[00:00:15] Bryan Carroll: Hello, hello and welcome back to the summit for a wellness podcast. It's been a little. Hasn't it? My last episode I published was about seven months ago. If I look back at it, and as you may have noticed, if you've been following me for a while, I took a much needed break.
I did 183 episodes of the podcast since 2017 with very minimal breaks, and it got to a point where, you know, I wanted to play around and do some other things. So if you are not following my YouTube channel, I have been going all in on YouTube over there. It's been a lot of fun.
