Listen, everybody needs a fairy godmother, you know, just somebody to look out for them. Some people call me their fairy smoke mother, others their internet big sister, but you can call me Hannah, the host of Smoke Sash, so come hang out, let's light up and talk everything there is to life, the good, the bad, the ugly, the embarrassing, I've got a story for it all. hello hotties of the world and welcome back to another beautiful wonderful episode of smoke sesh my name is hannah your sesh host and i am honestly so excited to be back with you guys today i have had a whirlwind of a week i can't believe it's only been well obviously seven days

since i've sat down with you but i've been so busy that it feels like it's been months honestly i feel like i've been gone for months it was a pretty chaotic hectic so fun week um but this time last week i was sitting down to pre-record with you guys because i was getting on a plane on tuesday to fly to austin texas so i was panic packing laundering it up i got my nails done oh look at these nails you guys honestly this is the shortest I've ever gone and I'm loving this length I'm loving all of these sparkles and the gemstones I have gotten so many compliments this week thank you girlies for all the compliments you're so sweet um but I literally recorded this panic packed laundry went and got my nails done at 5 p.m got home at like

ate had dinner immediately passed out was on the plane at 6 30 like hello girls we are on the move we are grooving and when life kind of sweeps me up like that it's like it's really nice because you kind of get to forget about all the shit you have going on at home which really honestly for me is nothing it's not like i'm running away from anything thank god thank you universe for putting me in a good position um but it was such a great escape as you guys know i was leaving to head to Austin Texas to visit one of my amazing amazing good college friends who actually lived here for a little bit a couple months travel nursing and found her way down to Austin Texas and loved it so much that she stayed so you know I had to go check out the city and see what was up let's be

real Texas was not a place that I thought I would ever ever find myself in it's not necessarily a place that i was like yeah i'll go there for vacation that's number one on my list like texas and florida are kind of up there where it's just like i'm good you know what i mean like there's other places which is now that i say it's kind of mean i guess but there's just other places i would rather go i do think the republican influence definitely makes it a little scarier to travel there where I'm like oh are people gonna be as friendly as I as they should be when you travel somewhere just because of the laws and the politics going on down there but listen hey I wasn't gonna let that hold me back I had to go see my friend and I was pleasantly surprised by

Austin Texas to be fair it was giving Denver do you know what I mean and I think everybody who was living there kind of knew that about Austin Texas is it was like definitely I feel like well honestly I don't live in Texas so don't quote me on this but it felt like the most progressive area in the probably entire state of Texas like it wasn't a Houston it wasn't a Nashville it was like a little bit more weird which I appreciated a little less Trump signs and I'm from Missouri so I understand you know the politics of it all like I get it but Austin was pleasantly surprising oh my god I had genuinely so much fun we were booked and busy since I landed I got on that plane at 6 30 I landed at like what 10 immediately she swooped me in the car blunt rolled don't even

worry babe blunt rolled smoked on the way to go get brunch we ended up at this place called sour dough which was or no no not sour dough sour duck which was fantastic it was an outdoor gardening area that you know you go get a little mimosa get a little drink get a little breakfast burrito actually massive breakfast burrito the size of my head that was fantastic um and we ordered a little cocktail and the guy bringing it out to us was like wow this is the first cocktail i've made all morning like okay sorry about that sir it's vacation time it is a tuesday i was there tuesday to friday so i didn't really get to see the city in full swing but it was a pretty incredibly busy city so thank god i wasn't there on a weekend because i could see how that would be overwhelming

the traffic lines were already long enough like i did not need to sit in that for hours and hours and hours but we went to sour duck we got a fat breakfast burrito i'm like oh my gosh let me check my photos because we did so much i'm like wait then what did we do the first day was kind of a blur i was a little sleep deprived uh morning flights are really not my vibe if anything i would rather fly out on a night immediately go get some dinner head to a hotel and sleep off the flight but the flight was cheaper let's be real the flight was a little cheaper had to go there early wanted to get more time in with my bestie but we got some fantastic food in and then we headed to go shopping i wanted to get some shopping done i wanted to visit some vintage

stores things like that um so i went out credit card in hand swiping left and right um in kansas city there's not a lot of storefronts there's not a lot of storefronts um there's like the big name brands like gucci i don't know bullshit like that i'm not going in there but there were a bunch of stores that like i shop online and there's also a bunch of very fantastic vintage stores so we spent the morning post blunt post morning cocktail breakfast burrito shopping our little hearts out which was so nice i needed some girls time just going out and looking at things and spending money we ended up at david yearman and she almost bought this four thousand dollar bracelet i was like girl let's think about it a little bit let's go have another glass of wine let's think about it

um and then we ended up at this really cute little old house that was also like a coffee shop slash bar i'm forgetting the name apologies and we ended up playing chess and drinking these amazing i think they were greek coffees they were called freddos i don't know i don't know don't quote don't quote me on that fantastic they also had happy hour all day two dollar fifty glasses of wine hello get me three thank you thank you so i learned how to play chess she taught me how to play chess and when i was there i was expecting it to be like 100 degrees outside texas hello i thought it was gonna be dry and hot but it was beautiful beautiful i think i came at the perfect week because there were some storms passing through um so it was a little cloudy a little

