0:00.0	Hey, welcome to the Mentally Chill podcast. I'm your host, Kristen Lee Carney. And the reason I said
0:10.0	Lee is because I have my cousin on today's show whose name is Christy Lee, L-E-I-G-H, just like mine.
0:17.2	And here's what's weird. Christy and I didn't know each other existed until about a month ago.
0:23.7	And we grew up about a half hour or 20 minutes away from each other. And we are so alike.
0:28.5	It's like we're soul sisters, like soul cousins, but like soul sisters. When we met, it was like love
0:34.0	at first sight. She loves Seinfeld. She was funny. I love Seinfeld. Apparently I'm
0:38.9	funny. And we immediately hit it off. So of course, we went on a romantic date. The other night,
0:43.9	we went out to dinner. When we were there, it got real heavy. She started telling me about an abusive
0:48.7	relationship she was in. Turns out she wasn't in just one. She was in two. And she's on today's show to talk all about it and why she's so positive about it. And I actually taped a show with this girl named Jenna Brister recently about her abusive husband. But I lost it. Not it like crazy. I lost the actual episode on my SD card. I thought I had gotten everything off. Apparently I didn't.
1:11.9	And when I was talking to Christy, I realized this is a conversation that still needs to happen.
1:17.0	And Christy is so strong about it, but she's also funny. And I love that because I think the way
1:22.7	you make things less dark is to be funny about them, just like you'd be funny about anything else.
1:28.5	So that's what we do on today's show. And before we get to it, just want to let you know about
1:32.7	that movie night that's coming up on Patreon. October 26th, we're watching a scary movie for
1:37.7	Halloween. Still haven't picked the movie yet, but I got the times backwards. I keep doing that.
1:43.7	In my mind, for some reason, I'm still in California.
1:45.8	I don't feel like I am because I'm sitting in darkness and rain, but I said 630 New York time,
1:52.6	930 California time, or I should say Pacific time. But what I meant to say was 930, New York time,
2:00.3	6.30 Pacific time. So if you want to join me for that, it's going to be
2:03.8	super fun. Go to patreon.com slash mentally chill. Throw me a buck, throw me two bucks, threw me 20 bucks,
2:09.0	whatever it is. And you get to watch a movie, but you also get tons of other cool perks. And you get the
2:14.4	satisfaction of knowing. And you're helping me do the show every week.
