Starting point is 00:00:00 Wow, look at her go. That is a very intense cup. Size or crystals? All of it. Thank you. Some days, I've thought like, wow, this is really hard blending families. But even in the days where it's hard, there's so much more love.
Starting point is 00:00:27 It's such a deeper, richer existence, you know? I think living authentically is not conforming. I will like nurse the fever of my kids versus giving Tylenol or ibuprofen. Like I love to just go against the grain. So I don't do Botox. Courtney. Oh, well I was gonna say.
Starting point is 00:00:49 I get it, we're all gonna die. I feel like my third eye is open. Courtney, do you see the judging eyes now? Yeah. Okay, they're here. She just has to remember how much she loves me. Sometimes I think she forgets. She's gotta stop sending the love text message.
Starting point is 00:01:06 I'm gonna send her a novel after this. ["I'm Gonna Send Her A Novel After This"] ["I'm Gonna Send Her A Novel After This"] Take your chance. Discover chance au Splendid. The new fragrance. Chanel. Hello Courtney. Oh hello.
Starting point is 00:01:56 Hello darling. Welcome to Chloe and Wonderland. I've been waiting to come down to Wonderland. No, but honestly, North had the best idea. She was like, you need, she said this to Kim. So I don't know how she worded it, but she was saying you Kim and me need to do a pod together, a session,
Starting point is 00:02:15 because we are the OGs. Oh, like do this. Do one of these together and just chit chat. And I thought that would be a great idea. Has Kim been to wonderland? No, she hasn't been to Wonderland. We've called her on Wonderland, but she hasn't been here. You are the first sister.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Wow. Wow. I'm honored. What do you wanna talk about today? I have something that I think is interesting, but it's up to you if you wanna talk about it. Okay. Let's talk about your new family dynamic. It's crazy. You are a mom of seven.
Starting point is 00:02:46 How is the family dynamic? Like how is the household chaos? Has to be with seven kids. There's days. All different ages too. There's days when everyone's home and everyone has friends over. And then there's days when no one's home and it's Travis and I and the baby. And what's, do you prefer? Do you love a house of chaos and fingerprints everywhere and messes or do you love a house of like, or maybe you like both?
Starting point is 00:03:18 You need the exhale moment, which is. I mean, the balance is nice, but I think him and I love when everyone's home. We had family dinner last night. We have family dinner every Sunday, and there were four of them at dinner. I remember when we first would do family dinners, I would try to be like,
Starting point is 00:03:39 okay, who are you bringing? And so we can set the table and make sure we have the table set for the right amount of people. Oh, now it's more open to our policy. And then it's just like, that Travis would say, but we don't have to know, like just be, just let it flow. You, you would be like, I need their name,
Starting point is 00:03:59 I need, I'm making a name tag. Their address, their social security number. Yeah, and I'm like, so now we set the table for the whole amount, which I think is 12. Like the amount of the table. Or 10. Yeah, that sits at the table. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Yeah, it's 12.
Starting point is 00:04:16 We set the table for 12 and whoever comes, comes. There's been times when it's been me, Travis and Rocky. Just you three? Just us. Oh my gosh. And the table's set for everyone and no one else can make it. But it's usually everyone and some friends. But I remember just thinking,
Starting point is 00:04:37 can't we do things that are just the family, like family trips or any of those? And there's usually- But remember you as a teenager, you loved having a plus one. But I remember we would also do things like when we would go to Vail for Thanksgiving and go skiing, we weren't allowed to bring friends.
Starting point is 00:04:53 No. And when we would go to- But I don't think we could afford to bring friends. Probably. And also people would do things with their own families for Thanksgiving. Or when we went to Hawaii, we weren't allowed to bring friends.
Starting point is 00:05:08 It's a nice idea, but I've grown a lot in the way of just being able to be like, it doesn't matter, whoever comes to dinner, it's gonna be, it's like I let go of a lot of the need to almost plan or maybe it's even have control. I don't know what it is, but I've let go of that a lot to just be like the table set, whoever comes, you know, comes and for trips too, I'll be like, everyone's invited.
Starting point is 00:05:42 No, how you can handle a trip is insane to me. You handle it like me, no. You're gonna pick out who's in what room and what's gonna. And you are so carefree about it. And I love that. I wish I could be more like that. But I've grown to be that way through the experience
Starting point is 00:06:02 because if I held onto it or let things like that bother me, which I used to, I'd used to be like, when it was family dinner, well, why can't you tell me who's coming? I don't get it. Why can't, I would ask Travis, can you tell me who's coming of the kids and I'll see who's coming with the younger kids or whatever.
