Speaker 1 Hi guys, good afternoon. Welcome to the third episode of the second season of Cat on the Loose.
I am super excited today because, for the first time, I'm going to be doing a bilingual episode.

Speaker 1 I'm here with our guest, Silu.

Speaker 1 She's an author of a book that I love, Diario de la Ex Gordita. She's Brazilian, but she lives here in the United States.
So, we decided we are going to do the interview bilingual.

Speaker 1 I'm going to ask her the questions in Portuguese. She's gonna speak Portuguese and Spanish, which is really great since we have such a huge Latin community here in Miami.
We decided to do it that way.

Speaker 1 And then, for you guys that don't understand what we're saying, I'm gonna post the translations right after.

Speaker 1 we have forces for

Speaker 1 us?

Speaker 2 I describe a library, which is a very

Speaker 2 good thing, and

Speaker 2 for a time, it is

Speaker 2 incredible because they don't,

Speaker 2 because I will try to do this. Because

Speaker 2 we

Speaker 2 are,

Speaker 2 I feel like, the way that they are fast.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 here, as people

Speaker 2 are

Speaker 2 pod in concern

Speaker 2 for the problem,

Speaker 2 what

Speaker 2 geos

Speaker 2 to make.

Speaker 1 She's saying that the most important thing is how you face the problems. Maís very vegas,

Speaker 1 very valuable, not a world,

Speaker 1 So, we sport

Speaker 1 in case,

Speaker 1 or

Speaker 1 intelligent, the

Speaker 1 mind, but

Speaker 1 combined for a concern:

Speaker 1 and you can firm,

Speaker 1 I mega sounds

Speaker 1 videos of fitness. By the way, you guys should follow her because her fitness videos are insane.

Speaker 1 What I first passed, amigo, But

Speaker 1 completely very simple, as

Speaker 1 people who

Speaker 1 are

Speaker 2 first

Speaker 2 identified.

Speaker 2 Because I think very

Speaker 2 much, very

Speaker 2 well, very

Speaker 2 fitness, but it is oppressive.

Speaker 1 Verda.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 here you are,

Speaker 2 here is the champion. If it is not

Speaker 2 because

Speaker 2 you have very

Speaker 2 much

Speaker 2 today, I think I

Speaker 2 live in people

Speaker 2 for

Speaker 2 you. And because

Speaker 2 people

Speaker 2 are incident and

Speaker 2 when you don't credit

Speaker 2 and when

Speaker 2 take

Speaker 2 what

Speaker 2 you have

Speaker 2 for success, success.

Speaker 2 Because when I say

Speaker 2 the world,

Speaker 2 that the migration is what very happy, I created

Speaker 2 it, I learned my experience, and I don't know if it is,

Speaker 2 So, very

Speaker 2 queer, who don't prepare, who don't know that

Speaker 2 first

Speaker 2 in voice and

Speaker 2 queer than

Speaker 2 you

Speaker 2 don't like.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I love that she said that we should do things for ourselves. The motivation to do anything comes within us, and she's so right.
Agora, vamos a blaron poquite puño porque me gusta fraticar.

Speaker 1 Tuesta casada, no, you she's married, she's happily married. And I'm excited because I don't know if you know that.
You are the first person that I interview

Speaker 1 that were talking about it, like in terms of a relationship. You have a great marriage.

Speaker 1 So, and I explain, although I talked a lot about my bad experiences with men, this is not a man-bashing show. We want everybody to be in love and be happy like you.

Speaker 1 How long? Cunto tienpuesta casada?

Speaker 2 Yo estu es casada, pau comple cuatro avenos de ni caprín.

Speaker 1 Cuatro años. Enton si lo cuanto mión poquito.

Speaker 1 Tell us a little bit about your love story, like super quickly. How did you guys meet?