less humid as well and everything was cooling off a bit which was just gorgeous and made it just a beautiful time the entire time so we sat on the patio we had some drinks mid-afternoon did our little thing headed home changed showered kind of relaxed for a second and then we went out to dinner she had never had dumplings before hello crazy I gotta feed you some dumplings we ended up at dumpling house honestly for a chain dumpling place fantastic great amazing we filled up had our little dumpling moment she loved them got some zai long bao which are honestly probably my favorite food on this planet the soup dumplings oh i can eat those at any point in time they are so heartwarming i love a zai long bao got some dumplings filled up and then she was like the

whole day she's like I think I need a new bong I think I need a new bong because she had this tiny little one that was about this big and every time I hang out with her she always has like some sort of massive piece like two foot long piece this is the first time in my life that I've like hung out with her and she's like yeah here's my tiny little bong so the entire day she's like well I'm with you we should buy a piece somewhere so after dinner we're just driving down I don't know what street driving down the city doing whatever and i look across my shoulder and there's a smoke shop called mr smoke so i was like oh that's funny mr smoke she goes oh you know mr smoke whips through four lanes of traffic pulls the fuck over pulls into this parking lot of mr smoke i'm like have

you been here before do you like love this place or something she's like no i've never been babe she brought up mr smoke like she knew him personally i'm like what is going on we hop out of the car we're the only people in this parking lot it's like what 10 p.m like let's head into the strange smoke shop on the side of the road whatever we walk in it's like the holy lights started shining on us there was like these beautiful string lights there was incense burning there was amy winehouse playing we look at the glass pieces 20 off all glass oh thank you god thank you somebody was looking out for us we walk in there there's this cutie little girl working the the stand or whatever we're looking at pieces we end up finding this massive i'm talking like

my chair to here like two foot long bong for like 60 bucks i showed my boyfriend a picture he goes oh like what was that 180 no no no if there's one thing the girls are gonna find it's a deal okay uh so we immediately purchased this bong the sweet girly bubble wrapped the shit out of this we put it in our purse we said let's go of course made a late night ice cream stop at the baked bear which was fantastic it's like a build your own ice cream sandwich place listen the munchies were off the charts i was expecting this to be a very expensive trip i was like austin texas pretty popular pretty busy lots of people expensive expensive you go to any major city with a lot of people you expect people to kind of be raising prices also i live in kansas city

and since there has been a pretty large influx of people i have found that restaurants have really been raising their their prices like inflation is occurring everywhere let's be real but i was expecting you know okay I'm gonna drop like a grand or so on this trip everything was so much cheaper in Austin than I ever could have imagined maybe it's because there's so many people there so all the places had to get a little bit more competitive about the prices everything was so cheap I don't know what was going on maybe it was just our lucky day maybe it was weekday prices but I was so pleasantly surprised by that then we made it home I laid down on the couch she fed me like three Tylenol PM and put a weighted blanket on me knocked out

knocked out fantastic first day dumplings cocktails breakfast burrito new bong shopping chess playing chess is surprisingly fun I think I'm gonna get a piece for like a chess board for my living room because it's fun to teach people and it's kind of fun to play I've really been into things like stimulating my brain recently okay growing up okay adult activities the next morning we woke up early we wanted to go on a hike and Austin Texas has this pretty large river flowing through it another thing I was surprised by was the nature I was thinking like desert not gonna lie not like desert like red sand desert but at least like dry as fuck like a couple of trees maybe a river here and there this place had more trees and more nature than the middle

of where I am the middle of the map Missouri like I'm in the middle of nowhere honestly if you really think about it and this place even though it was like a metropolis a big city they really honestly built around the nature aspect of it all and I think are trying relatively to preserve it which is really nice we went on this beautiful like probably three four mile long hike along the river overlooking like the city line and the amount of people out on a Tuesday like walking running with their dogs there was a dog that their owner and matching cowboy hats going on a run I was like this place is so silly this is killing me um but it was just so incredibly gorgeous I was like I could see myself walking down this river walk every single day she's also like oh this is

where all the bodies are i was like oh girl okay i'll keep my eyes at my feet so we did this big gorgeous hike and then we ended up at the holy grail of all holy grails juice land juice land changed my life listen i love a fresh pressed juice you go get a fresh pressed juice in kansas city fifteen dollars for a small you go to juice land that has eight different kinds of juices and yerba mate and cbd and ashwagandha and anything you could possibly imagine in this juice and it's a large it's like six dollars hello hello get me five of them okay we ended up at juice land um the original one i don't know what street it was on but it was quite gorgeous in this old like stone house they're playing like edm and they have like a disco ball going it's like 10 a.m like okay

love it i ended up doing a little bit more vintage shopping and then she gets a call from her friend she is so silly she kills me she will make a friend wherever she goes she will bring up a conversation a conversation and chit chat with anybody okay anybody anybody she finds on the street she'll be like oh love you girl like you're so sweet hey like what are you doing you know and i love that about her because i am although i'm like an extrovert when i feel safe and comfortable if i'm in a new situation i am very much so introverted like not interested in conversating at all a little awkward little shy for sure i know it comes off as the opposite on this podcast but also i'm like sitting in my house on my couch hello so she's like oh my friend's calling me

she's like i met this dude who's like 37 in a uber pool one night on the way to a sean paul concert i'm like girl what what are you talking about she's like yeah he's super fun he's like a dj and does the lights at a late night club he's like hey come pick me up let's go get lunch so she's like sure fuck it like this dude is probably like one of my best friends here i want you to meet my other best friend like let's hang out so we swoop him up he's killing me he's silly silly no cares in the world 37 dj like chilling you know what i mean so we swoop him he's like oh i need to grab my stuff and drop it off at the club all of a sudden we're in the middle of this club there's an after hours club starts at 2 a.m in at 2 p.m in the afternoon

