She almost DIED...?! - Podcast #18

[@Running4lyfe1997]

Hey Jen, glad you saw my comment on the other video. Ways of treating do include a CPAP machine (some people love it, some hate it) and for the people that don’t want a machine, they make oral appliances (think of it like a night guard) that put your jaw in a more advantageous position so that your tongue is less likely to fall back and occlude your airway. Its something to look into.. Also another thing to note that we as dentists are responsible for screening for signs and symptoms of OSA and usually refer to a sleep specialist for a sleep study (PSG- polysomnogram) which is the gold standard for diagnosing the condition then we can make those OSA appliances if you’d prefer it over a machine. I’m available if you have any questions!

[@lauraxxx6345]

brandon your voice is insanely attractive!! whoever said that does not know what they’re talking about

[@mitievep.1924]

It really is! I listen to these because of him and Claudia. I find them both to be pretty mature (to some degree lol) and outspoken simultaneously. People are weird for questioning how someone expresses themselves

[@amyy0025]

Brandon is handsome and hot but his voice isn’t that attractive 😅

[@SquillyWonka]

Brandon ur gyat is insanely attractive

[@bbghoul_x]

I woke up not being able to breathe too before and I remember thinking I was gonna die. I also have asthma, smoke occasionally, had covid 3x (effed up my lungs), and I sleep with my mouth open . Lol and when this happened to me I was laying on my back. And each time I had sleep paralysis I was on my back too.

[@kenziii5973]

😂😂😂😂

[@mitievep.1924]

Nahhh whoever’s coming for Brandon’s voice or shorts is weird. Let ppl live!

[@user-pz6rc4pg6l]

The first reason i followed brandon and his family was after i came across a video where he was laughing, his laugh is very attractive and contagious

[@Bri-ry2ot]

I'm pretty sure a lot of the girlys in the fan base are following them because of the random hot brother features way back haha

[@blushfaerie]

Brandons empathy for people when talking about working out is so refreshing. Like understanding not everyone stays looking like a model and life getting in the way. I could see dakota looking a bit hurt at jenns comment about gaining weight and how she automatically associated it as a bad thing.

[@Sarah-o7r6s]

Dakota seems so chill. I can see how she calms Jen. She seems to get along with everyone, makes me happy for Jen!

[@dilber.1708]

Kennedy looks beautiful than ever

[@bellabalogh4750]

Yessss!!!! This darker shade of red looks insanely good on her

[@andrealarcila]

I knew someone whose father passed away because he swallowed his tongue in his sleep . Devastated the family. You should talk to your dr

[@klarafall6379]

I am a woman and Brandon, I find your voice one of the most attractive things. Not to mention your contagious laughter. Jesse's follower is obviously jealous or something... He has no clue...

[@chupachuuups706]

The comments are paused on the latest episode with Papa Walsh & Jesse, lmaoooo

[@stephaniecobian725]

There’s a lot of edgy teens on here. I’m not surprised because I saw some of the comments before they were paused and they were unnecessarily critical.

[@aishsukii]

I was a sleep technologist in a hospital before. It’s definitely OSA. Getting a sleep study would be good! Since the dr would be able to determine what’s causing your apnea. Typically seen in overweight people but those that are slim can have it too due to the lack of airflow when you’re sleeping since the muscle collapse and relaxes. Usually you can get reconstructive surgery for the nasal to widen your airway through your nose or to live with the apnoea machine which is a hassle imo. But if sleeping on your side works, stick with that! Hope this was helpful 🥹

[@cathyymaroneyy7732]

i really enjoy the fitness talk and how it correlates with longevity/over health. can't wait for brandons app

[@iris-xo]

people have no control over something like their voice and it's disgusting to try and talk negatively or insult someone that way... like it can create unnecessary insecurities, it's just people projecting cuz they're miserable. it's like genuinely making fun of someone's laugh, something that means they're happy, whatever and trying to put them down over it just weird behaviorrr

[@nicolew2100]

i don’t usually comment but i love working out and i’m super excited for brandon’s app to come out. making it free is allowing a lot more people to access it and his dedication towards the app is super admirable. i can’t wait to see what its like, thank you :)

[@alexare6655]

Nah you don't work out.

