't really. Did you get it 272 00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:30.160 when the guys were on the beach and they're like, we're gonna have a 273 00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:33.039 beach off so stupid? Yeah, that was stupid, but I didn't. 274 00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.279 I didn't equate that too. It was that was even more obvious. That 275 00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:41.559 was like right Over is fantastic in it, as is even Will Ferrell is 276 00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:44.880 really good in it too. Yeah, I just thought I was dumb. 277 00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:52.759 So my best dressed I had three. Okay, Rosamund Pike, who played 278 00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:57.359 the mom in Sulburn. Oh, yes, she looked exquisite. She looked 279 00:22:57.359 --> 00:23:00.200 like a doll. She looks great for her age. She looks amazing. 280 00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:06.119 She had a black Christian Dure dress on and this Philip Tracy hat that she 281 00:23:06.200 --> 00:23:10.240 wound up taking off, which was great because it hid that beautiful face, 282 00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:14.480 had this big black veil on it, and she lost that once she got 283 00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:19.119 indoors, and she looked great. Jennifer Lopez looked really good. And Amanda 284 00:23:19.200 --> 00:23:27.359 Seifried looked amazing. What is she she played? She's a character. She 285 00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:33.200 played like Linda Lovelace, and she played on that Netflix, that show about 286 00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:38.680 that woman who did correct. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. 287 00:23:40.799 --> 00:23:49.359 And my worst dressed were all the women that wore the stupid dresses where you 288 00:23:49.400 --> 00:23:57.759 could see their underweary the sheer one. Beckinsdale looked amazing from the waist up. 289 00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:02.759 Okay, she usually does no wrong. She usually looks. I'm sure 290 00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:04.880 she liked gray. From the waist down. She just was just part of 291 00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:11.279 your repulsion of the female anatomy. It's not because you couldn't see vagina underwear. 292 00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:17.039 Yeah, it was just all sheer and dumb, and I'm sure most 293 00:24:17.200 --> 00:24:22.000 everybody and every other male probably thought it was like fantastic. Yeah, probably 294 00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:26.640 were hoping for, like probably something to write up and like lip the fall 295 00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:30.680 Out or something. Jesus stop it. I'm not kidding. I mean it 296 00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:36.640 was an awful who else? So Joe Cooy hosted it? Okay, Okay, 297 00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:40.519 I like him, but he's used to doing like I've seen have you 298 00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:44.319 seen a stand up on Netflix? He's got several specials and everything. He's 299 00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:49.640 used to playing these huge arenas as a host for the Golden Globes not so 300 00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:55.440 much. Did he tank or did he was it? I thought it fell 301 00:24:55.519 --> 00:24:59.880 really flat. And then when it did, he blamed the writers that wrote 302 00:24:59.880 --> 00:25:02.319 the other material, which is something I don't think you want to do. 303 00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:11.720 So, and then that he made a joke at Taylor Swift's expence, something 304 00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:18.839 about the NFL and it gets more screen time than her something she gets more 305 00:25:18.839 --> 00:25:22.440 screen time. Yes, yeah, during the she was having a sip of 306 00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:26.920 champagne when she did it, and it was like that whole who's the Jada 307 00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:30.000 Pinkett Smith thing? During the Oscars. It was that whole like and then 308 00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:33.720 she was gone from the Golden Globes. She took off. Yeah, she 309 00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:40.359 was like, I actually seeing people make fun of her. Oh it was 310 00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:45.079 she was pissed. She was so mad. So then the craziest part was 311 00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:52.079 they had a news segment which was stand up comedy, and so Ricky Gervais 312 00:25:52.160 --> 00:26:03.839 was nominated. No, Chris Any Schumer, Wanda Psykes. Well, uh, 313 00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:07.960 Ricky Gervase won. And you know he can't give a crap about their 314 00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:11.759 shows, Like he got kicked off hosting the Golden Globes because he was right, 315 00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:18.480 because he doesn't. He doesn't give a flip. He doesn't everybody say 316 00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:25.200 stuff. So Jim Gaffigan came out, and I really like him. He 317 00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:30.519 made such an ill time joke about pedophilia and you could have heard a pin 318 00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:37.240 drop, like people were like what, so he probably won't be asked back. 319 00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:41.920 It was so bad. That's not his normal form. No, he's 320 00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:47.480 kind of a goodie goodie, like doesn't it's a hot topic topic issue. 321 00:26:47.480 --> 00:26:49.920 So yes, so comedians love making fun of Hollywood about pedophiles. Well, 322 00:26:49.920 --> 00:26:55.240 and he said something like I'm from Indiana, I'm not a pedophile and people 323 00:26:55.319 --> 00:27:00.880 you literally could hurt a pin drop. I abe, just don't joke about 324 00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:04.119 that. Oh that's like, come on. His point was he doesn't want 325 00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:08.200 to be associated really with the Hollywood elites because they have a habit or a 326 00:27:08.279 --> 00:27:11.200 history of at least of protecting people or at least not giving them up, 327 00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:15.960 who have done some pretty terrible things right right right now. Guilty a little 328 00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:18.799 bit. Not guilty by association, but guilty by uh what do you call 329 00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:21.960 it? Indifferent? So yeah, so on that note, not that I'm 330 00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:25.839 writing this thing, but have you seen the Sound of Freedom? Yes? 331 00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:29.880 I just watched, Okay, so did I. It was what unbelievable? 