0:00.0	The following podcast is a Dear Media production.
0:05.8	In a world of ever-changing wellness trends and information, what does it mean to truly be well?
0:12.2	I'm Ariel Laurie and I'm going to explore this with you.
0:16.0	I am bringing you candid conversations that will equip you with everything you need to live your best life
0:21.2	and look good doing it. Think of Well is your go-to resource for all of the latest in wellness
0:26.1	and me as your internet bestie. Well, let's get into it. Hi, everybody, welcome to the show.