[@hibye4987]

when i saw dakota i screamed! love her & mama jen

[@ana_beatrizcamargo]

About Jen's not breathing problem, I heard you can go to a really good speach therapist and fix that with exercises. That's probably happening because her tongue/throat muscles are weak and idk if she's a mouth breather but she might have deviation of the nasal septum and that can be also fixed but with surgery

[@ktnannon]

Hello, I’m a respiratory therapist. It does sound like obstructive sleep apnea. If you see a doctor they will do an overnight sleep study. Try to sleep on your back during the study so that you can qualify for a CPAP machine. It is dangerous and I really advise prioritizing going to a doctor about it.

[@cindyj8914]

In nursing school now. Sounds like OSA to me too.

[@abiail6641]

Don’t rely on the comments for your diagnosis please go see the Doctor, Jen.

[@chupachuuups706]

Mewing can fix that

[@ashantiking4595]

I used to work in a neurology and sleep medicine office ( I’m not an Md I was just a receptionist but I learned a lot) and you definitely need to have a sleep study done. They even have tests you can take home depending on if your insurance covers it But you’re right you may need an cpap or apap machine. And it’s a big commitment but you’ll notice a difference and should feel way more well rested!

[@jonathanrocha779]

Now that he mentioned it he does have a zesty voice

[@the.sundew]

brandon is right, multitasking is inneficient. "The authors found that multitasking is actually less efficient because it takes extra time to shift mental gears every time a person switches between tasks." - University of Southern California I think it would be so satisfying if this podcast had a person to look stuff up and randomly fact check 😂

[@bibiancampos12]

Excited for the app☺️

[@Jessica_May1]

Love these episodes so MUCH!!!

[@alondraperez5149]

The best thing that motivates me to go to the gym is just wanting to feel good with my health because if i don't my body hurts

[@PiaOdilaNoelleChurchill]

