This is Let's Be Clear with Shannon Dorney.

Hey, Let's Be Clear family.

I'm Maria Menuno's, your guest host here today.

to be with you guys today. I think first I'll kind of give you a little background on what's gone on

with me so you understand some of the things that I'm going to share with you that will hopefully
