Shadowing-Übung: Lean Beef Patty on Learning to Be Yourself Without Everyone’s Approval - Englisch Sprechen Lernen mit Video

After I had quit the gymnastics and that was my whole identity, I just felt like a failure.

I literally don't know what to do with my life, so it was super uncomfortable.

How did you find your new identity?

I tried new things.

I found things that I liked.

I tried to stop putting so much weight on that sense of identity.

You just seem so not worried about other people's perception.

What are some things that have helped you get there?

I just gotta live my truth.

As long as I'm living my truth, things will feel better.

You live a very simple life.

Do you care about materialistic things?

I think I enjoy a simple life because it feels less complicated.

If I just have too many things, like there's just like so much stuff.

Like it's freaking me out and there's a mess everywhere.

Do you have a relationship with any kind of like higher being than you?

I grew up going to church, but currently like I don't feel that's a big part of my life.

In your opinion, what does success mean to you?

I think success would be like peace.

Whatever you got going on, if you feel at peace with yourself and with your life, I think that's success.

I'm Liana Diab.

This is Being Human.

I'm glad you're here.

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Being Human.

I am sitting down with Patti today, which she's also known as Lean Beef Patti and she is one of the most prominent female fitness influencers.

But other than that, she is so much more than just a fitness influencer.

She is someone who has such a quirky and cool personality, and I'm so excited to learn more about her story.

And yeah, thank you so much for being here today with me.

Thank you for having me.

Happy to be here.

So the first thing I want to start off with is for those

that don't know why you go by lean beef patty obviously your name is patricia

but why did you choose lean beef patty that's a great question

because i can't totally remember i know i have a friend who will say

that he came up with the name

but i'm like i think i came up with it i know

that it settled on lean beef because i tried to get a different username

that was like full beef patty and it was already taken

so i had go with lean beef patty as the runner -up

and that's where we're at we just got lunch as well

and we were like discussing this and um was it

because of like a cow was

that inspired it not really a cow necessarily like a the

image of a cow wasn't in my head it was just patty like a burger

and then lean beef like a burger so sometimes

when i bring up those two things

and people will think of a nice little moo cow and then they're like, ah, burger.

There's like some sort of disconnect, but yeah, I was thinking of a burger.

Okay, nice.

So you grew up on a farm or did you grow up somewhere else?

I grew up more, maybe it'd be like a suburb.

Okay.

And then my mom had a farm further away for basically my whole life.

Okay.

So most of the time we spent more just like a regular suburban area.

Okay.

And also time on the farm.

Okay, nice.

And so do you really enjoy being like on the farm with your family?

I do, yeah.

I'll go there.

My mom goes there super regularly.

She's there for like half the week usually.

And I try to go out and see her because she also likes when I go and see her.

And I like being there.

It is really calm.

And you just do, there's always something to do on the farm, like a task to be done.

Yeah.

So I like to go and help her.

Are you only American?

Or is your family from somewhere else?

Because I feel like you don't look just American.

What do I look like?

I don't know.

Just ambiguous?

No, maybe like, I don't know if you have any Russian in you, or no. I've gotten that before.

I don't think so.

Well, I got that a while ago.

I think when I had a different style, and I was like, oh, maybe this is giving Russia?

I don't know.

I mean, I'm American.

My dad is from Germany, but he was adopted as a baby.

So I feel like that, you know, there's not really a connection there.

Uh -huh.

And what about your mom?

Is she originally from, were you born and raised in California?

Yes.

Okay.

So I was born and raised in California.

My mom was born and raised in California.

I think at least her mom was born and raised in California.

So I'm still here and it's in my roots.

And originally she was just like born and raised in America?

Yes.

My grandma on my mom's side did like one of those lineage things.

And I think they came over here like a while ago, like not anytime recently.

And before that it was England and I think Ireland.

Okay, cool.

Because I know you said you grew up playing gymnastics, right?

100

And your mom was a gymnast as well.

101

And I'm always thinking like it's usually Russians or something

102

or kind of like Ukrainian or something

103

that is like a strong like yeah into gymnastics

104

and everything russia has a really good gymnastics team

105

and like uh reputation yeah so i guess that's kind of like where i was like thinking but um so

106

Being a gymnast, and how long did you do that for?

107

Like 12 years.

108

Gymnastics, it requires a lot of dedication.

109

It's like every single day you have practice, right?

110

Yeah, I had practice five days a week for as long as I can remember doing that.

111

So do you feel like that taught you discipline from like a young age?

112

I would say so, yeah.

113

It definitely helped.

114

And I don't know if it's just the way that I am or that probably contributed a lot, but I like structure

115

so those two things kind of formed me what was a

116

part of your life where it like you stopped doing gymnastics

117

and did you go straight into the gym

118

or was there like a period of where you like kind

119

of stopped doing everything I think there was a super small time frame where I stopped doing everything

120

but it was just because I don't know I didn't know what to do so my life felt really

121

fragmented like it there was no structure I was like I

122

don't I literally don't know what to do with my life

123

so it's super uncomfortable that probably didn't even last a year

124

and then I asked my dad to take me to the gym

125

and he took me to the gym

126

that he had been going to for like 20 years

127

and yeah and I guess for those that don't know about your dad

128

because you said like we were talking and you said

129

that he's from like he's he's rode a bike like a hundred miles yeah

130

and that's not even like crazy for him which is insane

131

because I told you guys at lunch like it's not people

132

will think of those like distance bikers with the really skinny bikes

133

that weigh like less than a pound and they got their spandex on

134

and they got the whole thing going on which is awesome

135

but that's not my dad he's just like a regular bike

136

just with his headphones on he does wear a helmet i got him like one of those little reflective things

137

because i was like you need to be safe out there

138

but he'll just go on a weekend and be like oh the weather's I think I'm gonna bike ride 100 miles.

139

And so I'm like, where are you going?

140

My goodness.

141

So does your family inspire you with like, I don't know, being disciplined or even like your career?

142

I would say so, yeah.

143

Not that like one parent is more one way or the other, but I feel like my mom is very entrepreneurial.

