0:00.0	Welcome to the Shameless Mom Academy.
0:06.0	I'm your host, Sarah Dean, and I'm here to give you and other passionate, dedicated moms
0:10.6	the tools you need to bridge the gap between motherhood and living the life of your dreams.
0:15.2	I'm also here to help you be a little more shameless every day, because if you aren't building
0:19.7	a life you're extraordinarily
0:20.8	proud of, what kind of legacy are you building? So let's dive in. Hello, shameless moms. So happy
0:28.8	to be here with you today. I am one day out from going on a girl's trip. I'm going to Austin tomorrow.
0:36.2	It's supposed to be 90 degrees and thunderstorms
0:38.4	the whole time I'm there. So how's that for a mommy vacation? I'm looking forward to getting
0:43.5	away. It occurred to me that this is probably the first time I haven't planned my own vacation
0:49.2	maybe ever in my life. I mean, like since my mom planned things for our family when I was

1:06.5	vacations. I actually really love planning vacations. So for this, it was just like, buy a plane ticket,
1:11.2	meet us at this hotel, and it'll be really fun. But like I said, I'm used to being the boss and I'm not
1:16.6	the boss in this situation. So I'll have to report back and let you know how that goes. It'll be fun,
1:20.8	though. It's going to be with a really great group of girls. And even in thunderstorms, I think we'll be able to have a great time. And I've never been to Austin. I've been to Texas, but not to Austin.
1:29.2	I've heard it's really cool, especially for people like Seattleites who I've heard
1:32.8	there's some similarities between the cities.
1:34.3	So I'm excited to check all that stuff out.
1:37.2	I've heard there's really good food.
