1 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,440 Speaker 1: Hello you guys, Welcome back to another episode of the 2 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,519 Hawkerel Energy Podcast. I'm your host, Kaylie, and this is 3 00:00:19,559 --> 00:00:22,320 your weekly reminder that it's a new day, a new week, 4 00:00:22,359 --> 00:00:24,559 a new mindset, and another day for you to become 5 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,160 the Hawtrel Energy you want to attract. Hello you guys, 6 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,640 Happy July. We have a lot to cover because I 7 00:00:32,679 --> 00:00:35,719 feel like one of the biggest life updates that has 8 00:00:35,759 --> 00:00:39,320 happened recently is something that I've had to keep very 9 00:00:39,439 --> 00:00:44,320 quiet for privacy reasons, safety reasons, So that's why I 10 00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:47,640 haven't really shared with you guys what's been fully going on. 11 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,840 But Zach and I sold our house. We've officially sold 12 00:00:52,439 --> 00:00:57,280 our first home, which is very bittersweet. For the past 13 00:00:57,679 --> 00:00:59,679 thirty five days, I think it was on the market 14 00:00:59,719 --> 00:01:03,560 for We've been obviously very low key about it on 15 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,359 social media and all that, because obviously for privacy reasons, 16 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,560 I didn't want my address leaked, even though some people 17 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,000 did actually find it and anyways made sure to let 18 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,519 me know that they had my address, which is just 19 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:21,079 creepy obviously, like not something that you really want people 20 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,359 to have access to. But anyways, obviously, like we have 21 00:01:24,439 --> 00:01:28,519 a good security system here, so I definitely take our 22 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:33,439 safety with precaution. But anyways, it's exciting news that we 23 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,959 have officially sold their house, and I feel like it's 24 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,680 been kind of hard to record the podcast, and that's 25 00:01:38,719 --> 00:01:41,120 kind of also. Another reason why I decided to take 26 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,439 a step back is because we had so many showings guys, 27 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,239 and I felt like it happened throughout the week. It 28 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,280 was never on the weekend, I think because with the 29 00:01:49,359 --> 00:01:53,040 summer being in full effect, everybody's doing things on the weekends, 30 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,480 right like cottage weekends, camping, whatever the case may be. 31 00:01:56,519 --> 00:01:58,680 So I feel like all the showings were between Monday 32 00:01:58,719 --> 00:02:02,480 and Friday. And so imagine me on a Wednesday or 33 00:02:02,519 --> 00:02:05,640 Tuesday trying to get a podcast episode up. My house 34 00:02:05,719 --> 00:02:07,920 needs to be spotless. Everything needs to be clean. It 35 00:02:07,959 --> 00:02:10,439 can't look like anyone's lived in the house. Basically, So 36 00:02:11,199 --> 00:02:14,000 every single night before a showing or every single morning, 37 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,680 I would literally spend an hour just like making sure 38 00:02:16,719 --> 00:02:19,560 everything was clean, making sure like our stove wasn't dirty, 39 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,639 that we used for breakfasts in the morning, making sure, 40 00:02:22,719 --> 00:02:26,120 you know, everything was tidy. Vacuums can't have anything out 41 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,240 like my microphone, my work stuff, like my tripod or anything, right, 42 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,120 So it just made it really difficult to like put 43 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,800 that pressure on myself of like, you know, if there 44 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,039 was a showing on a Tuesday at one o'clock, which 45 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,919 is like typically when I record the podcast, it was difficult. Right. 46 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,800 So it's like, Okay, I can't be in the house 47 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,400 for like three hours because I leave an hour before 48 00:02:46,439 --> 00:02:49,520 a showing. The showing's an hour time slot, and then 49 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,159 I usually wait like thirty minutes to forty minutes to 50 00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:54,120 come back, and like there's three hours on my day 51 00:02:54,199 --> 00:02:57,039 right there that I've completely lost. And so that was 52 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,759 kind of another reason why I decided to take a 53 00:02:58,759 --> 00:03:00,639 step back from the podcast was just because it was 54 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,960 too hard to manage work with the showings and also 55 00:03:05,159 --> 00:03:07,919 balance TikTok, Instagram, YouTube. You guys are the gist. But 56 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,560 another reason why I kind of also haven't been that 57 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,000 active on YouTube because again, our house was for sale, 58 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,439 and I feel like we were just running on a 59 00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:18,719 bunch of different things. It's quite a busy time and 60 00:03:18,759 --> 00:03:20,680 I don't know if anyone can relate or if someone 61 00:03:20,719 --> 00:03:23,719 has sold a house ever, but I don't ever want 62 00:03:23,759 --> 00:03:26,520 to do it again. It was awful. I think just 63 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,960 like having to keep the house clean and not really 64 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,919 be here too much. It just was kind of difficult, 65 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,080 and as a routine person, it does kind of suck 66 00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:36,039 not being in your house, Like I felt like I 67 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,159 was constantly going to my parents' house, and that made 68 00:03:38,199 --> 00:03:41,360 it really difficult for someone who literally films their life 69 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,800 in their house. So there was obviously some obstacle courses 70 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,120 that we had to kind of conquer. But on the 71 00:03:48,159 --> 00:03:52,159 bright side, it's sold and we are very very happy 72 00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:55,479 with the couple that bought it, and on to the 73 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,759 next step. Guys, we're officially waiting for the new house. Thankfully, 74 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,719 we were able to make the closing date of this 75 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,719 house close to our new house date, so it's kind 76 00:04:06,719 --> 00:04:09,520 of nice that we won't have to like live somewhere 77 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,319 for a short period of time before moving into the 78 00:04:11,319 --> 00:04:14,039 