144

So that has inspired me to be like, you know, you don't have to do something traditional for things to work out.

145

Like you can really just make life what you want to make it.

146

And then my dad is very disciplined with everything that he does pretty much.

147

But he's also really chill.

148

Like it's not overly that, but yeah.

149

So did you grow up in a dynamic where your mom was like the provider?

150

No, I think both my parents do well, but because, at least in my mind, you know, I haven't like asked them to clarify for me, like who was actually the breadwinner.

151

But at least in my mind growing up, It was like my dad had the traditional, stable, constant job.

152

So I was like, okay, this is like the stability.

153

And then my mom maybe would have like seasons

154

because her job can be a little more seasonal of like she's making a lot more.

155

Like she's running a camp or something.

156

And then there's times like when it's raining, which it doesn't rain very much in California.

157

But when it's raining, she can't do her job.

158

Your mom being ambitious and like, you know, an entrepreneur, would you say that, I guess you took that trait and kind of just started posting on social media?

159

I don't think so, just because I never really went into it with any sort of intention like that.

160

Like, I didn't use social media very much before I started posting on it.

161

Okay.

162

So I didn't understand a lot of things, you know?

163

I think the most I really did was watch music videos on YouTube.

164

Okay.

165

And I would make like pictures on like PixArt and post that to my private Instagram.

166

I started just posting because I was going to the gym.

167

I had people telling me like, oh, you're fit.

168

You should like share your fitness stuff.

169

And for a long time, I was like, I don't want to do that because this is like mine.

170

And this is special to me.

171

And I don't want to pollute it.

172

But then I decided to do that.

173

And my content, I just wanted to try to be helpful.

174

What timeline before you started social media did you start going to the gym?

175

Was it like two to three years of transforming your body first?

176

It was actually quite a few years.

177

But I'm not sure my body really transformed all that much because I had done gymnastics.

178

Right.

179

So as a child, I was pretty lean and pretty muscular.

180

kind of a scrawny kid for a while

181

but like with muscle yeah um and then

182

when i started going to the gym i already had this image of myself as like i'm strong you know

183

so that's kind of how it felt

184

and there was some years where i struggled with eating

185

and food and so my body changed yeah

186

but i don't know i don't feel like i ever experienced newbie gains or things like that

187

so as some of you all know i am on this journey to really cutting back on anything synthetic whether

188

that be in my clothes or in my cleaning supplies.

189

And that's where Branch Basics comes in.

190

And honestly, I have been using Branch Basics for my laundry detergent, my dishwasher pods, my cleaning supplies when it comes to wiping down counters,

191

or even cleaning my mirrors, because I am just trying to be very intentional about all of the things in my space,

192

especially because I am someone who cares about hormones

193

which a lot of people don't realize that not only is it things

194

that you eat are going to disrupt your hormones

195

but it's also the things around you so whether that be scents

196

or fragrances and that's why branch basics is so amazing

197

because it is fragrance free and it's also pet safe

198

and kid safe and it's actually made from plant -based ingredients

199

and i have fallen in love with this brand

200

and i've been using it for ages now which is why i'm

201

so grateful that they are sponsoring today's podcast and so

202

if you are someone who wants to be very intentional about the items

203

that you're using to clean your space

204

or to wash your clothes then go to branchbasics .com you can also find branch basics at target

205

or amazon and

206

if you want to get the premium starter kit then you

207

can also get it for 15 off with my code liana

208

so go to branchbasics .com get the starter kit

209

and use my code liana what was your relationships back then

210

with the gym i feel like it might have changed now slightly

211

because it's your work i mean it has for me at least like in terms of like fitness

212

if you're filming and everything it becomes like it's still a a stable

213

and an essential part of your life

214

but do you feel like back then it was something different

215

for you yeah it was something different it was well i

216

also didn't have as much information about working out back then

217

and there's a ton of good information now easily available online

218

but i wasn't really online

219

so I just kind of would go move my body kind

220

of like a bit of a tweaker like I was one of those people just going everywhere like being crazy

221

and doing everything super intensely I think just to relieve

222

some sort of emotion or tension yeah

223

and now as grateful as I am sometimes there's just not the same relief why do you think

224

that maybe because it's like the main thing that i do

225

so when i had like a nine to five

226

and i was going to that

227

and i would go to the gym afterwards i was like

228

oh this is like my time to let everything out

229

but now i'm like it's a it's a blessing that i don't have to

230

let something out that hard yeah

231

but it uh it's just different it feels like a force now yeah for me at least too i

232

but it's like still pushing myself to go

233

but yeah it felt it feels harder now to go versus then

234

when i used to

235

and i i kind of like try to incorporate new kind of styles of training are you doing that

236

or are you kind of like just one way you enjoy

237

bodybuilding the most i changed it up a little bit like i was doing power lifting for a

238

while i don't know if i just was doing something wrong

239

or i'm sure i was moving something weird or but i started to get this really bad neck pain.

240

Like it was pretty intense and just like crippling.

241

And you know, when you have like a chronic pain and then you're just like, just everything kind of is a bummer.

242

So I stopped doing heavy squat bench deadlift for a while doing bodybuilding -esque things.

243

I mean, I've never competed, so I don't know.

244

It's not that structured and the neck pain kind of went away.

245

So I haven't deviated much from those two styles.

246

Okay.

247

And you enjoy that the most?

248

Yes, I think so.

249

You don't think you'd ever start biking or anything?

250

I like to bike, just casually.

251

Okay, really?

252

Yeah.

253

Just around in California, you're biking?

254

Yeah.

255

Oh, nice.

256

There's a lot of nice places to bike around here.

257

So there's a lot of riverbeds.

258

You can just bike next to the riverbed.

259

Oh, that's nice.

260

Yeah.

261

So your relationship with food, was it toxic if you're open to sharing that?

262

Kind of both.

263

And amongst other things.

264

Like, those issues kind of developed either right before I quit gymnastics, definitely after I quit.

265

Like, right before I quit, I kind of started to hit puberty and I was scrawny before.

