| 0:14.8 | lucky. I am sitting here with Minaj Diaz. Hi. I'm so excited you're here. Hi. So you guys |
| 0:24.0 | have heard me ranting and raving about this app. I'm promoting it on this show. It's |
| 0:28.8 | the first app I've ever found that combines mindfulness, meditation, movement, and breathwork |
| 0:34.7 | in one place done so beautifully. And it's so hilarious to me Minaj. I've been using this |
| 0:40.8 | app for like six weeks now. And I'm listening to your, I'm like picking your classes. I'm picking |
| 0:46.9 | your breathwork classes. I'm doing your meditations. And then when this opportunity came and I heard |
