| 0:00.0 | Happy, happy holidays, Brown Ambition fam. It's Mandra here. As you guys know, Tiff and I are taking a little |
| 0:06.8 | break before the new year, but we've still got you covered with some of our favorite |
| 0:10.6 | Brown Ambition moments from 2021. All throughout this month, we're looking back at memorable |
| 0:15.9 | conversations and breaking down the most important lessons we've learned this year. |
| 0:21.5 | We can't thank you enough for sticking by us in what has become one of our biggest years for the show ever. |
| 0:28.7 | So many amazing memories from this year, and I cannot wait to revisit some of them with all of you guys, our beloved BA fam. |
| 0:36.1 | Wishing you and yours a beautiful holiday season, and thank you again for all the support. Hey, BAFam, it's Mandy. |

| 1:47.2 | regular show, though, I wanted to go ahead and share with you guys an amazing conversation that I had |
| 1:52.6 | last week when we were off with the CEO and co-founder of an organization based in Brooklyn, New York, |
| 1:58.5 | called Higher Heights for America. This is a nonprofit that |
