WTFU S2:E1 Who Would You Be Today if You Were Living Your Dream Life?

Welcome to Season 2 of WTFU (Wake the Fuck Up)!

The plan was to talk about one question: Who would you be today if you were already living your dream life?

Did we stay on topic?

Not exactly.

What followed was an honest conversation about life, mindset, growth, manifestation, possibility, and the countless ways we get in our own way—and occasionally get out of it. Along the way, we stumbled across a few insights, shared some stories, and hopefully left a trail of breadcrumbs for anyone trying to create something more meaningful in their own life.

No script. No filters. No editing. 

Just a conversation.

We hope you find a nugget or two that speaks to you.

Welcome back to WTFU.

SPEAKER_00 0:00

Hello, everybody, and welcome to the podcast, season two of Wake the Fuck Up, about four years later. But this is definitely a full circle moment for us because, as it turns out, season two is gonna have a co-host. So Stacy Casey will be here with me ongoing for this season, and as it turns out, she was my very first guest on season one. So, Stacy, I am super stoked to have you here. I'm really, really looking forward to having some awesome, expansive, fun conversations with you and hoping to, you know, put a little fun in people's day and share some insights from our own experiences and just help people wake the fuck up. So I'm real. Welcome, welcome, welcome. I'm super, super happy.

SPEAKER_01 1:07

I'm so excited that you reached out and you really wanted to put this together and yeah, look at where we have come four years later, here we are, and I'm excited to be on this podcast with you. Wake the fuck up. Everybody needs to be waking the fuck up right now because there's so much going on in the world, spiritually speaking, collectively speaking, and in our own energies as well. So if you have stumbled upon our podcast, welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome. We're glad that you're here listening to us chat about you know the different very um topics that come up.

SPEAKER_00 1:54

Yeah, absolutely. Grateful for all of you that are tuning in. So just uh as a refresher, a little bit about me, I am I'm an intuitive, I've a lifelong intuitive, but I uh psychic medium. I've been doing that professionally for what 11 years now doing private readings for people and and stuff like that. And uh I'm a mom. I have just a single, you know, single mom, have a 20-year-old son who is awesome and artistic and just fun and well, that's me.

SPEAKER_01 2:39

Hi, it's Stacy here. Um, I'm a mom, a wife. I have a 12-year-old son, and I have two doggies, butters and Oreo. I am a licensed massage therapist for about, gosh, it feels like forever now. Uh 20, I think it's 23 years. Oh, geez, I don't know. I can't do math right now, but I think it's like 20 some odd years. Um, I am also an intuitive, uh, lifelong intuitive, and um doing private readings as well and enjoying that journey of how that came about. And also I recently started doing uh quantum healing and hypnosis work by Dolores Cannon, and that has been amazing and also a Reiki master, and you know lots of cool things going on, and I thought, you know what, this would be the perfect time to do a podcast. Yep. So what's the topic we're what are we gonna be talking about today?

SPEAKER_00 4:01

Well, so in the in the theme of waking the fuck up, I I think that the the biggest thing for me when I first started this was I wanted people to remember who the hell they actually are and the power that is inherent in that because we are we come from and we are that divine source energy. We are that energy of love, the vibration of love, and we have the same manifesting powers as that source energy. You can call it God, the universe, Allah, Buddha, Yahweh, whatever you want to, whatever. But um, so I was thinking, like, you know, we're all trying to manifest, well, I guess not consciously, but we all are manifesting the lives that we live every single day, whether we know it or not. Some of us actually are conscious of it, and we pay attention to our thoughts and our things that whatever comes out of our mouth, you know, we're a little bit more aware of that, and we try to ensure that we're speaking into reality what we actually want to see in our lives. And so I was thinking, like, you know, who would you be if you were living the life of your dreams already? What would that actually look like for you?

SPEAKER_01 5:33

I would love that. Um to actually be the person that I've always inspired to be. And the crazy part is, you know, I I see glitches of myself in a parallel universe, or it's crazy how it happens, but I'll look down and I'm like, oh wow, I can see a skinnier version of myself, or I can feel uh the connecting dots get a little bit closer. So I think this is absolutely amazing to like put this out there, uh, drawing the energy closer to us as well.

