Hello, and welcome to the Mirror Project.

Alexandra: and Alexandra.

4

: 00:00:18

Christine: and we are thrilled

to have you back with us.

5

: 00:00:20

We've missed you all so much,

and we're so excited to be

6

: 00:00:23

back just in time for summer.

7

: 00:00:25

hope you're ready for some sunshine,

fun, and fantastic conversations.

8

: 00:00:29

Today, we're kicking things off with

a special listener Q& A episode.

9

: 00:00:33

We've got some amazing questions from

you guys, and we can't wait to dive in.

10

: 00:00:38

So grab your favorite summer drink,

and Sit back and let's get started.

11

: 00:00:41

It's going to be a fun ride.

12

: 00:00:43

Alexandra: Before we dive in today's

topic, like, subscribe, or follow us

13

: 00:00:46

on your preferred listening platform.

14

: 00:00:48

Go ahead, pause, and do

it now before you forget.

15

: 00:00:51

Don't worry, we won't

get started without you.

16

: 00:00:53

Christine: All right.

17

: 00:00:54

So we got so many amazing questions

from you all that we decided to

18

: 00:00:59

break them up into two parts.

19

: 00:01:00

So we're going to start with

podcast related questions.

20

: 00:01:04

And I will say, I know I put together this

outline for the episode, but did I think

21

: 00:01:09

about the answers to these questions?

22

: 00:01:12

Not a whole lot.

23

: 00:01:13

So I'm going to be winging it and it'll

be fun to see what comes out of my mouth.

24

: 00:01:17

Alexandra: I feel like that's every

episode that Christine will plan, but

25

: 00:01:20

then it's just, hey, in the moment.

26

: 00:01:22

Christine: then it's authentic.

27

: 00:01:24

Alexandra: Yes, and it's real

and it's fun and we get to bring

28

: 00:01:27

everyone along for the ride with us.

29

: 00:01:29

Christine: I don't want to overthink

things too much because I'm, I

30

: 00:01:32

classically do overthink things.

31

: 00:01:34

But anyway let's get started

with these questions.

32

: 00:01:39

Alright, so one is what's been

our favorite episode so far?

33

: 00:01:44

Alexandra, why don't you kick us off?

34

: 00:01:46

Alexandra: Oh, wow.

35

: 00:01:47

Okay.

36

: 00:01:47

Okay.

37

: 00:01:48

So Before we jump into that, can you

believe that this is our 17th episode

38

: 00:01:52

and we only started in February?

39

: 00:01:54

So we have quite a lot of

episodes to choose from.

40

: 00:01:57

Christine: I can't believe it.

41

: 00:01:59

I still, sometimes I'm

like, wow, we're doing it.

42

: 00:02:02

for such a long time.

43

: 00:02:03

It was just this idea,

but now we're doing it.

44

: 00:02:05

And it's wild that we're on 17 and

we're answering your questions What

45

: 00:02:12

Alexandra: I really like our

sayings and mantras episode.

46

: 00:02:16

I thought that was really cool.

47

: 00:02:18

I feel like we keep

coming back to that one.

48

: 00:02:20

Yeah.

49

: 00:02:21

I was like hitting the ground running.

50

: 00:02:23

I've also enjoyed the ones where we've had

guests on like my friend Traveris does.

51

: 00:02:28

That was really fun because she

always brings such inspiring

52

: 00:02:31

questions to the conversation.

53

: 00:02:32

So we do little teas

for later in the year.

54

: 00:02:35

We have an episode coming up with her

where we kind of cut the small talk.

55

: 00:02:39

So that was super exciting.

56

: 00:02:41

And wow.

57

: 00:02:42

I mean, there's really so many, those are

the couple that are sticking out to me.

58

: 00:02:45

What about you, Christine?

59

: 00:02:46

Christine: I agree with you.

60

: 00:02:47

I episode two sayings and mantras.

61

: 00:02:50

We is definitely one of my favorites.

62

: 00:02:52

And it's also been one that I think has

resonated with a lot of people because

63

: 00:02:55

I've had people come up, say to me, wow,

I loved that sayings and mantras episode.

64

: 00:03:00

So that feels so good knowing that we

kind of, you know, hit it out of the park

65

: 00:03:06

with that One of our first topic episodes.

66

: 00:03:08

So sayings and mantras.

67

: 00:03:10

think.

68

: 00:03:10

I did really enjoy our conversation.

69

: 00:03:13

Oh gosh, I'm blanking on episode titles.

70

: 00:03:18

The one where we talked

about self confidence.

71

: 00:03:22

Am I confident?

72

: 00:03:23

Hello.

73

: 00:03:24

Alexandra: Ooh, that was a good one.

74

: 00:03:26

Christine: one.

75

: 00:03:26

That was one where I felt like I really

Went deep and was vulnerable in a

76

: 00:03:31

way I hadn't yet been on the podcast.

77

: 00:03:33

So,

78

: 00:03:34

I really enjoyed that one.

79

: 00:03:36

Sort of peeling back more layers

and getting to the heart of things.

80

: 00:03:39

And then most recently I loved

the episodes we did with our moms.

81

: 00:03:44

Alexandra: Was really fun.

82

: 00:03:45

That was,

83

: 00:03:45

Christine: And having them on was so fun.

84

: 00:03:48

I really loved it.

85

: 00:03:50

Alexandra: I really liked the two

part format because it allowed us to,

86

: 00:03:54

you know, take people who've been so

instrumental in our lives and really

87

: 00:03:56

devote specific times to parts of

that relationship, which was cool.

88

: 00:04:00

Christine: Yeah, I agree.

89

: 00:04:02

Alexandra: I am actually having

to look back at our calendar to

90

: 00:04:05

remember all the episode titles.

91

: 00:04:07

I really enjoyed the forget balance

episode, the one I was like, you know,

92

: 00:04:12

go crazy, join a cult, then start one.

93

: 00:04:14

That was a lot of fun.

94

: 00:04:15

And I remember in the episode, I was like,

I don't really love the word balance.

95

: 00:04:19

Cause we don't want to be still.

96

: 00:04:20

And then a coworker of mine was like

said she likes the word harmony,

97

: 00:04:24

like a harmony between Work in

light, like work, life harmony.

98

: 00:04:28

And I was like, Ooh, I like that.

99

: 00:04:30

Cause it's, you know,

it's kind of a dance.

100

: 00:04:32

So, that just made me think of that, but.

101

: 00:04:34

Christine: That's really cool.

102

: 00:04:35

Cause I think it also speaks to the

reality of how life can be, right?

103

: 00:04:40

Like it's never truly 50, 50.

104

: 00:04:43

You're constantly like trying to find.

105

: 00:04:46

Steady ground, but harmony

allows you to flow with it.

106

: 00:04:51

And that's a good way to look at it.

107

: 00:04:54

Very cool.

108

: 00:04:55

Alexandra: So what has been the funniest

moment to date, or if not the funniest,

109

: 00:05:00

what have been some of the funniest?

110

: 00:05:02

Christine: Well, it's always pretty

funny when we sit down to record, cause

111

: 00:05:05

I feel like as soon as I press that

button, I'm like, what am I going to say?

112

: 00:05:09

So as Alexandra has mentioned, we have

to put a blooper reel out there because

113

: 00:05:15

there's so many funny things of like us.

114

: 00:05:19

Me messing up and

115

: 00:05:21

Alexandra: We both do.

116

: 00:05:23

It's not just Christine.

117

: 00:05:25

Christine: but let me

think, has there been a.

118

: 00:05:27

You know, I've really loved

having Nicole on, my sister.

119

: 00:05:31

She, I always laugh so much.

120

: 00:05:33

So I feel like whenever she's on or

when my other sister Tori is going to

121

: 00:05:38

be joining us for a future episode, I

can just imagine like having them on,

122

: 00:05:44

it's going to be a lot of fun and can't

wait to see what Tori brings to the mix.

123

: 00:05:49

But how about you, Alexandra?

124

: 00:05:50

Alexandra: I love it.

125

: 00:05:51

So we try to really like outline

script, some of our intros and closings

126

: 00:05:56

to keep it keep us from rambling.

127

: 00:05:58

Cause I think we can kind of,

we can get into a flow and Oh

128

: 00:06:00

my gosh, let's keep talking.

129

: 00:06:02

So to kind of keep us.

130

: 00:06:03

Tailored in and stuff.

131

: 00:06:04

We try to write them

out and they're great.

132

: 00:06:07

They're funny.

133

: 00:06:08

And then we'll sit down to record.

134

: 00:06:09

And we're like very serious, dead on.

135

: 00:06:11

I'm like looking at Christine.

136

: 00:06:12

I'm like, okay, we're saying this

and then serious moment, but our

137

: 00:06:16

mouth goes off and it's just like

138

: 00:06:18

Which we're like, okay.

139

: 00:06:20

And so then we laugh for

like about a half a minute

140

: 00:06:22

Christine: It's

141

: 00:06:23

Alexandra: and we're like okay.

142

: 00:06:24

Christine: I read a word, but my mouth

says a different word, or says it

143

: 00:06:27

combined words or I say, I don't know.

144

: 00:06:29

It just is kind of,

145

: 00:06:31

Alexandra: Or even if we don't have

something scripted and we're talking

146

: 00:06:33

about something and like you can

tell like we were thinking something

147

: 00:06:36

but our mouth went the other way

and we're like, what happened?

148

: 00:06:40

It's just

149

: 00:06:42

Christine: because that happens.

150

: 00:06:45

And I'm

151

: 00:06:45

Alexandra: What was I saying?

152

: 00:06:46

I was like,

153

: 00:06:46

Christine: I don't know where

I with this, but here we are.

154

: 00:06:52

Alexandra: Yeah, I know.

155

: 00:06:52

I think this is why we have to release

a blooper reel so people can join in

156

: 00:06:55

on some of the laughters and the gaffs

that we've had, because it's just

157

: 00:06:58

been, it's, you know, been quite funny

and totally randomly out of the blue.

158

: 00:07:03

We're in a good flow.

159

: 00:07:04

We're doing things.

160

: 00:07:05

And then suddenly it's Oh, now

we've got to get back on the tracks.

161

: 00:07:08

Similar to the first question,

one of the questions I got

162

: 00:07:10

was what's the favorite topic?

163

: 00:07:12

What is our favorite

topic discussed so far?

164

: 00:07:18

Christine: It's a really good one.

165

: 00:07:19

I always love the topics when we get deep.

166

: 00:07:23

I love when we talked about books and

our interest, because that's like a

167

: 00:07:27

really good insight into who we are and

we get to geek out and, all of that.

168

: 00:07:32

But I always love the topics where we

sort of keep peeling back those layers.

169

: 00:07:36

So like, I, the uh, Am I

confident episode or there's even

170

: 00:07:41

Alexandra: What

171

: 00:07:42

Christine: this.

172

: 00:07:42

Yeah, bravery.

173

: 00:07:43

There's even some coming

up this month where

174

: 00:07:47

flow and we I love it when we confront

topics where I've always feel a

175

: 00:07:53

little bit uncomfortable about it Not

because I don't want to talk about

176

: 00:07:57

it but because like I really have to

think about how I feel about these

177

: 00:08:01

situations because I think a lot of

people Or, I'll just speak for myself.

178

: 00:08:07

When when I'm faced with something that

makes me feel uncomfortable, it's hard

179

: 00:08:11

for me to continue facing it and dig

deep as to okay, why am I uncomfortable?

180

: 00:08:16

Is it because I what's,

it because of this?

181

: 00:08:19

Or is it something else that I don't

even realize but it's affecting

182

: 00:08:23

me when I Facing these situations.

183

: 00:08:26

So for me, those are my favorite

topics, but, what about you?

184

: 00:08:31

Alexandra: I enjoy that we're

doing some of those deeper

185

: 00:08:34

dives and we're definitely, I

feel like gaining traction and.

186

: 00:08:38

Delving further into those.

187

: 00:08:40

But I loved some of the ones that

we just kind of are in sometimes

188

: 00:08:44

balanced out with that the lighter

and like the pack your bags.

189

: 00:08:47

It's time to fly because

we both love to travel.

190

: 00:08:49

So I really like that.

191

: 00:08:51

Trying to think I'm looking forward

to some of the ones that are coming

192

: 00:08:53

up this month with your sister.

