Speaker 1 (01:12):
Hell yeah, listen after I sent you that carpet cleaning video, bitch,
I was out of there.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
You know. I love a good dirty rug ass video. Like,
nothing makes me happier than watch a dirty rug get clean.
I don't know why, girl, I should be happy in
a chokehold, don't. Yes, It's like, how did that video?
For so long? I watched the whole thing? How did
it get that dirty? Like that's what I want to know,
Like do they just there's no way that was in
no one's house. They're putting it in mud and just

(01:39):
letting its shit there for days or sing.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Oh they pulling out a hoarder's house.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
No, even the horror House ain't got that.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
I did see one video where they pulled some shit
out of like a big ass poll of trash. They
pulled a rug from a big ass poly trash and
then clean it. And now you think people be sending
them rugs to clean.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Also, I love that shit me sending me there? So
you know what I like? You know how to get
me off? Girl? What did I do for the New Year?
All right? So me, my mom and my sister, we
watched church, We watched the Brook online and we brought
that into twelve o'clock and then we ate grapes under

(02:18):
the table.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
What's that ritual?

Speaker 2 (02:23):
So shit that was going viral and talk about eating
twelfth grapes under the twelve table at twelve o'clock, so
you could like manifest your husband or whatever you wanted,
and we just ate one and then thought of what
we wanted for each with each grape, twelve different things,
and tell you about them. Big ass grapes I'm talking about.
God damn new brace was big as I'm like, I

(02:45):
was full as hell trying to eat the grapes. And
after that, we went outside and we popped a little
bit of fireworks and we bought a I bought a
big ass box and then we only popped like eight
of them and came in the I was like, Okay,
that was cute, girl.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
I was never said with a nigga snoring next that
nigga went to sleep like nine o'clock.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Oh he slept the New Year. And yes, I didn't drink. Listen.
That's how I know I'm getting more mature because I
was used.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
To like to bitch there one say, oh y'all go ahead.
Glass getting more mature.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Because I didn't drink, not one single liquor. Well, I
had been sick, so I could not drink anyway. But uh,
a part of me wanted me like a little cocktail
champagne or something. But instead I just had my grapes
and went to bed church I like, I will participate
in the church service, and typically I'll go to one,
but go to church then the club. That's been my life,

(03:46):
you know. But now I just saw church online, ate
some grapes and pop some fireworks and went to bed
like a real auntie.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
You know, every January one, I do feel new.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
You don't feel new.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
I got a new start, like I got a new
twelve months to do some shit, Like I really be
feeling like that every January one.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
You know what, I know, I feel new, but I
don't feel as new. It's spring. For whatever reason. Around March,
that's when I start feeling my newness. Well that's about Easter,
you know. That's not about the the flowers blooming, all
the dead things going on, like the earth makes me

(04:29):
feel new for whatever reason something my new year really
don't start. That's when I start working out. It's March.
It's not January one for me.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
It's wait till March.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Tomorrow. The back of my arms says, start now.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
Today today, And I feel motivated too, Like so I
know for sure I don't do enough protein in my diet.
So now listen, y'all. For this whole month, all I'm
eating is like protein and potato, like salmon and potato,
shrimp and potato, or maybe I might add agree in

(05:07):
like asparagus or something like that, or Brussels sprouts. But
I notice, like when I keep like a very simple diet,
i'd been losing the most weight. Yeah, that's how I'm
about to eat the same shit every day for this month.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
See what happened, Amen, let's go, let's go.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Go, get y'all some potatoes while they don't sell.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
I had the neurovirus and I haven't gotten on the scale,
but I do feel a bit slimmer from not eating
for like three days, almost three days. Like the first
day I didn't eat anything, and then the second day
I just had some ramen noodle broth, no noodles, just
the broth off of it. And then the next day

(05:46):
I had the same thing with rice, and then I
had like apple sauce packets and that was it. And
I feel great now. I feel like my second chin.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Yeah, so well that should kick your doy off in
the new year, right, y's the last year we died
in Okay?