332 00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:33.920 It was really good. It was really it was scary to me having a 333 00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:37.960 daughter who's nineteen, who's walking the streets of New York City. Yeah, 334 00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:45.160 dude, Yeah, in Vegas there are signs everywhere about child trafficking. It 335 00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:51.200 was so weird to see that, I know, everywhere. I don't want 336 00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:52.720 to get into that right now, but like, I don't, I don't 337 00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:56.519 get it. I don't know. It's just that movie got slammed too for 338 00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:00.519 being too conservative. Oh really too like politically right wing? Yeah, it 339 00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:03.640 did, which was weird because I'm like, this seems like kind of a 340 00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:07.319 neutral issue. Yeah, for sure. Jim Cavisa was really good, Mirror 341 00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:11.200 Sorbina was really good, and the little Girl was excellent. She was great. 342 00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:15.440 So that was pretty much. It was just the Golden globes and you 343 00:28:15.480 --> 00:28:21.359 know it was okay, it was what it was. Well, now we 344 00:28:21.400 --> 00:28:25.079 have our very special guest coming up. We have special music for you. 345 00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:34.000 I'm going to turn the camera so we can you look fabulous. Monique is 346 00:28:34.039 --> 00:28:45.039 here from La Hoya Cosmetics and Surgery Center. There we go, there we 347 00:28:45.079 --> 00:28:48.119 go. Aus see, No, Eric, you have to sit closer to 348 00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:52.319 me. I know you, so we're all in the camera on Instagram. 349 00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:56.079 Hi Monique, it's so good to see you. Happy twenty twenty four. 350 00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:00.200 Thank you for coming in. I am so excited to be here. Is 351 00:29:00.240 --> 00:29:02.680 this good? Or do I bring it closer to your mouth? Yeah? 352 00:29:02.680 --> 00:29:06.640 We have our Yeah, we've a closer there you go. Yes, these 353 00:29:06.640 --> 00:29:10.240 are our new mic stands, so this is like our first You're our first 354 00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:15.720 guest on our first our new set. Love it, yes, and we 355 00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:22.000 thought it would be really great to start off the new year talking about you 356 00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:29.160 as in like you as in like you as in focusing on you this year. 357 00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:36.480 I think for me personally, I realize that that's something I really need 358 00:29:36.519 --> 00:29:41.319 to do more of. Instead of worrying about this person doing this person, 359 00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:45.559 focus on me, because I mean I had a little bit of a breakdown 360 00:29:45.599 --> 00:29:49.559 over the holidays. I'm like, you know what, twenty twenty four and 361 00:29:49.599 --> 00:29:53.920 I think that I think that you being here is really good because I know 362 00:29:55.000 --> 00:30:00.759 a lot of people are interested in things that Lahoya, CAUs, medic Surgery 363 00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:06.599 Center and medspall have to offer, and and just talk about maybe some things 364 00:30:06.680 --> 00:30:11.359 that you got, maybe new things that you guys have going on, or 365 00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:17.039 anything you want to talk new, you new twenty twenty four, Bring it 366 00:30:17.079 --> 00:30:22.240 on. Yeah. So I was thinking about this today and it is so 367 00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:26.240 perfect. And this is my third year coming here at the beginning of the 368 00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:33.720 holiday or the new year, and so I was thinking about there, okay, 369 00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:36.119 okay, we're all good, eat it. There we go, yees. 370 00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:41.240 So I was thinking about, you know, the New year renewal and 371 00:30:41.920 --> 00:30:47.880 giving yourself permission. Not all of us do that very well. We, 372 00:30:48.599 --> 00:30:52.960 like you said, we'll prioritize all these different things and we don't necessarily prioritize 373 00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:57.519 ourselves or we don't give us our permission to just do it. And there's 374 00:30:57.559 --> 00:31:03.119 never really a good time either. So let's say I'll give you my example 375 00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:07.079 that I thought of today from my real life. So I have had, 376 00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:11.039 you know, teeth that are not fabulous my whole life. I didn't ever 377 00:31:11.079 --> 00:31:15.759 have orthodonics, but I needed it. And so finally, like things are 378 00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:18.680 moving around, I'm like a turn fifty six on Christmas Day and I'm like, 379 00:31:18.759 --> 00:31:23.319 what's happening? So I decided to do in vis a line. Well, 380 00:31:23.559 --> 00:31:27.160 it's like the money, Okay, I don't want to spend the money. 381 00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:30.400 And then it's like, well should I start it now? Should I 382 00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:33.640 start it later? My son's getting married in a month, and like all 383 00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:40.359 these things, and like why maybe I shouldn't, But I thought about it. 384 00:31:40.400 --> 00:31:42.039 Is it going to change at this time next year? Is it going 385 00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:45.000 to be different? No, it's not gonna be different. It might be 386 00:31:45.039 --> 00:31:49.480 worse. Is it gonna be convenient now or later? Or it doesn't. 387 00:31:49.559 --> 00:31:55.880 It's sort of like never the perfect time. And so my message is sort 388 00:31:55.880 --> 00:32:00.240 of to give yourself permission to do what you want to do for yourself, 389 00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:05.000 and it's never ever the perfect time. It's never, but you really can 390 00:32:05.519 --> 00:32:07.079 prioritize yourself