What happens when a psychotherapist turns her own struggle to find care into a thriving community of healing? In this inspiring conversation, Rotem Stark, Registered Psychotherapist and founder of Stark Wellness Clinic in Toronto, shares how personal frustration with broken mental health systems became the spark for building something radically better.
We explore Rotem’s journey from clinician to entrepreneur, her mission to make therapy both accessible and transformational, and the philosophy that guides her work with individuals, couples, and families. She offers insight into how evidence-based and somatic approaches come together to foster deep, lasting change, and why support through every life stage is essential for growth.
You’ll also hear her reflections as a wife, mother, and lifelong learner on balancing care for others with care for self. Whether you’re a mental health professional, a parent, or simply someone seeking more grounded connection, Rotem’s story is a powerful reminder that healing often begins with saying, “There has to be a better way.”
Rotem Stark is a Registered Psychotherapist and the founder of Stark Wellness Clinic, a leading Toronto-based practice offering cutting-edge, evidence-based psychotherapy. The clinic specializes in advanced approaches to relationships, trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and somatic therapies. With over a decade of experience supporting individuals and couples, Rotem brings deep clinical expertise, including work with families at SickKids Hospital and teaching in the Adler Master’s of Psychology program, alongside lived insight as a wife and mother, providing thoughtful, compassionate care that supports meaningful and lasting change.

Cherie Lindberg

00;00;20;06 - 00;00;45;10
Cherie Lindberg
Hi everybody! Welcome to another episode of Elevated Life Academy and I am your host, Cherie Lindberg. And we are joined today by Rotem Stark and a letter introduce herself in just a second. But today we're going to it sounds like we're going to be talking about Act, possibly couples work, healing journeys and wherever else it takes us. So thank you so much for for being a guest on Elevated Life.
00;00;45;11 - 00;01;06;25
Rotem Stark
Of course. Thank you for having me. I'm very excited to be here. Yeah. So wherever you would like to start, like, I'm really would love to hear more about you and the work that you do, and then we'll see where we go. Yeah. So my name is Rotem Stark and I'm a registered psychotherapist in Toronto, Ontario. I'm also a wife and a mother to two amazing boys.
00;01;06;25 - 00;01;29;19
Rotem Stark
And I'm the founder of Stark Wellness Clinic, which is a psychotherapy clinic here in Toronto. And at the clinic, we have a team of of about 15 therapists, all with different specialties within psychotherapy. And we work with adults, couples, teens, kids and families. So we really do and are able to support many people in many different stages of their life and different types of challenges.
00;01;29;19 - 00;02;00;04
Rotem Stark
And, you know, the mission of Stark Wellness Clinic is really it's really simple, but it's very, very important to me. You know, I really want to provide highly individualized but high quality therapy that helps people just navigate the chaos of life that we all have to experience. And, you know, we really aim to offer care that isn't just supportive in the moment.
00;02;00;04 - 00;02;34;01
Rotem Stark
You don't just get relief in that moment, but it's truly transformational over time. And when I built Stark Wellness Clinic, my vision was really to create something exceptional, you know, just a therapy practice built around excellence and compassion and just deep clinical expertise. I like that because so many folks in mental health or in psychotherapy or they come to counseling or, or whatever had the misconception that it's like, you know, I go here for a little bit and I get some skills or I get some tools and and then I'm done.
00;02;34;01 - 00;02;55;20
Cherie Lindberg
But it sounds like you're really looking at helping them make their lives different, like really improve so that they can live in a different way and feel better. Absolutely. Yeah. And it's a it's you know, the growth is is lifelong I believe always grads. We're always transforming and growing in different stages of our lives. And different stages bring different challenges.
00;02;55;20 - 00;03;16;27
Rotem Stark
And having that support along the way is so invaluable. And, you know, the truth is that the whole thing just came from a place of need for myself. You know, for a really long time, I struggled to find really good care, you know, in my own city, even for myself and for my family, for my kids. And I wouldn't call around clinics and I would never get a call back.
00;03;16;27 - 00;03;40;08
Rotem Stark
Or, you know, sometimes the emails were just confusing or the intake process was just, like, overwhelming and a waitlist, right? Like, let's talk about the waitlist. I really know what it feels like to that support and not be able to find it. And system, I feel like sometimes can really just be challenging and make it so much harder for us when we when we need that support.
