00:00:15.940 --> 00:00:17.260
Lisa, where are you?

2
00:00:17.660 --> 00:00:18.360
There you are.

3
00:00:19.240 --> 00:00:20.100
Hello, hello.

4
00:00:21.140 --> 00:00:22.320
I miss Lisa.

5
00:00:22.980 --> 00:00:24.460
Can you hear me?

6
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:26.460
You're on mute.

7
00:00:26.680 --> 00:00:27.420
Can you hear me okay?

8
00:00:30.540 --> 00:00:31.140
Yes.

9
00:00:31.540 --> 00:00:35.280
I unmute it when I initially log in.

10
00:00:35.400 --> 00:00:38.780
But when it opens up, it turns everything off again.

11
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:40.140
It's a default setting.

12
00:00:40.360 --> 00:00:40.980
That's okay.

13
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:42.440
Yeah, exactly.

14
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:43.820
How are things?

15
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:47.180
Things are going okay.

16
00:00:47.180 --> 00:00:50.020
I'm starting to get more focused.

17
00:00:50.500 --> 00:00:53.500
I am definitely on my way to Huntsville, Alabama.

18
00:00:54.060 --> 00:00:56.540
God gave me confirmation for that.

19
00:00:57.220 --> 00:00:57.220


20
00:00:57.340 --> 00:00:58.720
It's great to have clarity.

21
00:00:58.900 --> 00:00:59.740
That's a great area.

22
00:01:00.040 --> 00:01:00.680
Yeah.

23
00:01:01.300 --> 00:01:06.780
And my only ask today is if either of you have any contacts there,

24
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.420
or people you know, business people, whoever,

25
00:01:11.180 --> 00:01:13.380
would love to make a new friend.

26
00:01:13.380 --> 00:01:13.880
I would love to make a new friend.

27
00:01:14.080 --> 00:01:15.180
I will absolutely.

28
00:01:16.220 --> 00:01:19.900
Nobody off the top of my head comes to mind, but I'm sure we do.

29
00:01:20.160 --> 00:01:21.860
And I'm sure Ray knows someone out there.

30
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.060
And I would do a post in the group too.

31
00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:28.800
Just, you know, asking, Hey, who do you know?

32
00:01:29.160 --> 00:01:31.480
Is there anyone I can connect with?

33
00:01:32.820 --> 00:01:33.840
I don't know how to ask for help.

34
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:33.840


35
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.420
You say that and that seems to be, I, I'm not sure why.

36
00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:44.360
I don't know how to ask for help or it's like, I don't think to do it.

37
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.280
It's it's like something I've had in my life.

38
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:49.320
I just, I just do it myself.

39
00:01:49.860 --> 00:01:52.140
Which is really selfish in a lot of ways.

40
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:55.240
So thank you.

41
00:01:55.240 --> 00:01:59.180
Well, yeah, I mean,

42
00:01:59.820 --> 00:02:01.780
Look, nobody likes to ask for help.

43
00:02:02.580 --> 00:02:02.580


44
00:02:03.820 --> 00:02:08.560
Nobody is like nobody on this planet says I love asking people for help.

45
00:02:08.720 --> 00:02:11.200
And if they do, they're lying.

46
00:02:12.940 --> 00:02:14.880
Rebecca, do you like asking people for help?

47
00:02:15.900 --> 00:02:15.900


48
00:02:15.900 --> 00:02:16.520
Nope.

49
00:02:18.300 --> 00:02:18.360
Nope.

50
00:02:18.760 --> 00:02:18.760


51
00:02:18.760 --> 00:02:19.260
Nope.

52
00:02:19.260 --> 00:02:22.700
So this, this illusion that we, you know,

53
00:02:22.700 --> 00:02:25.700
I don't know why I don't like to ask people for help because we don't,

54
00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:26.720
because we're.

55
00:02:26.940 --> 00:02:29.920
Wired that way because we are, you know, human beings.

56
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:33.840
And we're wired to want to do everything ourselves and control

57
00:02:33.920 --> 00:02:37.260
everything. So there's nothing wrong with you. It's totally normal.

58
00:02:37.260 --> 00:02:37.680
Yeah.

59
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:37.680


60
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:37.680


61
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:37.680


62
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:37.680


63
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:41.000
I know you just move past it anyway and know that.

64
00:02:41.260 --> 00:02:43.800
People there's a community of people who want to help,

65
00:02:43.920 --> 00:02:46.020
who want to help support you in this big move.

66
00:02:46.220 --> 00:02:49.640
And this big decision. And I'm so excited for you.

67
00:02:49.920 --> 00:02:54.340
Because to have that clarity and that vision and go for it and,

68
00:02:54.980 --> 00:02:57.100
and be willing to move forward on it is huge.

69
00:02:57.100 --> 00:02:57.100


70
00:02:57.100 --> 00:02:57.100


71
00:02:57.100 --> 00:02:57.100


72
00:02:58.580 --> 00:03:00.440
Found a church already.

73
00:03:02.900 --> 00:03:04.520
Did I catch up?

74
00:03:04.740 --> 00:03:06.220
I said, I found a church.

75
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:11.720
I think we lost Jessica.

76
00:03:14.500 --> 00:03:14.940
Okay.

77
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.780
Okay. As long as you can hear me, that's okay. But your picture.

78
00:03:18.900 --> 00:03:20.480
I don't know if it's me or you.

79
00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:21.900
No, no, no.

80
00:03:21.900 --> 00:03:23.540
Yeah. You're cutting in and out a little Jess.

81
00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:28.040
Okay. Let me turn my video off here.

82
00:03:30.320 --> 00:03:31.580
Is that better?

83
00:03:34.180 --> 00:03:35.160
Keep talking.

84
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:39.380
Is that better? Can you hear me? Okay.

85
00:03:39.480 --> 00:03:41.140
Yeah. Yes, absolutely.

86
00:03:44.300 --> 00:03:44.740
Okay.

87
00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:44.960


88
00:03:45.500 --> 00:03:48.160
There may be a little bit of a delay.

89
00:03:50.940 --> 00:03:53.900
But I'll be, I'll be out of this area soon. So.

90
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:57.540
So what were you saying? You found a church, Lisa.

91
00:03:57.540 --> 00:03:59.040
Found a church.

92
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:03.600
I had connected with a church called Lake point church and rock wall,

93
00:04:04.160 --> 00:04:04.160


94
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:08.720
Over the last couple of weeks. And a friend of mine mentioned it a long time

95
00:04:08.720 --> 00:04:09.000
ago.

96
00:04:09.060 --> 00:04:14.040
And that's where I'm from. I'm about, I was like an hour from rock wall.

97
00:04:14.540 --> 00:04:15.100
And.

98
00:04:16.300 --> 00:04:19.579
I reached out to the church because I watched them virtually because

99
00:04:19.579 --> 00:04:20.260
they're in Texas.

100
00:04:21.320 --> 00:04:24.980
And I was communicating and saying, oh my gosh, I love you.

101
00:04:24.980 --> 00:04:25.700
And I was like, oh my gosh, I love you too.

102
00:04:25.700 --> 00:04:25.700


103
00:04:25.700 --> 00:04:29.320
And the people that were from the church were messaging me back saying,

104
00:04:29.660 --> 00:04:31.500
well, how can we pray for you? I'm like, well,

105
00:04:31.500 --> 00:04:33.400
can you help me find a church?

106
00:04:35.200 --> 00:04:35.620
They get.

107
00:04:36.960 --> 00:04:38.340
And they said, give me your email.

108
00:04:39.220 --> 00:04:42.680
And within an hour, they emailed me.

109
00:04:43.420 --> 00:04:46.000
A church that's super strong,

110
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:51.400
super powerful digging deep into the Lord in the Alabama area.

111
00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:54.340
And there's some in Tennessee and they had one in Huntsville.

112
00:04:54.620 --> 00:04:58.600
I'm like, thank you, Jesus. So it's, it's, it's all about asking for help.

113
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.360
Amen. Absolutely. So I'm excited to get the church and I just gotta somehow get in contact.

114
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:10.480
I emailed them but haven't heard back in three days. So I'm gonna pick up the phone after this.

115
00:05:12.500 --> 00:05:17.780
So what what are your moving plans? Do you have a date in mind?

116
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:26.280
Anytime before November 30th. So there's no date as such. My lease is up at the end of November.

117
00:05:26.280 --> 00:05:31.860
So it'll be November 30th at the latest. Right now I'm looking at opportunities.

118
00:05:33.220 --> 00:05:39.620
I found some really great opportunities. There's a couple at Boeing and I was in LinkedIn. Found

119
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:45.300
one and I've been praying over it. Lord do you want me to get back into IT and project

120
00:05:45.300 --> 00:05:50.400
management? And I'm getting maybe. And I'm like well do you want me to get back into manufacturing?

121
00:05:50.400 --> 00:05:59.420
Where it's been 20 plus years since I've done it but I just loved it. And I got a yes and I'm like

122
00:05:59.580 --> 00:06:05.160
okay. So I started looking for manufacturing jobs. You know team leads, assembly lines,

123
00:06:05.300 --> 00:06:11.020
stuff like that. Quality. I was big into hands-on. I used to be a CNC machine operator.