Speaker 2 (06:03):
We changing our life. Yeah, we're not even dyeting. We're changing.
It's a lifestyle change. Living in, living in? What living
it like? We about to fuck it living in? Listen,
get in the sins man. So Mariah Carey has a
new man. Okay, we're that nigga been smiling so big,

(06:26):
that nigga is happy forty twenty five Anderson.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Pat y'all, Mariah carreyet. Well, we assume right. People are
assuming because they saw them out to dinner twice now
and holding hands this last time. Papa Rozzi caught them.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
And that nigga showing all his teeth like Nelly with
a shanty.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
Just trying to get that Christmas up out of her.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
He looks happy, He looks so happy. They stayed together forever.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
No, I think she a lot, man. I think Ry
Carrey probably a whole fucking lot.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
But it makes you that just enough for him.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Some men like that, like someone like extra women. I
like Mariah Carey.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Me too, so I'm hopeful for them. Did you see
what Drea had to say about me, me and Anderson?

Speaker 1 (07:15):
She basically said that people be having selective outrage because
there's a seventeen year gap. Mariah Carey is fifty five
and the impact is thirty eight. Still grown ass fucking man.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
How you gonna compare them with old ass people to
you and that young man, Like, it's not the same.
I mean, the age gap is the same, but the
maturity level is not. And that is the difference.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
And maybe she's not mature, because how do you not
know that? Like now, like, why you not these people
about to be on your ass all over again, bitch,
because you just cannot compare the two. We already know
that men mature way later than women already, right right here,
you are, damn there forty yourself and this little boy
just now being able to buy alcohol, right you trying

(08:01):
to compare the two grown ass people who've been married
before we're children and all that, having a whole life.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
No, it's not the same. It's not the same. Sorry,
but it's not the same. It's not.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
You tried it.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
You definitely tried it. You can come back in twenty
years and and say that.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
But right now, you just can't if y'all go together
in twenty because he might be a whole nother person
by the time he gets to be thirty eight, right
you know, and you're gonna be real owned by the
time well not well yeah, hell.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah, you're about sixty so.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Her tweet was, uh, that's uh, that's that seventeen year gap.
Smile go Meani with y'all selective assids. That's what her
tweet was.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
She really think that's the same. That's crazy seventeen year gaps. Girl.
It is a double standard. Get over it. They exist.
Double standards exist because we're a robox blook bucks ibnut.
I don't even know where that is. Oh did you see?

(09:06):
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are finally divorced after an
eight year divorce. It took them eight years, and I
guess it was separated for eight years. Duran, yep, shame
got the right. Yes, one of the daughters changed her
name to Jolie her last name. The daughter changed her

(09:28):
name from Pitt to Joey damn. So what you did, nigga?

Speaker 1 (09:33):
J Brad Pitt looking weird nowadays?

Speaker 3 (09:35):
Too?

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Remember I fine, he was, you know, the older white man.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
She's still pretty, Angelina Joli.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Yeah, she still looks good. But you know, they don't
always age the same.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Yeah, we you know, white people age pretty quick anyway,
but I still different. Women still be looking younger than
the men. No hair at twenty five?

Speaker 2 (10:01):
Yeah, sometimes as he.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Looked weird though. He looks like he morphing into some
other ship.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, well, I'm happy that they finally got that complete
because damn, eight years, it's a long time to be
splitting up with somebody. Shit.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Black people really don't get divorced like they may they
might be black. Maybe it's finalized because they're ready to
marry other people, because that's what my mom and daddy did.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
My mama.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
My mama fally filed for divorce for my daddy like
a month before she married my stepdaddy.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
That's what my daddy did. My mom and my dad
was still married like twenty years after they had been apart,
and an excuse to not marrying nobody else. I'm already
I'm still married. Shame.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
So the Internet is going crazy because Eve with her family,
mister Maximilian, she has a son with him for Christmas.
There's a photo out there now. They posted their family
photo and it's his family right because even as a
black woman. So they're at a table and some big
mansion probably out the country somewhere, and Eve is.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
At one side of the table.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Her husband is at the other side of the table,
which I think traditionally, like that's how she's supposed to be.
Now she was sitting on a bean bag. I don't know,
but that part how y'all run out of chairs in
a mansion? But whatever?