00;03;40;08 - 00;04;06;28
Rotem Stark
So, you know, I really decided that I wanted to create something different. I wanted to bring, you know, together, just really thoughtful and really skilled clinician people who just share. I think we both kind of share that to that genuine passion, you know, for helping others and helping them grow and heal and just better understand themselves even. Absolutely.
00;04;07;01 - 00;04;21;12
Rotem Stark
Yeah. And I really wanted people to feel supported from the very first moment that someone reaches out to us because, you know, from the second someone emails or calls, they should feel cared for and heard. Yes. Yeah, I really like that. I really like that, because.
00;04;21;12 - 00;04;42;19
Cherie Lindberg
One of the things that I was always counteracting was people coming in and saying, just like you're saying, I reached out to this person or this doctor or this service, and I can't get in for six months or I, you know, and when people do that with me now, because I'm a coach now, I'm not doing the psychotherapy.
00;04;42;19 - 00;04;59;03
Cherie Lindberg
I will help them find a referral even if I'm not seeing them, you know, because I know how hard it is to do that. Reach out and you can get so discouraged. If you don't get support, you can feel like nobody cares. So I hear you really wanting them to know you care.
00;04;59;06 - 00;05;19;22
Rotem Stark
Yes. And literally from the it's something that my team and I, we talk about it almost at every single meeting that we have is like, how can we support someone who, just from the very first contact with us, they can feel so supported and so held that they don't have a doubt in their mind that they're, you know, they're going to get what they need here.
00;05;19;22 - 00;05;38;11
Rotem Stark
And and if we, you know, if we need to refer them, most of the time, we can do it in-house because we've compiled such an exceptional group of people that can do so many different things. So like, let's say, if I see a couple, one of them needs eMDR for for their trauma, you know, I can send them down the hall.
00;05;38;11 - 00;05;45;05
Rotem Stark
And I have vetted that person myself. I know they're exceptional, so I can easily send them to them or one of them will.
00;05;45;05 - 00;05;46;04
Cherie Lindberg
Talk about it.
00;05;46;04 - 00;06;02;29
Rotem Stark
I feel good about it. Right? Like guessing. Like, let me go on Psychology Today and find someone freight or ADHD support, whatever it is that might come up for them and feel so good that we've been able to kind of create the space where people can really get the support, you know, all around. Sure.
00;06;03;01 - 00;06;17;07
Cherie Lindberg
That's beautiful. That's beautiful. So we we talked in the beginning here about one of your methods that you use is Act, and you work with a lot of couples and you have a lot of different modalities. So I would love to hear all of it.
00;06;17;09 - 00;06;51;12
Rotem Stark
Yeah for sure. Yeah. I know there's so much out there. I feel like some people might get overwhelmed with so many things. They see all these acronyms and they're like, what is I? Yeah, but act or act, you know, is I think is one is a really, really important modality that I, I feel like I integrate it almost seamlessly into most of my other work, if it's with couples or individuals, and I do a lot of attachment work and relational work, but act just very seamlessly gets integrated into all of my work.
00;06;51;12 - 00;07;13;09
Rotem Stark
And I think with Act, you know, one thing that I often tell people is that a lot of us grow up believing that the Google in life is just to feel good all the time, right? Like, we're all like, oh, I should be feeling good all the time. And you know, when we don't, when we have anxiety or sadness or self-doubt or whatever, like painful moments, we just we freak out.
00;07;13;09 - 00;07;40;11
Rotem Stark
We don't know what to do with it. And I think being human, that's the truth, that being human means experiencing the full range of our emotions, right? Being fully present in the world means that you will be experiencing a lot of difficult emotions as well as positive, but also some difficult. And it's just part of the deal. And it's amazing how as humans, we go to such extreme lengths not to feel.
00;07;40;12 - 00;07;44;22
Cherie Lindberg
That's why we won't be going out of business anytime soon. Correct?
00;07;44;24 - 00;08;13;04
Rotem Stark
Correct. And that's why Act is so powerful, I think because instead of trying to eliminate those feelings or those thoughts or those experiences, it really helps people just change their relationship to them and how they relate to those experiences, those difficult experience. And the goal is not to get rid of anxiety or pain altogether. It's the goal is really to learn how to live a meaningful life, even when those things show up.
