    I'm so proud of you guys. Yvette especially, because you have grown luv. You had an insightful, Ahah!!!! moment and you were able to clearly articulate what you meant, which you have not been able to do well in the past. You're more confident in expressing yourself. Also you don't say 'I don't know' that much anymore😄. You guys are more of a team now👏👏👏👏👏 Growth!!! Love you guys💙💙💙

    I have struggled with feeling inadequate too as I’m comparing myself to another person when we’re working together 😔 so I’m going to start combating that will gratitude, like mentioned, and also praise and saying something like “you’re such a great speaker, it’s a skill that growing in so I’m thankful to have you to partner with” 😅

    One year later and this was relevant for me. Thank you so much for sharing the parts of you that are so close to you. Yvette thank you for putting into words what I now realise I also needed to know, and see better. I related so much to what you were feeling.
    Glen, thank you for how you make room for Yvette to share, and having such a heart that "visibly to me" show how you accepted her apology and was grateful she now understood some part of you and your walk too now. Oh and thank you for your patience for her to have God change her perspective not just for you, but for her too.
    This hit home for me for sure 😂😊

    I understand completely, my husband owns a care giving agency and employs a lot of care givers, pays wages towards their mortgage, pension, gives training, provides interns, ensure healthcare service is up to policies, it’s A LOT!
    However, I work part time on my own business and employment while also being at home with the kids. I often think to myself “he has it so easy, he can go to work and sort out the business only worrying about work. He doesn’t have to worry about anything at home”
    BUT I really need to shift my perspective, he has a lot of peoples livelihood on his shoulders including his own family. So I really need to try harder to be more understanding and attentive.

    I love that Baby Girl wants to go to hair school especially at such a young age!🤗 Let her go to CZcams university and learn things she wants to try. Order her a mani Quinn head off Amazon. She’ll have clients by Jr High or High School and can attend beauty school as soon as the area you all are in allows. Also…. As long as the front is on point the back can do what it’s doing, it’s supposed to look like that, leave that Baby alone! 🤣🤣 (jk) Sincerely, a Managing Cosmetologist 😉

      @@HowMarriedAreYouPodcast nice! If it’s in her it’s not going anywhere. I started back in high school doing friends hair at home, got mad and retired in high school 🤣 went away to college for physical therapy but didn’t finish and I ended up in Cosmetology school when I was 25 and I’ve been licensed since 2009. There are SO MANY opportunities and niches she can go into with her license (and it’s recession-proof) and if she gets tired of it she can always throw it in her back pocket for rainy days. As of the last couple years I’ve gotten burnt out so I’m pivoting to permanent make-up so that I’m not behind the chair as much. That’s one of the down sides of the industry is work/life balance and how hard it is on your body so make sure to express to her how important it is to take care of her mind and body and keep her core strong! 💜

    37:12 It's really good, but they don't like to refer to as "Medicine Ball"
    all of the locations that I've visited in the state where I live they're always sure to correct me and call it herbal tea.
    Not exactly sure why that is.
