| 0:00.0 | Hello, WineAppers. My name is Jesse Mekeman. This is podcast number 534 for WineApp, |
| 0:09.2 | where we teach you four rules to help you stop paying your t-page. I could get out of debt |
| 0:12.7 | and save more money. Did you know that you could jump on over to TikTok and start to receive |
| 0:18.8 | financial advice and did you know that it wouldn't all be bad? Did you know that WineApp is flourishing |
| 0:25.0 | on TikTok? So today I have with me Sarah. She is a WineApp team member and heads up the, |
| 0:32.3 | how would we call it? She's kind of a social media head of our efforts in all things social |
| 0:39.1 | and Instagram, TikTok, the community, things like that. She specializes in the TikTok realm, |
| 0:46.1 | which as you'll find out, I wasn't always a believer. But Sarah joined WineApp about three years |
| 0:53.0 | ago. She has her own debt story and how WineApp changed her life. And I actually shouldn't phrase |
| 0:58.3 | it that way. I like it more when people say how they changed their life and WineApp kind of helped |
| 1:02.8 | along the way. But needless to say, she is one of us. And so I am pleased to bring with me on the |

| 1:33.3 | behind the scene. I mean, you were here. You just. Yeah, I missed the boat on that one. You missed |
| 1:37.3 | the boat. So now you're getting your whole your own episode all to yourself. You're hogging it |
| 1:42.4 | because you do something particularly, I almost said useful. Of course, it's useful. But |
| 1:48.5 | particularly unique here at WineApp. So intro intro everyone a little bit about yourself. |
| 1:55.2 | You know, high level WineApp story and then land where you've landed that's because that's |
| 2:00.4 | where we're going to sit here for a while. We're just going to talk about your specialty at this |
| 2:04.7 | point here at WineApp. Oh, absolutely. So I I'm a working mom at home school, both of our children. |
