0:00.0	What's up, yeah, fam? Today we're throwing it back to episode number 56, my first interview with
0:17.8	Heather Monaghan. Heather Monaghan is a certified girl boss. She's an entrepreneur,
0:22.8	keynote speaker, bestselling author, and a confidence expert. In 2022, she was named one of the top
0:28.6	50 keynote speakers in the world and her first book Confidence Creator is known to be one of the best
0:33.7	books of all time on confidence. As some of you guys may know, Heather is one of my
0:37.9	mentors. She's actually the person who pushed me to start Yap Media. Heather was my first ever client.

1:22.8	reminiscing right now, I remember I took this interview in a phone booth during lunch while working at Disney
1:29.5	streaming services. That's how hard I used to hustle. I used to carry all my equipment on the train,
1:35.1	break my back, guys, like 30 pounds of equipment. I'm a little girl, on the train for 45 minutes
1:41.5	standing up. And I used to be in the phone booth, 8 o'clock in the morning.