124
00:06:11.140 --> 00:06:19.560
That was my first job out of high school. Wow. So I've got lots of skills that no one knows about

125
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:25.980
I just you know. Yeah you know that's I mean that's a very specific skill set. So

126
00:06:26.860 --> 00:06:34.460
I think that's that's wonderful. Well and the cool part is is when I was looking at the job

127
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:39.920
LinkedIn said oh you've got two contacts that actually work there. And I went oh my gosh one

128
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:49.540
of them I worked with at the last position. So I reached out to him and he's like call me. I'm

129
00:06:49.540 --> 00:06:54.760
in the flow. You're in the flow right? Yeah absolutely. So I would absolutely post on

130
00:06:55.780 --> 00:07:02.500
I would be posting in Rankmakers and in the Faith and Finance group and say hey who do you know in

131
00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:08.940
Huntsville? Okay. I'm going out there. I'm making the move. I'd love to connect with some like-minded

132
00:07:08.940 --> 00:07:15.880
people. Yes absolutely. Guaranteed you'll have tons of tons of answers. And sorry there might

133
00:07:15.880 --> 00:07:23.680
be a little bit of a delay. But I'll be out of this area soon. But yeah that's why I keep

134
00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:35.640
interrupting you. Well where are you hunkered down at? Me and you know Tyler yeah. I do not.

135
00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:44.040
You know Tyler from the swag shop that does all of our swag. Yes I didn't. I didn't remember her

136
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:55.400
okay got it yes. Yeah so she her and I had a meeting this afternoon. So Angela how are you?

137
00:07:57.640 --> 00:08:04.560
One day at a time sweet Jesus. So amen. Yeah so

138
00:08:07.280 --> 00:08:14.180
it's you know I'm just asking God for direction. It's this has been a year of a lot of sifting in

139
00:08:14.180 --> 00:08:22.640
a lot of ways. And so you know we sold our cleaning company and and was very generously

140
00:08:22.640 --> 00:08:34.539
hired on by the the owner to to really not do much. Although we were giving him you know we

141
00:08:34.539 --> 00:08:42.900
but this year exceptionally has been a year of losing some major contracts which was disappointing.

142
00:08:43.460 --> 00:08:51.140
And we've got the MIC which is the Fort Belvoir contract that they've they said that it's ours.

143
00:08:51.580 --> 00:09:04.520
But I you know before I really report back that it's ours I need a start date and just a lot of

144
00:09:04.520 --> 00:09:12.680
laid me off from the position which you know was a hundred thousand K salary hit. I still

145
00:09:12.680 --> 00:09:21.880
get my commissions but you know it's been a little bit of a year. So yeah just yeah.

146
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:32.960
And what I mean what just keeps coming up for me is that God is on the move and what a blessing.

147
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:40.940
And I was so today to talk about something that I never talk about because I'm not an expert in

148
00:09:40.940 --> 00:09:47.400
in any way shape or form. But you know I think I think it's something that maybe this group is

149
00:09:47.400 --> 00:09:55.940
going through and that's that's health. I just really felt nudged to to talk today this group

150
00:09:55.940 --> 00:09:59.880
about how you're taking care of yourselves and.

151
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:09.660
you know at the same time myself and talk through what that looks like personal

152
00:10:09.660 --> 00:10:13.920
perspective but also a finance perspective a healing perspective a

153
00:10:13.920 --> 00:10:18.520
spiritual perspective because if we're not taking care of ourselves everything

154
00:10:18.520 --> 00:10:26.560
falls apart around us it really does and I don't know if you it's I know it's

155
00:10:26.560 --> 00:10:32.500
been a year for you and and Lisa I know it's been a year for you and a lot of

156
00:10:32.500 --> 00:10:36.360
things around in both of your lives I mean he's on the move clearly and he's

157
00:10:37.060 --> 00:10:43.180
he is definitely moving people this year in big ways you're not alone I've heard

158
00:10:43.180 --> 00:10:49.940
it from many many entrepreneurs many business owners even parents you know

159
00:10:49.940 --> 00:10:55.420
just a lot of going and shifts happening in the world and we know that a lot of

160
00:10:55.420 --> 00:10:57.160
that is spiritual too right but

161
00:11:05.820 --> 00:11:21.560
we lost oh yeah you're cutting off chest am I what did you hear

162
00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:29.380
you're talking about God shifting we did hear you mention that we have to

163
00:11:29.380 --> 00:11:32.300
take care of ourselves or everything falls apart and that you're seeing it

164
00:11:32.300 --> 00:11:35.600
all over the place you're hearing it in parenting you're hearing it from lots of

165
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:41.580
lots of people right now yeah no just in general you know I don't know if that

166
00:11:41.580 --> 00:11:52.060
speaks to you Angela but really focusing and shifting in all and and that's

167
00:11:52.060 --> 00:11:55.700
something that God has really been moving in my life as well as to just

168
00:11:55.700 --> 00:12:04.700
take care of myself and I feel a constant urge to to move to do something

169
00:12:04.700 --> 00:12:14.740
to just to create to to work even if you want to really boil it down to brass

170
00:12:14.740 --> 00:12:19.960
knuckles it's to work is what I feel a constant urge to do and I've really felt

171
00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:26.500
God shifting me into hey wait a minute actually right now actually I'm making

172
00:12:26.500 --> 00:12:31.480
big moves in your life and you need rest and you need health you need to focus on

173
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:37.500
your health and focus on on you and get back to where you feel good and and then

174
00:12:37.580 --> 00:12:45.140
those things are gonna start to be in the flow I feel great I mean that's one

175
00:12:45.140 --> 00:12:49.500
thing I do do I you know work out three times a week at 6 a.m. in the morning and

176
00:12:49.500 --> 00:12:58.820
you know 5 a.m. is my prayer time and 6 a.m. is my gym and you know through

177
00:12:59.260 --> 00:13:06.320
spiritual food and taking care of my body I've been pretty even keeled to the

178
00:13:07.580 --> 00:13:16.120
storm but yeah I mean I get what you're putting down I I agree with that

179
00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:22.200
do you know that's awesome that's great that you're continuing to do that

180
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:28.700
through through this time and maybe it's just a reminder to continue that and not

181
00:13:28.700 --> 00:13:32.840
lose sight of that especially with with everything happening in your life but I

182
00:13:32.840 --> 00:13:38.120
just really feel like for you and I've been praying for you and over you and

183
00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:46.240
your family and he's just moving you guys out of out of a season I think and

184
00:13:47.060 --> 00:13:57.200
so what was your what was your go-to when this salary got cut I mean what

185
00:13:57.200 --> 00:14:01.980
what was your first thought what was your first action how did you how did

186
00:14:01.980 --> 00:14:13.660
you take that well the the first action as I saw it I my friend came into the

187
00:14:13.660 --> 00:14:20.280
door and she needed consoling so for a half an hour I consoled her while I told

188
00:14:20.280 --> 00:14:26.040
no one and she's also the gal that helps us with the house she's just been a good

189
00:14:26.040 --> 00:14:32.180
friend as well so I know I'm she probably wondered what was going on

190
00:14:32.180 --> 00:14:37.780
because I I was handling it really well but I I mean honestly it's been a

191
00:14:38.180 --> 00:14:45.660
blessing to to be here in Florida and have that salary and just basically work

192
00:14:45.660 --> 00:14:49.560
you know do marketing when I want to and when I don't I just do everything else

193
00:14:49.560 --> 00:14:57.640
in my life yeah so in some ways I haven't been the best steward of that

194
00:14:57.640 --> 00:14:59.420
although he's never really given me

195
00:15:01.260 --> 00:15:05.960
you know, a time frame of how many hours I have to work a day or anything like that.

196
00:15:08.140 --> 00:15:16.240
But I don't know, I guess, you know, you know, Nick On is the owner's name and I mean, Nick

197
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:25.280
On is not my supply and he's always, you know, just there in a lot of different ways for

198
00:15:25.280 --> 00:15:25.740
our family.

199
00:15:25.740 --> 00:15:28.580
But, you know, God's our supply.

200
00:15:29.020 --> 00:15:37.000
And so more than ever before, with things kind of, you know, with the salon and everything

201
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:43.840
just everything coming up at one time that needs help, I have nothing else to do but

202
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:52.600
to cry out for God and just ask him to show me, you know, I mean, everywhere I go, I share

203
00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:53.140
the gospel.

204
00:15:53.620 --> 00:15:57.980
I truly believe that when all is said and done, the only thing that matters is what

205
00:15:57.980 --> 00:16:04.140
we do for Christ and, you know, who the only thing we can take with us to heaven are the

206
00:16:04.140 --> 00:16:05.640
souls that we lead to Jesus.

207
00:16:07.100 --> 00:16:10.520
And but I know that he's come to give us abundant life.

208
00:16:11.140 --> 00:16:20.760
And right now, you know, Satan has been at our door this year with killing and stealing

209
00:16:20.760 --> 00:16:21.440
and destroying.

210
00:16:21.780 --> 00:16:24.120
But greater is he that's in us than he that's in the world.

211
00:16:24.200 --> 00:16:25.780
And we are fighting in victory.

212
00:16:25.900 --> 00:16:26.760
I believe that.

213
00:16:27.880 --> 00:16:36.460
And that's where I'm minding my mind, you know, to move forward with that.

214
00:16:38.800 --> 00:16:41.900
So, you know, he loves us and he wants us to grow.