193

: 00:08:55

I like, I don't know.

194

: 00:08:57

I just like the variety of stuff we cover.

195

: 00:09:00

I think instead of just a

specific topic, I like that.

196

: 00:09:03

We cover a variety.

197

: 00:09:04

Cause people ask me like, Oh,

what's your podcast about?

198

: 00:09:06

And I would say, Oh, we

pick things that we cover.

199

: 00:09:10

are drawn to or we're dealing with and

that kind of guides what we're doing

200

: 00:09:14

versus being a sole topic podcast.

201

: 00:09:18

So I enjoy that part, which makes it

then difficult to say, what's my favorite

202

: 00:09:22

hands down topic that we've discussed.

203

: 00:09:24

Christine: Yeah, definitely.

204

: 00:09:25

I, yeah, I always, I think about it more

broadly and, you know, we've only done

205

: 00:09:30

one so far, but we plan to do more, the

history focused episodes was like the St.

206

: 00:09:36

Patrick's day when we did was

really fun to research and

207

: 00:09:39

Alexandra: I think

208

: 00:09:41

Christine: flow.

209

: 00:09:41

So I look forward to more of those.

210

: 00:09:44

Alexandra: we have what one,

211

: 00:09:46

maybe two or three, definitely

at least two more, I think.

212

: 00:09:50

this year.

213

: 00:09:51

Christine: coming out this summer and

then I can't remember when the next

214

: 00:09:55

one's coming But yeah, so stay tuned

more history focus episodes to come

215

: 00:10:00

Alexandra: Okay.

216

: 00:10:01

Dream guest, Christine.

217

: 00:10:03

Christine: dream guest

218

: 00:10:06

are we gonna be like completely realist

really like completely unrealistic or?

219

: 00:10:13

Alexandra: Okay.

220

: 00:10:14

Give me what we think is

unrealistic right now.

221

: 00:10:16

And then what you think

is realistic right now.

222

: 00:10:20

Christine: dream guest would

be my favorite artist of all

223

: 00:10:23

time right now, which is Adele.

224

: 00:10:25

I fucking love her so much.

225

: 00:10:27

I

226

: 00:10:27

Alexandra: She's so funny too.

227

: 00:10:29

Christine: so funny, and I feel like I

would just love to have a conversation

228

: 00:10:36

like we have on here with her.

229

: 00:10:37

We could go so many

different ways with it.

230

: 00:10:40

And she's just is the way she thinks

about life she things that have happened

231

: 00:10:46

to her and like moves forward with that.

232

: 00:10:51

It's just so cool to me how she's

a wonderful example of somebody who

233

: 00:10:57

continues to put in the work to add

anything she does her professional

234

: 00:11:02

life, her family life, her, like

even her relationship with herself.

235

: 00:11:06

It's really something I've.

236

: 00:11:11

watching and as a fan have always been

rooting for her, not only, with her

237

: 00:11:16

music, but just she's out there just

trying to live life like the rest of us.

238

: 00:11:21

And I really would love to

just talk with her about it a

239

: 00:11:24

bit more, but maybe one that.

240

: 00:11:28

In time, I think could be achievable.

241

: 00:11:32

Alexandra: We

242

: 00:11:33

Christine: don't know.

243

: 00:11:34

We'll see.

244

: 00:11:36

Alexandra: have to dream for the

stars and then make it happen.

245

: 00:11:38

Right.

246

: 00:11:39

Christine: What about you?

247

: 00:11:41

Alexandra: Oh, well you

didn't answer the second one.

248

: 00:11:42

Who's a bit more realistic right now that

you think we could in the next year or so.

249

: 00:11:46

Christine: You know, there, we up our

favorite influencers that we follow

250

: 00:11:51

in the body health and body episodes.

251

: 00:11:54

a influencer I found about.

252

: 00:11:56

A year ago, her name's Emma Arletta.

253

: 00:12:00

She is a plus size influencer,

and I just really love her vibe.

254

: 00:12:05

She I always enjoy her content.

255

: 00:12:07

She seems really sweet, and I think

it would be fun to have her on, and

256

: 00:12:11

we don't even have to have the episode

focused on body acceptance and the body

257

: 00:12:15

positivity movement and things like that.

258

: 00:12:17

I think she would just be a fun

person to interview cause she's

259

: 00:12:20

in, she's doing modeling now.

260

: 00:12:22

She's, had a whole life prior to becoming

like doing the influencer life full time.

261

: 00:12:28

She I think.

262

: 00:12:31

don't know if she was a speech

pathologist, but she had this whole

263

: 00:12:34

other career path that she was on

and was doing social media on the

264

: 00:12:39

side and got to a point where she was

able to make it her full time job.

265

: 00:12:43

So I feel like that would just be a really

interesting conversation of this wasn't

266

: 00:12:46

the life you, the job you are expecting

to have, but it sort of just grew.

267

: 00:12:50

And it'd be really cool to talk

with her about all of that.

268

: 00:12:55

Alexandra: I think that

would be a great episode.

269

: 00:12:57

You know, I don't know that we're fed

a story that when we're younger, but

270

: 00:13:00

I think I had this idea that, okay,

life is going to follow a set of

271

: 00:13:06

Pre prescribed orders and thing.

272

: 00:13:10

And

273

: 00:13:10

Christine: Yeah.

274

: 00:13:12

Alexandra: as Christine can attest

to have, we have both learned

275

: 00:13:15

that life does not follow that.

276

: 00:13:17

So it'd be very awesome to have somebody

who very almost publicly has shown

277

: 00:13:23

that shift, which would be awesome.

278

: 00:13:25

Christine: Cause like when you're

little, made to seem like, Oh,

279

: 00:13:28

there's these tracks that you can,

you pick what track you want to take.

280

: 00:13:32

And then you're mean to think

it's an easy shot from there or

281

: 00:13:37

it's a simple shot from there.

282

: 00:13:39

Not necessarily easy.

283

: 00:13:40

But it's really not how that it's really

not how it works as I've been rudely

284

: 00:13:45

awakened to realize, but yeah, but.

285

: 00:13:50

What about you, Alexandra?

286

: 00:13:52

Alexandra: so interestingly, kind of

more on the topic of dating life partner

287

: 00:13:58

or kind of, you know, what is it like?

288

: 00:14:01

In that field.

289

: 00:14:02

What are women hearing?

290

: 00:14:03

What are men hearing?

291

: 00:14:04

I would really love to get somebody.

292

: 00:14:06

I've probably started

following in the past year ish.

293

: 00:14:10

And his name is Will Hitchens.

294

: 00:14:12

I think I've mentioned him on an episode.

295

: 00:14:16

But he's out of Australia and I just

really enjoy his content and his content.

296

: 00:14:20

Perspective and his take, because he

talks about a lot about the male space

297

: 00:14:25

on, you know, social media and how

that says, if you're not a certain

298

: 00:14:29

way or like an alpha male kind of

thing, then you won't find females.

299

: 00:14:33

But I like how he responds to it.

300

: 00:14:35

And he's Hey, I used to listen

to that and think it was true.

301

: 00:14:39

And then what it's like

coming out of that.

302

: 00:14:41

And so it's really helpful, I think, to

see what women hear and then what Men

303

: 00:14:47

can hear and then where is the reality?

304

: 00:14:49

So I think that would be kind of fun.

305

: 00:14:51

And then Somebody maybe

a little bit sooner.

306

: 00:14:54

I really enjoy talking to Melissa

Sparrow she's somebody I know in

307

: 00:14:59

Canada who does Akashic record

reading and shamanic healings and as

308

: 00:15:03

people if you've been listening for

a while, you know that Christine and

309

: 00:15:06

I are into all the things, all the

witchy vibes and the spiritual stuff.

310

: 00:15:10

And it's, you know, my bread and butter.

311

: 00:15:12

So I'd love to have her on and talk

about that with you all listening

312

: 00:15:15

and share with you guys another part

of me and what Christine and I like.

313

: 00:15:21

So those are, I think the two like

current dream guests right now

314

: 00:15:25

Christine: Nice.

315

: 00:15:26

it happen.

316

: 00:15:27

Alexandra: would love

to have Adele on too.

317

: 00:15:29

So.

318

: 00:15:29

Christine: that one's

319

: 00:15:30

Alexandra: I think we

didn't make these for,

320

: 00:15:33

Christine: but who knows?

321

: 00:15:35

Yeah.

322

: 00:15:36

Okay.

323

: 00:15:37

This one was a fun question.

324

: 00:15:39

What has surprised you about making

the podcast as you continue to record?

325

: 00:15:44

I've never really thought

326

: 00:15:46

it.

327

: 00:15:46

It's a fun one.

328

: 00:15:48

Alexandra: I haven't either.

329

: 00:15:49

And, you know, I was actually weirdly

thinking along this and I hadn't

330

: 00:15:52

read our outline until basically

this morning for this episode.

331

: 00:15:56

And this past week is Christine can attest

to, I have been working on a project

332

: 00:16:01

for my MBA in a negotiations course.

333

: 00:16:05

And it's an audio visual thing

with a group of four and we're

334

: 00:16:10

had to record on a PowerPoint.

335

: 00:16:11

So it learned some new skills on

PowerPoint, which is kind of cool, but

336

: 00:16:15

surprised me about making this podcast

is how much more comfortable I am now

337

: 00:16:20

kind of allowing my voice and what

I'm saying to be recorded and not.

338

: 00:16:27

freaking out about it so much.

339

: 00:16:29

I think when I first sat down to record

on my slide for that PowerPoint, I was

340

: 00:16:33

like, Oh my gosh, it's, it was first

of all, learning PowerPoints recording

341

: 00:16:37

versus what we use here for this podcast.

342

: 00:16:39

Christine: Yeah.

343

: 00:16:40

Alexandra: it's okay.

344

: 00:16:41

But then something happened and

I think somehow my recording

345

: 00:16:46

for my slide got deleted.

346

: 00:16:47

So I had to redo it like Thursday night.

347

: 00:16:50

And I was actually here at my

desk, had my mic hooked up and I.

348

: 00:16:55

Clicked it and I was like,

Oh, this is, I know this,

349

: 00:16:58

with this.

350

: 00:16:59

I can do this.

351

: 00:16:59

So I enjoyed that as we continue doing

this, I'm getting more comfortable

352

: 00:17:04

speaking in other parts of my

life and putting myself out there.

353

: 00:17:08

But in terms of the podcast, I kind

of think it's, we'll start with one

354

: 00:17:14

thing where it's okay, we want to talk

about X, but then X will morph into

355

: 00:17:18

like X, a XB, like it kind of grows.

356

: 00:17:22

And sometimes I'm like, wow,

we could really talk about.

357

: 00:17:25

this one topic in many different ways.

358

: 00:17:27

So I think that constantly surprised me.

359

: 00:17:29

I'm like, okay, we're going to do this

and this is what it's going to be.

360

: 00:17:32

But we were just talking about

with Emma Arletta, like life

361

: 00:17:35

goes in a different direction.

362

: 00:17:36

So being able to flex and adapt with that.

363

: 00:17:40

Christine: Yeah.

364

: 00:17:40

For sure.

365

: 00:17:41

Alexandra: What about you, Christine,

366

: 00:17:42

Christine: to

367

: 00:17:43

point you were making, like there was

one episode in particular that the

368

: 00:17:46

balance episode where I thought I going

into it, I was one way, but as we were

369

: 00:17:51

having the conversation, I was like,

wow, talking about it, talking it out.

370

: 00:17:58

was realizing like, well, maybe this

there, what I thought isn't what I

371

: 00:18:02

thought it was going like, how it's

going to feel about it, you know?

372

: 00:18:07

So of course, when we sit down and

we think out, okay, the topics we're

373

: 00:18:12

going to discuss and the outline

we're going to have for that episode,

374

: 00:18:16

it isn't until we start actually

having the conversation that.

375

: 00:18:20

A lot of times I sort of discover

my thoughts and opinions on things

376

: 00:18:24

because when you listen to another

person share their feelings, it not

377

: 00:18:30

necessarily changes my opinions, but

it gives me a new way of thinking

378

: 00:18:36

or a new perspective on something.

379

: 00:18:38

And then so like that avenue

380

: 00:18:41

Alexandra: mull it over.

381

: 00:18:42

And

382

: 00:18:45

Christine: So.