they're like restocking everything i'm like let me get behind the dj booth and take some photos so silly killing me um and he's like okay we gotta go get barbecue i'm in texas i gotta try barbecue to be fair nothing compares to kansas city barbecue i know i'm from here whatever anywhere i go nothing ever compares to Kansas City barbecue when it comes to the meats the smoking the sauces the culture of it all Kansas City is always on top but she's like okay Terry Black's is like the place it's right next to my house Terry Black's is the place that everybody goes it's always popping always busy this place was chaotic chaotic I loved that you could go in there and like pick all your sides like you could munch out best believe we smoked a lot and went in there

ready to go i got like banana pudding apple pie like mac and cheese potato salad pickled jalapenos onions i got everything okay and they're like you tell me you tell us what you want tell us the size you want we'll throw it on your tray and then you get to pick your meats and it's like there's three different ones to choose from they're pulling it out of the smoker in front of you putting it onto a cutting board right next to the checkout counter and chopping it up and throwing it on bread right in front of you it was really good it was fantastic once again nothing really compares to kansas city barbecue but the sides were killer the sides were the star of the show at terry black's uh so we filled up our on barbecue a little too much a little too much the

girlies working the counters were so sweet i was like oh that sausage looks so good she's like do you want a piece for free yes yes i do thank you queen so we filled up on barbecue we went home we took a little nap he's like okay he texted us he's like we should go to a comedy show tonight let's go to joe rogan's comedy show i'm like we're uh joe rogan i don't know but comedy like i doubt he's gonna fucking be there let's go see what's up it's a tuesday wednesday i don't know what day it is it's a weekday night it's gonna be chill no matter what i haven't been to a comedy show in a long time like fuck it let's go see what's up so we had plans that night to go to a wine cave and it was this nine course wine cave wine tasting full dinner so we're like we're gonna

love a food experience and I love like getting out of my comfort zone but I was like the theme is not theming I don't know if there even is a theme here we had at least a bottle of wine each that was guaranteed like throughout the tastings like by the end of it after these nine tastings you're gonna have drank a full bottle of wine each which fantastic love but they were pairing like a white with like a deconstructed deviled egg which was like white egg mush and caviar i was like great thank you great thank you thank you for this one bite they were pairing another white with like a cucumber raw salmon roll they were pairing my favorite was this deep red wine with a black truffle ravioli a little piece of mint and a little slice of strawberry oh talk about fantastic

it was great didn't really fill up but it was fantastic they told us about all the wines we were giggling having a good time and this to be fair paper mache fake cave but also like cute fun love the ambience love the weirdness of it all but we were definitely breaking up date night it was a little silly that me and her were there and then it's like this couple celebrating their anniversary this couple just got engaged this couple's like on their fifth date I'm like it was pretty funny but it was a great time had some fantastic wines don't know the name of the restaurant so sorry but I'm sure if you google wine cave you will find it I think it was like 130 a person maybe less maybe 95 maybe 130 total but it was a an experience like nothing

I've ever had before and I've been to plenty of wine tastings my parents always at a winery always somewhere in a winery drinking wine that's what I grew up doing like on a Saturday night I wasn't out playing with my neighbors we were at a winery somewhere and I was running around like playing tag in the vineyards oh so bougie of me but it was just like not that was just like their hobby that was like what they wanted to do so of course me the child had to tag along always but that was great loved it 10 out of 10 we looked super hot we had some good food we had some good wine great success call the uber let's go we call the uber we're smoking this blunt outside of this restaurant on our way to the mothership the mothership is joe rogan's comedy club we pull up it's like a

not that bitch who's like i can't go without my phone for an hour it's like sure whatever lock it up they put in this like little bag or whatever and then you could keep it on you i thought they were gonna keep it like somewhere else because i was like how are you gonna know which one's mine they're like no you keep it babe like okay they take us upstairs to the comedy room whatever it's this tiny little club room um and it was a two drink minimum per person so best believe we're gonna get a little silly best believe we're gonna have a good time we sit down me her her friends like third row to the back we wanted to get there a little late because best believe I'm not sitting in the front row I am not gonna get roasted I don't have the mental space to get roasted it is

suicide prevention month like let's not go there I don't need to get tore down in front of a bunch of people i will end it all in front of everybody especially in austin texas like don't let these republicans roast me i'm gonna lose it the comedians were great the first couple ones were fantastic there were some people that like were coming out i i had no idea who any of these people were let's be real i'm not keeping up with the joe rogan universe i'm there for the vibes fully i'm there for the laughs and the giggles and the goofs and the gaffs but there were some people that were walking in there that these grown men in cowboy boots were like ah for i was like who is this man that these men are screeching for like what is going on the first couple people i

could tell were like the newbies or whatever they were young obviously and they were better than the people who these grown men were screeching for they were better than the people who were on like the quote-unquote i don't know what it's called the kill tony podcast or whatever where all the comedians are they were so much better because their comedy was simply just talking about like everyday things it was making fun of people in like a very generalized way that everybody could laugh the people at the end started telling well texas joe rogan's comedy club they started telling jokes like haha biden haha kamala haha covid it's like bitch shut up no one wants to think about that we're all here to forget about everything else going on in the outside world that's why

