Eventually, I got it…

So, at first I was thinking, I don’t know that this is going to be helpful for me. I stuck with it, though, eventually things started to click and I found so much of the information from the guests helpful and enlightening. Stuff I thought I knew, but clearly there’s sometimes a better way. Loved it!
