| 0:00.0 | Welcome, welcome, welcome my loves. It's time for another episode of the Yoga Girl podcast conversations from the hearts. |
| 0:13.6 | I am sitting here right now in the middle of... |
| 0:20.5 | in the middle of what feels like the eye of the hurricane, you know, like the middle of the center of the vortex, |
| 0:27.8 | the quiet place in the midst of just a wild, wild time. And I can laugh about it now because it is |
| 0:39.2 | hilarious that I am where I am in this moment and I'm gonna and I'm gonna tell you all about it. |
| 0:48.0 | So where to begin? Okay, I think I should begin with this with this big thing. So the home course |