new house. So it's kind of nice that we have 79 00:04:14,319 --> 00:04:17,279 that all figured out as well. So I haven't told anyone, 80 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,800 and I haven't honestly shared anything on social media yet. 81 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,959 I'm kind of just keeping it between us, which is 82 00:04:22,319 --> 00:04:24,240 here on the podcast. I'm not going to share it 83 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,399 on Instagram and TikTok probably till the soul sign is 84 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,439 on our real estate sign at the front of our house, 85 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,680 but just wanted to let you guys know because I 86 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,040 always try and let the podcast girlies know the inside 87 00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:38,800 scoop before everyone else does, because you guys are my girls, 88 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,240 and I just felt like I should share it with 89 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,639 you guys. Besides selling our house, I've been watching Love 90 00:04:44,639 --> 00:04:48,160 Island literally every single day, and I'm beyond hooked. Guys. 91 00:04:48,319 --> 00:04:50,600 I thought I wasn't going to love it. Like the 92 00:04:50,639 --> 00:04:53,319 first few episodes, I was kind of like, this is boring. 93 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,279 I don't really see the hype. I don't know what 94 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,680 everyone's talking about. And then Kasamore hit and boom, I 95 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,040 just got locked in. The drama started the hype between 96 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,319 just like loving certain couples and like feeling sad for 97 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,040 the couples that didn't, you know, end up staying together 98 00:05:11,199 --> 00:05:14,160 and whatever. Like I have actually like gotten hooked and 99 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:18,360 have like definitely have like a motion towards certain couples 100 00:05:18,399 --> 00:05:20,759 where I'm like, I love this couple, I hate this couple, 101 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,160 I hate this guy, I love this girl. Like I 102 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,360 feel like I'm like finding like people that I like 103 00:05:26,399 --> 00:05:29,279 and people that I dislike. And anyways, the whole show 104 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,319 is a very interesting concept This is my first time 105 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,319 ever watching Love Island, and I didn't really know what 106 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,480 to expect. To be honest, a lot of PDA it's 107 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,800 kind of crazy, and I'm not typically into those shows, 108 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,480 but I do love reality TV when it comes to 109 00:05:43,519 --> 00:05:46,319 like drama all that. I used to watch Big Brother 110 00:05:46,439 --> 00:05:48,720 all the time and just kind of like fell out 111 00:05:48,759 --> 00:05:49,800 of love with it. So I feel like this is 112 00:05:49,879 --> 00:05:52,240 kind of like a good replacement for that type of 113 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,920 reality TV show, you know, still having like somewhat competitions 114 00:05:55,959 --> 00:05:59,240 and relationships and all that. So I don't know, I 115 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,680 feel like I'm deaf hooked on it now. I wasn't 116 00:06:01,879 --> 00:06:05,279 maybe two weeks ago, but now I'm definitely loving the 117 00:06:05,319 --> 00:06:08,120 show so far, and I'm hooked. So I love that 118 00:06:08,199 --> 00:06:10,480 there's a new episode basically every single night. I feel 119 00:06:10,519 --> 00:06:13,319 like that's super fun. Zach is also hooked. I don't 120 00:06:13,319 --> 00:06:15,319 think he would ever admit that to people, but he's 121 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,839 one hundred percent hooked. He will not let me watch 122 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,759 an episode without him, which is so funny because he 123 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,519 obviously has activities that he does, like he runs some 124 00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:26,600 softball teams, and I'm like, oh, I want to watch 125 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,240 this tonight, and He's like, well, no, I have a 126 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,160 softball game. I'm like, oh my god, I can't even 127 00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:33,319 watch the episode without him. He said, well, yeah, you 128 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,519 have to wait for me. So I just find it 129 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,000 funny how our husbands and boyfriends say they're not into 130 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,839 something and then as soon as they realize that they 131 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,600 actually like the show, it's like, Nope, you can't watch 132 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,120 it without me. You gotta watch it with me. Anyways, 133 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,959 I just find it funny. But anyways, if you're looking 134 00:06:48,959 --> 00:06:52,160 for something to get into, maybe tryout Love Island again. 135 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,360 I wasn't sure in the beginning. It was kind of skeptical, 136 00:06:54,439 --> 00:06:57,319 but now I'm hooked and I've been loving it. Also, 137 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,000 this has been so random, guys, and I don't feel 138 00:07:00,439 --> 00:07:02,920 like I ever feel this waste this early on in 139 00:07:02,959 --> 00:07:04,560 the summer. And I don't know if it's because we've 140 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,279 had such hot weather lately, but I can't stop thinking 141 00:07:08,319 --> 00:07:12,879 about Fall. I can't stop thinking about pumpkins, the leaves changing, 142 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,600 thinking about like home decor shopping during the fall season. 143 00:07:17,079 --> 00:07:19,639 Like fall I think is honestly my favorite season. Like 144 00:07:19,639 --> 00:07:21,000 the more I think about it, I think I talk 145 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,480 about summer so much on here and like looking forward 146 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,000 to it. Obviously, like, I have shitty winters here, so 147 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,040 I'm always like looking forward to the warmer weather. And 148 00:07:29,079 --> 00:07:31,160 obviously I love summer with a tan. Okay, summer and 149 00:07:31,199 --> 00:07:34,160 fall are definitely my two favorite seasons. But there's something 150 00:07:34,199 --> 00:07:36,959 about fall that I think about that brings me so 151 00:07:37,079 --> 00:07:39,079 much comfort. I just I don't know. I think it's 152 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,199 the foods. I think it's the time of year. I 153 00:07:41,199 --> 00:07:45,120 feel like everything slows down right. Summer is so fast paced, 154 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,160 and I feel like there's always so much going on, 155 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,920 so with like weddings and things going on with your friends, 156 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,800 and obviously I'm moving this summer, so I feel like 157 00:07:51,839 --> 00:07:54,040 there's like a lot going on. And I think about 158 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,240 Fall and I'm like, oh, it feels like such a slow, 159 00:07:56,319 --> 00:07:59,879 comforting time. Going to the farmers' markets, going on those walks. 