383

: 00:18:46

I would say that's been the biggest

thing when it comes to recording.

384

: 00:18:50

But also I feel like as me personally this

project has really helped me build back

385

: 00:18:57

my confidence in a way that I've mentioned

before at the about a year ago, I was sort

386

: 00:19:03

of just totally Down, wrecked, depressed.

387

: 00:19:07

My job had really done a number on my

self confidence and my mental health.

388

: 00:19:13

working on this project and

making this podcast reality

389

: 00:19:18

has helped me in so many ways.

390

: 00:19:21

And I'm, I mean, I think back to

the first episode when we started

391

: 00:19:26

recording and Sitting down, like

in thinking about it, I'm like,

392

: 00:19:29

Oh, I'm going to be totally fine.

393

: 00:19:31

But once you sit down and you hit

that record button, you're like, whoa.

394

: 00:19:36

But

395

: 00:19:37

Alexandra: I want to say as, you know,

thinking back to that first episode

396

: 00:19:40

to like the last episode, really.

397

: 00:19:43

The last episode we released,

I have seen you grow just in

398

: 00:19:49

cause it's not visual, right?

399

: 00:19:50

I mean, you and I can see each

other recording, but right

400

: 00:19:52

now the podcast is only audio.

401

: 00:19:55

You can hear how much more comfortable

and confident you've gotten your voice.

402

: 00:20:00

So I, I liked that.

403

: 00:20:01

And I think it'll continue to

surprise both of us how much more

404

: 00:20:03

confident we'll get, but it's been

wonderful to see you grow that way.

405

: 00:20:06

Christine: you.

406

: 00:20:08

that's such a sweet compliment.

407

: 00:20:09

Thank you so much.

408

: 00:20:11

Yeah, I think it's like what you said,

I've really I found a comfortability

409

: 00:20:16

in voicing my, how I feeling and

my thoughts and opinions on things.

410

: 00:20:21

And not that I never, that wasn't how

it was before we did this podcast, but

411

: 00:20:26

this it's, it's just different now.

412

: 00:20:29

And I,

413

: 00:20:30

Alexandra: Yeah.

414

: 00:20:30

Christine: I'm loving it

415

: 00:20:31

Alexandra: And it's kind of different

to do it with your friends and

416

: 00:20:34

talk about it, but then to also go.

417

: 00:20:37

I'm willing to put this out

there and whatever comes back and

418

: 00:20:41

whoever listens, which is awesome.

419

: 00:20:43

And both frightening.

420

: 00:20:44

Christine: Yeah,

421

: 00:20:45

Alexandra: one more thing on the,

what surprised us is I think it

422

: 00:20:49

surprises me in a very good way

that our outlines seem to evolve.

423

: 00:20:53

I mean, we follow a similar pattern

because it's helpful, but I think as

424

: 00:20:59

we get more comfortable we kind of use

cues and stuff, but then I, when we go

425

: 00:21:03

back to write show notes, I'm like, Oh,

I have to remember, I have to write down

426

: 00:21:06

what we're saying while we're saying it.

427

: 00:21:08

Christine: definitely.

428

: 00:21:10

Alexandra: but I think, you know, before

it was like we needed a lot more structure

429

: 00:21:14

and now it's has opened up a lot.

430

: 00:21:16

So I'm excited to see where

those go in the future.

431

: 00:21:18

Christine: me too.

432

: 00:21:19

Yeah, it also might be fun to test some

other other ways of approaching episodes

433

: 00:21:24

just to sort of mix it up and see.

434

: 00:21:25

You never know until you try, right?

435

: 00:21:28

Alexandra: And since it's pre

recorded, we could always scrap it.

436

: 00:21:32

Christine: Exactly.

437

: 00:21:33

All right.

438

: 00:21:34

This one's fun.

439

: 00:21:35

If you did a crossover with

another podcast, would you choose?

440

: 00:21:40

Alexandra: Okay.

441

: 00:21:41

So This may surprise you.

442

: 00:21:43

I'm not a huge podcast listener.

443

: 00:21:44

I think of the two of us, Christine

is definitely more in the know about

444

: 00:21:47

different podcasts, but the only one I

can think of at the moment is rituals,

445

: 00:21:52

which is, I think kind of what you

introduced me to that podcast on Spotify.

446

: 00:21:56

And I think that was an

offshoot of those creators.

447

: 00:21:59

First podcast.

448

: 00:22:00

That's why we drink.

449

: 00:22:02

So that would be kind of cool because I

mean, as we've both mentioned, Christina,

450

: 00:22:05

you're very much like witchy stuff.

451

: 00:22:06

And I think it would be kind of cool to

do a crossover on some topic that they

452

: 00:22:10

haven't covered or if they're still going,

I'm not sure haven't listened in a while.

453

: 00:22:15

But my mom really likes the

podcast, the importance of sleep

454

: 00:22:20

or something, nothing much happens.

455

: 00:22:22

I think that would be really interesting

to do because the creator creates

456

: 00:22:26

podcasts to help people fall asleep.

457

: 00:22:27

And that's so very different from

what we're doing as a podcast that

458

: 00:22:32

I think that would be kind of cool.

459

: 00:22:33

Christine: be cool.

460

: 00:22:35

Yeah, I need to check that one out.

461

: 00:22:36

Your mom has talked several

times to me about that.

462

: 00:22:39

I'm like, wow, that's really fascinating.

463

: 00:22:41

Alexandra: What about you, Christine?

464

: 00:22:43

Christine: well,

465

: 00:22:44

like Alexander mentioned,

I consume a lot of things.

466

: 00:22:48

Podcasts being one of them.

467

: 00:22:49

So there's a lot to choose from.

468

: 00:22:51

But Okay, so there's one podcast that

I've started to just sort of follow.

469

: 00:22:58

I don't listen to them religiously

or anything, but the Lautners, the

470

: 00:23:03

Taylor and Taylor Lautner, they have a

podcast called the squeeze And they,

471

: 00:23:08

each episode, I don't know if it's

every episode, but they usually have a

472

: 00:23:11

cast come on and they kind of approach

conversations like we do, but they they're

473

: 00:23:16

Alexandra: Mm hmm.

474

: 00:23:19

Christine: and that sort

475

: 00:23:20

Of space, I think so a podcast

that's similar to ours, I think that

476

: 00:23:25

would be kind of a fun one to sort

of, have a crossover episode and

477

: 00:23:29

just maybe Talk to them about how

we're similar, how we're different.

478

: 00:23:34

But then I'm also, what got me into

podcasting was uh, not, not that big

479

: 00:23:39

of a surprise was crime podcasts.

480

: 00:23:43

I've listened to a lot of

different true crime podcasts

481

: 00:23:45

some that are like limited series.

482

: 00:23:47

The one that I've listened to

the most is called Crime Junkie.

483

: 00:23:51

Each episode is focused on a

different case it's really quite

484

: 00:23:55

fascinating because and I'm, I

really admire the work that they do.

485

: 00:23:59

They've built such a following and

they Bring new light and voices to

486

: 00:24:04

these cases that have gone unsolved.

487

: 00:24:07

Some for decades, some for just, you know,

like it doesn't matter how long it's been.

488

: 00:24:12

They give voices, voice to these

cases that are still not solved.

489

: 00:24:17

And as a person who's, who

always loves a good mystery I've.

490

: 00:24:21

Really enjoyed listening to

the work that they've done.

491

: 00:24:25

And I'd be really cool to just.

492

: 00:24:27

Talk with them and even sort of get

an inside look into how their creative

493

: 00:24:33

process and how they construct their

episode and the research involved.

494

: 00:24:37

And they have a an amazing

team that does a lot of the

495

: 00:24:40

groundwork for them and research.

496

: 00:24:42

And, but there's so many there's

so many great podcasters.

497

: 00:24:47

Alexandra: Definitely would love to

stick it to a point where we, for

498

: 00:24:50

like research heavy episodes, we

could have a team helping us do that.

499

: 00:24:55

Christine: Would be awesome.

500

: 00:24:56

Alexandra: yeah.

501

: 00:24:57

Which when you were talking about the

crew, true crime junkies, it made me

502

: 00:25:01

remember that there is a podcast I

have not listened to, but I started

503

: 00:25:06

following the account on Instagram.

504

: 00:25:07

And she's just very engaging.

505

: 00:25:10

And I think I've sent you one

of the trailers for an episode

506

: 00:25:12

and I was like, did you know?

507

: 00:25:13

And I'm like, this is so cool.

508

: 00:25:15

I think it's called for the

love of history podcast.

509

: 00:25:18

And you know, as we talked about

we kind of want to do some more

510

: 00:25:22

history based research episodes.

511

: 00:25:24

And I think that would be a cool

opportunity to crossover because somebody

512

: 00:25:28

who does like predominantly history

focused episodes for us to learn about.

513

: 00:25:34

What we should do more for those.

514

: 00:25:35

That'd be cool.

515

: 00:25:36

Christine: That would be really fun.

516

: 00:25:37

I would love that.

517

: 00:25:38

All right, here we go.

518

: 00:25:40

Any, has there been any topic

ideas that we've scrapped?

519

: 00:25:45

And what are they?

520

: 00:25:47

Alexandra: So I don't think we've

scrap scrapped any episodes.

521

: 00:25:50

Christine: Yes, as we've mentioned,

spent a year prepping and coming

522

: 00:25:58

up with ideas for this podcast.

523

: 00:26:01

So we have a document that is a mile long.

524

: 00:26:04

With so

525

: 00:26:06

exactly with so many ideas that we

haven't necessarily scrapped anything yet.

526

: 00:26:11

But we have a whole bunch that we

didn't get to or plan for this year.

527

: 00:26:15

So there's definitely more to

come in the coming year on that

528

: 00:26:20

Alexandra: I definitely think when we

were planning our year out, which we

529

: 00:26:24

are coming up to our timeline to do

that for: 2025

530

: 00:26:29

we're like, okay, well, we already have

a lot of that type of content coming up.

531

: 00:26:34

So maybe we.

532

: 00:26:35

Postpone this one topic

until the next year or so.

533

: 00:26:38

Christine: Yeah,

534

: 00:26:39

Alexandra: yeah, it kind of feels like

the, you know, how topics have evolved.

535

: 00:26:42

Like we haven't really scrapped anything.

536

: 00:26:45

Christine: Yeah.

537

: 00:26:45

But maybe just to tease a little bit there

538

: 00:26:47

Alexandra: definitely.

539

: 00:26:48

I

540

: 00:26:48

Christine: a couple I'm

looking forward to, let's see.

541

: 00:26:53

family members.

542

: 00:26:54

We have to, was one that I

think we both would love to talk

543

: 00:26:59

about, but haven't gotten to yet.

544

: 00:27:03

Let's see, finding your home.

545

: 00:27:07

is where people notice

that you're not there.

546

: 00:27:10

I think that's such a beautiful

quote by Alexander Heyman.

547

: 00:27:14

what else?

548

: 00:27:16

Alexandra: feel like there

was one about soulmates and

549

: 00:27:18

how they show up in our lives.

550

: 00:27:20

Christine: Yes that, that's

one topic I think both of us

551

: 00:27:22

are kind of excited about.

552

: 00:27:23

And what is a soulmate?

553

: 00:27:25

cause I feel like there's so many

different kinds of soulmates out there.

554

: 00:27:28

I personally think that.

555

: 00:27:30

So yeah, guys, there's so many

things, habits and rituals.

556

: 00:27:34

What else?

557

: 00:27:36

Alexandra: I think we had talked

about maybe doing like Love

558

: 00:27:39

sex and taboo or something.

559

: 00:27:40

That would be kind of fun

delving into that realm.

560

: 00:27:44

Christine: Yeah, most definitely.

561

: 00:27:46

And then I think there's so many

we just touched on it briefly with

562

: 00:27:51

our first two part episode about

body image and health, but health

563

: 00:27:56

in general, there's so much to that.

564

: 00:27:58

So,

565

: 00:27:59

Alexandra: Definitely

566

: 00:28:00

Aspects like mental,

physical, emotional health.

567

: 00:28:04

I mean, even spiritual health

at many points of our lives.

568

: 00:28:07

Christine: yeah.

569

: 00:28:08

So so many, nothing has been scrapped.

570

: 00:28:11

Nothing is off the table.

