Speaker 1 (00:00):
What's up? What's up everyone? I hope you all are amazing.
I am so sorry to inform you, but we've experienced
some technical difficulties this week and we're unable to record
a fresh new episode. I guess you could call that
our Shady Moment of the week. But in the meantime,
enjoy this replay of one of our favorite Reasonably Shady
episodes and we'll see you next week.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Okay, Banye, welcome to another episode of Reasonably Shady. My
name is Jaselle Bryant.

What's up? What's up everyone? I'm Robin Dixon. Thank you,
thank you, thank you once again for joining us. We
love you so much for loving us.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yes we do. We're so happy to be back once again,
and just like usual, we have our reasonably Shady Moment
of the week. And guys, it is a doozy for me. Okay. So,
a couple of weeks ago, we had a dietitian I
(01:12):
believe that was we were talking to her name is
her name?
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Er?
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Yeah? So she said she's a trainer training a trainer.
But yes, we were talking about nutrition one.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yes, and she said that asparacus is great to eat. Okay,
it helps you lose weight. It tastes good. Just put
in an oven like for like fifteen twenty minutes and
roast it up, and you're gonna be like feeling like
a million bucks. And I was like, you know what,
I was sick of Kale because I've been a Kale
girl for like ten years. Okay, Kale, I'm done with you. Broccoli,
I'm done with you too, because Brocoli, you give me gas. Okay, Okay.
(01:42):
So some Carly, our director of operations, she said, but hell,
you know that Asparicus makes your peasting, okay, And I.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Can't believe you didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Well I did know that, but to what degree I
did not know? So I went out of town with
my kids last weekend and there was a whole lot
that went down with the with our room that I had.
I had booked a Sweet. I'm in Tallahassee, by the way,
I have booked a Sweet, but this hotel I don't
know guests through that reservation in trash Can. So we
ended up in like this little small room.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Okay, but whatever, We're only there for that moment.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
But okay, yeah, maybe maybe another episode that would be
my shady moment. So I went to go pete and
my kids were like, ma, you have funked up the
whole room. Were you farting? What did you doing there?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And I was like, oh my god, my peace. Stanks,
I mean like stanks, thanks, like horribly stinks. So long
story short, asparagus, you are shaky.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
You are shady. Okay, you're shady. So are you no
longer eating it now?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
So this is the deal, guys, I actually really love it,
So I'm gonna eat it, but not as much as before.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Okay, or just eat it when you're like when you
know you're not going to be peeing around other people? Right?
Speaker 2 (02:55):
When does that happened? Like I'm you're at home, like,
eat it for dinner and you go to pee. You're
using your own pre That's true. That's true, very true.
So if I'm if this, but this would make any
guy run away from me.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
So if if there's any dayting going on, then asparagus.
I cannot eat asparacase you're shady. I want everybody to
be clear on that. But I don't want anyone to
like not eat asparagus because it's really good for you.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I know exactly. So you know, just if you're if
you're around a guy or whatever, just give them the disclaimer.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Oh okay, my peace.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Thanks, yes, because I'm being healthy, because.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I'm being okay. Okay, I didn't fart, I didn't go
number two. Right, it's just my pee. Yeah, okay, got.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
It because of.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Right, Yes, that's it. Okay, that's it. Now do you
have a shady moment?
Speaker 1 (03:40):
I mean I just have a frustrating moment.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
So you know, we moved in a new house. The
first thing my kids want is a basketball court. Not
just my kids, but my husband want to So it's
like we have to have a basketball court. And I
was ready to like put this basketball court in Okay,
and something told me this was literally yesterday something and
we're schedule. Actually they're out there doing the court now.
Something told me, why don't you talk to the builder
(04:07):
to make sure, like, you know, there's no issues with
putting this basketball court in Okay?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Okay, I did.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Long story short. I mean it's actually like, you know,
a little silver lining if we if I had gone
with my original plan, yeah, I would have been in
trouble with the county. No, I would have been like
building the court on on in an area for like
a utility easement, a ten foot utility easement. So I
had to reduce the size of our basketball court by
(04:34):
ten feet.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
So is it a half court?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
It was always a half court, but it was literally
going to be like a quarter court, a whole half
court that would allow them allow them to like shoot
three pointers from every spot on the court, from the corners,
from the top, the wings, whatever. Now we have to
reduce it by ten feet, so they can't get their
corner three point shots.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
So they just did just have a file line. They
shooting from the fire.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
So they're shooting from like what kind of corners? Talking
about it's still in this this thing. And I have
to hear my son, Corey, well, why why can't we
do this? And why why why I and just do
it and Bubba and I'm like no, because if so,
I'm like wan, I mean not want Corey. If someone
from the county comes back here and sees that this
court is on top of this easement, right supposed to
(05:19):
be here, like they can literally find me, yes and
tell us to dig it up. Yes, It's like, well
so what just paid a fine? And I'm like, boy,
get it, boy, exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
He needs to get it, little boy.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
So our dreams of having this amazing full half court
basketball court have been shacked.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Well clearly, Robbing, you're part of the wrong family, and
we're gonna talk to the right family today as it
relates to basketball. Okay, we have a guest with us
and her name is we'll let you introduce her, Robin.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Okay, So our guest today is none other than the
beautiful Sadel Curry Lee. A lot of you might know
Saddel because she belongs to a very prestigious basketball family. Yep. Okay.
Her father is Del Curry. He played sixteen years in
the league. Her brother is the amazing Stephan Curry. Her
(06:17):
other brother who plays for the Golden State Warriors. Her younger, well,
I guess middle brother is Steph Curry, who plays for
the seventy six ers. Okay. She is also married to
Damien Lee, who plays for the Golden State Warriors. I
mean I thought she, I thought I had basketball all
around me. But so anyway, but we're talking to Saddel
(06:37):
not only because she's you know, amazing and beautiful, because
she's a beautiful content creator. She also has a podcast,
but her her focus is mental health. So I'm gonna
read her bio and introduce her and the mental health
before I talk about Sadel. The mental health topic that
we've recently discussed got such a positive response. I mean,
(07:01):
I saw emails where people said, I just made an
appointment because of you all. So people are making appointments
to talk to mental health professionals because of the of
the episode that we did with Mirja, and you know,
people who said thank you. I was in a really
dark place. My cousin told me it was the best
one yet. So yes, you know, when your family's given
(07:23):
out compliments and then I'll do that. Those don't come
very easily. So anyway, but said though Sadel Curry Lee
became known in the digital space for entrepreneurship, athleticism, and
taste making in the beauty community, her mission online has
always been to surface the topic of mental health to
the forefront of conversation. Having struggled with her own mental
(07:47):
health for several years, Saddell aims to destigmatize the discussion
around mental health and offer firsthand advice on how we
can all discuss the subject better, as well as things
we can do to improve our mental health. Because life
that's the name of Her podcast, centers around an open
and honest discussion amongst Saddel, a mental health professional and
(08:08):
listener input regarding topics ranging from confronting anxieties to being
a supportive ally when someone close to you is struggling
with their mental health. So Saddell also recently shared her
journey with IVF he her struggles getting pregnant and she
she is pregnant with child. About you burst, So.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
We don't this podcast gonna be fast because she might
burst into love it.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
With, you know, without further ado, Welcome to Reasonably Shady Sidel. Welcome, Welcome.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
We're so happy to.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Have you cracking up. Oh my god, I just want
to say that just all, you already got the communication
down of the relationship, just offhand. And if you're gonna
go into the ladyship talking about I had hysteragus, I'm sorry.
That's great communication.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Or is it team too much?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
No, I've never seen too much.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
You're set in the standard like, look, dude, yes, get
real comfortable with me because I'm about to.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Share everything because my peace.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Thanks right, And if you're not comfortable with that, then
you can go yes, yes, I love it now.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
I have a quick first top top of the episode question,
So your your podcast because life one? How long have
you been doing it? And why the title? I love it?
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Thank you. So we just started in May. Our first
episode was May nineteenth, twenty twenty one, and when comes.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Up, I'm sorry, that's around the same time we start.
So we are podcast movies.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Yes, thank you for thinking it. Yes, And when I
was trying to figure out a name or a title
for it, because I want mental health to be just
like a normal thing. And I think because life just
shows that should happen like stuff happens in life, and
it's gonna thro you curve balls, and so it should
not be a thing where everyone should be isolated or
(10:06):
just surprised by it because life is hard and what
that brings mental health challenges. I feel like everyone has
been to health challenges, whether on a high level or
a low level. You're going to go through something in
your life that's going to bring you anxiety or some
sort of like tension that's hard to deal with. So
that's kind of where because life comes from, let's make
it normal.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yes, Yes, I love that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
And in the church world, I used to be a
first lady. They would call that you'll test and then it's.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
So everybody has a test at some point in time
in their life. And then they got that a good
old testimony, my testimony. I got so many testimonies to you,
you don't even want to get me started.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So, Siddel, you have shared that, like you recently had
some mental health struggles. How was that? How was it
to be able to share that? Because I think sometimes
when you come from a family like yours, where everyone
sees the glitz and the glamour and these success and
the accomplishments, you know, sometimes you kind of feel like
(11:10):
you don't want to share that type of information because
people assume your life is perfect or you know, gosh,
what could be wrong with you? Or you know, why
are you struggling? So how did you get to the
point where you felt like you could share your mental
health struggles, especially with you know, the spotlight on your
whole family.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Yeah, So to give you just a quick background on
how my mental health challenges started. I was in a
very abusive relationship from the end of my college I
mean high school years to the first two years of college,
and so that break brought us own set of like PTSD,
and then I also have five concussions from playing volleyball,
(11:50):
So so that I talk about that because a lot
of people think that mental health challenges just come from
life experiences, which they do, but it also come from
chemical imbalances, getting hit in the head five times like
so many other things. Then just what's happening in your
environment and how much money do you have and how
(12:12):
much do you have like all of these kind of
materialistic things that matter, but you know, there are other
things that play into the mental health space. And so
when I decided to talk about it, it was really
because there was a lack of people with the platform
talking about it at that time, and I was going
through it like I just was just really going through
(12:35):
it as a transitional point in my life, going from
college into like the real world, career world and how
to do it Earlier than I thought because I had
gotten my fifth concussion and my doctors were like, Tode,
you're going to be a vegetable if you keep playing
like you need.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Okay, So wait a minute, is that normal in the
volleyball world?
