0:00.0	Hey guys welcome back to thick and thin with me Katie Bilotti and happy
0:19.4	Christmas Eve if you're listening to this the day that it drops. I have been pre-recording like crazy
0:25.5	trying to get everything done before I officially take off for the holidays. It's interesting
0:31.2	because as a self-employed person you know you kind of have to make your own off days and your own schedule and things like that and it always gets tricky especially when you do lifestyle content for a living because your life tends to blend into your work

1:39.7	Just imagine Kagnay West's gold digger playing somewhere softly in the distance as I'm speaking.
1:45.9	But in all seriousness, I have been giving the future a lot of thought recently, and it probably
1:50.2	is something to do with the fact that this year has definitely been a weird one, one for the books,
1:55.2	will always look back on 2020 and likely 2021 and think about what we're going through right now and how weird it was.
2:02.0	And so I think a lot of us are kind of
