00:51 - Anne (Host)
Hey, hey, everyone, welcome to the VO Boss podcast and the Boss
Money Talk series. I'm your host, Anne Ganguza,z and today's show
is a very special crossover moment. I'm joined by my regular Boss
Money Talks co-host, Danielle Famble, financial strategist, voice
actor and the person who keeps our boss business brains sharp. Yay,
yay, hey, Anne, hey, and we're teaming up with the amazing Jennifer
Clark, a powerhouse voice actor and the host of the Human Kindness
at Work podcast. Today, we're going to talk about the power of
giving, how it fuels mental wellness, strengthens our brand and
builds real community in the voiceover world and beyond. And we'll
also be talking about 100 Voices who Care, which is a charitable
organization led by these two powerhouses that supports local
communities by combining donations to impact local charities. So
let's get into it, ladies. Thank you so, so much for joining me
today. Thanks for having us.
01:48 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Anne.
01:48 - Anne (Host)
Yay, I'm very, very excited to talk to you guys about this, because
I think this is something that it exists and every time there seems
to be, let's say, possible issues in the community or you know
people that need help, we get those GoFundMes, we get people who
talk about, you know, donating to charities and stuff like that,
and I think it's something that we need to really talk about more,
about how it can affect us in a positive manner and also how it can
affect our businesses. So let's maybe start by talking about the
psychology of donating and giving. And, jennifer, I know, in your
Human Kindness podcast you which is wonderful, by the way, guys,
you absolutely must tune into that you talk to people all the time
about giving and human kindness, and so what are your thoughts
about you know, what are the benefits of giving?
02:43 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Well, I'm not a doctor, but I can speak as someone who has been,
you know, intentionally giving for most of my life, and as I'm
talking to guests who are really active in their community and
showing human kindness at work. What I see in myself and in people
that I'm talking to is that it does something for our mental
health. It's really easy to look at the world, especially right
now, and you wake up every day and there's another crazy thing
going on. The world is constantly on fire and it's really easy to
get depressed fast. I mean, that's the fastest ticket to
depression, right? Just read the news, right and we lose sight of
all the really good things that are going on in the world. We lose
sight of the really good people that there are.
03:36
Being a part of giving is like linking arms and finding all those
people in your local community and the world at large that are
doing the work. They're trying to bring change, and it's really
uplifting. It's one of those things I don't know what it's called,
but it's kind of like when you're looking for something you know
when I wanted to buy a new vehicle, I had never seen anybody drive
this vehicle and then all of a sudden, when I was like I want a
Volkswagen Atlas. I saw it everywhere, Absolutely everywhere. And
it's the same with giving. When you look around and you're like
man, nobody is doing anything, Nobody is getting involved. In my
community, Nonprofits are suffering. But then you start getting
involved, you will make connections like crazy and you'll start
seeing all of the good and it is so uplifting. It really does
change your perspective.
04:34 - Anne (Host)
Oh, absolutely I can imagine, because, especially now, just with
the craziness, as you mentioned, of the world, and there's a lot of
times when I will open up my social media and then, oh my goodness,
just start reading or the news and I just start to feel hopeless
and what can I do? What can I do? First of all, to feel, because
it's making me feel bad and not like I don't know, functional in a
lot of ways, and I want to be able to help and I don't know how to
help. And I think this is one way that we can focus on something
that can absolutely make a big difference in our lives and, of
course, other people's lives as well, and to be able to connect
with people who are doing good in the world. That gives me
hope.
05:25 - Speaker 4 (Host)
And I think sometimes we look at problems and it's so overwhelming
and we think we have to reinvent the wheel, Like oh. I got to start
a nonprofit or fix the solution. There are already boots on the
ground that are doing work. So making a difference, giving of
yourself your time, your resources, your energy, doesn't have to be
hard. It's just a matter of finding something that you want to give
yourself to, and don't reinvent the wheel, just join into the good
work that's already going on. Yeah.
05:56 - Speaker 3 (Host)
It kind of reminds me of that.
05:57
I think the quote is attributed to Mr Rogers, or maybe Mr Rogers
did the quote from someone else, but the look for the helpers quote
I was.
