Hello everybody, happy new year and welcome back to the Balance Bond podcast, Solon Fire.

I'm going to keep today's intro pretty short and sweet because I have gotten some mixed

reviews about the longer intros.

Although when I asked you guys on Instagram, people who listen to the podcast, do you like

the longer intros or the shorter intros?

About 95% of you said the longer intros, so I'm still going to give my life updates.

I'm just going to keep them a little bit shorter because I do have these incredible guests

that have so much to say.

But I thought that I would take this brief intro to explain a little bit deeper about why

I started this podcast so that the people who have left reviews asking why I talk so much

during the podcast and don't just let my guest talk is because it's meant to be

conversation.

So I want to share myself with you guys on this podcast.

That's why I started it and I thought in conversation with my friends and people who inspire

me and fellow entrepreneurs, fellow bloggers, people who I love, people in my family, you

can see what a conversation in the life is like.

And also, of course, learn from my incredible guests.

But this isn't the kind of podcast where I simply interview guests and I keep really quiet

and I don't share much because the whole purpose for this is to share more with you and

to interact more with you and to communicate and connect.

So I just wanted to clear that up in case you thought that I was not letting my guests

talk enough or not letting them share enough.