00;08;13;06 - 00;08;39;01
Rotem Stark
Right. And Act is really about just developing some of those, some of sometimes, you know, they're called it's called psychological flexibility. Just really developing a psychological flexibility, which is really the ability to feel what we feel and think what we think and still move forward in life, you know, and still feel like we can get through it and accomplish the things that we want to and live the life we want to.
00;08;39;02 - 00;09;04;13
Rotem Stark
Which is why I think it's it's so powerful. Yeah, there's a few components which, you know, I talk to people about depending on what they need. You know, I kind of pull on the different components, but obviously the first one is acceptance because that's act like the A is for acceptance. And I think a lot of people think acceptance is like, oh, I should just suck this up, accept it and move on.
00;09;04;14 - 00;09;36;05
Rotem Stark
Right, right. That's not it. That's not it at all. Actually, the acceptance piece is just means making space for those experiences instead of just constantly fighting them. This is a personal belief, but I think that I think humans suffered the most or our most amount of suffering can come from that dissonance between what is happening and what we want to happen.
00;09;36;05 - 00;10;04;22
Rotem Stark
It's so hard, right? And yeah, it's I think that's where the acceptance piece comes from, that when we stop battling our own emotions all the time and just allow them to exist, they often just lose some of their power. Right. And another kind of component of act is something called cognitive diffusion. And it's kind of like a fancy way to saying learning to step back from from our thoughts.
00;10;04;23 - 00;10;25;24
Rotem Stark
Right. It's like diffusing some of our cognitive thoughts. And we I think we all know and even if you don't know, you probably, you know, can think back to the last five minutes that your thoughts and your mind just produces so many different feelings and emotions and thoughts every single day and tend to really just treat them as facts.
00;10;25;25 - 00;10;57;04
Rotem Stark
You know, we're like, oh, something bad is going to happen to me, or I'm stupid or whatever a million and way. Other thoughts that are mind is throwing at us. And I think what Act does really well is that it teaches people to just notice those thoughts. Right. We move from I'm stupid to I'm having the thought that I'm stupid, right?
00;10;57;06 - 00;11;21;10
Rotem Stark
And I often show this to people in session when we're together. Like, I'll kind of put up my fist. I don't know if people can't see us, but I hold up my fist, you know, and I'll say, pretend this is your brain right here. And, you know, obviously your brain is a little bit bigger. And this hopefully, but, you know, pretend this is your brain and your brain is constantly, constantly throwing these thoughts at you.
00;11;21;15 - 00;11;38;20
Rotem Stark
But look, here I am kind of far away from my fist and my my brain. My fist is over here. There's a space here. You know, there's a space that I can actually step into. And I think we're probably the only species on the planet that can do this, which.
00;11;38;20 - 00;11;39;11
Cherie Lindberg
Yeah.
00;11;39;13 - 00;12;13;28
Rotem Stark
Quite amazing. And so, like, let's use that. Right. Like, let's use that ability that we have and step into the space, create some distance from what your mind is constantly throwing at you. Because a lot of the times it is negative. And so how can we step into that space. Right. And one, you know, there's so many different tools, but one of the tools is literally saying and moving away from I'm stupid to I'm having the thought that I'm stupid or I can't do this.
00;12;14;01 - 00;12;20;26
Rotem Stark
No, I'm having the thought that I can't do this. Super powerful.
00;12;20;28 - 00;12;30;04
Cherie Lindberg
Yeah, yeah. Because it takes it out of your character, of who you are as a person. And just that, all my brain's doing this thing.
00;12;30;06 - 00;12;41;15
Rotem Stark
Yeah. Exactly. And it's such a small it's a small shift. It's not easy but it's a small shift that if you get work on can really change. You know your perception of all of these.
00;12;41;15 - 00;12;48;00
Cherie Lindberg
Negatives and we're not our thoughts. It's just part of what happens inside of us. Yeah.
00;12;48;02 - 00;13;05;07
Rotem Stark
Yeah. It's just a story. Right. That reminds you. Yeah. So that's another kind of component of act that is super powerful. Another part is just, you know, the mindfulness, the being present and another one that people are like, oh, mindfulness. Like how many times like, just be mindful. Just be mindful. It's like, what do you want from my life?
00;13;05;08 - 00;13;25;08
Rotem Stark
Like, I don't know how to do that. I don't know what that means. I can't meditate, right? But so many of us live either in the past or in the future. Right there. Anxiety. And I mean, I'm from downtown Toronto. It's a very busy life. People have, you know, we all do, but people are busy. They're running around, they have their jobs, they have their kids.
