Hey. I welcome to rage top. My weekly show where I sit here. Drink caffeine and talk about random things this week, I'm talking about noah's artwork Oh a whole one thing about getting a bikini wax jack's very embarrassed, I'm going on vacation next week with my family, ah, so tell me, I mean awareness cobra right now, which is pretty unfortunate, pretty uncomfortable cause. You know, if you get low enough jack, you can't you can't wear the sports bra cause then like it shows. And I know you're not going to tell me if my bras are showing I was thinking just now. I'm like I should just come out sometime like intentionally put something really obnoxious in my teeth and see. If you tell me cause you won't
it, just let me go, do and then like edit, the video and never see it and now be they jack. I literally like without happened recently, where We have a zoom in on the whole thing like my pants, runs it or something crazy and you didn't notice eventually videos like just my mouth, my boyfriend, that attack I now so. I am taking advantage of his absence to wear my retainer. He called me unexpectedly, the other day, How do I get it out, but it's been so long since I put my retainer in that I like, if so tat, on my mouth is all it took me a minute to get it out and by the time,
I turn on the facetime. He was like what's happening, I'm like I had to take my retainer out he's like you, have a retainer mike yeah. So why don't you ever wear that when I'm around I'm like cause? I want you to still love me. I mean obviously, do you have a retainer jack y'all have retainers where you have permanent retainers. Does food get stuck in, explain to me what, if like wait? What is it? at the wire behind dirty. Oh, I never did that should have cause it's this tooth, and you know when I see it rich talk when I have to watch an edited video cause dac will send me the edited video and I'm like. Oh, you know the this things crazier. You can't understand whatever to group, is what I'm saying and like? I can always tell word mauritania, because this too right here will start to slowly go backwards.
It was like a shadow. Do you ever feel like you just it's, never ending the upkeep of human life and by human life. I mean lashes, nails, retainers jack. I would love to compare the amount of like upkeep. I have to the upkeep you have. I would love it if yours is what thirty seconds yeah minds like just concept like I just did this actually big like not having nail polishes like a huge thing in my life, I do wish I'd kneel on medicare right now looks a little rough. I gave myself a mani pedi, the other night. Another thing that happened because boo is out of town and and you,
I wish, I knew how to do it like like that, the cow they do it at the place, I'm doing my best, but I'm going to probably you don't need to know this, but I'm going to tell you did I tell you that I lost it to now yeah, still, no, how ok I vague leave. Remember, possibly dropping something on my foot. This was a while ago and that's not unusual because and pretty clumsy. I know it's hard leave because I'm so graceful
but I'm actually very clumsy in real life. I tend to hurt myself a lot and I drop something on my foot didn't think I mean just moved on with my life. I'm sure I had a big dramatic breakdown cried the floor. You know needed someone to hold me, but I moved on and then the next time I went to get a pedicure. You know they took the nail polish off and they were like. Oh your, your toes, really bruised like under the nails really bruise and I was like that's wild, but I couldn't remember what I did and it didn't matter anyway. Until Started to to disconnect from it's origins, okay, if you've ever lost a toenail you'll, be familiar with this, but it would have been fine all it would have been fine, except that I ran a marathon, and that was when my toenail said it's been
knowing you but I'm out and when you lose a toenail, you gotta like start from scratch. Essentially, but I mean, if someone's gross out my fee, that you're barking. Why you're? Why our listening to this and I am sorry. I never said that this was gonna, be classy, I the neck. Why went- and I have my was all scary and I was a sort of like work around it. That's a silken pedicure and the guy. Like oh well, we can put like em like acrylic or whenever over there
to keep it safe and also to make it look like you have a toenail, and I was like great plan and I had that for a hot minute and then I last week my toast started. It was red and I was like thats funny and then the next day it was really red and I was like. Oh no. I have an infection like this. Is I'm gonna lose my toe? I'm going to lose my big toe, because I was vain because I wanted them to put acrylic on it to cover up the fact that. Didn't- have a toenail because I'm still trying to impress boo and I'm like. Will he still love me? If I don't have a toenail and anyway it's like was infectious, but then I'm like, I can't go back to the nail salon. I'm like this thing is infected, I'm not like giving it to them to do surgery on Jan he doesn't know cause. He does not you're not in this world. there is another thing: a pettycury would love more than to just. Tear out your soul with those tight giver like hell,