SPEAKER_00 6:19

Yeah, absolutely. I I've had a little bit of that too, and it's kind of funny because I feel like lately it has gone from I don't know, to put it in a simple, the simplest kind of way, it has gone from basically words on a paper to actual visions in my mind. You know what I mean? It's like that part of it is evolving, and that's it's not anything I'm specifically doing. I just feel like it's it has evolved on its own because I'm getting actual visions now. And when I woke up yesterday or the day before, I saw that I had a whole line of they were veterinary clinics, but they were providing vet care at cost.

SPEAKER_01 7:21

Meaning like that would be yes, uh you know, like it was essentially a nonprofit, I guess, and I'm obviously the if if a pet was ever in need, or that was like the biggest thing. Um just uh really quick, I picked some flowers yesterday around the yard. Um, and we have um a really, really old rose bush, and we also have peonies. Well, I cut them, put them in a vase, put them um on the lower mantle of the fireplace. Well, butters or one boy dog got curious, pulled down a peony and uh shredded it up and started to eat it. Well, I had no idea that that was toxic for dogs. So can you imagine how much that that bill would be if, you know, thank goodness, thank goodness he is okay and nothing affected him. But I mean, at a time where you're like, oh shit, you know, I have to pay $500 to get his stomach pumped and make sure he has an IV and all that stuff to actually go somewhere and not have that daunting overhead feeling of how the hell am I gonna pay for this?

SPEAKER_00 8:51

Right. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 8:53

And and it's funny it's care that they need.

SPEAKER_00 8:58

Right, and not only that, but medications, you know, they the the markup on all of that stuff is just outrageous, and I understand that people need to make a living and stuff, but you know, I mean, it's it's no different than our own medications for humans. The markup is fucking unbelievable. And so I I just think it's interesting how how that kind of manifested that in my mind I'm seeing this this vision of all these veterinary clinics. And you know, I'm gonna tell you right now, if if that's something that I can manifest into this reality, I absolutely am going to do that. And so seeing it in our mind's eye as already done and feeling the feelings of having that available to everybody, you know, obviously I don't I don't think that I could manage the entire planet, you know, but because there are animals that need that care around the world, but you know, hell, if I could if I could have 10 or 15 of those across the country here in the US, that would be amazing.

SPEAKER_01 10:16

That would be amazing. And just putting out, I mean, not only having the the visualization come through and seeing it in your third eye, and actually having the feelings come along with it, you're also embodying this experience. Um manifesting, I swear to goodness, it has changed in the last three years. I don't know if you experienced this, but it has magnified so intensely that you speak it into existence, and I swear to goodness, um a week to two weeks to three weeks from now, or the very next day, it's already formulated, it's already coming through, and you're just like, holy moly, I can't believe this is happening already.

SPEAKER_00 11:13

Yes, yes, they have definitely accelerated in how quickly they show up in the physical. And but but that's you, that's your point of focus, you know. If you're getting out of your own way and not sitting there and doubting and and also focusing too much on how you're gonna make it happen, but just putting it out there, like it's like setting the GPS on your in your car, you know. You set the destination, but you don't worry about the the fucking roads to take. You let the system figure that out. It's the same thing.

SPEAKER_01 11:54

I love how it just happens. And like you said, don't worry about like how it's gonna come together, where the money's gonna come from, or how it's going to, you know, be created. Just follow the energy, just follow the intention and just let it be. And as long as you keep your heart open and just put yourself out there more and more, it's just amazing what opportunities, you know, quote unquote, fall in your lap.

SPEAKER_00 12:32

Right. Right. And, you know, like what I meant by get not getting in your own way was to try to force something, you know. You don't want to do this square peg round hole bullshit where you're trying to push it and and make something happen. It's about backing off and allowing it, but also when you get an intuitive hit to go somewhere or to do something, to turn left instead of right, follow it. And when you follow that, I mean that's that is your higher self. That's your your inner compass guiding you to the places and people and events that are actually going to assist you in the manifestation of whatever the hell it is you want.

SPEAKER_01 13:24

Be in action. I tell that to my clients all the time. You can speak into an existence, but you also have to follow the energy and be in action because that is the second step that I think a lot of people fall short on.