Starting point is 00:06:22 And then I just was able to let it go. When I was a stepmom, it was challenging for me. And I didn't have little babies, it was just me. I feel like, and maybe because you guys have had so much history, you and Travis, of being friends prior to your marriage, I feel like you've done a pretty good job of being now the stepmom.
Starting point is 00:06:46 Well, I love my role as stepmom because I don't feel like it's up to me to discipline. And so we've kind of allowed each other to, we'll talk about it and then, he can handle the harder things. I definitely give advice or try to be a good, I guess, role model or even just how they say modeling is the best way to kind of teach your kids more than just saying certain things. So I feel just hopefully being a positive influence or an example and we have lots of
Starting point is 00:07:27 good conversations and we laugh and you know, I feel like it's in the best way I can be there to be supportive or really in any way that they want me to be for as much or as little as they want, you know, and so I Do think also having the Relationship that we've had for so many years. I Was friends with Travis and the kids for longer than we've been together, you know, yeah, so I think Having that history Definitely helped and I used to think to going history definitely helped.
Starting point is 00:08:08 And I used to think too, going into it, oh, we have such a good foundation that it would just be seamless. But some days I've thought, wow, this is really hard blending families. I think regardless of how much history you have when you are friends with someone, and then as soon as you get in a relationship with someone, regardless of how great you are,
Starting point is 00:08:32 I think kids feel like they also have to still know, like, where's my role? Like, let me test boundaries. And I think that's very normal. But for you, you're probably like, wait, I thought we were good, and you are. But it's just them testing. Yeah, also, I think it was hard for you, you're probably like, wait, I thought we were good, and you are. But it's just them testing. Yeah, also, I think it was hard for all,
Starting point is 00:08:48 but we moved out of our house that we had lived in for the kids' whole lives and then moved in there and then sharing space, which we did slowly. We stayed, I think a year and a half separately, but married, but living a block away from each other. So I think that was and a half separately but married but living a block away from each other. So I think that was really a helpful transition. I think if you're married or if you're getting married and if you did it before your marriage or after
Starting point is 00:09:15 doing that slow transition of that I thought was really smart. You guys did it once you were married, but when you have kids, I think that's a really smart way to do it. But even once you're then living together, there's things you don't even think about, like moving things in the pantry or, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:09:32 just little things that you don't think about. And again, that's where I've had growth because I would think, okay, take a deep breath. It's okay if the fridge is a mess because there's some days 25 people going in there and looking for something or grabbing something. Now I've gotten it to such a good place, but I remember just.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Well, think about, you've always had younger kids. Mason is now 15, but you then took on a family with young adults. So you sort of missed you evolving into that. You know what I mean? You're just thrown into like, in the young adult stage is a hard stage. So now they're young adults who I'm sure wanna socialize,
Starting point is 00:10:18 have friends over and that's, you're probably like, wait, what? I'm used to rain is what, 10? You're used to young people and now you have Rocky who's one. Yeah. So everyone is in such different phases. But even in the days where it's hard, there's so much more love. There's so much, it's such a deeper, richer existence, you know? When we first got married, they said it takes four years to get on the same boat together.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Holy. As a family, as a blended family. And what year are you in? I got married in May. Oh my gosh, you did. So my anniversary is coming up and it'll be three years. That's crazy. So it said it really truly takes four years
Starting point is 00:11:04 to feel like you're all on the same boat and you're truly a family and like doing this together. Where like- You're almost there. Right, one year left. You're almost there. But I remember at the times when it didn't feel that way or it feels like it's like your squad versus my squad
Starting point is 00:11:24 or you know, we do things this way and you do things this way or whatever it could be. Well, think about how hard it is. I don't know if you remember before kids, just living with another person, just two adults integrating their lives together, blending, learning how to share a bed. Like it could be the share the TV.
Starting point is 00:11:44 Like I dread the newness of that. I'm like, I don't want you touching my fucking remote. This is my bedtime. Think about that. Now you're blending tiny people with big emotions. That's crazy. I think doing it each our own way for so long. And then coming together and being like,
Starting point is 00:12:03 okay, now what's our way? How do we do it? Because I'll be like, but this is how I do it. But also how do you do it as a couple? Right, what's our new way now? What's the way? So I think it's like finding your way and then- Do you have tips for people that are blending families?
