0:00.0	Welcome to Care More Be Better, a podcast for people like you who care about the social impact of conscious companies and everyday heroes.
0:09.7	Hear inspiring stories from those who put people in planet before profit and personal gain.
0:15.2	You'll learn how you can make a difference, vote with your dollars, and get involved today.
0:20.1	Here's your host, Karina Belizey.
0:25.1	Hello, fellow do-goaters and friends. I'm your host, Karina Belizzi, an activist and cause