SPEAKER_00 13:42

Yeah, if you don't take this if you don't take action and take the steps necessary, but uh but again, do it in a in a way that you're guided to do. Like, like again, don't force it, don't try to right, you know, I don't know, manipulate the energy, work with it instead. And excuse me, just whatever you're intuitively drawn to do, do that.

SPEAKER_01 14:14

So I totally agree with you.

SPEAKER_00 14:17

So the question, the the thing that I was thinking about was who would you actually be if your whole vision had already come into manifested reality? Like what what would your life look like? What would you actually be doing?

SPEAKER_01 14:35

Oh my gosh, I would have no qualms about charging what I'm worth and not, you know, putting that worry out to the universe. I would be doing quantum healing hypnosis techniques, and I would be doing more soul work. I would really probably be more hyper focused on helping people expand and remembering who they are and who they were meant to be. If I could just skip over, you know, uh the developmental stage and skip over um trying to figure out how to get the clients and do all that because we're all human, right? Um that would be amazing. And I would totally encompass her. And I would be able to travel. Travel is the one thing that I miss. I miss experiencing cultures, I miss picking up and getting on an airplane, I miss um being able to experience other way of life. I would definitely if money was no object, I definitely would travel to different parts of the country or different parts of the world.

unknown 16:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 16:17

And try to help people, you know. I think that's community, community, community.

SPEAKER_00 16:23

Oh, without a doubt. And I I do feel like the energy is shaping up for us to finally connect with our soul tribes because there have been a lot of misses, you know. Yeah, I mean, very, very few people that I had in my life in the past two decades are still in my life. And I'm okay with that, but I at the same time would absolutely love to connect with my people, you know.

SPEAKER_01 17:01

Right. I would love to connect with people more on my wavelength, like how we are together, yeah, and let some of those friendships go um that are no longer aligned with me anymore.

SPEAKER_00 17:20

Sure. And and I think that that's part of it too, uh, as far as who you would be. Like, I know who who I would be, and I'm already there, I feel like I'm you know, I've been there were a couple of them, a couple of those friendships that dissolved with absolutely no reason, no, there was no conversation, there was no nothing. They just disappeared out of my life, and you know, I was taken aback by it, but at the same time, I'm okay. Um I understand that everything happens for a reason, and I'm just I'm I'm good with it because I'm always good on my own anyway, you know. I but yeah, I I feel like um getting to a point of knowing what you actually deserve in this life is paramount because if we don't feel that we deserve the good stuff, then we unintentionally push it away. You know? So having self-love, knowing that you're worthy and deserving of whatever it is that you want to manifest, feeling confident in yourself, that's a big thing.

SPEAKER_01 18:45

Having confidence about what you want to do or what you want to push out into the world and attracting what comes next for you. Don't self-doubt. I think that would be the biggest thing is is we get in our head, we let ego grab a hold of that and say, Oh, this is not gonna be it for you. It's not your tie. Yes, that's bullshit right there.

SPEAKER_00 19:11

Oh, it absolutely is bullshit. But yeah, I mean, I I do feel like the in and I'm talking energetic when I say energetically, I'm actually talking about um planetary, I'm talking about the astrology. This astrology that we're currently living in, there's shit going on, planetary alignments and stuff like that that haven't happened in centuries. I mean, I think even some of it millennia. And it's um it's crazy, but you know, here we are in the age of Aquarius, and only love truth comes forward. Yeah. I'm yeah, I've been trying to delve into that a little bit too, and it I noticed that other readers um on YouTube and whatnot, they've been integrating more and more about the astrology and how certain alignments are really beneficial and how you should take advantage of that. Like for me, I'm a I'm a dual Aquarius, I'm a double Aquarius. I have my sun and moon are both Aquarius, my rising sign is Gemini, which is also an air sign, like Aquarius.

SPEAKER_01 20:33

Um and so we've got just just so much going on astrologically that the image would pay attention to that more, or I wish I felt called to do more of that, but I just don't. I even now I have to look back at my chart, I have to see like, all right, we're what's in what, what's in my moon sign, you know, I have to look it up, I'm chat GPT in it, because I'm like, what does this actually mean?