and just say, you know what, I'm going to do it 391 00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:13.319 because what I see, and now I've been in this business thirty two years 392 00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:20.880 and with Laoya Cosmetic for all of them, what I've seen is when I 393 00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:25.720 talk to patients after having a procedure, the first thing they say is I 394 00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:30.359 should have done it soon. That's what I said, I should have done 395 00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:34.400 it exactly what I say. If you really think about that, it's like, 396 00:32:34.519 --> 00:32:37.839 okay, that's let's say you put it off to next year. That's 397 00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:40.079 one more year. You don't get to enjoy it, and it sort of 398 00:32:40.119 --> 00:32:45.319 takes up your mental space. So you know, if you don't fix it, 399 00:32:45.799 --> 00:32:49.119 then you're thinking about it or it just is bothering you, whatever it 400 00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:52.319 is. And so it's like, you know, have that freedom to sort 401 00:32:52.319 --> 00:32:58.720 of indulge and take care of yourself in a way that you might not usually 402 00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:00.559 do. Don't feel guilt about it, and you know what, if you 403 00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:06.519 take care of yourself, it trickles down to everybody else, your kids, 404 00:33:06.519 --> 00:33:08.519 it trickles down to your friends, to your coworkers, to work. It 405 00:33:08.599 --> 00:33:15.359 may if you're happy, boom your life is better. If you feel like 406 00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:17.559 you look better, then you're going to act better. Yeah, and it 407 00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:22.559 was like right after your surgery when you were on she came on the podcast. 408 00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:25.039 It was awesome. And you know, I'll usually ask that question of 409 00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:29.240 patients. You know, what advice do you have for people going forward? 410 00:33:29.319 --> 00:33:31.480 And what would your advice be? Do it? Do it? If it's 411 00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:36.400 something you've been thinking about, there is a way to do it now. 412 00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:38.480 If you think, oh my gosh, it might be too expensive, I 413 00:33:38.519 --> 00:33:44.839 can't. There are options. There's always options, right, and that's something 414 00:33:44.880 --> 00:33:47.279 we never want to be a barrier, like you're talking about a mommy makeover, 415 00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:52.319 a facelift or some surgery. You know, botox can get pricey too, 416 00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:59.200 because it's very addicting, but you know it's those all those procedures. 417 00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:01.680 Who goes and buys a car and plunks down cash for the car, not 418 00:34:01.759 --> 00:34:06.200 a lot of people. Do we finance it and we don't think about We 419 00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:08.960 don't think twice about it. So same with surgery, same with you know, 420 00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:13.000 things in the MEDSPA. You can put it on. You know, 421 00:34:13.039 --> 00:34:17.559 they have a bunch of different financing companies they work with and you can make 422 00:34:17.599 --> 00:34:22.880 it affordable and it's nice because you don't have to think about putting it off 423 00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:27.599 for well, I haven't saved enough or budgeted. It's like it's never, 424 00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:30.320 Like I said, it's never the right time or the perfect time. But 425 00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:32.360 at least let yourself. Wherever you decide to go, it doesn't have to 426 00:34:32.400 --> 00:34:37.159 be us, but wherever you decide to go, it really does. I 427 00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:42.639 would That's where I'd pick because our surgeons are amazing and our our MEDSPA providers 428 00:34:42.639 --> 00:34:46.360 are incredible, and there you know, we've been around now thirty five years 429 00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:52.199 and you really do have a very good staff. Yeah, that work for 430 00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:54.480 you. Yet we're really proud of that. And you know, it takes 431 00:34:54.960 --> 00:35:00.559 a special kind of organization to keep the best people to tracked and retain the 432 00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:05.239 best people in the industry. And you know, a lot of the people 433 00:35:05.280 --> 00:35:10.519 in our medspa they're national trainers for threadlifts, for Allergan products like Botox and 434 00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:17.920 juveni and for galderma. Like it's amazing how much knowledge for lasers and they 435 00:35:19.119 --> 00:35:22.199 all all this stuff. I'm like, I had it done, had it 436 00:35:22.239 --> 00:35:29.400 done, had done. Listen, it's why do you think I work there? 437 00:35:29.559 --> 00:35:31.000 Oh my gosh, it must be so fun to work there, and 438 00:35:31.039 --> 00:35:34.119 I don't even have time for all of it. You know, it's like 439 00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:37.840 hard to get in and they're busy, and you know, I've I have 440 00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:40.559 on my list keeps getting longer too, But I you know, I do 441 00:35:40.760 --> 00:35:45.960 try to make sure I get at least one facial year, which is sad, 442 00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:47.840 but I will. I won't ever miss the botox. The Bottos thing 443 00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:52.800 is like that is that's a non starter. You got to do it and 444 00:35:52.800 --> 00:35:55.960 and you won't look funny. I think that this is the thing that people, 445 00:35:57.239 --> 00:36:00.159 if you've never done anything for yourself, listen to. In the cosmetic 446 00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:05.599 world, the one thing that I think people are worried about is looking crazy 447 00:36:05.880 --> 00:36:08.920 because that's who we see, Like some people who are overdone, pulled too 448 00:36:08.960 --> 00:36:13.960 tight, their lips are gargantuane, like all these things that are sort of 449 00:36:14.760 --> 00:36:17.239 you know, on the edge, which isn't normal, and it's not it's 450 00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:22.199 not normal in terms of there's people you probably walk by that on the street, 451 00:36:22.239 --> 00:36:25.079 or people you work with where they've had a little something done