After two years, A Witch, A Mystic & A Feminist say goodbye! As we approach our 90th and final episode, we find ourselves reflecting on a transformative experience that began with lengthy practice sessions and cringe-worthy moments. From the early days of refining our podcast process to the poignant decision to pause, each of us shares how this endeavor has enriched our lives with invaluable connections, mentors, and tools for life's challenges. Join us as we recount the emotional rollercoaster of hosting a family-centric podcast and the growth it spurred within us.

Our journey brought close friends and family into the fold, whose contributions added depth and warmth to our episodes. Overcoming initial hesitations about interviews, we recall memorable moments, including an enlightening session with pet psychic Dr. Lisa. Our discussions touch on the unexpected global reach of our podcast and humorous blunders, such as our misunderstandings of the Akashic Records. We highlight how timely guest appearances resonated with our spiritual journeys, pushing us to explore new dimensions of spirituality and personal growth.

Reconnecting with past episodes and treasured memories, we express our heartfelt gratitude to our listeners. As we celebrate the friendships and emotional growth this podcast has ignited, we encourage our audience to support smaller podcasts and find inspiration in our journey. Thank you for being a part of this incredible chapter in our lives!

Speaker 1 (00:09):
well, this is the quietest you guys have been, I
know I know I was just thinking.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
So we I had a question actually we had.
So far we've had 88 publishedepisodes that's correct so it'll
be 90 total.
It'll be 90 total.
Okay, that's what I total.
Okay, that's what I thought,yeah.
So I was like, oh, geez, that'sa lot it is.
That's a lot of like, that's alot of content, that's a lot of
hours and days and a lot of work.
Yeah, I'm like astonished,that's a pretty big number for

(00:38):
podcasts.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
It is yeah, yeah, well, in almost three full
seasons yeah, almost, yeah Well,in almost three full seasons,
almost.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Yeah, so around this time was when we were recording.
Do you remember that, though,we were doing practice
recordings and we're like, oh,and the cringe that we felt and
the fear.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
I don't know if I want to do this Absolutely.
Yeah, I know, wasn't it like?
Oh, go ahead, christy.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
I was just gonna say, and I I just remember like we'd
be on Riverside for like threefour hours at a time, and I
remember, I remember when wewere first like starting.

Speaker 4 (01:23):
we're like oh yeah, it'll only be like an hour, you
know.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Then, like four hours later, we're still like.
We're like did we get it?
Yeah, I don't know, did we getsomething?

Speaker 3 (01:31):
yeah and I just kept thinking, oh god, poor mom,
that's a long one.
And then towards the end, wetried to shorten them Right.
And then it was like, yes, wekept watching the clock.
We're like, okay, we're at thatpoint, okay, so going in the

(01:53):
air swirling.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
We're like, yeah, time to wrap it up, let's go.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
This is, um, wow, such a moment.
I don't.
I don't know about you, ladiesor Lane, if you want to explain
what, uh, what's coming to amoment.
I don't know about you, ladiesor Lane, if you want to explain
what's coming to a pause.
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
So you know, after these last few years or how long
has it been?
Two years, three years, twoyears, two years, almost two
full years we have decided to Idon't want to say end the

(02:32):
podcast, but end the podcast.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Well, our lives have all kind of transformed and
morphed from what they were whenwe started it, and some of us
have gotten a lot busier andtaken on more responsibilities
in our careers, and then, as isalways with momming, you know,

(02:59):
parenting and life and all thathas gotten more.
And so you know, yeah, I thinkI think pausing it is absolutely
right, because I don't thinkany one of us would hesitate to
record again.
You know, um, if we, yeah, if wehad the, the, the content and
the time.
But we've all, like Marlena,we've, we've talked about it,
the four of us that we just wantto put out great content and

(03:23):
we've kind of gotten to astalemate with that lately.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
We're in that hangman .

Speaker 1 (03:32):
That is so true.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Well, and I think for me and on this show we've
talked about it so much theimposter syndrome, right, and we
work through that and we knowit can creep back in and creep
back out, and but for me, lately, for myself, I have felt like
an imposter, if you will,because it's just my focus
hasn't been on my spiritualjourney, on my myself lately,

(04:00):
just with everything going on inmy household the husband, who's
traveling again, and the kidsand just life.
Like you said, christy, it'sjust a lot.
And so when I would come onSundays, when we would record,
I'm always excited because one Iget to see you guys all and
with our busy lives, this hasbeen like our scheduled meeting
visit every month for the week,but sitting down and doing the

(04:24):
topics and really trying to bein it for me, I felt like, okay,
I'm not even in the rightheadspace right now, like I I'm
not there.
So, as excited as I am tointerview our guests and learn,
I just kind of felt like, okay,I feel like I'm just not, I'm
not in that space, I don't feellike I'm there and I don't ever.