Starting point is 00:12:19 I'll always think of it like this. What is my, what am I supposed to learn from this and grow from this? Say it's one specific thing. I'll be like, okay, how do I learn and grow from this moment? Or, you know, we're two people with two brains that have different opinions sometimes. So how do you each express your side and be heard? How is it good enough, you know, for everybody kind of thing? If I laugh about something and don't take it so seriously, it's kind of like a choice. But it really irks the fuck out of a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Well, like sometimes if you're like, because you will laugh in someone's face and just feel like, ha! Well, no, I don't mean like laugh at them. That is just uncomfortableness of just like laughing because I don't know what else to do. But this is like having a choice to be like, oh, it's not that big of a deal and just kind of like laugh, not like laugh it off if it means something
Starting point is 00:13:25 to you. Don't sweat the small stuff. Yeah, don't sweat the small stuff. But also, I mean, have a sense of humor. I don't want to give specific examples, but if a teenager did something that's like what teenagers do, and instead of being like, I'm not the role that has to make it a big deal. So I feel like I could just be like, oh my gosh, that was, thanks to myself,
Starting point is 00:13:48 that was actually kind of funny and smart and whatever. I do like that you said you know your role is not to be the disciplinary with the older kids and knowing that, I think something that Bruce did so well with us, or I could speak for myself, is Bruce never tried to be dad. And I always appreciated and respected that. Okay, so that wasn't my experience.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Okay. But maybe that's why it became your experience. Thank you. So grateful for that for you. But. Really? He tried to be dad for you? Well, not dad, but tried to be controlling and bossy
Starting point is 00:14:29 and would tell me certain friends can't come over and would like. But also maybe that experience molded you into being the step-parent that you are today. Whether it be things you don't, didn't like from Bruce or things you did like. Or I think about too with Denise. Denise was our dad's fiance for five years.
Starting point is 00:14:53 We love her, we still love her. And I love her. Shout out Denise. And I still have a relationship with her. And I think about what an amazing example she was to all of us. She taught us so much about being young ladies at the time. She put me in Cotillion.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Do you know what Cotillion is? Loved Cotillion. She didn't do that for me, but. Oh, you were just born a lady. With knowing table manners or whatever it is. It is. Oh my God, does that mean I was a beast? No, I wish that I did that, but maybe I was just older,
Starting point is 00:15:26 so maybe she was able to teach us. You're right. You know? That means I was a savage at the table. You could have been. I could have been. I could see myself. So yeah, I think having that really positive experience
Starting point is 00:15:40 with Denise really helped me too. And I think almost being- Was that why you didn't connect with Bruce? Well, yeah. I just thought you didn't like him because he was replacing dad. Not that he did. No one could replace dad,
Starting point is 00:15:56 but that's just why I thought you didn't like him. So weird that you had such a different experience. I think it's because you were younger. I had such a different experience, but think it's because you were younger. I had such a different experience, but maybe mom had a talk with him, maybe your retraction taught him something. So maybe it was a lesson for everyone. Oh yeah, I'd be like, I wanna call my dad.
Starting point is 00:16:17 And then he would like hang up the phone. We would have yelling wars. Yeah, that is not my experience at all. That's crazy. See, you can live in the same house, being raised by the same parents. Yeah, not even know. Not even know and have totally different experiences.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Well, I'm sorry you went through that. Thank you. It was fine. That's why I moved into dad's. I had no clue. So here's the deal. You guys know I love snacking and I love popcorn. But I'm also always looking for ways
Starting point is 00:16:46 to eat more protein during the day. That's why I created Cloud popcorn. It has three times the protein of your standard popcorn and it tastes delicious. I created Cloud because I wanted a popcorn that pulls its weight with no trade-offs. Cloud is crafted from whole grain popcorn sourced from Nebraska and is non-GMO, gluten-free,
Starting point is 00:17:07 kosher and free from both seed oils and added flavors. You can try Cloud now at cloudfoods.com. You are going to love it. I used to try to be the kind of person who goes to nurseries on the weekend, that person sipping iced coffee, casually pushing around a cart full of soil and dreams. But in reality, I'd forget or I'd get overwhelmed.
Starting point is 00:17:28 And I don't even have a car. Uber drivers are not okay with you putting ferns in the backseat. I learned that the hard way. By the end of it, I would just end up ordering a sad artificial fern out of desperation and frustration. That was before I found fast growing trees. And let me tell you,
Starting point is 00:17:44 I've been living my backyard fantasy ever since. I ordered a couple of privacy trees because my neighbor's hot tub is a little too close for comfort. Not only did they show up fast, but they looked better than half the stuff I had ever bought in store. And get this, I did not have to lift a finger beyond opening the box. No dragging a tree into the back of my hatchback, or lack thereof. Just beautifully packed, healthy plants delivered right to my door. and opening the box. No dragging a tree into the back of my hatchback, or lack thereof. Just beautifully packed, healthy plants delivered right to my door.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Plus, they've got actual plant experts on call. So when I panicked and thought I overwatered, I didn't have to Google, can you drown a tree? I just asked someone who knew what they were doing. And this is the kicker. It cost me a fraction of what a landscaper quoted me, like 90% less. This spring, they have the best deals for your yard, up to half-off in select plants

I was like being a mom.