215
00:16:42.140 --> 00:16:47.840
And that has not been my track record since January.

216
00:16:50.600 --> 00:16:53.340
But I know that God has a better plan.

217
00:16:54.020 --> 00:16:55.280
And I'm just.

218
00:16:55.700 --> 00:17:02.740
If you had to guess, if you had to guess what that plan was or when you're in prayer, you're

219
00:17:03.020 --> 00:17:07.140
asking God, why, you know, what's happening here, Lord?

220
00:17:07.140 --> 00:17:08.200
What do I need to know?

221
00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:10.319
What do I need to know about this situation?

222
00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:15.980
What do I need to know about this circumstance and everything going on?

223
00:17:15.980 --> 00:17:17.480
What do you want me to know in this moment?

224
00:17:17.740 --> 00:17:19.260
What shows up for you?

225
00:17:22.940 --> 00:17:27.900
Well, you know, there's a lot going on, you know, with my husband, you know, and yeah,

226
00:17:27.900 --> 00:17:29.020
in a lot of different ways.

227
00:17:29.360 --> 00:17:36.420
And so, you know, we you know, I know that we need to get on the same page and we're

228
00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:39.880
not right there at all.

229
00:17:40.420 --> 00:17:44.000
And I know God is working in that situation as well.

230
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:53.500
And so, but I mean, ultimately, I know that, you know, our whole family has been set apart

231
00:17:54.160 --> 00:18:00.280
to share the gospel in major ways for this end time harvest.

232
00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:10.260
And we've always been financiers of the gospel, and we still are funding a lot of missionaries

233
00:18:10.260 --> 00:18:16.380
and, you know, a lot of things even here locally for the for the spreading of the gospel.

234
00:18:18.580 --> 00:18:30.300
And, you know, that's where I've always seen us, you know, as, you know, working in, you

235
00:18:30.300 --> 00:18:36.980
know, ministry, financing the gospel, but also being part of sharing and moving it forward.

236
00:18:36.980 --> 00:18:44.600
But right now, I'm just trying to be still and I'm definitely more of a Martha than a

237
00:18:44.600 --> 00:18:49.620
Mary because I, like you, just, you know, feel like I need to be creating and doing

238
00:18:49.740 --> 00:18:56.400
and I know where my talents are and I know, you know, I know how to move things to the

239
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:02.040
finish line, but I feel like God's just wanting me to be still for a moment.

240
00:19:02.040 --> 00:19:12.660
And so I've signed up for the Brilliance Conference, and nobody's at our Airbnb, so I'm not so

241
00:19:12.660 --> 00:19:17.880
crazy that the Brilliance Conference is also on Sunday, because I always think we should

242
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:23.120
be in our own houses of worship during that time, but I think for the first time, I'm

243
00:19:23.120 --> 00:19:24.000
not going to go to my church.

244
00:19:24.080 --> 00:19:30.620
I'm just going to hang into the full thing of the Brilliance Conference and just have

245
00:19:30.620 --> 00:19:36.520
a blank pad of paper and, you know, just lean in for God's direction.

246
00:19:37.620 --> 00:19:44.700
Yeah, and in a lot of ways, the whole conference is around worship, right, really leaning

247
00:19:44.700 --> 00:19:49.680
into becoming closer to him, even when we think we're so close, we can always get

248
00:19:49.380 --> 00:19:54.940
closer. So but I definitely appreciate that feedback and I'll bring that feedback to

249
00:19:55.060 --> 00:19:59.920
the conference in some way, because I definitely see it as valid and.

250
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:06.540
We want to, we want to honor all of those, those principles that God set before us.

251
00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:15.860
So I'm really glad that you're going to be a part of it and I, when you're, when you

252
00:20:15.860 --> 00:20:25.040
are going through personal situations like what you're going through, it is impossible

253
00:20:25.040 --> 00:20:28.820
Angela to give 100% to your business world.

254
00:20:28.820 --> 00:20:33.980
It's just some people throw themselves into, and I'm not saying you do this, but some people

255
00:20:33.980 --> 00:20:39.340
throw themselves into their business, their work, other activities so that they don't

256
00:20:39.340 --> 00:20:43.980
focus on what's going on or don't, you know, that they get distracted from it.

257
00:20:43.980 --> 00:20:48.720
And even then, even when they try and throw 100% into what they're doing, usually because

258
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:53.500
of their trying from their own efforts, it just, it, it, it doesn't come together.

259
00:20:54.340 --> 00:21:00.860
And so with everything going on in your world, I'm so happy to hear that you're being still

260
00:21:00.860 --> 00:21:05.740
right now and that you're just letting, letting things happen and, and just working through

261
00:21:05.740 --> 00:21:09.580
what this means for you and your family and, and how this is going to all, he's going to

262
00:21:09.580 --> 00:21:16.320
all work it out because it's impossible to go into all of the responsibilities that you

263
00:21:16.320 --> 00:21:21.100
have as a business owner, as an entrepreneur, as a mom, as a wife, it's impossible to go

264
00:21:21.100 --> 00:21:27.480
into all of those a hundred percent without really stepping back and mending what's broken.

265
00:21:28.800 --> 00:21:33.380
And it'll happen because of who you are and because of who your family is.

266
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:38.240
And it's actually, you know, when you take a step back, it's a, it's a beautiful thing.

267
00:21:39.100 --> 00:21:45.820
Even in the moment, it's so hurtful and so, so crushing, but that mending what's broken,

268
00:21:45.820 --> 00:21:51.820
whether in you or as a family is so, so important right now.

269
00:21:52.580 --> 00:21:57.160
And I know that you know that, but just to reiterate it, I can't stress that enough is

270
00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:05.540
this is your time for healing and maybe God was moving some of those different avenues around

271
00:22:05.540 --> 00:22:12.220
so that you could really, really focus on mending what's broken.

272
00:22:14.600 --> 00:22:20.220
And men, men in general, you know, they, and Ray and I have been through a lot of ups and

273
00:22:20.220 --> 00:22:20.500
downs.

274
00:22:20.800 --> 00:22:24.700
You know, we haven't been, how long have you been married, Angela?

275
00:22:25.980 --> 00:22:26.620
24 years.

276
00:22:26.780 --> 00:22:27.200
24.

277
00:22:27.260 --> 00:22:27.560
Okay.

278
00:22:27.560 --> 00:22:28.720
So we're going on 15.

279
00:22:28.840 --> 00:22:31.360
So not as long as, as you have.

280
00:22:32.540 --> 00:22:37.420
But even in those 15 years, I mean, the, the seven year itch is real.

281
00:22:37.500 --> 00:22:41.460
You know, there's so many ups and downs that come and 10 years can be tough.

282
00:22:42.420 --> 00:22:48.980
And I will say that I, as I think we have very similar personalities, very similar drives,

283
00:22:49.180 --> 00:22:53.000
very similar methods of operation and how we, how we do things.

284
00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:59.460
And I will say that I have really, really had to as hard as it's been at times, but

285
00:22:59.460 --> 00:23:01.980
God has called me so strongly many times.

286
00:23:01.980 --> 00:23:06.380
I have really had to slow down and just be.

287
00:23:07.060 --> 00:23:17.760
And I love the, one of the analogies that, that that Dion uses when, when he talks and

288
00:23:17.760 --> 00:23:22.520
he talks about light versus darkness and how, when you turn on a light, the darkness doesn't

289
00:23:22.520 --> 00:23:27.520
fight, you know, it doesn't, it doesn't try and get its last little dark hole out.

290
00:23:27.540 --> 00:23:31.420
It just, when you turn on a light in a room, the light just takes over.

291
00:23:31.520 --> 00:23:32.700
It completely takes over.

292
00:23:32.700 --> 00:23:41.180
And so focusing on the light, being the light, just being, just being in his presence and

293
00:23:41.180 --> 00:23:48.900
really taking a step back and knowing that doing, creating all of the time is not necessarily

294
00:23:48.900 --> 00:23:51.920
how he wants us or our best option in the moment.

295
00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:57.600
And focusing on who he is and embracing all of those characters in every moment that we

296
00:23:57.620 --> 00:24:00.780
can and flush out the darkness in such a big way.

297
00:24:00.780 --> 00:24:07.860
And oftentimes with Ray, I would focus on what he's, and again, I, I'm not saying that

298
00:24:07.860 --> 00:24:08.500
you do this.

299
00:24:08.500 --> 00:24:10.400
I'm just sharing from my own experience.

300
00:24:10.900 --> 00:24:19.080
I would focus on what he lacked or where I was picking up the slack that he wasn't, or

301
00:24:19.520 --> 00:24:23.840
you know, focus, focusing on the areas that weren't working for us.

302
00:24:24.460 --> 00:24:29.700
And when I would shift, or if his energy was low, something as simple as his energy being

303
00:24:29.700 --> 00:24:33.500
low or not where I wanted it to be when, when we were supposed to be having a family

304
00:24:33.500 --> 00:24:34.840
day or things like that.

305
00:24:35.260 --> 00:24:42.860
When I shifted that from focusing on essentially the darkness, the lower, the lower vibrations,

306
00:24:43.140 --> 00:24:48.840
the enemy coming in and focusing on where I could be and I could make a difference.

307
00:24:48.840 --> 00:24:53.580
And I was the light and I was going to just bring that energy into the relationship.