(04:46):
I think Lane, you even said itwhen we discussed this like I
don't want to feel like there'sa hidden agenda with the show
and for me right now, it's justnot where my head is.
We know things come and go,just like people do, in and out
of our lives for a reason, andthis show for me really came in
at a time that I needed it.

Speaker 4 (05:07):
I think that happened for all of us.
Yeah exactly At the time that weneeded it, and I'm really proud
of us and you know what we'veput out and really excited about
the people that we've metthroughout the years.
I have now excellent mentorsand friends that I wouldn't have

(05:31):
maybe necessarily met withoutthis podcast, and so that has
been amazing.
That has been amazing.
But also tools to be able todeal with the shit that life
throws at you, because I feellike lately life has just been

(05:52):
throwing out a bunch of shit andI've been able to deal with it
in a way that maybe I hadn'tdealt with it, not maybe I
didn't deal with it like this inthe past.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
A bunch of shit bombs being thrown lately.
Yeah, yeah sure, yeah, sure.

Speaker 4 (06:13):
And also being able to teach what I've learned and
having that opportunity, whichis something that I'm excited
about.
But now, when I meet people andthis is something that I'm
excited about but now, when Imeet people and this is kind of
something that I discussed withyou guys Every time I meet
someone, I feel like there's ahidden agenda oh, I should bring

(06:34):
you on the show or I should dothis or I should do that, and
the show was always in the backof my mind, whereas I really
want to meet people just to meetthem and hear their story and
have those conversations andlearn from them, without being
like hey, do you want to be onmy podcast?
You know, and and not thatthat's a bad thing, you know but
at the same time, like you know, I, I, I don't want that hidden

(06:57):
agenda, right?

Speaker 2 (06:58):
now.

Speaker 3 (06:59):
Right, absolutely, that makes sense, okay.
So well, do we have a favoritemoment we want to discuss?
And I kept saying three yearsas we were talking about this, I
guess it felt like three yearsbecause I keep thinking three
seasons, but you're right, andwe're approaching.
We are on our two yearanniversary of recording for the
first time but released inAugust.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
So just felt like you know, I thought somebody was
going to bring that up, right,you know, like a favorite
episode or whatever.
So I started, I looked at theshow and I was looking at all
the different podcasts and I waslike, all right, I'll write
down the ones that were myfavorite.
Well, I ended up with this longlist.
I was like, yeah, that didn'twork.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
I know because there's so many favorites.
Yeah, yeah For differentreasons, I mean.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
I know for me like.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
I had my entire family like this has been a
family affair.
My mom produces this, vince hasbeen on the show, alexis has
been on the show, my cousins,tony and Ricky have been on the
show, and man to watch theirtransformation has just been, um
, it's been amazing, and to beable to watch that in real time

(08:07):
and and have those conversationswith them has been awesome.
But you know, like there's beenmoments with Danielle
Kettlewell, where and Christy, Idon't know if you remember and
Jamie too, but like we didn'twant to do any interviews, and I
know I didn't want to interviewbecause I was like I don't do
this shit, like I do, like Idon't know how to do this kind

(08:30):
of thing, and so that was one ofthe first interviews where I
was like, oh my God, like one.
The content is amazing, she'sabsolutely amazing.
We nailed this episode, like youknow where, where I was kind of
on a real big high and then wewent to uh, what was that?
Safari place?
Um, when you know, and so I wasstill, so then I was with you

(08:53):
that weekend just kind of ridingthat high.
That was a lot of fun.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yep, that was a lot of fun, yeah, but I mean
definitely the the interviewing.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
I I wasn't.
I wasn't excited about it Idon't think any of us were and
we didn't want to look like, forlack of better words, dumb
right.
We wanted to sound like we knewyou know, we know what we're
talking about and we want tosound professional in our
interview questions.
But yet it was very uh, it wasvery intimidating at first.
Very intimidating.

(09:21):
And for everyone out there.
We did pre-work too, so wewould either go look for guests
or guests, would you know,contact us, and it was like we
set up pre-interviews, you know,we went through the whole thing
so it wasn't just like, oh,let's bring this person on.
So it was a little bit scary, abit scary, and Marlena was.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
That was pretty cool.
Yeah, sorry In the, sorry inthe beginning, everybody was
looking for guests.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
We were looking for guests, but then eventually
guests started asking us to beon the podcast.
So that was.
That was pretty huge.
I was like, really, yeah,people are like we're not
looking for them, they'relooking for us.
That's amazing, that was likewow.
For me, that was a moment ofwow Because again, my bubble
seems to think like we just havethis small group of people who
are loyal listeners, and alwaysin my brain it's like oh, it's
family and friends, you know,but we know our audience had
expanded and that was the momentfor me that was like wow.