00;13;25;08 - 00;13;45;20
Rotem Stark
They're overwhelmed. They have their their parents, their aging parents, their friends and their responsibilities. It's a lot. And so we just never tend to be in the present. And I think what act tries to do is really tries to help us come back to the present, to the present moment, because it's really the only moment that's actually happening right now.
00;13;45;22 - 00;13;48;17
Cherie Lindberg
Right? It's the only one we're living.
00;13;48;19 - 00;14;07;25
Rotem Stark
In right now, right here, right now. And I think that shift for people with different techniques, whatever works for you, you know, it doesn't have to pay meditation. It can be a lot of different ways to to help you be in the moment. I think that shift can be very, very powerful for people as well.
00;14;07;28 - 00;14;10;02
Cherie Lindberg
What is the commitment part of it?
00;14;10;04 - 00;14;32;29
Rotem Stark
Yeah. So the commitment is kind of that committed action that we that we need to step into. And it's really about taking those small steps in the direction of one of the pieces values is figuring out what your values are, you know, and who you want to be in this world. And a lot of people lose sight of that and lose track of that.
00;14;32;29 - 00;14;58;08
Rotem Stark
And so we work on how can we understand better what your values are and which direction you want to move in. In this world, it could be very different for different people. Obviously, they all have different values, but the committed part is really taking committed action towards those values and towards living the life that you want to live.
00;14;58;11 - 00;15;24;20
Rotem Stark
So with many clients you know will work on, well, what kind of life do you want to have? Have you even thought about it? What kind of person do you want to be in this world? And that commitment is really taking those steps every single day. I often tell people from now on, I want you to think about everything that you do and everything that you say, and I want you to check with yourself.
00;15;24;23 - 00;16;03;21
Rotem Stark
Does this help me move towards and, you know, create the life that I want to live? Because oftentimes we just lose sight of that and we just were either on autopilot or we do things that are out of line with our values and don't get us to the life we want to live, right? Let's say one of your values is to be a healthy person, eat healthy food, move your body, exercise but you eat a lot of junk or you don't exercise, then you're there's misalignment here.
00;16;03;21 - 00;16;14;11
Rotem Stark
So how can make that commitment and build a plan to move you forward and really creating the life that you want.
00;16;14;13 - 00;16;18;06
Cherie Lindberg
Yeah. So you're talking about alignment with the values is what I'm hearing. Yeah.
00;16;18;07 - 00;16;21;06
Rotem Stark
That's where that committed kind of action comes in.
00;16;21;07 - 00;16;32;05
Cherie Lindberg
Yeah. Beautiful beautiful. So I know that act is one part of the work you do. What are some other things that you do to help people live more aligned lives?
00;16;32;07 - 00;16;46;27
Rotem Stark
Well I do like I said before, I do work with a lot of couples and I work with a lot of relationship issues because I actually I do believe you may have heard this before, but the quality of our lives equals the quality of our relationship.
00;16;46;28 - 00;16;48;03
Cherie Lindberg
Absolutely.
00;16;48;05 - 00;17;12;11
Rotem Stark
We're just relational beings, and we came to this world to be in relationships with other people. And I think the world is making it harder and harder for us to do that. We just don't have the skills. We don't have that connection. We're behind our phones and our computers all day, and it just makes it a lot harder for for to build connections.
00;17;12;13 - 00;17;42;08
Rotem Stark
And our relationships break down because of so many different reasons. And loneliness is a really big problem. So I really work with a lot of people when it comes to their relationships. I'm so passionate about couples work because I really feel like when you help a couple, you're not just helping the couple, you're helping to separate individuals, have a happier, more fulfilled life in relationship.
00;17;42;08 - 00;17;59;21
Rotem Stark
But you're also usually you're helping a whole family system so everyone is affected. The kids, you know, the grandparents, the everyone around gets affected. And a lot of people just don't have that, those skills, because it's like having kid like doesn't come in the manual.
00;17;59;23 - 00;18;16;28
Cherie Lindberg
Yeah. And we I think we don't realize until you're in the thick of things. I've been married 36 years. We usually follow the patterns that we learned growing up. And unless we do something differently, that's what shows up, right? And how we relate and so forth. I know you know that.