160 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,879 It's not as hot, just a little bit chilly. You know. 161 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,720 Some of those favorite things I love to watch, like 162 00:08:05,959 --> 00:08:09,879 you know, Gilmore Girls, Vampire Diaries, Twilight, like those all 163 00:08:09,959 --> 00:08:12,720 kind of have like the fall setting. I can't believe 164 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,279 I'm talking about this before July, like or in July, 165 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:16,920 as you guys are listening to this, which I find 166 00:08:17,079 --> 00:08:19,199 so funny because I feel like I'm not usually talking 167 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,319 about Fall step until August, but I do not know 168 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,079 why I'm so excited. I am so freaking excited for September. 169 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,240 September first is officially Fall in my mind, and yeah, 170 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,679 I'm so excited. So random, I know, and no one 171 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,639 come at me for talking about Fall here, but I 172 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,600 am actually really excited and I think it's gonna be 173 00:08:39,279 --> 00:08:41,759 a great Fall season. We have a fun episode topic 174 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,559 for today's episode. I really wanted to talk about tips 175 00:08:45,639 --> 00:08:49,679 on feeling hotter and just honestly becoming richer. I think 176 00:08:49,799 --> 00:08:52,919 that's two things that all girls, and honestly probably meant 177 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,600 as well, strive for. So I really wanted to talk 178 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,639 about tips on feeling hotter and getting richer, and not 179 00:08:58,759 --> 00:09:02,519 because either one to determines your worth, but because taking 180 00:09:02,519 --> 00:09:06,320 care of yourself and building financial security tends to make 181 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,360 every area of your life better. Okay, let's be honest, 182 00:09:09,399 --> 00:09:13,279 Like your confidence is better, you feel hotter, you feel richer, 183 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,679 Like of course, you're going to see your life thrive, 184 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,879 and you're going to feel like you're thriving in that 185 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,879 moment when all these good things are happening to you. 186 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,320 So we're going to kind of talk about some things 187 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,120 that I personally think are great tips to maybe help 188 00:09:27,159 --> 00:09:30,000 you out with either finding a new job or finding 189 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,919 a side hustle to you know, financially put you in 190 00:09:32,919 --> 00:09:36,639 a better situation, or things that might make your confidence 191 00:09:36,639 --> 00:09:40,120 feel higher and just yourself feel hotter in general, and 192 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,440 being hot isn't all about the physical. Of course, we 193 00:09:43,519 --> 00:09:46,720 all want to physically look our hottest, but it's also 194 00:09:46,879 --> 00:09:50,000 within right, it's also about the competence, the energy, the style, 195 00:09:50,159 --> 00:09:53,120 how you want to carry yourself. There's so much more 196 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,720 around being hotter than just our physical appearance. It's so 197 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,360 much deeper. So we're going to start off with ways 198 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,919 to get rich because there's a few things that you 199 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,000 can do, a few things that you could do yourself 200 00:10:05,039 --> 00:10:08,799 with your current situation, whether it's your current job or 201 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,000 your current income, or ways that we could maybe add 202 00:10:13,039 --> 00:10:16,480 on to what we're making now by doing things differently, 203 00:10:16,519 --> 00:10:20,840 by finding side hustles, by figuring out, you know, skills 204 00:10:20,879 --> 00:10:25,399 that involve a high income earning. So starting off with 205 00:10:25,759 --> 00:10:28,600 increasing your income instead of only trying to save money, 206 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,960 so you can increase your income by either changing your job. 207 00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:35,320 Maybe you're not in love with what you're doing right now, 208 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,519 and you've considered trying to find maybe a job that 209 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:43,440 has a higher income, higher salary. So there's nothing wrong 210 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,120 with keeping your current job, and you know, looking on 211 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,919 indeed or anything like that for current job listings, and 212 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,159 if there's something that catches your eye that is, you know, 213 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,440 a higher pay than what you're making now that you 214 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,840 think is very similar, or something that you have a 215 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,039 lot of passion towards, there's nothing wrong with continuing to 216 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,759 look for jobs. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. 217 00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:05,720 I feel like that's a very common thing that people do. 218 00:11:05,879 --> 00:11:08,279 Is the odd time they'll just check to see if 219 00:11:08,279 --> 00:11:10,559 there's something better, and if there isn't, not a big deal, 220 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,519 you keep doing what you're doing. So that definitely something 221 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,639 to always keep your eye on. If you're someone that 222 00:11:15,639 --> 00:11:17,840 doesn't love what they're doing in the current moment, or 223 00:11:17,919 --> 00:11:20,879 looking to again earn a little bit more income than 224 00:11:20,919 --> 00:11:24,000 you're currently doing now, there's literally nothing wrong with that. 225 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,279 Saving is also another important thing. I feel like my 226 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,879 parents taught me how to save and just be really 227 00:11:30,919 --> 00:11:33,559 smart with my money since the beginning. I remember when 228 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,519 I got my first job at Michael Core's and I 229 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,240 was a greeter and I made like very little money. 