571

: 00:28:12

That's for sure for the

both of us, but yeah,

572

: 00:28:16

Alexandra: And I definitely think

that there's topics that we've

573

: 00:28:18

already covered that we're like, we

want to come back and follow up on.

574

: 00:28:21

So those will get re

added to the list as well.

575

: 00:28:24

Christine: Definitely.

576

: 00:28:26

Alexandra: So Christine last

question around the podcast, what.

577

: 00:28:30

Does success for the mirror

project look like for you?

578

: 00:28:32

And I

579

: 00:28:34

Christine: So it's so interesting to

think about this because this for me

580

: 00:28:39

was just a fun creative project that

I wanted to do with my best friend,

581

: 00:28:45

but as we were planning and coming

up with what this could be and think

582

: 00:28:50

about what the future could be.

583

: 00:28:54

There's so many different

things I hope for.

584

: 00:28:56

Well, I sure hope that we continue to

do, we're continuing to do this the

585

: 00:29:01

next two, three, maybe even five years.

586

: 00:29:05

I.

587

: 00:29:06

Gosh, I would love for this to

grow and become my full time focus.

588

: 00:29:10

Maybe even be the start

of a podcast company.

589

: 00:29:14

And there's like different

podcasts that are underneath

590

: 00:29:18

the mirror project umbrella.

591

: 00:29:20

Like you mentioned our

topics are so varied.

592

: 00:29:23

It might be fun to have a podcast

that's focused on one specific thing.

593

: 00:29:28

But.

594

: 00:29:29

Alexandra: think also in that

supporting other podcasters who.

595

: 00:29:33

are interested in a similar format or

have a similar approach be so cool.

596

: 00:29:39

Christine: for this to grow

and, support other podcasters,

597

: 00:29:43

but also so their philanthropic

work is a big passion of mine.

598

: 00:29:48

So I would love for this to

benefit that in some way as well.

599

: 00:29:54

Wow.

600

: 00:29:54

There's so many, my

mind's just spinning right

601

: 00:29:57

you?

602

: 00:29:57

What do you think?

603

: 00:29:58

What's success look like?

604

: 00:30:01

Alexandra: similar to Christine.

605

: 00:30:02

I think in a practical sense for the

next year, I would really love to see

606

: 00:30:10

the show support itself in terms of,

607

: 00:30:13

I would love to have You know,

sponsors and listeners support us

608

: 00:30:17

so that we can continue creating

us for the listeners, which is

609

: 00:30:21

partially a lot of why we do this.

610

: 00:30:23

I also love getting to spend time with my

best friend recording this and creatively

611

: 00:30:29

expressing myself through a different

type of project than I normally do.

612

: 00:30:33

But yeah, I'd love to see our audience

grow and our community grow and

613

: 00:30:37

really support itself and take off.

614

: 00:30:39

Cause I would love to see that.

615

: 00:30:41

But yeah, I would love to see

us get our own recording space,

616

: 00:30:45

like not just our rooms, but like

a dedicated space or something.

617

: 00:30:48

So that'd be fun.

618

: 00:30:49

Christine: love that.

619

: 00:30:51

Alexandra: So.

620

: 00:30:51

we have our short term goals

and our long term goals.

621

: 00:30:53

And I love that.

622

: 00:30:54

Christine: yes, that's what, that's,

you know, that, that makes it easier

623

: 00:30:58

to constantly work towards something.

624

: 00:31:00

So yes,

625

: 00:31:02

a lot of a lot of hope for the future

of this and I'm excited to see it

626

: 00:31:07

grows and evolves because like we

said, there's so many ways this could

627

: 00:31:12

go and were here for whatever happens.

628

: 00:31:17

Alexandra: Also success wise,

I'd love to see have more

629

: 00:31:19

engagement with our audience.

630

: 00:31:21

So that, that would be a huge, I feel

like a benchmark, a mark of success

631

: 00:31:27

Christine: would love to

632

: 00:31:28

an element where we have listeners

either call in or come on and like

633

: 00:31:34

a guest for a segment of the show.

634

: 00:31:36

I think that would be so fun because

right now the way we're engaging

635

: 00:31:41

with people is just through our

social media and that's great.

636

: 00:31:45

I love that too.

637

: 00:31:46

But I want to see how far this could go.

638

: 00:31:51

Alexandra: I do want to say that we

have seen success that we started people

639

: 00:31:54

have donated to us, which is awesome,

which helps us keep funding this.

640

: 00:31:58

Our listener base has grown.

641

: 00:32:00

I feel like we have pretty

good audience engagement with

642

: 00:32:04

Christine: god,

643

: 00:32:04

Alexandra: and listen.

644

: 00:32:05

So I have to remember as

much as we want to grow.

645

: 00:32:08

We can also celebrate the

fact that Hey, we've done it.

646

: 00:32:10

Like you said, Christine earlier it's

kind of hard to believe Oh we're doing it.

647

: 00:32:15

So.

648

: 00:32:16

You ready to shift gears and

switch into the personal questions.

649

: 00:32:21

All right, Christine, coming out the

gate, what is a rabbit hole that you

650

: 00:32:25

could go down any day of the week?

651

: 00:32:28

I think

652

: 00:32:34

Christine: I try not to I know

there's people who like get

653

: 00:32:37

caught up in conspiracy theories.

654

: 00:32:38

I try not to do that.

655

: 00:32:40

But it definitely sometimes

you can't help it.

656

: 00:32:43

But for me it's like my interest when

it's like, there's a book series I

657

: 00:32:47

really love, or current, my current

rabbit hole obsession is Bridgerton.

658

: 00:32:54

Only four episodes have

come out, but I'm obsessed.

659

: 00:32:58

Alexandra: I mentioned in an episode,

I was like, I, you know, or we were

660

: 00:33:01

talking and I was like, I binged a show.

661

: 00:33:04

And then she was like, Wait, what show?

662

: 00:33:06

Christine: is it

663

: 00:33:06

Alexandra: And I was like, Third Vision.

664

: 00:33:10

And she's Okay, we have to talk about it.

665

: 00:33:11

Christine: do!

666

: 00:33:12

Oh my gosh, yes, we have, at length.

667

: 00:33:15

Alexandra: And I'm sure we will

again when part two comes out,

668

: 00:33:18

Christine: yes.

669

: 00:33:18

So that's my current thing that I can

just go go down a rabbit hole on and I

670

: 00:33:22

just get caught, all caught up in it.

671

: 00:33:24

And I'm sure people look at me

like, why are you re watching

672

: 00:33:27

this show five or six times?

673

: 00:33:29

I'm like,

674

: 00:33:29

Alexandra: because I love it.

675

: 00:33:30

Christine: it.

676

: 00:33:30

Alexandra: And it's so hot.

677

: 00:33:33

Christine: But yeah, I could easily

go down any sort of rabbit hole.

678

: 00:33:37

Alex and I go down them frequently.

679

: 00:33:39

I also love watching her and

her mom go down rabbit holes.

680

: 00:33:44

I just listen

681

: 00:33:44

Alexandra: Honestly.

682

: 00:33:45

Christine: our phone conversations.

683

: 00:33:46

I'm like, they go on a tangent.

684

: 00:33:49

I'm like, okay, guys, where are we going?

685

: 00:33:52

Where are we going to end

686

: 00:33:52

Alexandra: I think that could be close to

a sport sometimes when we start talking.

687

: 00:33:57

Christine: Yes, I would say you

and your mom are pros at that.

688

: 00:34:00

What

689

: 00:34:03

About you?

690

: 00:34:04

Alexandra: yeah.

691

: 00:34:05

Well, mentioned a couple of times

this episode, I love witchy stuff,

692

: 00:34:08

metaphysics spirituality stuff.

693

: 00:34:10

I can go down the rabbit

hole on that all day long.

694

: 00:34:13

love researching, but my, one

of my, the biggest things I

695

: 00:34:16

love to look into is tarot.

696

: 00:34:18

And maybe at some point we'll talk about.

697

: 00:34:20

you know, cards and

divination and all that jazz.

698

: 00:34:24

But a bit of a freak for tarot

699

: 00:34:26

Christine: Yes, you are.

700

: 00:34:27

Alexandra: and yeah, Christine can

Attached to my bit of a habit when

701

: 00:34:32

it comes to buying different decks.

702

: 00:34:33

Not all tarot.

703

: 00:34:34

I do have Oracle and Lenormand

and other things, but yep.

704

: 00:34:37

A book about tarot, how to read tarot,

this like numerology and tarot, spell

705

: 00:34:42

work and tarot, yeah, give it all to me.

706

: 00:34:43

And I'd love to go.

707

: 00:34:44

Christine: thinking out

your own book on tarot.

708

: 00:34:47

You're outlining

709

: 00:34:48

book.

710

: 00:34:49

Like this girl, everything I know

about tarot is because of her.

711

: 00:34:54

And has helped foster a love for myself.

712

: 00:34:56

So yeah definitely rabbit hole.

713

: 00:34:59

She loves to go down.

714

: 00:35:01

Alexandra: The book is something that has

been put on the back burner with my last

715

: 00:35:04

year of my MBA program, but it is still

percolating in the back of my mind and I

716

: 00:35:08

still keep thinking about it and what I

want it to be and how I want it to look.

717

: 00:35:12

So yeah, that's a project coming up.

718

: 00:35:14

But yeah, that's my rabbit

holes that sounded wrong.

719

: 00:35:17

Okay.

720

: 00:35:17

That's my rabbit hole.

721

: 00:35:18

I

722

: 00:35:20

Christine: That's your main one.

723

: 00:35:21

Yeah.

724

: 00:35:21

Alexandra: think we should cut that.

725

: 00:35:23

Christine: No.

726

: 00:35:23

I

727

: 00:35:26

Alexandra: Well, thanks, Christine.

728

: 00:35:27

Okay.

729

: 00:35:27

What is your current

favorites at the moment?

730

: 00:35:30

Some book, music, TV shows, activity.

731

: 00:35:34

Rattle off.

732

: 00:35:35

Christine: mentioned

one already, Bridgerton.

733

: 00:35:37

Excited for part two.

734

: 00:35:38

I've been also rewatching,

I love procedural dramas.

735

: 00:35:42

So I've,

736

: 00:35:43

Alexandra: Okay.

737

: 00:35:44

Christine: been, I recently

rewatched through 9 1 1 and I'm just

738

: 00:35:48

started rewatching 9 1 1 Lone Star.

739

: 00:35:51

just really enjoyed the format.

740

: 00:35:52

I like The stories it tells.

741

: 00:35:54

I mean, some of them are very crazy

and are, I sometimes wonder if it's

742

: 00:36:01

realistic, not really, but yeah, right

743

: 00:36:04

Alexandra: It's probably the drama.

744

: 00:36:05

Christine: right now I'm

on a real big TV kick.

745

: 00:36:08

Just

746

: 00:36:08

Of things

747

: 00:36:10

let's see.

748

: 00:36:12

Earlier in the year I was like reading for

like obsessively, so a good audio book.

749

: 00:36:18

I'm currently, I listened to Crescent

City, is the name, but Sarah J Maas.

750

: 00:36:25

I listened.

751

: 00:36:26

Alexandra: I, hilarious.

752

: 00:36:28

I actually just started

that book, audio book.

753

: 00:36:30

Christine: We're okay.

754

: 00:36:32

We'll have to, I'm coming to visit Alex.

755

: 00:36:34

Next weekend, so we'll have to

debrief and see where she's at.

756

: 00:36:39

It's a long book.

757

: 00:36:41

I don't know where you

758

: 00:36:41

Alexandra: Okay.

759

: 00:36:43

I think like chapter eight.

760

: 00:36:44

Christine: you, yeah,

you're just getting started.

761

: 00:36:46

So I've read the first one.

762

: 00:36:48

I have started the second.

763

: 00:36:50

I downloaded the third, so I'm

like ready to get all up in it.

764

: 00:36:54

Music?

765

: 00:36:57

Well, Beyonce came out with her

album a month or two ago, and I

766

: 00:37:04

really have been enjoying that.

767

: 00:37:06

Those who have watched Bridgerton will get

this reference, but I've had the Carriage

768

: 00:37:10

Scene song just on repeat in my head.

769

: 00:37:13

It's got no words, y'all.

770

: 00:37:14

It's just an instrumental, and the

violins It's my soundtrack to every day.

