0:00.0	What's up, Batty Bees? I'm Brianna, mom, wife, serial entrepreneur, and host of the badass basic bitch podcast. Each week, I sit down with a seemingly ordinary woman who's doing extraordinary
0:23.6	things and I get to share her story with you. So let's go. Buckle up as we're going to get real
0:30.3	and dive into the shit nobody talks about. Welcome to the Batty B Club. Okay, I actually need some
0:37.4	help. And that was because when I became a
0:41.7	therapist, they were kind of like, you get to choose your schedule. Big yikes for someone with ADHD,

1:50.0	much for having me. Why don't you tell our listeners a little bit more about you, who you are and what you
1:55.8	do? That was a great introduction. I just listening to you list all of the things. I'm like, wow, I am busy.
2:04.1	I think that's definitely a part of my ADHD is that every day I have a new idea and I have to stop myself from following through on each and everyone.
2:13.2	So primarily right now, I am an ADHD coach and a therapist and a content creator. So those are the
2:20.3	things that I mainly do. And I really started it because I saw that when I was working,