230 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,480 But my mom always told me, like, you don't need 231 00:11:42,519 --> 00:11:46,240 to have xyzmount in your checking's account all the freaking time. 232 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,559 She's like, you only need, you know, xyzmount for you know, 233 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,039 this to last you for the next two weeks, because 234 00:11:53,039 --> 00:11:55,320 I got paid every two weeks. So she's like, you know, 235 00:11:55,399 --> 00:11:59,039 pay your phone bill, pay your car bill, and have 236 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,159 a little bit of money for your groceries and you 237 00:12:01,159 --> 00:12:04,080 know the odd maybe clothing purchase or going out for 238 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,480 dinner and the rest. Put it in your savings account. 239 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,720 Like That's how I was raised, and to this day, 240 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:11,919 it's something that I stick to where I'm like, I 241 00:12:11,919 --> 00:12:13,559 don't need all this money in my checking's account. I 242 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,120 always put things in my savings. I invest. I do 243 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,039 everything that I can to not add the money in 244 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,039 my checking I just try and put it in other areas. 245 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,720 I obviously invest in like a lot of RSPs because 246 00:12:25,159 --> 00:12:28,279 I'm self employed, so that's a huge, huge thing for me, 247 00:12:28,759 --> 00:12:31,360 and you know, I can earn a percentage of putting 248 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,240 it in certain things that I put in for banking purposes. 249 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,559 So anyways, that's a deeper conversation, but I try my 250 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,720 best to be really really smart with my money. And 251 00:12:40,759 --> 00:12:43,960 I think that's something that girls should really learn, is 252 00:12:44,039 --> 00:12:46,960 how to be smart with your money, because that's what's 253 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,120 going to create more success for yourself if you're smart 254 00:12:49,159 --> 00:12:51,440 with your money, choose how you spend your money wisely. 255 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,759 You know. I see a lot of girls sometimes like 256 00:12:55,279 --> 00:12:58,320 buy the expensive car and like waste their money on that, 257 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,720 and then they're, you know, having a hard time still 258 00:13:00,759 --> 00:13:02,559 living the life that they want to live. Right Like 259 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,600 if they're the kind of girl that wants the luxury 260 00:13:04,639 --> 00:13:07,159 car but they still want to go traveling and going 261 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,720 out for dinners with your friends all the times and 262 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,120 all that, but you can't afford both, then it's a 263 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,919 waste of money. Like why are we doing this all 264 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,360 to have that BMW or that Range Rover or that 265 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,440 whatever the car that you wanted, Like you have to 266 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,720 make sure that financially, does it make sense? Is it 267 00:13:20,759 --> 00:13:24,360 a smart decision for me to you know, finance or 268 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,320 own a luxury vehicle and still be able to do 269 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,399 those fun things that I want to do, right Like, 270 00:13:29,799 --> 00:13:32,799 any time you make a big purchase, especially right now 271 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,399 with our house, Like before we bought our house, we knew, okay, 272 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,720 what is our ballpark in terms of budget of what 273 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,960 we're willing to spend, Because at the end of the day, 274 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,480 I don't want to be house poor. I don't want 275 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,840 to be car poor. Like, you have to put yourself 276 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,320 in smart financial decisions to not put yourself at risk 277 00:13:49,879 --> 00:13:52,159 with not being able to still continue living your life. 278 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,960 Like you want to be able to balance everything. You 279 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,519 want to still be able to travel, you want to 280 00:13:56,519 --> 00:13:59,240 still be able to have fun things happen with your friends. 281 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,200 You don't want to be that. And that's like, hey, yeah, 282 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,360 I can't afford it because I decided to spend all 283 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,440 my money on my car, or I decided to spend 284 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,000 all my money on this, Like, don't get a luxury car. 285 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,679 Get the car that you can afford. That way you 286 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,840 can still do the fun things with your friends. It's 287 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,559 all about balance. It's all about just being smart with 288 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,120 your money. And I think that's just so so important 289 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,759 to learn from the beginning, because that alone will allow 290 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,399 you to feel richer because you're being smart, You're not 291 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,559 being stupid. You're putting your money in the right spot 292 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,000 and not wasting it on something that you don't think 293 00:14:29,039 --> 00:14:32,039 you can afford. Right, So So just learning about the 294 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,200 proper financial situation that you're in and saving the right way, 295 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,039 I think is going to take you a really long way. 296 00:14:38,159 --> 00:14:40,879 Another idea to get richer is start a side hustle. 297 00:14:41,039 --> 00:14:43,559 So if there's a hobby that you love or a 298 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,120 skill that you've developed throughout the years of life that 299 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,279 you've always imagined starting a side business and just selling 300 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,080 things on the side. And it could be selling things 301 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,679 on the Facebook marketplace, it could be starting a poshmark 302 00:14:54,679 --> 00:14:57,519 account and selling clothing like it could literally be anything. 