Speaker 3 (12:53):
No? Okay, And that's why I kept playing, because after
my third one, my doctors were like, what's the likely
hood of you getting a fourth one? Usually, like in football,
they'll cut you off at well, they're supposed to cut
you off at three concussions, okay. So after I got
my third when they were like, what's the likelihood of
you getting a fourth one? And then my fourth one came,
what's the likelihood of you getting a fifth one?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Okay? So I was like, the ball hitting you in
the head.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Yeah, So I played against I played D one college volleyball.
So I was playing against like some big, like strong girls,
and if you don't get your hands up fast enough,
the ball is just gonna the ball has no forgiveness.
It's going to come right into your face. So four
of the concussions were me getting hit in the head
(13:39):
down the line, and then one of them I went
to dig a ball and my head hit the ground
first before the rest of my body did.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I think that's just my reflexes were with every hit
in the head, my reflexes was just getting worse and
worse and worse.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
So I have like, that's crazy. I've never really heard
of concussions in volleyball. But makes sense, like I explained,
it definitely makes sense. Yeah, you know, we need to
bring light to that topic.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Yeah, exactly. I mean it's becoming more of a topic now.
I think my niece had a soccer game a couple
of weeks ago and she had got him hit in
the head with the ball and she got she got
put on concussion protocol and I was like, you know what,
I'm not mad about that, Like she's nine, Yes, how
hard are they kicking the ball in soccer right now?
And not at the nine year old league? But they
were taking it very seriously, which I'm so happy to
(14:28):
see because I wish that I would have taken it seriously.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
But you know, soccer is like the number one concussion. Like,
you know, people think it's all football, football, football, but
from what I've heard, it's actually the doctors see more
concussions from soccer.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Why because you hit your head with the ball.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I guess you hit each other's head. I don't know. I
don't play. They don't have much too much running for me, okay, okay, okay,
So yeah, I mean going into that season of life,
that traditional phase of life, I had had a platform
people following me because of my family, but I really
wasn't doing anything with it. And so we live in
(15:04):
we live in a digital age. I was on Instagram
all the time, like for people to relate to, and
I couldn't find anyone with the platform who was really
talking about how like life can really be. And I
was nervous because obviously you get the you get the
pushback like you're in this amazing family, there should there
should be nothing wrong with you. And that was hard.
(15:25):
But I think my purpose in life I've always had
a passion for like mental health and psychology, even before
I started dealing with my own challenges. But I always
my mom always said when you find your purpose, you
need to go for it and like never lose sight
of it. And I feel like my purpose in life
is to share my experiences, however uncomfortable and may make
(15:45):
other people feel.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
So Yeah, speaking of your mom, I look at her
and I'm like, that's a.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Bad one, right she is? She loved ye.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
And look, let me tell you. I think that I
should the story with you. How this was like, Gosh,
in two thousand probably three, someone I was out of
Pittsburgh Georgetown game because my brother in law played for Pittsburgh. Okay,
and this young white dude he was like you know,
a student at Georgetown or something was like, are you
Steph Curry's mother?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
And I'm like, yeah, I can see it.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I can see it.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
So I mean, but I was literally like twenty something
at that time. Yeah, And so in a way I
was like super flattered because your mom is so gorgeous.
But then I was like, do I look old enough
to be Steph Curry's mother?
Speaker 4 (16:35):
No?
Speaker 3 (16:35):
You know, my mom literally is like Benjamin Button. We
call her Benjamin Button. The older she gets, the younger, hid.
I don't even know how she does that. I just
hope that I have that genus.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Yeah, listen, that thing right there is a bad one.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Yeah, awesome.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Yes, Now I'm just gonna get right onto it. So
when the family goes to dinner at an expensive restaurant
and your brother Steph is there, I mean, is it
just assumed he's paying the bill?
Speaker 3 (17:10):
No, So We've always played a game in our family
where I I always take the bill at the end
of the watch, at the end of the day. No, no, no,
I take the actual you have it, I take it.
I said, give it to me and won't go around.
Especially once Seth got into the league and started making
some money. As well, they'll whoever's the closest a little
(17:31):
bit the grand scheme of things, right between my dad
and my brothers, who ever got the closest to the
bill didn't have to pay, but whoever was the furthest
away had to pay. So we would go around. You
have to go around and you make your guests on
how much.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
To guess on how much the bill is? Okay, and
yeah it get the closest okay, okay, So okay, because
I'm thinking, if if he's not there, then we just
order one meet. But if he's there, we order like the.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Old right order, we get the tasting menu.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
When when he's there, you don't hear any lip from
my dad. But with my dad, but it's just my
dad and he has to pay. You're gonna you can
get what you want, but just know that you're gonna
hear a little bit of Dan got it? Okay?
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Noted duly noted.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
That is funny. So speaking of your family, tell us
what was it like or has it been like growing
up Curry? So growing up you know with your dad
as an NBA legend, I mean he played for sixteen
years like that is a mate? Sixteen years is that
a record. Is that a record? No?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I think Ben's Vin's twenty right, Vince cars No, But
what about well Ship Lebron right now is about to
bust a record? How lousy Lebron is about almost?
Speaker 1 (18:47):
For thirteen fourteen? Okay, okay, let's two thousand and three
he went, he was in the year after Walma start.
Did he have Mellow go in at the same time?
I think, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
He's up there, he's past fifteen.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
He's a long time.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
It'll be a lot of people passing my dad. But
he did play for that, for his time, for his
for that time in the league, that was a long time. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
And let me tell you so Wan had Like when
he was thirty two, his knees just went bad. I
mean I think I think they're like arthritic, they're bone
on bone and he just couldn't play anymore. So for
these guys to be able to continue to play, and
you know, that pounding every day, like people don't realize that, Yeah,
it's not football, but like that pounding on that court,
(19:25):
that hard floor every day like that is that's major.
So for anyone that is playing longer than shit, seven years,
who on the body yeah, it's amazing. So I'm like, okay,
maybe you know they said what tom Brady is vegan, Like,
maybe there's something behind that.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Tom Brady is taking doing something else. Okay, now got.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Him on a regiment, special special plan.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's popping something. But back to your family. Yeah,
you know, your father playing in the league for a
long time, your brother, we all you know, both of
your brothers are super successful. But Steph is one of
the best players in the league. I mean my father,
like when Stuff was hurt last year, he was like
wanted to cry.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Because he's like he's like some thing to do.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, and Stuff has like changed the game totally.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Watch.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yeah. Yeah. So so what was it like being you know,
just the daughter in the family. Oh, and then you
have a daughter and the sister, a super uber successful
sister in law.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
So when we all get to in a minute.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
And you and you have a husband that plays in
the NBA. So what is it like for you, as
you know, do you just feel like I'm just sidel
or do you feel do.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
You get lost in it?
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Do you get lost in it?
Speaker 3 (20:44):
No, my parents did a really really good job at
giving us a normal lifestyle. Obviously, growing up as a daughter,
there wasn't social media. There wasn't like a lot of
you know, the stuff that they have now to make
people even more famous quote unquote. So I never really
felt different growing up as as a daughter of someone
(21:06):
of a guy in the NBA. But when Stephan went
to well had that big breakout at Davidson, I started
noticing like people were starting to treat me different, and
that made me a little bit uncomfortable. I never really
liked attention. I'm a very inept person. Yeah, I just don't.
I don't like it that much. And so when I
(21:28):
went to college and people would be like, oh, you
can come into this party because your stuff curry, sister,
I'd be a little mad, like, no, I don't want
to come to your party anymore.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Yeah yeah, or like stop telling people that you know,
like you don't even want people to know cis exactly.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
But you know what, more than anything, like I it's
been a really really cool experience because I don't like
the attention, but I love watching the people in my
life like elevate and like just break break records and
do things that people never thought that they be able
to do. Through things that I never thought that they
would be able to do or could do, and if
I'm shocked all the time. But I again, I feel
(22:08):
like I live a very I always say I'm an
ordinary girl who is an extraordinary or who experiences extraordinary things.
And I just feel really blessed because again, I could
go to the store or I could just do normal
things and not feel like I'm anything special, quote unquote,
just living a normal life, which would be a lot
(22:29):
for me, like with my mental health and all that
kind of stuff, Like if I had the same the
same kind of fame as stuff that. I think God
really did his thing and gave the correct talents to
one of us, because I would not be able to
handle all the all of the attention that he gets.
He just does so well with it. Even my dad
and Seth do really and Damien do really well with that.
(22:50):
I'd probably never leave my house if I had all
that attention. So yeah, I'm just like, I'm like the
biggest cheerleader. I love just the witness of all this.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Now, I was on the Instagram and I saw how
Steph and Aisha responded to you being pregnant, right, and
they went freaking bonkers. And I didn't get it, Like
I was like, why are you screaming yelling? Then going
crazy like okay, the sister's pregnant.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
I did not know your story, So I would love
for you to share a little bit of your story.
But before you share your story, cause you know, I
know you're married to your husband who's also on the
same team as your brother. Now, how did that go plan?
I want to know, like, did you see him and
you was like you talk? You said to your brother,
can you hook a sister up?
Speaker 1 (23:40):
What happened?
Speaker 3 (23:41):
I want to not go.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Ahead, excuse me, because I mean from I would think
your brother would be like, there's no way you're dating
an NBA player, Like, hell no, I'm not having it.
Find someone else, find a banker.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I did not want it. I always said growing up,
I would never date or marry a basketball player NBA player,
because I don't know how they are. And I know
that like the guys in my family are top notch
and they're like we called the unicorns, and I didn't
think that that was possible. But when I met I
(24:19):
met my husband way before he was even in the
league because we went to I went to Elon he
went to Drexel and so they're in the same conference.
So he was playing basketball in Drexel. But like, I
didn't know if he was any good. I didn't know anything.