266

And then I just started to gain a little more, you know, figure.

267

And I can distinctly remember the very first time I was standing, like, with my legs together and my thighs touched.

268

I remember the day and, like, the time and what I was doing.

269

And I was, like, I just, like, became aware.

270

So that was really weird and that made me uncomfortable.

271

And I mean, I'm sure you know, there's like that arrow when it's like, oh, the thigh gap.

272

Yeah, no, I wanted the, yeah.

273

Same, I remember like taking a picture of my thigh gap.

274

Yeah, so there was that.

275

And then when I quit, it was a combination of being a lot less active.

276

So I was like, oh, well, if food is fuel and I'm not doing anything to need fuel, why do I need fuel?

277

And also I was like a kid, so I didn't know all these other things.

278

Yeah. And...

279

I don't think a lot of people are taught like how to listen to their body

280

and like understand hunger cues and things like that.

281

So I didn't understand that and everything was just scary and overwhelming.

282

So I thought I should just, I don't know, not do any of it.

283

What were the emotions that you were going through at the time?

284

Was it just like not wanting to pick up certain foods?

285

Did you feel like repulsed by food?

286

I don't think I felt repulsed.

287

every once in a while I'd like look at meat

288

or something and just start thinking about it and be like

289

that is horrific so it was just like meat specific

290

but other than

291

that I wasn't repulsed it was fear kind of there's going to be a lot of people

292

that tune in in like are maybe going through an eating

293

disorder what was the journey like of getting out of the eating disorder it was pretty long for me

294

and I think it's long for a lot of people

295

and I was lucky enough to be able to get professional help not everybody is able to do

296

that and even sometimes people will struggle for a lifetime

297

and that's unfortunate so I kind of took a physical decline rather quickly

298

that was noticeable to those around me so

299

and my mom already had like some knowledge of eating disorders

300

and things like that so she was like okay we need to take it

301

or see someone so I went to see I think just like a therapist

302

and we were talking and then the therapist was like I think you need

303

more intense treatment and I was like no I don't you know I was like actually I think I was upset

304

I was like crying to them I was like no I'll be better I'll be better don't send me away

305

so so I tried to be better

306

but then I didn't try to be better because I didn't want to get better

307

so I was trying to like trick them

308

and I don't know they're just all the tricks in the

309

book I was pulling eventually after a few years it becomes very taxing

310

and it just isn't pleasant to live through so after a

311

while i decided like okay now i want help

312

and this was after going in and out of like residential treatments more than once

313

which i'm very lucky to have been able to do

314

but eventually i was like okay i want help because this sucks

315

so i went got the help still struggled for a long time

316

but then I had this one relationship and it was so traumatic that it like cured my eating disorder which is insane.

317

I think because I was just so stressed about my partner at the time

318

and like what was going on I just forgot about worrying about food.

319

So it was kind of like that for me

320

which is not nice to say for other people

321

because I don't think that's realistic for everybody's journey but that's what happened with me.

322

Do you have any tips or advice

323

if you were to to put yourself back in like your shoes of where you were at in

324

that time of your life for people

325

that might be going through a similar thing

326

that you wish you would have like known then I mean it's difficult to say

327

because I think there was a lot of things I knew

328

but I just didn't want to accept

329

because I mean I was like it started out as like a preteen

330

so I didn't really want to listen to anyone saying anything and I didn't care what they were saying.

331

Yeah.

332

But I think a lot of people at some point feel like an inkling of like, I don't like doing this.

333

Like, I don't want to do this.

334

And to understand like, they don't, they don't have to do that.

335

And there are ways to help.

336

Some of the ways are more complicated if they're not in the best, you know, don't have insurance or something.

337

It can get a little more complicated.

338

If they can do that it's scary but I would do

339

that because it feels a lot better to get help yeah you don't think it's something

340

that someone can do on their own I think they can I I don't know

341

if I could have done that I think

342

that people definitely can just do things themselves I don't know

343

if I would have had the strength yeah so really being open

344

and talking to someone about it instead of just like hiding it yeah at least in my experience

345

and for a lot of other people i'd talked to a big part of

346

that was hiding and feeling shame or just fear over either having to change

347

or people judging them or feeling exposed something like

348

that would you have wished you would have said something

349

and like not had that shame i mean when i was younger no

350

because i just i wanted to do that yeah

351

and the underlying issue was something else like i think after i had quit the gymnastics and

352

that was my whole identity um i just felt like a

353

failure like i felt like i don't have an identity

354

and part of it was a self -punishment

355

so i went through a similar journey of like losing my identity

356

when i kind of made a transformation in my life so i guess like how did you find your new identity

357

or try to figure out who am I supposed to be after gymnastics when that's kind of like everything that you knew?

358

I tried different things like I tried other sports as time

359

went by it was I mean time can be a great healer

360

so it was kind of easier to let that go a bit

361

and accept that but I tried new things I found things

362

that I liked I tried to stop putting so much weight

363

on that like sense of identity especially now I try to do things

364

that it's like it's it's okay to change it's okay to

365

be wrong you know it's okay to grow yeah did you

366

go to college what did you major in psychology oh I don't think that influenced me that much

367

so do you want did you ever want to be a psychologist not really originally I wanted to study neuroscience

368

but then I realized I was

369

so bad at math I didn't believe it was realistic for me

370

so then I did psychology because I was like oh well it's kind of you know

371

and I didn't have any other interests.

372

What else can you be with like a psychology major?

373

Is it understanding awareness around the things that we do?

374

Like what did you learn from that experience?

375

Well I don't think my degree would uh be enough to really say anything about anything but

376

if you're a smooth enough talker you can definitely manipulate some

377

sort of an interview to be like this is what this taught me

378

and this is what i'm bringing to the table

379

because i did get a job once because i had

380

that degree didn't bring anything to the table but the guy just assessed that like oh you're reliable

381

and because you have a degree yeah

382

so you're hired i was like okay there's just now this

383

thing where people are like kind of leaning towards becoming a creator

384

and not using their degree or do you feel like you needed your degree to do what you do now?

