Hi guys, good afternoon. Welcome to the third episode of the second season of Cat on the Loose.

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 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 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.
