0:00.0	Hey, this is John Gordon with Positive You. And today, my guest is Jamie Villalovos. Jamie, how
0:14.3	you doing? I'm doing great. I'm so excited to be on with you today. It's great to have you. Did I
0:19.2	pronounce your name right? Villalovos. That's right. I love it. So you have this new book that you wrote
0:26.0	called Happy and Strong, right? Can you talk about that? Yeah. So the book just launched. It's
0:32.8	doing great. And you know, I wasn't planning on writing a book. It was kind of born during the

1:48.5	able to chase their biggest dreams, but enjoy it, enjoy the journey and be happy when they get there.
1:55.5	You know, what good would it be to make millions of dollars if when you get there, your kids don't
2:01.6	want to talk to you and your divorced or your ruined your health? And so I feel that success is
2:09.9	kind of having all of those things, being able to have your faith, your family, your wellness,
2:15.9	and again, be fulfilled and not just, again, financially successful.