385

I did not need my degree to do what I do now, but I'm still happy that I went to school.

386

Yeah, because it taught you discipline or I mean you've already learned discipline, so did it teach you something else?

387

It taught me a lot about myself as a person and at the time and also I like structure, so I liked thinking like,

388

okay, what am I doing right now in my life?

389

Oh, I'm going to school, so this is what you do

390

when you go to school yeah yeah did you go to school i dropped out of college okay yeah

391

but i was going for kinesiology okay yeah

392

because i always loved movement too i played soccer growing up

393

and that was kind of my identity as well and so

394

when i stopped playing college soccer i kind of went through

395

like a similar chapter where i was like not sure what to do with my life

396

and that's kind of when i was just like picking up jobs

397

and trying to find my purpose i ended up being like a personal trainer

398

and then yeah

399

but i think it took a lot of failing to get

400

there though to figure out like this is not for me this is for me

401

but i sometimes wish i would have went to school

402

because i feel like it teaches you i never was good at school in general like studying

403

and applying myself to things i i feel like school does help

404

that so i i'm not like a i don't hate college

405

but i also don't think you need college nowadays for everything i guess it just depends on what major right

406

or what job you want to do okay

407

so i guess in terms of like practices

408

that you do for like your mindset or mental health especially

409

because like you are an online persona

410

and i feel like it just requires a lot of you

411

and so i i guess how are you navigating like mental health

412

and being in tune with yourself i mean there's like different aspects that are weighing from the social media thing.

413

Some of it I've just just internally my mindset is like you just gotta let it go you know

414

because like it's happening or it's not happening or

415

if there's nothing you can do about it just don't make your life worse thinking about it.

416

I was trying to meditate for a

417

while I was doing like morning breathing practices going for walks I don't usually talk to like friends

418

or anyone about these things because i don't think

419

that they would understand

420

and sometimes it feels i don't know like i try not to either get online

421

and be like i'm feeling like this

422

because i'm sure you know like people are going to be

423

like your life is amazing why are you feeling like this

424

and i'm like no i know it's amazing it's amazing

425

but like i still feel like this yeah most of my

426

practices i do are just like mindfulness adjacent stuff is it like a regular thing

427

that you do is like meditate or go for walks.

428

Going for walks, yeah.

429

I do pretty normally.

430

I started running a little bit, which feels similar to the walking, but just like a little more exertion.

431

So maybe like releasing something a little bit more.

432

Yeah.

433

Feel more accomplished after.

434

Keeping a routine is really big for me to keep like mental peace.

435

Are you a person to sit with emotions that you're feeling

436

or do you kind of like escape them i guess it depends what emotion

437

because i do kind of sit with them okay i feel

438

them nice what i'm curious what do you do is it the journaling

439

and the prayer for your daily yeah like routine yeah

440

so i i every day i'd like pray five times a day like in my faith

441

and then that's kind of like i i use it as

442

kind of like a way to just step step away from

443

the world it's kind of like meditation in many ways it's

444

just like being in tune with your thoughts obviously i'm like

445

kind of speaking to a creator something greater than me thinking for my life

446

and the things that i have it's kind of like a reminder

447

that the problems that i'm going through in life are not

448

that deep and i need to just like continue to keep going

449

so i would say like that really helps me but also journaling

450

and like communicating like brain dumping instead of holding all the

451

thoughts in my mind kind of helps me just like feel more in tune with myself

452

and stop overthinking because I used to struggle with like really bad anxiety

453

and just like speaking to myself and trying to make it positive

454

so yeah I guess are you a big journaler I journal sometimes I wouldn't say a big journaler maybe

455

if I'm lucky like two entries a year okay pretty good for me I mean, the journal I have right now,

456

I think I've had since elementary school.

457

And it's not full.

458

I don't even know if it's halfway.

459

Wow.

460

If there were to be one supplement that I would recommend, it would be hydration packets.

461

And that's where Cure comes in.

462

And honestly, I have been using Cure for so many years now

463

because it is one of the most trusted electrolyte brands based off of the ingredients that they use.

464

And honestly, it's so clean

465

that I put my whole family onto it okay my nieces use these electrolytes

466

and i love them so much

467

and as someone who does not enjoy drinking water putting cure

468

electrolyte packets into my water actually helps me stay hydrated

469

and get in at least three liters of water

470

which is crucial for your skin to feel energized

471

and that's where cure comes in and gives you the minerals

472

that you need because a lot of the times even

473

when we're drinking water the amount of water doesn't have the nutrients

474

that we need And so adding minerals that have magnesium

475

or himalayan salt is going to help hydrate your body And

476

if you are someone who wants to stay hydrated go to curehydration .com

477

and use code liana to get 20 % off of your order My favorite flavors are watermelon

478

and lemon and there's just so many more to choose from

479

So go to curehydration .com

480

and use my code liana for 20 % off Do you

481

have a relationship with any kind of like higher being than you?

482

I don't know.

483

I grew up going to church, I guess non -denominational.

484

So I grew up with that a lot, but currently, I don't know.

485

Maybe I just don't think about it.

486

Like I don't feel that's a big part of my life at the moment.

487

Do you believe in something greater in terms of like a God or like a universe?

488

Yeah, I think I do, or at least I would like to.

489

Yeah.

490

You know, I think of how there's like matter

491

and it's neither created nor destroyed and it just maybe it changes what it is

492

but it's still there

493

so I'm like I think there's something more yeah yeah do you think what do you think

494

that more is I don't know I don't know yeah

495

because I mean a lot of people tend to take on like practices of like family um

496

or like being born into

497

that do you feel like there was a time of your life where you kind of just like no I'm

498

like I don't know not following a religion to the T

499

yeah I mean I'll still go to church every now

500

and then and I'll like listen to a sermon

501

and be like like I think the last one I went to I was like literally crying sitting there

502

because like it's just like touched my soul um

503

but it's like not that frequent and there's definitely things

504

that I'm like I don't know about this one

505

but yeah I think for me there was like a turning point

506

when I was in middle school and just like something happened in middle school where I was like, I don't know.

