You might need my phone too, because I have her number and I have all of our texts together, too, because it could have been my fault. It's never my fault. It's always Tyler's fault. Anything ever goes wrong, I just blame Tyler. He said that's okay. No, it's Funny when people, like, don't get that. Him and I are, like brothers, okay? We are so close, and I bully him a little bit more on the podcast, but he bullies me more in real life. Like, I feel like this is my safe space to, like, make little sly comments at him. But the cool thing about having a male best friend, regardless of his sexual orientation is that they're just stronger, which sometimes is actually really hard on me because he can, like, get really mean or, like, make jokes and comments. And then I like it, though, because he's not a BSer and he won't lie to me. Like, he's very genuine and honest about everything, but his delivery can be really, really harsh. But it, like, allows me to, like, also be a little harsh because he doesn't get offended. Like, I could literally say, which I wouldn't because he's my best friend. I would never say, like, something like, mean. But, like, you know, we like little, like, sorority, like, harassment, like, frat house harassment without any weird sex stuff. That's what we do with each other. But, yeah, we had a good time. It was Tyler's first year in New York as, like, my employee, and we just had a really good time. He has his own little fan group too, which is so cute. Like, literally, at base reality, like, his line to, like, meet him was pretty much the same length of mine. And it's hard too, because now Maria, she gets recognized and people love Maria. And so we were kind of just joking. Like, you know, they're trying to, like, get, like, behind the scenes videos of me doing, like, my meet and greets and stuff at the show. But then, like, people are, like, stopping them and are like, oh, my God, can we get pictures with you? And I love this. Like, I think it's amazing. But I was like, I need to, like, I guess hire people to come with me that no one cares about because they can't. They're, like, trying to do stuff, but then people are coming up to them. And guys, if you came up to them, don't even worry. Like, I don't care. They love it. And I think it's so special and sweet and, like, it just makes me happy that you guys love my team as much as I do. And, you know, it's just amazing. Like, they deserve, like, their own fan club for sure. But, yeah, it's just cute. It's the cutest thing ever. This is so liquidy, guys. I feel like I'm eating soup. It melted so fast. I think I'm, like, radiating heat. From, like, my genitals. I don't know. And I also feel really bad eating on the camera for y'all, but I'm hungry. A bitch is hungry. What else? I had, like, a really, like, horrible thing happen in my personal life when I was out of town, which I can't talk about, and I had to, like, go speak at a class, and I was literally a shell of a human. And, like, Maria and Tyler were so stressed out, and they were like. Literally, it was like. It reminded me of, like, a pop star that's supposed to go on stage and perform, but, like, she, like, just found out her dad died. It wasn't that deep, but, like, in the same vein, no one died. Felt, felt, you know? Okay, so anyway, and they're like, oh, my God, like, this diva has to go perform. And I did. I pulled it together. I got my shit together. I showed up and I was really proud of myself because two years ago, I could not have done that. But just knowing, you know, I'm there to help and build people up and just, you know, it's such an amazing show. So many people I taught last year were in my class again this year, but it was, like, a different class this year, and they would come up to me and they're like, sav the advice that you gave me. Or, like, your class last year, like, I opened my own business, or, like, I finally hit six figures in my business from taking your class or, you know, they just feel more confident in who they are on social media. Um, just so many things. Like, it was just so amazing to see that and see the growth and just, like, remember, you know, people, like, a whole year can go by, you know, and they're, like, in a completely different place in their business. And not all because of me, of course, but from taking my classes or, like, meeting me or talking to me or whatever advice I gave them, like, actually, like, impacted them so much. So it's just. It's so cool. It's so rewarding. I love. I love teaching, I love educating, and I love being at these shows. I love meeting everybody. It doesn't make me anxious like it used to. It's like, finally now, like, I've, like, accepted I think, my role in this industry and who I am, and I'm, like, content with it. And I don't feel like I have to prove myself as much as I used to, and I don't feel judged as much as I used to. I just, like, I'm in this era now where I just really don't care. I lost a lot of my personality. Like, starting out my page. I had so much personality, and I think I always have had personality, but, like, I had a lot of personality when I first started my page because nobody was watching me, and I was just me. And I was young. I didn't have a, you know, anything to lose. And then, you know, as you start getting a following and you get those first couple, like, hate comments and people, like, judging you. You good? Okay. Amazing. I'm wrapping up. Yeah. After people, like, tear you down, like, it kind of you just, like. Like, oh, no. Like, now I, like, feel nervous to, like, be a hundred percent myself or, like, share funnier things or, like, I.
