Transcript
00:00We talk about endorphins, right? From working out. So I imagine you argue less, you talk more,
00:07like talk about it. How does it? It's like, Hey, we do martial arts. And I always say
00:12like with martial arts, it's like, uh, like throwing a tantrum every day. Like you're
00:16hitting and punching and whatever it's cathartic, right? So how are you going to be all stressed
00:20out if you just kick and punch and get all of that stuff? Yeah. People never believe us,
00:25but I got to put this out there. No one ever believes this. We never argue. Like we never
00:30argue. No, we don't. No, we don't. You know what? You disagree. That's what I say. We don't argue
00:37because it's just very rare because, um, and it could be, you know, we just, we get along really
00:42well. We're best friends. We, it's really, I think we've had four, somewhat five disagreements
00:50all the time we've been together. And it's like 20 minute type things.
00:53But, um, it's, it's, that's unusual. I think, but that the philosophy that we, we, there's no ego
01:02here. That's the, that, that's the thing that lends to that. Cause I, I love being wrong. Cause
01:07then I learned something, you know, we, we always say you hear the term, like you got two ears and
01:13one mouth, you know, so use those, you know, uh, no matter who you disagree with, they're going to have
01:20some modicum of truth to what they're arguing about. If you can listen to that part and you can
01:26empathize, you know, it's going to go a long way. You, you know, that you can prove that that person
01:31that you hear them. So, you know, a lot of people miss each other, just, they mean well, but you know,
01:37but when you, your best, when your best friends, you don't tend to, um, kind of judge your best friend,
01:44even if they have flaws the same way you do your spouse, you know, you just kind of give
01:49that forgiveness, but you need to give that for your spouse as well. You know,
01:53I love this. Cause if you think about, okay, you're getting more time together,
01:56right. And you're working on your endorphins and your energy levels. So you're able to like
02:01fight less, be less tired, less cranky, have more meaningful time together. But let's also talk
02:06about the longevity you get as partners with you both being your healthiest, you get more time
02:13together in love. You get to live longer. Right. So just talk about like the benefits you all have
02:19seen with your own bodies and just yourself in terms of just living and being committed to living well.
02:25Yeah. I mean, I I'm, I'll be 46 next year. I don't believe you. I need ID.
02:31Yeah. I mean, but I think it has a lot to do with the way I take care of myself. My, you know,
02:35not just the fitness, but my, my diet, you know, it's important. We have kids. We want to be there
02:40for them. We want to stay healthy. We want to be able to take care of them and do things with
02:44them as long as we possibly can. Yeah. So that's important to both of us and your kids. I mean,
02:48they're, they're more important than you.