06:07
I was speaking with a friend of mine who we were both sort of
commiserating about what was going on in the world and how
frustrating it is, you know, with money being pulled from certain
social organizations and that's their lifeline, and she worked for
one of those organizations and she was like of those organizations
and she was like you know, we can get upset about it, we can get
mad about it, we can feel hopeless about it. Or you can look for
the helpers. You can look for the people who are out there like you
said, jennifer boots, on the ground doing the good work, and it
changes your psychology to see, okay, these are the possibilities,
this is what's out there, these are the people who are already
doing the work. How can I help them? And when you can look at that
and you can find that pattern, recognition of people helping the
helpers, then you can figure out how you can put your hand behind
the plow and do something too.
06:58 - Anne (Host)
What do you think are the things that stop people from either
looking for this or from donating? And, of course, I think one of
the biggest things that people will say is but I don't have any
money. I don't have the money to donate. I can barely keep myself
surviving in today's world. What do you say to that?
07:17 - Speaker 4 (Host)
I would say we have to look beyond just finances. Financial giving
is really important, especially for local nonprofits, but we have
so much to give. You have to look at yourself as a whole. So you
have energy, you have time, which I think are your two greatest
resources, and you have money. You have relationships. So, looking
at those four areas of your life, where can you give in those time,
energy, money, relationships? And if you really are, I've been in
times of your life. Where can you give in those time, energy,
money, relationships? And if you really are, I've been in times of
my life I am strapped for cash. You know, my husband was unemployed
a few years ago, like it was super tight. So I get it. There are
legitimate times that you don't have any extra money, but you still
have time, energy relationships that you can give to.
08:19 - Anne (Host)
So I would say look at that whole picture, not just your pocketbook
their energy or their relationships because I love that you
mentioned relationships too, because connecting with people who may
have at the time the financial resources to help or other methods
and sources to help is also a wonderful way to give back.
08:40 - Speaker 3 (Host)
Yeah, social capital is a huge one because you never know what that
connection that you are making between two people or groups or
organizations, what that will do and that will yield in their
life.
08:54
So that's a huge one, even looking outside of the box.
08:58
I was just reading a story about a woman who was at a park with her
kids and noticed that there were some kids who didn't seem like
they were being attended to by an adult and, instead of making an
assumption, what she decided to do was essentially just take care
of those kids for a little bit of time.
09:16
And she was offering her time as a resource, as essentially child
care, and not making an assumption about what was happening with
the parents or anything else in their situation. She was like, ok,
I'm a safe place, I'm a safe person and I can provide some, some
respite for these parents who may be further away, who need a
little bit of time away. And she did that and that was her way of
giving back. And she, when she was explaining it to me, or when she
was explaining it and I was reading about that story it's not
something I think that people think about off the top of their head
Like, oh, this time that I have, or the ability to care, is a
resource like do an inventory and audit of what you've got, what
you are willing to give, what you are able to give, and then figure
out a way that you can creatively if it's not financially a
creative solution that you can provide for people who need
it.
10:11 - Anne (Host)
Yeah, I have a neighbor who literally just got an email this week.
She typically in the summer she goes to the East Coast to stay in
her home over there with other family and she offered her home to a
family who had just lost theirs in the fire and the recent fires in
California and you know a family that you know it was complete
strange to her. And she wrote us an email and said hey guys, I'm
offering my place for this family to stay for the month while I'm
away on the East Coast, and they recently lost their home in a fire
and would you mind welcoming them? Because not only did they lose
their home but they lost their community, and so I think that, as a
sense of community, would be really wonderful if you could help
welcome them. And it was amazing to see the thread in that email,
because all of us responded and said oh yeah, come to happy hour on
Saturday, or hey, we were playing bunco or whatever it is. Come,
I'll pick you up and take you over there and introduce you to
everybody. And I just it was such a wonderful thing and I thought
there you go, there's something that didn't really cost any money
and it was something with the whole community getting together. It
was just something really wonderful to see, especially like, yeah,
I've had a stressful week Really wonderful to see, especially like,
yeah, I've had a stressful week. And to be able to like, all of a
sudden, get an email like that and then see the community come
together and give it just was really a wonderful thing. And I just
I think now I'm like I want to start a podcast and I want to be
Jennifer, I want to be Danielle, because I know you guys also are
leading the 100 Voices who Care, which we'll talk about in just a
minute, because 100 Voices who Care is a wonderful organization
that was a longtime sponsor of the VO Boss podcast, so I'm excited
to talk about that.
