Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome to Trust and Believe. I'm your host, Shanty, and today we are going to enhance your ability to trust and believe and how to be productive without boring yourself to death. And I know that sounds really crazy. And the reason why I'm excited today is because Tanya Dalton is here and she is going to let

you all know how you can thrive through your day through your life. We have some phrases