Starting point is 00:20:29 No, I mean just starting over nine years later. That's crazy. So I felt like becoming a mom again really ignited, like intensely ignited my motherly role, my motherly instinct. And I feel like my feminine energy, remember I would always send you videos. Yes, I've gotten many videos about this. About feminine energy, and I feel like it intensely ignited
Starting point is 00:21:00 that feeling inside me of just, I am a mom. I had a strong desire to not work and stay home and be with the kids, which is, I would say, probably like once a week, I'll work. This is today. This is today. Okay, yes, thank you. And it's not like the whole day, it's, you know.
Starting point is 00:21:25 Two hours. Yeah, it's like a couple hours of my day. And then the rest of the time, I'm truly at home and I'm, you know, being a mom. Is there anything that you either forgot about, like, oh wow, I forgot about this stage, or is there just, because Rocky came nine years after Rain, or is there something you're like,
Starting point is 00:21:50 wow, I'm gonna do this so differently, because I either learned I don't need that, or just you're in a different phase in your life. Maybe the stuff. I would wanna have the best lotion, or the best oil, or whatever, and now I just use organic coconut oil, you know? I keep it pretty simple.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Even I think for me, your first kid, you overdo everything. And then your second, you're like, we don't need half this crap. I mean, obviously there's marketing tactics and I get why we are conditioned that we need to buy all this stuff. And a new mom, you're nervous and scared.
Starting point is 00:22:25 And so you're like, I need everything. I had things before, but I remember like when mom would try to stress me out about the room or be like, it's not even painted. And that's when I said people had babies in caves. It just like gave me peace to know it's okay. Whatever it is, as long as I have a boob and, you know. You have two of those. Whatever, and one thing I guess we did differently,
Starting point is 00:22:51 I did differently this time is, I've always shared a bed with the other kids, but I share a room, we share a room with Rocky. But eventually, do you think he'll have his own room? Yes, of course. And I think it started more from just space in the house, you know. But this style of parenting is called attachment style parenting, right? And what is that exactly?
Starting point is 00:23:17 I think it's really not separating for as much as possible in the first definitely three years. It really helps, I think, nurture their attachment, secure attachment. And it's actually, it's just even without knowing that, I remember I read this, the attachment parenting book before Penelope, but it's kind of just what my instincts tell, like I lean towards and it's like what they tell me to do.
Starting point is 00:23:49 I feel like just my motherly instincts. I love that. Mother knows best. No, oh my gosh, and Teresa sings me that song all the time. Okay, I wanna look at questions now. I thought one of them that was interesting was like, how do we do things differently? Yes, as a family.
Starting point is 00:24:06 As like mother. Ken. Like as the mother role. And I feel like I was thinking about it because first I'm like, I don't know what Chloe does. I have no idea. And then I started thinking. Wait, let me ask you. Oh, I was just gonna say that you are very scheduled.
Starting point is 00:24:23 Uh-huh, I am. And very scheduled. Uh-huh, I am. And very scheduled and planned out throughout the whole day, like activities, you know, outfits, all the things, bedtimes, food. You don't have a bedtime for your kids? Well, we have a general time, but we're not definitely as babies. We had no schedule. Rocky doesn't really have a schedule,
Starting point is 00:24:49 but he has a general thing. But if it's like some days, like today we got up at seven, made breakfast for the kids and they got out the door. And then I noticed he was so tired at around 8.30. And so we nursed in bed and he went to sleep. Let me also say, if my kids are tired, I'm like, they could go to sleep. Yeah, no, I'm not saying.
Starting point is 00:25:10 I'm not like, you better stay awake and tell. No, I could just tell, but so then today I have no idea what nap time would be. And like, it's okay, we're just kind of go with the flow. And also with the attachment style parenting, I hold him for his naps. The whole time? The whole time. Wow.
Starting point is 00:25:32 On... That's crazy to me. I think Saturday. Because he's also not a light baby. Yeah, he's like 23 pounds. You're holding a 23 pound baby for two hours? Three hours sometimes. Three hours? Three hours sometimes. Three hours?
Starting point is 00:25:45 Yeah, once he took a nap for like five hours and. Holy shit. In a sling or just free balling this? No, like I'll sit in our little chair, usually in the room and then. That's great. I still have my little breastfeeding pillow and then he'll kind of lay on there, but my arm's under.
