Lessons from Our 30s | #|TheBaldandTheBeautiful That Chick Angel TV

[@jmichelle8192]

No one is even phased anymore when kev takes his shirt off 😂😂 it’s so normal now 😂😂

[@jennaharris6053]

I’m phased. Me and Marcus. Lol.

[@taiharris5236]

We all just like "Uh, here he go" 😳🙄😂

Things that I've learned in my 30's: 1. (In the dating scene) No one can play you, you can only play yourself. 2.Your opinion is valuable, even if other people don't think so. 3. You are not too old to do things you like to do. 4. You cannot be friends with someone with a trifling spouse.

[@BlaqueRose23]

That, that, that AND THAT! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@Bkrunz]

#4 is a Word!!!!

[@gontsetsipa4680]

Amen to #4

[@brangeeellis3083]

#4...childdddd, let me add people that have children that are unruly and might need a swift kick in the...!

[@Wrappedinhisglory]

Wow. I'll be sure to keep #4 in mind

[@cliffordbunton8788]

Things I've learned in my 30s: 1.) Trust your instincts. Some people aren't good for you no matter how long you may have known them, family included. Fighting yourself trying to work things out with people who don't matter is not good for you. 2.) Accepting that I needed help for my mental state and that seeking therapy is not a sign of weakness, but actually it's a sign of strength. 3.) Being alone is not as bad as society has taught us it is. 4.) Some things are just not for you and that is perfectly okay.

[@pockahantiss]

I’m now 41, and the things I’ve learned in my 30’s were: Move at your OWN pace Challenge yourself Take care of your health Increase your wealth Pray Count your blessings, cut your losses Energies are real!

[@mel.alisha2992]

I’m 33 but my recent lesson is to remain in my happiness and let others find their own!

[@jellygurl27]

Yes same!!! I am 33 too.

[@PRTEEGRL]

And let others find their own!!!! A WHOLE WORD!! I receive that Sis!!

[@PRTEEGRL]

What I’m learning in my 30s: Silence is golden. Sometimes it’s MUCH better to stay quiet and observe rather than speaking everything on your mind. My grandma would always say, “be quiet and watch.”

[@brangeeellis3083]

...your grandmother is/was a wise woman

[@giiemm2633]

Angel I caught that jewel you dropped ! “Being a perpetual student, eventually all that training adds up to something “ 💎💎💎

[@shontasy_co8472]

I watched this episode...the weekend before I was scheduled to have an interview for a major promotion that I was talking myself out of. I dont have enough experience, they dont want me. Then when Angel dropped that 💎. It gave me the push I needed to go on the interview. I went through all this training and got all of this education....for what? To be useless?

It’s interesting that we as Christians are told about having a "spirit of discernment" but then are forced out of trusting our gut in certain situations and dealing with certain people just to not cause a fuss or make others uncomfortable. That can be dangerous… part of why so many things get swept under the rug I think 🤔

[@Passion84GodAlways]

SO sad, SO TRUE!

Yea the whole idea contradicts itself

What I learned… Had I listened to my Mom when she told me to put at least 20$ aside per paycheck in an effort to build a savings, I would not have struggled financially, for so many years.

[@Sabrina.682]

I wish I could go back to 17 when I got my first job and listened to every word my mother told me about savings and finances. Now I'm trying to dig myself out.

[@brangeeellis3083]

I'm 47 so I have been out of my 30s for a "minute" but what I learned then and is STILL learning now is: Protect your peace... When people are willing to walk out of your life, help them find their comfy shoes and turn your location off!!

Marcus was in his bag this episode with the analogies , self awareness and revelations! I sincerely appreciated his contribution. I hear the confidence and wisdom. Everyone did phenomenal. Such a confirming conversation for my place in life right now.

[@srrentro]

I NEEDED this today. Side note: I have been noticing how sharp/smart Cam is. As a cool nerd (self proclaimed), I really enjoy hearing his interjections!

[@cierrashewrites]

I laughed entirely too hard at this lol and as a woman halfway through her 28th year of life I learned so much from it. The lesson I'm currently learning is that it's okay to walk away from people that don't make you feel good no matter how long you've been allowing the negative behavior. Thank you guys!

[@adjubidarko691]

Angel's story about getting into Grad School was hilarious!!!

