0:00.0	Welcome to the Boss Bay podcast. So this episode is with Erin Claire Jones. She is a leading expert in human
0:07.3	design. I was actually introduced to her when she joined our CEO Mama Mastermind. And through getting to
0:13.4	know her and learning about the work that she does, it's honestly brought so much awareness to me
0:18.9	about my own human design and how I can navigate my way through
0:23.0	the world, but also to my relationship and also to my team dynamics. We actually asked
0:29.6	Erin if she'd come in and lead a session with the boss with team, which was incredible because
0:33.8	she helped everyone to identify their human design and how we all work together
0:38.3	best and how we can all fulfill our own potential using human design. It was phenomenal. So she came
0:44.2	back on the podcast for the second time, this time to talk all about her brand new book, which is
0:49.2	how do you choose a human design guide for what's best for you at work in love and in life. I love it. It's
0:56.3	such a good practical book. And we also just dive into the practicalities of actually launching a
1:02.0	book while you're postpartum and you have a baby and a toddler and all the things that I'm going to
1:07.3	find out firsthand next year. So I selfishly also wanted to ask her a lot of those
1:12.1	real questions. So with that, I hope you enjoy this episode. Erin, welcome back. Thank you so much.
1:19.7	I'm so happy to be here. Give me a quick life update since the last time you were here. Was it a year
1:25.0	and a half ago? Probably, if not more, but yeah, probably a year and a half ago.
1:29.7	Well, let's see, I had another baby who is now seven months old, another girl, and I wrote a
1:36.6	book, and now the book is out in the world.
1:39.4	So it's been a lot of birthing and a lot of behind the scenes figuring things out, you know, and this is the year where it's like, oh, the baby's out, the book is coming out, but it's been a lot of birthing and a lot of behind the scenes figuring things out, you know, and this is the
1:45.4	year where it's like, oh, the baby's out. The book is coming out. But it's been a time. I feel like
1:49.3	we're on such similar timelines because I think our second baby will be around seven months when
1:54.9	I'm fully in the book launch cycle because I pushed everything back. So just tell me everything.