00;18;16;28 - 00;18;38;12
Rotem Stark
But oh, yeah, and that's part of the couple's work. You know, I will see a couple individual sorry, we'll see the couple together, and then we will break out into individual sessions because I want to get to know each one of them individually. I want to know what are their patterns, where do they come from? What was their parents relationship like?
00;18;38;13 - 00;19;10;00
Rotem Stark
Right? What did they see at home? Their blueprint. How did they. How did they learn to love? Right. Those are such important things that they bring into their current relationships, those dynamic. And it's amazing what comes out in those individual sessions. I always look forward to them because I'm so fascinated to do a deep dive and to get to know people on a deeper level, and then what we do is we bring all that information back and we say, okay, so this is your blueprint and this is your blueprint.
00;19;10;01 - 00;19;38;06
Rotem Stark
Now, what are we going to do to truly, deeply understand each other in a way that, you know, you can really identify what's happening in your partner when you speak to them in a certain way, and you might be bringing something up from like a deep wound from their past. We should know that about each other. And most people don't think, oh, my partner's just being reactive.
00;19;38;07 - 00;20;04;29
Rotem Stark
They just get mad at everything I say or right. For example, if I have like deep abandonment issues, my father left when I was really, really young and just left our family right. If I have a deep abandonment issue in that sense, and every time I get into a fight with my partner, they walk out the door and there's a big breakdown for me emotionally every single time, and it takes me weeks to recover from that.
00;20;05;01 - 00;20;08;04
Rotem Stark
That's my partner should know about me, right?
00;20;08;05 - 00;20;10;09
Cherie Lindberg
Right. Absolutely.
00;20;10;11 - 00;20;10;28
Rotem Stark
And they.
00;20;11;03 - 00;20;30;08
Cherie Lindberg
Probably. Stay right? Right. Or be able to say, hey, I'm I'm taking a time out for myself, but I will come right back. I just need to take a time out or whatever to reassure. Right. So that actually it helps with that trigger there. Yeah.
00;20;30;13 - 00;20;33;26
Rotem Stark
Yeah. There needs to be a system in place for that. Yeah, absolutely.
00;20;33;27 - 00;20;34;25
Cherie Lindberg
Absolutely.
00;20;34;26 - 00;20;50;26
Rotem Stark
So there's so much to learn about each other. And I think sometimes people think like, oh, what am I going to do in couples therapy? I already know everything about you. You know, when you just don't get along. But there's so much more to it. And I'm super passionate about it because.
00;20;50;29 - 00;20;51;26
Cherie Lindberg
That's great.
00;20;51;27 - 00;21;05;27
Rotem Stark
The work that and that I've seen people do, and the way that they form their relationship has been incredible. Incredible. Yeah. So it's yeah, it's definitely something I do a lot of and I'm super passionate about in my work.
00;21;06;03 - 00;21;15;23
Cherie Lindberg
Maybe share a challenge for a inspiration in working, you know, with your with your couples.
00;21;15;26 - 00;21;43;22
Rotem Stark
Yeah. That's a that's a great question. I mean, a challenge I think is when not both people are willing to do the work, when there's no desire to really take a deeper look into yourself and understand that it's not like a blame game, or we're here to point fingers at each other and just say, fix them. You know they're doing this wrong.
00;21;43;22 - 00;22;04;03
Rotem Stark
Fix them. Like, why do they keep doing this? And they could just put the dishes away or pick up their socks. Everything would be better. But we all know that it's never about the dishes or the socks. There's something a lot deeper there, I think. Yeah, that's that can be a definite challenge when people are not able to say, you know, what is the work that I need to do here?
00;22;04;06 - 00;22;24;04
Rotem Stark
And I get around that by doing a lot of education around it. And, you know, ever kind of and making each partner understand that they have to take responsibility for themselves and for the relationship because or else it just won't work.
00;22;24;05 - 00;22;25;17
Cherie Lindberg
Right, right.
00;22;25;18 - 00;22;44;18
Rotem Stark
So that that can definitely be a challenge when one comes in and they're ready to do the work and they're okay, like, let's do this. And the other is like, well, you know, what are you going to tell me? What are you going to, you know, tell me that I don't already know. That can definitely be challenging. But other than that, I think everything can really be worked on or worked through.