Speaker 2 (11:23):
And why she gets the bean bag?

Speaker 1 (11:24):
Oh, maybe it's for posture, I don't know. But that's
the only part. What that I noticed that was like, weird,
she's married?

Speaker 2 (11:32):
Was weird?

Speaker 1 (11:36):
What's row with y'all? What what's wrong with it?

Speaker 2 (11:39):
It did all right, it didn't look weird per se,
but get out. It did look a bit uncomfortable because
it was just, you know, it was more black face
in that white room, and it just looked uncomfortable. But
that's her family essentially, So I mean it is because we.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Ever seen any other family of Eves that she have siblings?
Where's her mama, where's her daddy? Like this week when
she got with this man, this is when we started
seeing family.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
So maybe this is her family.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Yes, you know, and people from New York they just
be is she from New York and Philly?

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Philly? The New England.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
People from New England they be really strained from their
families a lot of times, like they be having living
parents that they don't fuck with like they did that
we talked to him. Yes, I know a few bitches
from New York that do not speak to their parents
and haven't spoken to their parents in years.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
Damn they. I don't think they see family like we
do in the South. I don't know New York. Y'all
shout out to us and let us know. Is that
a thing up there, New England? Because even if you
need help, blake, bitch, we need We love you, girls,
We love you. Were terrible like people are so mean.

(12:56):
People are so mean, you know, like they were saying
hateful things. But she looks very wealthy, you know, she
looks wealthy. So and I hope she's happy, you know,
but would she be happier? This is my question? I mean,
I mean, first of all, who gives a fuck? Right
is her life to live? And if she's happy, she's happy.

(13:18):
But would she be happy if she had that same
thing going on but with a completely black table. Would
it change the level of happiness or does that even matter?

Speaker 1 (13:30):
I don't know. I mean, it's preference, you know. For me,
that's what I like to see. Like, you know, I'm
not like one of those people who think success is
living in a neighborhood full of white people for me,
like I aspire to live in an affluent black neighborhood,
right Okay, but that may not be her thing, and
I do feel like we might be getting a little
bit more away from like race, I hope anyway in

(13:54):
twenty twenty five, Like, I'm not saying don't see race
and don't see color. I'm not saying in that, but
love is love, is it not? That's her family.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
I'm about to start dating outside my race.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
You're about to divest out the black community.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
I'm not going to divest, but I'm just going to
not or Yeah, I'm gonna not turn down white man
so much.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
I mean they just be looking happy. I've only seen
one like crazy ass like this girl who would post
like her relationship with her white baby daddy and he's
putting her and her baby out of an apartment when
the shit got real bad. But you just put up
at an old ass white man.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
If I started dating a white guy, do that mean
I gotta stop flat out in my leave out and
blending it together with the what's it about it?

Speaker 1 (14:55):
You could be yourself for real, for real with others.
I think that's what black men probably like to like,
they don't have to show up a certain way right
to appease this particular community.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
Like I don't know something about a nappy weave with on.
A black girl with a white guy is go together
like that.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Social mediatren as funny as fuck. It's the thing systems
like that though, those those are a certain type of
like I think white men are just now starting to
get fly girls, right, but we know the aesthetic of
the black women that normally date white men, and they
act different, you know what I'm saying, Like they already act.

