| 0:00.0 | Hi y'all, it's Dana. If you're listening to older episodes, I am coming to you from the future. |
| 0:04.9 | April of 2023 to be exact, I'm so excited that my new podcast host allows me to do this. |
| 0:11.1 | Since I know many of you who listen are listening to earlier episodes or you're skipping around, |
| 0:16.2 | and I want to be sure that you hear the news that the Take Your Houseback course is on sale |
| 0:22.1 | through May 3rd for $94. People have been emailing saying, what is it going to go on sale again? |
| 0:28.0 | This is when, right now. Okay, I am so proud of this course that I created with Dawn from the |
| 0:33.2 | minimal mom and cast from Clutterbug who are both fantastic YouTubers. Y'all, the changes |

| 1:35.6 | Maybe I should have written it down on a checklist. Anyway, but it is. I mean, it's just something I |
| 1:40.0 | honestly think about a lot. I think about checklists because, okay, actually, I do remember what it was, |
| 1:46.9 | and it was seeing a super crazy detailed checklist. I think it was an ad for somebody else's |
| 1:58.5 | product that they put out. That's great because it obviously helps a lot of people. There's a lot |
| 2:04.6 | of people who love that. My initial reaction was, that would solve all my problems. Then I thought, |
| 2:12.8 | wait, I've tried that before and it never has solved all my problems. I need to go back to what I |
