0:11.9	Ah, the V.A. Q.A. y'all have no idea how self-conscious I am when I have to sing that song
0:17.0	by myself. But here I am riding solo for this week's edition of the V.A. Q.A.
0:23.7	I hope that's okay with y'all. I'm gonna take some really juicy career questions because I just
0:28.5	can't help myself when I sat down to choose questions today from our listeners. I was like,

1:33.6	Our first question comes from listener Elena. Elena, my heart goes out to you already.
1:39.1	But let's get into this. Elena says, how does one prepare financially for pregnancy and having