507

I don't know about this anymore.

508

And then other things that went along with that that other people deal with just like sort of religious guilt things.

509

And I'm already a person that I feel guilty about everything all the time, always, so I'm like, I don't know if I can keep compounding that and survive.

510

So I don't know, a lot of these things I just don't think about that hard.

511

But do you feel like, I guess religion always feels like, I don't know

512

if you're not a perfect human it kind of makes you feel guilty about things rather than like

513

because I used to interpret it in that way

514

that like I grew up thinking that religion it kind of made God seem as this like scary thing

515

in that we're not perfect and we never are going to be perfect kind of thing

516

and it comes with a lot of guilt and i would always be

517

so hard on myself if i ever made a mistake

518

and it was like a sin whereas now i'm like i look at things

519

and i'm like okay i try to be a better person

520

but i'm not gonna like have

521

so much guilt to the point where like i self -sabotage

522

and then like feel extremely low

523

so i guess did you kind of like feel as

524

if religion it just like highlighted guilt all the time a

525

lot of it did yeah I didn't think it was like God is this punisher

526

and making me feel guilty it was more like the overall

527

structure just like as a system I guess made me feel bad

528

so I never was like oh God hates me it was

529

kind of like this person over here telling me this I was kind of shifting whatever blame on to

530

that I was like this person is making me feel this way

531

and I don't want to be around this yeah no it's it's like scary

532

or it's not scary but it's like sad

533

that like a lot of people can also ruin religion i

534

guess it's tough right it's don't get me wrong i think religion is extremely important

535

and like beneficial yeah to people okay so i know

536

that you started your own clothing brand which what is the exact name

537

if you want to share a little bit about it i

538

mean it's not like a full clothing brand it's just these t -shirts with cows on it

539

and it's called leanbeefteas .com nice honestly i just feel like it represents your personality

540

and I feel like a lot of people don't know

541

that you paint or draw I don't know if it's something

542

that you frequently share but is that something

543

that you turn to in terms of like trying to de -stress

544

because you're a great artist thank you like

545

that cow is just kind of silly no like

546

but it's such a great cow though oh thank you I don't usually turn to art when I'm alone

547

if someone else is there with me

548

and they're like oh this would be nice then I'll do it

549

and it can be like cathartic and relaxing and feel really good

550

and I'm happy about it

551

but I don't know I just don't ever do it by myself I think I'm

552

so stimulated and I'm like

553

if I'm not doing something where I feel productive I'm like oh I'm uncomfortable yeah so what inspired you to paint

554

I guess a cow and just start painting.

555

I don't remember why I decided to paint the cow.

556

It was like painting with my friends at my friend's house

557

and sometimes we'll think of a theme so everyone paints

558

that theme but I think this is one of the times we didn't

559

and so my other two friends were painting something else

560

and for whatever reason I just painted a cow on a surfboard surfing and And after that, when we got together again,

561

I don't know, I just decided I'm just going to keep painting just cows.

562

And I paint other things, but I don't share them.

563

Creating that into clothing, I guess, like when you're wearing the item, I guess, what does it feel for you?

564

Does it like, do you tap into something different?

565

Because for me, when I see that, it also kind of gives me this feeling of like tapping into your inner child a little bit.

566

And I feel that when I'm even just talking to you, is you have this childlike,

567

not personality, but I feel like it's so important to keep that a part of us, which a lot of us lose, because it makes life so much lighter and easier.

568

And so what is the feelings that you get from wearing the clothing

569

that you've created and what you want other people to feel?

570

I mean, because I created it, I can be a lot more critical, I think, of it than probably other people would be.

571

But apart from that, it's just kind of silly.

572

It's like, oh, what's going on there?

573

You know, it's just like a silly little something going on.

574

So that's what I like to feel.

575

Where do you get the urge to be so free in life?

576

Like, you seem very free -spirited.

577

Oh, thank you.

578

Is that from your parents, or is that something that you just, like, try to...

579

Are you aware of

580

that? like being what is the free spirited this thing it

581

gives me like just tapping into your inner child like it

582

just feels it feels very comforting like your energy oh thank

583

you I'm not sure I don't know I mean I don't really view myself as being

584

that free spirited

585

but of course I'm only experiencing reality from my own you

586

know yeah I mean perspective you have like two braids that you're growing out.

587

Oh, that's true.

588

But for me, it was just kind of like, I want to see how long my hair will get, but I don't like when the hair is touching my skin.

589

So what if I just have a little bit?

590

And I didn't freaking grow.

591

So it's so like carefree though.

592

I mean, do you have any tips or advice for people

593

that care so much about things like you just seem so like careless

594

and not worried about other people's perception or judgment or anything?

595

You just seem like yourself so I guess like what are some things

596

that have helped you get there well thank you I think something

597

that comes to mind I think you mentioned earlier when you were talking about

598

prayer which not the same thing this is like my mindset but that like your problems aren't

599

that deep maybe so a lot of my problems might come from some sort of insecurity

600

or like a fear

601

and those things keep me like this it helps having also compassionate people around you

602

but when I just start realizing it's like okay I just gotta live my truth you know

603

and And as long as I'm living my truth and hopefully no one gets hurt in the process, then probably things will feel better.

604

Yeah.

605

And were you always like that?

606

No. No. Because I don't love being perceived, even apart from like the internet stuff,

607

with my friends and my family.

608

I also don't share very much about like what I'm thinking.

609

I don't know if in my family we were big talkers about things.

610

Like it was always super loving.

611

Like I had a great family life, but I don't remember like talking that much about painful things.

612

So I don't like talking about that with people.

613

And I don't want to hurt people.

614

And I don't want to be hurt by people.

615

So it kind of, I'm like more of a wall.

616

And just recently I'm trying to just let it out.