Like he even transferred to Louisville and like hit me
in my d MS and I was like, who are you? Like,
(24:41):
what do you do? Like whatever? And so we met.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Because you were Steph Curry's sister. He was.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
He always tells me that he wasn't like ponning for me.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
I'm like, yes, he was doing he was you know,
he was trying to get in the curries. Okay, we understand.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I mean he succeeded. That's what.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
That.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
Does your brother feel about it? I mean, I'm sure
he's over it now. I mean you guys, are you know, happy.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Their best friend? Like their relationship is kind of sickening,
to be honest.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
I'm like, you're a little too close and you know
what i mean, Look, he better he better stay on
Steph steam because Steph can keep an eye on him.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yes, yes, I mean it's definitely.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Easier for me.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
May be like, excuse me, who are you talking? Who
is this woman you're talking to?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (25:38):
You know what's kind of annoying though about him being
on the team is that everyone thinks that Stephen literally
called up the GM of the Warriors like a, this
is my brother in law. But Damien was on the
team before we were even engaged. We were just dating,
and like the whole the whole nepotism thing. And then
I'm just like, do y'all not know how the NBA works?
Because they're not going to give away just money to
(26:01):
somebody because of who they're related to, Like they have
to actually be able to contribute something.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
I don't know, your brother's married to Doc Rivers's daughter.
I know, it's so very incest.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Yes, I realized that how he ends up on the
same team, I don't know, but.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
It no, I get it, like I love it. Keep
it in the family. You know, like good people when
you know them, And so I feel like, hey, if
if we already know the Curries are great people, so
if the Curries approve of you know, these the Damien,
then like he has to be an amazing person. And
within the NBA, it's not just about your talent, it's
(26:45):
it is almost equally about how good of a person
are you, How reliable are you?
Speaker 3 (26:49):
How?
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Yeah, I mean more and more of these days, like
it's more important to have people of character in your
organization than just people with talent.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
So right, okay, so so share with us. You are,
by the way, congratulations you getting ready to give? So
when is your du date? Can you share that?
Speaker 3 (27:05):
Or I'm November eighteen, five weeks today? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:09):
Oh my gosh, okay, so what well, because I'll give
you my brief because it's so weird. My kids asked
me this this morning. They were like, Mom, did you
have any trouble getting pregnant? And I was like, first
of all, why are y'all even thinking about that? Second
of all, I was I and I did so my
first child, Grace. You know, it took me like six
months or so. There was nothing that the doctors felt
(27:32):
like they needed to do. If it had gone longer,
then of course we would have done some different things,
but you know, it just took about six months. The
twins was like that, you know, pregnant?
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Was that a mistake?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
That's what the twins asked the whoopsies. They were like,
oh my gosh, were we mistakes? I'm like, first of all, y'all,
but like a whoopsie, No, it was not. It was
definitely played. So they asked that.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Soon because they're not even they are Grace and the
twins or how many.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
They're eighteen months apart. So I wanted them.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
To be you wanted to yourself, Well.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
No, I thought it was gonna be one more, but
it was too It was too Yeah, and I wanted
the one more and Grace to be grow up together
and do stuff together, but it was two more. So yes,
then I was torture. But anyway, enough about me. What
to give us, Like your story, because that's every woman
who's been pregnant, they have a story.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Oh yeah, yes, for sure. So Damie and I got
married in twenty eighteen, and like June of twenty eighteen,
we were like, let's kind of wait a year before
we start trying to have a baby. So I got
I got on birth control, and then we got married.
And then December of salesand eighteen came around and we
were like, eh, they spend enough time together, Like let's
(28:39):
let's start trying to have a baby. Let's get it on. Yeah,
And so we haven't tried about six months pretty much.
We have been trying her about six months. Nothing happened,
went to my doctor. She was like, oh, ye're young,
and just like keep trying and then if the year
comes by and nothing happens, and come back and we'll
do some tests. I got pregnant and in September twenty nineteen,
(29:02):
but it ended up being a chemical pregnancy, which really
really sucks. Basically, it is a chemical pregnancy. It's like
an early miscarriage. So I tested positive, and then because
I was trying to get pregnant, I would test every
day every day, and the positive just get lighter and
lighter and lighter until it went away.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
So it's like a early Is that a false positive?
Speaker 1 (29:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
No, No, the baby implants, but it doesn't stick long enough.
Oh okay, okay, oh wow, gotcha bible. So right, I
went back went back to my doctor. Six months later,
we got test done. Uh two weeks into or a
week into quarantine when the lockdown happened twenty twenty, we
(29:45):
get the call that we couldn't have kids naturally or
we had like a really really low chance of having
kids naturally.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
Uh issues with both of us kind of wow yeah,
which people were with because like we're so young. I
was twenty yes, twenty five at that time and he
was only twenty seven.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
So was the miscarriage related to the reasons why you
can't why they said you couldn't get pregnant.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
My miscarriages happened because I have a progesterone level or
a progesterone level issue after implantation, so my progesterones just
levels didn't stay high enough, Okay, okay, And so we
went into like right into fertility treatments. We tried three
months of IUIS, which is interuterine insemination, which basically is
(30:35):
a step up from natural. They'll put me on medications
and create more eggs and then they'll insert his like
they call it the good swimmers through a catheter. And
we tried those for three months, didn't work, took a
month off of October of twenty twenty, and then we
went into IVF in twenty twenty, twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
Okay, and that's like pretty rigorous, right, like you have to.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
Yes, yes, I did two weeks of three injections a
day in my stomach. And honestly, though, like this is
this is kind of like full circle right now, because
it was this time last year is when I started
watching the House Lives of Potomacs. So you guys, you guys,
I took a whole month off. I took a whole
(31:23):
month off of November to do my I v F
and just would sit down every day with my husband,
my mother in law, and we would watch Real House
Lives of Potomac. Every we watched this all seasons, every day.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Watched the whole week You get pregnant.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
You did did so, thank you, and then it's like
this literally, So anyways, we did our IVF cycle. We
got a good amount of embryos, which is as far
as they can be developed outside of my body. Went
through our first embryo transfer in February of twenty twenty one.
(32:04):
That didn't work. It just was a really devastating time.
So then we went into my next embria transfer, which
I had asked my doctor, like, can I go on
some progesterone because I felt like I think I had
another chemical pregnancy in the first embryo transfer. So that's
kind of where I found out. Went on progesterone for
the second one, and this one stuck and we are
(32:28):
thirty five weeks pregnant with that first baby. Boy.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Oh it's a boy. Oh Jesus Christ, girls.
Speaker 3 (32:38):
We have three girls already. We have that girls.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
That's true, three girls and some boy and one boy. Okay,
so now I get it. Now, I get why your
brother and your sister in law were super excited that
you are preggers, and so like your husband, I know,
he was just like through the roof.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
He was so excited. I actually got to surprise him
too with this pregnancy, because when you go through this
and there's doctors and timelines involved, like you know, every
single time I got to a doctor at this day
this time, so I had actually tested and found out
earlier than expected that I was pregnant, and so he
they were in the middle of season last year and
he was away for a road trip when I had
(33:22):
found out that I was pregnant. So I got to
surprise him when he came home. He had no idea
that I was pregnant, because again, we had a week
to go until I went to the doctor for my
blood test to see if it had worked. And that
was just like one of the best moments of my life,
because you know, I really wanted this to be as
(33:42):
normal of an experience as possible, and it hasn't been
that normal because of all the doctors and all my
legs and syrups and all that kinds of.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Oh my gosh, it was good. Like, how were you
able to even keep that from him?
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Like right few days? Oh my gosh, artist thing every
he was like, was I am I the last one
to know? Did you tell everyone except me? Like? No, no,
I only you told your mom, told my mom and
my sister in mom.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Okay, speaking of sister in law, let's get back to
this dinner that y'all play Russian Roulette with the bill.
So ah, yeah, first of all, does she lets you
cook with her? Because she's got this, you know, all
this cooking situations going on.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Is her food really good?
Speaker 3 (34:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:28):
That's it's getting there. We're not done with the question yet.
Hold on, hold time. Okay, when y'all have moments at
the because you know, any family will have some tense
moments at the table. Okay, nine times out of ten,
she starts it right, she.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Starts the draw.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
She's the jokesters, she tries to but does everyone understanding
her jokes? Okay, the jokes.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Really not funny, No, they're funny, but she has a
different type of humor and and you really have to
understand her to really like think it's funny. Sometimes you
look at her like I will laugh. You laugh at
her because she's she thinks she's hilarious and she is.
Her and Stefan just feed off of each other really cool.
(35:16):
So that's funny to watch. Even if you don't get
the joke, you know that they're in their own little world. Okay,
good for them. R No, she food's bombed. She if
you bomb really have y'all been to any of the
restaurants has.

MGM in Vegas.
Speaker 2 (35:47):

about to go back down there.
Speaker 3 (35:50):

Speaker 4 (36:18):
They don't like the Warriors, and it was they started
yelping her like before they started negative, negative, yelping her
at the fans out.
Speaker 3 (36:31):
Deep but some food so good? That is.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Now. How is your relationship with your sister in law?
You all, from what I can tell you all appear
to be really really close.
Speaker 3 (36:41):
Yeah no, I super blast. I was always really hard
on all my brother's girlfriends, as.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
You should be, because you know that holds out here
in the street.
Speaker 3 (36:53):
The DR's a lot.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Of women and it's a lot to it up to
because their mother is a bad one. And so if
like the girlfriend or the scallywag got a hole on
the side, I can't live up to the mama. It's
a problem.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
Yeah no. But with Ayisha, like, I was mean to
her for about two weeks okay, good, and I couldn't
be I couldn't be mean to her anymore. I was like,
I can't not like you, and we became like that.
I was her maid of honor in their wedding.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
Oh so yeah, special.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
I couldn't be with both my sister in laws are
amazing their sisters. I always wanted, Oh oh yeah, they
perfectly family.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
If you all have Thanksgiving dinner, I wouldn't mind being
invited one.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Day, or if y'all wanted, I could just like fit
in y'all be like, oh, there's cousin.
Speaker 3 (37:45):
Ron everyone does. Everyone does.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Or going to a restaurant because I just want to
go in order the whole menu because I know I'm
not paying, so I'm just gonna order, Okay, bring me
the lobster.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
And I don't know, you might you might have you
might have to guess on the on the on the
bill that.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
She makes money too.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
I'm not money. Let's get into your Instagram because it
is the pictures, the way it's laid out, like everything
about it. It's like clearly I look at it and
(38:25):
I'm like, okay, what professional is doing this? It's it's amazing,
So talk to us about like why you there's like
a style to it, is there?
