| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Black Girl Burnout podcast. Kelly here. And we are continuing with our special |
| 0:14.2 | month of activity themed New Year Healed Me. Today's guest is April Smith. She's the founder of one day and creator of the daily |
| 0:22.7 | execution planner. April is a multi-passionate entrepreneur and project manager for nearly a decade. |
| 0:28.9 | She deeply understands the transformative value of organizing, tracking, and reflecting on your goals. |
| 0:34.5 | She knows that to see any vision through, there has to be a commitment to consistency |
| 0:38.8 | and a measure of success is needed. She discovered planners while working her way through |
| 0:44.0 | business school. We have a great episode for you today all about taking last episode's information |
| 0:50.6 | from Erica, vision boarding, and putting it into action. In this episode, April walks us |
| 0:57.2 | through how to goal set, how to think about things in 90-day increments. And again, if you haven't |

| 1:09.8 | it's in the show notes. And it's in the |

| 1:38.9 | April, I'm so excited to have you on the podcast and particularly to be a part of this New Year Healed Me campaign |

| 1:52.5 | And what better way to do that than to goal set, goal plan, and execute those goals in a way |
| 1:59.4 | that doesn't, you know, make us push or hustle, but |
| 2:02.4 | still gets things accomplished. And so you are on my mind to have this conversation with. And so before |
| 2:08.7 | we get into all that, because I'm really excited to jump in, I just want to pause and ask, |
| 2:13.1 | how are you doing? I'm doing okay. I'm doing here with you. It makes it all a cherry on top, so I'm just happy to be here. Yeah. Oh, I'm doing okay. I'm doing okay. Being here with you. It makes it all the cherry on top, |
