0:00.0	You're listening to Satellite Sisters. What's a Satellite Sister? The person you call
0:09.0	when the best thing in your life happens or the worst. The person that gets you up gets
0:13.2	you going and gets you through. And every once in a while changes your mind. This podcast
0:18.4	is part pep talk, part weekly check in. Like grabbing coffee with a friend. Thanks for

0:29.0	You're listening to Satellite Sisters and we're happy to have you here today. I'm Leandle