303 00:14:57,559 --> 00:15:00,759 One idea is starting a cake business. If you love 304 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,519 baking cakes and you're really good at it, well, there 305 00:15:03,519 --> 00:15:05,600 are so many people out there that go on Facebook 306 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,799 marketplace to find someone to design a birthday cake or 307 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,159 an anniversary cake, whatever the case may be, and people 308 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,480 will pay you to do that, right, So you can 309 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,519 totally create a side hustle by dedicating time in your 310 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,600 evenings or weekends to do this and that again is 311 00:15:22,639 --> 00:15:25,639 a great way to make side hustle money. With my situation, 312 00:15:26,039 --> 00:15:28,960 I really treated my social media as my side hustle, 313 00:15:29,039 --> 00:15:30,840 so I really did not think it was going to 314 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,639 be a full time thing. In the beginning, I thought 315 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,480 I love doing this. I love watching other people do this, 316 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,039 Like this would be so great if I could make 317 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,919 this my full time thing. But we'll just do this 318 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,159 for fun on the side and see where it takes me. Right. 319 00:15:43,279 --> 00:15:45,240 So I was working my full time job, and I 320 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,480 was finding every hour of my weekend and every hour 321 00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:52,000 of my evening spending all this time editing content, filming content, 322 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,000 and continuing so on doing that and being consistent with it. 323 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,360 I started to get small brand deals, and I started 324 00:15:57,399 --> 00:15:59,159 to get people reach out to me, and then eventually 325 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,000 it got to the point where it became so busy 326 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,720 where I had a management team reach out to me 327 00:16:02,759 --> 00:16:05,039 and wanting to sign me. And that's when I knew, okay, 328 00:16:05,759 --> 00:16:08,000 this could become a full time thing. Like this side 329 00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:11,000 hustle that I was doing for a few months became 330 00:16:11,159 --> 00:16:13,919 a lot bigger than I expected it to be, and 331 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,519 that's amazing, And like, who knows that could be the 332 00:16:16,559 --> 00:16:19,039 same for you. If you're a huge cake lover. Who 333 00:16:19,039 --> 00:16:21,120 knows you could sell a bunch of cakes on Facebook 334 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,120 marketplace and then suddenly you could start your own cake 335 00:16:23,159 --> 00:16:25,000 business and you're owning your own cake shop, Like you 336 00:16:25,039 --> 00:16:27,360 have no idea where life can take you. But I 337 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,679 do think turning your passions into business or turning you 338 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,279 know skills that you're really good at into income is 339 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,840 worth a shot. So don't be afraid to try something different, 340 00:16:36,919 --> 00:16:40,039 try something new, because it could really bring some good 341 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,679 luck your way. And you know, obviously, like getting more 342 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,799 money is great, and getting more money of doing something 343 00:16:46,799 --> 00:16:49,720 that you truly love and enjoy makes things even more 344 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,960 enjoyable and more exciting and allows more opportunities to come. 345 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,360 I also think it's great that there's so many podcasts 346 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,639 and books that you could read or listen to that 347 00:16:59,679 --> 00:17:03,320 would really really help you learn about money again, learn 348 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,240 about how you can make more money increase your income. 349 00:17:06,839 --> 00:17:10,680 I think it just allows you to realize what's most 350 00:17:10,759 --> 00:17:13,880 important for yourself. And I think it's a great way 351 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,400 to educate yourself too, So I think listening to podcasts 352 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,160 is great. I've listened to a few financial podcasts myself 353 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,200 that are more like in the business side of things. 354 00:17:22,279 --> 00:17:24,119 I can link some of the ones that I've listened to. 355 00:17:24,279 --> 00:17:28,519 But I do think it's really really good to educate yourself, 356 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,359 and honestly, just hear hearing people like that talk about 357 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,920 it is so inspiring and so motivational I find, so 358 00:17:36,519 --> 00:17:39,079 definitely do your own research, but I do think reading 359 00:17:39,079 --> 00:17:42,119 books around this and kind of going back to the saving, 360 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,720 but spending your money intentionally instead of emotionally. So just 361 00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:47,759 being smart with your money in general, I think is 362 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,680 the key thing to take out of this as well. 363 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,400 Because don't get me wrong, of course I want to 364 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,000 drop all my money on a Chanel handbag that literally 365 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,359 costs fifteen thousand dollars, But to me, that's not smart, 366 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,400 Like why would I waste fifteen thousand dollars on a 367 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,079 Chanelle handbag when I can put that money towards my 368 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,799 new house. So, like there's things that I get if 369 00:18:06,839 --> 00:18:08,920 people can do if they're in the financial situation to 370 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,440 do so, or the whole burken situation. I don't even 371 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,240 know how much a burkin is at Armes, but like, 372 00:18:13,599 --> 00:18:16,079 people will spend the money on handbags, and if you 373 00:18:16,079 --> 00:18:18,920 weren't in the financial situation to do so, I love 374 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:20,799 that for you. I think that's great. I think that's 375 00:18:20,799 --> 00:18:23,119 every girl's dream. Some people it's not their dreams. Some 376 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,599 people don't care about handbags, and that's fine, But you know, 377 00:18:25,599 --> 00:18:27,480 if you're the kind of girl that like wants that dream, 378 00:18:27,799 --> 00:18:29,640 you can do it. But if you want to be 379 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,039 smart with your money in your current situation in life, 380 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,799 if you think it's stupid for you to buy that 381 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,839 handbag right now, then don't do it. Like put your 382 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,440 money in your savings. And if you want to go 383 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,960 on a big European trip, let's say, then I would 384 00:18:45,039 --> 00:18:47,160 rather you paid that fifteen thousand dollars on a trip 385 00:18:47,759 --> 00:18:49,559 versus handbag. Like I mean, I'm not saying the trip's 386 00:18:49,559 --> 00:18:50,839 going to cost you fifteen thousand dollars, you know what 387 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,720 I mean though, But like it would probably be like, 388 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:58,200 you know, let's say five grand for like the flights, food, accommodations, 389 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,000 add all that up going to Europe verse fifteen thousand 390 00:19:01,039 --> 00:19:03,359 dollars that you would spend on a Burkein or Chanel big, 391 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,160 you know what I mean. So it's like it's probably 392 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,119 smarter to do that and spend your money on a handbag. 