Summary
Yes, another guest episode so soon — and this one is a good one. Jaci and Chelsey are joined by Payton Sartain Ross, lifestyle and fashion creator, host of the Note to Self podcast, and curator behind Chez Ross. Fresh off getting married to MLB player Joe Ross, Payton opens up about life as a WAG (and what that even means), navigating the uncertainty that comes with career slumps in professional sports, and adjusting to an entirely new season of life. She also shares thoughts on a possible career pivot of her own, including going back to school, why influencing appealed to her in the first place, and why she’s considering walking away from it altogether. Oh, and that’s What We Said!! (fin)

| 0:00.0 | The following podcast is a dear media production. |
| 0:09.7 | We're so glad to have you, Peyton. |
| 0:11.9 | I was telling Jacey on the way over here, like I cannot believe we've never done an official swap before. |
| 0:17.0 | An official swap. |
| 0:17.5 | I feel like we have. |
| 0:18.6 | Yeah. |
| 0:19.0 | But we haven't. |
| 0:19.7 | So we're excited to chat with you and dive into |
| 0:22.1 | many different topics. We've got lots of questions for you. But first and foremost, we want to, |
| 0:26.7 | we want to bond over Arizona because you're living the Arizona life. How do you like it? How is it |
| 0:31.4 | treating you? It's treating me well so far. I was very nervous because as I told you both, |
| 0:36.4 | the dry weather. The weather thing, |
| 0:38.6 | like, it's like living here where you like you forget how much the weather like really impacts you. Oh, we never forget about the weather here on the Lysiparkness. We're always talking about it. There's always a weather report. It's kind of dry. It's like, it affects your life so much. It does. It does. So Arizona's getting really hot right now. |
| 0:54.4 | Like, I'm from Texas, so I'm used to it. |
| 0:56.7 | But I'm a little nervous. |
| 0:57.9 | Like, I'm from Texas, so I'm used to it. But I'm a little nervous. Like I'm getting to the point where it's been chill, it's been normal. And now I'm like, okay, it's going to be 100 this next week. And 100 Arizona is different than 100 in Texas. Like you're baking in an oven in Arizona. So I've been spending a lot of time inside, |
| 1:11.4 | but as we discussed, like great restaurants and all that stuff. So plenty of places I can enjoy |
| 1:16.4 | being inside. The Arizona lifestyle is very much spent, and especially in the summer, |
| 1:21.9 | spent as little time outside, especially even between your car and the store. It's like, |
| 1:26.7 | you have to park far away from the store. It's miserable. Yes. And then you have to, like, I didn't know in other states, it wasn't really a thing to not have the shades on your car. Like in Arizona, everyone has the shades on your car because, like on the windshield, because otherwise your car is literally, like cooking in aluminum foil. Yes. I've always thought that was very dramatic. And Joe and I were like, we actually do need to invest in some of those, for sure. Seat belt will burn you and give you an actual burn. Yes. Like you're truly baking in an oven. Yeah, if you have leather seats, sienara. Yeah. Your legs are wearing shorts, which you most likely are in Arizona. It's bad. It's crazy. One of my favorite feelings, though, I will say, is when it's nighttime, maybe not in the heat, heat of the summer in Arizona, but like when it's kind of verging into summer or we're exiting summer, my favorite feeling, going to a restaurant and it's like so cold. The AC is so cold. |
| 2:18.6 | You walk in and blasts you. Yes, you walk in and it blasts you. You have the best meal. You leave. And the heat, like, feels actually so good when you're leaving because it was like freezing in the restaurant. That's like a nostalgic feeling that I can't really explain. But we have that in Texas, too. Like, if you, you are like, I don't know, we do sports outside. That's like my whole |
| 2:36.7 | summer was always sports. So, like, it's, really explained but we have that in texas too like if you you are like i don't know we do sports |