Speaker 3 (38:37):
I mean I I don't try to fit any kind
of style. I think that I just try to be myself,
and it's it gets sometimes imposter syndrome, like I'm not
doing enough, I'm not good enough, because then I go
look at other people's pages and I'm like, wow, that's
so esthetically pleasing. Every every filter is perfect with the other.
(38:57):
But that's just not me. Like if I've been hours
editing a photo or thinking about, you know, what I'm
going to post, like, it doesn't feel genuine and authentic.
And I want everything that I do to feel genuine,
authentic because that's how I've gotten to this point. And
it's much harder to be someone else than it is
just to be me. And I don't have time, Like,
I just don't have time. It's exhausting. So but thank you.
(39:19):
I appreciate that. I know, I want people to look
at my Instagram and know that that's me, and it's
there's nothing fake about it. There's nothing you know, highlight
really like I like to be. I like to show
all the good and the bad of my life because
it's normal.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Yeah, I think you do an awesome job, and it's
it is definitely aesthetically pleasing, but without being you know,
it doesn't it does not look fake or forced. So
in in in the content creator world, that's really it's
it's people don't really realize how hard it is actually
to put out good content. Aesthetically pleasing content. Ye, so
(39:57):
you know, kudos to you for doing a great job.
You're welcome. Yes, Now, are you gonna have I'm sorry, okay,
go ahead, no, no, do you have I own to get
into this topic?
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Okay? Are you going to.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
You know, after your son is born?
Speaker 2 (40:09):
By the way, do we have a name?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Is it an s name?
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Do you know it's a it's an so y'all are
going to have an empire of d's like, it's yes, okay,
very good. Are you going to show a bunch of
pictures of him?
Speaker 3 (40:22):
Like?
Speaker 2 (40:22):
How do you feel about social media and your child?
Because it's all it's it's a little tricky. It's a
little tricky.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
I mean I've seen both sides of that. Sephan and
Aisha they show their kids a lot, Seth and Kelli
don't show theirs that much. Just the back of the mind.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
I didn't even realize he had a child.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
Mm hmm. Yeah, so I've seen both sides. Honestly, when
he's when my baby's first born, I'm going to really
determine on if he's cute or not.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Because the last thing that's what I want, that is
last thing I want is for him to be eighteen
twenty years old, be like, ma, why is this picture on.
Speaker 3 (40:56):
The online of me looking af Like I don't want that.
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
But wait, if you people like wait, don't feel rushed
to put your child if he looks like an alien.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
You're looking to his hand, his little foot.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
Wait, he fills out a little bit. Yes, I mean
my my son Carter that was talking to you earlier.
He was I don't like to use the word ugly.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
Yes, he was cute and look at him now.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (41:32):
But like I I got a d M one time
from this woman who was like yelling at me because
I didn't show pictures of my nieces and nephew. She's like, oh,
you have her pictures like your dogs. And I'm like, okay, well,
first of that's not your responsibility like my dogs she
and I like was like, well, ma'am, I don't now.
I definitely don't feel comfortable showing pictures of my of
my nieces and nephews because like, there's people like you
(41:55):
who are incessant on the fact that I post them
and what are you going to do with them? And
why do you need so badly? And their parents post
pictures of them so and so that to me, like
really with a red flag about you know, the craziness
of people. But I don't want people to dictate, you know,
what I do or don't do. So it's really game
(42:15):
time decision on little baby boy.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
But okay, all right, Yeah, he's gonna be cute, stop it.
Speaker 1 (42:21):
It's gonna be adorable.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
Stop six months from now exactly, and he's gonna be guccy.
Down to the socks I already know.
Speaker 3 (42:30):
Listen, I got them. I got them hand me downs
from Stephan and Aisha.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
There we go, listen, there we go, There we go,
because you know they only wear it one time.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
And yes, exactly the whole bag at Gucci hand me downs.
Speaker 1 (42:45):
So we're good.
Speaker 3 (42:47):
Must be nice, must be nice.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
All right, Well, before we let you go, let's talk
a little bit more about mental health, specifically seasonal depression,
because I'll be honest, the other day it was like two,
it was gloomy outside, and I was on my couch
and I just felt this like heaviness over me, and
I was like, oh my god, it's starting already. So
(43:10):
you know, do you have any advice or remedies or
just you know, any words of wisdom that you can
give to people who may be around this time of
year are starting to feel different and they don't know why.
Speaker 3 (43:21):
Right, Definitely, it's a normal thing. A lot of people
who don't experience depression during the other seasonal months of
the year experienced it during this time. So no, that
you're not alone. One thing for sure, especially for us
Black people, we need to be Vitamin D is huge
because we get vitamin D from the sun and vitamin
D deficiency. So get your get supple vitamin D supplement.
(43:44):
Make sure you're taking that because it will not only
help you mentally but also physically. It gets your energy
back up and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
And now, so why is that like not a universal thing.
Why is that like geared towards Black people.
Speaker 3 (43:58):
We're just known to have low vitamin D deficiency. I mean,
I'm sure white people can get it as well during
this time, but especially Black people.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
And I didn't know that was a thing. I don't
know that was a thing. Okay, So that's good for sure.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
It could be very isolating too, because it's cold outside,
it's dark faster, you don't really want to go anywhere,
but make an effort to if you feel safe. Obviously
we're still living in COVID times. Uh see, people go
get drinks with people, go hang out, just walk around
something with someone other than yourself, because that's going to
(44:35):
be really good to get you out of that mood.
For me, it's not. I mean, it kind of might
not be too late. I have a summer scent and
a winter scent. So if I will be like a
perfume if I'm feeling really down, I'm feeling really down
or really like just depressed or whatever, I'll spray my
summer scent and that sense. Use your senses during this time.
(44:57):
Eyes ears, now, watermelon. I don't know something that you
know can bring you to summary. Yes, that's my craving
right now.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
Oh mean, I was gonna I was gonna ask you
that because I was gonna tell you my child, my
my pregnancy cravings were ridiculous. But I love that, so either,
So spray something that's going to remind you of like
the summertime and happy and sunshine and all that.
Speaker 1 (45:21):
I love this, So throw the pumpkin spice in the trash.
Speaker 2 (45:24):
But I love me a little pumpkin, yeah, a little.
Speaker 3 (45:29):
But I don't be afraid of either. During right, Christmas,
but a pinata be real good, Like that is good.
Speaker 2 (45:36):
But a lot of people talk about in the wintertime
it's like cuffing seasons, like when you got to make
sure you gotta boo so and but now that you
kind of like broke it down, like make sure you're engaging,
make sure you're going out going and you have drinks whatever.
That makes sense. Like I couldn't understand cuffing season, but
I understand it now because you do need somebody, are you.
You should have somebody that you can just kind of
(45:57):
like cuddle up with, yeah, you know, hang out with whatever,
go to the movies with whatever.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
And my thing is, you know, I don't like to
leave the house, right Yeah, And I think half the
battle is like putting on clothes and make it literally hair.
Speaker 3 (46:10):
Yeah, it's hard. It's hard. Self care is it's easy
to talk about, but it's hard to get going. But
you always feel better afterwards. Like it's like working out.
It's really hard to start working out, but as soon
as you're done, you're like, I mean I'm tired, but
I'm so happy I did that. So there, just think
about the reward at the end of getting started, and
(46:31):
then also, like my last advice with the seasonal depression
is no that this is a season, like there will
be an end, the sun will come out again, the
days will be longer, it'll be lighter outside longer again.
So it's just as time span. There is light at
the end of the tunnel, and so it's not maybe
like this forever.
Speaker 1 (46:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 1 (46:51):
No, I mean I love that. It's so funny. So
the other day I was talking to one and I
was like, I'm starting to feel it and he was like,
you know, he was like, I'm like, do you feel
the same thing, And he was like no. I said,
remember when we lived in Portland. We lived in Portland, Oregon,
and he you know, it rained every day literally from
like early December until the middle of May. It literally
(47:12):
rained like every single day. So I was like, whan
you remember the family when we lived in Portland, Like
how when it rained every day, you just it just
didn't feel great. And he was like yeah. I was like,
well that's how I feel, you know this time of
year until probably early February, right or maybe you know,
maybe March. And he was like wow, like you know,
he doesn't feel that at all, and I'm just like, damn, like, yes,
(47:37):
that must be nice. So I'm like, I don't I mean, yeah,
I gotta really make an effort because it does keep
me in the house, like the cold, the dark, you know,
just balling up on the couch, not wanting to get dressed.
Not it's it, but it becomes debilitating because I do
feel like I do miss out on a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2 (47:54):
Yeah, for me to get rid of out of the
house in the winter time, it's a struggling pushed the mirror.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
Yes, yeah, yeah, And I feel bad because I think
people think that I'm being like anti social and it's
just like no, I'm.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
Just a lot of energy.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
Yeah, or like they're taking it personal because I'm not
hanging out with them, and I'm like, well, don't take
a person.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
I'm not hanging out with anyone right good, But yes,
I gotta make more of an effort because it's yes
for sure. And then my mom always said, you know,
if you are having a bad day, just put on
lipstick and I'll make you feel better. So I like
live by that. Okay, yeah, you always have to have
your lips popping.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
I like, you feel bad and so put lipstick on.
And just looking at yourself in the mirror.
Speaker 2 (48:39):
Yeah, and just say I'm beautiful, Like I'm beautiful. I
don't care what you say.
Speaker 3 (48:42):
Affirmation. Yeah, but instead of talking, affirmations will start becoming
a real thing.
Speaker 1 (48:47):
Yes, I do say though. One of my advice is,
like when you're feeling down, is just to like smile
and brend because when the smile, like the endorphins you
get from the smile, like really changes your mood. So
sometimes you just like sit there and just like put
on the big, cheesiest smile and you can like feel
a little bit better, feel little endorphin rush.
Speaker 4 (49:04):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (49:05):
So sure, well you have been amazing, amazing we got
you know, you didn't mind us getting all up into
the curry lea business.
Speaker 3 (49:14):
All right, I'll tell all this, I'll tell all the stuff.
Nobody else wants to talk, I'll talk.
Speaker 2 (49:20):
And if we ever see y'all out, I'm just coming
to sit down at the table. They will never know
I'm not family.