(15:36):
They're already different. They from the major in a way that, yeah,
they were born that way.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
I love y'all still my sisters, and I love y'all.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
You had any predictions for twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
I yes, I do. As a matter of fact, I
predict a stimulus hit. I predict the stimulus check.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
They do have one fourteen that's supposed to be coming
out for people who didn't take advantage of it before.
But it's like.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
Dying this.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
You got to create your own stimulus this.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
Year, Okay. And then I also predict they get it.
I got one. Oh, I'm pretty sure I got a stemmy.
I want stimmy. Swear us all every year.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
We should get a stemmy every January.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
Yeah, and then I predict that I'm gonna get a
man this year because I ate the motherfucking grapes and
beat you better work, y'all. Motherfuckers stay trying to manifest people.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
Like what I always try to focus on is like
mental clarity, because with that comes all the other things.
They just be trying to do witchcraft just to get
a man all the time, y'all, skipping the money, y'all
skipping mental health, like you.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Know all, I should know that we want that too, But.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
But the main focus is on this opposite sex.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
No, that ain't the main focus. That's just what I
predict for this year because you read the great shut
up laying up with your digg other night talking about
your clarity. Hey, big your clod, that gonta be.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
Trying to work on my mental clarity everree day.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
But don't talk to me because I want a bigger
my man too. Oh yeah, my man, my man. My
man was sleep by Dada Glyde. He was sleep by
that girl.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Fuck you girls, you always want what they don't got, boy,
until you get.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Ship. What's your so?

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Okay, now I said this since August, right, Baltimore Ravens
are going to the super Bowl. I don't given a
fuck what y'all talk about. I feel like they are.
I feel real strongly about it. Lamar Jackson has been
doing a phenomenal job. They moved up from plus one
thousand on a go betting websites to plus seven hundred.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Now, okay, so they are moving up.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
I feel like now they may. I can't make the
prediction that they'll win, but I believe that they are
going to the super Bowl and they will play against
Kansas City.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
So that's one of my predictions. Okay, I don't know
nothing about that.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Let me see.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
I predict that I'm gonna go to the super Bowl party.
And I bought this cute little jersey. They got Stequens
on it. You already got it, and I hope one
of the teams match the Colors.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
I think this year is going to start a golden
age for us, Like it's gonna be a lot more technology,
like rapid rapidly being like put out there. You know
they already got this technology, right, but they just introduce
it to us in little spurts and act like, yeah,
what about.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
That quantum quantum calculator not calculator quantum.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Uh oh that Google has Yeah yeah, I mean that
that ship is already here, like these things already existed.
I don't believe nothing new. It's our ancestors from the
future left all the shit for us, and now the
people who are in power and who have control of
the things, they'd just be giving us little bits, bits

(19:33):
and pieces every other year because you think they've been
didn't have like they've been had cell phones, you know
what I'm saying. But we got cell phones got twenty
years ago now, yeah, something like.

Speaker 2 (19:43):
That quantum computing, Yes it is. Yeah, imagine like the
iPhone forty. You're gonna be able to see the future,
not even just see the future, go to it the
fuck Yeah. Airlines, I remember when we used to fly
on planes. Bitch, No, we just used our cell phone

(20:05):
in quantum joke basically.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
I also, you know one thing, I feel real hopeful
about the future, Like I feel like these next few years,
like America and particularly gonna be the most successful. We're
gonna see a lot of good things. But I still
feel like there are gonna be some hiccups, right.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Oh, absolutely, So.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
I feel like there's always some fucking wicked ass man
in a laboratory somewhere trying to figure out how to
keep the human body alive forever, and they gonna funk up.
So you might see some zombies this year, some more zombies.
I already seen some zombies in real life.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
Some more zombies. They I think they like zombies. Who
some of these drugs that these people is using got
them looking like zombies already?

Speaker 1 (20:53):
Oh yeah, what what was that about Joe Budden runing
around naked?