and you 452 00:36:25.159 --> 00:36:29.639 don't know it, but you know, the things in the media is always 453 00:36:29.639 --> 00:36:34.920 that edge, you know, and it's more about you know, looking like 454 00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:38.079 yourself but a little bit better, a little refresh, a little bit younger, 455 00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:42.960 or you know, my skin texture is better, or my you know, 456 00:36:43.480 --> 00:36:46.840 I like my curves better. We had. There's a patient of ours 457 00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:53.199 who has come on the podcast and she's got a she's a hairdresser and she 458 00:36:54.039 --> 00:36:59.719 is just darling. Her name's Kayleie and she's at the skinny BBL. So 459 00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:05.480 at the skinny BBL and she just complained and she's, you know, like, 460 00:37:05.760 --> 00:37:07.639 I don't know, not even thirty, maybe I don't know. Wait, 461 00:37:07.679 --> 00:37:13.960 what is the skinny BBL? So, okay, skinny BBL is really 462 00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:19.280 it's the Brazilian butt lift. But first of all, you don't have to 463 00:37:19.559 --> 00:37:25.119 like be super curvy to then be able to do that, because some people 464 00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:29.519 think, oh, well what if I don't have enough fat to take away 465 00:37:29.679 --> 00:37:32.679 and move it somewhere else? So there, but there is a skinny BBL, 466 00:37:32.719 --> 00:37:37.760 which is meaning that even if you're thin or thinner, there's always some 467 00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:42.559 fat to take and reposition. You're going to reposition that fat. So I 468 00:37:42.599 --> 00:37:45.920 want to do that. You don't have any fat? I have no butd 469 00:37:45.000 --> 00:37:49.039 either, Oh we'll see there you go. So they would find some fat 470 00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:52.440 and like make you a little a little booty. And and this is I 471 00:37:52.679 --> 00:38:00.079 mine's the flattest. It's terrible. But so Kayleie with her skinny bbl she 472 00:38:00.199 --> 00:38:04.400 you know, really after she had her surgery, she had been making clips 473 00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:09.159 unbeknownst to us of the whole process. And I mean, this girl was 474 00:38:09.280 --> 00:38:14.800 so elated. I mean she just she's like I was straight up and down. 475 00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:19.440 I never could wear anything like, you know, like a dress, 476 00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:22.840 because my legs were my best asset. But I always wore like a big 477 00:38:22.920 --> 00:38:25.880 jacket to cover up to try to make people not see that I was sort 478 00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:31.800 of straight. There was no waist I have. And so she had doctor 479 00:38:31.840 --> 00:38:36.719 Brahmy did her surgery and moved fat from here to there and her arms in 480 00:38:36.719 --> 00:38:39.840 her back and her you know, and she was not really heavy at all, 481 00:38:39.920 --> 00:38:45.599 and she'd been working out and dieting for years years and she's like nothing 482 00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:50.639 was changing. I was at my lowest weight and I just couldn't change my 483 00:38:50.800 --> 00:38:55.000 shape. So he did and he moved everything around. And she has a 484 00:38:55.079 --> 00:39:00.239 waist. And she said, I mean, the saddest thing she said in 485 00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:04.400 in our podcast, as she said, I never even thought I would get 486 00:39:04.400 --> 00:39:08.199 married because I'd never wear a wedding dress or she goes, and now I've 487 00:39:08.239 --> 00:39:12.199 been asked to be in my friend's wedding and I said yes, and I 488 00:39:12.239 --> 00:39:15.079 can wear a dress, and I'm so excited. And it's like those little 489 00:39:15.119 --> 00:39:19.320 things that takes up a lot of headspace, Like if it's something that you're 490 00:39:19.639 --> 00:39:22.639 obsessing about, you think about it, you think about it, and you're 491 00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:29.440 not really you know, you're not using that brain power to think of good 492 00:39:29.480 --> 00:39:32.239 things or you know, to do other things with you know, if you 493 00:39:32.280 --> 00:39:36.199 walk in your closet and you hate it, you're not going to fit in 494 00:39:36.280 --> 00:39:39.360 anything, or you don't like the way certain things fit on you, and 495 00:39:39.400 --> 00:39:44.840 you can change that twenty twenty four. Do it. At least go in 496 00:39:44.880 --> 00:39:49.079 and get a consultation, because that's free, right, it's free. Yeah. 497 00:39:49.119 --> 00:39:54.159 And Monique is the host of the La Joya Cosmetic podcast, which has 498 00:39:54.239 --> 00:39:59.079 been now is it three years now? Almost? Yeah, we're coming up 499 00:39:59.079 --> 00:40:02.639 on three yeah, and it is just really it's skyrocketing. You guys are 500 00:40:02.679 --> 00:40:07.880 doing great. We are. We've been talking about so many different types of 501 00:40:07.960 --> 00:40:13.519 procedures and we have lots of patients who come on as guests. We've had 502 00:40:13.559 --> 00:40:16.880 patients husbands come on as guests, you know, like thinking, well, 503 00:40:16.920 --> 00:40:20.760 if my wife gets this surgery, what's going to happen? You know, 504 00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:23.039 because they don't know, You don't know, you don't know what you're what's 505 00:40:23.119 --> 00:40:28.400 that road ahead going to look like? And I think we've always believed in 506 00:40:28.480 --> 00:40:32.079 patient education. The more that we can arm you to make a really good 507 00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:37.679 decision, that's that's what's most important. Do you know how to pick a 508 00:40:37.719 --> 00:40:40.199 board? Certified plastic surgeon? Do you know what that means? And do 509 00:40:40.199 --> 00:40:44.639 you know what to look for that aren't the like real boards? Do you 510 00:40:44.760 --> 00:40:49.320 know what the accreditation of the facility? What is that? You know? 511 00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:54.360 Is it down in a hallway? Which before nineteen ninety six surgeons could do 512 00:40:55.039 --> 00:41:00.280 surgery in this house. Prior to nineteen ninety six, there was no there 513 00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:06.920 were no laws about where in terms of in terms of like the laws on 514 00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:13.840 where that could be performed and the level of instrumentation or the level of you 515 00:41:13.880 --> 00:41:15.960 know, all your oxygen and all the different things that they need in the 516 00:41:16.000 --> 00:41:21.199 oor to make it safe. So there was I mean, there was you 517 00:41:21.199 --> 00:41:24.400 know, the was the wild, wild West. So in ninety six they 518 00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:28.480 came up and they're like, okay, every facility has to be accredited, 519 00:41:28.760 --> 00:41:35.039 and so you know there's you just never want to take a short cut with 520 00:41:35.119 --> 00:41:40.199 your health no any way or cheap out or so and it's like there's so 521 00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:45.000 much to choose from here, and so this is why we really felt it 522 00:41:45.079 --> 00:41:51.239 was important to explain to people or and help empower them to be able to 523 00:41:51.239 --> 00:41:53.320 make a good decision. So like, do I feel comfortable with this doctor? 