Hi everyone, I wanted to respond to Jenn’s Sleep Apnea. I think it is psychological and I would recommend her look into the metaphysical cause of Apnea. Here is something that I found: You often felt suppressed in a family that demanded too much of you. Your relationship with your mother may have run hot and cold, leaving you with a cup that is always half full. The attention and love would often leave you confused and uncertain of your self-worth. You may keep yourself small as it provides safety and gets you out of harm's way. If you were raised in an environment where your emotional needs were met with hostile reactions, it may have been difficult to find emotional peace. This resulted in feelings of guilt and shame for expressing your needs. You often deprive yourself of love and support by relying on yourself. You tend to overanalyze your mistakes, which results in more pressure to be perfect. Your mind has programmed you to believe it's safe to explore deeper emotions when you're sleeping or crying, which causes you to drown in your emotions. Denying how you truly feel has kept you safe and sane. You are often not aware of these intense emotions. Suppressing the emotions and trauma serves you well, as you are already tired and depleted. Dealing with emotions just makes you feel even more exhausted. You often get so preoccupied with pleasing others and trying to fit in that you ignore and abandon your needs and goals. You sabotage your personal growth by always focusing on others' needs and putting your needs last. You fear that abandonment and rejection will follow if you speak up, so you suppress sharing opinions. Giving time and support to others is easy, but it can be hard and even challenging for you to receive support. You feel a need to protect yourself. You often have many friends yet still feel alone. You use your sarcastic nature as a façade to protect yourself, often using anger and resentment to keep people at bay. Reflective questions: • Always explore your birth trauma and see the Birth section. • Explore when you were born. Especially during your first breath. How did it feel? How did your lungs feel? Explore any feelings of panic, sense of being overwhelmed, or feeling out of control. • How well did your mother bond with you? Did you feel blocked or resented by your mother? • Was your mother able to express love in a way that was fulfilling? Which issues between you and your mother feel unresolved? Explore further possibilities. • Explore trauma related to suppression, being made to feel less worthy and insignificant. Who made you feel this way? How did this make you feel? • You don't feel important enough to be loved and have to adjust your standards and self-worth in order to be accepted and loved. How did this make you feel? • Did you feel rejected or abandoned by your mother? Was she emotionally unavailable? How did this affect you? Explore further possibilities. • Did you feel comforted by your mother during the night or whenever you were expressing needs? Explore how your mother comforted you during the nighttime. Explore further possibilities. • Explore trauma that ancestors may have experienced during the nighttime. Such as surviving a war environment. Were you mistreated or threatened during the nighttime? What is the threat? What are you scared of? What was your relationship like with your mother and father? What were your mother and father's relationship like towards each other? If there was a strain, how did it affect you? • At what point did being quiet and holding your breath keep you or make you feel safe? What were (or still are) you hiding from? • During fetal stages, could your blood flow freely around the lung and chest area during the last trimester? If it feels challenging, then explore. How did it make you feel? Where in your life can you identify with similar emotions and situations? • Explore points where you feel hollow, as if there is a void present in the solar plexus during womb stages. If this is relevant, explore how this void keeps you safe. Safe from what? Safe from feeling what? • How does it keep you safe to hold on to anxiety? Some people say it's like a friend. They find comfort in the familiar feelings, even though it's causing them a lot of emotional discomfort. Have you made a familiar bond with the anxiety and trauma? Explore the familiar anxiety and trauma. Explore secondary gain / hidden benefits of it. • We encourage you to talk about the unprocessed grief. Anger and resentment accompany the grief. • Suppressed anger. Who is the anger and resentment directed at? Remind yourself that it is safe to express yourself now. What happened in the past when you grieved or cried? Explore further possibilities. • Some Apnea sufferers have said that it feels like they have an unconscious death wish. Why? What in your life do you need to escape from? This also relates to boundary failures. • Are you tired of your life and circumstances? Perhaps you want a way out. However, you do not want to follow through with actually leaving (passing away). The apnea is a cry for help that the body expresses to you. Where in your life do you need help? You are searching for a heart answer and not a head answer. Heart answers are one-word answers, and they're emotions, not stories. • Explore low self-esteem. Who or what made you feel insignificant, ashamed, or disgusted with yourself? Explore your ability to express personal boundaries without anger. Explore all these points in the development stages as well and differentiate between maternal and fetal stress. • Was your mother told to delay giving birth until doctors arrive? If yes, explore further. Explore panic, stress or frustration. • Did you feel wrapped too tightly in the blanket during the early infant stages? If yes, then how did this make you feel? Explore reactions such as, "I can't breathe, I can't take a deep breath." Suffocation, restrain, or frustrated because of the lack of movement. I hope this helps!!! All the best! I love you guys!

[@Piscesbitcx]

Omg thank you so much for this !!! You are an angel 😇❤️🙌🏻

[@jessbutera]

favorite moment of the day 🤍

[@joleneayers6841]

Jen please go see your dr and get a sleep apnea test. Sounds like you may need. CPAP machine.

[@Beckst]

Kennedy is so nice to Brandon in this episode haha

[@kellymiller9052]

Don't tape your mouth until you have been to an ENT. If you have any obstruction in your nose on top of OSA (sleep apnea) that is double trouble. From a former ENT healthcare worker you should def see ENT and sleep doctor! Good luck

[@iris-xo]

someone said ur shorts are too short??? ummm no

[@taylorlane6289]

Brandon is one the nicest human beings and it’s because he has sisters. Ladies only date men with sisters!

[@amyy0025]

That’s not necessarily true for every guy with sisters

[@Marforshort]

I have sleep apnea too, scariest feeling ever… I used to get it most when I had horrible anxiety and at the time I was also getting lots of sleep paralysis I never knew why but I always felt like I escaped death when I would finally catch my breath

[@carlmela970]

I've experienced the same thing as Jen a few times in my life and it's literally so scary!

