0:00.0	Welcome to Soul and Witt. I'm Courtney. And I'm Bailey. We are the mother-daughter duo here to make you laugh, grow, and feel more connected to your favorite things.
0:39.3	Hi, Mom. Hi, Bailey. How are you doing today? I'm doing good. I'm in shock that we are recording an episode for November, 2022. Oh, my gosh. The year's over. Well, there's still another month and three weeks, but still, like,
0:43.9	it feels dead to me. I don't know what happened to 2022. I mean, we're always surprised when the year goes by, but this year especially, I feel like every year I say this, but it, like, I just
0:49.2	have so little concept of time. Like, 2010 feels like five years ago. It was not.
0:58.8	Rude news for both of us. And some things that happened last week feel like they
1:03.3	happened 20 years ago. I just don't know how to measure time anymore. Yeah. I don't,
1:08.8	I don't do it anymore. Okay.
1:11.0	Yeah.
1:15.0	Isn't it just like as you get older, the years get shorter because you have more reference points?

1:24.5	Okay, that still sounds so long to me.
1:26.7	But like, I understand now that that's just
1:29.7	four sets of 10 minutes. So it's totally fine. As a kid, that was not happening. Four sets of 10
1:36.5	minutes. Is that how you rationalize the 40 minute drive? You should see me rationalize things like
1:41.4	that or like, okay, there's 40 pages in this book, but if I just
1:45.4	read 10 pages at a time, then it's like, I'll do the same thing. Sometimes if I'm working out,
1:50.9	I'll like, I'll go after I've gone 15 minutes, I'm like, okay, I only have to do that three more
1:55.0	times. Yeah, 45 minutes is three blocks of 15 minutes, for sure. Well, let's start with our favorite things.
2:02.7	Okay.
2:03.2	I have a book that just came out in October.
2:06.8	It's called Tranquility by Tuesday.