393 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,960 So obviously that's just a very broad example, but the 394 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,200 point is that, like you can be smarter with your 395 00:19:13,279 --> 00:19:15,920 money decisions. If you don't think it's worth it, don't 396 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,519 spend your money on it. Just put your money on 397 00:19:18,599 --> 00:19:20,599 things that you are intentional with and things that you 398 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,720 personally think are worth investing in. All right, now, let's 399 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,240 talk about ways to get hotter. So we're gonna kind 400 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,319 of mix us up with a bit of competence and 401 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,279 also just like physically feeling hotter, because I think a 402 00:19:32,279 --> 00:19:35,279 lot of people obviously want to physically feel their hot 403 00:19:35,319 --> 00:19:37,599 ast self, right, So one thing that I always strive 404 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,119 here on the podcast is really building a workout routine 405 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:44,519 for yourself. I personally think the combination of strength training 406 00:19:44,599 --> 00:19:49,400 and pilates is, in my opinion, the ideal world of 407 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,079 a girl that wants to feel her fittest self feel 408 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,519 tone also just like feel her hottest self. I saw 409 00:19:56,759 --> 00:19:59,240 an interview with Haley Beaver recently and she did say 410 00:19:59,279 --> 00:20:02,599 that pilates a little overhyped, but she still includes it 411 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,720 in her routine. So I think Haley is that kind 412 00:20:04,759 --> 00:20:06,920 of girl where she really does combine to her strength 413 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,160 training with her biloates, because I can tell based off 414 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,400 of her personal training videos that I've seen that she 415 00:20:12,599 --> 00:20:15,559 does incorporate strength training, and it goes to show that 416 00:20:15,599 --> 00:20:17,839 it's like if you want that lean muscle, if you 417 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,880 want that you know, toned look. I do think it's 418 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,119 a combination of multiple things. It's not just one, but 419 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:26,599 you can also be the kind of girl it doesn't 420 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,279 like either of those things and you're more of a 421 00:20:28,319 --> 00:20:31,160 cardio girl. That's amazing. If you love to do cardio, 422 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,720 that's great. Like everyone has their own thing that works 423 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,720 for their body. There's not like a specific thing that 424 00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:39,240 works for everyone. I just think it, in my opinion, 425 00:20:39,279 --> 00:20:41,279 if you want like the best of both worlds to 426 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,240 feel and look muscular tone, get that like physique that 427 00:20:45,279 --> 00:20:48,720 you've wanted. I do think strength training is so important. 428 00:20:48,759 --> 00:20:51,079 It's something that I've definitely lacked these past few years. 429 00:20:51,079 --> 00:20:53,720 And I can honestly tell you know, I put so 430 00:20:53,839 --> 00:20:56,119 much love into pilates for a little too long, which 431 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,119 I don't regret, but now I've kind of cut it 432 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,200 back a bit and really focused on both because I 433 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,039 do think strength training is so important, especially like for 434 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,599 my whole back injury. It's literally because I wasn't strength training, 435 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,039 like that's one reason, and I'm like, I need to 436 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:14,039 just get back into lifting weights, and honestly, I just 437 00:21:14,039 --> 00:21:16,240 want to have the strongest back ever. That's my goal. 438 00:21:16,279 --> 00:21:18,680 I want to have like a six pack off my back. 439 00:21:18,799 --> 00:21:21,039 That is something that I've always wanted, So I'm like, 440 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,720 we're really making this a priority this year and getting 441 00:21:24,759 --> 00:21:28,119 back into strength training. Another thing is eating protein, eating 442 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,839 enough food. I think there's so many girls that think 443 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,559 eating less is what's going to give you that lean 444 00:21:33,759 --> 00:21:36,680 and like perfect physique. Look take it from a girl 445 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:39,640 here who literally went through that herself. I used to 446 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,640 skip meals all the time as a kid. I had 447 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,720 a really bad food journey, which I've shared from the 448 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,839 podcast in a different episode. But I've had my fair 449 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,000 share of like cutting out carbs, eating less food, not 450 00:21:50,039 --> 00:21:54,240 really eating enough protein, and my results were not really good. 451 00:21:54,279 --> 00:21:57,559 It was actually really unhealthy. So hot girls need to 452 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,920 know that it's hot to eat food. Food. Okay, that's 453 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,960 what's gonna give you that muscle, that's what's gonna make 454 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,039 you look lean, that's what's gonna make you look hot. 455 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,480 Eat the carbs, eat the protein. It's so so important 456 00:22:09,519 --> 00:22:12,160 to see food as fuel and it just builds so 457 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,400 much muscle and makes you feel so much better. So 458 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,000 we're all about eating protein and eating enough food here 459 00:22:18,039 --> 00:22:20,519 and eating things that you enjoy and love and all 460 00:22:20,559 --> 00:22:23,359 about balance, because I think that's so crucial into also 461 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,279 feeling