0:08.9	easier by helping you master your time, organization, and productivity as a teacher. So as you all
0:15.4	know, a solo podcast means a week in the life. And for the month of January, it's all about starting fresh,
0:23.9	setting new goals. And for teaching on the double, it also means book review month. So every year for