In grown toenail- and I mean it is their personal mission, it is like that is everything that is standing in between them, and goodness and they will weren't you cry and your story yourself backwards in the chair. They do not care. They're, like I gotta, get it out. You know how, when you go, secure people and they like to they squeeze your toe they're like does it hurt? You guys know what I'm talking about to see. If you have an ingrown, if you had an ingrown toenail jack, if it they squeeze, it it'll hurt a hundred times in my life, they've been working on it. I might cry. Crying cause. It hurts so bad and then they'll be like. Does it hurt yeah, it hurts like a hot poker, is being stabbed into my side and I'm like no doesn't hurt. Cause, I don't want them to keep working. Please leave my toe alone I'm realising all of these like non confrontational moments. This is part of being not being we need. More is gonna, be anyway.
I don't want to take my infected to to the place to have them because I feel like they're, going to make it worse. So I'm here by myself wearing my retainer and I say we're gonna- have to figure this out or watch youtube video and figure out how to take this acrylic off my and I'm in my bathroom, for for like an hour the other night, slowly painstakingly getting this off my toe only to reveal I what what can I even describe that this looks? Like I mean it's, It's a travesty! It's been doctored, it's been peroxide. It it's been neo sport and the infection parts gone, so don't worry I'll, be able to keep the tow, but what it looks like right now. What is like? I can't
I don't have a you know if you are a runner and he never lost. You understand like under a tone now is like just layers of more wanna, be toenails and then they're all growing different. It's like an onion jack I think I'm going to throw out. It's just upsetting is what you need to know, and next week I'm going on vacation with my bill and his family and and it's a beach and means. There is no hiding this toe. So what do I do jack? What do I do? I do I paint over skin and hope that just looks like a toenail. Do you think that what would you do they k people? I've met twice. from another country and are flying to this country. To go to a beach like here is Tell don't mind me: won't you
it was to get rid of it: okay, yeah yeah, like a band aid or something, and then just hope, nobody sees yeah it's pretty. I just feel like sand ocean is gonna, get Why are we already talked about this? These people are english there, like proper in whatever and Marty. why do I tell have to give up on me now last week, Fine, it still had that acrylic on it.

Also, speaking of the beach I'm to get a bikini wax jack river had I would pay one thousand dollars Just haven't did you're not like dollar faint, but just your face, while you gotta bikini wax I don't know if it would to her way worse on a guy, probably maybe I think so because more sense, do you know what happens Do you understand what happens in a bikini wax now? Look everybody look. I know that you could be doesn't matter like could ever be, will say the three you We were like oh there'll, be like oh, why you say: the women are beautiful and we love your body and all of those things. But then you like get your bikini yeah,
ro? I do love my body. I don't want my puber growing out of my bathing suit when I met the beach I I love my body? I don't love my pupils bro guys. I love. That's me. We know it's. The last episode mysteriously today any way. Okay, so jack you're gonna go into her room and probably the wax or has been your long time lax or in france there very familiar with you back in the beginning of your relationship. They leave the room so that you could get undressed but like at this point, your old friend, so they live in italy, vermin. Just like you drop trout, you get up table. If you who are modest. Like me, you still cover the area with the tao. Don't ask me why? Because the second she walks up to the table, she's taken the tower, but you're, not from the waist down. Ok and then they're gonna start chatting
never in my life and I had a wax or who did not chat you up, and I think it's all part of their plans so that you will ignore the fact that hair is about ripped out you'll join. That's what's about that, or in your case, what is going on down there. and then there they have like this, all of like lava temperature wax and they have at popsicle stacks and they take, and in like and the plague on you and you just start. First saw you flop, sweat, you're, sweating out your pits you're sweating in your butt, you're sweating. Every work is you're. Just like this is about to be bad, that you're trying to pretend it's not cause she's chatting about the vacation that took the porter answers in your like. Oh my gosh, that sounds amazing, but you know it's coming embrace yourself, don't brace yourself that'll, make it worse, but you can't help that you're going to brace yourself cause, you know and then all of a sudden you're just like and then yeah and like you, can't not react as she whips.
