Before we dive into today's episode, I first want to thank our sponsor, Therasage. Their TriLight panel has become my favorite biohacking thing for healing my body. It's a portable red light panel that I simply cannot live without. I literally bring it with me everywhere I go.

You can use it on a sore back, stomach cramps, shoulder pain. ankle, red light therapy is my go-to. Plus, it also has amazing anti-aging benefits, including reducing signs of fine lines and wrinkles on your face, which I also use it for.

All right, guys, this is a fun episode we're doing today because I have Sarah Jane Ho, otherwise known as Sarah Jane, that's how you go by, who wrote a book called Mind Your Manners. She has the same name for her Netflix show, which is now not going into season two. We don't know yet. You don't know.
There's only been season one.
There's only been season one, but she is a renowned etiquette expert. I can't wait to ask you my questions. And we are going to get really into all this stuff. Sarah Sanku, thank you so much for being on this podcast. Thank you for having me. I love talking about habits and hustle. Well, I'm glad because we're going to be talking all about habits and hustle, but how to do it properly.
I mean, I got to tell you, I'm actually kind of nervous to have you on. I told you that when you walked in because... I don't know. I think maybe I need, like, I need to hire you because there's a couple areas of my life that probably I'm not the most groomed and well, my etiquette may be a little bit lacking. So this could be a long way to find out.
Yeah.
