| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Strong Women Podcast, where each week we explore a deeper understanding of the humanity, value, intellect, and creativity of women. |
| 0:11.0 | I'm Sarah Stone Street. |
| 0:13.0 | And I'm Erin Kunkel. Glad you're here. |
| 0:19.0 | Today on the Strong Women Podcast, Sarah and I are reflecting on our conversation with Katie Fouse. |
| 0:25.2 | Now, we don't always get to interview our guests live and in person, but it was so great to interview Katie in person. |

| 2:20.2 | And so Katie forces us to think about these issues objectively so that actually when these |