hair out of your body in strips now? If you have a good wax or there's this place that I used to go to in los angeles, it's gotta still be there because it had been there for, like thirty years or something called pink cheeks on ventura, pink cheeks was famous that they could get you there now and like eight minutes, didn't matter what they were doing, they were like boom done every time my girls, pretty close at, say, she's, like fifteen twelve. It's it's a quick situation. but they're, you know they're wax you and some parts jack hurt worse than others. Some parts you're like man do that ten times I don't care, didn't fill a don't care. Some some parts feel like you're, you're, they're, literally ripping your soul out of your body with the wax and then sometimes I don't get all they hersel the get tweezers jack and that's what feels like torture. When let me just yeah they like. Let me just get like a couple but
monsieur Magnano. No ma am nope lever All I'm trying to do is cover up like what is the baby it. The bathing suit will cover this leave a b. One time I went. My sister's waxed her and it was someone I had. Never had before and that chick her attitude was like we'll be friends and we'll all chat with you for like forty five minutes, so it's slower and it's like more like gentle and what know you guys my hand to the Heavens, this shit worked on it for twenty five minutes and I still looks like a dalmatian and I was like leave it leave it That's what it ensures. I know it looks there's literally patchy. That's great! I I hope this is a. This is a look I was going for. I don't we're just going to leave. This is torture just leave it, let it be
if the let it be exactly as it is. So that's what you have to look forward to when you get your wax. The question is: do you wax your bike or not? That's a question, not the question, because they can because you've never gotten one before they can and do your but which is maybe possibly the most more, finding a terrible thing. and because, in order to get your, but you gotta get on your hands and knees jack the level out there, sue. I doubt
I never reactivate stories either you like and and lawyer, this is the harassment I've endured and yeah. They make you get on your hands in a nice, but weirdly can you know, do confirm this. I don't even know why I'm telling the story the but doesn't hurt anyone. No just me. Okay, I've had it done, it doesn't hurt, it really doesn't, but also I don't why. Why do we need to do that? We do, and maybe you do maybe there's a maybe you that makes feel. I don't know judgment you wanna wax your bite. You wax your, but I don't need it though, and just trying to cover cover with the bathing suit. That's what I'm looking for. One of the biggest issues with a bikini wax jack I forgot to mention this part is very important. Is that you have to grow it out in order to wax it. It's like nineteen, seventy two, it just is I'm going to like go bernard.
While later cause it all works. If you know what I'm saying, but that's the only way cause otherwise you're going to wax like a little bit and then two days later, it's going to be like, but then you know you gotta, do something cause shaving is like an atrocity you're going to get all the ingrown hairs. It's going to be back in two days. Why no just grow it out until you look like you know, whatever Gloria Steinem was rocking and then have it ripped or would you guys think about laser the laser heroin
well it's something I've thought about for a while, but I have a number I'm a weenie, but remember I'm not going to be. We need this year. Maybe I need to do laser, but it you said it hurt though, but it's quick have you had a wax before I'm just worried, it's going to feel like I'm getting burned or something she's like the videos where it's stressful When your aim is rising to the top, every step counts step.

