0:00.0	Hey friends, I'm Jess Connolly. I'm an author, a coach, a Bible teacher, and a local church leader,
0:07.1	and I love talking to real people who know what it means to have full lives, but also want to walk in abundance.
0:14.5	This podcast is for you. It's not my podcast. It's ours. It's for people who crave lighthearted conversations and deeply spiritual truth.
0:25.0	It's for people who are busy, tired, waiting, growing, dreaming, working, or praying about what's next.

2:03.9	the episode, we did start talking a little bit about peptide therapy, meaning simaglutide,
2:10.3	meaning what many people would refer to as ozimic. And in the middle of the episode, she actually
2:16.9	shared some info with me that was
