Layla Dierdorff: [00:00:28] Hello. Welcome to Kid Biz Radio. I’m Layla.
Austyn Guest: [00:00:31] And I’m Austyn.
Layla Dierdorff: [00:00:32] Today we have some awesome guests with us in the studio, Heather Sexton and Chiquita Pollard.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:00:37] Hi.
Austyn Guest: [00:00:38] Hello. Thank you for being here with us today.
Layla Dierdorff: [00:00:40] Um, so this episode is a little different today. Our guests are the teachers from the Kid Biz Expo Academy here to tell us about the upcoming classes they’ll be teaching. Welcome to our podcast for Kid Biz Expo. Please introduce yourselves and tell us a little bit about yourselves.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:00:54] Thank you for having us. I’m Chiquita Pollard. I’m a substitute teacher for Cherokee County, okay. Full time. I have two daughters who love selling everything that they could possibly create.
Heather Sexton: [00:01:07] I love one of their pens.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:01:10] She’s. She’s taking a little break now because of competition and everything, but she loves it. Um. That’s good. Yeah.
Heather Sexton: [00:01:16] I’m, um, Heather Sexton, and I am also in education. I’m a teacher. I’ve been teaching for ten years now. Um, started in California with older kids. Um, started with sixth grade from there, went down all the way to kindergarten. Wow. That’s all the way to pre-K. Pre-k? No. Thank you. Um, currently I am working with second graders, but I also, um, work with tutoring kids. And now I’ll be starting this journey with entrepreneurial kids. Yay! Very nice, very nice. Yes. Very nice. Um, so what inspired you to teach the upcoming entrepreneurial classes and kind of describe the classes that you guys are each doing, um, for? Well, for me, uh, recently I’ve been as a, as a single mom now to a three year old, I wanted to kind of be better and just acquire more skills and create opportunities for her and for I in the future. So I’ve, um, thought a lot about, well, what else can I do besides teaching, um, to potentially start earning side income and such? And so I. Had to acquire skills through a lot of practice and a lot of investment with my time and my money. But I bought myself a cricket and I taught myself how to create, um, t shirts, you know, with the vinyl. And I’ve done some cups as well and interested in trying out stickers and such. So, um, I’ve kind of been on my own journey and I’ve had some success with, um, selling to, you know, teachers, um, on campus coworkers, their family, uh, my friends and their family and in some, even in the community as well. So, um, it’s been nice to kind of, I guess, bridge what I’m doing personally in into professionally as well. It’s just kind of made sense. Yeah, I have had a cricket before. They are fun to work with. Some of the vinyl can be, um, a pain, but with the cheap the word is cheap. Yeah, invest in good products. Yes, it is definitely key. What about you, Shakira?
Chiquita Pollard: [00:03:29] Well, um. I just love being around kids. I found myself doing Girl Scouts. Yes. And then moving on to education. And I’ve always had a passion for business. I started my own small business when my daughter was barely one. Um, um, just because I decided to stay at home with her and we needed a little extra income. Yeah, yeah. Um, but high school, when I was you guys, age and younger, I’ve always had a passion for for entrepreneurship and going into the community and helping out and, um, marketing all of that. So I want to teach that to everyone that I can.
Layla Dierdorff: [00:04:08] That’s very nice. Okay.
Austyn Guest: [00:04:09] So in each of the classes that you are both going to teach, how do you plan personally for each of you to make said classes engaging to keep everyone you know, interested and participating, etc.?
Chiquita Pollard: [00:04:22] I’m a full on. In order to learn, I have to visualize it. I have to touch it. I have to be around it.
Heather Sexton: [00:04:29] I am the exact same way I feel you.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:04:31] Yes. I Cannot read texts and just absorb it. I have to be interactive. That’s understandable. All of my classes will be interactive. I set up a virtual store. Okay, cool. So yeah, so they can, you know, technology now, is everything right?
Austyn Guest: [00:04:45] Yes.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:04:46] You know, you want your video games, you want instant gratification. So we’re going to learn through that. We’re going to get to know everyone by interactive gaming. Okay. Um board games and also trying to go out and field trip.
Austyn Guest: [00:05:00] That’s okay. Okay.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:05:02] What else?
Austyn Guest: [00:05:03] Some little field trips every now and then.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:05:04] Learn from others. Yes.
Heather Sexton: [00:05:06] Well, they’ll just take a trip to Crazy Town with me anywhere. Uh, we’re going to stay indoors, but we are going to be super interactive. So when working with Chiquita and Rene and Amy, um, to develop the program, I thought it was super important to not just teach theory or the foundations of the business, although that’s important, but to actually do it, there’s, um, uh, in education, there’s a saying of like, tell me, I’ll forget, show me, I’ll remember and involve me and I’ll learn. Yeah. So I’m going to be doing a lot of involvement using some resources I was provided for kid entrepreneurs. I created the session to build upon, um, session by session, where we’re going to start with brainstorming ideas together. Um, they’re going to be writing on anchor charts. They’re going to be, um, you know, going back and forth with each other and just building up a really good bank of ideas to then choose their what they want to as a group for the one on one course, um, create. And from there they’re going to get their hands on actual materials, they’re going to produce the product, they’re going to be creating surveys, they’re going to be going to potential buyers and families and friends in their community to ask, um, for feedback and input. And they’re going to use that input and feedback to create an even better product. So they’ll be revising. And that’s something that a lot of kids will do in classes. Yeah. They don’t just you don’t get to turn a paper in and say, here you go. You do have to revise it. You have to revise it many times to then come out with a better product or a better outcome. Um, so after that they’re going to be creating business cards. They’re going to be using platforms like Canva. We, uh, very good platform to use.