308
00:24:54.760 --> 00:24:58.340
I definitely saw a shift in how he showed up too.

309
00:24:58.340 --> 00:24:59.880
And again.

310
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:01.760
I'm just speaking from my own experience.

311
00:25:02.020 --> 00:25:03.380
I know you're going through some things

312
00:25:03.380 --> 00:25:06.220
that I have never had experience with,

313
00:25:08.020 --> 00:25:11.140
but I really feel like we're the same human being

314
00:25:11.140 --> 00:25:12.180
in a lot of ways.

315
00:25:12.540 --> 00:25:15.500
And so I don't know if that helps

316
00:25:15.500 --> 00:25:16.940
or resonates with you at all,

317
00:25:16.940 --> 00:25:18.560
but just some things that I've learned

318
00:25:18.560 --> 00:25:20.820
throughout our relationship is that I've really focused

319
00:25:20.820 --> 00:25:23.740
on just being the light and shining on him

320
00:25:23.740 --> 00:25:25.080
when he needs it most.

321
00:25:27.020 --> 00:25:28.700
And you may be already doing that,

322
00:25:28.700 --> 00:25:30.460
but that's something I really had to step back

323
00:25:30.460 --> 00:25:33.380
because I didn't have the energy a lot of times to do that.

324
00:25:33.580 --> 00:25:35.580
I was so focused on the kids,

325
00:25:35.960 --> 00:25:37.660
so focused on the business,

326
00:25:38.340 --> 00:25:39.880
so focused on what I was doing.

327
00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:44.920
I had taken a lot of that energy away from him

328
00:25:45.780 --> 00:25:48.240
and what he needed from me

329
00:25:48.560 --> 00:25:51.140
as our relationship was moving forward.

330
00:25:51.320 --> 00:25:52.780
And it takes two, absolutely.

331
00:25:53.020 --> 00:25:56.520
I mean, he was not innocent in any way,

332
00:25:56.560 --> 00:25:58.060
shape or form in a lot of ways,

333
00:25:58.060 --> 00:26:00.560
but instead of me focusing on that,

334
00:26:00.860 --> 00:26:04.380
I just really had to take a step back

335
00:26:04.380 --> 00:26:06.020
and refocus my energy

336
00:26:06.020 --> 00:26:08.180
and how I was pouring it out into the family

337
00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:12.120
and be creative in other ways, right?

338
00:26:12.120 --> 00:26:13.740
Be more of a family creative

339
00:26:15.780 --> 00:26:18.020
instead of always focusing that in on,

340
00:26:18.320 --> 00:26:20.320
I have to make it work in the business.

341
00:26:21.980 --> 00:26:22.320
Right.

342
00:26:22.700 --> 00:26:25.240
I mean, I guess another way to say that

343
00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:29.480
is love conquers all, but it's, yeah.

344
00:26:30.460 --> 00:26:31.720
I, yeah, I really,

345
00:26:32.620 --> 00:26:37.420
I really for the first time in 24 years

346
00:26:37.420 --> 00:26:39.760
have been pretty frustrated

347
00:26:39.940 --> 00:26:43.080
and probably not been the light

348
00:26:43.080 --> 00:26:46.620
after being the light for 24 years.

349
00:26:48.320 --> 00:26:49.160
Yeah.

350
00:26:50.020 --> 00:26:51.700
But yeah,

351
00:26:55.040 --> 00:26:56.560
I get it.

352
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:01.460
I don't know if that resonates with you at all or helps,

353
00:27:02.380 --> 00:27:05.760
but I really had to learn that throughout our marriage

354
00:27:09.280 --> 00:27:13.860
that I was focusing that light in the wrong ways sometimes

355
00:27:14.360 --> 00:27:16.300
or just depleting myself

356
00:27:16.300 --> 00:27:17.740
where I didn't need to be depleted.

357
00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:20.060
I don't know if that resonates.

358
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:26.740
But that's something that I've definitely come to learn.

359
00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:29.620
And when, especially when you're working together

360
00:27:29.620 --> 00:27:30.960
and you're doing ministry together,

361
00:27:31.020 --> 00:27:33.400
there's a lot of things that come with that.

362
00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:35.980
And you take on other people's energies too.

363
00:27:36.360 --> 00:27:37.840
There's a lot of other people's energies

364
00:27:37.840 --> 00:27:41.620
that creep into the relationship

365
00:27:41.620 --> 00:27:44.180
and creep into the business too.

366
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:47.960
And learning to really block that,

367
00:27:48.700 --> 00:27:54.500
not in a, it's not that you're not loving on those people

368
00:27:54.500 --> 00:27:56.500
and helping them through what they're going through,

369
00:27:57.020 --> 00:27:59.340
but learning to not bring it home with you,

370
00:27:59.360 --> 00:28:00.820
I guess is the way to put it,

371
00:28:00.820 --> 00:28:03.060
has been a learning experience for us too.

372
00:28:03.180 --> 00:28:05.320
Because oftentimes we'd go to an event

373
00:28:05.320 --> 00:28:09.000
or we'd be doing something in the business

374
00:28:09.040 --> 00:28:11.720
or running a mastermind or what have you.

375
00:28:12.120 --> 00:28:14.260
And it would come home with us

376
00:28:14.260 --> 00:28:15.340
because of the different things

377
00:28:15.340 --> 00:28:17.720
that people would bring to the table

378
00:28:17.720 --> 00:28:20.340
that are either heartbreaking or need help

379
00:28:20.340 --> 00:28:21.420
or what have you.

380
00:28:22.020 --> 00:28:24.460
And we couldn't let that energy infect

381
00:28:25.100 --> 00:28:26.860
what we had going either.

382
00:28:29.420 --> 00:28:31.400
So putting those blocks up

383
00:28:31.400 --> 00:28:34.440
and even praying for those cords to be removed

384
00:28:34.700 --> 00:28:36.320
because they're so real.

385
00:28:36.700 --> 00:28:41.000
Those cords are so real and they can absolutely drain.

386
00:28:42.620 --> 00:28:44.880
They can allow the enemy in, right?

387
00:28:46.260 --> 00:28:46.940
Right.

388
00:28:50.580 --> 00:28:51.260
Right.

389
00:28:52.380 --> 00:28:54.380
So now moving forward,

390
00:28:58.200 --> 00:29:00.560
how do you feel about

391
00:29:03.040 --> 00:29:05.440
everything that's happening with what God is doing?

392
00:29:05.560 --> 00:29:07.180
I mean, I know brilliance is gonna help

393
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:09.860
through answering some of those questions,

394
00:29:10.100 --> 00:29:12.720
but how are you feeling right now?

395
00:29:13.580 --> 00:29:14.180
Hmm.

396
00:29:16.820 --> 00:29:22.060
So someone who was a missionary in Korea

397
00:29:22.060 --> 00:29:26.580
who had been hung upside down and electrocuted and survived

398
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:29.440
once looked at me and said,

399
00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:31.980
I see you as the Joshua tree.

400
00:29:31.980 --> 00:29:34.340
And I didn't really know what that meant,

401
00:29:34.360 --> 00:29:36.360
but I looked up the Joshua tree.

402
00:29:37.340 --> 00:29:39.920
And historically I've been through a lot in my life,

403
00:29:39.920 --> 00:29:45.380
but I have a lot of word in me and I love the word

404
00:29:45.380 --> 00:29:47.780
and I chew on the word and I meditate on the word.

405
00:29:47.940 --> 00:29:50.840
And I know that the word, when you send it out,

406
00:29:50.840 --> 00:29:52.160
it will not come back void,

407
00:29:52.180 --> 00:29:54.660
but it will go out and accomplish all that it's meant to do.

408
00:29:54.740 --> 00:29:57.500
And if you don't have this book,

409
00:29:57.660 --> 00:29:58.900
which is by Jermaine Copeland,

410
00:29:59.500 --> 00:29:59.980
which has a lot of words in it,

411
00:29:59.960 --> 00:29:59.960


412
00:29:59.980 --> 00:29:59.980


413
00:29:59.980 --> 00:29:59.980


414
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:09.460
as just any prayer on anything from the will of God to, you know, trouble in marriage to,

415
00:30:09.660 --> 00:30:17.520
you know, selling a home. And then at the back of the prayer, it just lists all the verses that,

416
00:30:18.080 --> 00:30:27.620
you know, the prayer was made from. It's a crafted prayer, right? These were crafted

417
00:30:27.620 --> 00:30:37.260
prayers probably before Graham crafted prayers. I don't know. Anyway, but the Word does not come

418
00:30:37.260 --> 00:30:46.780
back void. And so I'm really good at just speaking out the Word. And I know the Word works and the

419
00:30:46.780 --> 00:30:56.320
Word washes and the Word will not come back void. And so I do stand on the Word. And I think that's

420
00:30:56.320 --> 00:31:07.500
of what's made me kind of a Joshua tree. And so, but sometimes I feel pretty numb, which

421
00:31:08.380 --> 00:31:18.420
is maybe not a good place to be because, yeah, it takes me a lot to cry. So,

422
00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:29.060
um, yeah. So, I mean, I can pretty much go through any situation and come out the other side.