our phone is fucking locked up no one wants to hear about that shit it's old it's overused i'm not trump with two fucking brain cells who's gonna giggle at that like even the men who were like screaming for these men who were then telling like old ass 2020 jokes like did not laugh i was like thank god there were some people who were definitely getting roast in the front row pretty silly pretty funny to laugh at other people love that for me but 10 out of 10 i thought it was a great experience i thought it was so worth the money and the two drink minimum and the 18 cocktails that were pretty mid but the comedians were great they did a great job that was probably one of my best experiences there that was probably a highlight of my night um and then since we were

out with her dj friend we were like well let's run around it was on six streets like let's run around six street to all the clubs and the bars and go check it out fuck it it's a no one else is out it's a pretty slow night this is like the only night that you're gonna be able to have like a fun experience without it being so fucking packed and there being a line and we're with him so he knows the bouncers he's like don't you dare hand an id out or pay a cover fee like fuck that just walk in like I know them don't you dare so we were bar hopping around jumping around checking things out see this DJ going to see this DJ going to this club my friend was like shots shots shots then it got to the point in the night where I was like I'm tired I'm I'm not a 5 a.m

girly anymore she is she's a night nurse so like she's used to being up late this is like her 12 p.m this is my 12 a.m very big differences you know so she's like let's keep going let's keep going I'm like I gotta you know when you have like a wild animal of a friend you're like all right let's move it this way let's go this way let me round her up and make sure she's safe and get her out of here it was kind of silly in that sort of way she was like you have to take a shot with me I'm like yeah sure definitely the bartender starts making me a shot I'm like oh no no it's okay just get her one we'll get her home safe make sure she has a good night we took some silly photos in a photo booth great night ended up at a euro truck got some feta fries killer euro ended up at home

like 3 a.m devoured a euro showered laid down weighted blanket on i passed out she was up till 6 a.m she was cleaning the house i was like babe this is impressive honestly cleaning the house playing a youtube video she took the trash out she was doing laundry i was like i have never seen somebody so functional in my entire life like honestly genuinely so impressive then we woke up at 8 a.m again you know i was ready to be up to get out to do some fun things we hit this place called austin java and i had a latte that changed my life also sorry i'm going on and on and on about this trip but some people are like i love hearing about your experiences so fuck it like let's get into it this austin java had a latte called the dubai chocolate latte i know what you

know what i'm talking about the dubai chocolate the viral dubai chocolate where they break it and then it's full like the pistachio ganache i have never had the dubai chocolate but i did want the dubai chocolate latte and i got a large of course and it was cold brew with pistachio milk and mocha life-changing life-changing fantastic so fucking good amazing once again like four dollars that latte in Kansas City would have costed me at least 15 we wanted to go to this blue hole river I think that's what it's called blue hole springs something like that essentially it's this um place outside it's near San Marcos Texas it's like an hour ish 30 45 minutes ish outside of austin texas i wanted to get in nature i wanted to frolic i wanted to be

in the forest our goal that week was really to have like a calming relaxing weekend that night was like our let's get crazy let's drink night but the rest of the week we just wanted to do our own thing and run around and really just relax it up so there's this spring that i wanted to go swim in but when we pulled up since it was raining that week they had it closed i i could tell why i mean in the pictures it was like blue gorgeous water and then when we got there it was like a little murky you know a little rainy a little cold it was like i get it i get why it's closed so we picked up this chicken sandwich by the way one of you guys dm me was like i think i just saw you walk past my liquor store i did i was walking to the pizza place next door you should have came

out and said hi but i'm saying hi now but i was walking to the pizza place next door to get like a pesto chicken sandwich so we could split for lunch we ended up just picnicking at the blue whole spring whatever under the cypress trees next to the buzzing bumblebees and the squirrels and it was gorgeous I could understand why so many people go there and picnic and hang out in the summers I bet it is fantastic and amazing but once again we were there to swim we wanted to go swimming so we ended up at the San Marcos River there was a bunch of people out picnicking enjoying their day the water was a little bit warmer it was way clearer I mean it was moving you know it was like moving and grooving so of course it's gonna be clean and clear so we ended up hiking a little

bit further down and found this amazing i was surprised by how gorgeous the water was like it was as blue as of course like when i like i haven't seen water like this since mexico of course we're close to there so obviously but the water was so clear it was gorgeous teal greens i was high as fuck staring at this water like wow this is like serene serenity incredible I would be here every day if I could you ain't gonna find that out here in Missouri okay I grew up in the Ozarks the the clarity of the water was one inch it was brown water but that's what I was used to so this was like gorgeous in my eyes you know what I mean um but we ended up at the St. Marcus River we didn't go tubing or anything tubing would have been so fun there were so many kids with tubes like going

down the waterfalls doing their thing um but we ended up hiking down a little bit and found this very secluded deep spot that we just laid out in and enjoyed the sun and swam around and oh my gosh it was just gorgeous it was incredible once again I was very pleasantly surprised by all of the nature in Austin Texas and just in Texas in general it was it was shocking to me I was not expecting any of this and I did research okay I was looking places up I was like okay you know what to expect what's going on and although the pictures are perfect I never ever trust a picture because I know there could be editing I know there could be like a little more saturation than usual whatever it is like if you're trying to advertise something of course it's going to be the best

picture possible but when I tell you the pictures were worse than what it is in real life and the pictures were gorgeous this water was like incredible I'm gonna post some pictures of my experience in Austin Texas I guess today that I post it I'm recording on Monday but I'm posting on Tuesday like the waterfalls that we swam in and the rivers and when you see these you're gonna be like wow that is incredible anyways we ended up back home we showered we change and then we ended up at this gorgeous i we were on i think we were on rainy street i guess is what it's called um there's a bunch of just like really cute little spots and houses that you can go hang out at and get some dinner and we ended up at this place called lichas