Starting point is 00:26:05 And then I have a little radiation blanket that I put over to like protect from EMFs for phone use. Don't you have that thing that you made me buy? And I have that little sticker on my phone too. I wonder if we have to replace that sticker. I was curious, I don't think so. How do you think we differ as moms? Well, I think even just how I'll do
Starting point is 00:26:30 like extended breastfeeding, co-sleeping. But not everyone can breastfeed. So some of it's a choice. Some of it isn't possible. No, but it's also what it wasn't possible. I couldn't breastfeed. I've tried, I did. I had a person come to Cleveland
Starting point is 00:26:49 and I don't know what they're called. Like a lactation consultant. And they came for over a week, tried. I did the tea and the cookies and these sweet potato things. I think you were stressed out too. I was, just a tad. I read something recently that said,
Starting point is 00:27:03 if you do things the opposite of how you were raised in certain things, like in certain areas, that you're healing yourself. You're healing that wound of things that you didn't get that you needed. Do you think you remember breastfeeding? Oh, I was in breastfed. I'm saying, oh, as a child?
Starting point is 00:27:23 Yes, like, well, yeah, are you like- Like, are my kids gonna remember that? I'm assuming you're saying, now you breastfeed because you weren't breastfed or something. Right. So, but do you, you wouldn't know, known you weren't breastfed if mom didn't tell you. If I didn't ask. But I think it's-
Starting point is 00:27:37 Subconsciously? Subconscious, it's like an instinct inside of me that's like, I didn't, with Mason, I breastfed for like 14 months. I wasn't thinking like, whoa, I wasn't breastfed. So I'm gonna breastfeed this long. It's just, I think like- Yeah, I think do what makes you happy.
Starting point is 00:27:54 I think it's a feeling inside of just like, or just an instinct or intuition. That was the first time I read that, was recently of that sentiment. And I just thought it was interesting. So it's healing your lack of breastfeeding. I think it's that connection or like co-sleeping or like that I don't leave for extended periods of time.
Starting point is 00:28:17 What are your issues with mom? Let's talk about that. No, I don't have issues. I feel like subliminally. Well, no, I don't have issues now. Now I feel like I can ask her questions. I even went to visit MJ recently and just out of curiosity, because I feel like it's good for us to know our just even family, how our family did things before us,
Starting point is 00:28:37 just more from a curiosity standpoint. I was asking MJ, like, how did you do things? Did you breastfeed? Did you have help? Did you breastfeed? Did you have help? Did you- What did she say? She said she breastfed, forgot how long she told me. And then I asked, but I need, I recorded it actually.
Starting point is 00:28:55 Nice. But then I asked her like, did you co-sleep? Where did the kids sleep? Did they sleep in their own- It was a very different time. Room by themselves. No, it was. Like kids back in those days were not seen, not heard. That was like the expression. No playrooms, no toys were in the main part of the house.
Starting point is 00:29:14 Like kids weren't hiding. I'm not asking to judge, I'm just asking to know. Yeah, no, but I'm just telling you, it was also, you have to have like the context of the era. So if she says no. And then I was asking mom too, when we went to lunch the other day and I was asking her like, what did they do? Did you have a monitor?
Starting point is 00:29:35 Did, was cry it out like a thing? She said she did. They had sound only. Sound only. Yeah. Yeah, she said she had a sound only monitor and I said, was cry it out a thing at that time. And she said she would try, but she would always cave. And I was thinking after how long was I sitting there crying alone in a dark room?
Starting point is 00:29:57 Oh my gosh. Um, but I think I had resentment about certain things even before I ever started therapy. And then I think as maybe the first year or so on my start of my therapy journey, I would have certain resentful feelings, which already existed. It was just kind of like working through them. And then I think finally getting to the place of either if there's actions that happen that I don't love or agree with
Starting point is 00:30:32 just to not take them personally, or even feel the need to like correct them or have a conversation about every little thing with balance because I also just don't wanna keep it in, and it keeps happening and then I like explode or something. I think it's good to thoughtfully say something if it makes you feel a certain way. But yeah, to now just being able to be like curious about how things were done, but not really judgmental because we're all just on a different journey path. I love that.
Starting point is 00:31:08 It's interesting though, I always hear the thing too, how kids could grow up with the same parents and the same household, but they're so different, but it's because they get a different version of you because you're at a different place in your life. You know more, you're just a different person. But I think I love our traditions that we've always been. Love our traditions. And I love how over the top I do because I love like any holiday. I'm like, I lean in with the napkins or the cookies or whatever. But I learned that from mom.

