| 0:00.0 | Hey Deservyn Listeners, just me today. I thought I would answer some patron emails. This first email from anonymous patron she writes |
| 0:07.6 | My daughter is seven years old now my daughter is seven years old now, and almost always wants me to make choices for her |
| 0:16.4 | with things like which move she should make in a game, or which flavor of ice cream does she want? |

| 1:16.7 | She's like, no, you must make this choice for me. |
| 1:20.7 | You're also telling me that she's only with you in the summer and she's with her dad the rest of the year |
| 1:25.6 | and you don't really know how she is with her dad. So that kind of tells me that you're not in |
