0:02.4	Whenever I share blog tips and all the things with the YouTube and the Instagram,
0:07.2	I did not start this until I was 30 years old.
0:11.1	I spent my whole 20s having babies learning how to make bread so close, you know,

1:42.4	talk about things that we're doing, things that we're learning.
1:46.0	But I really originally created this podcast space for a place to share deeper, more things in depth that I share on my YouTube channels with the same
1:55.7	kind of concepts but more in depth and after a year I felt like I had said it all now I
