Partial Transcript:

[Intro and music]

Annie:

Hello listeners. Thank you for being here. I am interviewing today, Leah Wiseman, who is, we’re trying to figure out exactly what to call her, but for the moment I’m going to call her our student leader of our upcoming 21 day challenge. Leah, Hey, thanks for being here.

Leah Wiseman:

Hey, thanks so much for having me today. I’m so excited to chat about our challenge.

Annie:

I know, me too. So I wanted to have Leah on both to talk about the challenge and we can go through some of the specifics, but also just wanting to kind of hear about Leah’s journey into dog training. She has been a podcast listener, I know, since she got her puppy.  Since you got your puppy, I don’t know if I should be, am I speaking to you or like the greater people?

Leah:

Right? It’s kind of surreal to be talking to you live when it’s I’m so used to like hearing your voice.