(10:13):
We are really like people arelistening, you know.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
I mean, this is, this is insane, it's crazy, it was
like I didn't, I didn't pull thenumbers, but we're in like 72
countries somewhere around therethat have listened to our
podcast.
So you know, that's, that'samazing, that's like mind
blowing to me.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
You would send the statistics.
Every once in a while I'm like,oh my god, that's crazy.
How many times has my momlistened to this?
You know, I don't know shedoesn't listen.
Listen to this, you know Idon't know she doesn't listen.
But the interviews weredefinitely a huge jump for us in

(10:54):
our podcast journey, so got tobe really fun.
We met some great people, forsure.
Yeah, absolutely Memorablemoments, though for me, I kept
thinking about it too, and theones that we've discussed before
that have popped into my head,just moments of like, oh my gosh
, and I'm so, I'm so horriblewith names, so I won't even go
into specific episodes, but justjust things that would happen.

(11:16):
So again, our pet psychic andour pet communicator.
And again, I'm just horriblewith names right now Dr Lisa.
Yes, I'm like drawing a blank,but just those moments where
things happened that were veryyou know people talk about.
Well, you can explain thingsaway.
I can't explain that, you know,and I'm a believer anyway, so

(11:38):
I'm not going to try to make itscience, you know, but it's it
really.
Just those kinds of momentsreally kind of blew me away.
And then, of course, learningabout new things.
I had net.
We remember Akashic records,like me, I remember Christy and
we're like is it a record labelcompany?

(11:58):
What are we doing?

Speaker 4 (11:59):
Are we in a library?
I thought it was a lawyer thing, actually, when Marlena sent
the text.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
I was like is this?
The wrong group.
Did she mean to send this toher law group?
What's the Akashic Records Like?
I kept thinking she's pullingrecords.
Never heard of them.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
And I was like yeah, and I was like am I finally
going to get my records?
This is amazing.
Like all I had to do was be ona podcast.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
And like they came in , here you are, you're recording
with akashic records now Ialmost spent my.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
That would be a good record label.
That would be that would be.

Speaker 3 (12:35):
I almost spent my coffee out on my monitor I
seriously thought I'm like shemust have sent this to the wrong
group.
They have to go pull records inthe akic records.
I don't know what this is, yeah.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
No, but I felt like a lot of our guests and a lot of
the topics came at the righttime too.
So you know, just like withthis podcast, the guests that
would come on and those topicsand and the things that they
were talking about, you know,really hit home in that moment.
And so you know, I'm I'm reallylooking forward to kind of

(13:12):
digging in more um and andmaking more time for my
spirituality um and and learningthings and kind of focused,
because my focus is, you know,was limited.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
Yeah, that's a good point, cause I I'm looking
forward to actually taking someof the things from our guests
and like trying them, because Ialso didn't feel like,
personally, I had enough time toimplement a lot of things that
we learned from you know, likethings that resonated, and I'm
like, oh, yeah, I'd really liketo do that, you know, I'd really
.
And then I'd have every intentto do so and it would be like,

(13:52):
okay, prepping for the next guy,like okay, moving on, you know,
and so I'd be like I'll write alittle note and I'm like, okay,
like, you know, the moon, likeall the moons, so I'm like moon
stuff.
I'm like, uh, yep, okay,someday, someday we'll do that.
And then I'd be like my nextthing, like, and so it was just,
it was it became like, well,I'm going to practice these at

(14:12):
some point.
I'm gonna, you know, dive intothem at some point.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Um, and now I'm excited that, like I'm going to
be able to do that and hopefullyfind a modality that works.
I'm also very proud of ourepisodes where we addressed
community I don't want to saypolitical, but lifestyle.
We've, you know, we had Haydenon here their journey.
We also talked about abortion.
That was a very, you know,moving episode after they
overturned Roe v Wade.
When that happened, I thinkthat impacted us all.
But those episodes really wereraw and open and honest.

(14:48):
I revealed things that not thewhole world knew, even certain
family members, and I'm veryproud how vulnerable we've
allowed ourselves to be with theaudience, and I remember we
would start recordings and we'relike vulnerability Okay, we got
to be vulnerable, like it's itcan be a lot Like I'm sitting
here talking to you know, mydearest friends in the world,

(15:11):
but in the end it's going to beput out for the world.
So, I'm very proud of thoseepisodes and tackling difficult
topics sometimes that are hardfor people to talk about.
So those were those really holddear to my heart too, the ones
where we we tackled the bigthings.
Yeah, same, same.