I'm terrified of someone actually getting issues that says like free, the cubes, don't don't do it. I mean quality of the content of this shell. I did
an episode whenever this episode was where I was talking about how he couldn't hear in restaurants, anymore and people were like. Yes, thank you like recognise for the older crowd, who can't hear, and now I'm wondering like what are the other things that happen when you get older, that didn't happen when you are like what are the things you guys comment below and please cause it'd be so funny to talk about these on an upcoming episode, but like what are the things that you catch yourself doing, that you feel like you're.

I haven't met their kid, but Jackson was with them. So we're a group text him. they were like. Oh here's, a group texts like keep everyone updated on, what's happening and cause I'm lame. I sent a gif of Amy Poehler as the mom from mean girls, saying, like, oh god, love. You keep me and then realize, like there's. No telling what these like you, kinnock who sends a gift to someone. They don't know you I don't know

Yeah it's guess, but anyway I sent it and then there was no response and I was like well guess we can't be friends, If I send a given, you know, respond with a give. That's that's the answer. We did have an episode where someone said: how do you make great close relationship as adults? one way I'm going to send you this. Did you catch my humor? Do you get this joke cause? If not? Oh the ancestors are upset with that. Well, it's just cause the doors open
as all the windows open and sweat slamming, but I'm not. This is one hundred per cent me when something like that happens in my house. I'm like what did I just say that was upsetting to my spirit guides and then sometimes I'm like. Oh Jesus was the door closing cause of the wind and sometimes I'm like you're right.

Hi this is rachel, and this is a quick word on research. Now. You can't see me, but when I'm saying researching, I am in fact using air quotes and researching in this instance means anything that you do
to avoid having to actually do anything. Ok, just just hang with me for a second. I went to a conference recently it's one of my first. ways to learn a new skill or set of take a deep dive in You a new area, and I went to this conference kind of law everything I could about Bobby that I currently have and Just so you know this is how I learned to write books, how we learned about personal development. I went to conferences about personal development at how we learned about business. I could keep filling you in here. It's a really active way. I have learned what I've learned is to go to conferences, to read books to watch documentaries. tubes and podcast. I immersed myself in all of the information that I can find for how to do a thing. Some at this conference That's a pretty small group of people like two hundred people in this seminar and I'm getting out so just so, you know
seminar conference workshop Your girls not hiding out the back the room, she is front row. She got her. No pat, I am ready, I'm taking note. I am feverish. I am here for the information I want to glean as much information in the time that I have, because I have for kids and a full time job. It's like I have a ton of extra time laying round to go to conferences. So if I'm gonna be here from a take this time away from an get on apply, and then you better believe I am going to absorb as much as I possibly can. Out of this conversation So have a fantastic time. I'm really enjoying myself, I'm learning a ton, and I started talking to a few different people. So at lunch I talk to some people and why waiting for a speakers site just kind of chatting up whose there, whose also learning in the same way, I am- and I find- and a reoccurring theme
I assume that everybody whose here cause is a pretty introductory thing. I should everybody whose here is also learning starting beginning. The same way that I am an they talk to people sort of consensus is like oh yeah, they're, saying the same stuff. They always say the teachers are, I'm saying the same thing they always say, and unlike what do you mean like when we had our the last conference, the same person spoken. They said this thing and then I'm also I've seen them on this, and they said this thing and so and so on. said that and there's a re emerging theme they're all kind of sand, the for three or four things that are the same right. You want to this is like. If I go back to when I was trying to be an author author say the same thing, though again sit in the chair right, the words it's hard, it sucks. You have to do it that so like they all are saying. The same thing they're, giving the same advice at the conference amount though I gather all saying the same thing and my mind explodes, and
it's me realise that I need to come to you guys and have this conversation I dont know than anybody at that conference is gonna, listen to this podcast episode, but you are so if you are a creative, if you are or someone who wants to, achieve any thing in life, if your work on a project even workin, on project for a long time and you're not making traction here is what I need you to get from me today.