[@ashleypate2267]

Same feels like somebody’s choking you and you wake up out of breathe 😭

[@wam6465]

Me too… so scary!!

[@Mrs.Dreadfulbliss]

"When she pops that baby out"... She is pregnant!!! (°o°:) if so I am happy for them! 💙

[@mikaylajean5847]

Hi Jen!(from Québec!!) I have the same thing. It is so scary! It also happens once or twice a year. I will look into OSA. Thank you🫶

[@alondraperez5149]

Brandon is literally a lot smarter when he talks most of the time Kennedy always generalizes everything

[@alexare6655]

Kennedy is dumb

[@blushfaerie]

12:44 tmjd yea. You should care because the grinding can still happen and it does get worse over time

[@nikamichalides8263]

That happened to me also..the scariest shit ever...and now It's impossible for me to fall asleep until I'm lying on my belly face down

[@jeremyud]

Brandon made a video WAY back in the beginning where he talked about high school and being a nerd because he didn't like people assuming that he was a popular Homecoming King type just because he's good-looking. LOL

[@andyaraujo6710]

No body care about his shorts all we care about we want the old brandon back i miss him😔

[@manda6077]

You have a sexy vouce is what a zesty voice means in my opinion so i feel like it could have been a gay man giving you a compliment lmao also kennedy looks fire today❤ so cool to see Dakota on screen

[@alexanhellberg]

haha omg Dakota is so funny I couldn't breath for 5 minutes laughin 😂😂😂😂 Comedian

[@hereyesglowgreen]

I grind my teeth and my boyfriend has sleep apnea so this was wild to watch because I feel like none of my friends can relate haha. Brandon should get a night guard mold done and Jen needs to do a sleep study just in case ! Sleep apnea can get worse so doing a sleep study will help you get the advice you need for it not to get to that point ❤

[@blushfaerie]

1:34 nah kennedy is right alot of the comments have bigots and weird men. Yikes Brandon your voice is nice!!

[@BookNerdQueen]

I wish Kennedy did a ballet class and did an episode of her doing a performing arts Swan lake dancing play.

[@alexanhellberg]

And Brandons voice isn't zesty wtf? It's artistic and pleasant to listen to.

[@ashaoneapascal1972]

WE WANT THE APP

[@kam199x]

You sound like the guy from you! You series

[@chupachuuups706]

Did I say his shorts are too short? I forget. Imma check Edit: I think it was taken down by youtube or the channel. Oh well. It was me though, or at least one of the people who did. Holá, Cait. Is that how you spell your name?

[@vanessahill6413]

hi jen! that happens to me in my sleep too, I have never gone to the doctor for it but I find water helps! I keep water beside me every night and when I wake up choking drinking usually clears it up! my throat always hurts afterwards, did yours hurt after?

[@nicolelaspertini334]

When is the app coming out Brandon?

[@devynjivelee]

Ask Kate about multitasking at work 😂 trust me she would be the ultimate multitasker!

[@imaan2612]

Btw someone saying Brandon’s shorts are short and his voice is zesty doesn’t make them insecure themselves or homophobic. I’m literally a female from uk here and most girls think short shorts look gay on men. And Brandon does seem a bit gay. Nothing wrong w it. The shorts ain’t it tho. Personal preference innit

[@atifaboobecker7752]

Yeah Brandon your doing amazing and haters just shut up

[@suomynonaanonymous]

I am a dr, definitely start with a sleep study.

[@georgecatana9081]

zesty means gay

[@josh44026]

He knows

[@suomynonaanonymous]

I honestly thought he was gay because of his voice when I first watched them. But some straight guys have it for some reason.

[@bbghoul_x]

I never thought that when I first watched his video. 🤷​@@suomynonaanonymous

[@lilo9085]

Im so excited for the app ❤❤❤

[@Crea05]

Leave Brandon’a shorts and voice alone people!! lol Kennedy is so Beautiful!

[@alexismoore4835]

Jen go get a sleep test done!

