Hello, everyone, it's your real Cheeky's and you've

0:21

reached the voicemail box for Dear Cheeky's.

0:23

I'm here to give you advice on anything and

0:25

everything you need help with. Maybe you're going

0:27

through a breakup, maybe you're having issues with your family,

0:30

or maybe you need help figuring out how to balance

0:32

your checkbook or how to start a business,

0:34

whatever the cases, I want to hear from

0:37

you. Remember these are my thoughts

0:39

and opinions. And if you're suffering from an issue

0:41

or hardship, you should seek help from a qualified

0:43

professional. All right, Now go ahead

0:45

and leave your question at the sound of the beeB, Hi.

0:49

Cheeky's, I'm just wondering what happened

0:51

to the lady that used to clean your house

0:53

when you guys had the big mansion and

0:55

then see.

0:56

No, oh, Jesse, that's

0:58

a different question. Okay.

1:02

So Melele, we used to call her Melele. Her

1:04

name is Mercedes. You

1:06

know what.

1:07

We talked to her, Johnny and I talked to her from

1:09

time to time. We just, honestly,

1:11

thank goodness. She made our life so much easier. When we

1:13

lived in Sino, it was a huge house, so she helped

1:15

us out a lot, and when

1:18

we moved and I moved into a smaller place.

1:20

To be honest, I really couldn't afford it anymore,

1:23

like by myself. So I

1:25

had to just let her go. But we're

1:27

still cool. But that's what happened. I

1:29

mean, I've thought about bringing her back here and

1:31

there. To be honest, I'm not gonna lie because Rabbi,

1:34

Yeah, but she made my life so much easier. But

1:36

but yeah, that's that's what happened with her. Now,

1:39

now you got me thinking I've been looking

1:41

for someone, so maybe I should call her.

1:43

Thank you, Jesse. You just like little light

1:46

bulb in my mind. Okay,

1:50

guys, so our next question comes from Lisa.

1:53

My question for you is what

1:56

was the toughest thing that you have gone

1:58

through in life and

2:00

what was the lesson that you learned from

2:03

it.

2:04

I know you've been through a lot in life, and

2:06

I don't know. I feel like we always learn from each other's

2:08

stories what we get

2:10

through and how we get through them. So

2:13

I know right now a lot of people are living some

2:15

very tough moments. I'm sure they

2:18

would love to hear from you.

2:20

Lisa. Oh wow, I love

2:22

this question.

2:24

Yes, I have been through quite

2:26

a bit. I wouldn't even

2:28

know. I think if I can think back

2:30

and think of what really

2:33

threw me to my knees

2:35

and to the floor, I would have to say it

2:37

was my divorce. And

2:39

I know it sounds crazy because obviously I went through sexual abuse

2:42

with my dad and that was tough, and I lost my mom

2:44

and that was very tough. But when I lost my

2:46

mom, I had the kids

2:48

and my siblings. They were so young and they needed

2:50

me, so that kept me going. So it's like I

2:52

wanted to mourn, but I

2:55

had to be strong. That was very painful.

2:57

It was very very painful. But I would have

2:59

to see say that my divorce was because

3:01

not necessarily of who I was losing.

3:04

I felt just disappointed. I felt

3:07

vamboozled in a way. It was

3:09

just tough. So it's really hard because I feel

3:11

like God that goes at DNA like the

3:14

lesson, you know, it has a lesson that I learned from

3:16

everything. But I think, damn,

3:20

you really got me here because I'm like, damn,

3:22

no, I don't want to take anything away from every

3:25

situation, you know what I mean, Because obviously losing my

3:27

mom is very hard, and what happened

3:29

with my dad. But I think what I

3:31

learned from the separation and

3:33

my divorce was not forcing

3:35

things like listening to my gut,

3:38

listening to that sixth sense

3:41

that we, especially women

3:43

have, and I ignored it. I ignored it

3:46

for the wrong reasons. And I tried

3:48

to fit my foot in a shoe that didn't fit, if

3:50

that makes sense. And now

3:52

that I have healed, and now that I have forgiven

3:54

him completely, it's not really him, you

3:57

know what I mean, Like he showed himself in

3:59

the beginning. I just tried my best.

4:01

I can change them, I can try to change them, and it just doesn't

4:03

work. They have to also be willing. So

4:06

I'm not mad at him anymore, like I accept and

4:08

it just wasn't a fit for me, you know. And

4:10

I put myself in that situation to be honest, and

4:13

I knew maybe I shouldn't get married,

4:15

but I did it. I wasn't listening to all of the

4:18

red flags that were being shown,

4:20

and I wasn't listening to the signs that God

4:22

was giving me. So that's what I learned to

4:24

really just not ignore reflags, listen

4:27

to my intuition, and take

4:29

action and not be afraid you know. So,

4:32

yeah, you really made me think they're thank

4:35

you for that, sending you a big

4:37

kiss, Lisa, and

4:43

now we're moving on to a question from.