524 00:41:53.320 --> 00:41:59.039 Do I know that you know? Could this doctor do this procedure in 525 00:41:59.079 --> 00:42:04.480 a hospital? Are are they? Are they licensed stories to hospital? Give 526 00:42:04.559 --> 00:42:08.559 them permission to do that procedure in the hospital, because that's where you find 527 00:42:08.559 --> 00:42:12.679 the outliers of the doctors who, oh I can do it here in my 528 00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:15.920 or for you, but like could I do it across its scripts? And 529 00:42:16.159 --> 00:42:20.960 sure the answers know it's not who you want to go to. So if 530 00:42:20.960 --> 00:42:25.400 you're authorized to perform that procedure in the hospital, that's that's an important thing. 531 00:42:25.440 --> 00:42:30.199 But we have a whole page on the website explaining you know, what 532 00:42:30.239 --> 00:42:32.079 does board certification? I mean, what you know, what do you look 533 00:42:32.119 --> 00:42:36.559 for in the facility? What about anesthesia? You know a lot of people 534 00:42:36.599 --> 00:42:40.400 are scared about anesthesia and they think maybe local anesthesia. Oh that's safer because 535 00:42:40.400 --> 00:42:45.199 it's local. It seems less scary, but it actually isn't till we love 536 00:42:45.280 --> 00:42:49.400 being put under. We did fine. So we've done i think one or 537 00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:54.119 two podcasts on anesthesia just about that, and one of our anesthesiologists came on 538 00:42:54.320 --> 00:43:00.559 and really helped debunk some myths, talked about you know, just some basic 539 00:43:00.679 --> 00:43:05.920 education of like it doesn't need to be scary and you're actually asleep anyway. 540 00:43:06.000 --> 00:43:07.639 So just like you say, exactly, Yeah, So chances are if there's 541 00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:12.760 something that you've been interested in or have questions about, like a procedure, 542 00:43:12.920 --> 00:43:15.599 you've done a podcast on it. Pretty much pretty much, yeah, pretty 543 00:43:15.639 --> 00:43:20.199 much on anything, on everything. Yeah, and talk to all the doctors. 544 00:43:20.239 --> 00:43:22.039 I know you talked to many of the doctors and it's it's a good 545 00:43:22.079 --> 00:43:27.119 way to get to know them. And when doctor Salazar, he said that 546 00:43:27.159 --> 00:43:30.559 one of his patients came in and she started crying, like right away, 547 00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:35.880 He's like, what what happened? Or is everything okay? She goes, 548 00:43:36.400 --> 00:43:38.480 I feel like, I'm just so happy I've met you, and she felt 549 00:43:38.519 --> 00:43:43.519 like shed you know, met a rock star. Oh, but you know, 550 00:43:43.719 --> 00:43:45.360 I mean, and they are rock stars, they are amazing, they're 551 00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:51.840 wonderful people. But I think she felt like she knew him and she and 552 00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:54.239 she did a lot of research. And sometimes it's scary to make the first 553 00:43:54.280 --> 00:43:59.039 phone call or to make that first contact and you're like, I don't know, 554 00:43:59.440 --> 00:44:00.679 am I gonna like them? Well, you can get to know them 555 00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:04.760 on the podcast, and that again, it's so on YouTube. We have 556 00:44:04.800 --> 00:44:08.159 the video versions. I think we started doing that, I don't know fourteen 557 00:44:08.239 --> 00:44:12.719 or fifteen months ago with having video, and prior to that it was all 558 00:44:12.760 --> 00:44:15.679 audio. But yeah, it's we've talked about everything, and I think it 559 00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:22.519 is really helpful to debunk myths or to just make you feel a little safer, 560 00:44:22.559 --> 00:44:25.519 and then you can be armed with that good knowledge and go out and 561 00:44:25.880 --> 00:44:31.880 find the right doctor for you and wherever that doctor is. And although I 562 00:44:31.920 --> 00:44:37.440 will preface that by saying wherever that doctor is okay, maybe not in Turkey 563 00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:44.920 or somewhere outside of the country, only because if something goes wrong, you 564 00:44:44.960 --> 00:44:49.960 don't you're you're back here, the doctor's over there, or whether there's issues 565 00:44:49.960 --> 00:44:54.159 with travel, and so sometimes I think we do get tempted. I love 566 00:44:54.199 --> 00:45:00.400 a good deal don't. That is not something you should. But this is 567 00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:06.079 something that is really really scary and well I think also in other countries, 568 00:45:06.599 --> 00:45:12.639 their level of accreditation or whatever is vastly different than it is, right. 569 00:45:12.719 --> 00:45:15.199 Their laws are different in terms of what they make you have. Yeah, 570 00:45:15.199 --> 00:45:19.920 I mean if you go state to state, it's like hr laws are different 571 00:45:19.960 --> 00:45:22.480 in Ohio than they are in California. I mean, so it's you're very 572 00:45:22.559 --> 00:45:27.079 right, and there's great doctors everywhere, and there's also bad doctors everywhere, 573 00:45:27.079 --> 00:45:30.920 and they could be right down the street really good or really bad. So 574 00:45:30.039 --> 00:45:36.559 that's not that so much about the country. It's more about your safety in 575 00:45:37.079 --> 00:45:39.880 flying in you know, if you get home, if you get back here 576 00:45:39.960 --> 00:45:44.079 and then you have an infection, who's taking care of you. We're not 577 00:45:44.159 --> 00:45:46.559 doing that. We're not doing that. We're going to La joya cosmetic surgery 578 00:45:46.599 --> 00:45:50.440 center. And here's what you're gonna do. If you because this is the 579 00:45:50.559 --> 00:45:53.320 year of you, you're gonna if you do some research. Go on the 580 00:45:53.360 --> 00:45:59.880 website. It's glamfam dot com. There's a treatment planner on there that you 581 00:46:00.119 --> 00:46:06.239 can see what like what things that you could get done, things that you 582 00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:10.159 are interested in, and what things are available. There are thousands of reviews, 583 00:46:10.400 --> 00:46:15.559 thousands on thousands on thousands getting closed. We have almost or maybe we've 584 00:46:15.559 --> 00:46:22.639 just surpassed ten thousand five star five stars reviews because we've been surveying our patients. 