good. With yourself, because if you're avoiding certain foods 462 00:22:27,319 --> 00:22:29,640 and like not eating out with your friends, like again, 463 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,000 you're missing out on opportunities, fun memories, fun moments, all 464 00:22:33,039 --> 00:22:36,240 because you decided you didn't want to eat out. Like, no, 465 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,160 we're not about that here. It's all about balance, and 466 00:22:39,279 --> 00:22:42,400 you're still gonna see results from eating that cheeseburger or 467 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,880 eating that pizza the odd time. It's not gonna ruin 468 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,440 your progress. So just make sure you keep that in 469 00:22:47,519 --> 00:22:50,039 your mind, because you got to live life too. This 470 00:22:50,079 --> 00:22:52,200 one is so crucial, and I didn't really realize how 471 00:22:52,279 --> 00:22:55,160 important it was until I was currently living with it. 472 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,599 But taking care of your hair and getting it done 473 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,519 ever so often. I have not gotten a hair cut, guys, 474 00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:03,519 in six months. Six months, Okay, I have not gone 475 00:23:03,519 --> 00:23:06,000 to my hair salon that long because I purposely waited 476 00:23:06,039 --> 00:23:09,279 to book my hair appointment before my portual trip. Obviously, 477 00:23:09,319 --> 00:23:11,880 I'm not going to Portugal now with my dad going 478 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,319 through surgery, so my hairdresser books really far in advance, 479 00:23:15,319 --> 00:23:17,920 so unfortunately there's nothing sooner. But I think it's in 480 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,079 two weeks, which is not terrible, but I'm like, I 481 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,839 cannot wait to get my hair cut done because I 482 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,359 think my hair just like needs a refresh, and I 483 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,319 think that's something that we don't think about too much. 484 00:23:28,319 --> 00:23:31,039 I think we overlook that and you don't realize how 485 00:23:31,079 --> 00:23:33,759 important your hair is until you're currently in this situation 486 00:23:33,799 --> 00:23:35,559 where you're like, oh my god, my hair looks rady. 487 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,279 Oh my god, my hair needs to be done. It 488 00:23:37,319 --> 00:23:39,559 needs a hair mask, it needs some hydration, it needs 489 00:23:40,079 --> 00:23:44,160 anything besides what it's going through now. So I think, really, 490 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:48,160 you know, going to those appointments every three months, I 491 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,519 think is so crucial because it really does make a 492 00:23:50,599 --> 00:23:54,839 huge difference in how you feel and honestly your appearance. 493 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,039 Like I think for me, I'm like in desperate need 494 00:23:57,039 --> 00:23:58,680 of getting my hair done, and I just know the 495 00:23:58,759 --> 00:24:01,319 day I have my appointment and I get that chop 496 00:24:01,799 --> 00:24:03,960 and I get that gloss, I'm going to be the 497 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,319 happiest girl ever and I'm going to feel ten times 498 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,599 o her. This one here is actually something that I 499 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,839 feel like not enough people talk about, and it really 500 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,799 does make a huge difference on how you feel and 501 00:24:13,839 --> 00:24:18,119 how you look. But improving your posture like standing up straighter, 502 00:24:18,559 --> 00:24:21,359 you know, not having your shoulders hunched over. I grew 503 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,759 up as the tallest girl in my class, the tallest 504 00:24:24,759 --> 00:24:28,480 girl out of my friends from like grade four to 505 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,039 like high school, and I just always remember my mom 506 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,279 was like, killie, you're hunching, killing you're hunting. Like I'd 507 00:24:33,279 --> 00:24:36,079 always curl my shoulders down because I felt like my 508 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,680 friends were so short that I kind of like had 509 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,960 to like hunch a bit to like, I don't know 510 00:24:40,079 --> 00:24:42,640 fit in. I have no idea, to be honest. Now, 511 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,880 I've like worked so hard at keeping my postures so well, 512 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,839 and I feel like I'm constantly like keeping my shoulders back. 513 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,000 I'm like, I can catch myself when I'm hunting now, 514 00:24:52,039 --> 00:24:54,000 and I'm like, oh, no, posture, got to keep that 515 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,920 in check. But I feel like when you see a 516 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,039 beautiful girl and you see her standing up straight, and 517 00:24:59,079 --> 00:25:01,359 like you can just tell her posture and body language 518 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,039 is like so beautiful. It makes a huge difference. I 519 00:25:05,039 --> 00:25:06,400 don't know, I feel like that's something a lot of 520 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,480 people don't talk about, but it really does make you 521 00:25:09,519 --> 00:25:12,960 feel more confident and just hotter in general when you 522 00:25:13,079 --> 00:25:17,440 have good posture. Another thing is walking every single day. 523 00:25:17,599 --> 00:25:20,319 I feel good just getting a walk in every single morning, 524 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,559 knowing that I've gotten my steps in I've actually decided 525 00:25:23,559 --> 00:25:26,000 to create a challenge for myself for July. If anybody 526 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,000 wants to join, they can join. But I am starting 527 00:25:29,039 --> 00:25:31,039 a challenge where I'm going to start doing ten k 528 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,759 steps before ten am, which sounds crazy, but it is 529 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,039 very attainable, okay, And I'm going to share it with 530 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,240 you guys in some content that I'll film throughout the 531 00:25:39,279 --> 00:25:42,599 month of July. But I love walking so much. I 532 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,039 think it's so underrated. I think you don't need to, 533 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:50,039 you know, kill yourself in cardioclasses. You could literally just 534 00:25:50,079 --> 00:25:52,599 walk ten kse steps to day and get such great results. 