423
00:31:31.620 --> 00:31:39.080
It's part of the grit, but it's with the Word. And so, so how am I feeling? Kind of numb,

424
00:31:39.100 --> 00:31:43.700
I guess, just knowing that, you know, standing on God's promise that, you know,

425
00:31:43.700 --> 00:31:50.460
my latter lives will be better than my former life and that He does have great and mighty

426
00:31:50.460 --> 00:31:55.860
things in store for us that our eyes have not seen nor ears have heard. And that, you know,

427
00:31:55.860 --> 00:32:00.100
what the enemy has made for evil, God says He will turn it around and make it for good.

428
00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:06.900
And His Word is yes and amen. And He's not a man that should lie. And so, um,

429
00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:15.780
just, um, and I, I know how to speak in my spiritual language, which is praying God's

430
00:32:15.780 --> 00:32:19.900
perfect will for your life. And I don't know if any of you here on the line believe in that.

431
00:32:21.600 --> 00:32:28.980
But that has sustained me when, you know, um, I've gone through all my prayers,

432
00:32:29.060 --> 00:32:32.620
just praying for God's perfect will for, for my life, you know?

433
00:32:33.500 --> 00:32:42.060
Yeah, absolutely. So I, I hear you and I love that about you. You are one of the strongest

434
00:32:42.060 --> 00:32:50.320
women I've ever met in my life. You are so strong and you, your outlook, your positivity,

435
00:32:50.780 --> 00:32:56.340
everything that you stand for and that you speak out is beautiful and is so inspiring.

436
00:32:58.140 --> 00:33:09.280
And I also was numb at a time in my life and God wanted me to feel. And what I, what I get from all

437
00:33:09.280 --> 00:33:15.860
of that and, and see within you, because I saw within myself and been through it within myself

438
00:33:15.860 --> 00:33:24.540
is I was completely numb after a few things that had happened about six years ago, completely numb.

439
00:33:24.540 --> 00:33:32.620
Like just because I had blocked out so many things and at this, at that moment, I wasn't a

440
00:33:32.620 --> 00:33:38.660
believer, but I was, um, you know, really focused on, I had come from the world of personal development,

441
00:33:38.660 --> 00:33:44.680
right? So come from the world of just positivity and constantly speaking positive affirmations over

442
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:51.520
yourself and everything. And I had developed this, this numbness that, um, I didn't even know that I,

443
00:33:51.520 --> 00:33:56.540
that I had. So the fact that you framed it and could actually articulate what you were feeling

444
00:33:56.540 --> 00:34:03.580
as numbness is a huge self-awareness. Okay. And with that self-awareness, that's the numbness

445
00:34:04.760 --> 00:34:13.920
isn't what allows us to heal. It's the feeling and placing that on him, placing that on God and

446
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:23.540
in his hands and being okay with being extremely angry, with being frustrated, with being mad,

447
00:34:23.780 --> 00:34:29.040
with being sad, with being all the things and placing that in his arms and moving through it

448
00:34:29.040 --> 00:34:35.659
with him and not necessarily having to be the strong person all of the time, not necessarily

449
00:34:35.659 --> 00:34:42.159
having to carry that all of the time. And knowing at this point with how much scripture that you

450
00:34:42.360 --> 00:34:50.199
over your life, every single day, the fact that you feel numb, I know is not where God wants you.

451
00:34:50.380 --> 00:34:54.719
He doesn't want you to be numb. He wants you to be passionate. He wants you to feel,

452
00:34:54.900 --> 00:34:59.940
he wants you to be excited and motivated and, and on fire.

453
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:05.000
which are all the things that you've experienced throughout your life because he made you the way that you are.

454
00:35:05.620 --> 00:35:09.540
Because you are, like I said, you are one of the strongest, most incredible,

455
00:35:10.620 --> 00:35:11.140
hard-working,

456
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:12.640
beautiful,

457
00:35:13.780 --> 00:35:21.120
and I've seen your passion, passionate women that I've ever met. And that's saying a lot because I've met a lot of women and

458
00:35:23.380 --> 00:35:27.180
that numbness that you're feeling is not what God wants for your life.

459
00:35:28.560 --> 00:35:30.180
That's not who you are and

460
00:35:31.240 --> 00:35:35.200
I have a feeling that that numbness has been around longer than you want to admit.

461
00:35:36.120 --> 00:35:38.000
How do I know that? Because

462
00:35:39.200 --> 00:35:41.140
that used to happen for me.

463
00:35:43.540 --> 00:35:49.100
And God wants you to feel it, let it out and put it on him.

464
00:35:53.020 --> 00:35:53.580
I

465
00:35:54.920 --> 00:35:59.460
was so tired of feeling like everything was on my shoulders all of the time.

466
00:36:01.840 --> 00:36:09.780
I was so tired of it that I got so angry and had so many spinning plates and so many things going on

467
00:36:12.080 --> 00:36:14.700
that I just numbed... I numbed out the world and

468
00:36:16.860 --> 00:36:21.900
I was not self-aware enough to put the word numb in front of what I was feeling.

469
00:36:21.900 --> 00:36:24.960
I thought I was just stoic. I

470
00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:26.460
thought I was just, you know,

471
00:36:27.320 --> 00:36:34.540
just, you know, I was just even-keeled. I'm even-keeled. I'm a... I can handle anything. I can handle everything.

472
00:36:34.780 --> 00:36:37.740
That's who I am. I'm just an even-keeled person.

473
00:36:37.960 --> 00:36:45.940
But really I was completely numb inside and I was too afraid to get excited because of the disappointment that might come in my

474
00:36:46.060 --> 00:36:54.100
life and I was too worried to be sad or to show emotion because I thought that showed weakness in my life.

475
00:36:54.600 --> 00:37:00.320
And I thought that people who showed that they would cry or people that showed weakness or people who would actually let their emotions

476
00:37:00.320 --> 00:37:06.440
out were weak. That was a weak way of being and that's not who I was and it broke me.

477
00:37:06.460 --> 00:37:12.080
I just had a moment where, many moments actually, it took some time where I just

478
00:37:13.240 --> 00:37:14.280
broke and

479
00:37:16.420 --> 00:37:17.540
now I

480
00:37:17.540 --> 00:37:22.920
still have similar drives, but I'm so much more present and such a happier person.

481
00:37:23.220 --> 00:37:27.000
I'm just a happier person when I let all that I have to be this way go.

482
00:37:29.060 --> 00:37:29.620
And

483
00:37:29.620 --> 00:37:31.840
I just I feel like you're on the brink of

484
00:37:32.580 --> 00:37:34.840
really, really just giving it all to him and

485
00:37:35.980 --> 00:37:39.640
jumping into something amazing, the life that you truly, truly want and

486
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:44.320
not that you haven't had an amazing life thus far. I was a super grateful person.

487
00:37:44.580 --> 00:37:49.440
I mean I had, I had it made in the shade. I had an amazing life, but it wasn't

488
00:37:49.760 --> 00:37:57.280
necessarily for me. Again, this is for me. It wasn't necessarily the life that I actually wanted,

489
00:37:58.160 --> 00:38:00.640
that I truly craved and desired and

490
00:38:03.640 --> 00:38:04.760
so I

491
00:38:04.760 --> 00:38:06.520
think God wants to give that to you.

492
00:38:08.060 --> 00:38:12.920
But that realness has to happen.

493
00:38:14.100 --> 00:38:14.700
Amen.

494
00:38:17.860 --> 00:38:20.540
Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing.

495
00:38:22.520 --> 00:38:25.340
Amen. I know we're in a battle and

496
00:38:26.840 --> 00:38:27.680
you know,

497
00:38:28.820 --> 00:38:31.820
you know, every day since I held my kids in my arms,

498
00:38:31.820 --> 00:38:38.760
I would pray that they would lead millions to Christ in Jesus name and I speak a blessing over them every day and that's still

499
00:38:38.760 --> 00:38:39.900
part of the blessing.

500
00:38:41.120 --> 00:38:41.320
And

501
00:38:41.540 --> 00:38:44.860
my one child who's in Bible college is actually

502
00:38:46.100 --> 00:38:51.880
now the armor-bearer for our pastor here in Tampa, which is a

503
00:38:51.880 --> 00:38:55.640
huge responsibility and I know it's come with, you know,

504
00:38:56.580 --> 00:38:57.220
and

505
00:38:57.220 --> 00:39:02.440
the battle's on. We just need to put on the full armor every day, because

506
00:39:03.220 --> 00:39:06.060
it's, you know, the enemy is

507
00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:09.040
scared, because his time is short.

508
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:10.060
Yeah.

509
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:16.040
But yes, what you did say to me does resonate.

510
00:39:17.280 --> 00:39:21.720
Thank you. Of course, of course.

511
00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:22.780
I

512
00:39:24.180 --> 00:39:29.700
need to remind myself of that often, you know, we're just, we're all, we're all going through it together.

513
00:39:29.700 --> 00:39:33.720
That's the strength of the community and part of what's so important about

514
00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:40.940
these groups and just being around other, other believers and other people who are going through the exact same things.

515
00:39:42.060 --> 00:39:43.740
And Lisa, I know that you,

516
00:39:45.300 --> 00:39:51.140
I know that you're about to face a huge move and that you're going for a full, full force and actually

517
00:39:52.120 --> 00:39:58.340
Ray and I are going to be doing the same. I'm not going to share all the details as of yet, because it's still not,

518
00:39:59.040 --> 00:39:59.980
still not complete.