Austyn Guest: [00:06:57] Yeah, yeah.
Heather Sexton: [00:06:59] Uh, we’ve got, uh, some donations from laptops. So they’ll be using real, real world skills that they’ll need in their adulthood, um, to really actually do it. Not just think about doing it, but actually doing it.
Austyn Guest: [00:07:13] It definitely does help when actually sticking with the information if you physically do it.
Heather Sexton: [00:07:17] Right, and then they have to work through the challenges because it’s not your plan might not succeed the first time. And that’s I think a big part of being an entrepreneur is, um, practicing and becoming better at responding to those challenges because you.
Austyn Guest: [00:07:34] Have to expect setbacks. It’s it happens to everybody. It’s okay. Yeah. They’re perfectly normal. So.
Heather Sexton: [00:07:39] And in the real world, yes.
Austyn Guest: [00:07:40] Of course.
Heather Sexton: [00:07:42] Um, how will these classes kind of connect concepts to the real world? How do you plan to guide students through the challenges and turn them into positive learning experiences instead of.
Austyn Guest: [00:07:51] Like, dang, I failed, kind of learn from those.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:07:57] It’s just like we said, it’s okay to fail. You just it’s all about getting up and trying again, no matter how many times you have to try again. Because as a business owner, you try to read the consumer’s mind, you try to understand what they want, but you’re.
Austyn Guest: [00:08:09] Going to understand your.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:08:10] Audience. Yes, you’re going to, but it’s okay. Um, just keep trying. I want to start over the question again. Sorry.
Austyn Guest: [00:08:16] Oh, um.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:08:17] I had it triggered a thought and then it went away.
Austyn Guest: [00:08:20] So, like, how will you, like, do.
Heather Sexton: [00:08:22] The fail to positive experience, but also how you kind of connect it to like, real world entrepreneurship and not just.
Austyn Guest: [00:08:28] In the classes?
Chiquita Pollard: [00:08:29] Um, well, like the life skills we were talking about, uh, finances. You can make mistakes, but you got to know your finances if you make a mistake. Yes. Um, and just positive, positive reinforcement, helping them get through those hurdles. Uh, problem solving, skill solving. Mhm. Um, my thing is sitting with each student one on one and saying, okay, what is your business? What are we doing? What has failed? What has not failed? Let’s work through this. So not only are we teaching everyone in a group setting with this the advanced class, but I’m also sitting down with you one on one so that we.
Austyn Guest: [00:09:07] Think that would be very helpful to some of the kids.
Heather Sexton: [00:09:09] Yeah, I think it’s important to teach kids, um, mindset because it’s really easy to get um, like.
Austyn Guest: [00:09:18] Kind of discouraged.
Heather Sexton: [00:09:19] Discouraged with the setbacks. But, um, instead of, you know, them thinking that a failure is a stop sign, it’s more so. No, it’s a redirection. So where do we go from here? A little detour, it’s a detour. And I think that’s when, um, collaboration comes into play. They’re going to be in a class with other kids, and we all have different ideas. We all have different skills, and we all have different interests and different. Did I say experiences? Those experiences really do shape the way we think. And um, and so it’s really important in anything we do to collaborate, whether it’s, you know, personal or and making any decision, collaboration really gives you the, the strength of, you know, other people’s experience.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:10:09] Can I piggyback off your collaboration?
Austyn Guest: [00:10:10] Yeah, absolutely.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:10:11] Of course. I think it also gives you confidence when you have the confidence with the collaboration and seeing everyone else. Maybe someone else made that same mistake, right? Yeah.
Austyn Guest: [00:10:20] Um, so that helps you try and figure it out. Maybe with them too.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:10:23] Less alone and less alone. Yes.
Heather Sexton: [00:10:25] And, um, like the the idea of. No, you’re not you’re not in this all by yourself. Yeah, yeah.
Austyn Guest: [00:10:32] You may be doing the business yourself, but everyone is working together to get you there. Right.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:10:36] And that’s the purpose of this organization anyways. Yeah. Everyone. Yeah.
Heather Sexton: [00:10:40] You have to involve the community and allow them to support you.
Austyn Guest: [00:10:46] Yes, yes, it is very crucial. So, um, we’ve been talking about the kids now. So how can parents support their kids in the class and what exciting projects or maybe events are in store for the future of these entrepreneurial classes?
Chiquita Pollard: [00:11:01] I think the parents being involved, just being just being a parent, that’s just very vague. Um, but like with Aria, for instance, and she does her pens, she wants me to come in and spend time with her to do them with her. So the parents being involved in that child’s business is critical. Sit down with your child. Help them work through because the classes are only an hour or 15 minutes, an hour and a half. So there’s so much more that could get done outside of the classroom. It really is. Yeah. Take what we’re teaching them and help apply it at home so that they can. So that they can learn.