[@rarutoaru]

I might be having sleep apnea too but it was always like i stopped breathing in my sleep and my body alerted me to wake up cause i didn’t breath, like in my dream suddenly i see myself screaming to me WAKE UP TAKE A BREATH and then i’ll wake up immediately open my eyes wide and take a big deep breath as you usually do when swimming 😂 so basically woken up just to take a breath

[@Sarah-o7r6s]

I said fuck it and did my leg workout while watching this lol. It really doesn’t take much. Especially when you first start. I thought I’d be working out for hours but really I’m shaking and dying after 25 when I started weight training lol ! It really is just doing it.

[@davaking6332]

I can’t wait for the SuperHuman app to be released!

[@lornatw]

Jen, have you ever experienced sleep paralysis? It has a very similar affect especially when asleep on your back or going back to sleep after waking. Can be sh1t scary too. Wondered whether you’ve had this as well before? Hope your apnea goes this sounds horrific ❤ I’ve experienced sleep paralysis during day time whilst lying in heat and also many times at night and after a while I now also get a fully numb arm that’s actually numb even by the morning- the body is mad ❤

[@lornatw]

Just to clarify sleep paralysis is not always not being able to move atall, I personally also cannot breathe but sometimes parts of my body do move, I make a weird noise and I’ve sat up once before but my whole body just feels numb paralysed and detached and panicky at the same time very weird. Again back sleeping and heat or restriction or over sleeping and stress as well trigger mine! I also get head and ear ringing ❤

[@Missigrx]

I have sleep paralysis and it’s scary

[@nathaniamae1317]

Always happy to see new uploads from you guys!!

[@asdfmosin]

Where's the link to the app superhuman?m

[@hiba1083]

short shorts and zesty voice wow

[@jennb1587]

😂

[@ladyoscar4240]

I love Dakota!!

[@sisipisi]

You should wake her up when she stops breathing. The problem is when you’re without someone listening to your breathing ❤

[@DanielleCrocker]

Where can I find this app?

[@awayfrom234........]

Didn't have to turn off comments on the Papa Walsh episode...some cry babies threw tantrum and you went into hiding wtf 😭

[@Buccaneer115]

Here in latin america we are so used to getting beat by our parents. Like my mom had a wooden stick with my name and rules not to break written on it. And i really did deserve it though.

[@diyalectic52]

That Microsoft hack was nuts and pathetic on their part lol. BTW Kennedy INFP's are naturally scattered - it's why they're the creative types. They're led by their interests and while it can go too far to the point that it negatively affects their lives (which then results in an ADHD diagnosis), they can't entirely lose that scattered way of thinking - it's an integral part of their mental wiring.

[@leticiabeanguido]

Omg I would love to see mama Jen salsa 💃🏽

[@bbghoul_x]

Saaame

[@Julia-fz4yw]

Please don't stop making these🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽

[@lindsayjohnson8490]

For me it almost feels like I can’t take a deep breath and then my heart start meeting really fast and it feels like I can’t breath and the dr told me it was bc of a heart murmur when I was like 13 I’m 24 now and still have it. When my anxiety gets really bad is when it’s at its worst not sure if it’s the same

[@KyooArts]

I got sleep apnea after getting Covid and getting vaccinated 🤷🏻‍♀️never had an issues before that

[@Winslow273]

Please get a sleep study and see if you need the CPAP. You have no idea how much it effects you to have this until its gone. And it only takes once to die from it.

[@Nathens777]

I get what you mean by saying not being efficient. But taking breaks from a certain project and coming back to it with a fresh mind and no boredom is helpful. By the 3rd project with Brandon’s method the project would be rushed and shitty

[@the.sundew]

i love brandon's voice! :D

[@bashayer6421]

im so excited to use brandon's app

[@marisa_3692]