Speaker 2 And I was a group of

Speaker 2 groups, and there

Speaker 2 all comes to converse, and I came to aquí stadiums, and I don't know if it was a power in English. And I fall,

Speaker 2 I'm sorry, I don't speak English.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 2 he said

Speaker 2 that.

Speaker 2 I have my translator.

Speaker 1 That's so sweet.

Speaker 1 Which goes to show that you can be from different cultures. And I think where there is love and there is interest, you manage.

Speaker 1 He le llipaís.

Speaker 2 I do not see

Speaker 2 that

Speaker 2 all.

Speaker 2 We are like,

Speaker 2 every

Speaker 2 change,

Speaker 2 we are talking like a migrant, and everything

Speaker 2 is a

Speaker 2 little bit more

Speaker 2 instinctive,

Speaker 2 and I came,

Speaker 2 it is fast,

Speaker 2 but

Speaker 2 I put

Speaker 1 Desperation is not a good idea,

Speaker 1 desperation, desperate.

Speaker 2 You see,

Speaker 2 you have to

Speaker 2 revise it. You know, that's what I'm saying, you know, who have

Speaker 2 told you.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 there are things

Speaker 2 that you

Speaker 2 have in the person,

Speaker 2 that you can see the

Speaker 1 Yeah, that's a horrible idea.

Speaker 1 Don't beg for love, Elata Flando.

Speaker 1 In my case, it took a huge break from dating because I had some really bad experiences last year.

Speaker 1 Then I fell in love. I haven't even told you guys that story.
And then all of a sudden, he disappeared and ghosted me because he didn't accept my work. So now I'm like you.

Speaker 1 I decided sometimes it's better to take a break than to just be with the wrong person, the wrong person, the wrong person.

Speaker 1 And she's saying exactly that. You can't just, because you're desperate, just go out with anybody and accept any behavior.
So that's really beautiful that you're saying that.

Speaker 1 Because first of all,

Speaker 1 I want you to desperately,

Speaker 1 especially

Speaker 2 if you're a non-care,

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 here, a question that I think is concerned, a lot of

Speaker 2 times,

Speaker 2 I

Speaker 2 started, I

Speaker 2 feel, I think,

Speaker 2 and you

Speaker 2 all

Speaker 2 problem, that is

Speaker 2 problematic,

Speaker 2 a problem that

Speaker 2 is

Speaker 2 ridiculous to you.

Speaker 2 It is a problem that is mulery, like a

Speaker 2 little

Speaker 2 scholars who

Speaker 2 are

Speaker 2 not without how

Speaker 2 we

Speaker 2 pass,

Speaker 2 but

Speaker 2 very good.

Speaker 2 So that domains, the state is always bishops, all extragalds,

Speaker 2 but they

Speaker 2 are more of

Speaker 2 life, that they

Speaker 2 were.

Speaker 2 And I said, no, it is not,

Speaker 2 he said,

Speaker 2 there they are,

Speaker 2 he said,

Speaker 2 all

Speaker 2 myself. When you

Speaker 2 are,

Speaker 2 when you

Speaker 2 procure me,

Speaker 2 when you speak, when

Speaker 2 I

Speaker 2 say, that I

Speaker 2 carry

Speaker 2 other

Speaker 2 people,

Speaker 2 it is another time, also.

Speaker 2 I want to cast

Speaker 2 more

Speaker 2 than

Speaker 2 one

Speaker 2 kilometer.

Speaker 1 Because you are very certain. And when you are saying, the vague

Speaker 1 of Jate.

Speaker 1 One

Speaker 1 is super important.

Speaker 1 That follows the amigos. I have amigos,

Speaker 1 caring date, date, date, date, date.

Speaker 1 I'm here, I'm quiet, I'm doing my work. And if one day somebody's gonna find me and like me, I think they should like me the way I am.
Yo, someday very good

Speaker 1 out there, that

Speaker 1 a lot of force projects.

Speaker 2 is very

Speaker 2 much that I

Speaker 2 could

Speaker 2 do. And why

Speaker 2 all

Speaker 2 very

Speaker 2 much that

Speaker 2 you have to do? Thank you.

