Hi guys and welcome back to Adulting. This week I'm joined by Sophie Hagen.

0:13.3

Oh hello! I was like, oh I was listening to it in my head. I was like, oh that's great

0:18.4

for us. Great for us. I'm so excited to have Sophie on as a guest. She's actually one of

0:22.6

the people that I've always wanted to have on. So just to have you in the flashes,

0:25.9

really exciting. Do you want to introduce yourself as who you are and what you do? Yeah, I'm