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Was he was? He was wondering like, yeah, somebody said that,
Well he got in some trouble for like running down
the street. It's naked. Maybe he lost a bed or
maybe he was on and it got arrested.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
So many times I ever seen like a human being
running around naked. They definitely was on drugs, are drunk,
that's not I have to but like in a secluded,
secluded place where you don't have to worry about random
police pulling up, right, same, Yeah, we definitely not ran
and not even high or drunk, just betting each other.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
To do it. I was, yeah, I was drunk though
it was actually New Year's in England and I ran
down the street naked man. Good times. He might have
just been having fun, just.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
Dick slinging all out there. I hear that, Joe Budden anyway,
after this break. You know, every year we talk about
like set and goals and New Year's resolutions, like that's
usually our first episode, right mm hmm, But how do
you actually execute on those goals? Like for me, visualization

(22:09):
is one of the main tools I use for manifestations
I want to talk about.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
As a woman. So she is God, damn, We're going
to get into it. Period.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
We'll be back.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
All right. Listen.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
I did try to organize this conversation a little bit,
so I'm all over the place, and tell me what
another thing I want to do. I want to do
goid it meditation. Can we do that because that's one
of my goals for this year.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
I want to do it. At first, you tell me
what it is?

Speaker 1 (22:40):
Excuse me? Yeah, I think I'm allergic to my cat
at this point.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
I don't know, but.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
I feel like something be going on with my damn
nasal cavity. You know, visualization is just like uh, basically
imagining yourself already doing the thing thing that you want
to do, right, So you got to put yourself in
that frequency with your subconscious mind.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
M hm.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
You set it and forget it, essentially forget it. Yeah,
like when you harping on something like wanting it to
happen so bad you kind of it might get further
away from you.

Speaker 2 (23:23):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
So sometimes when you just set the thing, this is
what I want to do. It's like planting a seed, right.
So if you plan a seed, you're not about to
dig it up every day to see if the ship
grown or not. You set it and forget it and
every day you water it.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Right.

Speaker 1 (23:39):
So this is what to me what visualization is about. Okay, Okay,
So I wanted to start by talk about the Bible,
talk about God, my favorite thing with real religion when

(24:00):
people don't really I'm not. I don't want to say
religion because I don't want to confuse religion with spirituality.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Right.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
So for me, I am is one of the most
important just statement spirit right, because anything bad to I
am is what you become. So people got to be real.
I just messaged one of my homegirls the other day
because she has she has like some some form of cancer.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Right.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
I'm sorry, but when people be like my cancer, like
taking ownership of these things, you're never going to be
able to release them. It's not your cancer, doesn't belong
to you. Fuck that shit right, right? So you know,
in twenty twenty five, we just manifesting like real good health.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
Amen for all the good things. And I was in there,
crazing guy into the new year. I was dancing and
I was like, look at me dancing. I can't dance
just couple of months ago and I'm in here broke
a sweid.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
So anything y'all add to I am going this year,
we're not adding anything negative to I am. So I
am successful. Okay, I'm confident. I am powerful, I am strong.
I am getting better and better every day. All I
need is within me right now and everything else is

(25:24):
on the way. I woke up motivated. I am unstoppable.
I am an unstoppable force of nature. Doesn't that feel good?
They ain't the god of meditation.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
Though, that ain't the part I was doing it.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
And my favorite part about so people do different things
of visualization.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
So you could do your uh vision board. I do
a vision.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
Board every year, or I at least update the original one.
I did subscribe to Canva. You don't have to do Canva.
You can get old magazines, cut up some pictures, put
some shit together in the book, Like that's like the
oldest I think more popular thing or tool people use

(26:14):
for visualization, Like they map out what they want using
the images. So you can do that, or you can
draw it, or you can just go on a computer
if you got office or one the thing, paint tink,
clip pictures from different places, or use you can use Pinterest.
I guess to do a vision board too, but I

(26:38):
like the mental imagery. I like to close my eyes
and already see myself where I want to be, like
the where I missed the mark the last time, like
doing this. So when we did the first live show
last year, m I was so fucking nervous. I was

(26:59):
so nervous because I didn't I wasn't prepared. I feel like, right,
and then I didn't see myself there already doing the thing,
and I feel like that, Yeah, I feel like that's
a very important. When you got something real important to do,
you need to already see yourself doing it. You need
to already see what you're gonna say. You need to
already see all the things. So it's almost like I