771

: 00:37:21

Alexandra: You, you sent

me three different social

772

: 00:37:24

media posts of that in a row.

773

: 00:37:27

I think she's a little

obsessed to be fair.

774

: 00:37:31

I have to agree.

775

: 00:37:32

I love how Bridgerton will take like

popular songs, like ABCDFU and like a

776

: 00:37:37

bit of in string quartet and a bunch

of other ones will come in and make

777

: 00:37:40

instrumental music to it, which I.

778

: 00:37:41

I love, you know, I love classical music.

779

: 00:37:43

So it's a real vibe.

780

: 00:37:45

Christine: It is indeed.

781

: 00:37:47

Alexandra: Any activities

that you've been his

782

: 00:37:50

Christine: Oh, I feel like I had one

the other day and it escaped me.

783

: 00:37:54

Hang on.

784

: 00:37:55

It's Well, like coming down to

785

: 00:38:04

see you next weekend, so I'm sure

you have some things in store.

786

: 00:38:09

I'm looking forward

787

: 00:38:10

Alexandra: Keep trying to convince

her we should go bowling, but I

788

: 00:38:12

keep getting like response to it.

789

: 00:38:15

Christine: go bowling, sure!

790

: 00:38:17

What else?

791

: 00:38:18

Just really looking forward

to going down to the beach.

792

: 00:38:21

Summer's here.

793

: 00:38:22

I love going down to the

shore and, playing in the

794

: 00:38:25

ocean and soaking up some sun.

795

: 00:38:27

Looking forward to

traveling a bit this summer.

796

: 00:38:30

Yeah, those are,

797

: 00:38:34

what's coming to mind

for me at the moment.

798

: 00:38:36

How about you?

799

: 00:38:37

Alexandra: All right, so I'm going

to try and write them off real quick.

800

: 00:38:39

The show's kind of split.

801

: 00:38:42

I just rewatched a little

bit of Sweet Magnolias.

802

: 00:38:44

I love that.

803

: 00:38:45

I don't know, it's kind of a vibe.

804

: 00:38:46

It makes me feel a little bit Gilmore

Girls, which, I don't know, I've been

805

: 00:38:49

kind of hesitant to rewatch Gilmore Girls,

and I typically rewatch it about once a

806

: 00:38:53

year or at least my favorite episodes.

807

: 00:38:56

Bunheads because that was a

one season also by the writer

808

: 00:39:00

and producer of Gilmore Girls.

809

: 00:39:01

That's a good one.

810

: 00:39:03

I got really into Netflix's

Dead Boy Detectives.

811

: 00:39:06

Thought that was so fun.

812

: 00:39:08

I'm like, I didn't even think

it would be a second season, so.

813

: 00:39:12

back and rewatching something, so

I actually started rewatching um,

814

: 00:39:17

CSI crime scene investigation, the

original one that started in: 2000

815

: 00:39:21

So I was like, okay, this is fun.

816

: 00:39:22

I feel like I never saw season two.

817

: 00:39:25

I was like, wow, this is all new.

818

: 00:39:28

Oh, music.

819

: 00:39:30

As we talked about love music.

820

: 00:39:31

That's been instrumentalized

like modern music.

821

: 00:39:34

That's cool.

822

: 00:39:35

I love like at like academia, dark

academia, classical vibe music.

823

: 00:39:40

But I have really Been getting into

EDM house trap techno music, which

824

: 00:39:47

kind of relates into the activities.

825

: 00:39:49

So I'm going to jump to that real quick.

826

: 00:39:50

Trying to stay and get physically healthy.

827

: 00:39:53

And I've mentioned, I have a Peloton,

I think, and I love hopping on.

828

: 00:39:58

So You know, and when I just, my brain's

going around and Christine can attest to

829

: 00:40:03

we both tend to overthink things a lot.

830

: 00:40:07

I just hop on, or it's been like a

not great day and I can just hop on

831

: 00:40:11

and lose myself in the music, which I

really, really like, and the instructor.

832

: 00:40:16

So plus got such a vibe.

833

: 00:40:17

And I really liked that.

834

: 00:40:18

It's almost Never been to a rave.

835

: 00:40:20

Don't know that I will go to.

836

: 00:40:21

I feel like I enjoy my raves on the bike.

837

: 00:40:23

But it's, I really love the music.

838

: 00:40:25

Gets me super hyped.

839

: 00:40:26

Trying to think.

840

: 00:40:27

Books.

841

: 00:40:28

I have really I'm starting

to enjoy Crescent City.

842

: 00:40:31

It was a recommendation from

Funny enough, not you, Christine,

843

: 00:40:34

but my coworker, Christina,

which we call, who we call Tina.

844

: 00:40:38

And she was like, you just have to listen.

845

: 00:40:39

I was like, okay, I'll do that.

846

: 00:40:41

So been on that.

847

: 00:40:43

There's a, I'm going to save it

for another question later on.

848

: 00:40:47

So I'll save that one.

849

: 00:40:49

Movies.

850

: 00:40:52

You know, like you, Christine, I think

I've been mostly watching TV recently.

851

: 00:40:56

Movies haven't Kind of in the mood to

rewatch the: 2015

852

: 00:41:01

Don't know why.

853

: 00:41:02

Just been, like that's coming up.

854

: 00:41:03

I want to see that.

855

: 00:41:05

But yeah, those are my current

favorites at the moment.

856

: 00:41:06

And activities, always.

857

: 00:41:09

reading tarot and oracle cards.

858

: 00:41:11

So that's always on the list.

859

: 00:41:12

But

860

: 00:41:13

Christine: definitely.

861

: 00:41:15

Alexandra: okay, Christine,

you ready for a hard one?

862

: 00:41:18

Christine: Yeah.

863

: 00:41:22

Alexandra: Okay.

864

: 00:41:23

How would we describe

each other in three words?

865

: 00:41:25

Christine: Well, if I was to

describe Alexandra in three words,

866

: 00:41:29

I would say loyal motivational.

867

: 00:41:32

Yes.

868

: 00:41:33

I'm constantly in awe and motivated

the, at what Alexandra does, she

869

: 00:41:40

also is such like a cheerleader for

the people she loves in her life.

870

: 00:41:44

So I feel like, yeah, loyal, motivational,

and gosh, there's so many words!

871

: 00:41:52

Loyal, motivational, and Joyful.

872

: 00:41:56

Loyal, motivational, and joyful

are my three words to describe

873

: 00:42:00

my dear friend, Alexandra.

874

: 00:42:02

Aww.

875

: 00:42:03

Alexandra: How can I sum up

you in three words, Christine?

876

: 00:42:06

I don't know.

877

: 00:42:07

Okay.

878

: 00:42:08

First word.

879

: 00:42:11

Sunshine.

880

: 00:42:11

I

881

: 00:42:13

feel like you're just always very

warm and bright and cheerful.

882

: 00:42:19

Christine: Thank you.

883

: 00:42:20

Alexandra: Sunshine.

884

: 00:42:22

Giving.

885

: 00:42:25

You're very generous with your time

and your kindness and always trying

886

: 00:42:29

to make sure people feel supported.

887

: 00:42:32

So you're very giving.

888

: 00:42:33

Sunshine, giving and curious.

889

: 00:42:38

I feel like when we talk, you're

always like, Oh, you learned something

890

: 00:42:41

new about food at work, or you saw

something on Instagram or somewhere else.

891

: 00:42:46

And you're like, Hey, did you hear?

892

: 00:42:47

And so, sunshine, curious

and giving wrapped

893

: 00:42:53

Christine: you.

894

: 00:42:53

That's very sweet.

895

: 00:42:54

Alexandra: up in a

896

: 00:42:57

Christine: Oh, that's fun.

897

: 00:42:58

We have, I love that we get, we have

these questions because we don't really

898

: 00:43:02

think about these until someone asks.

899

: 00:43:04

So,

900

: 00:43:05

Alexandra: That could be a challenge.

901

: 00:43:07

What if you had to quickly Instead of

having people's names in your phone or

902

: 00:43:11

as the title for them, if you gave them

three words, that would be interesting

903

: 00:43:15

to go through your contacts and

904

: 00:43:16

Christine: be fun.

905

: 00:43:18

Yeah, that's a fun, that's

a fun challenge for sure.

906

: 00:43:22

Okay.

907

: 00:43:23

Here's a, here's another good one.

908

: 00:43:26

How has your friendship evolved

since starting the podcast?

909

: 00:43:30

How has our friendship evolved?

910

: 00:43:32

Alexandra: well, I think it's

grown deeper in many ways.

911

: 00:43:34

I think, and also on a very practical

level in the sense of we're really

912

: 00:43:39

good friends, but also learning each

other as like business partners,

913

: 00:43:42

because Christine and I are as.

914

: 00:43:44

very similar as we are.

915

: 00:43:45

We're also so opposite.

916

: 00:43:46

I'm a morning person.

917

: 00:43:48

I'm like, hello, sunshine.

918

: 00:43:51

And she is the night owl.

919

: 00:43:52

And she's hello, evening.

920

: 00:43:54

And both of us were like, Oh,

you've lost me at that time.

921

: 00:43:58

Christine: it's

922

: 00:43:58

Alexandra: So,

923

: 00:43:58

Christine: one of your words

to describe me with sunshine

924

: 00:44:00

and I'm not a morning person.

925

: 00:44:04

Alexandra: no, but you have a

very just sunshine personality.

926

: 00:44:06

Christine: getcha.

927

: 00:44:07

Alexandra: So I think that's also, I

feel like for me, deep into my friendship

928

: 00:44:10

with you is just okay, the learning.

929

: 00:44:13

Each other's quirks in a

different way has also helped.

930

: 00:44:16

But it's nice also to have a constant

point of we do this together.

931

: 00:44:20

And also remembering to, to make

time to just call and catch up and do

932

: 00:44:24

things that aren't podcast related.

933

: 00:44:25

So balancing or harmonizing

between the two.

934

: 00:44:30

what about you, Christine?

935

: 00:44:32

Christine: No, I agree.

936

: 00:44:32

I don't, I yeah, 100%.

937

: 00:44:35

I don't have anything else to add.

938

: 00:44:38

I agree with what you said.

939

: 00:44:39

How to be business partners, but

also still prioritize our friendship

940

: 00:44:43

and figuring out how we'll work

together on this creatively.

941

: 00:44:47

Yeah.

942

: 00:44:47

I just echo everything you said.

943

: 00:44:50

Okay.

944

: 00:44:52

Alexandra: Okay, Christine,

here's a fun one.

945

: 00:44:54

Kind of relates, I think, to the

current favorites at the moment.

946

: 00:44:57

But if you could switch lives

with a fictional character for

947

: 00:45:00

a day, who would it be and why?

948

: 00:45:03

TV show, books, you know,

949

: 00:45:05

Christine: There's so

950

: 00:45:05

Alexandra: whatever.

951

: 00:45:07

Christine: Oh gosh, I've also, I've

consumed so much of everything, so.

952

: 00:45:13

Well,

953

: 00:45:14

Alexandra: I have a feeling

like maybe the carriage scene.

954

: 00:45:17

Yeah.

955

: 00:45:22

Christine: I've always loved Pride and

Prejudice, and that is Lizzie Bennet

956

: 00:45:25

has been character archetype that I've

always sort of in the back of my brain

957

: 00:45:32

and I love her journey in that story.

958

: 00:45:35

So I would say Elizabeth Bennett.

959

: 00:45:39

And then for the film and TV, sure,

I'd love to switch places with

960

: 00:45:44

Nicola Coughlin in Bridgerton and

be Penelope Featherington for a day.

961

: 00:45:49

Who wouldn't?

962

: 00:45:50

I mean, Colin's hot, man.

963

: 00:45:54

That, that

964

: 00:45:55

Alexandra: I also love how they,

965

: 00:45:56

Christine: ooh,

966

: 00:45:57

Alexandra: I love how they address

the glow up in the beginning of the

967

: 00:46:00

scene from Under What Foreign Sun.

968

: 00:46:03

Christine: Oh, his go up.

969

: 00:46:04

Yes.

970

: 00:46:05

Alexandra: You know, I

mean, both of them, but yes.