And I'm like, but she didn't do one. Oh, like people think that-
Starting point is 00:36:33 People think- That that's how I got pregnant. Yes, and I know, and so I know you talked about, yes, you tried IVF and it didn't work for you, but how Rocky was conceived was that he wasn't through IVF and no shame to IVF. I have an IVF baby, love IVF, it's a great thing. But I do think that, and I don't know if you care to talk about it, but people always,
Starting point is 00:36:55 to me, when they say it to me, like, well, what doctor did she use and how long was she doing IVF before that? I'm like, I think to my knowledge, Rocky was just naturally conceived. A year after stopping IVF. Oh, a year after. He conceived naturally on Valentine's Day.
Starting point is 00:37:13 We conceived naturally on Valentine's Day. But I still can't believe you went into labor Halloween, but he was born. November 1st. Dream and True were telling me the story. Dream knows like every specific. Oh my gosh. She knew the time of when he was born.
Starting point is 00:37:31 Yeah, she was like, it was 1201. She almost had a Halloween baby. Yeah, 1200. 12 midnight on the dot. Oh, well that's not nice. Well. That's crazy. Cause Courtney is the biggest Halloween fan. That's why. Well no, what- That's crazy. Cause Courtney is the biggest Halloween fan. That's why. Well, no, I love that he-
Starting point is 00:37:47 Obviously. Wanted his birthday. Okay. To be November 1st. But my lesson from IVF was that it really was, felt like it was going against me, against physically, spiritually, mentally, everything that I believed and felt.
Starting point is 00:38:10 It just felt like it was going against what my body wanted. And so it didn't work for me at all. We never made an embryo through IVF. It also felt like a monthly negative, almost like rejection every time it would be like, it didn't work or, you know, this isn't happening and your body's doing this.
Starting point is 00:38:32 It was like someone negatively talking about my body to me every month after month. And then you almost start to feel that way about your body, like I can't do this or whatever. So once I let go of all of that, it's almost like certain fear-based doctors that kind of are like, ha ha, you need to do this,
Starting point is 00:38:56 because I don't know, that's kind of what was happening. So once I was able to let go of all that and just trust in God, it happened. Why don't you talk about your faith and how much faith plays a part in your life. I feel like people are always surprised. They'll be like, what? You witches, like, you know, believe in God.
Starting point is 00:39:17 When I talk about that I read the Bible every day, people are like, you do? I read, like I have like a daily devotional that I read. I've been trying to ask some of our friends out that live near us to do a Bible study, which I think would be amazing for the adults. I would love it. I told you that I wanna do it with you.
Starting point is 00:39:41 I'm gonna try that new church, not this weekend, cause it's Mother's Day, but the next weekend. Do you and Travis have the same, like do you guys pray together? Is he faith-based? Is he on his own journey? I feel like we both are,
Starting point is 00:39:57 and I feel like we say prayers together when we're like, you know, when there's something coming up. I mean, I say the kids' prayers every night. If there's something that they might be anxious about at school or something, you know, we'll pray in those moments, pray before flights or travel together as a family.
Starting point is 00:40:19 I think the more you talk to God, the louder you'll start hearing him. Cause at first you're like, well, okay, like it's so awkward or weird, it's just foreign to you. But then the more that you talk to him, those answers do show up or innately, you find the answer you figured out and that's how he speaks to you.
Starting point is 00:40:37 So keep talking to him. What do you think people misunderstand about our relationship as sisters the most? I don't know. What do people think about our relationship as sisters the most? I don't know. What do people think about our relationship? From what I hear, people have more of a misconception about you and Kim. I think they think you and Kim like hate each other. And I think you almost talk to Kim more than you talk to me.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Because whenever I'm with Kim, you're always texting or calling and I'm like, that bitch doesn't call me this much. Really? It's probably either about kids stuff. I know P and North, you know, so you guys have the same stuff going on. Yeah. How do you decide what's actually worth your energy these days? So one thing that was surprising also is being a mom of four or seven. But yeah, mom of seven. Obviously, but yeah, mom of seven. Obviously all my kids deserve my energy, but just of being like,
Starting point is 00:41:30 how do I prioritize here? Because like I said, I want to be with the baby as much as I can, but then if one of the other kids need me and if it doesn't make sense to, you know, sometimes they need one-on-one attention. And so I found sequencing, like putting things in order of importance has really helped me. Yeah, sometimes we say yes so much,
Starting point is 00:41:55 but does it actually add value to our family or is it more dividing and separating it? I don't know. That's a good way to think of it. Cause even with activities, like mom said to me the other day, and I love challenging the things that she will come to me with,
Starting point is 00:42:10 but she was like, Oh, do I know? She was like, you know, Chloe's son does all these activities every single day, blah, blah, blah, like naming the whole thing. I go- I also don't like the comparing cause that always just makes you.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Well, also I said to her, I said, you know, it's also, and this is not for your son because he's three, but when the kids get older, I said it's not great to like fill. Overschedule, I agree. Overschedule or fill too much of their time with scheduling because they also need time to just relax.