585 00:46:22.840 --> 00:46:24.440 We used to do it with paper surveys, so we weren't counting those 586 00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:29.000 ones at the time, but now we have a third party that does all 587 00:46:29.039 --> 00:46:32.960 our So after every consultation, every patient is getting a survey on how is 588 00:46:34.000 --> 00:46:37.159 that consultation because we want that process to be really good and if it needs 589 00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:39.519 improvement, we want to know. We can't fix it if we don't know. 590 00:46:40.000 --> 00:46:45.639 And then after surgery as well, and so you can look by every 591 00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:47.960 procedure. So say you go to the LiPo section page, you're going to 592 00:46:49.039 --> 00:46:54.480 see real reviews from our patients about that procedure. You'll see which doctor did 593 00:46:54.519 --> 00:46:59.360 it, and then when you go to the doctor pages, you'll see links 594 00:46:59.400 --> 00:47:01.760 to all their reviews. So if you wanted to see okay doctor Bryster, 595 00:47:02.519 --> 00:47:06.440 you know, I want to see what her reviews are. You can you 596 00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:08.800 can learn and before and afters right and all of it. Oh, I 597 00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:15.199 love before and after pictures and something that you wouldn't necessarily know. So our 598 00:47:15.280 --> 00:47:17.800 gallery you can you know, filter by doctor, filter by procedure. But 599 00:47:19.599 --> 00:47:22.199 there's a lot of people, and I don't blame them, who might not 600 00:47:22.320 --> 00:47:27.559 want to share their photos on the web. Right, so not you know, 601 00:47:27.639 --> 00:47:30.440 sometimes you don't mind sharing your friends or but there's a lot of patients 602 00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:37.119 who will share their photos for other patients in a consultation. Oh so even 603 00:47:37.159 --> 00:47:40.280 if you so, what you see on our web gallery is one thing, 604 00:47:40.639 --> 00:47:45.159 but then there's thousands more pictures we are allowed to show you when you have 605 00:47:45.199 --> 00:47:50.320 a consultation, and so there's if you don't see it, or if it's 606 00:47:50.360 --> 00:47:54.519 something that's like you know, the lady bits. We do some vaginal rejuvenation, 607 00:47:54.719 --> 00:47:59.960 women's rejuvenation, and we're not gonna put those on the website. Sorry, 608 00:48:00.519 --> 00:48:07.800 right, I know how much you love it, Captain fantastic. Yeah, 609 00:48:07.840 --> 00:48:10.960 I know, yeah, listen, you know, but there are some 610 00:48:12.079 --> 00:48:16.639 things that it's better in a consultation have the doctor explain what's you know and 611 00:48:16.679 --> 00:48:22.320 so, and especially things for facial surgery, because you know, if I'm 612 00:48:22.320 --> 00:48:24.880 looking at somebody's tummy, I don't know who's tummy it is or their breasts. 613 00:48:24.960 --> 00:48:28.719 Okay, good to know, but you don't know. But if it's 614 00:48:28.760 --> 00:48:32.440 a face lift or it's eyelid lift or next surgery, they're putting their whole 615 00:48:32.440 --> 00:48:35.800 face out there, and not everybody wants to do that, which is totally 616 00:48:35.880 --> 00:48:39.320 understandable. So yeah, there's more things you can see at a consultation. 617 00:48:39.679 --> 00:48:45.239 And and the other thing we do. We have a specials page Specials and 618 00:48:45.320 --> 00:48:50.760 events, and so it has whatever specials we've got going on, and then 619 00:48:50.800 --> 00:48:55.840 it has upcoming events and past events and all our past events. Have you 620 00:48:55.880 --> 00:49:01.880 know, the doctor the topics we're talking aboutout videos, before and after pictures, 621 00:49:01.880 --> 00:49:05.480 and it's and you can play those all on demand, so you fill 622 00:49:05.519 --> 00:49:07.719 out a little form and then you can play it on demand. So that's 623 00:49:07.719 --> 00:49:09.920 something good too. If you're like, oh, shoot, I missed the 624 00:49:09.920 --> 00:49:14.119 one about all therapy, or ooh I missed the one about you know, 625 00:49:14.199 --> 00:49:17.599 breast augmentation, you can you can play it on demand. So go to 626 00:49:17.639 --> 00:49:22.480 the website, get the phone number, make the phone call. This is 627 00:49:22.519 --> 00:49:24.400 the year of you. You're going to take care of yourself. You're going 628 00:49:24.480 --> 00:49:29.159 to put yourself first. You're going to get that free consultation and then you're 629 00:49:29.159 --> 00:49:32.800 going to book your surgery or your botox or whatever you want to do, 630 00:49:34.119 --> 00:49:37.000 and you know what, you can finance it so you don't have to pay 631 00:49:37.039 --> 00:49:38.519 for it right away, So you're gonna get it done this year. I'm 632 00:49:38.599 --> 00:49:42.880 really passionate about that. I really feel like this is the year that we 633 00:49:43.199 --> 00:49:47.519 should, especially as moms and you know, taking care of everybody else. 634 00:49:47.559 --> 00:49:51.519 It's like, yeah, you know, let's not feel guilty. Okay, 635 00:49:51.519 --> 00:49:53.599 and there's let's not feel guilty about it. So two more things I want 636 00:49:53.599 --> 00:49:55.159 to say if we have time to do, yes, of course, yeah, 637 00:49:55.159 --> 00:49:58.039 okay, two things I want to tell you about. One I'm not 638 00:49:58.039 --> 00:50:00.639 supposed to tell you about it, so I'll hold that one for second, 639 00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:04.119 okay, and help my boss isn't watching. Oh I'm so excited. This 640 00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:07.000 is exciting. It's almost as exciting as Thursday, which I want to hear 641 00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:13.159 about this airport debacle. So two things. So, one new thing that 642 00:50:13.199 --> 00:50:20.199 we've had this year is called ella core And if you ever see those stars 643 00:50:20.239 --> 00:50:24.000 who've had four facelifts, their mouth is like by their ears, you know, 644 00:50:24.119 --> 00:50:30.719 it's like wind tunnel effect. Well, some very ingenious surgeons came up 645 00:50:30.800 --> 00:50:34.880 with a solution for that, and it's called ella core e l L A 646 00:50:35.199 --> 00:50:39.239 c R. And it's kind of the idea of what micro needling would be 647 00:50:39.280 --> 00:50:45.519 in a medspa. So lots of little micro needles, you know, injuring, 648 00:50:45.639 --> 00:50:51.960 making a superficial injury to the face to help stimulate growth factors and collagen 649 00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:55.639 and you know, texture improvements. So taking that idea of like a little 650 00:50:55.679 --> 00:51:02.119 stamp with lots of little needles and taking it to a technology where those needles 651 00:51:02.119 --> 00:51:08.159 are actually hollow and they go in and they pull out, they extract some 652 00:51:08.480 --> 00:51:15.119 tissue and so it's something that is done in this surgery realm. It's not 653 00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:20.159 a huge deal, but it's not kind of medspa. So it's like surgery 654 00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:22.760 light. Is this what doctor Salas I was talking about at the party? 