00;22;44;19 - 00;23;08;23
Rotem Stark
You know, I've worked with a lot of infidelity or just a lot of break in trust in other ways, whether it's financial or there could be such a wide range of ways that we heard each other, unfortunately. Right. Because the closest relationship we have to our parents and it goes really, really deep in that sense that we can really hurt each other pretty bad, unfortunately for not careful.
00;23;08;23 - 00;23;15;03
Rotem Stark
But the relationship really starts when you start to do the real deep work, I think.

Do you have any certain method that you use with working with couples, or do you use a variety of things?
00;23;21;23 - 00;23;45;12
Rotem Stark
So I definitely use EFT, which is emotion focused therapy with for couples. And also I use some Gottman method as well, which is great because it has such a wide variety of tools and just ways of structuring and helping people understand. Like what? What you know, it's such an elusive thing, like make your relationship work. What does that even mean, you know?
00;23;45;13 - 00;24;09;25
Rotem Stark
And where do we start? So those tools are so invaluable, I think with, like you said, like sometimes taking that time out or what, you know, what are some of the, the base fundamental things that we should start even working on in this relationship. So I think often is really good at building that and giving people tools that they can take home and do in between sessions, because that's where the work really is, right?
00;24;10;02 - 00;24;13;23
Rotem Stark
It's really when you take away those tools and.
00;24;13;25 - 00;24;27;03
Cherie Lindberg
Use them. Yeah. Day to day applying and shifting the patterns between the couple. Yeah. Well, is there anything I haven't asked you that would be important for our listeners to hear?
00;24;27;08 - 00;25;01;08
Rotem Stark
I think that if you are struggling with anything, or if you would want to see any change in your life, I think that therapy can be such a powerful tool and can really transform you and transform your family in ways that you probably don't even realize are possible. And we are so lucky, I think, to live in an era where therapy is more accepted.
00;25;01;10 - 00;25;25;23
Rotem Stark
Yes, it wasn't. And it was a big stigma around going to therapy. There was something wrong with you and people were embarrassed, you know, to say that they were going to therapy. But I think that we are very lucky to live in an era where it's more accessible, and it's possible. It's still possible to see change. And you have so many options.
00;25;25;25 - 00;25;34;29
Rotem Stark
You have so many different options to tackle different things, that I would definitely go for it. I would definitely take the leap.
00;25;35;01 - 00;25;49;24
Cherie Lindberg
No, I love that. And I, you know, I hope everyone's hearing the inspiration that is the energy that's coming off with that is to change, to grow, to feel better, to live the life that you want. Like, that's that's what we're both encouraging here.
00;25;49;24 - 00;26;14;05
Rotem Stark
And, you know, being someone who sits with people every day. I have seen such incredible change in people. It's so inspiring and I'm so grateful to have to be in this position to be able to walk along people in those in those, you know, life changes that they make. But it's absolutely transformational. And it's it's very possible. So.
00;26;14;08 - 00;26;21;19
Cherie Lindberg
Very much so. Well, thank you so much for coming on and having this wonderful conversation with me today. I really appreciate it.
00;26;21;19 - 00;26;26;28
Rotem Stark
Thank you. It was such a pleasure. Yeah, I really enjoyed it.
00;26;27;00 - 00;26;53;09
Cherie Lindberg
I hope you enjoyed our talk with Rotem. I really enjoyed connecting with her and hearing about her authentic passion for, you know, helping families and couples really get the care that they need, really feel connected when they connect with her, her clinic. And I just want to say that there's so many of us out here that really do feel that way.
00;26;53;10 - 00;27;13;04
Cherie Lindberg
Don't give up. Like if you reach out and you don't get the care that you need, like go to the next like interview, make sure that you're advocating for yourself because there are so many people out there that really, genuinely care and really want you to be cared for so that you can grow and so you can live an elevated life.
00;27;13;04 - 00;27;35;22
Cherie Lindberg
That's what this whole podcast is all about. And Rotem was really sharing about holding space for folks to help them. What do you value and what kind of life do you want to live? And that is inspiring. And that's exactly what this podcast is all about. And just as I've said before, if there is someone that you think that could benefit from this, please share.
00;27;35;23 - 00;27;53;09
Cherie Lindberg
Because we're trying to get the word out and we're trying to give little bits and pieces of information here and there that can support people, inspire people to live their best life. So until next time. Thank you so much for coming and listening.