[@bryvmode]

Listen if your friends don't lift you..stretch you..get rid of them. This is so good. Thanks for sharing

[@veecee5805]

I love how Liss really agrees with Kev’s brilliance. And so sincere. And yet not afraid to call him out. 🥰

[@melissa8580]

Angels story about the envelope and anthrax is really how Crafts and Cocktails began 😂🤣😂. How you doing all that arts and crafts to make a fake envelope and it actually work! 🤣🤣🤣 the pre-internet/dawn of the internet days were truly the best time to be alive!

[@TXBornNBred]

I'm 36. I'm learning alot about my negative traits, unlearning bad habits and replacing them with good ones. Also I'm a season where my friendships look different. Either friends have become associates or we don't talk as much or we're more honest with each other. Also re: single and dating. I'm not interested in dating someone I don't really like just to avoid being alone. Still figuring out my career. I don't want to work for a corporation anymore.

Just saying some folks 9-5 is their dream and that's okay. Additionally, not everyone is called to be a CEO and/or entrepreneur and that's okay.

I only wish that I could go back 30 years and have you most inspiring people as friends. I honestly admire you all so very much for your ambition and drive. It seems the only thing I'm passionate about are long naps. Not because I'm lazy. I'm an intelligent and talented woman without a dream. Yes, that rare human being with no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. I love listening to you all so VERY much. I'm like a proud auntie when I watch/listen to you. I

Lol, them spicy noodles were giving the fellas the blues, but the gems were dropped! Kev's "why he really got fired & Angel's grad school delay" stories were hilarious! "Follow it thru my boy....sometimes you gotta just follow the lie all the way through" hahahaha!! This was hilarious..

[@serendipiti126]

I liked the conversation around careers, I think whether you are self-employed or work for a corporation, there has to to a level of fulfillment....I was encouraged years ago to create a personal mission statement for my life (career included) which has allowed me to always ensure I am contributing to society in a way that creates impact and allows me to be completely satisfied 💕

[@ivy.interlude]

I love that. May ask what your mission statement is?

[@fdoctor79]

What I learned is for the sake of my peace and sanity not everyone will have access to my life. I learned that I am not for everyone and everyone is not for me and that's okay. I am called to love you not to like you. And just like "Yes" is an affirmation so is "No". Tfs

Not me getting a kev spectrum commercial on a thatchickangel episode !! Ain’t god good

[@makeupmomentsmaria]

Great conversation. I am well pasted my 30s and have learned alot during the decades. What I see in each of you guys is greatness. Melissa: It is clear Melissa isn't a social media girl. But I wonder what is it about social media she doesnt like. However she can still be a powerhouse in any room she occupies because she is intelligent, thoughtful, and just a breath of fresh air. Marcus can do big things if he is allowed the space to be himself because is talented, skilled and funny. Kevin is definitely the Executioner. He gets stuff done and that is a great quality to have. Still, sometimes you can be busy executing all of your ideas and not realizing you are leaving a ton of destruction on the road behind you (Who is gonna clean that up?!). Patience. Angel is phenomenal and I agree she is THAT girl. I want to see her on big stages and screens because she is so talented as an actress, comedian, mother and overall woman. It's good to realize that while you can do ALL of the things, you can't DO all of the things with just the two hands you have. Finding balance is hard sometimes.

[@lisasmilez]

The 1st 20 mins is just hilarious to me😂😂😂 it’s a lot going on. Kev shirt off😂😂😂😂😂

[@latricecasson1569]

I miss these! I mean I love MAFS but these my fav!

[@RoRoGlamDivaDoll]

So far I'm 3 years into 30, I've learned 3 different things 1. Trust yourself - you'll never steer yourself wrong. 2. Accountability - you are an active participant in life, nothing just happens even doing nothing is a choice. 3. Therapy - I need it to grow and learn more about myself. Facing yourself.

[@knatarshaallen3280]

I wish Angel was still selling that jewelry. That ring she is describing sounds wonderful 💕

[@a.whychild6591]

Ohhhhh, Liss you just put concise words to my experience, 4:44. I say that I grew up in a household culture that promoted “when I say jump, you say how high”. That environment wasn’t great for encouraging trust in my own perspective. My personality operates best when believing in itself and that was actively smoked out as a child before age 9. My mom used to tell me that guiding myself would get me in trouble after I’d stepped off course from what she said and I got burned. She was saying I told you to listen, but I heard “my thoughts are dangerous for me” and that my thoughts are incorrect.

[@ShaqJordan]

Y’all sweating internally and externally made this episode even more funny. But I was cringing when Kev talked about forging sigs. Lol