Speaker 4 (15:33):
And oh my God, oh my God, and just it's, it's weird
that it's, I don't want to saycoming to an end, but I mean
that we're taking thisindefinite break.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
It's possible.
Yeah, it feels right, I mean.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
It does it, does it does feel right.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
I think we've all kind of started feeling it in
the last few months just becauseof life and things, and I think
the timing is right.
You know I'm sad because Iwon't get to see you guys every
other week, but hopefully we canstill schedule a FaceTime or
something where we can, you know, catch up.
But, um, yeah, I it's.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
It's just the right moment for us, yeah, so and I
think this podcast has given useach of us what was needed right
.
Given us each of us what wasneeded Right.
I mean, I think that I'vegained so much from from being a
part of this podcast and, uh,towards the end here it's.
It's kind of seemed like we werejust going through the motions,

(16:35):
right, and that's when you knowthat it's like, okay, I think
it's time for us to take a stepback.
But yeah, everything that thispodcast has given me, but yeah,
everything that this podcast hasgiven me, I mean, you don't
even know right how much it'sgiven to me.
So I'm going to stop rightthere, for right now, I'm going
to stop talking real quick, but,yeah, I think the timing is

(16:58):
right.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yeah, and I think we have accomplished what we set
out to do.
And I think I think we haveaccomplished what we set out to
do, and I think each one of ushad some idea that maybe this
would propel us into our ownunique pathways, Right, Um, and
you know, I think we all hopedthat.
You know that we would all findthose things, and I think we

(17:22):
have.
I think, so I don't have any, Idon't know.
I don't have any regrets or youknow like I don't know, we
succeeded at everything we setout to do.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
I'm really proud of us.
But you're right, I remember wedid talk about in the beginning
that this was a stepping stonefor everybody right Into
whatever direction.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
They, they, they were meant to go right and I think
that that's really held true,right, yeah, yeah for sure I
know, for me, when Marlena cameacross with this totally crazy
idea and it felt and it feltlike so out of the blue, like
where the hell did this comefrom?
Like you know, okay, but she'sbeen my bestest friend since

(18:03):
junior high, so if she's goingto do it, I'm going to do it
with her.
You know, of course, I meanthat's, that's not a question.
But I know the timing for mewas a time in my life where I
felt very um and I'm sure all ofus in our own way but very
disconnected, very um upset withthe world and life.
And we all know it came after,uh, I had lost, I had lost my

(18:23):
mother-in-law, and it was verytough and very hard for me to
accept the foreverness of it.
And this really came in at atime when I needed to find more,
because I was feeling like Iwas such in a hole and not sure
how I was going to get out of it.
And, of course, marlena comeswith this idea.
I'm like, oh OK, well, thissounds fun and at least I'll be

(18:47):
talking to you every Sunday forhowever long while we do this.
But it really pulled me out ofa bad place because I just felt
so empty at that time.
So it really did help me and,of course, I've always been on a
path of trying to like I wantto meditate, I want to feel more
connected, I want to feel youknow more that there's more in

(19:08):
this life other than just thisday to day stuff that we have to
do.
And I know that there's moreand there's a connection.
And I've struggled with youknow my spirituality and God in

(19:29):
general at times, you know.
So this really helped me getthrough.
Sorry, a lot of dark places.

Speaker 4 (19:40):
I think we've all been there, jay, you know we're.
And again, I mean this camewhen each one of us needed it in
a certain way, but we allneeded it.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
Yeah, thank you for your crazy ideas, marlena, and
thank you, mom, for all the timeand effort you've put into this
, because we all know this'renot.
You know, this isn't somethingwe're being paid for.
Mom's not being paid for this.
This is on her own time and herown.
You know when she can do thisand it's a lot of work.
So you know, thank you.
And, of course, christy, thankyou for all your contributions

(20:16):
and helping me out withinterviews sometimes, and you
know doing the things.
So it's been a, it's been ajourney and I just thank you so
much for it.
Yeah, yeah, when Marlena cameto me and told me about this and
something fun to do in yourspare time?

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yeah, can you.
Can you produce and edit it?
And I'm like I know nothingabout a podcast.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
We're on the same page.