Speaker 1 (49:25):
They won't.
Speaker 3 (49:26):
They won't.
Speaker 2 (49:30):
Me and Robert are coming to the family reunion, okay,

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yes we do. We're so happy to be back once again,
and just like usual, we have our reasonably Shady Moment
of the week. And guys, it is a doozy for me. Okay. So,
a couple of weeks ago, we had a dietitian I
(01:12):
believe that was we were talking to her name is
her name?
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Er?
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Yeah? So she said she's a trainer training a trainer.
But yes, we were talking about nutrition one.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yes, and she said that asparacus is great to eat. Okay,
it helps you lose weight. It tastes good. Just put
in an oven like for like fifteen twenty minutes and
roast it up, and you're gonna be like feeling like
a million bucks. And I was like, you know what,
I was sick of Kale because I've been a Kale
girl for like ten years. Okay, Kale, I'm done with you. Broccoli,
I'm done with you too, because Brocoli, you give me gas. Okay, Okay.
(01:42):
So some Carly, our director of operations, she said, but hell,
you know that Asparicus makes your peasting, okay, And I.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Can't believe you didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Well I did know that, but to what degree I
did not know? So I went out of town with
my kids last weekend and there was a whole lot
that went down with the with our room that I had.
I had booked a Sweet. I'm in Tallahassee, by the way,
I have booked a Sweet, but this hotel I don't
know guests through that reservation in trash Can. So we
ended up in like this little small room.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Okay, but whatever, We're only there for that moment.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
But okay, yeah, maybe maybe another episode that would be
my shady moment. So I went to go pete and
my kids were like, ma, you have funked up the
whole room. Were you farting? What did you doing there?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And I was like, oh my god, my peace. Stanks,
I mean like stanks, thanks, like horribly stinks. So long
story short, asparagus, you are shaky.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
You are shady. Okay, you're shady. So are you no
longer eating it now?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
So this is the deal, guys, I actually really love it,
So I'm gonna eat it, but not as much as before.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Okay, or just eat it when you're like when you
know you're not going to be peeing around other people? Right?
Speaker 2 (02:55):
When does that happened? Like I'm you're at home, like,
eat it for dinner and you go to pee. You're
using your own pre That's true. That's true, very true.
So if I'm if this, but this would make any
guy run away from me.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
So if if there's any dayting going on, then asparagus.
I cannot eat asparacase you're shady. I want everybody to
be clear on that. But I don't want anyone to
like not eat asparagus because it's really good for you.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I know exactly. So you know, just if you're if
you're around a guy or whatever, just give them the disclaimer.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Oh okay, my peace.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Thanks, yes, because I'm being healthy, because.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I'm being okay. Okay, I didn't fart, I didn't go
number two. Right, it's just my pee. Yeah, okay, got.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
It because of.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Right, Yes, that's it. Okay, that's it. Now do you
have a shady moment?
Speaker 1 (03:40):
I mean I just have a frustrating moment.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
So you know, we moved in a new house. The
first thing my kids want is a basketball court. Not
just my kids, but my husband want to So it's
like we have to have a basketball court. And I
was ready to like put this basketball court in Okay,
and something told me this was literally yesterday something and
we're schedule. Actually they're out there doing the court now.
Something told me, why don't you talk to the builder
(04:07):
to make sure, like, you know, there's no issues with
putting this basketball court in Okay?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Okay, I did.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Long story short. I mean it's actually like, you know,
a little silver lining if we if I had gone
with my original plan, yeah, I would have been in
trouble with the county. No, I would have been like
building the court on on in an area for like
a utility easement, a ten foot utility easement. So I
had to reduce the size of our basketball court by
(04:34):
ten feet.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
So is it a half court?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
It was always a half court, but it was literally
going to be like a quarter court, a whole half
court that would allow them allow them to like shoot
three pointers from every spot on the court, from the corners,
from the top, the wings, whatever. Now we have to
reduce it by ten feet, so they can't get their
corner three point shots.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
So they just did just have a file line. They
shooting from the fire.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
So they're shooting from like what kind of corners? Talking
about it's still in this this thing. And I have
to hear my son, Corey, well, why why can't we
do this? And why why why I and just do
it and Bubba and I'm like no, because if so,
I'm like wan, I mean not want Corey. If someone
from the county comes back here and sees that this
court is on top of this easement, right supposed to
(05:19):
be here, like they can literally find me, yes and
tell us to dig it up. Yes, It's like, well
so what just paid a fine? And I'm like, boy,
get it, boy, exactly.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
He needs to get it, little boy.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
So our dreams of having this amazing full half court
basketball court have been shacked.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Well clearly, Robbing, you're part of the wrong family, and
we're gonna talk to the right family today as it
relates to basketball. Okay, we have a guest with us
and her name is we'll let you introduce her, Robin.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Okay, So our guest today is none other than the
beautiful Sadel Curry Lee. A lot of you might know
Saddel because she belongs to a very prestigious basketball family. Yep. Okay.
Her father is Del Curry. He played sixteen years in
the league. Her brother is the amazing Stephan Curry. Her
(06:17):
other brother who plays for the Golden State Warriors. Her younger, well,
I guess middle brother is Steph Curry, who plays for
the seventy six ers. Okay. She is also married to
Damien Lee, who plays for the Golden State Warriors. I
mean I thought she, I thought I had basketball all
around me. But so anyway, but we're talking to Saddel
(06:37):
not only because she's you know, amazing and beautiful, because
she's a beautiful content creator. She also has a podcast,
but her her focus is mental health. So I'm gonna
read her bio and introduce her and the mental health
before I talk about Sadel. The mental health topic that
we've recently discussed got such a positive response. I mean,
(07:01):
I saw emails where people said, I just made an
appointment because of you all. So people are making appointments
to talk to mental health professionals because of the of
the episode that we did with Mirja, and you know,
people who said thank you. I was in a really
dark place. My cousin told me it was the best
one yet. So yes, you know, when your family's given
(07:23):
out compliments and then I'll do that. Those don't come
very easily. So anyway, but said though Sadel Curry Lee
became known in the digital space for entrepreneurship, athleticism, and
taste making in the beauty community, her mission online has
always been to surface the topic of mental health to
the forefront of conversation. Having struggled with her own mental
(07:47):
health for several years, Saddell aims to destigmatize the discussion
around mental health and offer firsthand advice on how we
can all discuss the subject better, as well as things
we can do to improve our mental health. Because life
that's the name of Her podcast, centers around an open
and honest discussion amongst Saddel, a mental health professional and
(08:08):
listener input regarding topics ranging from confronting anxieties to being
a supportive ally when someone close to you is struggling
with their mental health. So Saddell also recently shared her
journey with IVF he her struggles getting pregnant and she
she is pregnant with child. About you burst, So.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
We don't this podcast gonna be fast because she might
burst into love it.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
With, you know, without further ado, Welcome to Reasonably Shady Sidel. Welcome, Welcome.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
We're so happy to.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Have you cracking up. Oh my god, I just want
to say that just all, you already got the communication
down of the relationship, just offhand. And if you're gonna
go into the ladyship talking about I had hysteragus, I'm sorry.
That's great communication.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Is it?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Or is it team too much?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
No, I've never seen too much.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
You're set in the standard like, look, dude, yes, get
real comfortable with me because I'm about to.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Share everything because my peace.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Thanks right, And if you're not comfortable with that, then
you can go yes, yes, I love it now.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
I have a quick first top top of the episode question,
So your your podcast because life one? How long have
you been doing it? And why the title? I love it?
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Thank you. So we just started in May. Our first
episode was May nineteenth, twenty twenty one, and when comes.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Up, I'm sorry, that's around the same time we start.
So we are podcast movies.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Yes, thank you for thinking it. Yes, And when I
was trying to figure out a name or a title
for it, because I want mental health to be just
like a normal thing. And I think because life just
shows that should happen like stuff happens in life, and
it's gonna thro you curve balls, and so it should
not be a thing where everyone should be isolated or
(10:06):
just surprised by it because life is hard and what
that brings mental health challenges. I feel like everyone has
been to health challenges, whether on a high level or
a low level. You're going to go through something in
your life that's going to bring you anxiety or some
sort of like tension that's hard to deal with. So
that's kind of where because life comes from, let's make
it normal.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yes, Yes, I love that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
And in the church world, I used to be a
first lady. They would call that you'll test and then it's.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
So everybody has a test at some point in time
in their life. And then they got that a good
old testimony, my testimony. I got so many testimonies to you,
you don't even want to get me started.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
So, Siddel, you have shared that, like you recently had
some mental health struggles. How was that? How was it
to be able to share that? Because I think sometimes
when you come from a family like yours, where everyone
sees the glitz and the glamour and these success and
the accomplishments, you know, sometimes you kind of feel like
(11:10):
you don't want to share that type of information because
people assume your life is perfect or you know, gosh,
what could be wrong with you? Or you know, why
are you struggling? So how did you get to the
point where you felt like you could share your mental
health struggles, especially with you know, the spotlight on your
whole family.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Yeah, So to give you just a quick background on
how my mental health challenges started. I was in a
very abusive relationship from the end of my college I
mean high school years to the first two years of college,
and so that break brought us own set of like PTSD,
and then I also have five concussions from playing volleyball,
(11:50):
So so that I talk about that because a lot
of people think that mental health challenges just come from
life experiences, which they do, but it also come from
chemical imbalances, getting hit in the head five times like
so many other things. Then just what's happening in your
environment and how much money do you have and how
(12:12):
much do you have like all of these kind of
materialistic things that matter, but you know, there are other
things that play into the mental health space. And so
when I decided to talk about it, it was really
because there was a lack of people with the platform
talking about it at that time, and I was going
through it like I just was just really going through
(12:35):
it as a transitional point in my life, going from
college into like the real world, career world and how
to do it Earlier than I thought because I had
gotten my fifth concussion and my doctors were like, Tode,
you're going to be a vegetable if you keep playing
like you need.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Okay, So wait a minute, is that normal in the
volleyball world?
