Our president of the podcast network, Morgan.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
Has the first part of question, I'm just gonna sit here.
Is that?
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (01:09):
We love it.
Speaker 6 (01:10):
So we had Ian on the Bobby Cast probably a
few months ago now, and I wanted to tell him
this story, but there just was no good moment. But
I have terrible flight, anxiety, terrible and the worst flight
of my life, like the worst turbulence I've ever experienced
in my life. I happened to be playing long Haul. Really,
(01:32):
oh gosh, I wanted to repeat.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I mean, the turbulence was so bad.
Speaker 6 (01:35):
I've never had it like this before where people were
screaming around me. So I literally I have a like
a playlist of slow, calming songs I listened to.
Speaker 5 (01:45):
I have a process hate to fly.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Morgan's prepared for her flight anxiety, but.
Speaker 6 (01:51):
I'm white knuckling the arm bress and it's like.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
You're like, please take me to Wyoming.
Speaker 6 (02:02):
Please give me off this plane and to Montana or Wyoming.
But anyway, that just made me laugh, like seeing him
and knowing that people have listened to his music and
probably the most bizarre setting every circumstance. But having you
wifey here, I'm just curious knowing how that song is
impected me and helped me through the tough times. How
(02:26):
is it to have love songs written about you? And
when did you first hear Long Haul? Because that really
blew up? Yeah, no, that song did blow up, and
it's beautiful. Somebody described it as Ian's voice is different,
you know, than everyone else's. And somebody said Ian's voice
is like winning through a canyon, and that's how that
song reminds me. But I mean, I will say Ian
(02:52):
is the best husband ever and does tell me that
he writes. So I mean he's literally sending me a
song Caroline that we were talking about.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Earlier, Old Caroline.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
Yeah, I know. So he went hard, he did.
Speaker 7 (03:03):
He was on the road this past weekend without me
three days. Sano was literally Valentine's Day night.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
He had to leave, and.
Speaker 7 (03:11):
Then I was going to go out on the road
and he had his writers Jeremy Spielman and Phil Billy
out with him. So I was like, oh, I guess
I'm not going hanging out with you Valentines. So I
think he had to like make up for it. But yeah, no,
I think my favorite Ian munsick love songs thus far
(03:32):
as Me against the Mountain because that was kind of
our like wedding song. So every time I hear that song,
I picture us being in Paradise Valley.
Speaker 6 (03:41):
So the first time he plays you those love songs,
is it for you to listen as the wife or
as the manager or both?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Great question? Yeah, which had do you put on?
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Probably manager first?
Speaker 7 (03:52):
To be honest, I'm pretty blunt, like, if I don't
like it, I'll be like.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Thanks for writing his love song, but it sucks.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (03:58):
No, I would probably tell him because at the end
of the day, other people have to hear this. But no, Luckily,
every song that I think he's written in with me
and mind has turned out. We've put out and it's
done well.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
You're a great muse.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
If you are.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna go.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Play the actual calls now, Okay, I love it.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Okay, I have one question too, to kind of payback
off this. Sorry to get into your sexy life, but
joab are like make out to the songs?
Speaker 7 (04:29):
No God, so Ian will tell you, and this is
messed up with me. But I hear his voice so often.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
It's not the voice that turns you on. No, I
mean it turns you on all the time.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Yeah, it does.
Speaker 7 (04:44):
I mean, especially when he's performing live. He's the greatest
live performer, and that's probably when he is hottest to me.
But I hear him all the time, literally, whether it's
demos or his studio is under our bedroom. So like,
I hear him on repeat, fixing things and.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
You know whatever else. So I I like quietness.
Speaker 7 (05:11):
Yeah yeah, okay, but yeah, or maybe something else.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
But maybe a little R and B.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Yeah yeah, I'm into R and B.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
But I like a mood.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
I I mean, not to get down with sex life,
but like I'm down very QUICKI and all that. But
if we're gonna do like a session, like I need
a mood, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Do you need a mood?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:31):
I mean I I just have to be in the right.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Bo I know.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
And with all this, that's the thing about women's like
guys are ready all the time, but like girls, like
especially you, like you're managing him.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
In my mind's running a mile a minute. So I
really have to be like chilled out.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah, yes, yes, I feel you belt yes, yes, but
you look at hot all the time.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I'm sure it's it's I'm sure it's hard.
