0:00.0	Hello and welcome to best laid plans.
0:11.0	This is your host Sarah Hart Unger and this is a podcast where we talk all things planning
0:15.2	and planning adjacent.
0:17.1	I have for you today our February Q&A episode.
0:20.8	I can't believe it's already February and full

1:14.8	the rituals and the things I put into place are serving me well. And I hope that is true for many

1:24.5	some questions. And I'm going to begin with a listener update.
1:28.1	I'm going to read what she wrote.
1:29.7	She says, I heard you address my question about household projects on the podcast and decided