SPEAKER_00 21:08

I know I don't know any of it either. I mean, I know, you know, like I said, I've got I uh my mid-heaven, whatever the hell that is, is also an Aquarius, so I've got this really heavy aqua placement, but yeah, I don't know, I don't know the specifics of it either. Um, and while I do have an interest in it, well, you know, I'm I'm currently wrapping up an accounting degree and you know, plus I work full-time and just got a lot of stuff going on, girlfriend. Yes, I do, and so I I just haven't had the the bandwidth to take on another educational project. So like I want to learn traditional tarot just because I think it would be fun, and and I'd really like to delve into the astrology as well. But you know, so if I I guess if I were um looking At who I would be if I had already manifested like all of it myself, I would definitely still be doing my readings because I absolutely love that. I love connecting to that energy and being able to help people through the readings, even if it's just to give them confirmation of what they already know. Sometimes that is all they need, you know? So that is for sure.

SPEAKER_01 22:29

Yes. And it doesn't matter how it comes through, just having that connection, and it may not be a traditional reading, but how the energy is connecting with the frequency.

SPEAKER_00 22:48

Right. Right. And so I would I would definitely still be doing my readings, and I would have complete and total freedom, meaning I would have time freedom, I have financial freedom, and I would have the ability to spend my days however the hell I want, which means for me I could potentially be making some jewelry, or I could be doing something with resin because one of the things that I'm wanting to do is start um making memorial pieces using cremates. Yeah, taking, you know, for people and pets, take take a little bit of their ashes, or I guess nowadays they're actually giving you fur off of like your cat or whatever, so you can so taking you know taking some of those things and in incorporating them into a resin piece. So I could be doing that, or I could be doing something with polymer clay, or you know, any of the mediums that I use to create stuff and just uh be doing that and hanging out with my kid and my three cats and you know, whatever. Yes, and traveling as well, because that's definitely I honestly I don't care, I don't need to be traveling like all the time. I really only have a handful of places that I absolutely want to go. Like Scotland, Scotland is my number one. I have been drawn to Scotland my whole life. I don't know why. I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 24:39

I can listen to the Scots and the Irish all day long.

SPEAKER_00 24:42

Oh my god, yes, me too.

SPEAKER_01 24:44

I have accent, I don't know what the hell you're saying, but oh my god, I absolutely love it.

SPEAKER_00 24:50

Yeah, for sure. So, but Scotland and uh Hawaii. I've never been to Hawaii, and and I think um Australia would be cool to go to. I I think Greece would be amazing. Um, but honestly, I that's kind of it for me. Like if but but I'd like to do the you know at least one significant trip every year, you know, like I'm talking like a month, you know? So you actually have enough time to really get a feel for the place that you're visiting, the culture and the food and the just all of it. Experience the entirety of it as much as you can in a month, but the temples, the museums, oh my god, food.

SPEAKER_01 25:41

Oh my gosh, yeah. Yeah the culture, the history.

SPEAKER_00 25:45

Yes, especially the history. Oh my god, when you're sp especially when you're talking about Scotland, you know. Holy shit, there's so much there that I just I that would be that would be my first thing. So Scotland and you know, and I want to connect with my person, I want to be with my soulmate, and I just turned 60 in February, and um, you know, this this last phase of my life I'm done with the struggle and difficulty and bullshit, and I would love for the rest of my life to literally be the best of my life, and and I can feel it, I can absolutely tell that that is exactly what's going on, that I am manifesting that, and it's shaping up every day. I see that I'm moving closer and closer to exactly that, making those connections with people, and I mean, no, I haven't met my person yet, but I can feel them like he's like right there, I can feel it, and I'm just I mean, I know, and I'm stoked, I'm excited for what is manifesting for me, and and I know too that co-creating with the universe, and I do mean whatever that looks like for you, whether it's prayer, meditation, visualization, whatever it is, just having a vision of the direction you want to go in and putting it out there to the universe, and then being open to that guidance so that you can take that inspired action towards the achievement of that, the manifestation of that thing, whatever that is, that you're asking for. And I can feel it, it's coming, it's like it's like right here. I can feel it.

SPEAKER_01 27:47

I love this.

