0:00.0	The following podcast is a dear media production.
0:05.0	Hi, I'm Sif Heider, the founder of Foray. I'm a wellness entrepreneur and digital creator,
0:10.8	and this is my show, The Dream Bigger podcast. Listen, I love dreaming big, but you know what I love
0:16.6	more? Actually having the resources to make those big dreams happen. And hey, dreams can sometimes
0:22.7	be private jets, but other times, they can look a little something like having the best skin
0:27.8	of your damn life, or starting a successful business, or delving into spirituality. So on this podcast,
0:35.2	I chat with experts and thought leaders from different fields about their
0:38.5	tips and tricks on doing exactly that. So let's get right into it.
0:46.3	Hello, hello, friends, and welcome back to another episode of the Dream Bigger podcast. Today, I

1:45.6	we're storing our food in. So this is a really interesting conversation, which I think you guys will
1:49.7	love. So with that, let's welcome Jordan to the Dream Bigger podcast.
1:55.0	Okay. So where I want to start this conversation is, can you explain why people should be paying attention to
2:03.2	their cookware? Because I feel like people have been out here using Teflon. And by the way,
2:09.2	this was Me Too for years until like maybe like five-ish years ago where I was like,
2:16.4	this is not good for my hormones.
