0:31.5	Krista St. Germain.
0:34.0	Hey there, welcome to another episode of the podcast. If you have ever wondered why you are so
0:40.1	bothered by the idea of feeling angry or envious, if you have struggled to untangle your worth
0:48.3	from how much you get done, if you've had a hard time making peace with money or figuring out what you want in this new chapter of life, this episode is one you don't want to miss.

1:49.0	She was the chief content officer of Goop, and she also co-hosted the Goop podcast and the Goop Lab on Netflix.
1:56.1	You may have seen her in that show or heard her on that podcast.
1:59.9	She also has her own podcast called Pulling the Thread,
2:03.0	which I am currently binging until preparing for this interview. I didn't know her podcast existed.
2:09.5	And now that I'm listening, she has done some absolutely fascinating, thoughtful, eye-opening
2:16.0	interviews, and I'm excited to learn more from her. So I hope you
2:18.9	get a lot out of this podcast. I hope a lot of your behaviors make sense. And without further ado,