Speaker 1 I introduced my expertise of relationship to

Speaker 1 look at yourself.

Speaker 1 If all all the relationships are not working, you have a pattern,

Speaker 1 you will try to misma cuisa, and you break this pattern of repentance that

Speaker 2 very difficult because

Speaker 2 imagine the moment in their destination

Speaker 2 that you

Speaker 2 see that you

Speaker 2 imagine

Speaker 2 the

Speaker 2 paddle

Speaker 2 pad, but the practice for pray the most

Speaker 2 for me.

Speaker 2 This

Speaker 2 is not because the job,

Speaker 2 that they understand,

Speaker 2 that they don't have instability,

Speaker 2 it is very nice,

Speaker 2 many people, many

Speaker 2 people who are collecting so that they don't consume that because it is not important. So, how do you

Speaker 2 contrage other millions of people to

Speaker 2 allow? Because I don't

Speaker 1 Asu is targeting

Speaker 1 many

Speaker 1 pieces. I need to bring her back because her story is so amazing.
And

Speaker 1 relationships like my jovial relationship, it's fantastic because it shows when there is love, there is no prejudice, there is no barriers, there is no culture, there is no nothing.

Speaker 1 And I think I love letting people know about that. Because very

Speaker 1 well, like my job, nothing contrary,

Speaker 1 and you have

Speaker 2 important

Speaker 1 or whole aspects of

Speaker 1 our children, including

Speaker 1 and other things that

Speaker 1 I pass.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 I don't know if the

Speaker 1 next gourd

Speaker 1 and speak,

Speaker 1 you know,

Speaker 1 of the people, I do speak, the mirror diet.

Speaker 1 And I also

Speaker 1 live inclusive for you, that

Speaker 1 what transformation comes from

Speaker 1 to

Speaker 1 be able to do it.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 if you

Speaker 1 look like this,

Speaker 1 for the people who are motivation,

Speaker 1 encouragement.

Speaker 2 I live a nina

Speaker 2 out of time,

Speaker 2 I don't have

Speaker 2 a

Speaker 2 paranoid, I would say,

Speaker 2 I am not very

Speaker 2 interested in the verdict.

Speaker 2 I consider

Speaker 2 everything

Speaker 2 that you have in life, all the content that you

Speaker 2 So, everybody,

Speaker 2 the data of the people can

Speaker 2 be that I live

Speaker 2 in my children. It is very difficult.
It is all very difficult because today,

Speaker 2 the time that you have

Speaker 2 social, you are working, you are

Speaker 2 all, and so live in automatic life. And that is not with your reaction, with your

Speaker 2 digital,

Speaker 2 this is not,

Speaker 2 this is not

Speaker 2 very,

Speaker 2 so that you mirror

Speaker 2 this and

Speaker 2 this moment, I mirror,

Speaker 2 and this,

Speaker 2 I have

Speaker 2 to change

Speaker 2 my

Speaker 2 life because it can be peopled in my pocket, in the

Speaker 2 day,

Speaker 2 you know, that

Speaker 2 you

Speaker 2 disparate my

Speaker 2 family, and because we

Speaker 2 are

Speaker 2 not

Speaker 2 afraid of this, a timetro, a million

Speaker 2 tube,

Speaker 2 that

Speaker 2 it laid with all vegetables, and that

Speaker 2 of transformation

Speaker 2 to all your vida, sir for all the things that you want to do in the work of relationship because a woman can

Speaker 2 women

Speaker 2 that have

Speaker 2 worked, he has their case, he has their

Speaker 2 relationship perfectly, because when

Speaker 2 all

Speaker 2 that proposed,

Speaker 2 like relationships that

Speaker 2 And that

Speaker 2 history of the nineteen states

Speaker 2 the sum of everything that is today.

Speaker 2 I have to procure that in your district