Speaker 1 (20:42):
I was like, well, we're on the same page, exactly.
I was like, well, it'stechnical, so maybe, but
honestly, at that time I hadretired and I didn't know what I
was supposed to do, right?
So I was really in a funk.
So for her to ask me that andto give me some kind of

(21:07):
something, to do on a dailybasis.
Plus, I had just had my kneereplaced right so just a few
months before, and the rehabwasn't going well.
So I truly was in a funk.
I was like, okay, I'll try it,but but yeah, it just lifted me
up to to the point where I could.
I could feel good about myselfagain, right and and and, of
course, the episodes, right, the, the content, you know, the,

(21:28):
the meaning behind this podcastwas just was exactly what I
needed, you know, and it openedmy eyes and opened my mind to a
lot of things, that that I knew,but also a lot of stuff that I
just had no idea.
You know that I was going to beinvolved in somehow in my life.
So it's been, it's been a realhonor to do this with you,

(21:51):
ladies, so I am going to missyou all.

Speaker 3 (21:55):
Yeah, you're going to make me cry again.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
Well, don't worry, mom.
You'll still see me tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (22:03):
And Marlena, I'll see you after this.
Can't get rid of her.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (22:10):
So to the listeners, like this isn't like we're
breaking up or anything, we arestill the best of friends, oh
yeah.
No, not at all, we're justgoing to support each other off
the air, yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
I'll take the show Outside the show yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (22:26):
And it you know, but it is.
We're all in different parts.
I mean, obviously you threelive closer than I do, so we
definitely will have to maketime to catch up together every
once in a while.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
But if we could, if we could make time for the
podcast, we can make time forthat.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
Yeah, and I still believe we all need to go to
Sedona together because I'm theone that needs to go.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
That is, it is Absolutely.
We still need to do a Sedonatrip.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
Okay, so you guys want to hear a story?
Yes, so I'm going to just gooff topic real quick.
Mom, you heard the storybecause I called you after it
happened.
So, before I moved back to myhouse, I was driving down the
street and I was going to workand I was talking to my mom and
I talk to my mom every morningas I'm driving to work and I'm

(23:16):
driving and I'm still on mystreet and I'm about to turn and
I see this woman in a t-shirtand gray leggings and dark hair,
hair in a ponytail, and she hastwo corgis.
One of the corgis has a liketeal green collar and is wearing
a t-shirt, a doggy t-shirt, andthen the other corgi has a pink

(23:41):
collar, and so I was like oh,corgis, that's what went through
my mind.
And so I drive to work and mymom and I hang up before I
actually get to the parkinggarage.
And then I get to the parkinggarage and all of a sudden I see
this woman and going back tothe original woman, she had

(24:03):
already crossed the street, soshe's walking away from me, so
all I see is her back and thetwo corgis.
So, as I'm coming up to theparking garage I'm grabbing my
access card and I look up andthere's this woman with dark
hair and a ponytail, a t-shirt,gray leggings, two corgis, one

(24:25):
with a teal, green collar,wearing a t-shirt and another
one with a pink collar.
And I was like oh, corgis.
And I was like no, no, hold on,hold on.
And I was like deja vu.
And I was like, yes, this justhappened, but like an hour ago
in Livermore.
I'm now in San Jose, I'm seeingthe same fucking thing.

(24:45):
And so I just called my mom andI was like mom, you're never
going to believe this.
I was like I think I jumpedtimelines, or like timelines are
collapsing, or it's a glitch inthe matrix, or you know.
So these are things that I likereally pay attention to now
that maybe I, you know, in thevery beginning, you know it was
like, oh well, you know that waskind of cool.

(25:07):
Now I'm like okay, what doesthat mean?
You know, I'm wanting to diveinto it a little bit more and
figure it out, which I stillhaven't figured it out.

Speaker 3 (25:14):
I was going to say did you dive into it more?

Speaker 4 (25:17):
Cause that's cool, it was I mean, but I was just like
okay you know it, it it was thesame woman, it was the same
dogs, like even the markings onone of the dogs was exactly the
same.
You know, the other one waswearing a t-shirt.
So I'm like, you know, and itwas the same color t-shirt, like
it was just.
Everything was the same.
It was the same person doingthe same thing, but somewhere

(25:38):
else, right, you know?
there was no way like, you know,if I'm driving around town or
whatever and I see someonewalking their dog and go to the
grocery store, jump back in thecar.
I see them again, but they're,you know, in another part of the
town because they've beenwalking.
Can't walk from Livermore toSan Jose in an hour.
It took me an hour to drivethere.

(25:59):
I'm like, where did you comefrom?
So, yeah, yeah.
So I'm like, okay, let mechange the topic, because you
know I got to tell you guys onemore of my crazy stories before
we, before we end all this sowell yeah, you better still text
us with your crazy stories,cause that is for sure, for sure
, for sure, yeah, for sure, forsure yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
Yeah, that was awesome, I loved it.
I was like, oh my God, youjumped timelines.

