| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Wellness and Wisdom podcast. My name's Josh Trent. Over the past eight plus years, |
| 0:06.4 | I've been asking myself the same question, and I still haven't failed in the answer, y'all. |
| 0:10.5 | That question is, how do I live my life well? It's a moving target. It always changes. And if you |
| 0:15.9 | share the same passion to answer that question as I do, Stick around if you want to check out one of our |
| 0:22.4 | other full-length guest episodes where I interview one of the brightest hearts and minds in our |
| 0:27.5 | world. Head over to any of our Tuesday shows. But before we do anything at all, I have a question for you. |

| 1:22.8 | often than not totally depleted, which leads to crankiness, frustration, and just a lack of ability to deal |
| 1:28.3 | with stress, not to mention exhaustion and fatigue stacked up at the end of a long day. |
| 1:32.6 | I've been doing this every night for almost three years now, where I take the full spectrum |
| 1:36.8 | with a tiny bit of THC, but there's also a broad spectrum hemp that our friends over at Cured |
| 1:41.7 | nutrition make that is 100% THC free. This is the pure daily |
| 1:46.0 | CBD mint, quick onset via sublingal dosing with a crisp mint flavor. If you're a shift worker or |
