Ever pondered how a simple chat over chocolate can lead to life-changing decisions? Join us on this episode as we unwind with festive snacks, tackle the quirks of our recording equipment, and pour our hearts out over career dilemmas. With the comforting wisdom of our friend Manali and the steadfast support of Ante, we explore the rollercoaster of pursuing passions amidst life's uncertainties. It's a tale of friendship, mentorship, and the transformative power of embracing change, all wrapped up in genuine and heartwarming exchanges.

But don't worry, we haven't forgotten the lighter side of life! Get ready for some belly laughs as we tackle the curious case of the "Monster Mash" mix-up, dream up the bizarre scenario of a "Terminator neighbor," and attempt to dodge English class drudgery with national tests. Alongside these shenanigans, we muse about chocolate's rightful place in our recording rituals and reflect on why burping might not be the best live mic strategy. Whether you're here for the deep talks or the delightful tangents, this episode promises warmth, laughter, and a touch of the unexpected.

Speaker 1:

We can just talk a little.

Speaker 2:

Did we even check the microphone? I don't think so. You are too fast. This is the correct microphone.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's the same, it is.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. Yeah, I didn't have to change it because it was already there. I just had to check it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

So I'm thinking, if that other microphone doesn't want to work while we are filming, we're going to have to use this.

Speaker 1:

Okay For you. Yeah, is that going to work?

Speaker 2:

Well, we will probably need a separate recording device, which means that there's going to be mixing involved. And we all love mixing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's great.

Speaker 2:

There's two ghosties and three pumpkins. I think I ate more pumpkins than you.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 1:

Mm-hmm yeah.

Speaker 2:

Mistakes were made.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, mm-hmm, eating and talking at the same time, mm-hmm, that's a mistake. Yeah, eating and talking at the same time, that's a mistake.

Speaker 2:

Yeah Well, this is getting cut. It's just the beginning. Okay, Time to fix, as usual. I still don't remember why I got this notebook.

Speaker 1:

No, no one knows.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 2:

They came out really cute though.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Very messy, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, yeah, no.

Speaker 1:

You're going to have to lick your fingers. I know.

Speaker 2:

I wipe it on my glasses, that's an option. I guess that's the yoga mat.

Speaker 1:

I'm going to move into your apartment.

Speaker 2:

That's how you clean it up. That's how you do it. Do you want some water?

Speaker 1:

I have this.

Speaker 2:

Well, we don't know when we're going to open them.

Speaker 1:

Okay well.

Speaker 2:

Would you like some water?

Speaker 1:

Speaker 2:

No, I'm good, why? Okay, then Give me some water Hydrate. It's good for you.

Speaker 1:

I had like a thousand teas today.

Speaker 2:

Like three.

Speaker 1:

Felt like a thousand to me. Four, was it four for me?

Speaker 2:

I think so, because we had you had one more than me. One vanilla, two chives.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, and then the peach, so you had five. Oh my God, you're worse than me, mm-hmm. Well, I'm faster than you.

Speaker 2:

No, that's true, yeah but Don't you dare mention anything. You be quiet. What Okay, you be quiet what you had chocolate all over my face.

Speaker 1:

I don't see any chocolate.

Speaker 2:

No, I felt it on my face.

Speaker 1:

Well, I have to for sure.

Speaker 2:

You're okay.

Speaker 1:

Thank you, there's nothing there, oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

I called Manali the day that I got my offer.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I messaged her during the day. I was like I need some emergency future help okay I needed somewhere to go to someone to talk to, so and she was the first person I thought of yeah, I mean I wasn't much help.

Speaker 1:

No, I really can't like help you decide no, and it's really my decision and everything. Did she answer?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, we booked a time to talk that evening, okay. And she said that my mom, like, ran up front.

Speaker 1:

Oh.

Speaker 2:

My mom came forward like as soon as she started. Okay, like as soon as she started.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

And when she was basically just saying you know, don't worry about it, you know we can rely on Andreas financially, so the financials won't be a problem. And she was saying that Manali saw me not staying there at Unleavable until September, august, anyway. She figured that I would go a lot sooner and maybe get a job in between what I'm actually going for. But maybe something unexpected will happen after that. So it was all good things, luckily. I mean. I don't really know how much I should rely on that kind of thing. No, I don't know either.