which is very similar to my restaurant but if it was mexican food and we had the best dinner i have had in a while we had guacamole fresh salsa fresh chips we got chicken mole we got steak tacos we got two drinks each once again so cheap under a hundred dollars was not expecting this we sat out on the patio it was so nice we were able to enjoy the weather enjoy the moment we got there at the perfect time because as soon as we sat down like there was a line out the door immediately of course probably because we were sitting outside and we were just so cute that everybody wanted to come eat at the restaurant i'm kidding but it was amazing 10 out of 10 recommend if you're in Austin Texas food was incredible service was incredible loved it all around and then since

we were running around all day and we had one last day we went home early did a face mask smoked out of the two foot long bong and then she corrupted my brain she corrupted me in a way that I will never forgive her for she made me download dress to impress I have never been more addicted to a video game in my entire life I we sat there and played dress and impress for at least four hours at the minimum at the minimum you will sit down and play this game and all of a sudden it's like eight hours later and you're like what happened I've only been on my phone for five minutes it is so fun it is so fun genuinely I'm going to finish recording this podcast I'm gonna play about an hour of it it is my favorite thing to do now and she has corrupted me but we had a

great time that night just ripping the bong and doing a face mask and playing that like what are girls supposed to do you know what i mean we wake up the next morning of course another dubai chocolate latte and then this is also so my favorite nightlife experience was the mothership my favorite favorite favorite like nature experience that we did was this place called kraus springs it's about an hour outside of austin texas i love that like i was taking her to places that she had never heard of she's like what the fuck is this place why why are we driving this far but like fuck it let's do it you know she's down for anything you say you want to do something she's like in the car let's go that's why i love her she's like a down ass bitch um so this place

called kraus springs which is actually a campsite but they have these spring-fed waterfalls and a butterfly garden and we were driving in down this dirt road we saw a sign it was like cattle crossing i was like cattle what are you talking about there's cows everywhere as you drive in beautiful beautiful blondie brown cows doing their thing we're like calling out to them private land private property you pull up it is like the garden of eden in there there are these massive cypress trees with these wind chimes hanging down from them it was a little cloudy a little windy so like the sound of these chimes hold on let me pull it up i was like this is my heaven i have been to many a beautiful places but this honestly tops it like what are you kidding me she's

deathly afraid of butterflies so we were walking in this butterfly garden i could tell she was like on edge but it was just you walk in you get your little wristband you're in this lush garden oasis with these like running little fountains and waterfalls these beautiful cactuses large trellises of fresh flowers and beautiful trees there's hammocks out there's chairs you can sit and read in and then you hike down and there is a private pool like this beautiful deep blue pool that is fresh spring fed so we swam in that a little and then when you walk down the steps there are these beautiful waterfalls fresh moss covered waterfalls with this area for swimming with this rock area for laying out I was like we're gonna be here for a while so we dove in

we swam we frolicked under the waterfalls we took some cute pictures we laid in the garden we had some good food it was just the most magical experience of my life I was like I don't think heaven exists but if it does exist it is this place right here right now and let me tell you this girls will be in the most magical place on earth and they will still be undressed to impress best believe we frolicked a little our little hearts out we played around in the waterfalls we swam tired ourselves out walked back up to the garden we laid on a hammock for about two hours under the wind chimes under the large cypress trees playing just to impress of course until our phones died absolutely what are girls supposed to do you know relaxing evening best believe i

will be playing dress to impress she has corrupted me so funny this kills me this was a little silly so there's this place called the oasis which is on a lake travis which was on the way home and apparently it is supposed to be the largest restaurant in the united states it's right on the edge of the water it's supposed to be a magical beautiful she was like oh yeah i visited my friend up in wisconsin and even her like her grandma i brought up austin texas and the first thing she mentioned was the oasis i'm like okay you're hyping this place up like let's go check it out let's go see major major l do not go there that was the only place that i was like okay this is my first like pretty cheesy experience in Austin Texas like we sat down we looked around

we all we wanted was like a cocktail we looked at the menu they were $18 cocktails excuse me also the entire river or the lake that it was on was like dried up so it wasn't even that beautiful and we like sat down we got our waters I have never done this at a restaurant before but she looked at me and she's like i think we have to go i think we have to go which listen i'm a server i would rather someone come in sit down realize it's not the right place and leave before like wasting my time and them having a bad experience so i was like oh my god so we got up we grabbed like the little to-go cups and we like sprinted out of there really quickly ended up at this place called p terry's which listen i'm an in and out girl through and through i was like i need in and out

if it's here she's like no you have to have p terry's p terry's is like the burger place in all of Austin so of course we got like a triple cheeseburger extra onions extra jalapeno caramel coffee milkshake like let's go home devoured that packed up all of a sudden I'm back on the plane and I am back home had a busy weekend worked my little butt off I worked all weekend um my boyfriend took me to the sunflower fields the other day which was so gorgeous and incredible and a Kansas staple like you just have to go every September when they're blooming you have to go see the sunflower fields it's like miles and miles of eight foot tall big ass yellow sunflowers like gorgeous so he's so sweet I got off the plane I got to brunch I worked my shift he took me to the

