0:00.0	It's about time because we're going there. With the new year looming in the foreground and us walking through the holiday season together, I am so excited because today I'm joined with my co-host, Ritchie Peachy Pumpkin Pie, the cutest dog in the world as we talk about our word for the year. Well, friends, welcome to another episode of We're Going There. I am your host, Bianca Wattis, and as mentioned, I am with my co-host today, Ritchie,
0:24.8	my sweet angel of a dog.
0:27.3	And the set is a little bit different today because the offices are in the progress of building out a studio.
0:33.9	And so the amazing guys came to my house and we get to be in my living room and so welcome to my house
0:40.7	welcome to my living room we're going to sit across with each other today and have a conversation
0:44.1	on one of my favorite things to talk about and that is hearing from god okay i know might feel a
0:49.1	little overwhelming bear with me i like to have a word for the year. And this word for the year, there's nothing
0:55.6	magical or mystical about it. It's simply a way to calibrate our hearts. It is a North Star.
1:01.5	It is a barometer. When life gets a little helter-skilter, when things go a little left,
1:06.5	when we're expecting them to go right. This word for the year is our anchor as we move through the

1:15.6	walk us through a practice that I have done for the last, I want to say four years because the
1:21.0	podcast is four years old. Honestly, friends, for those that have been here for the beginning,
1:26.2	can I just pause and say thank you
1:27.8	it has been an honor and privilege to journey with you through this entire process when I started the
1:33.1	podcast never in a million years would I think that we would still be here today and that content would
1:37.7	still be coming forth but for those that are listening for those that are sharing for those that are
1:40.9	subscribing thank you and for those that listen to the ads in the podcast, can I say thank you? We generate no money to do this podcast. And so when you listen to
1:48.9	ads, hey, that helps the podcast go further, farther and faster. So thank you, friends. I appreciate
1:53.6	you. Okay, getting back to the word for the year. What does this look like? Well, this conversation
1:59.1	started because I was talking to a couple of my friends
2:01.8	and I had mentioned, oh, yeah, yeah, my word for the year. And they paused me and said, wait,