655 00:51:24.039 --> 00:51:31.039 I want to but you're this one. No, this is exciting. So 656 00:51:31.119 --> 00:51:36.039 what is so exciting because if you think about that, especially the lower So 657 00:51:36.079 --> 00:51:38.360 it's creative for the lower face. And we're one of only fifty practices in 658 00:51:38.400 --> 00:51:43.519 the country wow, who have it because they wanted it in the hands of 659 00:51:44.000 --> 00:51:47.599 board certified plastic surgeons who are really good and so we were chosen, which 660 00:51:47.679 --> 00:51:52.239 we love. And it's really meant to address sort of this lower face, 661 00:51:52.599 --> 00:51:58.039 neck, jowl area because if you pull, if you think about how do 662 00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:00.679 I smooth that out? You could put fillers there, but that doesn't work 663 00:52:00.719 --> 00:52:05.119 for very long, and it can look really weird and your mouth looks super 664 00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:10.079 distorted. You end up with this like bizarre top shelf lip thing because you're 665 00:52:10.079 --> 00:52:15.320 trying to smooth those wrinkles out or you're trying to add volume. So this 666 00:52:16.920 --> 00:52:22.800 technology is going to remove up to eight percent of the tissue across that area 667 00:52:22.840 --> 00:52:28.920 wherever you're treating, but mostly it's made for around here, and then your 668 00:52:28.920 --> 00:52:34.039 skin just sort of heals back and after a few days and then you do 669 00:52:34.119 --> 00:52:39.000 that three times, so it's not non invasive. It is invasive because it's 670 00:52:39.039 --> 00:52:44.159 going out, it's taking out, but it really there's nothing else out there. 671 00:52:44.320 --> 00:52:46.519 You could do surgery, but again you're pulling from a far direct, 672 00:52:47.039 --> 00:52:51.280 a far distance. You know, if you're thinking about trying to address the 673 00:52:51.440 --> 00:52:55.000 mouth area or the jowl area, you can do things for a while, 674 00:52:55.360 --> 00:53:00.559 but they won't work forever. So threads or lasers or fillers or but you 675 00:53:00.719 --> 00:53:05.480 just can't. But elicorp or something that eli cour So my aunt had it 676 00:53:05.519 --> 00:53:08.119 and I had her on the podcast Marie and she's had two. I don't 677 00:53:08.119 --> 00:53:12.760 think she's had her third one, but she had two and then the holidays 678 00:53:12.800 --> 00:53:15.400 came so she was like, I but you know, she's going to turn 679 00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:21.360 eighty, so she's had two facelifts in her lifetime. Incredible she does so 680 00:53:21.480 --> 00:53:24.960 in forty years she had two facelifts an easy access. Most people would be 681 00:53:25.079 --> 00:53:27.880 like, well, why would you need another one? She's like, I 682 00:53:27.920 --> 00:53:30.159 need a little mini touch up. But a lot of times she was trying 683 00:53:30.159 --> 00:53:34.880 to deal with this area here, so she had the elakor loves it. 684 00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:38.320 We've also used it on younger people, so people who might think I'm aging, 685 00:53:38.360 --> 00:53:43.000 but I'm not ready for any facial surgery, right, And that's a 686 00:53:43.079 --> 00:53:46.400 really great group of people. The one of the inventors we had on the 687 00:53:46.440 --> 00:53:53.400 podcast with us with doctor Brami, and he was saying that his girlfriend came 688 00:53:53.440 --> 00:53:58.320 in on a Friday and at the end of the day he did her elakore. 689 00:53:58.719 --> 00:54:00.519 On Sunday, they were working out in the gym and she had makeup 690 00:54:00.519 --> 00:54:05.639 on and not everybody's going to heal that fast, sure, because my aunt 691 00:54:05.639 --> 00:54:07.400 who's almost eighty, and she was like, no, it was more like 692 00:54:07.440 --> 00:54:10.519 a week I was going to just ask you what the recovery time. Yeah, 693 00:54:10.599 --> 00:54:15.800 so I think somewhere between three to five days, but it and then 694 00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:21.280 how far apart are the sessions. I think it can be maybe six weeks 695 00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:27.320 or two apart. Yeah, okay, yeah, but usually three three treatments 696 00:54:27.400 --> 00:54:30.760 is kind of what most people who want. If you really want to address 697 00:54:30.800 --> 00:54:32.880 it, you might be happy after one, but if you really are trying 698 00:54:32.880 --> 00:54:37.000 to address something very specific. So that's kind of a cool new technology and 699 00:54:37.079 --> 00:54:45.960 it really can kind of help with this extra marrionette lines the gobled the Gobbledygoogle. 700 00:54:45.119 --> 00:54:51.559 It also sounds like it might be a good procedure for somebody that's had 701 00:54:51.599 --> 00:54:54.880 a very dramatic weight loss and they have a lot of that. You are 702 00:54:55.280 --> 00:55:00.320 right there with me, okay, So so many many people are talking about 703 00:55:00.360 --> 00:55:05.920 ozempic. Face. This is that term ozempic. I haven't heard this term. 704 00:55:06.159 --> 00:55:12.119 Oh yes, So the Semaglue tide is ozempic or moonjarro. There's a 705 00:55:12.159 --> 00:55:16.440 couple of different ones. It's the injectable weight loss and it's for it's for 706 00:55:16.519 --> 00:55:23.280 diabetes, and so I unfortunately am a Type two diabetic. Lovely Lifestyle Choices 707 00:55:23.519 --> 00:55:29.519 catch Up with you and being overweight and struggling with weight my whole life. 708 00:55:29.880 --> 00:55:35.679 So in the last two years, I've lost forty four pounds and now I'm 709 00:55:35.719 --> 00:55:38.280 like, wait a minute, what's all this? You know, like you 710 00:55:38.280 --> 00:55:43.840 don't think about that, yeah, or like you know, like things are 711 00:55:43.960 --> 00:55:50.119 drooping a little bit. But it's so one of the things is that, 712 00:55:50.400 --> 00:55:52.400 yes, surgery is great for that, and elcor can be really good for 713 00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:58.360 that, depending on where where your sure stuff is loose. Well, because 714 00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:05.880 especially since this whole zembic thing has taken off, and it's so dramatic and 715 00:56:05.920 --> 00:56:07.800 it's so quick, a lot of it's very quick. For me, it 716 00:56:07.920 --> 00:56:14.119 was like quick and not quick and kind of and then they kind of change 717 00:56:14.119 --> 00:56:19.519 your dosage and then there's a shortage. So but you know what, I 718 00:56:19.559 --> 00:56:22.840 know, then where you really really see it or where I've seen it is 719 00:56:23.239 --> 00:56:29.519 especially when people that don't really need it do it and