fields we took some pictures we frolicked in the fields went home fell asleep worked another brunch shift went to family dinner I literally like blinked that trip was over I am back here back with you guys and wow was it an experience Austin Texas you treated me so well the people were so nice they had that midwestern friendliness maybe it's that southern hospitality um that was just so kind and so welcoming everybody was so fun we were in David Yerman they're like oh what do you plan on doing in your trip here she's like smoke weed and hang out and they were like yes bitch like that's what you're supposed to do like we're in this high-end jewelry store and they're like love that for you girls like thank god you're gonna do that so we frolicked our little hearts

out we had some great wine some fantastic food and it was just 10 out of 10 trip i understand why so many people are moving there i get it i get that that's annoying for everybody living there like i understand i probably won't move there because like i still want to have rights i cannot live in texas in general the same way i like couldn't live in florida but visiting was a treat and i am so lucky the city treated me so well and i'm so thankful for all the experiences that i did have um and if you want to see pictures from it follow the instagram at hannah marlene i will be posting some cute sexy fun photos um but yeah that was just such a treat see she is such a good friend she's such a down bitch she's like whatever you want to do like let's get it done i was there

for four days and we did so much it was so nice and i'm so thankful to have a friend like her in my life and I'm so thankful to be able to garner these experiences and I know one day even if I develop dementia I'll be laying on my deathbed thinking about these moments and genuinely that makes me so happy that's what life's all about you best live it to the best experience that you can no matter what every moment that you have go out and enjoy I think people wonder like how I travel so much and how I make these things happen but really I think a lot of traveling it's not the money aspect it really is just the planning if you have enough time beforehand if you have a place that you want to go you can get it done if you plan accordingly if you watch those flights

if you budget correctly if you really pay attention to what's going on I think you really can make anything happen I talked about that with my Wyoming trip which is just like if you want it you gotta go get it we got one life to live you will be pleasantly surprised at every turn even if it is like not an exciting place like maybe an hour out not a full flight I think you'll be surprised by what a new perspective gives you on life and that is exactly what I have now so thank you for listening me ramble on about my trip hopefully it kept you entertained nothing cuckoo crazy happened thank god I really was not trying to have that happen I didn't want anything crazy I didn't want another 420 my dad gets arrested kind of situation I really was just looking

forward to a really relaxing and joyful weekend with my bestie and that's exactly what i got so thank you universe for making that workout for me thank you to the waterfalls and the gardens and the comedy club and her friends who showed me around and made me feel at home um it was just so fun but i am so exhausted i am so tired uh my boyfriend started his new job so i have the day to myself i think i'm going to deep clean my entire house because i have a really bad habit of every time i go on vacation everything's just thrown about i never deep clean so today is a get your life back on fucking track hannah kind of day um so with that being said i know this was basically an episode of me rambling on about my experience and like so sorry about that i know you came here

for your questions and i hear you um i do do an extra um episode every thursday for my patreon girlies i answer every single question that you guys send me so i think this week i'm just going to make that public of course i will only be answering um the questions for my patrons from my patrons so if you want your question answered go join patreon i post a lot on there we have a fun fucking time you get extra content from me every single week it's fantastic but I think I'm gonna make it public for everybody so then you kind of get a little extra episode a little I'm sorry episode you know what I mean but since we do have like what like 20 more minutes left here let's kind of do a little question roulette to end this on a high note someone

said all you do on this app is smoke weed bake and post outfits I love you real that's really all I want to do in this life um so of course that's all I'm going to post on Instagram oh by the way I bought wi-fi on a flight for the first time ever in my entire life and it was on the flight on the way to Austin Texas because I knew I it's I'm up I'm not going back to bed my ADHD is not gonna let that happen so I was editing a cooking vid that I made and I finally got to use my cast iron skillet and I made the best grilled cheese ever it was I used sourdough and jalapeno cheddar bread with mozzarella and sharp cheddar i put honey crisp apples that we picked at the farm fresh local honey crisp apples thinly sliced black forest ham arugula i made hot honey drizzled it

all over oh my god it was so cute also it's a really cute video so go check it out on instagram um i posted it that day but that was worth the eight dollar wi-fi i was like eight dollar latte or eight dollar wi-fi i think i'm gonna go with wi-fi speaking of someone said feeling guilty like a bad girlfriend barely being able to cook for my boyfriend so stressed please help i don't know why men think we're their fucking mommies and you're supposed to make them dinner and feed them milk every single day bitch if that man can't cook for himself and pick up some slack here and there then he's not a partner here's the thing when it comes to partnerships it's not gonna look the same for everybody that's why we're not all housewives right now you know what I mean we all

can't be the same exact human being we're not all going to be able to cook for each other we're not all going to have the energy to do so and when you don't have that energy your partner's supposed to pick up for you your partner's supposed to take over like if I don't want to cook dinner one day and I look my boyfriend in the eyes and I go I need you to make this no questions asked he's getting it done and that's why I love him but if you do need to learn how to cook please check out my Instagram I think I'm gonna make some long-form YouTube videos where sure I post like the quick recipe on Instagram but then I also like walk you through step by step on like a longer YouTube video on YouTube obviously so if you do need some tips and tricks on how to cook I've been cooking

for forever my uncle is a chef like I love food I've been in the restaurant industry for forever and I want to share that with you guys because I think it's way easier than you've ever you could ever imagine I think you just need a little bit of encouragement so stay tuned for that but yeah don't feel bad don't feel bad everybody's gonna be able to do what they can and if you can't do it then that's just who you are baby but I think you'd be surprised at how easy it is to learn someone said not a question but listening to your pod pushed me to work for my dream life I've always wanted yes I love that I was talking about this on the patreon where it was like genuinely like I created this podcast not to be like another bitch with a fucking podcast talking about

nothing like there's so many of those and I it's just like it's so draining listening to them because it's like what the fuck is this bitch going on about and listen I'm sure people listen to this podcast and that's what they take from it but my goal with this and I think this comes from my art background especially like going to the art institute and being forced to find meaning and everything is that the same way when you look at a piece of art I want everybody to take something from it whatever that is I want somebody to take something from it and then apply it to themselves to learn more about themselves through a piece of art I want to be that kind of influence and I love that this podcast has that influence where it's like no matter who listens you can

walk away with something from this I go through so many questions so many ideas so many thoughts so many feelings and all I want people to take from this is a hopefully positivity obviously but I just want you to learn something about yourself I want you to look inward a little bit more I want this podcast to be almost like a mirror reflection and for you to hopefully see the light in yourself and to want to grow and do better so that makes me so fucking happy tips for talking with a dry ass texter listen that's me but usually like that's me with friends you know like once I'm comfortable it's like girl I'm not texting you come see me you know come knock on my door whatever but if it's with like a man and you're getting to know each other or like a girly

and you're getting to know each other and it's like I just want to like have something fun to chat about every once in a while that could that can be really annoying that could be very annoying but not everybody is as good as everybody else is going to be but I do have a feeling that if you're truly into somebody you will kind of adjust in a sort of way where you're not going to be dry anymore so if they're dry maybe they're not interested oh my god i'm so sorry to say that but also sometimes you got to take things at face value don't take it too personally you know what i mean maybe once again they just are not good at texting but also if you need a good texter maybe that's not the person for you oh my god you guys also i was flipping through like our local casey

magazine um because my restaurant gets new ones every week or not every week every month when they put out a new edition i was flipping and i was flipping and then i saw a article in there called smoke show and i was like oh okay cannabis and life advice column did they get some inspiration from me that's me having a big fucking head um but like also i'm like let me write for you hello if anybody's gonna write for you it better be me smoke show girl someone said girl i don't know if I'm ready for this cold weather I know I know I actually just bought my winter coat for the season I find that as long as I have a very cute winter coat it's like okay I don't give a fuck what I'm wearing as long as I have my cute winter coat on I can look a mess and I can go outside and I can

brave that weather so pro tip when it comes to winter clothing um mine is a hot pink penny lane jacket it's a little crazy this time around it's a little crazy for winter but I was feeling myself I thought it'd be fun. Fuck it. I always get a new coat for the season just so I can feel like excited about something and have something fun to throw on especially like if I'm running to Pilates or running to get groceries like at least I still feel fabulous. Also I've spent all summer like practically sprinting around and doing everything that I can. I think this is the first season of my life that I am looking forward to winter because it kind of forces everybody to slow down. It forces everybody to fall back inward to check on what's going on inside to make sure

our homes and our lives and our mental health is in order and I do think that is like a very important aspect of winter that people forget about like sure the seasonal depression scaries I get you but also I think it is such a great reminder and I think about leaving winter all the time moving somewhere that it's 75 and sunny constantly but I would be on go mode all the time and I think it is such a nice reminder to really do that inward checking and I have been just so busy that i am really looking forward to it um it's all about perspective you know what i mean you can be terrified of something and then you can hold that fear within and then that fear really translates into a fight or flight mode especially when that situation arrives because you have hyped

up all this anxiety and i have found that winters in the past have been like that for me especially because winter can be so hard but now i am really taking preventative measures and really enjoying my summer to the max so when winter does come around i have a good routine i have activities in place that will keep me sane that will get me out of the house such as pilates hanging out with friends going to work whatever it is and also i am excited to finally slow down i'm not gonna lie i am excited to finally take a breath to be inside to chill to enjoy me here and i think we all forget to do that sometimes birth control has made me crazy hormonal and i feel like a bad girlfriend please help yep yep yep yep when i was on the pill oh devil i was the devil reincarnated quite

frankly i was a horrible awful human being and that was not me that was the pill taking over me i think one of the best things you can do for yourself as a woman is find a good good doctor whether it's an ob-gyn practitioner whatever it is I only trust women doctors I'm sorry I do at this point too many male doctors have not asked me for consent before being like okay let me do this to you like whatever like it's just a part of their routine they don't think about things like that and once I found a really good female doctor who for the first time in my life when I was 23 years old like asked me can I am I allowed to do this to you I was like well if you think so she's like no I need like I want verbal consent from you I want you to know that you do have this power in

place and you do have a choice over what happens to your body especially in a place that is um medical and that changed my perspective forever I was like oh wow I only trust this bitch now honestly like I don't trust anybody else I trust her and she changed my life and my perspective on medication and hormones and really helps me find the right hormonal birth control for me because I found that you know maybe too much of this was bad too little this was bad you gotta find the sweet spot you know it's like Goldilocks and the porridge it's too hot it's too cold you gotta find the just right spot and having a good doctor by your side to help you manage through that especially when you're maybe going through the bad times is a great great team member to

have on your side and if you don't like your hormonal birth control you can change it you absolutely can I'm so lucky to have found one that works for me I did a lot of research I did a lot of talking a lot of really trying to understand my body and what would be the best thing for me and I ended up going with the IUD as you guys know I am on my second IUD and I'm so thankful for her thank you for not being pregnant thank you for being the steel gates of my uterus she is everything to me and she also really helped me balance my period whereas before I was gushing blood no matter where I went and I was anemic and just so tired all the time because of it helped me really lighten my periods and also manage my hormones which in turn made my skin better made my head

