0:27.7	So while they are busy making preparations, we're going to share with you an interview that
0:32.2	Jesse did recently on the Art of Being Well podcast with Dr. Will Cole. This is an interesting interview where Jesse

1:44.9	Can you explain that term?
1:46.8	Jesse, welcome to The Art of Being Well.