Speaker 1:

And it's like when we were talking about my. When she read me she said it's going to be a change and it is, and it's going to be fine for me, but apparently it looks like it's not.

Speaker 2:

Maybe it feels like that now, but I mean, things can change.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, I guess we'll see.

Speaker 2:

But yeah, she was all for me, pretty much quitting and going for what I'm going after, yeah, and I think those were the words I needed.

Speaker 1:

And that was like the thing that.

Speaker 2:

It was basically that. And then I talked to Ante after and he was basically like go for it, like if you have that drive, then you should be chasing it. And he was like I've never had that kind of drive. I've never really like wanted to do anything and go for it.

Speaker 1:

No.

Speaker 2:

Or he didn't have anything to go for. No.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

So he was like you know what, just go for it. And that's what made me decide, Because she was also saying that if I was doing the evening shifts, she sensed health problems.

Speaker 1:

And.

Speaker 2:

I was like, yes, I know I'm going to have health problems going into evening shift and then day shift the next week.

Speaker 1:

Okay.

Speaker 2:

So yeah, that's basically what made me make up my mind.

Speaker 1:

Good, it was good, it felt really good. Yeah, I kind of felt like you did it for me, just to give me, and I'm like that was a huge part of the motivation too. Yeah, but I was like you shouldn't base it on me. That's not what I want, because I mean, if you wanted to stay, I think you should have stayed, not just say no, because it gives me a better chance. Yeah, but I, so I'm glad to hear that you had other thoughts as well.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was a very emotional day.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I left that office in a panic. I'm trying to hold myself together in the office. I'm a strong individual woman or independent woman. I can stand up to you people and then I walk out the door. I'm like, what do I do?

Speaker 1:

I'm so strong.

Speaker 2:

I'm panicking because I don't know what the future looks like, and it's really scary. It is still really scary.

Speaker 1:

You're like. I think I left my strength in there.

Speaker 2:

I need to come back and pick this up.

Speaker 1:

I think it just like shed right off of me yeah, and I mean I felt so calm when I got the call about me not, uh, staying.

Speaker 2:

I'm like yeah, okay, that's whatever yeah, uh, I mean was he like I'm sorry and I wish it wasn't like this?

Speaker 1:

or was he just straightforward, yeah?

Speaker 2:

it was. It wasn't like Hase. Like Hase how do you mean? Yeah, like he really wanted to keep you. But couldn't.

Speaker 1:

No, it wasn't like that.

Speaker 2:

I guess because it wasn't his decision.

Speaker 1:

No, no, that's true so no it was pretty straightforward, but I was kind of prepared for it so it didn't really bother me that much, although I wanted to stay.

Speaker 2:

but of course. Yeah, that's how it is.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's how it is, and it is really scary yeah I try not to think about it while I'm not in the future no, exactly, yeah, but I'm I'm just thinking so if I take that box, or check that box uh, do do if. When I come back, what does that mean? Does that mean I'm team mansell?

Speaker 2:

yeah, you start over, okay and that's basically what they were offering for me too yeah like yeah, and they gave me the five months and I was like so I'm basically starting over. She's like yeah, pretty much I was like I don't know about that no I mean, I worked hard and I panicked enough just to get here and you want me to start over after all these years?

Speaker 2:

yeah, that's not what I really signed up for no so I might as well start over somewhere else yeah somewhere that actually wants and needs me and where I can do my best yeah do the things I want to do. Yeah, that's how I see it, anyway. So, yeah, if you ended up being a team Missy again, you'd have to work your year before you even get a chance to be fussed again.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, it's just nine months. Yeah, maybe it's even less now with the new place. Who knows? I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I don't know, is that you, that's me. Okay, I definitely feel the five kilos that I've gained today and I'm at 6,000.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I'm not doing great.

Speaker 1:

No, hey, I'm doing great. I'm at 5,000.

Speaker 2:

Good job.

Speaker 1:

Thank you.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

Speaker 1:
