For today's conversation because we are gonna be speaking with Justin Lee, who is a divorce lawyer, gonna be giving us his take on relationships and relationship advice.

[00:00:30] So we're gonna start right off. Justin, a Toronto based family and divorce lawyer.

I'm one of 450,000 and I, I gotta say, I really like Justin's perspective, his insights on Instagram, so I'm excited to dive just a little bit deeper because of course you're getting short form.

I've kind of gone through all of his content I've been following for a while, and, uh, man, the relationship advice or insights really are really sound.

[00:01:48] So I'm excited to dive a little deeper into this conversation now. Thank you so much for being here. Um,
