Welcome to the Life Coach School Podcast, where it's all about real clients, real problems,

0:14.2

and real coaching. And now your host, Master Coach Instructor Brookestio.

0:22.1

Okay, my friends, we have another amazing guest today. You're welcome.

0:26.9

Um, this topic is amazing. I had asked who wanted to be on the podcast, and she presented this

0:34.4

topic. I absolutely loved it. Welcome, Dr. Tangi to the podcast. Thank you so much, Brook. I'm so
