So first things first, I am super excited 25 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: to share that I recently launched the Professional Home Girl 26 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: coloring book. I am so excited about this because y'all 27 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: is so fucking cool and pretty like no cap like. 28 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: I am so obsessed with it, and now I know 29 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: some of y'all wandering the wild coloring books, so let's 30 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: keep key. I wanted to create something that will go 31 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: with the podcast, but interactive, so follow me. Okay, So 32 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: you know I have the merge, I have shirts, I 33 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: have the mugs and stickers I I but I wanted 34 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: something different because who don't have all those things? I 35 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 1: noticed during the pandemic that a lot of people took 36 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: interest in coloring books, and I thought, how cool would 37 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: it be if I was to create a coloring book 38 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: that goes with the podcast? Right now, y'all know like 39 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: to create things for the twist, So I thought, how 40 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: cool would it be to add a QR code to 41 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: each illustration so that while person is coloring, they can 42 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: also listen to the stories That matches that illustration, and 43 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: I said to myself, bitch, I said right there. Okay. Plus, 44 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: I felt like I was going to different bookstores and 45 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 1: I didn't see any coloring books that reflected as the 46 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: lifestyle that I live, or my friends live, or even 47 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: my guests live. I was like, chawd, how many coloring 48 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: books you'all and give us the flowers and different hair styles? Chow, 49 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: how many slaves we're here's the variety? Yeah, okay, we're 50 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: like options over here. So with that being said, the 51 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: Professional Homegoird Coloring Book is an interact of self health 52 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: coloring book that provides beautiful and I do mean beautiful 53 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: and relatable illustrations featuring crows and games creative by MOI.

So 57 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: PhD's and niggas hold me down, don't hold me up, 58 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: and please support by grabbing this for yourself or as 59 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: a gift.