Speaker 3 (12:53):
No? Okay, And that's why I kept playing, because after
my third one, my doctors were like, what's the likely
hood of you getting a fourth one? Usually, like in football,
they'll cut you off at well, they're supposed to cut
you off at three concussions, okay. So after I got
my third when they were like, what's the likelihood of
you getting a fourth one? And then my fourth one came,
what's the likelihood of you getting a fifth one?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Okay? So I was like, the ball hitting you in
the head.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Yeah, So I played against I played D one college volleyball.
So I was playing against like some big, like strong girls,
and if you don't get your hands up fast enough,
the ball is just gonna the ball has no forgiveness.
It's going to come right into your face. So four
of the concussions were me getting hit in the head
(13:39):
down the line, and then one of them I went
to dig a ball and my head hit the ground
first before the rest of my body did.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I think that's just my reflexes were with every hit
in the head, my reflexes was just getting worse and
worse and worse.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
So I have like, that's crazy. I've never really heard
of concussions in volleyball. But makes sense, like I explained,
it definitely makes sense. Yeah, you know, we need to
bring light to that topic.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Yeah, exactly. I mean it's becoming more of a topic now.
I think my niece had a soccer game a couple
of weeks ago and she had got him hit in
the head with the ball and she got she got
put on concussion protocol and I was like, you know what,
I'm not mad about that, Like she's nine, Yes, how
hard are they kicking the ball in soccer right now?
And not at the nine year old league? But they
were taking it very seriously, which I'm so happy to
(14:28):
see because I wish that I would have taken it seriously.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
But you know, soccer is like the number one concussion. Like,
you know, people think it's all football, football, football, but
from what I've heard, it's actually the doctors see more
concussions from soccer.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Why because you hit your head with the ball.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I guess you hit each other's head. I don't know. I
don't play. They don't have much too much running for me, okay, okay, okay,
So yeah, I mean going into that season of life,
that traditional phase of life, I had had a platform
people following me because of my family, but I really
wasn't doing anything with it. And so we live in
(15:04):
we live in a digital age. I was on Instagram
all the time, like for people to relate to, and
I couldn't find anyone with the platform who was really
talking about how like life can really be. And I
was nervous because obviously you get the you get the
pushback like you're in this amazing family, there should there
should be nothing wrong with you. And that was hard.
(15:25):
But I think my purpose in life I've always had
a passion for like mental health and psychology, even before
I started dealing with my own challenges. But I always
my mom always said when you find your purpose, you
need to go for it and like never lose sight
of it. And I feel like my purpose in life
is to share my experiences, however uncomfortable and may make
(15:45):
other people feel.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
So Yeah, speaking of your mom, I look at her
and I'm like, that's a.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
Bad one, right she is? She loved ye.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
And look, let me tell you. I think that I
should the story with you. How this was like, Gosh,
in two thousand probably three, someone I was out of
Pittsburgh Georgetown game because my brother in law played for Pittsburgh. Okay,
and this young white dude he was like you know,
a student at Georgetown or something was like, are you
Steph Curry's mother?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
And I'm like, yeah, I can see it.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
I can see it.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
So I mean, but I was literally like twenty something
at that time. Yeah, And so in a way I
was like super flattered because your mom is so gorgeous.
But then I was like, do I look old enough
to be Steph Curry's mother?
Speaker 4 (16:35):
No?
Speaker 3 (16:35):
You know, my mom literally is like Benjamin Button. We
call her Benjamin Button. The older she gets, the younger, hid.
I don't even know how she does that. I just
hope that I have that genus.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Yeah, listen, that thing right there is a bad one.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Yeah, awesome.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Yes, Now I'm just gonna get right onto it. So
when the family goes to dinner at an expensive restaurant
and your brother Steph is there, I mean, is it
just assumed he's paying the bill?
Speaker 3 (17:10):
No, So We've always played a game in our family
where I I always take the bill at the end
of the watch, at the end of the day. No, no, no,
I take the actual you have it, I take it.
I said, give it to me and won't go around.
Especially once Seth got into the league and started making
some money. As well, they'll whoever's the closest a little
(17:31):
bit the grand scheme of things, right between my dad
and my brothers, who ever got the closest to the
bill didn't have to pay, but whoever was the furthest
away had to pay. So we would go around. You
have to go around and you make your guests on
how much.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
To guess on how much the bill is? Okay, and
yeah it get the closest okay, okay, So okay, because
I'm thinking, if if he's not there, then we just
order one meet. But if he's there, we order like the.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Old right order, we get the tasting menu.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
When when he's there, you don't hear any lip from
my dad. But with my dad, but it's just my
dad and he has to pay. You're gonna you can
get what you want, but just know that you're gonna
hear a little bit of Dan got it? Okay?
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Noted duly noted.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
That is funny. So speaking of your family, tell us
what was it like or has it been like growing
up Curry? So growing up you know with your dad
as an NBA legend, I mean he played for sixteen
years like that is a mate? Sixteen years is that
a record. Is that a record? No?
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I think Ben's Vin's twenty right, Vince cars No, But
what about well Ship Lebron right now is about to
bust a record? How lousy Lebron is about almost?
Speaker 1 (18:47):
For thirteen fourteen? Okay, okay, let's two thousand and three
he went, he was in the year after Walma start.
Did he have Mellow go in at the same time?
I think, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
He's up there, he's past fifteen.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
He's a long time.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
It'll be a lot of people passing my dad. But
he did play for that, for his time, for his
for that time in the league, that was a long time. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
And let me tell you so Wan had Like when
he was thirty two, his knees just went bad. I
mean I think I think they're like arthritic, they're bone
on bone and he just couldn't play anymore. So for
these guys to be able to continue to play, and
you know, that pounding every day, like people don't realize that, Yeah,
it's not football, but like that pounding on that court,
(19:25):
that hard floor every day like that is that's major.
So for anyone that is playing longer than shit, seven years,
who on the body yeah, it's amazing. So I'm like, okay,
maybe you know they said what tom Brady is vegan, Like,
maybe there's something behind that.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Tom Brady is taking doing something else. Okay, now got.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Him on a regiment, special special plan.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's popping something. But back to your family. Yeah,
you know, your father playing in the league for a
long time, your brother, we all you know, both of
your brothers are super successful. But Steph is one of
the best players in the league. I mean my father,
like when Stuff was hurt last year, he was like
wanted to cry.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
Because he's like he's like some thing to do.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Yeah, and Stuff has like changed the game totally.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Watch.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Yeah. Yeah. So so what was it like being you know,
just the daughter in the family. Oh, and then you
have a daughter and the sister, a super uber successful
sister in law.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
So when we all get to in a minute.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
And you and you have a husband that plays in
the NBA. So what is it like for you, as
you know, do you just feel like I'm just sidel
or do you feel do.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
You get lost in it?
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Do you get lost in it?
Speaker 3 (20:44):
No, my parents did a really really good job at
giving us a normal lifestyle. Obviously, growing up as a daughter,
there wasn't social media. There wasn't like a lot of
you know, the stuff that they have now to make
people even more famous quote unquote. So I never really
felt different growing up as as a daughter of someone
(21:06):
of a guy in the NBA. But when Stephan went
to well had that big breakout at Davidson, I started
noticing like people were starting to treat me different, and
that made me a little bit uncomfortable. I never really
liked attention. I'm a very inept person. Yeah, I just don't.
I don't like it that much. And so when I
(21:28):
went to college and people would be like, oh, you
can come into this party because your stuff curry, sister,
I'd be a little mad, like, no, I don't want
to come to your party anymore.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Yeah yeah, or like stop telling people that you know,
like you don't even want people to know cis exactly.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
But you know what, more than anything, like I it's
been a really really cool experience because I don't like
the attention, but I love watching the people in my
life like elevate and like just break break records and
do things that people never thought that they be able
to do. Through things that I never thought that they
would be able to do or could do, and if
I'm shocked all the time. But I again, I feel
(22:08):
like I live a very I always say I'm an
ordinary girl who is an extraordinary or who experiences extraordinary things.
And I just feel really blessed because again, I could
go to the store or I could just do normal
things and not feel like I'm anything special, quote unquote,
just living a normal life, which would be a lot
(22:29):
for me, like with my mental health and all that
kind of stuff, Like if I had the same the
same kind of fame as stuff that. I think God
really did his thing and gave the correct talents to
one of us, because I would not be able to
handle all the all of the attention that he gets.
He just does so well with it. Even my dad
and Seth do really and Damien do really well with that.
(22:50):
I'd probably never leave my house if I had all
that attention. So yeah, I'm just like, I'm like the
biggest cheerleader. I love just the witness of all this.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Now, I was on the Instagram and I saw how
Steph and Aisha responded to you being pregnant, right, and
they went freaking bonkers. And I didn't get it, Like
I was like, why are you screaming yelling? Then going
crazy like okay, the sister's pregnant.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
I did not know your story, So I would love
for you to share a little bit of your story.
But before you share your story, cause you know, I
know you're married to your husband who's also on the
same team as your brother. Now, how did that go plan?
I want to know, like, did you see him and
you was like you talk? You said to your brother,
can you hook a sister up?
Speaker 1 (23:40):
What happened?
Speaker 3 (23:41):
I want to not go.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Ahead, excuse me, because I mean from I would think
your brother would be like, there's no way you're dating
an NBA player, Like, hell no, I'm not having it.
Find someone else, find a banker.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I did not want it. I always said growing up,
I would never date or marry a basketball player NBA player,
because I don't know how they are. And I know
that like the guys in my family are top notch
and they're like we called the unicorns, and I didn't
think that that was possible. But when I met I
(24:19):
met my husband way before he was even in the
league because we went to I went to Elon he
went to Drexel and so they're in the same conference.
So he was playing basketball in Drexel. But like, I
didn't know if he was any good. I didn't know anything.
Like he even transferred to Louisville and like hit me
in my d MS and I was like, who are you? Like,
(24:41):
what do you do? Like whatever? And so we met.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Because you were Steph Curry's sister. He was.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
He always tells me that he wasn't like ponning for me.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
I'm like, yes, he was doing he was you know,
he was trying to get in the curries. Okay, we understand.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I mean he succeeded. That's what.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
That.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
Does your brother feel about it? I mean, I'm sure
he's over it now. I mean you guys, are you know, happy.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Their best friend? Like their relationship is kind of sickening,
to be honest.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
I'm like, you're a little too close and you know
what i mean, Look, he better he better stay on
Steph steam because Steph can keep an eye on him.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yes, yes, I mean it's definitely.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Easier for me.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
May be like, excuse me, who are you talking? Who
is this woman you're talking to?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (25:38):
You know what's kind of annoying though about him being
on the team is that everyone thinks that Stephen literally
called up the GM of the Warriors like a, this
is my brother in law. But Damien was on the
team before we were even engaged. We were just dating,
and like the whole the whole nepotism thing. And then
I'm just like, do y'all not know how the NBA works?
