[45:43]<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Hey Charissa!<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: Hey Cassy!<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughs} If you’re listening on Monday the 25th, then Charissa and I wish you a very happy memorial day.<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: That’s right! I’ve been so busy working I didn’t even remember it’s a holiday weekend.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Today’s a holiday! As an entrepreneur and as someone who works from home, you kind of lose track.<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: You do.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: What the holidays are.<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: In that case, this episode is perfect! I hope everyone listens to it this morning so they thoroughly enjoy their holiday evening, or day!<br> <br> 1. Updates from Cassy [1:31]<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Yes. Today we are so excited about our topic. Before we get to it, Charissa, I’ve got to really important update for you.<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: Oh, I’m ready.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughs}<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: I’m so ready. Wait, wait. Ok, now I’m ready. {laughs}<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Now you’re ready? {laughs} It’s about my garden.<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: Oooh!<br> <br> Cassy Joy: It’s really important. I never realized how much of my littler heart that garden would consume.<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: Mmm.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: I love it so much. It is exploding. I started everything from seeds, and if you’re a first time listener, this past spring I decided, I live in suburbia of San Antonio, and Austin, my fiancé, built me 3 raised beds that are, what are they, 4 x 8 each. So they’re pretty good sized, and we filled them with organic soil and I sprouted seeds, I was so excited, and things are doing really well. My spaghetti squash is enormous. I have a cabbage patch full of kale and collards, and I have a nightshade patch, which is something that probably only a nutritionist would think about. {laughs}<br> <br> Charissa Talbot: {laughs} Right.<br> <br>