Starting point is 00:42:46 I agree with true, I pulled back some for activities. I don't like over scheduling. Yeah, I was trying to figure out how to balance with all the kids and I felt this need to drive them to school in the mornings. And then I started talking about it and thinking about it. And then I was like, is it important to you guys? Like I said today, for example,
Starting point is 00:43:07 would you rather me drive you to school in the morning or go to your game? And it was go to the game. So then I was like, it's okay. Then I can spend the morning with Travis and Rocky, and then I can go to the game this afternoon. And then I can figure out, it's like each person getting their own time.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Yeah. What is your favorite memory of you and I as a duo? There's a lot. I know, we have a lot. Or what's something that stands out, doesn't have to be your favorite? I mean, the days in Miami were fun. So fun.
Starting point is 00:43:43 More fun than the days in the Hamptons, I would say. Obviously. Did you see Kylie was just in Miami? I saw. And I was like, girl, she was like FaceTiming me from Miami and she was having the best time. Oh, you're gonna die when I show you this video that she sent me, but.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Miami is just such a good time. And I was like, you have no idea. Court and I, we ran that city. It was amazing. Yeah, in a hot summer when no one was in town. That's probably why we ran it. What's your least favorite memory? Just like the era where it felt like you and Kim
Starting point is 00:44:17 were like the tables turned. You and I would gang up on, you and I would gang up on Kim for so long. And then it felt like the tables turned. So you didn't like both eras? You didn't like when Kim and I would gang up on you? No, I liked when we ganged up on Kim. That was fun.
Starting point is 00:44:35 But then later, once you and Kim would gang up on me, and I was the sensitive one, I think it was once I started therapy and then once I would kind of started challenging the ways that we did things sometimes, like the way that we just all functioned. No, I know that era and I hated it too. And so I think that now it's just-
Starting point is 00:45:03 I still sometimes feel like we're in that era. Sometimes. Well, I feel like I love to just go against the grain. Mm-hmm. I think living- But do you do that because you really care or you just are determined to go against the grain? No, I think living authentically is not conforming
Starting point is 00:45:23 to whatever it is and whether for me, it's like there's so many ways, there's ways like we function as a family that, it's like if someone does the same thing every day, like I do it with everything, it's not about our family. Like let's say the school system, I'll think why do kids fucking go to school? Truly, it's so dated.
Starting point is 00:45:47 Oh, I'm such a homeschool person. So don't even get me going. So then I'll start thinking and then like, you know, my kids will send me videos about like, why do kids go to school? It'll be like really successful people. And they'll be like, my kids never go to school and they're never going to and whatever.
Starting point is 00:46:04 And then I'm like, okay, what's the goal here? You wanna do homeschool? Let's do it, you know? Or whatever it is, I'll just, I think it's anything. I will like nurse the fever of my kids versus giving Tylenol or ibuprofen. Like I just like want to do that and whatever it is, there's so many things like that where I feel like I kind of do, maybe in the world, the generally maybe does more what I do, but in the United States.
Starting point is 00:46:35 It's Kimberly. Hi, I'm doing my podcast with... Oh, you are? How's it going? I'm the first sister guest. She showed up. Wow your makeup looks so pretty. Kim's getting ready for the Met. Oh I forgot. You look so pretty. Thank you. Oh I see who's in the back. I just want to just say good luck today guys on doing your podcast. No she didn't. No you didn't. You didn't know she was doing it. Yes I did. I have a camera crew.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Oh productions. Oh. You're so nice of them. Well good luck at the Met Ball. Good luck at the Met. Thank you. We can't wait to see how everyone looks. Wait what time are you going out?
Starting point is 00:47:21 Imagine being us and just being able to sit home and think, watch everyone on the red carpet. I can't wait. Yeah. Imagine being us being able to walk down the red carpet. How fun and exciting and all glammed up. I'm going to be home eating cloud popcorn in some pajamas and some. I'll be drinking 818. Oh, hell yeah. So you can have a wave of product for every situation. We do. And I'll be wearing my skims with my Kylie makeup. And just take your Lemme Purr for fun. Yeah. Don't forget that Lemme Purr. Um, okay. I love you guys.