Speaker 4 (26:31):
I was like mom, mom, I know that you're doing
something, but stop, I got totalk to you.
I have to tell you whathappened to me.

Speaker 3 (26:36):
That is so cool.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
You definitely jumped timelines Like, like you said,
glitch in the matrix, somethinglike, yeah, whatever it was you
know timeline collapse I'm notsure, but you know, like some of
the Mandela effects and stufflike that that have been
happening, like do you guysremember Richard Simmons dying
before?

Speaker 3 (26:54):
like this past few weekends- Like there was stories
that he had died and he wasn'tdead.

Speaker 1 (27:01):
I thought he was, didn't he just die?
See, that happens to me a lot.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
He just died.
I already thought that he did,but.

Speaker 4 (27:07):
I already thought he was dead.
I'm telling you, like BobBarker died 15 times.
I'm telling you.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
I'm like wait, I'm so confused, he just died.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
See, but I'm in a timeline where he had died
already, and so I'm like againthe Mandela effect.
Um.

Speaker 3 (27:25):
so, yes, I think I remember stories coming out that
people thought he was deadbecause he so went into like he
left.
He just left the industry leftthe spotlight and people thought
he was dead.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
No, but I I swear there was like news stories
before, Like I swear I have readthat, Like I re I didn't
realize he died just recently.

Speaker 3 (27:48):
I want to be in your guys's timeline.

Speaker 4 (27:50):
This looks interesting.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
Multiple times.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
Speaking of timelines and like weird shit.
So, since moving back home, um,I, there's a lot of times where
I'm walking and like through,through my house and I'm like I,
I don't know which house I'm in, and you know, I know that
happens when you move and stufflike that.
But and maybe it's because I,you know.
And then here's my logicalbrain, let me, let me find the

(28:17):
real reason behind this.
You know not but, you know, I,because I lived here before and
then, you know, have been gonefor a few years and now coming
back.
There's a lot of things that alot of times where I'm not sure
where I'm walking, like if I'min the hallway of my mom's house
or the hallway of this house,and you know, so I'm, I'm, I'm

(28:38):
feeling very weird lately whereI'm just like, oh my God, I
don't know what's going on.
But also, since moving back,I'm finding a lot of things from
the past are coming back intomy life.
So and there's one situationthat I don't want to really talk
about on the air because, well,I don't know what's going to

(29:00):
happen so but with Vince, vincehas gotten back into karate and
he's been going back to theoriginal karate school that
Alexis had went to and is alsovery heavily back in contact
with his original originalinstructor and with Alexis.

(29:21):
Alexis was like I feel like I'ma child back in my childhood
room kind of situation.
And then there's been things inmy life where I feel like
things are just coming backBecause the situations that we

(29:42):
were going through in the pastagain I have tools to be able to
deal with some of those things,or understanding that maybe
that's not as important.
I'm not putting as much stockin it as I did in the past.
So yeah, but I'm going throughit.
I feel very weird.
I feel like I'm constant.

(30:02):
My life is vertigo, almostwhere.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
I'm just like I don't know what's going on.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
I don't know what's up and what's down and where I'm
at and what's going on.
So, yeah, that's uh that'sinteresting.
Yeah, so I'll keep you guysposted, I can.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
I can see how yeah, I can see how that might happen
too, and a place holds so manymemories and so many you know
like you, just sometimes youunderestimate.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
Well, I mean, I feel like I went into a portal almost
like you know and went back intime, but then not.
So it's just yeah, it's reallyweird, it's weird.

Speaker 3 (30:39):
It's weird.

Speaker 4 (30:40):
Well, good for Vince, though I'm glad he's like
getting back into all that andor getting back with his
original, original instructor.
That's awesome, that's good forhim, that's his thing and for

(31:01):
him, and without bringing Alexisalong for the ride and putting
pressure on them to be able todo things Again.
We're doing things differentlythis time around, and so it
almost feels like a secondchance to be able to, maybe some
of the wrongs, make those right.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
I don't know, We'll see, we'll see what the future
holds.
I love it.
Yeah, lots to think about, okay, okay, I guess Is that it.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
I'm like okay, oh man .
Well, I'm just going to say onelast thing, um that this
podcast allowed me toreintroduce myself, and I'm not
even going to be able to say it.

Speaker 4 (31:51):
I get what you're saying.
Yeah, because this podcasthelped me find myself.
Mm-hmm, you know, I think thatI didn't know who I was, and I
still don't.
But you know, I've also foundthe beauty in that, you know,
figuring out who I am, and thenall of a sudden, like things
change in your life and so youknow it's a constant thing.

