0:00.0	Hi, this is Janet Landsfury. Welcome to Unruffold. I'm so excited because I have the honor of
0:09.0	an interview today with one of my idols, Maggie Dent from Australia. She is a parent education
0:17.0	icon. If you haven't heard of her, you should definitely become acquainted. She has written
0:23.5	11 books about parenting. And the most recent is out right now in Australia and in e-book in the
0:31.5	US and it's called Mothering Our Boys. It's about building a strong connection with our
0:37.5	sons, understanding them, seeing through their eyes a bit better, so that we can have empathy
0:44.5	and compassion and build the kind of relationship that we dream of having with our sons.
0:53.5	Summer is fast approaching and it's going to be a hot one, so hydration is more important than ever.

1:21.5	hydrates twice as fast as plain water, has more electrolytes than even traditional sports drinks, and five
1:27.5	essential vitamins. It's totally convenient. You can carry liquid IV sticks in your purse or glove
1:33.5	compartment. And it comes in lots of great tasting flavors, including strawberry lemonade, which is my
1:39.5	favorite. In fact, I've already made two big orders. Non-GMO, gluten, soy, and dairy free with all natural
1:47.5	ingredients. You can grab your Liquid IV in bulk at Costco or get 20% off when you go to liquid
1:54.5	IV.com and use code UnRuffled at checkout. That's 20% off anything you order when you shop
2:02.5	better hydration today using the promo code UnRuffled at liquid IV.com. Welcome Maggie.
2:12.5	Thank you, Janet. I have followed you for a very long time. This is a mutual admiration society. I think what you
2:20.5	would find those who dive into the book, that it comes from an incredibly respectful place. And I think that's
2:28.5	where we get confused. Sometimes we know as gender, we're more in light than we are different. We get that. But
2:34.5	there for a while, it was politically incorrect to talk about this like differences. But as the statistics keep
