0:00.0	Welcome to the Black Girl Burnout Podcast.
0:12.6	I'm so excited to talk to you about today's guest.
0:16.5	Our guest is Brianna Holt, an author, writer, and reporter who's just released a brand new book
0:22.8	called In Our Shoes on being a young black woman in a not-so post-racial America.
0:29.5	Brianna has spent years covering identity and race and culture for outlets like The New York Times,
0:35.1	GQ, The Cut, Complex, and many, many more.

1:34.8	In Our Shoes is her first book, but the first book, I'm sure, of many more thought pieces from
1:41.2	this incredible woman.
1:42.5	We have a great conversation this week,
1:45.3	and it all kicks off and starts with her talking about what brought her to writing in our shoes,

1:56.6	struggle and opting out of burnout. I can't wait for you to hear this interview. Let's not wait