Speaker 7 (05:53):
I'm rough, Like I'm showing up to freaking label meetings
and sweatpants hairing a butt and I'm like, hey.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Guys, I'm here. You got me be glad?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
So okay, here's another burden question.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Hi Caroline and Caroline, here's my question to you both.
You are both working mamas. What biggest piece of advice
do you have for other working mamas to keep everything
in as much balance as possible because it's not easy.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Amen.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
I would say it takes a freaking squad to raise
a child. When you're a working mom, you know who's.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
On your squad.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
So my mom helps a lot.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
She actually has Crawford right now, and then I've had
a nanny for the past two years. But I'm starting
to look into schools and things like that because he
just turned four.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
But you know, just.
Speaker 7 (06:49):
Having people that you can rely on to help because
you can't do it all and the mom guilt is real,
but it's also good for your kid to get a
little separation too, you know hard.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
I know, Yeah, I love that you guys tote him
around with you though. Yeah, I think that's so great.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
Yeah, he comes everywhere, but like I said, I'll have
a babysitter come out on the road, so because I
don't want ice am working, you know, making sure everything's
running smooth. So you know, Ian doesn't play until ten
o'clock at night sometimes and he goes to bet a
six thirty. But the fact that he can come to
soundcheck and run around and mess with the man guys
(07:28):
like to be a part of it all. He's a
part of it and he feels it. And you know,
he doesn't think he's missing anything.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
You're keeping him on a schedule on the road.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Get him a bit at six thirty, Caroline, Yeah, what
you are, superwoman?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Senny goes to bed so late.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Oh my gosh, you keep her.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I mean, you keep this schedule. Look at you running
at all, even when you're managing Ean on the road.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
He's got his six thirty bedtime.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
He does go, girl.
Speaker 7 (07:51):
I mean there's sometimes like if something cool is happening,
he stays up. I don't make him miss out on
some big stuff. But yeah, no, schedule is key, especially
when we're in twenty million different time zones. And I'm
about to take him to Australia because we're doing the
CMC Rocks. So we're gonna see how he does.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
He's gonna do great. Yeah, he's gonna do so great,
I think.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
So we'll see.
Speaker 7 (08:10):
The plane ride is long, but he's I mean, he's
flown from you know, to California many times, and that's
cross country.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
I mean, we'll see.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
He probably loves feeling though, like he's in the pack.
You know, he doesn't get left behind like Mom and
dadd are doing all these things going to work, but
like he gets to come like that's so cool.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
Yeah, he's very aware of like his people and like
he's like if someone's missing of his people, he's like
where are they?
Speaker 6 (08:35):
You know?
Speaker 4 (08:35):
And I will say one more thing to wrap this
up though to how I feel too, how to manage
it all, And we were talking about this. I feel
like you have to have support as a as a
woman who is working, Like especially like you're supporting your husband,
you're managing him, he's the artist. I have an artist
husband too. It's like it's so much when you're with
an artist, Like you have to have a place for
you to go, take care of yourself mentally, like having
(08:56):
a great girlfriend group like you were.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Saying, you have a text show, you can eat, jump anything.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
Yeah, I have a girl group and they're all of
my best friends and they're in the all in the
music business, so they understand. And you know, we literally
say anything and everything at all times a day.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
You got to get it out, and we get it out.
Speaker 7 (09:14):
And you know, there's always somebody there to respond to
or meet up with. You know, obviously it's harder as
we've gotten older, It's like we're used to being like, hey,
let's go get a like get a drink in two hours,
and now we're like planning things out a month.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
A month out. But we luckily have the group and
group chat. So they keep me saying.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
I think I'm support like mom, support friends, like community.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
That is so key what you said.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
I'm I mean you can talk to your husband all
you want, you know, but there's something about.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
A girl friend.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yeah, totally yep.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Felt and a good therapy group. I love some therapy.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Yeah, and I have done some stuff out on a
therapy on a floor. I'm my gosh, thank god that
got out there.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
No, it doesn't to learn side me anymore.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
No, once you get it out, you just feel waitless
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Yeah, so it's important.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
And yeah, just not feeling like you have to keep
it all in and like hide all the feelings that
you're feeling because you're having mom It's not that you
have like everyone goes through mom guilt. Then you got
why stuff going on. It's just like so much you
need to be able to get it out.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
Yep. You have to accept for in silence and then yeah,
you'll explode and then you'll end up taking it out
on people that don't serve it, and then that creates issues,
and you don't want more issues.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Exactly, so get it out.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Okay, we got another burning question, Caroline.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Do any of the things that used to upset you
a few years ago, like before COVID, matter at all today?