Because they're not going to give away just money to
(26:01):
somebody because of who they're related to, Like they have
to actually be able to contribute something.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
I don't know, your brother's married to Doc Rivers's daughter.
I know, it's so very incest.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Yes, I realized that how he ends up on the
same team, I don't know, but.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
It no, I get it, like I love it. Keep
it in the family. You know, like good people when
you know them, And so I feel like, hey, if
if we already know the Curries are great people, so
if the Curries approve of you know, these the Damien,
then like he has to be an amazing person. And
within the NBA, it's not just about your talent, it's
(26:45):
it is almost equally about how good of a person
are you, How reliable are you?
Speaker 3 (26:49):
How?
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Yeah, I mean more and more of these days, like
it's more important to have people of character in your
organization than just people with talent.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
So right, okay, so so share with us. You are,
by the way, congratulations you getting ready to give? So
when is your du date? Can you share that?
Speaker 3 (27:05):
Or I'm November eighteen, five weeks today? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:09):
Oh my gosh, okay, so what well, because I'll give
you my brief because it's so weird. My kids asked
me this this morning. They were like, Mom, did you
have any trouble getting pregnant? And I was like, first
of all, why are y'all even thinking about that? Second
of all, I was I and I did so my
first child, Grace. You know, it took me like six
months or so. There was nothing that the doctors felt
(27:32):
like they needed to do. If it had gone longer,
then of course we would have done some different things,
but you know, it just took about six months. The
twins was like that, you know, pregnant?
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Was that a mistake?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
That's what the twins asked the whoopsies. They were like,
oh my gosh, were we mistakes? I'm like, first of all, y'all,
but like a whoopsie, No, it was not. It was
definitely played. So they asked that.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Soon because they're not even they are Grace and the
twins or how many.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
They're eighteen months apart. So I wanted them.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
To be you wanted to yourself, Well.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
No, I thought it was gonna be one more, but
it was too It was too Yeah, and I wanted
the one more and Grace to be grow up together
and do stuff together, but it was two more. So yes,
then I was torture. But anyway, enough about me. What
to give us, Like your story, because that's every woman
who's been pregnant, they have a story.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Oh yeah, yes, for sure. So Damie and I got
married in twenty eighteen, and like June of twenty eighteen,
we were like, let's kind of wait a year before
we start trying to have a baby. So I got
I got on birth control, and then we got married.
And then December of salesand eighteen came around and we
were like, eh, they spend enough time together, Like let's
(28:39):
let's start trying to have a baby. Let's get it on. Yeah,
And so we haven't tried about six months pretty much.
We have been trying her about six months. Nothing happened,
went to my doctor. She was like, oh, ye're young,
and just like keep trying and then if the year
comes by and nothing happens, and come back and we'll
do some tests. I got pregnant and in September twenty nineteen,
(29:02):
but it ended up being a chemical pregnancy, which really
really sucks. Basically, it is a chemical pregnancy. It's like
an early miscarriage. So I tested positive, and then because
I was trying to get pregnant, I would test every
day every day, and the positive just get lighter and
lighter and lighter until it went away.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
So it's like a early Is that a false positive?
Speaker 1 (29:24):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
No, No, the baby implants, but it doesn't stick long enough.
Oh okay, okay, oh wow, gotcha bible. So right, I
went back went back to my doctor. Six months later,
we got test done. Uh two weeks into or a
week into quarantine when the lockdown happened twenty twenty, we
(29:45):
get the call that we couldn't have kids naturally or
we had like a really really low chance of having
kids naturally.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
Uh issues with both of us kind of wow yeah,
which people were with because like we're so young. I
was twenty yes, twenty five at that time and he
was only twenty seven.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
So was the miscarriage related to the reasons why you
can't why they said you couldn't get pregnant.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
My miscarriages happened because I have a progesterone level or
a progesterone level issue after implantation, so my progesterones just
levels didn't stay high enough, Okay, okay, And so we
went into like right into fertility treatments. We tried three
months of IUIS, which is interuterine insemination, which basically is
(30:35):
a step up from natural. They'll put me on medications
and create more eggs and then they'll insert his like
they call it the good swimmers through a catheter. And
we tried those for three months, didn't work, took a
month off of October of twenty twenty, and then we
went into IVF in twenty twenty, twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
Okay, and that's like pretty rigorous, right, like you have to.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
Yes, yes, I did two weeks of three injections a
day in my stomach. And honestly, though, like this is
this is kind of like full circle right now, because
it was this time last year is when I started
watching the House Lives of Potomacs. So you guys, you guys,
I took a whole month off. I took a whole
(31:23):
month off of November to do my I v F
and just would sit down every day with my husband,
my mother in law, and we would watch Real House
Lives of Potomac. Every we watched this all seasons, every day.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Watched the whole week You get pregnant.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
You did did so, thank you, and then it's like
this literally, So anyways, we did our IVF cycle. We
got a good amount of embryos, which is as far
as they can be developed outside of my body. Went
through our first embryo transfer in February of twenty twenty one.
(32:04):
That didn't work. It just was a really devastating time.
So then we went into my next embria transfer, which
I had asked my doctor, like, can I go on
some progesterone because I felt like I think I had
another chemical pregnancy in the first embryo transfer. So that's
kind of where I found out. Went on progesterone for
the second one, and this one stuck and we are
(32:28):
thirty five weeks pregnant with that first baby. Boy.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Oh it's a boy. Oh Jesus Christ, girls.
Speaker 3 (32:38):
We have three girls already. We have that girls.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
That's true, three girls and some boy and one boy. Okay,
so now I get it. Now, I get why your
brother and your sister in law were super excited that
you are preggers, and so like your husband, I know,
he was just like through the roof.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
He was so excited. I actually got to surprise him
too with this pregnancy, because when you go through this
and there's doctors and timelines involved, like you know, every
single time I got to a doctor at this day
this time, so I had actually tested and found out
earlier than expected that I was pregnant, and so he
they were in the middle of season last year and
he was away for a road trip when I had
(33:22):
found out that I was pregnant. So I got to
surprise him when he came home. He had no idea
that I was pregnant, because again, we had a week
to go until I went to the doctor for my
blood test to see if it had worked. And that
was just like one of the best moments of my life,
because you know, I really wanted this to be as
(33:42):
normal of an experience as possible, and it hasn't been
that normal because of all the doctors and all my
legs and syrups and all that kinds of.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Oh my gosh, it was good. Like, how were you
able to even keep that from him?
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Like right few days? Oh my gosh, artist thing every
he was like, was I am I the last one
to know? Did you tell everyone except me? Like? No, no,
I only you told your mom, told my mom and
my sister in mom.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Okay, speaking of sister in law, let's get back to
this dinner that y'all play Russian Roulette with the bill.
So ah, yeah, first of all, does she lets you
cook with her? Because she's got this, you know, all
this cooking situations going on.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Is her food really good?
Speaker 3 (34:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:28):
That's it's getting there. We're not done with the question yet.
Hold on, hold time. Okay, when y'all have moments at
the because you know, any family will have some tense
moments at the table. Okay, nine times out of ten,
she starts it right, she.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Starts the draw.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
She's the jokesters, she tries to but does everyone understanding
her jokes? Okay, the jokes.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Really not funny, No, they're funny, but she has a
different type of humor and and you really have to
understand her to really like think it's funny. Sometimes you
look at her like I will laugh. You laugh at
her because she's she thinks she's hilarious and she is.
Her and Stefan just feed off of each other really cool.
(35:16):
So that's funny to watch. Even if you don't get
the joke, you know that they're in their own little world. Okay,
good for them. R No, she food's bombed. She if
you bomb really have y'all been to any of the
restaurants has.

Speaker 4 (36:18):
They don't like the Warriors, and it was they started
yelping her like before they started negative, negative, yelping her
at the fans out.
Speaker 3 (36:31):
Deep but some food so good? That is.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
Now. How is your relationship with your sister in law?
You all, from what I can tell you all appear
to be really really close.
Speaker 3 (36:41):
Yeah no, I super blast. I was always really hard
on all my brother's girlfriends, as.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
You should be, because you know that holds out here
in the street.
Speaker 3 (36:53):
The DR's a lot.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Of women and it's a lot to it up to
because their mother is a bad one. And so if
like the girlfriend or the scallywag got a hole on
the side, I can't live up to the mama. It's
a problem.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
Yeah no. But with Ayisha, like, I was mean to
her for about two weeks okay, good, and I couldn't
be I couldn't be mean to her anymore. I was like,
I can't not like you, and we became like that.
I was her maid of honor in their wedding.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
Oh so yeah, special.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
I couldn't be with both my sister in laws are
amazing their sisters. I always wanted, Oh oh yeah, they
perfectly family.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
If you all have Thanksgiving dinner, I wouldn't mind being
invited one.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Day, or if y'all wanted, I could just like fit
in y'all be like, oh, there's cousin.
Speaker 3 (37:45):
Ron everyone does. Everyone does.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Or going to a restaurant because I just want to
go in order the whole menu because I know I'm
not paying, so I'm just gonna order, Okay, bring me
the lobster.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
And I don't know, you might you might have you
might have to guess on the on the on the
bill that.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
She makes money too.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
I'm not money. Let's get into your Instagram because it
is the pictures, the way it's laid out, like everything
about it. It's like clearly I look at it and
(38:25):
I'm like, okay, what professional is doing this? It's it's amazing,
So talk to us about like why you there's like
a style to it, is there?
Speaker 3 (38:37):
I mean I I don't try to fit any kind
of style. I think that I just try to be myself,
and it's it gets sometimes imposter syndrome, like I'm not
doing enough, I'm not good enough, because then I go
look at other people's pages and I'm like, wow, that's
so esthetically pleasing. Every every filter is perfect with the other.