(32:15):
But I didn't know who I was,and now I have a better idea of
who I am now.
So.
So thank you, ladies, and thankyou so much for coming on this
journey with me.

Speaker 3 (32:28):
And uh, feelings, ew with me and uh feelings, ew,
we're back to day onevulnerability.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
I know gross, I'm just kidding, but it's been
amazing watching the three ofyou grow right from the very
first episode, well, even priorto when we were doing the test
episode.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
Yes, oh, boy, oh boy.

Speaker 1 (32:56):
And how much you guys have grown, you know,
spiritually and in every way.
And it's just been, it's beenamazing to watch.
Should we put out some?

Speaker 4 (33:04):
of those videos.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
Oh God.

Speaker 2 (33:07):
I think they're archived, actually they are oh
darn Too bad, too bad, oh darn,too bad.
No, yeah, too bad.

Speaker 3 (33:17):
They're in the vault.

Speaker 4 (33:19):
I mean I do have some videos where Christy and I we
were doing a recording I thinkit was Women in Competition
episodes and your computer fell.
We're like whoa.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Yeah, I remember that one.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah, but you, this was justalso unexpected and I am so
grateful for it.
So, um, I'm grateful for thepeople that listened and that
hyped us up.
We have a lot of hype peopleout there, um, and you know,

(33:56):
whenever you're starting apodcast, like many other people
in this world, you just you justdon't know and um, but there
was such a loyal group oflisteners and people who just
really believed in what we weredoing and were encouraging and
loved us, and I don't know if Iwould have been able to see that
before before actually being onthis podcast, and I see it now

(34:21):
and I see it abundantly.
So, thank you, I already cried.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
She's like I'm not doing that again.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
You just had like an allotment of one, you're just
like the audience hasn't figuredout that I'm the first crier by
now you haven't been listening,so I'm usually the one to start
crying first.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
You know what this podcast has also taught me to
quit laughing at you when you're, I'm usually the one that
starts crying first.

Speaker 4 (34:54):
Yeah, but you know what this podcast has also
taught?

Speaker 3 (34:59):
me to quit laughing at you when you're the first one
to cry.

Speaker 4 (35:01):
Well, good, I'm glad that's awesome and I say that
and everybody's like yeah,marlene is a bitch, but no,
jamie and I growing up it waswhenever we'd be hanging out all
of a sudden, you know, she'djust start crying.
We'd get all mushy andeverything, but she'd be the
first one to cry and then we'dand then I'd laugh.

Speaker 3 (35:22):
I blame my mother.
She's the same way.

Speaker 4 (35:26):
And I do the same thing.

Speaker 3 (35:29):
I love it too and I love that I have that
characteristic of hers.
But as also growing up and mymom would be like the first one
to cry, and I'd look at her tobe like mom, of course, you're
the first one to cry Like.
I mean, and now here I am, soI'm eating my words, yeah, and
I'm okay with it.
I'm a crier, I'm okay with it.
I'm okay with that.

Speaker 4 (35:50):
I love that.

Speaker 3 (35:51):
I love that about you , thanks, but yes, I said it
before and I just I feel like Ineed to add you know that I love
you, ladies, and so much, andjust thank you for the
opportunity.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
Because otherwise, it won't work.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
Yeah, we won't even talk about the IT mess before we
finally nailed it down.
No, exactly, and nothing onmom's behalf.
Just all of us in fourdifferent locations.

Speaker 4 (36:44):

very interesting to play on.
I'm like Marlena, did you getthe right time?

(37:59):
She goes oh my God, okay,they're in, they're in Australia

So that means this Okay, yeah,it was like a lot of math.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
There was a lot of math.

Speaker 3 (38:11):
I don't know how the math was not mapping.

Speaker 4 (38:16):
Yeah, I fucked up the times a number of times.
I'm like okay, how do Icalculate Australia to

another small podcast that youresonate with and just show them
some love and support themuntil maybe we are back for a

(39:42):
couple episodes.
We don't know, we don't knowwhat the future holds.

Speaker 4 (39:45):

I learned how to edit .
You guys want to record again.
Learn how to produce now.

Speaker 4 (40:18):
I'll need to retire from my job first before we can
do that.

Speaker 3 (40:22):
There we go, yes.

Speaker 4 (40:23):
We've had a hard enough time trying to schedule
with our work schedules, butsometimes you got to.
you know like we don't get paidfor this, so we got to be able
to pay our bills schedules.
So you know, but sometimes yougotta.
You know like we don't get paidfor this, so we gotta be able
to pay our bills too.
So, but also I see somepositive things for all of us in
our professional lives as wellas our spiritual lives.