Speaker 5 (10:50):
What has changed?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Good, Yeah, that's a good question. I would say I
am a lot calmer that I was.
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Pre COVID or even you know, COVID was a stressful time,
so I wouldn't say maybe because I had just had
a baby, but so my anxiety was a little wild.
But I would say, now, man, there's always something and
you just got to get through it. And I think
(11:23):
I'm a lot calmer. And you know, everyone has an opinion,
especially in the music industry. So you know, if one
person doesn't like the way ian's voices or doesn't think
this is a hit, and then you know another person's
gonna love it. And generally it's yeah, if the industry
(11:44):
hates it, the fans love it. So I'm gonna bet
on the fans generally, So you know, I don't stress
too hard. When I used to care a lot about
you know what everyone thought.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Yeah, isn't that a real I think maybe you just
have to get broken down enough to realize you can't
care about what everyone thinks. I used to care so
much about everyone thought to the point it was like debilitating. Yeah,
and then finally so much stuff happens, so many bombs
hit you.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
That you're like, well, I guess I can't care.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I know, you're just kind of numb to it.
Speaker 7 (12:14):
And you're like, well if I freak out, nobody's gonna
get anywhere.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
So right, Yeah, yeah, you always have the freak.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
Out moments, like they're sometimes needed, but yeah, right now,
Like I mean, this past week, I there was a
lot of stuff in my world going on, and I
was just like, you know what, I'm just gonna get
through it because I've done it before.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
So well and probably though learning for me, it's like
learning how to really trust my intuition, you know, and
really how to trust like what feels in alignment for
like me, my family, my life. Like I feel like,
do you feel you've gotten to that place now where
it's like you really know what's good for your family,
for your life, for Ian's career, Like you can feel
(12:56):
it now you don't have to like worry about what
everyone else is thinking about it totally.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
Yeah, like I was saying on the podcast, I mean,
I think one of my strongest assets is I have
just a really strong intuition. If I go against my gut,
that's when I start to feel sick. It's like I
got a lead with what I'm feeling. You know, Yes,
do you feel like that's God?
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I think.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
I mean in a lot of times I have to
check myself and be like, Okay, let me feel what
I'm feeling and then talk to Him about.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
It and then like move forward. But because you don't
want to just.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
Always think on your own, you need to rely on him.
But I do have a strong intuition and I'm thankful
for it.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
How does God speak to you? Like, what does that
feel like? How do you know when it's God talking?
Speaker 5 (13:45):
I don't know, if you know. I think it's another feeling.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
I think it's more just as long as you're in
communication with him, he's got you.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
You know, you don't have to be like, oh.
Speaker 7 (13:57):
I saw a sign from God and this is the
right TOI like there's a butterfly, you know. I think
as long as you're communicating with him.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
He's going to make sure you're taken care.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Of, like he as long as he's like at the forefront,
and you're like keeping him in mind and like doing
it with him in your heart.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Yeah, like guiding the way.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
I love that, Caroline.
Speaker 3 (14:19):

Speaker 4 (14:37):

and you're doing all three of them, and it's your family.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
It is you know.
Speaker 5 (14:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (14:44):
But hey, like we said, it's hard work pays off
and he's got to keep going.
Speaker 4 (14:50):

than the people that you love.

But I hear him all the time, literally, whether it's
demos or his studio is under our bedroom. So like,
I hear him on repeat, fixing things and.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
You know whatever else. So I I like quietness.