(38:57):
But that's just not me. Like if I've been hours
editing a photo or thinking about, you know, what I'm
going to post, like, it doesn't feel genuine and authentic.
And I want everything that I do to feel genuine,
authentic because that's how I've gotten to this point. And
it's much harder to be someone else than it is
just to be me. And I don't have time, Like,
I just don't have time. It's exhausting. So but thank you.
(39:19):
I appreciate that. I know, I want people to look
at my Instagram and know that that's me, and it's
there's nothing fake about it. There's nothing you know, highlight
really like I like to be. I like to show
all the good and the bad of my life because
it's normal.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Yeah, I think you do an awesome job, and it's
it is definitely aesthetically pleasing, but without being you know,
it doesn't it does not look fake or forced. So
in in in the content creator world, that's really it's
it's people don't really realize how hard it is actually
to put out good content. Aesthetically pleasing content. Ye, so
(39:57):
you know, kudos to you for doing a great job.
You're welcome. Yes, Now, are you gonna have I'm sorry, okay,
go ahead, no, no, do you have I own to get
into this topic?
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Okay? Are you going to.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
You know, after your son is born?
Speaker 2 (40:09):
By the way, do we have a name?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Is it an s name?
Speaker 2 (40:11):
Do you know it's a it's an so y'all are
going to have an empire of d's like, it's yes, okay,
very good. Are you going to show a bunch of
pictures of him?
Speaker 3 (40:22):
Like?
Speaker 2 (40:22):
How do you feel about social media and your child?
Because it's all it's it's a little tricky. It's a
little tricky.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
I mean I've seen both sides of that. Sephan and
Aisha they show their kids a lot, Seth and Kelli
don't show theirs that much. Just the back of the mind.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
I didn't even realize he had a child.
Speaker 3 (40:40):
Mm hmm. Yeah, so I've seen both sides. Honestly, when
he's when my baby's first born, I'm going to really
determine on if he's cute or not.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Because the last thing that's what I want, that is
last thing I want is for him to be eighteen
twenty years old, be like, ma, why is this picture on.
Speaker 3 (40:56):
The online of me looking af Like I don't want that.
I'm not.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
But wait, if you people like wait, don't feel rushed
to put your child if he looks like an alien.
Speaker 3 (41:09):
You're looking to his hand, his little foot.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
Wait, he fills out a little bit. Yes, I mean
my my son Carter that was talking to you earlier.
He was I don't like to use the word ugly.
Speaker 2 (41:25):
Yes, he was cute and look at him now.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (41:32):
But like I I got a d M one time
from this woman who was like yelling at me because
I didn't show pictures of my nieces and nephew. She's like, oh,
you have her pictures like your dogs. And I'm like, okay, well,
first of that's not your responsibility like my dogs she
and I like was like, well, ma'am, I don't now.
I definitely don't feel comfortable showing pictures of my of
my nieces and nephews because like, there's people like you
(41:55):
who are incessant on the fact that I post them
and what are you going to do with them? And
why do you need so badly? And their parents post
pictures of them so and so that to me, like
really with a red flag about you know, the craziness
of people. But I don't want people to dictate, you know,
what I do or don't do. So it's really game
(42:15):
time decision on little baby boy.
Speaker 2 (42:17):
But okay, all right, Yeah, he's gonna be cute, stop it.
Speaker 1 (42:21):
It's gonna be adorable.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
Stop six months from now exactly, and he's gonna be guccy.
Down to the socks I already know.
Speaker 3 (42:30):
Listen, I got them. I got them hand me downs
from Stephan and Aisha.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
There we go, listen, there we go, There we go,
because you know they only wear it one time.
Speaker 3 (42:40):
And yes, exactly the whole bag at Gucci hand me downs.
Speaker 1 (42:45):
So we're good.
Speaker 3 (42:47):
Must be nice, must be nice.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
All right, Well, before we let you go, let's talk
a little bit more about mental health, specifically seasonal depression,
because I'll be honest, the other day it was like two,
it was gloomy outside, and I was on my couch
and I just felt this like heaviness over me, and
I was like, oh my god, it's starting already. So
(43:10):
you know, do you have any advice or remedies or
just you know, any words of wisdom that you can
give to people who may be around this time of
year are starting to feel different and they don't know why.
Speaker 3 (43:21):
Right, Definitely, it's a normal thing. A lot of people
who don't experience depression during the other seasonal months of
the year experienced it during this time. So no, that
you're not alone. One thing for sure, especially for us
Black people, we need to be Vitamin D is huge
because we get vitamin D from the sun and vitamin
D deficiency. So get your get supple vitamin D supplement.
(43:44):
Make sure you're taking that because it will not only
help you mentally but also physically. It gets your energy
back up and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
And now, so why is that like not a universal thing.
Why is that like geared towards Black people.
Speaker 3 (43:58):
We're just known to have low vitamin D deficiency. I mean,
I'm sure white people can get it as well during
this time, but especially Black people.
Speaker 2 (44:09):
And I didn't know that was a thing. I don't
know that was a thing. Okay, So that's good for sure.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
It could be very isolating too, because it's cold outside,
it's dark faster, you don't really want to go anywhere,
but make an effort to if you feel safe. Obviously
we're still living in COVID times. Uh see, people go
get drinks with people, go hang out, just walk around
something with someone other than yourself, because that's going to
(44:35):
be really good to get you out of that mood.
For me, it's not. I mean, it kind of might
not be too late. I have a summer scent and
a winter scent. So if I will be like a
perfume if I'm feeling really down, I'm feeling really down
or really like just depressed or whatever, I'll spray my
summer scent and that sense. Use your senses during this time.
(44:57):
Eyes ears, now, watermelon. I don't know something that you
know can bring you to summary. Yes, that's my craving
right now.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
Oh mean, I was gonna I was gonna ask you
that because I was gonna tell you my child, my
my pregnancy cravings were ridiculous. But I love that, so either,
So spray something that's going to remind you of like
the summertime and happy and sunshine and all that.
Speaker 1 (45:21):
I love this, So throw the pumpkin spice in the trash.
Speaker 2 (45:24):
But I love me a little pumpkin, yeah, a little.
Speaker 3 (45:29):
But I don't be afraid of either. During right, Christmas,
but a pinata be real good, Like that is good.
Speaker 2 (45:36):
But a lot of people talk about in the wintertime
it's like cuffing seasons, like when you got to make
sure you gotta boo so and but now that you
kind of like broke it down, like make sure you're engaging,
make sure you're going out going and you have drinks whatever.
That makes sense. Like I couldn't understand cuffing season, but
I understand it now because you do need somebody, are you.
You should have somebody that you can just kind of
(45:57):
like cuddle up with, yeah, you know, hang out with whatever,
go to the movies with whatever.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
And my thing is, you know, I don't like to
leave the house, right Yeah, And I think half the
battle is like putting on clothes and make it literally hair.
Speaker 3 (46:10):
Yeah, it's hard. It's hard. Self care is it's easy
to talk about, but it's hard to get going. But
you always feel better afterwards. Like it's like working out.
It's really hard to start working out, but as soon
as you're done, you're like, I mean I'm tired, but
I'm so happy I did that. So there, just think
about the reward at the end of getting started, and
(46:31):
then also, like my last advice with the seasonal depression
is no that this is a season, like there will
be an end, the sun will come out again, the
days will be longer, it'll be lighter outside longer again.
So it's just as time span. There is light at
the end of the tunnel, and so it's not maybe
like this forever.
Speaker 1 (46:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 1 (46:51):
No, I mean I love that. It's so funny. So
the other day I was talking to one and I
was like, I'm starting to feel it and he was like,
you know, he was like, I'm like, do you feel
the same thing, And he was like no. I said,
remember when we lived in Portland. We lived in Portland, Oregon,
and he you know, it rained every day literally from
like early December until the middle of May. It literally
(47:12):
rained like every single day. So I was like, whan
you remember the family when we lived in Portland, Like
how when it rained every day, you just it just
didn't feel great. And he was like yeah. I was like,
well that's how I feel, you know this time of
year until probably early February, right or maybe you know,
maybe March. And he was like wow, like you know,
he doesn't feel that at all, and I'm just like, damn, like, yes,
(47:37):
that must be nice. So I'm like, I don't I mean, yeah,
I gotta really make an effort because it does keep
me in the house, like the cold, the dark, you know,
just balling up on the couch, not wanting to get dressed.
Not it's it, but it becomes debilitating because I do
feel like I do miss out on a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2 (47:54):
Yeah, for me to get rid of out of the
house in the winter time, it's a struggling pushed the mirror.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
Yes, yeah, yeah, And I feel bad because I think
people think that I'm being like anti social and it's
just like no, I'm.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
Just a lot of energy.
Speaker 1 (48:11):
Yeah, or like they're taking it personal because I'm not
hanging out with them, and I'm like, well, don't take
a person.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
I'm not hanging out with anyone right good, But yes,
I gotta make more of an effort because it's yes
for sure. And then my mom always said, you know,
if you are having a bad day, just put on
lipstick and I'll make you feel better. So I like
live by that. Okay, yeah, you always have to have
your lips popping.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
I like, you feel bad and so put lipstick on.
And just looking at yourself in the mirror.
Speaker 2 (48:39):
Yeah, and just say I'm beautiful, Like I'm beautiful. I
don't care what you say.
Speaker 3 (48:42):
Affirmation. Yeah, but instead of talking, affirmations will start becoming
a real thing.
Speaker 1 (48:47):
Yes, I do say though. One of my advice is,
like when you're feeling down, is just to like smile
and brend because when the smile, like the endorphins you
get from the smile, like really changes your mood. So
sometimes you just like sit there and just like put
on the big, cheesiest smile and you can like feel
a little bit better, feel little endorphin rush.
Speaker 4 (49:04):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (49:05):
So sure, well you have been amazing, amazing we got
you know, you didn't mind us getting all up into
the curry lea business.
Speaker 3 (49:14):
All right, I'll tell all this, I'll tell all the stuff.
Nobody else wants to talk, I'll talk.
Speaker 2 (49:20):
And if we ever see y'all out, I'm just coming

I'm not family.
Speaker 1 (49:25):
They won't.
Speaker 3 (49:26):
They won't.
Speaker 2 (49:30):
Me and Robert are coming to the family reunion, okay,
because I think it's going to be off the chain.
