| 0:00.0 | When was the last time you set aside time to think on your life, to ask the juicy questions, |
| 0:09.2 | to listen for guidance, to make really great plans. If you're feeling stuck or you feel like |
| 0:19.6 | your life is not heading in the right direction, then it's important that you take time to think |
| 0:28.2 | on your life. And that's what this episode is all about, so let's dive in. |
| 0:34.6 | Welcome to the School of Self-Image, where personal development meets style. Here's your hostess, |
| 0:40.5 | master life coach, Tanya Lee. Hello, my beautiful friends. How are you feeling? |
| 0:49.7 | I am feeling really relaxed. I just spent the last hour journaling about my life. |
| 0:56.5 | I've been spending time thinking on my life, which is very important for us all to do. |

| 2:22.0 | Which if you haven't done that in a while, it can be scary what's in there. But this is why I feel |