clearer fantastic fantastic all around someone said broke up with my boyfriend and the most beautiful man came into my life it's worth it girls that's so funny real sometimes you gotta close the door to open a new one you know what I mean what do you do for your period to make you feel better i'm struggling a lot of ibuprofen and also i allow the crazy to be crazy i allow the hormones to be hormoning you know when you try and fight crazy with sanity when all you want to do is be a crazy bitch you go a little bit more insane whereas if you lean into the crazy i feel like you feel more or more sane you know what i mean um my last period it was a little brutal i'm not gonna lie i was like crying at work i was sobbing on the floor my boyfriend's

like what's going on but he was like girl just let it out like you don't have to hide it you're at home like let that shit out if you need to sob and roll around the floor like i'm here for you and that's exactly what i did and best believe i felt so much better for it you know those cheesy rom-com movies where the girl gets broken up and she's laying on the floor eating old chinese food sobbing her heart out spoon with the pint of ice cream you know face mask on like sobbing but also like taking care of herself at the same time that's exactly what i do on my period to make me feel better i don't fight the crazy i let the crazy be i just work with the hormones i flow with them not against them i treat myself i try and take care of myself through it all and i feel

like that makes it so much easier than pretending you're trying you're sane when in reality you're not advice on properly managing expectations especially in romantic relationships and friendships when you put somebody on a pedestal you are not allowing them to be themselves when you put somebody on a pedestal you are giving them a god-like quality that no human is ever going to be able to live up to and thus you will be disappointed by every single person that walks into your life and you will constantly leave them searching for that perfect person and you will never find them you will always be alone that's a little scary i'm so sorry i know but when you truly let people be human and you let them be weird you have the ick they make mistakes you

know what I mean and you allow forgiveness to exist in that relationship you are going to build stronger more long-lasting more fulfilling relationships than you have ever had in your entire life sure you might get hurt sure they might say the wrong thing sure you might get annoyed with them or upset or whatever thus is the human condition I fear we have no choice and if you hold people to these godlike qualities no one will ever live up to your expectations and you will constantly be searching for something that you will never find so allow people to be themselves allow them to open themselves up to you as who they truly are and love them despite it all relationships that work well love each other through the good the bad the ugly they love them

no matter what not conditionally when you love somebody conditionally that is a face value relationship that is not a strengthy relationship that is not a healthy boundary to build that relationship on you're not allowing them to be themselves you want them to be this character you want them to be this god and people will never be that for you girl please help me i just moved in with my boyfriend and i need tips for living with a man love you headphones headphones having your own space is nice like he has his little like gamer room his office or whatever i have like my art room which is really nice and it's not like I have a five bedroom house to be able to do that it's just like okay I'm taking over this corner of the house he's taking over this corner of the

house having your own space to be your own person to feel like you can garner your own personality while also sharing a space I think is very important especially in a relationship headphones also if he's getting annoying like put your headphones on check out you know what I mean making sure there's snacks around the house I find most times that I fight with my boyfriend is just because I'm hungry and if I had a granola bar in hand I would be okay you're not you when you're hungry how to forgive yourself love you miss Hannah I love you if you don't forgive yourself you'll never grow if you constantly stay in this state of I hate I did this I hate I did this I hate I did this you're living in a self-depreciating state where you will never

grow from that because you're constantly living in that idea in that personality in that moment you're not allowing yourself to move forward it's the same thing with forgiveness for other people if you don't forgive and move on you're never going to allow them the opportunity in the room to grow and I think forgiveness is not a golden ticket that you hand them that's like okay you get a pass on this I think forgiveness comes from specifically them showing and this this is also in the realm of you and relationships but you or them showing that you have grown and done better that's when you hand out forgiveness it's not like okay I'm gonna put my emotions aside and pretend that never happened no that's not forgiveness that's not true forgiveness there's

not going to be any development from that it's probably going to happen again true forgiveness comes from proving to that person proving to yourself that I'm not that person maybe I was but I don't want to be anymore and I have made active steps in my life to grow and heal and change from that moment that's when forgiveness comes into play but if you do not do those things and you do not offer forgiveness you will never change you will never grow forgiveness is easier to give than you might think I don't think you have to live in the self-depreciating state of mind where it's like oh but I did this I'm such a bad person I'm such a bad person it's like if you say that about yourself then guess what you're the narrator of your own life maybe you are a bad

person but if you did a bad thing and you're human that's okay that doesn't mean you're a bad person it just means we have room for growth and we need to make those changes in order to grow and in order to forgive forgiveness is such a blessing and i think we need to offer it a little bit more i feel like the tiktok brain really took over a lot of people and it's like cut them off if they hurt you one time get rid of them throw them to the street but i think a lot of people are very lonely because of that and i think a lot of people are constantly searching for once again that god like human that simply does not exist and if you constantly cut people off if you constantly you know put yourself down because of oh I'm a human and I made one bad mistake you will be aimlessly

wandering this wasteland constantly alone so I think we need to offer more forgiveness to people especially nowadays the one thing that I think is lacking um especially in interpersonal relationships or maybe in your own relationship with yourself is just a little bit of kindness and kindness really does go a long way anyways I know that was a quick podcast I know I talked about myself a lot i'm so sorry but austin texas did treat me really well and i wanted to share it with you guys and i hope you enjoyed me rambling on about myself a little bit more than usual i had a blast and i'm so thankful for all the connections and the people that i met and the great food and the frolicking it was such a wonderful time and just so thankful to be able