SPEAKER_00 27:48

Yeah, me too. Me too. And I just want people to understand that they have the exact same creative power as God, the universe, whatever your belief system supports calling that energy. You have the same exact ability to create that. And you know, I've had people come and kind of call me out on it. One of them was my sister. Well, if that's the case, how come you're not living that life already? Because I'm human and I have my own shit that I have to deal with and clear, you know, limiting beliefs and blocks and shit. Just because I know intellectually how to do it doesn't mean that I'm not a fucking human who still has to go through the process.

SPEAKER_01 28:47

For sure, because I mean, we came here for the experience for the ride and all the lessons and you know, meeting up with other people to help them grow and expand.

SPEAKER_00 29:01

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 29:03

It is hard because we can see that future self, but we have to go through what I like to call the lily pad jumping.

SPEAKER_00 29:13

Yeah. Well, and honestly, that's a that is a really good analogy because you know, sometimes you can have a really stable footing, but when you're talking about standing on a fucking lily pad that is floating on the water, you know, your your weight can absolutely push it down. So if you're if you're sure footed and you can hop, you know, hop across quickly and make it to the other side, you're golden. But you know, sometimes you can slip. And that's it's just being human.

SPEAKER_01 29:53

Just being human and you know, you have family, you got friends, uh, you're you got everyday life that is kind of dragging you down, or you're trying to work through some of the traumas and the pain that we carry with us.

SPEAKER_00 30:11

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 30:12

And just trying to get to the other side of it.

SPEAKER_00 30:15

Right.

SPEAKER_01 30:16

Well, but we get so wrapped up in this vision of who we are, and that narrative and that programming just goes over and over and over. Trying to get out of that to acquire the new mindset is really a challenge all of itself. But I mean, if we're talking about who we want to be in the future and who we want to, if this is the person we're manifesting, oh my gosh, it would just be amazing to like again already have that all worked out, already have it all figured out, not going through the stress of um fighting with family relationships or friendships, we would have all had that, you know, down path.

SPEAKER_00 31:16

Yeah, absolutely, and and I think too that that right there is where faith comes into it. And I'm not talking about religious faith, I'm talking about a belief in the fact that you are supported, you're supported by the energy of the divine, whatever that is for you. Again, you know, that I not only that, we've got our ancestors and stuff, and as a medium, I can I can attest to that that I have spoken to plenty of dead people, and you know, from what I understand about all of it, it's we're very supported, very supported. We just have to believe that, believe that the life that we envision for ourselves is in fact reachable and trust the fucking process, stop getting in your own way and fighting against yourself. And you know, just I don't know, I don't know how to explain it, but because it is a process, how to get to a place of peace and knowingness and and having that faith.

SPEAKER_01 32:25

We all keep inner wisdom, connecting your inner wisdom and your inner knowing, and gosh, if we did that more and more every day, just imagine what you can accomplish.

SPEAKER_00 32:42

Right, right. And so when I first started this work, now I've been doing this for 20 years, honestly. This I've I know people who have been on this path way longer than me, but for me it's been since 2006, and there was I'm sure you've heard of the mirror mirror work. Um, there was something Louise Hay was a huge proponent of doing that mirror work. So you basically set a timer on your phone, you stand in front of the mirror for five minutes, and you look yourself in the eye and you say loving, kind things to yourself.

SPEAKER_01 33:20

And it's pretty powerful. It can get a little uncomfortable, especially if you're starting out at first. You feel like an idiot. We've all been there. But every time you pass that mirror and you speak words of love and warmth, and I mean, I recently did this. Um I wanna say about five months ago. And what would you tell your future self? And where where what kind of advice would you put towards her, towards him, as you're reflecting back to yourself? And I gotta tell you, like, I it felt like a boomerang of fact.

SPEAKER_00 34:11

Wow.

SPEAKER_01 34:11

It was like, holy moly, I should do this more often. You know, you get in your punk and you get in your everyday, your pickup line, you're trying to feed kids, you're trying to rush to appointments, and we forget about the simplest things: looking yourself in the mirror and projecting love, light, and positivity onto that future self. Wow. And I feel like the more that we do this and little practices here and there, the energy just cultivates even more.

