Thank you, Monica, for posting this podcast!
It was a delight to listen to.

For those who may be considering listening to this:
I thought it may be helpful to add the chapters and a link to the transcript, if you would like to quickly scan the topics and/or prefer to read vs. listen.
FYI - You can also download the podcast for listening at a later time (disconnected to the Internet).
