0:00.0	Well, hi everybody. This is Heidi St. John. You guys have found me at the Off the Bench podcast.
0:05.2	Thank you for listening. Today I'm going to take the balance of my time and it continued to answer
0:10.8	questions from listeners and there are a lot of really great ones in the Q today. Stick around.
0:15.5	I think you're going to be encouraged.
0:17.2	All right. So yesterday I sort of took a little bit of a break from answering your questions to
0:30.8	address all the things that are happening in the news. You almost can't keep up with the insanity
