| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone, it's me, Chelsea Fagan, your girl, founder and CEO of the Financial Diet, |
| 0:06.0 | and woman who loves to talk about money. |
| 0:09.0 | And something that you might not know about me, well, two things you might not know about me. |
| 0:13.0 | One is that every so often, not, I would say not more than like twice a year, I work with private clients |

| 1:15.3 | disconnect between the teachers who are instructing the children and the parents who are |
| 1:20.5 | oftentimes not super well equipped to interact with those teachers. |
| 1:24.4 | But the other thing you might not know about me is that my mother is actually a career |
| 1:28.3 | a public school teacher. |
