0:00.0	Welcome to the Balance Black Girl Podcast. We're putting Black Girl Magic in motion.
0:07.0	This show is dedicated to reinventing wellness for women of color.
0:11.0	I'm your host Lestrandra Alfred.
0:15.0	Hello there, welcome to Balance Black Girl podcast.
0:19.0	My name is Les, I am the host of Balance Black Girl and I am honored to have you joining me today
0:26.0	tuning into this episode. If you're listening to this episode on the day that it is
0:30.5	released happy Friday at least as happy of a Friday as we can currently get.
0:36.5	I know this is different new episodes usually come out every other Tuesday it has been a hot
0:42.3	minute since we've done a Friday episode. I don't
0:45.4	think I've done one since I retired the feel-good Friday episodes last year, but I have
0:52.4	been feeling called to do something a little bit different.
0:59.2	If you normally listen to the podcast, you know that this is an interview style show that I really

2:07.8	I just haven't had it. I haven't had the energy to do it at the volume that I normally do. Now do not get me wrong. I love it. I have plenty more interviews coming up for you all that
2:16.3	have been recorded and are in the works however it takes a lot of energy and it is energy that I am happy to spend because sharing
2:26.9	these women's stories with you are 100% worth it.
2:32.4	But I kind of wanted to mix it up a little bit. I'm kind of wanting to add some things that feel a little bit more off the cuff that feel a little bit less interviewee and just feel feel like down-home conversations with some people in my life who are willing to come on.
