| 0:21.0 | insights that you can apply in your own life. I'm your host, Kirst and Sarty. Now let's get to it. |
| 0:29.6 | Hi, here we go again. Me talking to you and you enjoying every second of it. And I hope you're excited because today I got a good one for |
| 0:40.1 | you. I'm talking about brain chatter about food. So many thoughts about food and eating. And we're |
