0:08.1	Are you feeling overwhelmed by too many calls in a day or you're constantly task switching or you're

0:25.8	into your ideal month and protect that time. I think you'll really enjoy this discussion today
0:32.6	between Elizabeth Cook and myself. Elizabeth is the accountability coach in our Six Figures Lab
0:38.5	Group coaching program, and she is so great at helping to uncover the details of how to create