6:55

isabel. Okay,

6:57

you guys, she was just asking what do I was

7:00

on my skin, you know, because she feels

7:02

that I have very nice skin. So thank you so much about that. But

7:05

she wanted to know, besides my skincare, what do

7:07

I use or what do I do? In reality, I

7:09

just use my skincare, I exfoliate, I wash my

7:11

face morning and night, especially when I have makeup on. I don't

7:14

sleep with my makeup. But yeah, I mean

7:16

I use my products, and I use the mask,

7:18

and I exfoliate and.

7:20

All that stuff. And botox, I told her because I like

7:22

botox. So that's it. That's really the

7:24

truth.

7:24

So is.

7:32

All right, guys. So our last question comes from Natalie.

7:36

I wanted to know how

7:38

do you leave a marriage of eight years.

7:41

We've been together for thirteen

7:44

years, married eight we

7:46

have four kids together. I

7:50

have myself have seven

7:52

kids in total. It is so hard

7:56

to just leave or

7:58

to just say I

8:01

don't want to be with you, I

8:04

don't love him anymore, I'm

8:06

not in love with him. I love him because

8:08

he's the father of my kids, but I

8:11

am not in love with him. One

8:13

of my daughters is sick. She got

8:15

really sick, and I

8:17

don't want to take that away from her now

8:20

that she really needs him like a

8:23

lot. I would just love.

8:26

Do you what should I do?

8:29

It is really hard. I don't know what

8:31

to do. No say, I guess if I

8:34

love you cheese?

8:36

Oh, Natalie.

8:37

This one is a toughie because

8:40

there's children involved, because you

8:43

know you have also a sick daughter, And I

8:45

wouldn't want to tell you, Okay, leave him. But

8:48

what I can tell you is you

8:50

can't make anyone happy, not

8:52

your husband, not your children, unless

8:55

you're happy. And if you're not happy, then

8:59

what do you doing?

9:00

You know what I mean?

9:01

As hard as it's going to be and as much as it's

9:04

going to hurt people, we can't

9:06

stay with people because we feel sorry

9:08

for them or because we feel bad, you know what

9:10

I mean. And I'm talking about your

9:12

husband, you know what I mean. Like, that's not a good reason

9:15

to stay with someone, or it's not a good reason to stay

9:17

with someone because of your kids. And

9:19

I'm telling you this because my grandmother

9:21

did that. She stayed with my grandpa, even

9:24

though you know he would

9:26

cheat and you know he was he did what he

9:28

did and she would She did it for the kids, you know.

9:30

And by the time she was like, Okay, the kids are old

9:32

enough and she left him, she

9:35

say, wow, where did my life go?

9:37

You know what I mean? So I don't know. I

9:39

mean, it's tough.

9:40

You got to think about that and sometimes just having an honest

9:43

conversation and just say, hey, I love you and

9:45

I think we'd be better as friends and co parenting.

9:47

And that doesn't mean that your daughter can't have her dad

9:49

in her life.

9:50

You know what I mean.

9:51

And also, if your kids are old enough, hey,

9:54

this is what's happening. Like, have an open conversation.

9:56

Once you have it with your husband first, then

9:58

you guys have it with the kids. Just say, hey, we're going to do

10:01

this, but we're still friends, we still love you. This doesn't

10:03

change anything or the love we have for you. But

10:05

this is going to make all of us happier. I

10:08

think having that solid conversation or

10:10

therapy. Have you guys tried therapy again?

10:13

I'm not sure why you fell out of love. I don't know if he's been

10:15

a good husband. I don't know if he like things have happened,

10:17

but you have to take all of that into account and obviously

10:19

maybe try therapy. Maybe once you guys have the conversation,

10:22

he's like, wait, what are you missing? Am I not giving

10:24

you enough?

10:25

Love?

10:25

Like if you are open with him, then maybe

10:28

you.

10:28

Guys can give the relationship a chance and

10:30

make changes, maybe go on date night,

10:32

you know, all those little things, like you have to figure out

10:34

where the issue is. And maybe

10:36

he's not giving you something that you're

10:38

desiring, but that can be fixable

10:41

if he's a good man. So there

10:43

are different things here, you know, So you got to really just

10:45

look at everything at every angle. But I

10:47

do suggest having an open and honest conversation,

10:49

as hard as that is. You have to

10:52

you have to be honest because then

10:54

you're doing a disservice for him. It's not fair to him

10:56

if you stay with him just because you feel bad or for the

10:58

kids, like, that's not fair. So that

11:01

is my solid and honest advice.

11:04

So I hope it helps Natalie, because you do sound

11:06

like you're in a pickle, you know, and

11:08

I get it. I hope I helped guys, And

11:11

thank you guys. So much for your questions.

11:13

Thank you Jesse, Lisa, Isabelle, and Natalie.

11:16

I really appreciate I hope, honestly, from the bottom

11:18

of my heart, I was able to help you guys. I

11:20

honestly love hearing from you guys. So keep the
