0:00.0	This is not fun. This is throwing my nervous system off. This is shaking my sense of control.
0:08.1	This made me question everything. This isn't just about thinking our way through and trying to be
0:13.7	positive. This is about how to return to trust when your body or your business or your
0:19.3	relationships feel threatened.
0:27.1	Hey, everyone.
0:28.1	Welcome back to the podcast.
0:29.4	It's time for another quickie because there's always time to fit in inspiration.
0:33.7	And if you have not gotten to try Glossi yet, I'm telling you, this is the craziest deal that you were ever going to get on something that's going to make you feel better than you even imagined. I think maybe for some of you've heard about Glossi and maybe you have not realized the impact that it's going to make on how you feel and also truly how your skin looks. So the ingredients in

1:53.4	I'm like, I knew if you tried it, it would change your life that much. It's making people feel
1:57.3	incredible. Okay, so I was just laughing with my assistant about the fact that when you
2:06.6	have a podcast, like, there's not days off. There's not weeks off. Like, I'm recording this the day
2:13.1	before it's going out. And there's days where I'm like, I do not know what I'm going to talk about