SPEAKER_00 34:58

Oh, absolutely it does. But I you know, my own experience with the mirror thing was when I first started, like I said, it was 20 years ago, but when I first started this, I couldn't even look at myself in the mirror because I hadn't for a long time. I mean, other than to look in a magnifying mirror or you know, just the small uh mirror on my desk to put my mascara on, I really hadn't looked in the mirror. And when when I first started, I couldn't do it. I literally couldn't do it, and when I finally did actually look at myself, that I couldn't even, there was no speaking involved. I couldn't even look in my own eyes. But when I finally did, I lost my shit. I started sobbing because I hadn't even realized the depth of hatred that I had for myself.

SPEAKER_01 36:01

And well, yeah, because we're pointing out all the things that we don't like about ourselves. Oh, look at the chin. Oh, look at the saggy skin, especially at 45. Here I am. And I'm just like, oh my goodness, look at your skin. What have you done to yourself? No sunblock. You're like, gosh, if I would have gone backwards, you know, put the sunblock on multiple times. But uh you're you know, it is true because you're you're pointing out all the things and all the features that you absolutely hate about yourself. Yeah, but once you can finally get over to the love and what you know, your greatest strength about yourself and you can project in the mirror. I fucking love you. Yes, and love you. Yes, you're the greatest fucking person on earth. You're a great person to be around. Your company is huge, and like just manifest that and like put emphasis on there of like who this person is and how much you really like them. I mean, you could be a nobody and standing in your mirror and not have a lick of friends and not really going anywhere and just have that like honestly, I think it's like great mental health right there is projecting that love onto yourself, the sense of love and belonging. You don't have to look externally for that, you just have to accept it for yourself in your heart, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 37:56

And and that right there is more often than not the biggest hurdle that people face when they're starting this this whole journey of uh I don't know, whatever you want to call it, but I mean it it essentially boils down to waking the fuck up when when they start on that journey, that's the per the part that is the biggest issue, and that is connecting with yourself and believing that you are worthy and deserving of anything good, and and you have to so well you know about manifesting magnificence, my little pamphlet that I wrote, and when when I received that download of that information, so it's a it's just a three-step process for manifesting, and I was told in no uncertain terms that if you don't do anything else in this process, do the mirror work. That was the most important part. That was the key. Because if you don't believe that you deserve anything good, you will not allow it in. It might start to come in, but then you'll say, Oh no, this is too good to be true, or you know, who am I to have this cool thing? Or, you know, somehow or another, your energy will block it or push it away. You have to clear that block and understand that no matter what you think of yourself today, you are worthy, you have a purpose here, you have an important role to play in this life. Know your truth, yes, absolutely tell your story, yes, because your story, no matter what you might happen to think of it, there's somebody out there that is gonna resonate with and they are going to benefit greatly from hearing it because you don't know who you're affecting with your inner strength or you know, any of the qualities that you possess that you may not even take ownership of, you might not even see that in yourself, but other people do.

SPEAKER_01 40:27

Yeah, yes, yes, yes. How we impact others is huge, and sometimes all it takes is just a little nugget, yep. Just a little nugget of information for people to say, oh yes, you're kind of my kind of vibe.

SPEAKER_00 40:49

Yes, yes, and and oftentimes that little nugget is something that most people wouldn't even think twice about, like, oh yeah, that's you know, I've heard that before, or you know, whatever. But to somebody else who may not have ever experienced the way that you said that particular thing, that is gold. And that's why when I first was given the idea to start this podcast four years ago or whatever, um, when I got the download for the name, I was like, what? You know, like I I don't know about that. I mean, wake the fuck up, really? And and I was told yes, because the people that you are meant to reach, that's the type of conversation that they can get on board with. Like they would appreciate the fact that you're real and you swear and you speak like a normal fucking person, you know? Right, for real. And and I do. I I have unfortunately have always had a bit of a potty mouth, and so have I. You know, but that's just that's just me and deal with it. But yeah, but that was what I was told. The the reason the name is what it is is because that is what is going to connect me with the people that are meant to hear whatever messages come through in our conversations or the 50 whatever interviews that I did in season one.

SPEAKER_01 42:31

I think it's gonna be really cool to see who is going to listen to us and who we are going to reach and what other conversations this will have a trickle effect on.