617

What are the feelings of like holding it in? is it

618

feel like you're not afraid to like talk about things

619

but I guess like is it

620

because you don't want to be perceived I think it's

621

because I don't want to be perceived like I don't want to speak my truth to someone

622

and then they come back and be like wow you're horrible

623

or usually it's like someone I really care about like I

624

might not want to say like my full honest whatever answer

625

because I'm afraid it's going to be the wrong answer for them.

626

And then maybe I'll lose this connection with this person and that would hurt me and whatever.

627

But then I came to realize it's like,

628

how true was that connection anyway if I wasn't being totally open with this person?

629

Because maybe their perception of me is a totally different person than what I actually am.

630

And it's because I'm withholding that from them.

631

This is not only like on social media is this in

632

like your day -to -day really like your relationships not speaking

633

really yeah i don't really tell like i'm pretty private online even though yeah i'm open i myself yeah

634

but i just don't share that much and i don't share

635

that much in real life either so was there a thing

636

that kind of made you feel like you can't communicate

637

or share that information does it not feel like you're holding so much in at times?

638

Or is it kind of like you just don't need to say something?

639

Sometimes it feels like holding in, but most of the time, maybe it's just because I'm kind of used to it.

640

It's like I don't feel the need to most of the time.

641

So I guess in relationships, are you a good communicator about what's bothering you?

642

I've been told no. But I'm working on it.

643

Yeah, which I could see that because I mean, there's been a lot of...

644

not a lot.

645

There's been some times where, I don't know, I'll just like not share something,

646

not trying to like hide anything necessarily, but I'm just like, I don't know.

647

You know, I'm like, I don't know if I should say this thing

648

and then this person flips out on me or so I'll just keep it to myself.

649

And then eventually that usually also ends up bad.

650

So I realized you should probably just say what you're feeling and thinking at the time.

651

And so I guess, are you trying to get better at doing that?

652

I am trying.

653

It's not easy, but I'm trying.

654

So as some of y 'all know, I have shared my story about trying to figure out what is wrong with my hormonal health.

655

As someone who hates getting their blood taken, I finally did it.

656

And one brand that I highly recommend to get your blood tested is Superpower.

657

and now i want to tell you why it's

658

so important to get your blood tested so

659

if you go through my content i have talked about

660

so many things that i've dealt with whether that be my gut acne

661

hormonal imbalances wondering if i have pcos

662

and that's where super power came into play they came to my apartment took my blood it was

663

so smooth and easy it didn't hurt at all i thought i was going to pass out

664

and faint but honestly the process was literally so easy

665

and then they essentially take your blood to the lab

666

and then they give you back your results

667

and then they can tell you what supplements you need

668

if you need prescriptions and honestly being aware of your health is

669

so important especially we're going into 2027 like the year is almost over

681

682

so i want to talk about your content

683

because yes you're a fitness creator but you create content in such a unique way

684

and you also showcase your personality with like anime

685

or like you know different kinds of characters posing is something that's big in the fitness space

686

but i just feel like you're the posing is kind of

687

also unique in a different way yeah um the posing actually like originally the posing people i think this is

688

when jojo's was

689

more popular too or like a new season to come out

690

or something what is jojo's oh jojo's bizarre adventure it's an anime okay

691

but you know i tried anime a little bit what is

692

the main one it's like seven rings seven deadly sins seven

693

deadly sins oh that's one i would tell you i was like i don't know

694

if you should watch that one okay i don't know i mean i like it

695

but sometimes there's some scenes where i'm just like this is weird like something weird is happening

696

or like there's too much fan service

697

and i'm just like what am i watching fan service fan service it's like

698

when they make a character over sexualized yeah i mean to be honest i didn't i didn't know

699

that it like there was that kind of different like differences in anime um

700

so you don't like i i guess for example like what is i guess the anime

701

that you watch first i i didn't know

702

that the seven deadly sins i mean i watched seven deadly sins i do like it i do like it

703

but it's one of those also i feel like sometimes in these different online communities like people can be like so

704

polarized one day or the other

705

and it's just like one day everyone's like okay we don't like this anymore

706

and so then if you're like oh i like this like you're horrible you know

707

so it's like i don't know i i like seven deadly sins

708

but there are some parts where like if i think about it i'm just like

709

what's going on i feel like you have acquired so much success thank you in social media

710

but you live a very simple life yes like you took a video

711

that you still have the same car I love that Prius yeah

712

and I wanted to understand like do you care about you know materialistic things

713

or do you just enjoy like a simple life I think I enjoy a simple life

714

because it feels less complicated

715

and growing up I lived a simple life like my parents

716

weren't poor I think we were like middle class maybe upper middle class

717

but I think they came from families that maybe weren't as well off

718

so that kind of trickled down to our family just living conservatively I guess

719

and that never bothered me and I like it because it's simple

720

and sometimes I find even where I live now like

721

if I just have too many things like there's just like

722

so much stuff like it's freaking me out and there's a mess everywhere

723

and it's like there's not really a mess but

724

if I have a lot of things it will become a mess

725

so I don't want

726

that I don't care about the image I don't know maybe it's cool to drive like a cool car

727

but I think people get over it pretty quick like

728

that feeling yeah that feeling so I don't even really care to have it in the first place in your opinion

729

what does success mean to you I think success would this

730

is just kind of my view would be like peace

731

so just like feeling peace in your life whether you know you're well off you're not

732

so well off whatever you got going on

733

if you feel at peace with yourself

734

and with your life i think that's success what are some things

735

that help you feel at peace for me personally spending a

736

lot of alone time i like being alone going for walks i usually i'm not a person

737

that feels lonely most of the time i just don't feel like

738

that really yeah i just don't really feel lonely

739

which i like being around the people that i like you know it's always nice but when i'm alone

740

I don't think I've ever felt lonely.

741

So having alone time brings me peace.

742

Seeing my parents brings me peace and now that I'm an adult kind of like

743

really appreciating them and what they've done and the memories that we've had things like that bring me peace.

744

Taking care of myself, like fueling my body.