(27:24):
already did this.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
You didn't appear nervous to me, girl.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
What and maybe and maybe that might be something that
may never go away.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
You know what I'm saying. You may always be nervous.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Maybe we need to ask somebody who performs a lot
like all y'all always nervous.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
Yeah, I think I was nervous, but I wasn't. I
was so excited. I can't wait to get up on
that stage. I can't wait to do it again.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
I can't wait to do it where we have more
creative control over the whole thing, like when we do
our own shit. That's what I can't wait to do.
And that's coming twenty twenty five. Also, it's not a protection,
it's a fact. And okay, so look out for a
live show show soon. And I'm already visualizing, visualizing myself
doing the thing.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
I sent you a location too this week. Did you
see it? I send it Tea again, No.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I did, I think I did. It was a I
think I did in Charlotte. Yeah, that's our first stop, y'all.
So mental imagery the process of creating vivid mental images
using the imagination. Visualization can be used in many ways,
including relaxation, using a guided imagery to keep to help

(28:42):
the body relax, for example, closing your eyes and imagine
imagining being in a relaxed place. So what's a happy
place for you?

Speaker 2 (28:51):
The bank?

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Okay, okay, eyes and visualize yourself in a big and
I'm joking, like shit, that's a happy place for me,
especially if I'm getting withdrawn but are deposited.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Either one is good.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
I like deposits.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
I don't like having to take money out because I
mean I'm about to go spending somewhere. I like me.
That means I'm about to go circulated somewhere. Excuse me, listen.
I like having money to circulate. But I think a
happy space for me. Home, home, candlelight, lits, everything's clean.
I got a nice little joint, a good book, and

(29:37):
a fine man next to me. It's good. And a
glass of water with a big penis.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
That's your happy space.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
It's some good food. What else I need?

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Definitely like a clean environment.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
Yes, nothing like a clean space. Did y'all clean up
your house for listen? Black people, I don't know if
there's a white with black people. We do not let
the new year catch us with no dirty clothes, with
no dishes in the sea, no trash in the trash can.
The house is going to be clean for the new year. Look,
what do you feel about the black eyed peas and

(30:14):
collar greens and stuff like that?

Speaker 1 (30:16):
So I didn't get any of those things because I'm
not eating that.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
No.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
I probably could have gotten some greens, but I hate
black eyed peas, never ever like them, and I feel
like they probably only taste a little good when you
got the neck bones and all that shit. And I
don't eat that. Yeah, your mama cooks the Yeah, she definitely.
I know my mama cooking her black eyed peas and
collar greens. I don't know if everybody else does that

(30:44):
outside the South.

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Does anybody like do y'all do that? Is it a
tradition to me?

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Because it's like your greens is for your money and the.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
Black eyed peas for your wisdom?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Right, So yeah, it's like a whole ritual for New
Year's you do.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
I typically don't eat that shit. But I'm an east
On today because twenty twenty four turn me every which way.
But lose bitch, shame. Oh goodness, I had a stomach
virus right before the New year.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
The people like, what is happening? Did the early drooms
like dropping diseases in the air, Like what the fuck.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Is I don't know that things been going around. It's
like a good twenty four hours and then the next
day you kind of weak. But that shit, whoo that
thing whoop my ass bad. I'm supposed to go to
LA for the New Year. Maybe didn't go nowhere, right
at home, but I'm right where God want me to be.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
That's and I see that. That's how you gotta look
at things. You know what I'm saying. We be wanting
to do so much. If your body telling you to
lay down, bitch, laid.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
Down, lay the funk that I ain't had no choice.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
I'm making some T shirts that say I love to
lay down. That is my favorite thing to this that's
your happy space. Yes, and my bad fresh sheets kicking
my feet.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
So here are some visual I can't even fucking talk.
Here are some visualization techniques.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
Okay, I need you to say, I am a good talker.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
I am a good talker. Okay, I am a good
public speaker. Amen, okay, amen, And don't say online I am.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Hey I am a good reader.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
I am a good reader. I am all right. So
color breathing It says, visualize a color while breathing in
and out. Now this is I guess how you get
into that space?