I love your podcasts! I have been watching the walsh's since kennedys prom video and have been watching ever since all through covid era. I love you guys and love to see how far all of you have come. I wish I could meet you or run into you somewhere which might sound weird but I feel like I would get along with yall even though I'm 19 lol. Kennedy is the most relatable to me bc shes gen z and has always been so pretty and like I don't understand how she is so good at cosplay of characters and make up like its so impressive. Her videos are so zen and I totally relate to her on like so many things i love edibles and I love cats and have 3 of my own which doesn't live up to mama jens number of cats but still i have always loved cats more than dogs (even though I have 2). Also the divorced parents thing is so relatable because I feel like i am a lot closer with my mom and jen is such a wonderful creative mother to you guys and I relate bc my mom is a hair dresser and is super artistic and creative. I love you guys so much and have grown up with you all, also I missed having claudia on the pod she is such a sag like me even though I know yg don't really believe in zodiacs but I feel like claudia at my age is probably similar to where I am now. I hope to be like her engaged to a wonderful successful man and have many cats and maybe a dog one day. You guys are all so inspiring thank you brandon for forcing the family to make these podcasts they keep me really entertained and I get excited every time you upload!

[@Winslow273]

Was that a soft launch of "Claudia's pregnancy?"

[@mia.m]

Does anyone know if Brandon’s app is out yet? 😊

[@Missigrx]

Not yet ❤

[@madebym5359]

See , when brandon talked about his mindful attention being taken away from whatever he works on when there are many sources of distraction, ie. texts, i felt thatttt. I dont like my brain to be in many places within like 3 mins. let me finish what im doing. Hate texting too! Dec 12th things i guesss

[@Ryan-hx9dv]

Its called Jathum, in Islam and its a type of Jinn that sits on your chest and doesn’t allow you to breathe.

[@daphnebrookes5010]

Kennedy, your eye make up looks so sultry! 😍

[@Bri-ry2ot]

Is Claudia pregnant?

[@monicafu6705]

my god this look on kennedy is fucking fireeeeeeee

[@lauraxcatharina]

I missed claudia on this ep but I also liked dakota ❤

[@JackCarnell-y3n]

get Alex and Michael on the damn podcast

[@pikaro955]

Being this early feels illegal, anyways love from kuwait yall

[@shaylendoolittle]

Love from Saskatchewan, Canada ❤

[@XxElJefe]

Sleeping on back also triggers sleep paralysis

[@blushfaerie]

16:33 omg jenn you should been better at comforting kennedy lmao "shouldnt have let them do that"? Victim blaming much

[@Sammy45sam]

why doesn’t jen be honest about her tummy tuck

[@manda6077]

Also Jen I just want to say both my mother and I have had scares like that with waking up in our sleep and gasping for air and also issues with snoring which are both signs of sleep apnea though neither of us have ever gone to get tested and I know we should that is a thing and one thing that I do to really helped that is I sleep propped up when I'm on my back because I also have back issues and need to be comfortable so when I'm not on my side and want to be on my back I put those pillows propped up so then I am in a slanted upward position and can breathe better also Jen please don't you really should talk to your doctor about it and word to the wise or whatever that saying is LOL don't research anything online or let Google tell you anything because most times you're going to research and find that you're dying in reality that's not the case at least most of the time it's not accurate 1st summit may be unfortunately but it's always best to just talk with your doctor and let them be the expert that they are in it researching it yourself will just scare the crap out of you although some people might say that doctors didn't listen to them and they found their own diagnosis themselves through researching it so I mean do what you will with it but most of the time you really should just go and go to your doctor also you might think it's only happening once every 2 years but it happens more often than you know you're just not waking up from it because it's not that extreme to wake you up which is a good thing but it doesn't mean it's not still happening and that is what I was told was you would see the ENT for that issue Side note I apologize for the long run on comments with no grammar or punctuation because I am using voice to text while I'm driving LOL and just talking into my phone I know most people😂😂

[@mariahcherie4873]

There are tongue stabilizing devices for sleep apnea

[@chupachuuups706]

Her sleep apnea can be prevented by mewing. Or better yet, proper tongue posture. Just saying.

[@amrita1291]

Todays viewers questions i missed claudia. She would have answered so well. She relates so well...also cannot wait for the app to release❤

[@backoffbucko]