519
00:40:01.720 --> 00:40:06.540
planned out and where I want it to be before we share everything, but we'll definitely

520
00:40:06.540 --> 00:40:07.160
share it.

521
00:40:07.560 --> 00:40:10.960
But we're going to be going through the same things and we're just trusting God that

522
00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:17.100
he's moving people right now, whether it's physically, whether it's emotionally, spiritually,

523
00:40:18.160 --> 00:40:22.400
circumstantially, he is moving people right now for such a time as this, like you mentioned,

524
00:40:22.500 --> 00:40:22.860
Angela.

525
00:40:22.860 --> 00:40:29.160
And that's, that's why I, I really want to stress that if you're already taking care

526
00:40:29.160 --> 00:40:31.800
of yourself, that's, that's amazing and important.

527
00:40:34.000 --> 00:40:40.480
But just to really, really understand that where health is coming, where health is concerned

528
00:40:40.680 --> 00:40:47.640
with this temple that we've been provided to really, really focus in on how we can maximize

529
00:40:47.640 --> 00:40:53.080
the energy within this temple, especially now for such a time as this.

530
00:40:53.240 --> 00:41:00.200
And that often means rest, doesn't necessarily mean, you know, working out and things like

531
00:41:00.200 --> 00:41:04.100
that, which is obviously super important and something that I need to get better at as

532
00:41:04.100 --> 00:41:04.240
well.

533
00:41:05.860 --> 00:41:13.160
But it also means spiritually and emotionally and taking a walk in nature, doing something

534
00:41:13.160 --> 00:41:13.760
for yourself.

535
00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:18.260
We've all, you know, heard those things over and over, but it's just, it's, it's time to

536
00:41:18.260 --> 00:41:18.600
do it.

537
00:41:18.600 --> 00:41:23.060
It's time to step it up and really, really do it and, and know that we need to keep this

538
00:41:23.380 --> 00:41:29.460
energy flowing and keep this energy high and, and high vibration, high energy, high vibration

539
00:41:29.460 --> 00:41:34.920
foods, just really, really be focusing in on taking care of ourselves for such a time

540
00:41:34.920 --> 00:41:38.820
as that, as this, and that goes with hormones too.

541
00:41:40.220 --> 00:41:47.400
Being women, our hormones are completely different than men's obviously, even though some people

542
00:41:47.400 --> 00:41:51.060
would disagree, they are, they are very, very different.

543
00:41:51.800 --> 00:41:59.460
And having those checks, having those really, really on point naturally, whether we have

544
00:41:59.460 --> 00:42:07.280
to do it naturally or with other ways, it's, it's ramping up, the enemy is ramping up,

545
00:42:08.080 --> 00:42:09.500
but so is God.

546
00:42:09.960 --> 00:42:18.720
And I want to be in peak physical and peak mental condition to, to be at the call when

547
00:42:18.720 --> 00:42:19.920
that battle call comes.

548
00:42:21.500 --> 00:42:25.320
And that means stepping away from alcohol.

549
00:42:25.660 --> 00:42:32.180
You know, I'm, I'm not, I am not, I do not believe that God necessarily cares whether

550
00:42:32.180 --> 00:42:33.580
you have a glass of wine or not.

551
00:42:33.580 --> 00:42:40.160
That's not what I mean, but really stepping away from it just so that this temple is

552
00:42:40.180 --> 00:42:46.340
refined, stepping away from sugar, stepping away, any, any vices that we have, everything

553
00:42:46.340 --> 00:42:46.980
in moderation.

554
00:42:46.980 --> 00:42:51.880
But if you have a vice that is, you feel is taking over your life and God is calling you

555
00:42:51.880 --> 00:42:58.180
to eliminate, that's, that's really what I've been working on and wanted to share.

556
00:42:58.180 --> 00:43:04.020
Now, coffee is still one that I'm having a trouble, having trouble walking away from

557
00:43:04.020 --> 00:43:09.600
because I know that's a huge vice for me, but I am really, really focusing back in on

558
00:43:09.600 --> 00:43:14.500
refining this temple to be the best mother, to be the best wife, to be the best business

559
00:43:14.500 --> 00:43:19.960
owner, to be the best coach, to be the best everything that I can be for such a time as

560
00:43:19.960 --> 00:43:20.280
this.

561
00:43:20.320 --> 00:43:24.700
And after everything that's happened with Charlie Kirk and, and all the things going

562
00:43:24.700 --> 00:43:32.160
on in the world, it's really a lesson of, wow, there's so much more that we can be

563
00:43:32.160 --> 00:43:36.920
doing, but it doesn't necessarily have to be from a platform.

564
00:43:36.920 --> 00:43:41.100
It doesn't necessarily have to be from a business perspective.

565
00:43:41.100 --> 00:43:43.660
It can be from at home, right?

566
00:43:43.660 --> 00:43:44.660
It can start at home.

567
00:43:44.660 --> 00:43:54.680
If everybody just started at home, if everybody just started with themselves and the people

568
00:43:54.680 --> 00:43:59.200
make everyone just really look at Christ followers and Christians differently.

569
00:44:00.700 --> 00:44:05.820
And I think that's where we get it wrong is we think we have to do these things to, you

570
00:44:05.880 --> 00:44:13.240
know, be a Charlie Kirk or to, to go out and do as many things as we can.

571
00:44:13.300 --> 00:44:19.580
And while some of us are called to that, many of us are called to, to go out and be the

572
00:44:19.580 --> 00:44:23.820
best that we can be with the people that we're put, put around with the people that are placed

573
00:44:23.820 --> 00:44:24.580
in our path.

574
00:44:25.580 --> 00:44:31.240
So I think that's why God's moving so many people, so many businesses, so many circumstances

575
00:44:31.240 --> 00:44:38.280
around because he's placing different people in our path that we can just show up powerfully

576
00:44:38.280 --> 00:44:44.080
and show up with that light and show up as that energetic force that, that isn't necessarily

577
00:44:44.080 --> 00:44:50.560
numb, but is, but is just joyful and complete with everything going on in the world.

578
00:44:51.300 --> 00:44:57.720
And that's what I've been focusing on the last couple of months is figuring out what

579
00:44:57.720 --> 00:44:58.900
my advices are.

580
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:06.760
doing my best with God's help, of course, to eliminate them and or at least put them

581
00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:12.560
into moderation so that I can be the best Jess that I can be for the people that are

582
00:45:12.560 --> 00:45:18.640
placed in my path so that I don't walk around feeling depleted because of the circumstances

583
00:45:18.640 --> 00:45:19.940
and the way of the world.

584
00:45:20.720 --> 00:45:27.100
I hope that that maybe has resonated with you guys or anybody watching the live stream

585
00:45:27.100 --> 00:45:32.040
but if anybody has some last minute thoughts or something they want to share around that

586
00:45:32.040 --> 00:45:34.900
or anything else, please, please feel free.

587
00:45:35.100 --> 00:45:41.360
I just felt like that was something on my heart and I'm asking you guys for help also,

588
00:45:41.660 --> 00:45:42.840
you know, to do that.

589
00:45:44.060 --> 00:45:51.820
Yeah, I have something, Jess, Angela, when you were talking about the, you know, so much

590
00:45:51.820 --> 00:45:55.700
of the word right and and out of the mouth, out of the heart, the mouth speaks.

591
00:45:55.700 --> 00:46:00.480
So, it's very clear to me what's really in there, what's been so deeply rooted in you.

592
00:46:00.540 --> 00:46:02.720
It can't help but naturally come out, right?

593
00:46:02.720 --> 00:46:06.120
And as I'm hearing you speak about standing on the word of God and standing on the promises

594
00:46:06.120 --> 00:46:09.800
of God, Holy Spirit said, it's Luke 1 45.

595
00:46:10.440 --> 00:46:15.520
It's blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her,

596
00:46:15.860 --> 00:46:16.420
right?

597
00:46:16.420 --> 00:46:21.660
That we know he has promises to fulfill and we're blessed when we believe he will.

598
00:46:21.660 --> 00:46:26.940
And I don't know if that's helpful to you, but he was nudging me to share that.

599
00:46:27.040 --> 00:46:28.980
He just recalled to me Luke 1 45.

600
00:46:29.260 --> 00:46:29.540
Oh, yeah.

601
00:46:29.540 --> 00:46:30.020
Oh, yeah.

602
00:46:30.300 --> 00:46:30.480
Blessed.

603
00:46:30.880 --> 00:46:33.860
Blessed are we when we believe that you're going to fulfill those promises because the

604
00:46:33.860 --> 00:46:36.180
subtext there is that he has them to fulfill.

605
00:46:36.740 --> 00:46:37.980
We're blessed when we believe he will.

606
00:46:38.820 --> 00:46:44.680
And so, when you've been called and exhausted and feeling even spiritually numb, which is

607
00:46:44.680 --> 00:46:48.480
something I can relate to as well, I don't think there's any surprise that he's calling

608
00:46:48.480 --> 00:46:52.980
you to this place and saying, be still, be still and know that I am God just mentioned

609
00:46:52.980 --> 00:46:53.800
rest as well.

610
00:46:53.840 --> 00:46:54.020
Right.

611
00:46:54.020 --> 00:46:57.660
We know that rest is not found in a destination or a spot treatment.