971

: 00:46:07

yeah,

972

: 00:46:08

Christine: just, love how, know

it's all fictional, but the way that

973

: 00:46:14

they, way with words that they have

both in Bridgerton and Jane Austen's

974

: 00:46:21

storytelling, it's just so beautiful.

975

: 00:46:24

Like it, it takes, I love

you to a whole nother level.

976

: 00:46:28

It's also like

977

: 00:46:29

love.

978

: 00:46:30

It's like not only how you speak to those

you care about, but how you show you love.

979

: 00:46:36

Those you care about.

980

: 00:46:38

So about you?

981

: 00:46:40

Alexandra: And really when I first

read this question, I was like, Oh,

982

: 00:46:42

definitely a fantasy character, like

some main female lead with powers.

983

: 00:46:47

And to be honest, all of it's kind

of fading out of my head, right?

984

: 00:46:52

I'm like, I wouldn't

know which one to pick.

985

: 00:46:55

There's so many that I really

like, but I'm trying to think of

986

: 00:47:00

honestly, any book like that has

just gone completely out of my head.

987

: 00:47:03

And I love so many

different, I really okay.

988

: 00:47:06

There's two, two characters.

989

: 00:47:08

In A Discovery of Witches, the

Diana, I really like her character.

990

: 00:47:14

I think that's kind of a cool character.

991

: 00:47:16

She has amazing abilities.

992

: 00:47:18

I also love the fact that

she's an academia an academia,

993

: 00:47:21

academic, an academic, sorry,

my words people I apologize.

994

: 00:47:25

But that she's like, Studying

and researching at Oxford

995

: 00:47:29

and just the library.

996

: 00:47:31

So it kind of really taps into

something in me that I'm like, I love

997

: 00:47:35

to study and learn about a lot of

stuff, but then also the practice and

998

: 00:47:38

the witchcraft and the time travel.

999

: 00:47:40

It's cool.

: 1000

00:47:40,959 --> 00:47:41,249

It's cool.

: 1001

00:47:41,279 --> 00:47:41,639

Right?

: 1002

00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:42,079

Love it.

: 1003

00:47:43,069 --> 00:47:45,659

But another fictional,

not fantasy character.

: 1004

00:47:45,659 --> 00:47:49,378

I like there's a book by Helena

hunting that I listened to audio

: 1005

00:47:49,378 --> 00:47:54,293

book because I really liked the voice

performer and how she narrates things.

: 1006

00:47:54,383 --> 00:47:55,833

It was, oh, what was it called?

: 1007

00:47:57,523 --> 00:47:58,383

Hold on, I gotta look it up.

: 1008

00:47:58,933 --> 00:48:00,733

I should know this one

because I like it so much.

: 1009

00:48:02,603 --> 00:48:07,523

If you hate me I would want to

be Beatrix or Rix because just

: 1010

00:48:09,753 --> 00:48:13,090

some really um, if you've read or

listened to the book, you know.

: 1011

00:48:13,130 --> 00:48:15,362

If you don't, go listen to it because

: 1012

00:48:16,497 --> 00:48:17,647

Christine: Get in the know, everyone.

: 1013

00:48:17,737 --> 00:48:19,707

Ah, yeah, I guess I have

to add this to my list.

: 1014

00:48:20,327 --> 00:48:21,547

Alexandra: Yes, it's good.

: 1015

00:48:21,547 --> 00:48:22,967

I've learned some things about myself.

: 1016

00:48:24,692 --> 00:48:25,312

Christine: Noted.

: 1017

00:48:25,507 --> 00:48:25,917

Alexandra: it's just

: 1018

00:48:26,107 --> 00:48:28,767

Enemies to lovers, but

not really total enemies.

: 1019

00:48:28,817 --> 00:48:30,817

It's just, I like it.

: 1020

00:48:31,027 --> 00:48:32,717

I think the characters

have a bit more depth.

: 1021

00:48:32,767 --> 00:48:35,257

You know, if you really think about

it, it's like Pride and Prejudice.

: 1022

00:48:35,257 --> 00:48:37,387

I think so many people can go

Oh, it's Pride and Prejudice.

: 1023

00:48:37,467 --> 00:48:39,048

It's just write it off.

: 1024

00:48:39,048 --> 00:48:42,308

But I think I typically listen

or read to it about once a year.

: 1025

00:48:42,308 --> 00:48:43,678

And there's so much

depth to the characters.

: 1026

00:48:43,678 --> 00:48:47,508

If you kind of dissect it a little

bit more, but that's what I would do.

: 1027

00:48:47,938 --> 00:48:51,828

If you had to eat food, one food

type of food for the rest of your

: 1028

00:48:51,828 --> 00:48:53,338

life, first team, what would it be?

: 1029

00:48:53,834 --> 00:48:56,304

Christine: Well, I think I should

pick something that can be versed

: 1030

00:48:56,407 --> 00:49:01,447

well, are we literally thinking

like one food item or like a meal?

: 1031

00:49:02,862 --> 00:49:04,252

Alexandra: Whatever, what would you like?

: 1032

00:49:04,302 --> 00:49:06,442

Christine: Well, I was sort of

thinking well, maybe I should pick like

: 1033

00:49:06,452 --> 00:49:08,832

pizza or something that I can like.

: 1034

00:49:09,852 --> 00:49:14,862

up, like it's the same type of meal, but

it's, I can be a little creative with it.

: 1035

00:49:15,222 --> 00:49:16,092

Well, okay.

: 1036

00:49:16,482 --> 00:49:18,482

I had to eat one thing

for the rest of my life.

: 1037

00:49:20,962 --> 00:49:23,462

I love a potato any form.

: 1038

00:49:23,942 --> 00:49:25,382

Chip, fry

: 1039

00:49:25,872 --> 00:49:26,472

Alexandra: Home fry.

: 1040

00:49:26,547 --> 00:49:30,987

Christine: fry, hash brown

Just naming potato forms.

: 1041

00:49:32,024 --> 00:49:34,744

Yeah, I w I guess I would

say it's a good one.

: 1042

00:49:34,754 --> 00:49:36,484

That starch is good.

: 1043

00:49:38,204 --> 00:49:38,964

Alexandra: So tasty.

: 1044

00:49:39,574 --> 00:49:40,564

Kind of like you, Christine.

: 1045

00:49:40,564 --> 00:49:42,994

I think if I had to pick something

that was versatile, I almost would

: 1046

00:49:42,994 --> 00:49:46,624

say salad because then you can

throw any sort of topping, but you

: 1047

00:49:46,624 --> 00:49:48,234

can also change the lettuce type.

: 1048

00:49:48,344 --> 00:49:49,824

But that feels a little cliche.

: 1049

00:49:49,884 --> 00:49:50,274

Okay.

: 1050

00:49:50,794 --> 00:49:55,044

Here, if you could only eat one

dessert and that was the only

: 1051

00:49:55,044 --> 00:49:56,894

dessert you could have your first

of your life, what would you have?

: 1052

00:49:56,944 --> 00:49:58,214

Christine: be like, you'd pick salad.

: 1053

00:49:58,214 --> 00:49:59,044

I pick potato.

: 1054

00:50:00,874 --> 00:50:02,754

We would be very interesting people.

: 1055

00:50:03,084 --> 00:50:03,414

Okay.

: 1056

00:50:03,454 --> 00:50:08,194

I like this dessert currently

soft serve ice cream on a

: 1057

00:50:08,194 --> 00:50:09,414

cone with rainbow sprinkles.

: 1058

00:50:10,684 --> 00:50:15,404

Loving that and I think it's because

summertime is here, but that's my

: 1059

00:50:15,414 --> 00:50:19,594

current favorite dessert And I could

eat that for the rest of my life

: 1060

00:50:19,594 --> 00:50:26,244

right now, but I'm sure that'll

change in a month but currently

: 1061

00:50:27,289 --> 00:50:28,569

Alexandra: Variety is the spice of life.

: 1062

00:50:28,694 --> 00:50:29,414

Christine: How about you?

: 1063

00:50:29,479 --> 00:50:30,149

Not

: 1064

00:50:30,346 --> 00:50:32,156

Alexandra: I'm trying to think

of something that I really enjoy.

: 1065

00:50:32,206 --> 00:50:35,166

I'm either thinking

truffles or macarons, right?

: 1066

00:50:35,166 --> 00:50:39,666

Because the flavors can be different, but

I really enjoy the texture of a macaron.

: 1067

00:50:39,696 --> 00:50:42,276

And then I really enjoy the

texture of a good truffle.

: 1068

00:50:42,816 --> 00:50:43,656

Chocolate truffle

: 1069

00:50:43,696 --> 00:50:45,436

just, yeah.

: 1070

00:50:45,846 --> 00:50:47,256

So yeah, one of those two, I think.

: 1071

00:50:47,866 --> 00:50:49,906

I had to have one to serve the

rest of my life, that'd be it.

: 1072

00:50:50,926 --> 00:50:51,756

Christine: Those are great.

: 1073

00:50:52,476 --> 00:50:54,176

love a macaron and I love a truffle.

: 1074

00:50:55,136 --> 00:50:59,516

Okay, if you could time travel,

what era would you visit and why?

: 1075

00:51:00,956 --> 00:51:03,396

Alexandra: Oh, I don't, oh, visit.

: 1076

00:51:03,456 --> 00:51:03,786

Okay.

: 1077

00:51:03,786 --> 00:51:05,026

At least I don't have to live there.

: 1078

00:51:05,596 --> 00:51:08,996

Christine: You're coming back

to the 21st century, eventually.

: 1079

00:51:10,133 --> 00:51:10,593

Alexandra: I don't know.

: 1080

00:51:10,593 --> 00:51:15,783

I feel like visiting the area, the era

of Bridgerton, like to Regency, like

: 1081

00:51:15,813 --> 00:51:17,968

Victorian, or like kind of around that.

: 1082

00:51:17,968 --> 00:51:19,108

That would be cool to visit.

: 1083

00:51:19,218 --> 00:51:21,158

I think, I don't know if I've

mentioned it on the podcast.

: 1084

00:51:21,518 --> 00:51:23,688

I'm a huge fan of modern indoor plumbing.

: 1085

00:51:23,788 --> 00:51:27,198

So living in the past, I've had

people who were like, Oh my gosh, you

: 1086

00:51:27,198 --> 00:51:29,838

would do so well in a different past.

: 1087

00:51:29,838 --> 00:51:33,688

And I'm like, I literally just finished

saying I prefer modern plumbing.

: 1088

00:51:33,978 --> 00:51:34,238

So

: 1089

00:51:35,128 --> 00:51:36,008

that, yeah.

: 1090

00:51:36,008 --> 00:51:37,978

What about you what era or period?

: 1091

00:51:37,978 --> 00:51:39,914

Yeah.

: 1092

00:51:39,914 --> 00:51:41,851

Yeah.

: 1093

00:51:41,851 --> 00:51:43,788

Okay.

: 1094

00:51:43,903 --> 00:51:49,303

Christine: I, I definitely Sort of

have a nostalgia for decades of the

: 1095

00:51:49,303 --> 00:51:56,633

past, but definitely like style,

not values that kind of a vibe.

: 1096

00:51:57,023 --> 00:52:03,143

So, I mean, I love the the romantization

of the twenties like flappers and,

: 1097

00:52:04,833 --> 00:52:11,243

the parties and the jazz and the sort

of, I feel like the twenties sort of.

: 1098

00:52:11,658 --> 00:52:17,528

mimics Regency era as well, cause

both times were very sort of luxurious

: 1099

00:52:17,648 --> 00:52:23,438

and indulgent, like that kind of, but

then like just juxtaposing that the

: 1100

00:52:23,448 --> 00:52:30,528

twenties, I also really have a for the

forties and the like when Frank Sinatra

: 1101

00:52:30,798 --> 00:52:33,258

and the crooners sort of came out.

: 1102

00:52:33,628 --> 00:52:39,018

So Yeah, those, I would love to visit

any of those eras just to visit.

: 1103

00:52:39,358 --> 00:52:40,408

And then, uh.

: 1104

00:52:40,892 --> 00:52:42,652

I'll even throw like another one in there.

: 1105

00:52:42,652 --> 00:52:45,462

I'd love to visit the seventies

and eighties, like the

: 1106

00:52:45,492 --> 00:52:47,012

era of my parents grew up.