745

maybe having a treat but like eating in a way that i know that i'll i'll feel good

746

sleeping i love to sleep what are things

747

that bring you peace prayer for sure brings me a sense of peace being aware of the things

748

that are also like disrupting my peace so i feel like

749

if i'm in conversations with people

750

or it's like something apparent in my life is like going

751

through reoccurring situations where it's like i feel my peace consistently disrupted whether

752

that be like energy like people taking away your energy and whatnot so i think like being firm

753

in setting boundaries with people has bringing me peace like it brings me peace to just like not have

754

so much i don't know like noise around me if

755

that makes sense yeah that does also i feel like i don't know

756

if you struggle with this but being on social media does not bring me peace at at all.

757

So I really have to set like rules with myself in terms of like, how many times I pick up my phone.

758

I started using this like app blocker that blocks my app sometimes

759

because social media can drain your peace and just being online or constantly consuming something.

760

And you kind of feel like in the moment it might bring you peace

761

because it's like the easier thing to do is just like for free time, for example.

762

But it ends up like leaving you drained

763

so yeah i feel like yeah my habits for sure do

764

you do other things other than i mean like are you

765

working instead of spending that social media phone time or are you doing other things or

766

so i like to read okay yeah i like reading i

767

like to just sit in silence sometimes with my thoughts oh yeah

768

and just like let them in yeah um

769

but sometimes my thoughts will go like all over the place

770

so journaling starting like sewing like a little bit here

771

and there trying to get better at it i just i don't know i feel like there's

772

so many hobbies that we want to do

773

but we are not doing them

774

because we end up like yeah yeah doing the easier thing

775

like scrolling i guess like how do you navigate boundaries with

776

people in your life i think that's something i am kind

777

of still learning like my learning to be more open is

778

not a lot of people do a lot of things

779

that bother me that much like the people

780

that are in my life constantly like you know random people will do things

781

and I'm like oh my gosh that was whatever

782

but I don't think that I ask

783

that much of the people in my life

784

so sometimes they'll be like they'll set a boundary with me

785

and they'll be like oh well now I feel bad

786

because like you never bring anything up

787

and I'll be like I don't think there's anything to bring up

788

so maybe that's an issue from me you know okay how

789

do you set boundaries I think it's about the way

790

that you approach the conversation so I used to be such a hothead

791

and I would just like be mad all the time like

792

or the way that I would communicate was kind of with like anger

793

but I realized if I'm communicating in an angry way

794

that person might not actually hear it

795

and it's not actually going to do anything

796

so it's like really just taking a step back

797

and communicating with the person of like things

798

that I might be struggling with um in the way

799

that we're working or maybe it's like a relationship in my life

800

but even then sometimes when you communicate they don't also hear you even

801

if it's in like a calm way and it's kind of just like putting your foot down and

802

I am realizing like if a person is not going to respect it

803

and if they're not meant to be in my life

804

or it's not meant to work out then like it's better than feeling consistently drained

805

if that makes sense so it's like communicating in a calm way for sure

806

and also trying to look at the problem as

807

if you guys are trying to solve it together rather than it's like you versus each other

808

if that makes sense so i feel like that's kind of how

809

but communicating in a calm way because i used to struggle with communicating too

810

but it was in like always just like anger yeah makes sense no

811

that makes sense

812

so do you have a big like friend group no it's pretty small yeah yeah how How many friends do you have?

813

A handful, maybe five.

814

Oh, that's a lot of friends.

815

Okay, yeah.

816

I was gonna say three, but then I was like, oh, that person's my friend.

817

Yeah, like a friend, as in someone you trust with everything.

818

Oh.

819

Like everything.

820

I don't wanna hurt their feelings.

821

I don't know.

822

Are they gonna listen to this?

823

Maybe one, maybe.

824

One?

825

Yeah.

826

Cause do you have like a strong support system?

827

Yeah.

828

Yeah.

829

I don't know, I feel like it's hard with social media like navigating real relationships

830

and stuff so is it a person

831

that was in your life from the beginning no all the other ones are

832

but maybe it's because i've known them way longer

833

and like we've gone through things where i'm like why did you betray my trust yeah um

834

Not that I don't still love them, you know, but I'm like, okay, well, I need to watch what I say with you.

835

I don't know if you went through a situation where when you also became successful on social media,

836

did you start feeling like people around you started kind of not switching up, but acting weird?

837

Sometimes, yeah.

838

Like people that knew me, I don't know, but would like never say anything to me.

839

And now they're saying something to me or I'm also not like, I think I'm friendly and I like people, but maybe I'm not the most welcoming.

840

So I feel like, I don't know how to explain it, but I feel like not that many people have approached me, I think trying to like get something.

841

It's only been like a small amount of people.

842

You don't seem like a people pleaser.

843

Oh, well thank you.

844

That's a great thing.

845

Yeah, I think so.

846

Thank you.

847

Is that because of, is that something that just comes naturally to you?

848

Maybe.

849

I feel like I try to people please in the aspect of like, I'm afraid to say something because oh i guess that's true

850

because you know yeah that but

851

because like i think the welcoming aspect of it like i don't know people just don't i can't think of

852

that many times people have come at me

853

that i've known from before like trying to do something in

854

my case i sometimes had to feel like i had to be overly nice

855

or overly welcoming oh yeah just to kind of like please someone else

856

if that makes sense

857

and there's still times i struggle with it i think sometimes i don't do

858

that because I'll just be kind of emotional and irritated

859

and then in the moment I can't get over my irritation so I don't really care to please anyone else.

860

Maybe it's that.

861

Would you consider yourself shy?

862

Kinda, yeah.

863

Yeah.

864

Yeah, I think so.

865

Is any of your parents shy?

866

They're not shy.

867

My dad's really quiet but he's not shy.

868

Okay, so I want to talk about like baggy clothes.

869

Okay.

870

Because you're always wearing like baggy fits sometimes. Is

871

that just like a comfort thing? yeah I like the option

872

of the layering like I like the little matching sets whatever

873

but sometimes I don't want to be wearing them all the time

874

so I like the option of a lot of times

875

if I go to the gym I'll show up in something

876

like this I might keep it on the whole time

877

and then you know like sometimes for social media like you said how you would know

878

that something would be better so I'm like okay

879

if I'm just going like this and this then probably won't do as well

880

but usually I'll keep this on like the whole time.