535 00:25:53,039 --> 00:25:56,359 And I think walking is so underrated, even though yeah 536 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,559 it's not, it's literally the best thing ever. I feel 537 00:25:58,599 --> 00:26:01,359 like it's something that likes would talk about all the time, 538 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,079 just saying you just need to walk, you just need 539 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,480 to walk, Like, yeah, I feel like walking is so 540 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,000 so important. My nan Na, she's eighty five years old 541 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,400 and she does not own a car. She walks to 542 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,799 the bus stop every single day, and she'll walk to 543 00:26:14,839 --> 00:26:17,079 the grocery store. She'll do all of her walking, and 544 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:22,000 I swear she is so freaking healthy, and I know 545 00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:24,200 it's because of all her walking like she's never owned 546 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,519 a car in her life. She literally was born in Italy, 547 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:28,759 was there for twenty five years of her life, moved 548 00:26:28,759 --> 00:26:31,480 to Canada and just never owned a car. She's like, Nope, 549 00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:34,000 I don't need it. I can walk around and like 550 00:26:34,039 --> 00:26:37,319 to this day, I'm like, I swear it's because she 551 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,079 walks everywhere, Like I don't know, I just I think 552 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,720 it's a thing. I think walking is so important at 553 00:26:42,759 --> 00:26:46,319 any age, and I'm gonna be walking ten k steps 554 00:26:46,319 --> 00:26:47,920 every single day for the rest of my life. That's 555 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,200 my goal in life. Another thing to feel hotter is 556 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,279 figuring out your style. I think fashion is such a 557 00:26:53,319 --> 00:26:56,680 crucial part of your identity. I think so many people 558 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,319 kind of lose the plot of like how they want 559 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,799 to dress them So, of course we see so many 560 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,440 different types of fashion on TikTok and social media, and 561 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,000 I think a lot of people just get sucked into 562 00:27:08,039 --> 00:27:10,480 trends and are just buying things that they're seeing other 563 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,880 people wear, but they're not really like figuring out like 564 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,359 what they feel is best for themselves and what they 565 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,599 feel the most competent in. And I think that's a 566 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,039 huge thing when it comes to competence it's like being 567 00:27:20,039 --> 00:27:22,880 able to wear something that you feel extremely comfortable in 568 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,440 and you feel extremely competent in. I feel like I 569 00:27:25,559 --> 00:27:27,079 used to be that kind of person where I would 570 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,880 just fall for trends, buy whatever my favorite influencer or 571 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,400 girl that I admire, like celebrities and such, and you know, 572 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,559 wear it in myself, but I wouldn't feel confident in it. 573 00:27:37,559 --> 00:27:38,920 I would just wear it because I thought it was 574 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,359 cool and what other people were, you know, selling me 575 00:27:41,519 --> 00:27:43,880 and what other people were selling me on. But honestly, 576 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,839 I feel like finding what makes you happy and finding 577 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,799 things that make you feel confident is your goal in life. 578 00:27:49,799 --> 00:27:52,440 For fashion, it's not about following other people. It's about 579 00:27:52,559 --> 00:27:54,880 doing what you think is best for yourself. I feel 580 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,680 like I've always had a love for fashion, and I 581 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,119 always wanted things that were like to the ordinary. I 582 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,000 remember when like ripped jeans became such a big thing 583 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,400 back in high school, and I never went to Abercombi 584 00:28:07,519 --> 00:28:09,880 or Hollister to go buy ripped jeans. I just took 585 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,359 a pair of jeens that I owned and I made 586 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,759 my mom rip them for me. But like, I always 587 00:28:13,799 --> 00:28:15,640 found ways to kind of like do things in my 588 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,319 own way. If that makes sense. So that's why I 589 00:28:18,319 --> 00:28:21,839 feel like fashion is so important for how you see 590 00:28:21,839 --> 00:28:25,599 yourself and how your confidence is. And yeah, something that 591 00:28:25,599 --> 00:28:29,200 I think is so important to really focus on if 592 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,720 you're really wanting to feel your hottest self and just 593 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,599 like feel confident as well. Now, let's talk about confidence 594 00:28:34,599 --> 00:28:37,480 for a bit, because it's kind of like your mental 595 00:28:37,519 --> 00:28:39,640 health as well, right, Like, we want to talk about 596 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,920 mental health here because taking care of your emotion and 597 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:48,160 physical being is important, right, So obviously getting enough sleep 598 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,880 and exercising is what's going to help your mental health. 599 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:55,039 Setting healthy boundaries with people who you know disrespect you. Like, 600 00:28:55,599 --> 00:28:59,160 if there's people that are sucking negative energy out of you, 601 00:28:59,279 --> 00:29:01,160 why are we with these people? We should be surrounding 602 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,839 yourself with positive people who bring a positive aspect to 603 00:29:03,839 --> 00:29:06,240 your life. We don't want to be in surround ourselves 604 00:29:06,279 --> 00:29:09,240 with people that disrespect you. Managing your stress by not 605 00:29:09,279 --> 00:29:11,559 ignoring it. What are we doing to manage this stress? 606 00:29:11,599 --> 00:29:14,759 Are we journaling? Are we meditating? Are we taking time 607 00:29:14,799 --> 00:29:17,119 out over a day to do an hour walk besides, 608 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,319 you know, draining ourselves in something that's creating this stress 609 00:29:20,319 --> 00:29:23,680 on ourselves. Are we seeking support? Are we talking to 610 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:25,759 our friends, Are we talking to a family member, are 611 00:29:25,759 --> 00:29:29,880 we you know, maybe hiring a therapist, Like really making 612 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,920 those things up priorities also going to make you feel 613 00:29:33,119 --> 00:29:37,480 more confident, more hot because you're actually focusing within yourself 614 00:29:37,559 --> 00:29:39,880 and not just your physical being. I just want people 615 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,440 to know that all these things that I've talked about 616 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,440 in today's episode is not about striving to be perfect. 617 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,759 It's striving to just be better.