612
00:46:57.700 --> 00:47:02.960
Rest is found in getting close to Christ, which maybe he's just making room for you

613
00:47:02.960 --> 00:47:03.400
to do that.

614
00:47:03.580 --> 00:47:08.980
Maybe it's been such a desperate ploy to hang on and fight for all of these things where

615
00:47:08.980 --> 00:47:10.560
he's kind of going, let it go.

616
00:47:10.600 --> 00:47:11.440
I've always had you.

617
00:47:11.600 --> 00:47:12.040
I always will.

618
00:47:12.040 --> 00:47:13.420
Just get close with me.

619
00:47:13.420 --> 00:47:15.160
Just rest in my presence.

620
00:47:15.260 --> 00:47:15.620
Right.

621
00:47:16.160 --> 00:47:18.020
So that's just kind of what came up for me.

622
00:47:18.020 --> 00:47:22.620
And it's a good reminder for me, too, because I, in the last six weeks, have experienced

623
00:47:22.620 --> 00:47:24.860
more warfare, I think, than I ever have.

624
00:47:25.980 --> 00:47:27.880
So just heavy, heavy stuff.

625
00:47:28.060 --> 00:47:29.960
And so I thought, oh, Luke 145.

626
00:47:30.060 --> 00:47:32.040
I think that's for me, too.

627
00:47:33.380 --> 00:47:33.560
Amen.

628
00:47:33.960 --> 00:47:34.220
Amen.

629
00:47:34.240 --> 00:47:35.780
I think the enemy is desperate.

630
00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:43.680
He's trying to hit on every side, you know, and we just need to know that we're fighting

631
00:47:43.680 --> 00:47:46.560
in victory, that this life is but a vapor.

632
00:47:47.360 --> 00:48:00.020
And as Paul said, he counts it, everything in this world, D-U-N-G, compared to that of

633
00:48:00.020 --> 00:48:00.800
knowing Jesus.

634
00:48:01.120 --> 00:48:08.400
You know, anything that we could have around us is really nothing in comparison to Jesus.

635
00:48:09.060 --> 00:48:13.860
And so just, you know, keeping that in perspective.

636
00:48:13.860 --> 00:48:18.780
And I said to somebody, I said, you know, Paul said, you know, it would be far greater

637
00:48:18.780 --> 00:48:20.800
for me to go on and be with the Lord.

638
00:48:21.000 --> 00:48:23.280
And they're like, you don't need to leave quite yet.

639
00:48:23.280 --> 00:48:24.680
I'm like, oh, I'm not saying that.

640
00:48:25.060 --> 00:48:29.860
But, you know, to realize that, you know, once we go to heaven, we're not going to,

641
00:48:30.020 --> 00:48:33.800
we're going to realize like, wow, we're not going to look back.

642
00:48:36.040 --> 00:48:38.180
So we are fighting in victory.

643
00:48:39.180 --> 00:48:45.600
But while we're here on earth, the one thing I have gotten excited about is this new company

644
00:48:45.820 --> 00:48:50.940
that it's I feel like it's the most amazing biohack ever, because it's you're actually

645
00:48:51.700 --> 00:49:00.300
drinking a postbiotic that's immediately going to your 14 quadrillion mitochondria and activating

646
00:49:00.300 --> 00:49:07.900
them, which they're the powerhouse of our 37 trillion cells and giving us the natural

647
00:49:07.900 --> 00:49:14.740
energy that we need to do whatever it is that God would have us to do.

648
00:49:15.220 --> 00:49:20.960
And so I had my mitochondria tested the other day and the woman said, wow, you must not

649
00:49:20.960 --> 00:49:22.660
have had anything going on this year.

650
00:49:24.540 --> 00:49:25.700
And I said, why do you say that?

651
00:49:25.700 --> 00:49:28.340
She said, well, stress really affects the mitochondria.

652
00:49:28.340 --> 00:49:37.280
And I feel like it's a testimony to the products that I'm passionate about.

653
00:49:37.320 --> 00:49:39.500
And I feel like God is placed in my path.

654
00:49:39.620 --> 00:49:42.360
So I do I do feel like.

655
00:49:43.000 --> 00:49:50.060
I'm on the right path with this new company that I, you know, that fell into my lap in

656
00:49:50.320 --> 00:49:58.320
January, so I'm an outsider, it's very clear, but from your perspective and what, you

657
00:49:58.320 --> 00:49:59.900
know, everything that's come up for you.

658
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:05.780
last year and really, I mean, from an outsider, it's very clear that God is shifting things

659
00:50:05.780 --> 00:50:14.540
so that you can focus on different avenues that really matter, right, that really bring

660
00:50:14.540 --> 00:50:21.160
you joy, that really rise up your creativity and how you minister and the people that are

661
00:50:21.160 --> 00:50:22.300
coming into your life.

662
00:50:22.380 --> 00:50:25.000
Like from an outside perspective, it's very clear.

663
00:50:25.640 --> 00:50:29.180
Once and it's always clear to someone who's not in it, right?

664
00:50:29.180 --> 00:50:34.820
It's like when you're in, if someone's in a physically abusive relationship, it's always

665
00:50:34.820 --> 00:50:40.620
so clear to the outsiders that, oh my gosh, this person needs to leave or something needs

666
00:50:40.620 --> 00:50:41.180
to change here.

667
00:50:41.180 --> 00:50:42.260
Like this is not okay.

668
00:50:42.340 --> 00:50:46.120
But then the person in it, they can't see it, right?

669
00:50:46.120 --> 00:50:49.780
They can't see it because they keep getting drawn back in, whether it's comfortability

670
00:50:50.960 --> 00:50:55.280
or psychologically, all the things, the memories, everything.

671
00:50:56.820 --> 00:51:05.820
So it's very clear that you're being maneuvered into something fresh that feels fresh, that

672
00:51:05.820 --> 00:51:12.980
renews and restores your energy and your passion and your excitement, not only business wise,

673
00:51:13.000 --> 00:51:15.480
but also personally, right, with your family.

674
00:51:15.560 --> 00:51:16.600
It's just so clear.

675
00:51:17.000 --> 00:51:21.300
But when you can see it with, because you're the one going through it and all the emotions

676
00:51:21.300 --> 00:51:27.520
and all the feelings and all the hardships, when you can finally step into that, that's

677
00:51:27.520 --> 00:51:30.980
when it just, I really feel like God is going to release the flow.

678
00:51:33.160 --> 00:51:33.180
Amen.

679
00:51:34.400 --> 00:51:37.520
Has anybody ever done pod match?

680
00:51:39.800 --> 00:51:40.340
Pod match?

681
00:51:41.760 --> 00:51:42.000
No.

682
00:51:42.420 --> 00:51:42.800
No.

683
00:51:42.800 --> 00:51:49.700
So someone just told me, so I feel like I want to be the voice of the postbiotic movement

684
00:51:49.700 --> 00:51:54.580
here in the U.S. because the only reason someone is taking a probiotic instead of a

685
00:51:54.600 --> 00:51:58.900
postbiotic is because marketing has not caught up with science.

686
00:51:59.080 --> 00:52:04.760
And so they told me to go to pod match and I've been filling it out, but it basically

687
00:52:05.200 --> 00:52:09.300
matches who you are with the different podcasts out there.

688
00:52:09.820 --> 00:52:13.700
And I just wondered if anyone here had ever done that.

689
00:52:14.460 --> 00:52:15.580
Oh, I will though.

690
00:52:15.580 --> 00:52:15.940
Yeah.

691
00:52:16.500 --> 00:52:20.280
So they said it was free, but I don't see the free part.

692
00:52:20.440 --> 00:52:29.280
It's like $30 a month that I thought I would try it for just to see because, yeah.

693
00:52:31.280 --> 00:52:35.720
So it's going to be interesting because, you know, obviously you fill out your profile

694
00:52:35.720 --> 00:52:40.600
and then they match you with who's health and wellness and who's, you know, spiritual

695
00:52:40.600 --> 00:52:42.960
health and wellness and all kinds of things.

696
00:52:43.820 --> 00:52:46.020
So pod match dot com.

697
00:52:47.680 --> 00:52:47.960
Thank you.

698
00:52:48.220 --> 00:52:48.520
Yeah.

699
00:52:48.520 --> 00:52:49.960
I'll definitely go check that out.

700
00:52:50.480 --> 00:52:55.560
Well, don't have any experience with it yet, just but the gal highly recommended it.

701
00:52:55.800 --> 00:52:56.680
So yeah.

702
00:52:56.720 --> 00:52:57.240
Yeah.

703
00:52:57.240 --> 00:53:04.460
Well, I have a question for you all before we before we end here, and that is, has anyone

704
00:53:04.980 --> 00:53:12.220
recently it doesn't it doesn't have to be recently, but has anybody decided to give

705
00:53:12.220 --> 00:53:12.680
something up?

706
00:53:12.860 --> 00:53:17.260
You knew God was calling you to give something up or to put something aside, whether it's

707
00:53:17.260 --> 00:53:26.740
a vice or a project or something, and you did it and things opened up for you.

708
00:53:28.440 --> 00:53:30.540
Not recently, but yes.

709
00:53:32.000 --> 00:53:33.860
OK, can you share that for me?

710
00:53:34.520 --> 00:53:37.100
It was it was part of my own health and wellness journey.

