0:00.0	What's up my friend? Welcome back to another episode of the Mark Roof podcast. You know,
0:14.6	this is such a pleasure and an honor for me to do. I get to dive really deep into people's
0:19.0	minds and hearts and understand them more fully as I do the beautiful, intentional work
0:27.2	of understanding myself more fully and internal of us doing that together. I think that's
0:32.7	the beautiful truth that is self-awareness and self-discovery is that our own internal