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Right?

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Visualize a color while breathing in and out. Different colors
can represent different emotions or sensations. For example, blue can't
promote calm and relaxation. So before you close your eyes,
just think blue. Like think of blue dot or a
blue ball, blue face, a blue It could be a

(33:05):
blue face, a blue balloon, a blue sky, blue skies
only using all five senses. Use your site, smell, touch, taste,
and hearing to help you visualize your goals. So if
you're a chef, I don't know, can you smell what

(33:26):
the rock is, cooking, touching something, tasting it like you
have to in your mind, but still feel and smell
and taste the things I already mentioned. Doing a vision board,
so create a board to help you visualize your goals,
sketching the goals. Sketch out your goals. And then the

(33:50):
last one is mental rehearsal. Practice mental rehearsal to help
you visualize your goals. So again that's just you already
doing the thing. So whatever your goals are, Like, what's
one of your goals for this year?

Speaker 2 (34:05):
Well, my goal for today after we finish recording is
to go get me a new car. So while you
were doing that, I was like smelling the leather of
the new car smell, imagining myself driving it. So that's
what I'm doing right now. That's a today manifestation.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
Touching it, Touching the wheel, touching the leather on the wheel,
on the road, touching the hood of the car.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
Yeah, I've seen them both.

Speaker 1 (34:31):
Yeah, all right. So here's a brief overview of the
concept of manifestation, because we talk about these things, but
do we really know what it means to manifest So
manifestation is the process of turning your thoughts, desires, and
intentions into reality by aligning your mindset, emotions, and actions

(34:56):
with what you want to achieve. Rooted in the idea
that thoughts and erg you can influence outcomes. It often
involves techniques like visualization, affirmations, and goal setting. So all
these things have to go together. So writing the goals
down with no actions behind them is not gonna work.
You're gonna be right back here next January one manifestation

(35:16):
operates on the belief that focusing on positive outcomes and
taking inspired action attracts opportunities, resources, and circumstances that help
you bring those goals to life. It's about creating a
clear vision of what you want and working consciously and
subconsciously to make it happen. See I work on When
I say clarity, it's like meeting letting my subconscious mind

(35:39):
meet the conscious line. Can you remember that article that
came out that said people don't have that inner dialogue
like I talked. I have conference calls with myself all
the time. But some of them them not intrusive, but
some of them conversations could be like out of whack
sometimes like you be, you kind of talk yourself out
of things sometimes, So programming your subconscious mind.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
Well, sometimes you got to talk yourself out of things
because don't throw that baby.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
No bitch. I'm not talking about intrusive thoughts. I'm talking
about like positive things like you you want to do something,
but you let your subconscious mind psyche you out of it.
Oh yeah, right, So it's about reprogramming your subconscious mind.
It's the thing that is not at the front of
your mind.

Speaker 2 (36:24):
Right mm hm, and not allowing other people's thoughts about
your goals and ideas to deteriorate you know.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
So. Visualization is a power tool for manifestation because it
bridges the gap between your desires and reality by training
your mind to focus on what you want. It involves
mentally creating detailed, vivid images of your goals as if
you've already achieved them. This process engages a subconscious mind,
which influences your thoughts, beliefs, and actions. When you visualize consistently,

(36:58):
your brain interprets these mental images as real experiences, strengthening
neural pathways that enhance confidence and motivation. Visualization also helps
align your emotions with your goals, generating a sense of
excitement and belief that makes these goals feel attainable. By
reinforcing a clear vision of success, visualization can inspire you

(37:19):
to recognize and seize opportunities that bring you closer to
your desired outcomes.

