Summary
This week on Pretty Basic, it’s just you and Remi — and she’s answering it all. From updates on her PCOS journey and pregnancy timeline with Cal, to how marriage has shifted her life and even the secrets she’s been keeping, nothing’s off the table.
She opens up about self-esteem before and after her weight loss, whether she’d ever quit her vlog channel, and what’s next in her brand refresh. Plus: wedding regrets (and her perfume pick), short-term goals, decompressing rituals, her hair extension adventures, and yes… her thoughts on ZALISHA.
If you’ve ever wondered about the future of Cooking with Remi, whether she’d vlog her kids, or if a book tour might be in the cards, this is the episode you’ll want to sit down with a snack and get comfy for.

| 0:00.0 | I am here to bring you a solo episode. We're going to do a Q&A today. Ever had a moment |
| 0:06.5 | where you wanted to quit YouTube and what kept you going? No. Blog cameras attached at my hip at all |
| 0:12.8 | times. PCS journey update. Not pregnant yet. I feel like I just have to keep saying I'm not |
| 0:16.7 | pregnant. I'm not pregnant. Are you still a Zelisha shipper? Do they have amazing chemistry? |
| 0:22.7 | Yes. I'm down for whatever my b-ha wants. If she wants to, then yes. And if she doesn't, then I will never speak to. |
| 0:28.1 | I'm not. I'm just kidding. The following podcast is a Dear Media production. |
| 0:46.6 | Pretty basic. Hi, everybody. Welcome back to Pretty Basic. Hi everybody. Welcome back to Pretty Basic. I am Remy Parsons and I am here to bring you a solo episode. I don't do these very frequently. I remember the first time I did a solo episode. I |
| 0:52.3 | recorded for, I think it was like three and a half hours because |
| 0:55.3 | I just could not get my words out. I didn't know what to say. I was profusely sweating. |
| 1:00.4 | I was so nervous. And then I remember I got the edit back and it was actually 30 minutes. And I was |
| 1:05.7 | gagged that I spoke for that long and nothing came out. So I am here to bring you a solo episode. I know |

| 1:18.8 | I will be honest. I am so tired right now and my brain is not working because this morning I |
| 1:26.9 | officially announced my cookbook, which I know I talked about |
| 1:30.0 | in a recent episode of Pretty Basic with Cal. And this morning, as I'm recording this was the day |
| 1:34.7 | that we released it or announced the pre-order. If you guys haven't checked it out already, |
| 1:38.5 | if you haven't ordered the book and you're wanting to order it, feel free to do so. The link |
| 1:42.7 | will be in the description box. I wrote my first cookbook ever and it is available for pre-order and I could not sleep last night, |
| 1:50.2 | you guys. I was tossing and turning. I was so anxious and so nervous. I have this anxiety and |
| 1:58.0 | nervousness and stress before literally any launch ever in my life. But specifically |
| 2:03.6 | this one, I think was the most nerve-wracking because it has been such a long process. As I told |
| 2:09.7 | you guys, it's been two years that I've been working on this. And also, this book just means so |