Speaker 7 (05:11):
Yeah yeah, okay, but yeah, or maybe something else.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
But maybe a little R and B.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Yeah yeah, I'm into R and B.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
But I like a mood.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
I I mean, not to get down with sex life,
but like I'm down very QUICKI and all that. But
if we're gonna do like a session, like I need
a mood, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Do you need a mood?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:31):
I mean I I just have to be in the right.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Bo I know.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
And with all this, that's the thing about women's like
guys are ready all the time, but like girls, like
especially you, like you're managing him.
Speaker 7 (05:41):
In my mind's running a mile a minute. So I
really have to be like chilled out.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah, yes, yes, I feel you belt yes, yes, but
you look at hot all the time.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I'm sure it's it's I'm sure it's hard.
Speaker 7 (05:53):
I'm rough, Like I'm showing up to freaking label meetings
and sweatpants hairing a butt and I'm like, hey.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Guys, I'm here. You got me be glad?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
So okay, here's another burden question.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Hi Caroline and Caroline, here's my question to you both.
You are both working mamas. What biggest piece of advice
do you have for other working mamas to keep everything
in as much balance as possible because it's not easy.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Amen.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
I would say it takes a freaking squad to raise
a child. When you're a working mom, you know who's.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
On your squad.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
So my mom helps a lot.
Speaker 7 (06:35):
She actually has Crawford right now, and then I've had
a nanny for the past two years. But I'm starting
to look into schools and things like that because he
just turned four.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
But you know, just.
Speaker 7 (06:49):
Having people that you can rely on to help because
you can't do it all and the mom guilt is real,
but it's also good for your kid to get a
little separation too, you know hard.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
I know, Yeah, I love that you guys tote him
around with you though. Yeah, I think that's so great.
Speaker 7 (07:06):
Yeah, he comes everywhere, but like I said, I'll have
a babysitter come out on the road, so because I
don't want ice am working, you know, making sure everything's
running smooth. So you know, Ian doesn't play until ten
o'clock at night sometimes and he goes to bet a
six thirty. But the fact that he can come to
soundcheck and run around and mess with the man guys
(07:28):
like to be a part of it all. He's a
part of it and he feels it. And you know,
he doesn't think he's missing anything.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
You're keeping him on a schedule on the road.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Get him a bit at six thirty, Caroline, Yeah, what
you are, superwoman?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Senny goes to bed so late.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Oh my gosh, you keep her.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I mean, you keep this schedule. Look at you running
at all, even when you're managing Ean on the road.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
He's got his six thirty bedtime.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
He does go, girl.
Speaker 7 (07:51):
I mean there's sometimes like if something cool is happening,
he stays up. I don't make him miss out on
some big stuff. But yeah, no, schedule is key, especially
when we're in twenty million different time zones. And I'm
about to take him to Australia because we're doing the
CMC Rocks. So we're gonna see how he does.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
He's gonna do great. Yeah, he's gonna do so great,
I think.
Speaker 5 (08:09):
So we'll see.
Speaker 7 (08:10):
The plane ride is long, but he's I mean, he's
flown from you know, to California many times, and that's
cross country.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
I mean, we'll see.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
He probably loves feeling though, like he's in the pack.
You know, he doesn't get left behind like Mom and
dadd are doing all these things going to work, but
like he gets to come like that's so cool.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
Yeah, he's very aware of like his people and like
he's like if someone's missing of his people, he's like
where are they?
Speaker 6 (08:35):
You know?
Speaker 4 (08:35):
And I will say one more thing to wrap this
up though to how I feel too, how to manage
it all, And we were talking about this. I feel
like you have to have support as a as a
woman who is working, Like especially like you're supporting your husband,
you're managing him, he's the artist. I have an artist
husband too. It's like it's so much when you're with
an artist, Like you have to have a place for
you to go, take care of yourself mentally, like having
(08:56):
a great girlfriend group like you were.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Saying, you have a text show, you can eat, jump anything.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
Yeah, I have a girl group and they're all of
my best friends and they're in the all in the
music business, so they understand. And you know, we literally
say anything and everything at all times a day.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
You got to get it out, and we get it out.
Speaker 7 (09:14):
And you know, there's always somebody there to respond to
or meet up with. You know, obviously it's harder as
we've gotten older, It's like we're used to being like, hey,
let's go get a like get a drink in two hours,
and now we're like planning things out a month.