Speaker 2 (37:26):
Okay, that's excellent. Let's do the guided messagitation. I'm ready
for that part.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
Are you ready? All right, y'all, let's get into the
guided meditation so we can manifest all the great things
for a twenty twenty five. Okay, all right. So first,
I want you to find a quiet place, a quite
comfortable space where you won't be disturbed. You can sit down,

(37:54):
or you can lie down in a relaxed position. Are
you there? Okay? Close your eyes and take a few
deep breaths inhaling through your nose and it exhaling through
your mouth. Allow your body to relax with each exhale.

(38:19):
I want you to now clarify your goals. Think of
one specific goal or feeling you want to manifest. It
could be a personal achievement, a relationship, financial success, or
a sense of peace and happiness. I want you to
clearly state your goal in your mind in a positive

(38:42):
and present tense form, as if it's already happened. For example,
I am thriving in my dream career, or I feel
joyful and at peace. I want you to create a
mental scene. Imagine a vivid scene where your goal has

(39:05):
already been achieved. Picture yourself living in this reality. Are
you there yet? I want you to engage all your senses.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
Come on, bitch, we gotta fit. Not good, not good?
All right here, I'm like, all right, slow down, no,
slow down, all right.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
All right, site, We're engaging sight first, Okay, what do
you see around you? What colors, objects, or people are present.
What sounds do you hear? Is there music, laughter, or

(39:56):
nature in the background. Are there any sense in this environment,
perhaps flowers, fresh air, or a favorite meal. What do

(40:17):
you feel physically? The warmth of the sun, the texture
of your clothing, or handshake, if applicable, imagine a taste
like celebrating with a special meal or drink. I want

(40:39):
you to embrace these emotions. Focus on how achieving this
goal makes you feel. Are you joyful, proud, grateful, or excited.
I want you to now amplify those emotions, allowing them
to full you your entire body, smile or even laugh

(41:05):
if it feels natural. Immerse yourself fully in the experience.
I want you to anchor this vision, repeat it affirmation

(41:25):
tied to your goal, such as I am deserving and
capable of achieving this. This is my reality. Now visualize
this scene again, briefly and mentally lock it in as
though you're storing it in your heart or mind for safekeeping.

(41:50):
Now I want you to release and trust it. Take
a final deep breath and slowly open your eyes. I
want you to trust that the energy you've created is

(42:11):
already working to attract your desired outcome. We go of
any attachment to how or when it will happen and
carry the positive feelings with you throughout your day.

Speaker 2 (42:29):
Y'all. Please, Yes, that was good. I don't want to
tell everybody what I saw, but I did it while
you were talking. I did everything that you were saying.
That was so good. What are you doing part of
the year, guys. I hope y'all participated. If y'all didn't

(42:52):
rewind it and give us another stream.

Speaker 1 (42:57):
Look, bitch, I can't be skipping words and messing up
trying to read why somebody meditating line.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
No, that was good.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
They bring on rewind and fast forward, and rewind and
press play.

Speaker 2 (43:08):
My advice, see y'all. If y'all need a little bit
more time, pause, pause it so you can give yourself
a second to visualize those things.

Speaker 1 (43:15):
You can stop the meditation to pause the recording though,
why not?

Speaker 2 (43:20):
So?

Speaker 1 (43:20):
Yeah, it would be a lot slower, right, But this
is just that was just like a guide on how
to get into that meditative state, right, so you can
start visualizing all those things that you wrote down and
you can see yourself there you gotta get yourself in

(43:40):
a quantum realm. Okay, I did it, wet jump in
all twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
Yes, period, Hey, what a way to start to kick
the ear.

Speaker 1 (43:50):
They say, They say that the the you you want
to be already exist in a different universe. You just
got to meet yourself there. So that's whe I'm jumping in.
I'm about to meet me that I want to be
where I want to.

Speaker 2 (44:05):
Be already reality what I want to be. I'm about
to meet that on amen period. Period.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
I am who I say I'm is.