: 1107

00:52:47,122 --> 00:52:50,882

Just because my, my, the, that,

that music sort of influenced

: 1108

00:52:51,472 --> 00:52:53,322

Frank Sinatra, why I bring him up.

: 1109

00:52:53,332 --> 00:52:54,692

My mom loves him.

: 1110

00:52:54,792 --> 00:52:58,102

Listen to his music all the time

growing up, but the seventies,

: 1111

00:52:58,132 --> 00:53:02,382

eighties rock was like my dad's

is my dad's bread and butter.

: 1112

00:53:02,382 --> 00:53:06,722

And I have such fond memories

thinking back to listening

: 1113

00:53:06,722 --> 00:53:08,762

to that music in summer time.

: 1114

00:53:08,762 --> 00:53:16,842

And so I'd love to visit that time and

sort of to experience how parents grew up.

: 1115

00:53:16,942 --> 00:53:19,062

So yeah, I know I can't

just pick one guys.

: 1116

00:53:19,122 --> 00:53:19,752

I'm sorry.

: 1117

00:53:19,872 --> 00:53:20,622

Just can't pick one.

: 1118

00:53:21,957 --> 00:53:24,317

Alexandra: This is also why our

friendship works because neither

: 1119

00:53:24,317 --> 00:53:25,987

of us can just go, this one thing.

: 1120

00:53:26,437 --> 00:53:26,877

But yeah,

: 1121

00:53:27,527 --> 00:53:27,747

So

: 1122

00:53:27,782 --> 00:53:28,442

Christine: like this one.

: 1123

00:53:29,192 --> 00:53:31,712

What's your favorite way

to unwind after a long day?

: 1124

00:53:32,428 --> 00:53:35,648

Alexandra: I think I mentioned it

earlier it was the writing on the

: 1125

00:53:35,898 --> 00:53:41,128

Peloton or working out mostly because it

feels like right now I've, as you have

: 1126

00:53:41,128 --> 00:53:42,878

mentioned my schedule is pretty packed.

: 1127

00:53:43,008 --> 00:53:43,528

So yeah.

: 1128

00:53:46,148 --> 00:53:51,438

I really enjoy working out and I'm like,

I don't have time to go to a separate gym.

: 1129

00:53:51,478 --> 00:53:53,358

So I really love the Peloton platform.

: 1130

00:53:53,388 --> 00:53:56,748

And I love that I can get on and

I can ride, or I can be a bit more

: 1131

00:53:56,748 --> 00:54:01,428

mellow and do yoga, or I can kill

my legs doing strength training.

: 1132

00:54:01,428 --> 00:54:04,808

I think I did a leg workout

like a week ago and the

: 1133

00:54:04,958 --> 00:54:05,128

Christine: You're still

: 1134

00:54:05,358 --> 00:54:06,528

Alexandra: next day I was like, ow.

: 1135

00:54:07,533 --> 00:54:08,263

I don't know.

: 1136

00:54:08,263 --> 00:54:12,733

I was like, I just have to do it more

frequently, but it is really nice.

: 1137

00:54:12,873 --> 00:54:19,733

So definitely on a like a long, hard day,

I will put on a EDM house trap techno ride

: 1138

00:54:20,183 --> 00:54:22,633

and just get lost in the beat and just go.

: 1139

00:54:22,873 --> 00:54:23,363

And I love it.

: 1140

00:54:24,033 --> 00:54:24,993

But what about you, Christine?

: 1141

00:54:25,033 --> 00:54:26,373

How do you like to unwind?

: 1142

00:54:26,518 --> 00:54:26,998

Christine: Oh.

: 1143

00:54:27,288 --> 00:54:35,518

Usually after a long day, I love the

stillness that comes when I come home.

: 1144

00:54:35,688 --> 00:54:37,348

Living alone allows for that.

: 1145

00:54:39,118 --> 00:54:42,518

So I just come home and I

sort of let my mind go blank.

: 1146

00:54:42,898 --> 00:54:49,314

I just, when I can, when I'm not super

stressed or anxious, and I throw

: 1147

00:54:49,314 --> 00:54:51,849

on an audiobook, Put some music on.

: 1148

00:54:52,499 --> 00:54:57,239

I'm also loving I've struggled

with because I live alone cooking

: 1149

00:54:57,249 --> 00:54:58,939

for myself just as one person.

: 1150

00:54:58,939 --> 00:55:04,099

Cooking for one is a hard concept at

times, but with my current job, I'm

: 1151

00:55:04,109 --> 00:55:07,549

around cooking and food all the time.

: 1152

00:55:09,049 --> 00:55:15,634

I feel like that for me is something

I I'm enjoying and helps me unwind.

: 1153

00:55:15,654 --> 00:55:18,584

I don't like the dishes part of

things as everyone knows now.

: 1154

00:55:19,034 --> 00:55:19,594

Thanks mom.

: 1155

00:55:19,904 --> 00:55:24,944

But yeah, I would say I come home

and I just sort of, I get comfy,

: 1156

00:55:25,914 --> 00:55:34,264

something yummy pop on a TV show or

call someone I love FaceTiming you, or.

: 1157

00:55:34,759 --> 00:55:41,219

It's my friend Tori, or my mom, or

sisters, and just sort of catching up

: 1158

00:55:41,219 --> 00:55:45,866

with everyone because life can get so

busy it's important to check in with those

: 1159

00:55:45,866 --> 00:55:47,846

people and see how their life's going.

: 1160

00:55:48,106 --> 00:55:49,956

So that's kind of how I like to unwind.

: 1161

00:55:50,417 --> 00:55:54,087

Alexandra: You've definitely pulled

me out of some low days when you call.

: 1162

00:55:54,107 --> 00:55:54,717

So I

: 1163

00:55:55,257 --> 00:55:56,047

appreciate you.

: 1164

00:55:56,122 --> 00:55:57,032

Christine: Oh, I appreciate you too.

: 1165

00:55:58,692 --> 00:55:59,182

It's a love

: 1166

00:55:59,812 --> 00:56:00,592

the Mirror Project.

: 1167

00:56:02,367 --> 00:56:06,127

Alexandra: So this question comes

from my friend, who we've had on

: 1168

00:56:06,127 --> 00:56:08,267

this podcast and I am so excited.

: 1169

00:56:08,467 --> 00:56:10,447

She is amazing.

: 1170

00:56:10,547 --> 00:56:12,257

Asking questions that make you think

: 1171

00:56:13,177 --> 00:56:13,797

or make you laugh.

: 1172

00:56:14,547 --> 00:56:15,637

So this question is for her.

: 1173

00:56:16,047 --> 00:56:18,527

What is the male equivalent

of receiving flowers?

: 1174

00:56:18,717 --> 00:56:22,287

She was thinking one day how women

get flowers as sweet mementos

: 1175

00:56:22,287 --> 00:56:25,830

on anniversaries or just because

but is there a parallel for men?

: 1176

00:56:26,725 --> 00:56:30,515

Christine: It's so, and I love

Traveris and her questions.

: 1177

00:56:30,575 --> 00:56:35,645

In my opinion, does there have to

be an equivalent get men flowers?

: 1178

00:56:35,825 --> 00:56:37,895

I think I love that idea.

: 1179

00:56:38,431 --> 00:56:41,011

last year for father's day,

I brought my dad flowers.

: 1180

00:56:41,241 --> 00:56:42,721

I think just normalizing it.

: 1181

00:56:42,721 --> 00:56:46,351

Flowers are beautiful

and men deserve that too.

: 1182

00:56:46,381 --> 00:56:50,381

I'm all for just because

I, that's my opinion.

: 1183

00:56:50,381 --> 00:56:51,031

What do you think?

: 1184

00:56:51,538 --> 00:56:56,088

Alexandra: So yesterday when I got this

text message I was, doing readings.

: 1185

00:56:56,408 --> 00:57:00,318

And I walked out to somebody who

was working at the shop where

: 1186

00:57:00,488 --> 00:57:01,698

I do readings once a month.

: 1187

00:57:02,088 --> 00:57:06,578

And I asked her the question and she

said her husband really likes flowers.

: 1188

00:57:06,958 --> 00:57:09,078

And she was like, why, what did you say?

: 1189

00:57:09,108 --> 00:57:13,778

And so I had said, I had texted my friend

back and I said my first thought was sex,

: 1190

00:57:13,778 --> 00:57:15,668

but that might be oversimplifying it.

: 1191

00:57:16,208 --> 00:57:16,608

Or.

: 1192

00:57:16,953 --> 00:57:20,623

I think before I said that or I showed

her the response and then she's well, why

: 1193

00:57:20,623 --> 00:57:22,953

don't you ask a young man who works there?

: 1194

00:57:22,963 --> 00:57:26,373

And so I was like, Hey, what

do you like instead of flowers?

: 1195

00:57:26,373 --> 00:57:30,703

What would you like to get from you

know, your girlfriend or something?

: 1196

00:57:31,173 --> 00:57:34,393

And he was saying a lot

of the guys that he knows.

: 1197

00:57:35,513 --> 00:57:36,793

Kind of they're very busy.

: 1198

00:57:36,843 --> 00:57:41,383

So they like time with their partner

doing something that they maybe

: 1199

00:57:41,383 --> 00:57:44,263

enjoy, which would be dependent on

the the person the guy in your life.

: 1200

00:57:44,313 --> 00:57:46,477

And he's like, what'd you say?

: 1201

00:57:46,546 --> 00:57:49,872

It's like sex, just sex.

: 1202

00:57:50,252 --> 00:57:52,702

So that might be oversimplifying

it, but I feel you know,

: 1203

00:57:52,762 --> 00:57:53,792

that might be also something

: 1204

00:57:54,177 --> 00:57:54,567

Christine: All right.

: 1205

00:57:54,907 --> 00:57:55,077

Yeah.

: 1206

00:57:55,347 --> 00:57:56,567

I mean, Hey, that works too.

: 1207

00:57:56,607 --> 00:57:57,467

I'm down for that.

: 1208

00:57:58,492 --> 00:58:01,012

Alexandra: clearly my mind is in

the gutter and it's been a while.

: 1209

00:58:01,142 --> 00:58:03,322

So, but I just laughed at that one.

: 1210

00:58:03,322 --> 00:58:04,192

That was really fun.

: 1211

00:58:04,252 --> 00:58:05,482

Christine: Think I love that.

: 1212

00:58:05,502 --> 00:58:08,772

I love quality time of all

: 1213

00:58:08,857 --> 00:58:10,087

Alexandra: however, that time in Spain.

: 1214

00:58:10,752 --> 00:58:15,572

Christine: I, but I also think, you know,

get the flowers, give them the flowers.

: 1215

00:58:16,002 --> 00:58:19,482

If you see a flower, it makes

you think of them, get it.

: 1216

00:58:19,547 --> 00:58:22,057

Alexandra: And I think then

Traveris had said texted me back.

: 1217

00:58:22,057 --> 00:58:23,157

She's she's heard food.

: 1218

00:58:23,937 --> 00:58:27,097

Food is the way like to a man's

heart is through his stomach.

: 1219

00:58:27,547 --> 00:58:27,897

So

: 1220

00:58:29,212 --> 00:58:29,292

Christine: Alright.

: 1221

00:58:30,527 --> 00:58:31,167

Alexandra: yeah, that was fun.

: 1222

00:58:31,452 --> 00:58:32,052

Christine: Okay.

: 1223

00:58:32,127 --> 00:58:34,257

Alexandra: I was like, I have

to share that story because my

: 1224

00:58:34,567 --> 00:58:35,877

mind went straight to the gutter.

: 1225

00:58:36,872 --> 00:58:38,082

Christine: Oh, Alexandra.

: 1226

00:58:38,932 --> 00:58:39,822

silly Alexandra.

: 1227

00:58:42,112 --> 00:58:42,702

Okay.

: 1228

00:58:42,812 --> 00:58:45,532

Yeah, these next several questions

are courtesy of Traveris.

: 1229

00:58:45,672 --> 00:58:47,202

So thank you for that.

: 1230

00:58:47,292 --> 00:58:49,432

Are there any parts of your

life that feel performative?

: 1231

00:58:49,433 --> 00:58:53,652

Are you performing for,

who are you performing for?

: 1232

00:58:53,712 --> 00:58:54,182

Others?

: 1233

00:58:54,517 --> 00:58:55,237

Or yourself.

