| 0:00.0 | Thank you so much for coming on the show. I appreciate it. My audience appreciates it. |
| 0:04.0 | I appreciate being here and having the opportunity to empower another thousands to empower |
| 0:09.6 | another thousands to be happy. So thanks for the opportunity. All right. Let's get into it, |
| 0:13.7 | man. So listen, it's no secret that you've coached and advised some of the highest performers |