they get that really 720 00:56:29.639 --> 00:56:35.199 gaunt followed out. If you're already at a weight that would be considered good, 721 00:56:35.599 --> 00:56:37.719 right, yeah, then why are you going to go down ten more 722 00:56:37.760 --> 00:56:40.480 pounds? Right? But yeah, it's it really works, and so that's 723 00:56:40.519 --> 00:56:44.360 the thing I'm not supposed to really talk about yet because it's not really I 724 00:56:44.559 --> 00:56:49.280 launched it. We haven't launched it yet, but we are adding that a 725 00:56:49.320 --> 00:56:53.079 skinny shot a skinny shot component. And really part of the reason is, 726 00:56:53.320 --> 00:56:58.360 you know, so it's going to be physicians supervised and we'll be starting it 727 00:56:58.440 --> 00:57:00.639 up kind of in a slow launch in the next month. Wait wait, 728 00:57:00.639 --> 00:57:05.159 wait, this is different from elkoor. So you're going to do with something 729 00:57:05.360 --> 00:57:10.639 that's a skinny shot like like like elikor light like ozempic, like ozempic right, 730 00:57:12.039 --> 00:57:15.559 like ozempics. Because you know, we have a lot of patients and 731 00:57:15.719 --> 00:57:21.159 especially I think the women who your mom's and it's hard to get that body 732 00:57:21.199 --> 00:57:28.480 back. And I completely understand because that it was for me after the first 733 00:57:28.559 --> 00:57:32.760 kid was really not a problem. Getting back after my second it was like 734 00:57:32.840 --> 00:57:37.920 impossible. And then hormonal changes and so like say, you want to do 735 00:57:37.960 --> 00:57:40.000 something about your body, and the doctor says, well, you know you 736 00:57:40.119 --> 00:57:45.679 really would be You'll get the best result if you're within close to your goal 737 00:57:45.719 --> 00:57:51.000 weight. Well, sometimes it's you know, twenty twenty five pounds that you're 738 00:57:51.079 --> 00:57:52.719 like, God, I just can't do it. My goal weight is my 739 00:57:52.800 --> 00:57:59.840 birth weight. God, your driver's license weight from when you were fifteen. 740 00:58:00.840 --> 00:58:05.960 Yeah, well that is kind of a we're going to have that for our 741 00:58:06.039 --> 00:58:09.599 patients and have that as something that you know, because I know there's a 742 00:58:09.639 --> 00:58:13.159 lot of places out there that where you can get it, but you think 743 00:58:13.199 --> 00:58:17.360 that will like in the next month, So I would even let your listeners 744 00:58:17.400 --> 00:58:22.719 because I trust you guys to you can email me, So it's Monique at 745 00:58:22.920 --> 00:58:29.679 LJCSC dot com and I'll we'll put that on We'll put that on our website. 746 00:58:29.719 --> 00:58:32.280 I'll keep a list because we're when we're ready to launch and when we're 747 00:58:32.320 --> 00:58:36.239 ready to say okay, if you want to try it, and we're going 748 00:58:36.320 --> 00:58:39.480 to do some webinars so you know, you can learn like what's the deal, 749 00:58:39.639 --> 00:58:44.159 what's the you like, we want the facts out there because there's a 750 00:58:44.199 --> 00:58:49.280 lot of misconceptions out there about it and who's it right for and what if 751 00:58:49.320 --> 00:58:52.320 you you know, one lady said, well, I heard you just gain 752 00:58:52.360 --> 00:58:54.199 all your weight back, and I'm like, well, my hairdresser did it, 753 00:58:54.280 --> 00:58:58.440 and her doctor wouldn't let her go for very long and she's kept it 754 00:58:58.480 --> 00:59:00.159 off for a year and a half. She looks amaze and she lost like 755 00:59:00.159 --> 00:59:05.639 fifty pounds. So you can't you can, you know, keep it off, 756 00:59:05.679 --> 00:59:07.800 and that's part partly why we want to make sure there's a whole program 757 00:59:08.159 --> 00:59:12.480 around it. It's not just the drug. Well it's very responsible yeah as 758 00:59:12.480 --> 00:59:15.119 well. Yeah, but I think it's nice because then you can also you 759 00:59:15.119 --> 00:59:20.440 know, then if you do have that kind of goal of maybe a mommy 760 00:59:20.480 --> 00:59:25.360 makeover or certain things on your list, then again, the closer you are 761 00:59:25.400 --> 00:59:30.239 to your goal weight, that better you're going to heal, the less risk 762 00:59:30.320 --> 00:59:34.679 you are in surgery. If you have a high BMI and that's your body 763 00:59:34.719 --> 00:59:37.000 mass index and we have there's a you can google it on you know, 764 00:59:37.039 --> 00:59:42.039 just look for BMI calculator, but we have one on our website too, 765 00:59:42.159 --> 00:59:45.119 and you can then see, you know, what is your BMI. And 766 00:59:45.159 --> 00:59:47.559 if your BMI is too high, they don't want to have you in the 767 00:59:47.639 --> 00:59:53.199 surgery room because it's more risky. So there's ways to you know, it's 768 00:59:53.239 --> 00:59:58.599 going to be health benefits on top of maybe getting you to that goal. 769 00:59:58.719 --> 01:00:01.400 So then then you can do that surgery you were thinking about.

I hate saying it, but whatever, 783 01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:22.719 But you know, sometimes doing things at our age takes a little courage. 784 01:01:22.239 --> 01:01:29.079 And whether it's trying something new or breaking or breaking a old habit. I 785 01:01:29.119 --> 01:01:32.119 have a lot of bad habits and I'm like, I'm lazy. I'm sorry, 786 01:01:32.199 --> 01:01:35.880 people, I am, I'm really lazy. But that's not good, 787 01:01:35.920 --> 01:01:37.719 that's not healthy. Like I need to build some good habits.

You can find it now on YouTube too. And if you 799 01:02:37.880 --> 01:02:43.280 have any questions about any kind of surgery, botox, you know, even 800 01:02:43.360 --> 01:02:47.239 facial stuff the doctors, you have an episode on it.

He's been 805 01:03:07.440 --> 01:03:13.079 getting is no same. It's amazing changing, very cool, and there's some 806 01:03:13.159 --> 01:03:16.519 new stuff out. Skin Viv is one. It's an injectible but it helps 807 01:03:16.559 --> 01:03:23.239 with skin like glowiness. Oh injectable, I want it, Oh boy. 808 01:03:22.760 --> 01:03:29.440 And so skin viv And then but the skin Medica it's the same company, 809 01:03:30.000 --> 01:03:32.840 skin Medica products, I mean, and they are a little bit of an 810 01:03:32.840 --> 01:03:37.280 investment, but they do make a difference. It is there's nothing like spending 811 01:03:37.320 --> 01:03:40.639 money on something that doesn't work. But if you stick with it and you're 812 01:03:40.639 --> 01:03:47.079 really religious about good skincare, that medical grade skincare, yeah, that is 813 01:03:47.360 --> 01:03:52.920 because that's skain changing. I think it is a game changer. It's not 814 01:03:52.960 --> 01:03:58.159 the stuff at Costcode. I had a friend asked me that one time she 815 01:03:58.199 --> 01:04:02.159 goes. You know, they have like the three pack at Costco. No. 816 01:04:02.400 --> 01:04:05.079 Sorry, I wish I could say yes, because they'd be so much 817 01:04:05.079 --> 01:04:09.679 easier. Yes, right, but it's sometimes that doesn't know it is night 818 01:04:09.719 --> 01:04:14.360 and day everything else just wet in the trash.