: 1234

00:58:56,067 --> 00:58:59,127

parts of your life do you feel you

show up the most authentically?

: 1235

00:58:59,387 --> 00:58:59,717

That is

: 1236

00:59:00,387 --> 00:59:01,177

Alexandra: Oh, wow.

: 1237

00:59:01,647 --> 00:59:02,157

Christine: in one.

: 1238

00:59:03,857 --> 00:59:06,647

Alexandra: Honestly, that could

be a whole topic on its own.

: 1239

00:59:07,117 --> 00:59:07,947

Christine: it really can.

: 1240

00:59:09,217 --> 00:59:10,117

Episode topic.

: 1241

00:59:10,187 --> 00:59:11,757

You heard it here first, folks.

: 1242

00:59:13,077 --> 00:59:13,607

Alexandra: All right.

: 1243

00:59:14,062 --> 00:59:15,592

Let's rapid fire it, Christine.

: 1244

00:59:15,692 --> 00:59:17,112

Quickly, what would you say?

: 1245

00:59:17,357 --> 00:59:24,397

Christine: Yes, others because

I'm an introvert and I feel like

: 1246

00:59:24,457 --> 00:59:26,737

the world favors extroverts.

: 1247

00:59:27,127 --> 00:59:32,177

So I feel like I have to perform, put on a

per, like a performance version of myself.

: 1248

00:59:32,497 --> 00:59:37,057

And only around those like family

found family, dear friends.

: 1249

00:59:37,057 --> 00:59:38,967

Do I feel like I let that down?

: 1250

00:59:39,407 --> 00:59:43,417

But I work in retail, so I feel like

there's an aspect of that's performative.

: 1251

00:59:43,837 --> 00:59:47,357

What parts do you feel you

show up most authentically?

: 1252

00:59:48,402 --> 00:59:52,078

My, my friend's family,

here, honestly, too.

: 1253

00:59:52,118 --> 00:59:52,258

I

: 1254

00:59:52,728 --> 00:59:53,928

this isn't a performance.

: 1255

00:59:54,058 --> 00:59:55,588

I would say that rapid fire.

: 1256

00:59:55,618 --> 00:59:56,508

How about you go

: 1257

00:59:57,658 --> 00:59:58,168

Alexandra: Okay.

: 1258

00:59:58,578 --> 01:00:01,530

Yes, a mixture of both myself and others.

: 1259

01:00:01,830 --> 01:00:05,830

Because I feel, weirdly enough, some of

my family don't feel very comfortable

: 1260

01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,620

around, so I feel like I have to

put on a different version of me.

: 1261

01:00:09,020 --> 01:00:12,440

Same at work, I feel like there's like

professional Alexandra versus personal,

: 1262

01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:17,150

although I am working to kind of break

down those walls and integrate more fully.

: 1263

01:00:17,630 --> 01:00:19,900

What do I, where do I

show up authentically?

: 1264

01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:23,017

I feel like, you know, with some of

my really close friends, a lot of

: 1265

01:00:23,017 --> 01:00:26,917

the found family I have, I don't feel

the need to, you know, hide who I am

: 1266

01:00:26,917 --> 01:00:31,277

authentically because that's how I

met them, which is really cool here

: 1267

01:00:31,277 --> 01:00:32,977

with you, Christine always with you.

: 1268

01:00:32,977 --> 01:00:36,782

I can just say Hey, You know, I can

say anything to Christine and she's

: 1269

01:00:36,942 --> 01:00:38,662

not Oh my gosh, no, don't share that.

: 1270

01:00:39,232 --> 01:00:47,412

And when I am doing my readings and

stuff for people, I feel like stepping

: 1271

01:00:47,412 --> 01:00:51,702

into that version of me, which is,

feels more like me feels very authentic.

: 1272

01:00:51,882 --> 01:00:53,172

So bringing that forward,

: 1273

01:00:54,357 --> 01:00:54,537

Christine: All

: 1274

01:00:54,702 --> 01:00:56,412

Alexandra: I feel like, but I

do feel like we need to come

: 1275

01:00:56,412 --> 01:00:57,352

back to this as a whole episode.

: 1276

01:00:57,392 --> 01:00:58,782

Christine: Whole topic, whole episode,

: 1277

01:00:59,808 --> 01:01:01,468

Alexandra: Another heavy

hitter from Traveris.

: 1278

01:01:01,928 --> 01:01:04,548

What is one area of your

life you self sabotage in?

: 1279

01:01:05,325 --> 01:01:06,285

Christine: Oh gosh.

: 1280

01:01:06,345 --> 01:01:09,345

I feel like I self sabotage

myself a lot of times.

: 1281

01:01:09,405 --> 01:01:12,095

Like it's my relationships with others.

: 1282

01:01:12,445 --> 01:01:17,825

My confidence in the workplace have

grown exponentially, but I still feel

: 1283

01:01:17,825 --> 01:01:24,535

like When it comes to myself, when I

tend to like, I'm my own worst critic.

: 1284

01:01:24,585 --> 01:01:26,895

So I feel like that's one

area that I need to work on.

: 1285

01:01:26,945 --> 01:01:29,015

That's where I self

sabotage a lot at the time.

: 1286

01:01:29,115 --> 01:01:29,495

Yeah.

: 1287

01:01:29,575 --> 01:01:30,095

How about you?

: 1288

01:01:30,630 --> 01:01:32,250

Alexandra: Yes, I do self sabotage.

: 1289

01:01:32,330 --> 01:01:36,850

Working very hard in therapy

to not do that so much anymore.

: 1290

01:01:37,250 --> 01:01:40,080

I feel like a big one has been my health.

: 1291

01:01:40,630 --> 01:01:44,980

Mostly because for 15 years I struggled,

you know, with an eating disorder and

: 1292

01:01:44,980 --> 01:01:48,680

losing weight and nothing was working

and I think I would give up too easily.

: 1293

01:01:48,690 --> 01:01:51,010

So I think I would self sabotage in

that way when it wasn't happening

: 1294

01:01:51,010 --> 01:01:53,110

quickly enough, then I would just go up.

: 1295

01:01:53,230 --> 01:01:55,730

So that is an area that I

am currently turning around.

: 1296

01:01:56,450 --> 01:02:01,230

But I also like you, Christine, I

think I self sabotage in areas of

: 1297

01:02:01,230 --> 01:02:03,650

confidence and putting myself out there.

: 1298

01:02:03,650 --> 01:02:06,520

So I really appreciate that

this project that we're doing

: 1299

01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:08,490

is an opportunity to work on it.

: 1300

01:02:09,090 --> 01:02:11,420

weekly, you know, so.

: 1301

01:02:11,625 --> 01:02:12,435

Christine: absolutely.

: 1302

01:02:12,861 --> 01:02:13,451

All right.

: 1303

01:02:13,736 --> 01:02:14,196

Alexandra: right.

: 1304

01:02:14,401 --> 01:02:14,871

Christine: Last one.

: 1305

01:02:15,781 --> 01:02:17,701

is another episode topic.

: 1306

01:02:19,161 --> 01:02:21,571

Okay, I'm going to start with this quote.

: 1307

01:02:22,731 --> 01:02:25,251

Anger is the part of you

that loves you the most.

: 1308

01:02:28,791 --> 01:02:32,031

Anger is usually present

as an indicator, right?

: 1309

01:02:33,241 --> 01:02:35,021

what's your relationship with anger?

: 1310

01:02:35,031 --> 01:02:40,581

Do you listen to it or suppress it because

you feel it is to mean a negative emotion?

: 1311

01:02:41,879 --> 01:02:42,399

Alexandra: Okay.

: 1312

01:02:43,219 --> 01:02:43,659

Whoa.

: 1313

01:02:44,929 --> 01:02:48,609

I feel like this ties into the last

question about self sabotage because

: 1314

01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:51,510

I think I would for a long time.

: 1315

01:02:51,510 --> 01:02:54,300

And I want to say maybe the past

five, six months is when I really

: 1316

01:02:54,340 --> 01:02:59,550

started changing my relationship

with emotions and feeling and not,

: 1317

01:02:59,820 --> 01:03:03,570

Shoving it down or like suppressing

it as yeah, this is a negative motion.

: 1318

01:03:03,570 --> 01:03:07,260

I don't want to be an angry

person versus listening to

: 1319

01:03:07,270 --> 01:03:08,820

what is that anger telling me.

: 1320

01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,010

So I feel like I have a better

relationship with anger.

: 1321

01:03:11,010 --> 01:03:16,520

I'm using it more as a, like a barometric

tool pressure of like, where am I

: 1322

01:03:16,670 --> 01:03:21,680

sitting with this and why am I so

angry and using it as a cue to explore.

: 1323

01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:23,030

But what about you, Christine?

: 1324

01:03:24,035 --> 01:03:31,055

Christine: Yeah, my, my relationship with

anger, for me, agree anger when is when

: 1325

01:03:31,055 --> 01:03:33,055

anger is present is usually indicator.

: 1326

01:03:33,065 --> 01:03:36,275

And I feel like it's sort

of one of the last emotions.

: 1327

01:03:36,515 --> 01:03:40,535

It's like when you really know something

is and it's, something's bothering you.

: 1328

01:03:40,585 --> 01:03:43,435

Some, you need to figure out like,

what's the underlying thing here.

: 1329

01:03:43,435 --> 01:03:47,165

Cause I feel like that only

presents itself once you get to a

: 1330

01:03:47,165 --> 01:03:49,285

point a last straw kind of thing.

: 1331

01:03:49,995 --> 01:03:54,178

So my relationship with anger is,

you know, actually don't think it's,

: 1332

01:03:54,378 --> 01:04:00,468

I mean, yes, how people act on anger

can be negative, but I don't think

: 1333

01:04:00,478 --> 01:04:02,668

anger itself is a negative emotion.

: 1334

01:04:02,968 --> 01:04:03,518

I think

: 1335

01:04:04,308 --> 01:04:04,658

Alexandra: Yeah.

: 1336

01:04:04,728 --> 01:04:10,568

Christine: It's one of the many

your body or subconscious makes you

: 1337

01:04:11,428 --> 01:04:13,782

sort of understand what's going on.

: 1338

01:04:14,052 --> 01:04:15,132

When something's wrong.

: 1339

01:04:15,522 --> 01:04:18,682

I do listen to it and I

don't let it control me.

: 1340

01:04:18,702 --> 01:04:20,272

I try not to let it control me.

: 1341

01:04:20,612 --> 01:04:22,812

And it usually takes

a lot to get me angry.

: 1342

01:04:22,872 --> 01:04:26,672

I would say, I don't know if you

agree, but I feel like I tend to

: 1343

01:04:26,962 --> 01:04:28,802

become when I become frustrated.

: 1344

01:04:29,542 --> 01:04:32,982

In the past, I've been like,

I shut down that's my my.

: 1345

01:04:33,267 --> 01:04:34,907

Alexandra: Instead of

lashing out, you go down,

: 1346

01:04:35,507 --> 01:04:40,751

Christine: coping mechanism is I shut

down usually, and I'm not trying to

: 1347

01:04:40,801 --> 01:04:45,431

necessarily suppress it, but it's a way

like how I react and try and protect

: 1348

01:04:45,431 --> 01:04:51,151

myself in certain situations, but when I

do get angry, it's usually when people I

: 1349

01:04:51,151 --> 01:04:58,438

love most are hurt or are hurting And I

would love to talk on length about this.

: 1350

01:04:58,448 --> 01:05:02,428

So I think this is an episode

topic that we should revisit,

: 1351

01:05:02,448 --> 01:05:04,518

but where I'll stop for now.

: 1352

01:05:05,748 --> 01:05:08,428

Alexandra: So that's two episodes

we have to put on our episodes topic

: 1353

01:05:08,428 --> 01:05:13,358

list for: 2025

consider and put back in, in rotation.

: 1354

01:05:14,185 --> 01:05:15,835

Well, wow.

: 1355

01:05:16,625 --> 01:05:17,095

Okay.

: 1356

01:05:17,154 --> 01:05:22,945

Christine: thought this was going

to be a quick episode, but yes,

: 1357

01:05:22,975 --> 01:05:25,365

Alexandra: I was like,

not what we get going.

: 1358

01:05:25,865 --> 01:05:26,285

Okay.

01:05:26,325 --> 01:05:26,575