11:58
So I love that we just came up with all of these ideas, because I
think the number one excuse why people think that they can't give
is the fact that they don't have any extra financial support, that
they can, that they can donate Awesome. So let's talk about so
we've got a lot of benefits where it, first of all, it makes us
feel good, right, we're helping somebody else. It can give us hope
in a, in a, in a place, in a world that might seem hopeless at the
time or just frustrating. Might seem hopeless at the time or just
frustrating. So let's talk about as businesses. How can giving help
maybe our businesses and I don't like to think that it's like, oh,
I want to just help my business. It's not I don't know if that's
like the foremost reason that I want to give, but hey, if I am
giving and I'm able to help others and I feel good about that, know
that also. It can, it can positively affect our businesses as well.
So, danielle, what do you think about that?
12:53 - Speaker 3 (Host)
Yeah, no, there are so many ways that it can affect and help your
business. One way and you know we'll think about it from
financially, because you know I like to talk about money.
13:02 - Speaker 2 (Announcement)
Of course.
13:04 - Speaker 3 (Host)
When you can give to businesses, you can get some sort of tax
benefit as well at the end of the year.
13:10
So financially, if you're giving to a 501c3, you can write that off
against your taxes at the end of the year in some cases. So that's
one financial way that it can help, but also in the social capital
as well. When you're out and you're meeting people who you can help
or who you'd like to support, the organizations you'd like to
support, it's a great way to meet other like-minded people and
maybe other like-minded businesses, organizations that I enjoy
supporting in my local organization, and I got to meet a ton of
local business leaders and they got to know who I was and I was
like the first voice actor they had ever met which was an
interesting conversation.
13:57
So there are ways to meet other people and engage in just community
building, especially locally, because we are local businesses as
well as global businesses doing what we do in voiceover. But
there's also a financial benefit too building especially locally
because we are local businesses as well as global businesses doing
what we do in voiceover. But there's also a financial benefit
too.
14:12 - Anne (Host)
And isn't that honestly like? Isn't that one of? Like the one on
ones of how do I get work in the voiceover business? Right, One is
OK, so we maybe try to join a roster, we try to get an agent, and
then there's we'll go to your local chamber of commerce, Right?
Think of this type of thing, Think of you know the possibilities of
charitable donations in terms of networking, because it's all about
the relationships and, as a matter of fact, a lot of the ways that
we get and secure and keep jobs to keep our businesses alive and
successful is through relationships. And what better relationship?
Not only something that makes you feel good that you've done
something to help somebody else, but also the possibility of maybe
networking with people who can also support your business.
Jennifer, I'm sure you've spoken to many people in your podcast
also that have been able to help their business and or other local
businesses. Talk about that.
15:11 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Well, I'll give you an example. Someone that I interviewed a few
months ago was a local nonprofit here in Kansas City called Foster
Light and they provide wraparound care for foster families and I
loved their mission so much that I was like they had a gala coming
up, a fundraising gala, and I was so compelled by their mission
that I took my CPA's advice. She said you need to start spending
money, and so I sponsored the gala and that was my first time doing
that, but it was strategic because it was a mission that I loved
and I was going to give to anyway. But I did it strategically so
that then I'm advertising my business Right, right, and I'm
supporting a mission that I love and I get networking
opportunities. There was like for all the sponsors, there was like
a meet and greet VIP happy hour beforehand, so I got networking and
networking with like businesses, not just a normal attendee. So it
was threefold and I thought I'm going to keep doing this because it
was beneficial to me on all fronts.
16:18 - Anne (Host)
So I have to ask your CPA said you need to spend some money,
Jennifer. What was her reasoning behind that? And I'm pretty sure
Danielle can answer that too, probably just off the cuff, without
knowing. Yeah.
16:28 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Why did you have to spend money? I've had a really good year. Ok, I
love it, so I need to bring that taxable income down.
16:35 - Anne (Host)
There you go, there you go. Yes, see, I love it, I love it, I love
it. Yeah, so lots of benefits.
16:42 - Speaker 3 (Host)
And can I just jump on that just for a second, because it's so
important and good for you, jennifer.
16:49 - Anne (Host)
That's wonderful.
16:50 - Speaker 3 (Host)
So really, that happens, it happens right. You have a wonderful
year, you have a great year and typically what we'll do as voice
actors is okay, great. We're going to go to voiceover conferences
we are going to support and we're going to make sure that we give
to other voiceover events maybe help with keeping the money in our
community, which is wonderful and it's a great tax write-off. I
like to joke. I like business travel, right, I like to travel for
business with these conferences and everything else. But this is
another way that you can have that same kind of effect financially
for your business. But you're also doing good and networking in
your local communities, and the idea again for businesses is to try
to create profit, right, and so if you're networking with people
who potentially could hire you for voiceover work or think of you
for connecting with other people, that's another way to help do
good in the world, do a whole lot of good in the world.
17:47 - Anne (Host)
And actually, if you don't mind, I want to tag team on that and say
that a lot of times when I would go to the Chamber of Commerce,
right, it was mostly other businesses just trying to hook up so
that we could make money off each other, and it was never. It
wasn't always as successful as I wanted it to be. But if you're
meeting for another reason, if you're meeting at a charitable
organization, you know you're meeting with people who are wanting
to give or have the ability to give, and that's a completely
different reason to have a good networking connection as opposed to
let's just network because we want to try to get work from each
other. So that is one big major difference. That is one big major
difference. So I really feel like it can be advantageous or
strategic to to really get more involved with, with a charitable
donation or that community You're finding like hearted.
18:36
Yes, yes.
18:38 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Absolutely, and those people are more likely to hire you because
it's like hey, we love the same mission, you're a giver, I'm a
giver, let's do business together. I would much rather do business
with someone like that than some random business.
18:53 - Anne (Host)
So here's something, because I know people they feel timid if they
don't have a lot to give, right? There's people I mean, if you can
give up your, everybody says, if you can give up your Starbucks,
right, one Starbucks a day. You know you're able to give. So what
advice would you give to someone who wants to give back but feels
like they can't, they're not giving enough or it's too little and
they're embarrassed. You know what I mean and it's not like, oh,
I'm not making a sizable contribution.
19:19 - Speaker 4 (Host)
I mean I'd say, first of all, don't compare your giving to anyone
else's giving. You really have to put your blinders on in life and
run in your own lane. So whatever you are able to do, do that
wholeheartedly and don't compare your giving to danielle's giving
or my giving or anne's giving um, this is your life and your time,
your money, your energy, your relationships and you, you gotta do
what's what's right for you.
19:49 - Speaker 3 (Host)
And measure it with your heart right. Like, your heart is to give,
no matter the size of the gift, your heart is to do something good
in the world. That's your intention. So the amount of money is
really at that point, it's not really as important as the fact that
you saw a need, you wanted to give something and you gave of. You
know what you had which could be a greater sum than the amount that
someone else gave. So really look at that from a place of like I'm
giving everything that I have, this is all I've got to give, this
is what I can afford to give. If it's a monetary amount and that is
immeasurable you can't measure someone's desire in that way. So
look for where you can do the most impact with that amount of money
or just give it because that's what your heart said to
give.
20:41 - Speaker 4 (Host)
And I think if we all just sit on our hands and use that as an
excuse like, well, I only have the $7 giving up my Starbucks this
week to give, if we all just wait on that, then nothing happens.
Change doesn't happen.
20:55 - Anne (Host)
Okay, possibly the elephant in the room, because sometimes, like I
said, people feel pressured, right? Sometimes people feel pressured
to give and then when there's a place to give where they see like,
oh, so-and-so just donated $1,000. And then you might be looking at
it going well, I don't have $1,000. So should I put my name there?
What are your thoughts on that Name anonymous? I think there's
benefits and there's pros and cons to both. To be quite honest, I
think that it's really a personal choice.
21:27 - Speaker 3 (Host)
I mean, this entire topic giving is so personal because it's tied
to your desire to do something good in the world and to help in a
way that you are able to help. So if it feels right to you to put
your name on it and say this is what I gave and this is what I was
able to give, and I'm proud of that and I want to put my name on
it, great. If you want to not have your name on it, I've given, and
given completely anonymously because it felt like the right thing
to do for me, anonymously, because it felt like the right thing to
do for me.
22:01
That was just the choice that I made at that time, so I don't think
that it. Please try not to in this way. As Jennifer was saying,
please keep your blinders on. Please understand that your reason
and your why for giving is the reason to give, whether it's
anonymously or with your name on it. And another way, even if you
feel like maybe you're not giving a lot of money, whatever that
number is for you, what you can do is you can team up with other
people and combine your gift to make it a larger gift, which is
what we do with 100 Voices.
22:29
Who Care?
22:30 - Anne (Host)
What a wonderful segue into one of the reasons why I love this
organization 100 Voices who Care. Talk to us a little bit about the
organization, and I think it actually kind of just really leads
itself nicely after the conversation we just had, because you don't
have to, you don't have to give a lot, but together it makes a huge
difference. So talk to us a little bit about 100 Voices who Care.
What's it all about?
22:53 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Well, there are a lot of groups in the voiceover community that we
join to get something right, like health benefits, vo workouts,
accountability for your business, etc. Those are all wonderful and
needed, but 100 Voices who Care? Is a group that you join to give.
We are a group of voice actors who are changing our communities
through our collective generosity. So we meet once a quarter.
Virtually. Each member commits $100 per quarter and we also bring
to that virtual meeting a local nonprofit that we want to nominate
and we choose three to five local nonprofits to members to pitch
those nonprofits. We vote via the poll on Zoom and then whichever
nonprofit wins our majority vote receives the entire donation from
all the members, it can mean up to, I believe, $10,000.
23:57 - Anne (Host)
Is that correct? So, collectively, right, if you have 100 people
that are joined, it can mean $10,000 for that local organization
that you want to support.
24:06 - Speaker 2 (Announcement)
Per quarter, which is amazing.
24:07 - Anne (Host)
Yeah, oh, per quarter. Yeah, thank you for correct me. My financial
boss over there, thank you, I love it Just keeping you in line.
Yeah, I love it Just keeping you in line. Yeah, I love it because
you may think that your $100 isn't really doing a lot, but in
reality, when you combine it with the community, I mean that is
amazing. I mean that's per quarter to help an organization and that
is something I think you can be proud of. And the fact is is that
not only are you helping a local organization to do good, but
you're also networking with like minded voice actors. So not only
are you like minded in your maybe in charities that you support or
you know ideals that you support, but also your voice actors as
well. So there's so many benefits to that, and I've always, always
loved this organization, so I'm so glad that the two of you are
heading it up. So how does it work? How can people join this
organization? And are they tied to a year, or are they tied? You
know how does that work. So we.
25:09 - Speaker 3 (Host)
the way it works basically is that we are open to any voice actor
who wants to join our organization. We give through a third party
called Grapevine. So Jennifer and myself, as we are the leaders of
100 Voices who Care, we're not touching any of the money. So you
would join through Grapevine. We all get together and Grapevine is
the one who takes our $100. Grapevine also will vet the nonprofit,
that is, the organization that we would give the money to as the
donation. We are not doing anything other than meeting, finding
local organizations, pitching that organization to the greater
group 100 Voices who Care and Grapevine really takes care of all of
the nitty gritty of keeping our money, sending it out, vetting the
nonprofit to make sure that everything is above board.
26:02 - Anne (Host)
I was going to say I really, I really like that that they vet the
organizations that you're giving to, because you vote right as a
collective, you vote on who to give that money to, and so it may
not have been your personal choice that maybe wins. And so you
might feel like, well, you know where's this money going to and
what are they doing with it. So I really love that you have a third
party that's vetting. And is there somebody that vets grapevine? Do
you know what I mean? Some people might have that question or talk
about grapevine. Have they been? I mean, has this been around? How
long has this been around? How long have they been working with
this?
26:36 - Speaker 4 (Host)
I don't know the answer to that. We've been with Grapevine from our
inception, so we started in 2022. Oh.
26:42 - Anne (Host)
OK, so it's been a good number of years yeah.
26:46 - Speaker 4 (Host)
And we've always had a wonderful experience with them as far as
that vetting process and they've got a great customer service as
well.
26:54 - Speaker 3 (Host)
So we have reached out to them just to ask questions about how to
better facilitate. You know our group or what we could, who we
could be giving our money to, and they answer us within a day or
two days. We've even emailed back and forth with the founder of
Grapevine, so they've been wonderful to work with and they've got
great customer service as well.
27:20 - Anne (Host)
So you've been doing this since 2022, is that correct? Yeah, so
what are some of the organizations that have been helped by 100
Voices? Who Care?
27:29 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Well, our very first recipient was called the Grooming Project. Now
they're called Prosperity, but they're here in Kansas City. I had
the privilege of pitching them. They are my favorite nonprofit in
Kansas City. They're based here. They are the country's only
nonprofit dog grooming school. In the entire country. They have
this really transformative program that breaks the cycle of poverty
through extensive job training within this booming industry of pet
grooming. So their students are usually society's most vulnerable.