Speaker 5 (09:31):
A month out. But we luckily have the group and
group chat. So they keep me saying.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
I think I'm support like mom, support friends, like community.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
That is so key what you said.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
I'm I mean you can talk to your husband all
you want, you know, but there's something about.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
A girl friend.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yeah, totally yep.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Felt and a good therapy group. I love some therapy.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
Yeah, and I have done some stuff out on a
therapy on a floor. I'm my gosh, thank god that
got out there.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
No, it doesn't to learn side me anymore.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
No, once you get it out, you just feel waitless
a little bit.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Yeah, so it's important.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
And yeah, just not feeling like you have to keep
it all in and like hide all the feelings that
you're feeling because you're having mom It's not that you
have like everyone goes through mom guilt. Then you got
why stuff going on. It's just like so much you
need to be able to get it out.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
Yep. You have to accept for in silence and then yeah,
you'll explode and then you'll end up taking it out
on people that don't serve it, and then that creates issues,
and you don't want more issues.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Exactly, so get it out.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Okay, we got another burning question, Caroline.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Do any of the things that used to upset you
a few years ago, like before COVID, matter at all today?
Speaker 5 (10:50):
What has changed?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Good, Yeah, that's a good question. I would say I
am a lot calmer that I was.
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Pre COVID or even you know, COVID was a stressful time,
so I wouldn't say maybe because I had just had
a baby, but so my anxiety was a little wild.
But I would say, now, man, there's always something and
you just got to get through it. And I think
(11:23):
I'm a lot calmer. And you know, everyone has an opinion,
especially in the music industry. So you know, if one
person doesn't like the way ian's voices or doesn't think
this is a hit, and then you know another person's
gonna love it. And generally it's yeah, if the industry
(11:44):
hates it, the fans love it. So I'm gonna bet
on the fans generally, So you know, I don't stress
too hard. When I used to care a lot about
you know what everyone thought.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Yeah, isn't that a real I think maybe you just
have to get broken down enough to realize you can't
care about what everyone thinks. I used to care so
much about everyone thought to the point it was like debilitating. Yeah,
and then finally so much stuff happens, so many bombs
hit you.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
That you're like, well, I guess I can't care.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I know, you're just kind of numb to it.
Speaker 7 (12:14):
And you're like, well if I freak out, nobody's gonna
get anywhere.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
So right, Yeah, yeah, you always have the freak.
Speaker 7 (12:21):
Out moments, like they're sometimes needed, but yeah, right now,
Like I mean, this past week, I there was a
lot of stuff in my world going on, and I
was just like, you know what, I'm just gonna get
through it because I've done it before.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
So well and probably though learning for me, it's like
learning how to really trust my intuition, you know, and
really how to trust like what feels in alignment for
like me, my family, my life. Like I feel like,
do you feel you've gotten to that place now where
it's like you really know what's good for your family,
for your life, for Ian's career, Like you can feel
(12:56):
it now you don't have to like worry about what
everyone else is thinking about it totally.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
Yeah, like I was saying on the podcast, I mean,
I think one of my strongest assets is I have
just a really strong intuition. If I go against my gut,
that's when I start to feel sick. It's like I
got a lead with what I'm feeling. You know, Yes,
do you feel like that's God?
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:19):
I think.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
I mean in a lot of times I have to
check myself and be like, Okay, let me feel what
I'm feeling and then talk to Him about.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
It and then like move forward. But because you don't
want to just.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
Always think on your own, you need to rely on him.
But I do have a strong intuition and I'm thankful
for it.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
How does God speak to you? Like, what does that
feel like? How do you know when it's God talking?
Speaker 5 (13:45):
I don't know, if you know. I think it's another feeling.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
I think it's more just as long as you're in
communication with him, he's got you.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
You know, you don't have to be like, oh.
Speaker 7 (13:57):
I saw a sign from God and this is the
right TOI like there's a butterfly, you know. I think
as long as you're communicating with him.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
He's going to make sure you're taken care.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
Of, like he as long as he's like at the forefront,
and you're like keeping him in mind and like doing
it with him in your heart.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Yeah, like guiding the way.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
