| 0:00.0 | Hey guys and welcome back to the Dream Bigger podcast. If you're new here, I'm your host SIF and I'm the founder of Array. Let's get right into today's hot tip, which has to do with active wear. |
| 0:22.5 | So I am constantly on the hunt for cute active wear and I have found the perfect pair of |
| 0:27.4 | leggings from Lilia's active. It makes your ass look so good like I'm talking a real life peach |
| 0:33.8 | emoji. They're the scrunch leggings. I got them in mint green and the matching top two, |
| 0:38.8 | but I'm going to get them in every single color. So if you do get them, tag me on Instagram because I |
| 0:43.5 | want to see. So let's chat about today's guest, Wednesday Martin. Wednesday is a New York |

| 1:22.9 | I hope you guys learn from it and it inspires you to look into her work because it's super interesting. |
| 1:28.1 | So with that, let's welcome Wednesday to the show. |
| 1:32.2 | Hear me okay? |
| 1:33.7 | Yeah, actually the sound quality is amazing. |
| 1:36.0 | What mic are you using? |
| 1:37.3 | I feel like I need it for virtual recordings myself. |
| 1:39.7 | Yeah, it's really good. |
| 1:42.1 | I have a Yeti system, I think it's called. Okay, I got to get it. And this is actually not even as upgraded. There's one that has like, like a special green thing. And it's like a whole system that our podcast producer sent me that I haven't been able to set up because I'm in |
| 2:01.4 | Los Angeles. So this is just kind of like level one. It's not even that, um, sophisticated, |