Starting point is 00:48:03 Thank you. I love you. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye, guys. Did you know Lemmy Purse, our number one Lemmy? Stop. Did you ever think like you were gonna dominate with Lemmy like this? I kinda did.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Of course you did. No, that's so you. Of course you did. But no, it's obviously such a blessing. And I love that people resonate with it and that it's fun and that it's- The cutest branding. It's so fun. Like all your commercials.
Starting point is 00:48:34 I will say your best one was Let Me Sleep with that gorgeous sleeping beauty that you had. Yeah. Me. Sleeping beauty. That was me. Let's do a lightning round. Is there anything that really bothers you about me? I'm here to listen. I mean, sometimes.
Starting point is 00:48:51 Yes, let's go through the list. Go through the list. What bothers you about? Oh, you're gonna be talking about sending things? No, sometimes you send a really long text message answers and I'm like, who has the time? First of all. If anyone here has you on text,
Starting point is 00:49:12 I'm sure they know what I'm talking about. They all do. You're very thorough in your response and it's not- So God forbid I'm thorough. No, it's not a bad quality, but sometimes I'm like, dude, we get it, if Kim will send something to the chat, you'll be like, Kim, this is absolutely the most fantastic thing I've ever seen and you know,
Starting point is 00:49:36 whatever and I'm just like. Wow, okay, so keep it for the private chat. No, I'm just like. I want people to feel seen by me and for them to know that I'm actually paying attention unlike you who won't respond for three weeks. Yeah. Yeah. I get it.
Starting point is 00:49:52 No, but go on, what else? I feel like this is good for you. It's healthy. Tell me what else. I think that's honestly it. Courtney, don't lie. Tell me what else. I think sometimes you'll just like look at me
Starting point is 00:50:04 with like just judging eyes. Like you'll just be there like kind of judging. Oh no. Judging away. Okay. It's not today's mood. It's a certain mood. Okay, I don't feel like, maybe I do, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:50:20 No, it's just kind of like, oh yeah, I don't know. It's just a little. When I do it next, will you call it out? I will. So I can be aware. I will. Because I have a very expressive face, but I don't mean to do that.
Starting point is 00:50:34 And you would think I've had a lot of Botox and it still just shines on through. So I don't do Botox and I think- It's sort of a joke, Courtney. Oh, well, I was gonna say- I get it, we're all gonna die. Oh, well, I was gonna say. We're all gonna die. I feel like my third eye is open.
Starting point is 00:50:50 And so I feel like my intuitions are very awake. Courtney, do you see the judging eyes now? Yeah. Okay, they're here. With no other facial expression. Just the judging eyes, okay. Maybe that's why they stand out so much. Because of the facial photo.
Starting point is 00:51:09 There's nothing else moving, just the eyes. Oh my gosh, do I have big eyes? No. Like deer in headlights? No, you don't. That's all about you. Long text messages, judging eyes. I'm sure there's more.
Starting point is 00:51:26 It's kind of what I said on the chat the other day. I said, I will always push the envelope or push a little against what you guys are, not always, if I feel it. And then I'm just gonna give a little thing to maybe sprinkle a little thinking dust. Aren't you happy that I added you back to that chat because if it weren't for me. Well, then I said, to maybe sprinkle a little thinking dust. And then move on. Aren't you happy that I added you back to that chat
Starting point is 00:51:47 because if it weren't for me. Well then I said take me off if you have a problem. Right, but nobody wanted you off. Yeah. I added you back. So glad. Because Courtney loves to leave a chat. So glad.
Starting point is 00:51:57 And I said, oh, not that fast. You're staying here. The chats are, especially when Rocky was even smaller, the chats are overwhelming when I'm like trying to. Kendall hasn't responded in two years. I don't know if she's on it anymore. Probably as restricted. She probably changed her number.
Starting point is 00:52:14 Well, Kylie hasn't responded in longer than that. Courtney used to hold up picket signs. She used to make picket signs around the house and protest. Cause we, mom made the same dinner every night for like years. And I was like, no more spaghetti. I need something else. Yes. Do you understand why she probably
Starting point is 00:52:34 needs spaghetti every night now? I guess, but I mean, it's, I don't know. And then I would say, I wonder if it was that same pasta, you know the pasta that she makes? The pasta and peppers. Or the pasta primavera. Yeah, that's what it is, pasta with peppers, pasta primavera.
Starting point is 00:52:55 Yeah. I was like, no more pasta primavera. Rob and I love that. Okay, Courtney, I could talk to you all day. This was great. Good, it was great for me too.
