0:00.0	failing is something that we're going to do for the rest of our lives, and it's a skill,
0:04.1	just like learning how to play the piano, just like learning how to dance ballet,
0:08.4	like learning how to fail, and how to pick yourself up is a skill that you need to practice.
0:14.4	Welcome to the new Balance Bites podcast. I'm your host, Liz, a nutritional therapy practitioner,
0:20.0	and best-selling author bringing you candid, myth-busting, and thought-provoking conversations about
0:25.2	food, fitness, and life. Remember, the information in this podcast should not be considered personal,

1:44.4	Plus, organized grocery lists, a step-by-step meal prep plan, and really simple dish day
1:50.5	instructions for how to quickly finish the meal when I'm ready to serve it. And I can get all the
1:56.4	prep work done in about an hour, which without a solution like this is usually how much time I spend
2:02.1	sitting there, wishing I didn't have to do any of this at all. And this way, instead of a giant