881

Yeah.

882

Especially at a commercial gym.

883

Is there a reason why?

884

Comfort, I think.

885

I don't know.

886

Um, I think I used to not think about it as much and maybe it's the social media thing, but I'm just like, I don't want to be looked at.

887

And I think someone's going to listen to that and be like, that's a bunch of baloney.

888

But it's like, I feel like I'm already looked at a lot.

889

I don't need to be looked at all the time.

890

Yeah.

891

No, I understand that perspective because even when I used to wear shorts or sports bras, I would always feel like, i don't know when i was in the gym i would do it like

892

because i felt well i kind of struggled with like wanting validation

893

and stuff which is not every single woman who wears shorts

894

and sports bras there's times where i also just love like looking at my body

895

but i think that like i always wore baggy fits at home

896

but then i felt like on social media also feels more comfortable in a way to like post

897

that stuff versus like being in person

898

and people actually staring at you i know because and i think

899

that there is this like perception of

900

if you are wearing like shorts in a sports bra

901

that you kind of give men the right to look at you

902

when you don't actually want those eyes on you i just feel like

903

when i see the fact that you were like baggy clothes

904

when you have like an amazing body and you could be showcasing it is

905

that because like you don't have a need for validation

906

or is it kind of just like a comfort thing it might be a bit of both i I mean, sometimes I still wear the smaller fits and it's not for the validation,

907

but it's like maybe for the self -validation.

908

I don't know, to like see myself as I'm working out.

909

Most of the time it's the baggy fits for comfort and physical comfort and like mental comfort of like,

910

okay, I'm a little bit incognito, I guess.

911

Like less people are probably gonna look at me.

912

Is there any other points that you want me to like cover about your story?

913

What about mine?

914

I wanted to know what your definition of success was though.

915

I would say sticking to my word, like sticking to the thing that I said I was going to do.

916

I used to think success was materialistic things or having a certain amount of money.

917

And I bought so many dumb things like cars or bags, designer things that left me feeling so empty inside

918

and i thought that's kind of what success was

919

and i felt like i needed to prove that as well by showing

920

that i had those things or it made me feel like worthy

921

and but i realized more and more of just like it just left me feeling emptier

922

and yes money is a blessing right you can pay your bills you can help your family whatever

923

but i think the true like meaning of success is also

924

like being able to create impact in other people's lives like helping other people

925

and And just.. being like content with who you are as a person.

926

I feel like that's something that I still work towards, but it's not money, it's not wealth.

927

And it's just like truly loving who you are.

928

I feel like that's like success in many ways.

929

But okay, so I am so grateful that you came onto this podcast.

930

And I have one more question that I ask every single one of my guests.

931

What does it mean to be human?

932

The word that comes to mind is just like raw.

933

Like, I don't know.

934

To be human is to be raw.

935

Yeah, that's an amazing answer.

936

Just being yourself.

937

Yeah, just being yourself, whatever that is.

938

That's an amazing answer.

Warum man mit diesem Video das Sprechen übt?

Dieses Video bietet einen idealen Kontext fürs Englisch sprechen üben: Es handelt von alltäglichen Gesprächen über Identität, Lebensweise und Erfolg – Themen, die du in echten Situationen oft begegnest. Die natürliche, ungekünstelte Sprache von Lean Beef Patty und der Interviewer:in macht es perfekt fürs shadowspeak (Nachsprechen), da du lernst, wie man locker und authentisch kommuniziert. Zudem hilft es, Selbstvertrauen zu gewinnen, indem du siehst, wie man ohne Sorge um andere Meinungen spricht – eine wertvolle Fähigkeit fürs Englisch und das Leben.

Grammatik & Ausdrücke im Kontext

"I just felt like a failure": Die Struktur "feel like + Nomen" drückt ein Gefühl oder eine Vorstellung aus. Nutze sie, um Emotionen zu beschreiben, z. B. "I feel like a winner" (Ich fühle mich wie ein Gewinner).
"I tried to stop putting so much weight on that sense of identity": "Put weight on" bedeutet, etwas wichtig nehmen. Übe diese Redewendung, um zu sagen, dass du etwas nicht überbewertest: "Don't put too much weight on his words" (Nimm seine Worte nicht zu ernst).
"As long as I'm living my truth, things will feel better": "As long as" (Solange) wird verwendet, um eine Bedingung zu stellen. Ein Beispiel: "As long as you practice daily, you'll improve" (Solange du täglich übst, wirst du besser).

Häufige Aussprachefallen

Um deine Englische Aussprache zu verbessern, achte auf folgende Wörter: - "Identity" (Identität): Die Betonung liegt auf der zweiten Silbe: /aɪˈdentəti/, nicht auf der ersten. - "Materialistic" (materialistisch): Achte auf die lange "i" im zweiten Teil: /məˌtɪriəˈlɪstɪk/, nicht "materialistik". - "Perception" (Wahrnehmung): Die "p" wird scharf gesprochen, und die letzte Silbe klingt wie "shn": /pərˈsepʃn/. Übe diese Wörter durch shadow speak – sprich sie direkt nach dem Video, um Rhythmus und Klang zu lernen.

Mit diesem Video lernst du nicht nur Englisch, sondern auch, wie man authentisch kommuniziert. Nutze es fürs Englisch lernen mit Videos und verbessere gleichzeitig dein Selbstvertrauen im Gespräch!

Grammatik in diesem Video

Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:

Struktur	Im Video
„Used to“ used to + Verb – eine frühere Gewohnheit oder ein Zustand, der nicht mehr gilt	used to struggle · used to interpret · used to it
Bedingungssätze if + Satz, will/would + Verb – eine Bedingung und ihre Folge	if I go to the gym I'll show
Present Perfect Continuous have/has been + -ing – eine Handlung, die früher begann und noch andauert	have been using · i've been using
Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist	have helped · I've gotten · has inspired

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
