0:00.0	Welcome to the Black Girl Burnout podcast, Kelly here.
0:12.9	Today I want to start by asking you a question.
0:16.3	What would your life be like if you had nothing to overcome?
0:23.3	Now, this isn't my question. I didn't create this all on my own. This is a question a friend was asked when she joined up with like a program
