Hi @Rev_Devan, you probably already know this, but just in case…
disabling lazy loading only helps if the widget displays above the fold. If it’s below the fold, it will have the opposite effect.
One thing you may want to try until staff returns on Monday is the thread from last month that talked about a substitute script for the widget. But again, this only helps if the content is below the fold. Here’s a link to my experience using the alternate script. You can read through the posts if interested. There’s also something you can try which works regardless of where the widget appears on the page: How to reduce page loading time
HTH!