(40:44):
And yeah, did you pull cardstoday?
I did not, but I got a newtarot deck.

Speaker 3 (40:51):
Did you pull cards today?
I did not, but I got a newtarot deck.

Speaker 4 (40:53):
I'm like I got a new tarot deck.
It's everyday witch, um, andit's the Rider Waite deck, but
um, with really cool witch arton it.
So, um, so, yeah, so like,here's the four of wands.
It's pretty.

Speaker 2 (41:13):
Ooh, okay, very pretty.

Speaker 4 (41:14):
Ooh, I like them as I just start pulling cards.
Here's the strength card.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
Oh nice.

Speaker 4 (41:23):
Let's see here Ooh, the seven of pentacles.
Oh, those are pretty, yeah, soI'm really excited about this
deck?
Oh, here's the full.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
Oh, I love that, that's cool.

Speaker 4 (41:40):
Do you see the hawk in there, mom?
That's awesome.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
No, because I don't have my glasses, hang on.
Keep on holding it up there on.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (41:53):
when I saw that, because I, I mean, these just
came in yesterday.
So when I when I saw that, Ijust started laughing and I was
like, oh, that's me, and and thehawk um oh, I love it.
So I'm like oh, I got a newdeck though.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
I got dowsing rods.

Speaker 4 (42:13):
I'm like, what am I going to do?
I have a pendulum here.
You know, when I bought thisdeck, vince was like don't you
have a ton of decks?
I said, yeah, but a lot of themare in boxes and I can't find
them.
So, and I said, and this is anew one?
I was like, look, it's witches.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
I couldn't find them, so I just got a new one.

Speaker 4 (42:37):
Well, no, I mean, I have a tarot deck in my work bag
.
I have a tarot deck in my purse.
I have a tarot deck in mybedroom.
I have another tarot decksitting here at my desk.
I mean, it's not like I don'thave tarot decks around, but you
don't have that one.

Speaker 3 (42:55):
And now you do.
I didn't have that one, yes.

Speaker 4 (42:57):
And again, the majority of my tarot decks are
in a box in the garage right now, so I need to go locate them.
And I was like I need to go tothe crystal store because I want
to get a crystal for my niece.
And I want to get her somesmoky quartz which I know I have
a ton of in a box in my garage.

(43:17):
So you know, first I'm I'mgoing to ask the pendulum where
that is, um, and you know.

Speaker 2 (43:24):
but but here's the thing I may just need to go to
the crystal shop just because Iwas, I was going to say maybe,
maybe you can't find thembecause you need to go to the
crystal shop just because I was,I was going to say maybe, maybe
you can't find them because youneed to go to the crystal shop.
I mean, that's girl logic, Ifeel like.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Makes sense to me Go to the crystal shop yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
So, yeah exactly so.
But if you don't want to go tothe crystal shop, I have I do
have some smoky quartz, so youcan come over here.
Come over here.

Speaker 3 (43:58):
Oh, she's laying cards out, shh.

Speaker 4 (44:03):
Quiet, you Quiet, okay.
So well, hold on, you know.
So, basically, the way I'mseeing this is we've all kind of
found what we need collectivelyand now it's time for us to

(44:31):
find what we need individually.
And that's definitely comingthat contentment with the Nine
of Cups and I flipped over thecard or the deck and we've given
so much of ourselves toeveryone else over the last

(44:51):
couple of years you know our,our knowledge and whatnot that
it's time for us to start, um,looking more within and focusing
on on us.
So that's, uh, that's what thecards are telling me right now.

Speaker 1 (45:04):
And uh, that's beautiful, so so which?
Cards are they?

Speaker 2 (45:09):
Which ones were they?
Which ones, which ones so?

Speaker 4 (45:14):
we have the nine of pentacles here.
Nice, Okay, you got yourglasses on, mom.
I'm like can you see I'm therenow I'm trying to get it to
focus.
There we go.
So the nine of pentacles, wehave the queen of pentacles and
then we have the nine of cups.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
Wow, wow, nines.

Speaker 4 (45:33):
Right, that's the end of a cycle, the end of is yep,
yeah, and then we have the sixof wands, which in that is a
celebration, you know, and socelebrating, but you know,
celebrating this end.

Speaker 1 (45:47):
Wow, I think that's beautiful.

Speaker 3 (45:50):
You can't make that up, you just can't make that up.
No, I think that's a beautifulway to wrap this up.
I really do yeah absolutely.
I think so too, yeah, and Iknow we all have our own
imposter syndrome, but, lane,you've really come into your own
with this stuff, so yeah keepbelieving in yourself.
