Well, hello! Thank you so much for joining me in Part 4, dude. This is Part 4 of the Declutter

Project and you are Kickin' Butt.

Welcome to the Shaline Show. Shaline is a New York Times best-selling author, celebrity

fitness trainer, and obsessed with helping you live your dream life.

So maybe you've joined us on Part 4 and you're wondering if you need to listen to Part

30 days, it's not 14 days. It's about figuring out where that's stored in your brain and how to

create that memory, that automatic pilot reaction when you're triggered by something. So it's