They focus on single parents living in poverty. So these students
not only learn the art of dog grooming but they learn life skills
like budgeting and parenting, emotional regulation, things like
that. So once they go through this two-year program, they graduate
having a grasp on life, you know, and then they have this trade
that they can make a real living in. So it is literal life change.
My dog groomer went through this program. This is how I came to
know Posparity. She was in the first graduating class and she was
so successful that she managed the salon that they offer to the
community at a low cost.
28:48
So that students get an opportunity to work on their trade and then
it goes back into supporting this mission. But she managed that
salon and then she was so successful that she bought the entire
salon with Prosperity's Blessing.
29:04 - Anne (Host)
That's wonderful.
29:05 - Speaker 4 (Host)
Took all of the workers with her, with Prosperity's Blessing, and
she has this thriving dog grooming business in the Casey
Metro.
29:12 - Speaker 3 (Host)
Oh, that's wonderful.
29:13 - Speaker 4 (Host)
You know she, prior to this program, she was working multiple jobs,
single mom of two, living in government housing. Her life is
completely different and now she hires prosperity graduates in
order to give back, so I love it. These are the kind of when you're
when you're looking in your local community for a local nonprofit
to bring to a 100 Voices who Care meeting. These are the kind of
things that you get connected to.
29:41 - Anne (Host)
This is.
29:42 - Speaker 4 (Host)
I see Christine, my pet groomer. Pet groomer every six to eight
weeks because I have a golden doodle and they need lots of
grooming. I'm in her life now and there's just nothing like that to
be connected to people in your community doing good work and giving
back.
30:00 - Anne (Host)
So how can people sign up for 100 Voices? Who Care if they're
interested? I mean, do you have a period of time, that a special
time that they sign up? Because you say you're giving quarterly, so
I assume that there's another quarter coming up. Yeah, so
there?
30:12 - Speaker 3 (Host)
we have meetings every quarter. Our next meeting is going to be on
November 17th and you can really sign up at any time, but the idea
is that you would be coming to our next meeting. We ask that people
are ready to pitch. You would also be getting that $100.
30:32
Great Fine, would be debiting that money and you can set up as a
recurring payment through your credit card, but we ask that people
are also, yes, ready to pitch, but also bring a friend, because we
want to grow this to the 100 voices so we can get to our $10,000
per quarter. Absolutely, absolutely.
30:50 - Anne (Host)
Now, do the people that join? Do you have to bring a local charity?
Or, if you're not familiar, I think it's great because I feel like
you should research. Or if you're not familiar, I think it's great
because I feel like you should research charities yeah. But if
somebody maybe not have any preference, is it something that you
take care of or that's okay?
31:06 - Speaker 4 (Host)
We ask that people research small, local nonprofits. It does not
have to be local to you, oh okay, but we're just saying you know
Red Cross, st Jude Research Hospital. They're doing great work, but
they have huge donors, huge budgets. Everyone knows about them. So
we want to find those nonprofits that are doing good work in local
communities. So that can be anywhere, but we do ask that you do a
little bit of research.
31:30
We have a really easy email template, so that once you find that
nonprofit, you just email our template, fill in the blanks, email
our template off. And there are people at these organizations whose
job it is to answer these questions. You know, I think a lot of
people feel like they're imposing or they feel weird asking these
questions, but literally there are people who are, you know, doing
applications for grants all the time. So they already have these
answers ready to go and this template that we've made just makes it
so easy for you to create a pitch, a nomination out of that. So,
yeah, we just ask that you do a little bit of research We've made
it as easy as possible and that you bring it to the
meeting.
32:13 - Anne (Host)
Great, when do they go to sign up?
32:16 - Speaker 3 (Host)
They can go to our Instagram. There's a link in our Instagram where
they can go to sign up and we just, you just take it from there and
it'll take you to Grapevine, where you will sign up through
Grapevine.
32:29 - Anne (Host)
And bosses. I'll put that in the show notes for any of you and, of
course, when we, when we promote the show, which we will be doing
heavily we'll be putting that link in there as well. So last
question, guys If a listener takes just one action after listening
to this podcast, what would you want it to be?
32:46 - Speaker 3 (Host)

hesitant, if you're like I'm not sure that I'm ready to commit,
just come check us out. We welcome guests in our Zoom meetings.

that looks like. The Zoom meeting is on our Instagram link. You can
