I am so glad you could join us. I'm your host Mo Gaudet. This podcast is nothing more than a conversation between two good friends sharing inspiring life stories and perhaps

0:16.4

some nuggets of wisdom along the way.

0:20.3

This is your invitation to slow down with us.

0:26.0

Welcome to Sloemob. Because you have been so kindly listening to or watching slow-mo, I have had the opportunity

0:41.0

over the last three years to at least once a week meet an incredible

0:46.1

0:52.0

taught me something and hopefully gave you the opportunity to slow down and

0:56.5

reflect on something that you normally don't give the time to.

1:00.1

Of those, some that came early in our work with Slowmo, were conversations that didn't get as many viewers or downloads, as they deserve because basically some people joined later.

This is also our way of slowing down a little bit further, looking back into something that was wonderful,

1:57.6

instead of constantly aiming for the new.

2:01.2

I hope you will enjoy every one of those and I hope at the same time you will give yourself

2:06.1

the opportunity to reflect back on all of the other conversations that we have enjoyed together

2:12.3

in the last three years and perhaps look back at some of them and enjoy those two.

2:17.0

I'm almost certain you will enjoy those. They were not only some of my favorite conversations on slow mow, but some of my favorite

2:26.3

conversations, period. Today I want to bring to you near E.