711
00:53:37.100 --> 00:53:44.020
So I remember sharing this with Tyler actually at the event last year where I had always

712
00:53:44.020 --> 00:53:47.860
struggled with my weight, didn't really get why I kept saying to the Lord, like, I don't

713
00:53:47.860 --> 00:53:48.320
get it.

714
00:53:48.380 --> 00:53:52.860
Like, if this is if I say this is so important to me and I want this dealt with and corrected

715
00:53:52.860 --> 00:53:56.200
more than anything else, what is in the way of like making this happen?

716
00:53:56.460 --> 00:54:01.160
And so I started chasing the path of going down, really exploring what self-control meant

717
00:54:01.160 --> 00:54:06.640
as like a fruit of the spirit and just pressing into that, not counting calories, not really

718
00:54:06.640 --> 00:54:09.580
trying other than to just practice what that looks like.

719
00:54:10.060 --> 00:54:14.280
And then before I knew it, I literally dropped like thirty pounds before I even realized

720
00:54:14.280 --> 00:54:15.740
I just knew my clothes were getting looser.

721
00:54:16.680 --> 00:54:17.080
Wow.

722
00:54:17.640 --> 00:54:18.540
It wasn't hard.

723
00:54:18.660 --> 00:54:19.380
It wasn't hard at all.

724
00:54:19.420 --> 00:54:20.240
I mean, it was slow.

725
00:54:20.740 --> 00:54:25.380
But now I think I'm down forty five and it was just the Holy Spirit ministering to me

726
00:54:25.680 --> 00:54:29.800
about just just try this, just just chase me, just practice this, just look at the fruit

727
00:54:29.800 --> 00:54:30.220
of the spirit.

728
00:54:31.140 --> 00:54:35.420
So that was an example of like nothing in my own strength, but just going, OK, Lord,

729
00:54:35.420 --> 00:54:38.040
I need to get involved here and show me what that looks like.

730
00:54:38.500 --> 00:54:41.780
And you look absolutely beautiful, by the way, and you look fantastic.

731
00:54:42.680 --> 00:54:42.680


732
00:54:43.220 --> 00:54:45.520
And I love that you said it wasn't hard.

733
00:54:46.100 --> 00:54:46.380
No.

734
00:54:46.920 --> 00:54:52.240
Because that and that's something that as you go through the brilliance conference and

735
00:54:52.240 --> 00:54:57.160
learn more about Graham's teachings, he talks about that, how, you know, we have this we

736
00:54:57.160 --> 00:54:59.920
have this ideal of or this idea that.

737
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:06.560
It has to be hard like that. We're just gonna grind through something, you know that God said I have to stop this

738
00:55:06.560 --> 00:55:08.360
So it has to be you know

739
00:55:08.580 --> 00:55:15.640
So terribly suffering and all these things that we we make it but at the end of the day if you just

740
00:55:16.300 --> 00:55:18.400
Stay in step with the spirit

741
00:55:19.100 --> 00:55:26.460
Oftentimes, it's actually it's a you love doing it. You love the process. You love doing it because you're staying in step with the spirit

742
00:55:27.180 --> 00:55:33.420
So it doesn't mean that it's necessarily easy, but it doesn't have to be a suffering type of

743
00:55:34.600 --> 00:55:40.220
Process. So thank you for sharing that and I needed to hear that today, too

744
00:55:41.740 --> 00:55:42.280
Especially

745
00:55:44.640 --> 00:55:49.220
Yeah, so this this was I think four years ago, so I

746
00:55:50.880 --> 00:55:55.860
Wouldn't so I don't you know God turned Jesus turned water into wine, right?

747
00:55:56.840 --> 00:56:03.200
Our pastor, I think it was four years ago. He said if you really want the the

748
00:56:03.960 --> 00:56:08.780
the fruit of the the Holy Spirit give up the spirit of the world and

749
00:56:10.580 --> 00:56:13.780
My family as challenges with alcoholism

750
00:56:13.780 --> 00:56:17.700
I think probably my all my brothers have challenges and

751
00:56:17.920 --> 00:56:25.200
We had to do a wellness check on my nephew just last week because he wasn't showing up for work and they feared for his life

752
00:56:25.200 --> 00:56:27.000
no, and

753
00:56:27.000 --> 00:56:29.440
So about four years ago. I just decided

754
00:56:30.040 --> 00:56:37.140
so I would have maybe a glass of wine once a month or I was wasn't anything big but and I would go home and

755
00:56:37.140 --> 00:56:43.100
I would hold a beer just because I didn't want my family to make you know, give me grief or not

756
00:56:43.160 --> 00:56:45.880
but four years ago, I just said I'm done with that and so

757
00:56:47.680 --> 00:56:48.800
Yeah, I

758
00:56:49.040 --> 00:56:50.160
just desire

759
00:56:50.660 --> 00:56:57.380
You desire more of God and not of the world and I mean if you drive by if you drive by the liquor store

760
00:56:57.380 --> 00:57:01.620
It says wine beer and spirits, you know, and you know, that's not the good kind of spirit

761
00:57:02.120 --> 00:57:04.880
Yeah, I want to be honest. And so

762
00:57:07.060 --> 00:57:08.240
So, yeah

763
00:57:08.860 --> 00:57:12.720
And it's been it was interesting when I first started to do that

764
00:57:12.720 --> 00:57:17.640
I would get so much persecution for not just having one drink a different

765
00:57:17.640 --> 00:57:25.180
I mean, it's interesting how wrapped up some people will get because you won't have just even one drink with them

766
00:57:25.340 --> 00:57:31.700
But I never was there to make anybody feel bad. I was just you know, and so

767
00:57:33.060 --> 00:57:35.260
So, yeah, I've

768
00:57:36.140 --> 00:57:43.120
I'm glad I've taken that stand and I it's it's spoken to my family then too, which has been you know, and

769
00:57:44.100 --> 00:57:44.940
it was

770
00:57:44.940 --> 00:57:49.940
Difficult at first they would you know hand me I'm like, I'm not I don't I don't want that

771
00:57:49.940 --> 00:57:54.480
you know, I wouldn't make it sound like make them feel like, you know, whatever but

772
00:57:56.140 --> 00:57:58.140
But yeah, so

773
00:57:59.160 --> 00:58:00.880
Now my family are realizing

774
00:58:03.160 --> 00:58:04.920
A lot of things so

775
00:58:05.240 --> 00:58:06.160
only Jesus

776
00:58:06.940 --> 00:58:10.260
yeah, yeah, I know that's powerful and beautiful and I

777
00:58:11.340 --> 00:58:16.380
Appreciate you sharing that and it's something, you know, my family their whole they grew up on

778
00:58:17.380 --> 00:58:21.860
just that was the whole get-together of the family was drinking and

779
00:58:22.160 --> 00:58:29.980
Partying and that's what our family culture is. I mean, we're Italian, you know, so and again, I'm not against that at all

780
00:58:29.980 --> 00:58:34.380
I think you know, there's a time and a place for it and I think it's it can be beautiful too. But

781
00:58:35.220 --> 00:58:36.820
You know just like what you shared

782
00:58:36.820 --> 00:58:43.400
it's not like it lets the good spirits in and I I met a pastor who a woman pastor and she

783
00:58:44.480 --> 00:58:50.900
She was saying that she you know, she gave it up and I said how long have you been alcohol-free and she said well

784
00:58:50.900 --> 00:58:55.100
I'm you know, I'm alcohol-free today and I have been for about 10 years

785
00:58:55.100 --> 00:59:00.240
But tomorrow if I want a glass, I'm gonna have one, you know, she just stays in step with the spirit

786
00:59:00.240 --> 00:59:05.680
It's not a I have to do this to prove something or or whatever. It's just

787
00:59:06.560 --> 00:59:13.080
Stay in step with the spirit and and if today, you know, he says yeah, go ahead have a glass of wine

788
00:59:13.080 --> 00:59:18.160
I'm gonna have a glass of wine, but I haven't for 10 years and that was her answer and I love that

789
00:59:18.160 --> 00:59:20.720
You know because it was just it came from such a non-judgmental

790
00:59:22.060 --> 00:59:22.580
totally

791
00:59:23.300 --> 00:59:30.020
Free it was just such a freedom to hear that and like you shared Rebecca, you know, it's just it wasn't hard

792
00:59:30.020 --> 00:59:33.040
It's just okay today. What are we doing Lord? What are we doing today?

793
00:59:34.020 --> 00:59:37.940
You know, so I love that. Thank you for sharing. I appreciate it

794
00:59:40.600 --> 00:59:46.320
Well, Lisa any last words you've been quiet for a while I

795
00:59:46.360 --> 00:59:51.880
I've got one thing. I have a question for all y'all as they say in Texas

796
00:59:52.500 --> 00:59:55.460
Do you know of any holistic?

797
00:59:56.640 --> 00:59:56.640


798
00:59:57.520 --> 00:59:59.980
That's good at balancing hormones

799
01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:12.940
I can find out please. Yeah, I can find out for sure. I've been using my my I love the

800
01:00:12.940 --> 01:00:18.980
lady in Texas but she's it's not her niche and I've spent thousands of dollars and I'm

801
01:00:18.980 --> 01:00:24.620
like finally about two months ago I went off everything I stopped everything and did my

802
01:00:24.620 --> 01:00:31.400
research and I've been taking some supplements and it's okay but I'm I have no testosterone so