SPEAKER_00 42:49

Oh, without a doubt. And I would love to take suggestions for topics that we can talk about because we both have varied experiences that we've lived in our life, and I would love to get input and feedback and anything else that people want to provide, you know, in in the way of suggestions or or the feedback I think is huge because we want to know like, do you actually get anything from these conversations? And I mean, that's our goal.

SPEAKER_01 43:28

Did we hit a nail? Did we surpass something?

SPEAKER_00 43:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 43:36

I mean, Lori and I can talk and talk and talk forever. So this for us was just a huge connection because I feel like more and more people are wanting authenticity. We're over the fake fucking people. Right. We're over the people that are staged and the it's a skit. No, I want real people. I want real everyday bullshit that people are going through and how we can connect with spirit and how we can just heal our central nervous systems and are activating you know the vagus nerve and getting in touch with ourselves. I think that is just golden right there.

SPEAKER_00 44:26

I agree with you. And because we all deal with it on some level, you know, surely there are plenty of people out there that have uh much, much greater levels of inner peace than I do. But you know, but I think that's it, you know, because I do suffer with this, that, and the other thing. You know, I grind my fucking teeth in my sleep, so I have to wear a bite guard at night. And you know, so like the tension is still there in me. I haven't, you know, reached this level of you know Zen master or whatever, and I don't I don't know that I ever would, to be perfectly honest with you, because life is life, you know? And life life. Yeah, and I'm in it. I'm in it for what whatever that looks like, whatever shows up, and I'm down. So yeah, well, I'm super, super stoked to be doing this again. I I loved season one, I had so much fun, but this is just this is a whole different flavor for me because it's not anything that like I didn't have a list of questions or anything like that because I'm not interviewing you, we're just having a conversation. So the flow I think is gonna be easier and gentler and you know more fun. And so I'm looking forward to how this season unfolds, and I'm grateful, we're grateful for everybody that tunes in and listens.

SPEAKER_01 46:00

And I would just like to put it out there that Lori and I before this, we we wanted to host it on Discord, we wanted to do this elaborate thing, and you know, it wasn't working. Like, we're on T T, we're like trying to figure it out, like I can hear you, I had an echo on my side. This was just being it was as nine because we're unplugging things, we're plugging it back in, we're trying to get things to connect, and you know what? It's just like the simple thing. All right, let's just hit record, let's just do a phone call and hit record. And I think this is the way that it's supposed to be.

SPEAKER_00 46:49

Yeah, I I agree with you. And I mean to to open audacity and just literally hit record while we're on a speaker phone on a phone call, on speaker phone, you know, whatever. And and it's funny to me because I'm I'm not I'm not technologically challenged. I'm actually quite tech savvy, but for whatever reason, I just was not getting it. And uh yeah, so I agree with you.

SPEAKER_01 47:16

It wasn't supposed to work that way, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 47:19

So this is it.

SPEAKER_01 47:20

I mean out of it, get out of the tacky stuff and just hit record and just have a conversation and see where it takes you.

SPEAKER_00 47:29

Yep, and so this is where we are. You get us on a on a speaker phone recorded call.

SPEAKER_01 47:36

Yeah, this is how we're doing it. We're raw dogging it.

SPEAKER_00 47:41

We are totally raw dogging it, and I I'm okay with that. So am I. Yep. I mean, you know, the tech stuff is great, and at some point I'm sure that we will figure it out because I've got this, you know, really cool microphone set up, and I've got my heads to headphones and all the shit, but yep, speaker phone it is, and audacity. Well, again, I thank you so much, Stacy, for taking time on your Saturday morning to join me for this. I'm super, super grateful and excited, and I can't wait to see what unfolds over the next coming weeks. And thank you to everybody that is actually tuning in and listening and giving a shit because we're grateful you're here. So thanks.

SPEAKER_01 48:30

Thank you so much for having me. And this is gonna be, I think this is gonna be great. It's gonna be a great creative outlook and what we bring to the conversation and what more topics are gonna come to light.

SPEAKER_00 48:45

Yeah, I agree. So if you are so inclined, join us again next week as we have another conversation and we continue to wake the fuck up.

SPEAKER_01 49:00

Enjoy your beautiful Saturday wherever you are listening from in this beautiful floating rock that we are on, and uh tune in next time.

SPEAKER_00 49:14

Yep, until then.

SPEAKER_01 49:16