Austyn Guest: [00:11:39] Yeah.
Heather Sexton: [00:11:39] I think just encouraging the students and just remembering to reinforce the the growth mindset that, you know, failures aren’t like I said, they’re not stop signs. We have to push through them and they should expect those challenges and, and just, um, have a positive attitude towards approaching how to problem solve. Um, and I forgot my last thought here.
Austyn Guest: [00:12:05] Have fun.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:12:06] With it. It’s fun. It’s a it’s an experience and it’s an adventure. You’re spending time with your child and learning more quirks about them, more things that they love to create. Just make it fun. Don’t make it all, you know, focused and money driven or, um, life. I know it’s life skill driven, but you learn that thing. You learn those things along the way through having fun.
Austyn Guest: [00:12:28] It’s so it’s a way to like, uh, connect with your kid and. Yeah.
Heather Sexton: [00:12:32] And to piggyback off of what Chiquita said, I remember my last thought. Now that it’s great that the parents actually spend time and help them, you know, think through things and help them possibly even create their products. But as a teacher and, and a mom, um, it can be easy for adults to just kind of shoot down kids ideas because they don’t like it. They don’t think it’s practical. I think it’s really a good idea for them to just sit and listen and. Their practice responding to them.
Austyn Guest: [00:13:04] Awesome, right?
Heather Sexton: [00:13:06] Not just immediately shutting their ideas down.
Austyn Guest: [00:13:09] Mhm.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:13:09] You know, get out of your comfort zone with your own child.
Austyn Guest: [00:13:12] Yeah. Yeah. Um, so these classes really do sound great for kids kind of getting ready to learn about entrepreneurship. When are these classes and when are they going to begin?
Heather Sexton: [00:13:22] First step is starting the classes on January 23rd and 24th, depending on which class they’re enrolled in. So upcoming Tuesdays and Wednesdays, um, there’s a 5 to 615 session and a 630 to 745. They all last about six. They last six weeks. And, um, and then we’ll start, uh, with session two, we’re going to introduce a 102 class which will expand. It will expand off of the 101 class to basically having the kids who have just started exploring entrepreneurship in a group setting to now trying it on their own individually.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:14:07] Right. And then they’ll merge it back into the getting the numbers wrong, the to the advanced class. Yes. And being on their own. Um, but we also spoke about, um, incorporating them into all of the expos. Yes. So you remember, you had a question earlier on how what events would be coming up and all that. Yes. So they’ll have their own, um, segment or portion portion at the expo so they could get a little experience on what it’s like to sell at a booth.
Austyn Guest: [00:14:35] It’s definitely helpful to have that experience. So now we’re kind of going to get ready for some more questions that require some deep thinking. Those yeah, those are.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:14:46] Already deep enough okay.
Austyn Guest: [00:14:47] Yeah. Those questions that might take a little bit longer to answer. It’s perfectly fine. All right. So for starters, if you had the attention of the whole world for five minutes, everyone was listening, paying attention to what you were saying, what would you say?
Heather Sexton: [00:15:03] So I think for me, I think this opportunity is something that as a parent I would jump on. Mhm. Um, because it’s encouraging the kids to think outside of themselves and I believe it will increase their self-confidence and their self-worth. And they’re going to really see that the world can make an impact on you, but you can also make an impact on the world. And, you know, businesses that are really successful now started at ground zero. So they they just have to start. They just have to start.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:15:38] That’s like a passion. Mhm. Compassion. Yeah. Five minutes I will speak on compassion. And then let’s wrap it back up into business. Yeah.
Austyn Guest: [00:15:46] You got to add some of it in there. Yeah.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:15:48] Just a little bit more. So they have compassion for these kids that are trying and understand that they’re learning. And you know when we go to uh, when I do events with my daughter, you know, there’s adults passing by, you know, stop, have some compassion that these kids are learning how to sell. They’re learning life skills. They’re learning how to put themselves out there into the world, because that is hard enough as it is. It really.
Austyn Guest: [00:16:14] Is. Yes. That was that was like a really good point. You’re like just at least that they’re trying like like knowledge that like it’s hard to try.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:16:21] You don’t have to buy anything. Just give them the small interactions. Right. That interaction is turns into a life skill. It helps them not be nervous and it helps them have confidence.
Austyn Guest: [00:16:31] Yes. Um, my public speaking has definitely improved since I started this. Absolutely. Like 1,010%. Those experiences definitely helped with that. Another one, if you could choose one superpower to help make the world a better place, what would it be and why? Again, this can easily turn personal. Either way, it’s all right.
Heather Sexton: [00:16:51] Yeah, I thought immediately. Okay, personal. I would, um, I would have a kindness kick. Like if somebody wasn’t being kind, I’d just kick them and then they absolutely love that.
Austyn Guest: [00:17:01] That was definitely one I’ve never heard before. Love it.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:17:04] So I would piggyback off your kindness kick. But before they got kicked, maybe after they got kicked.
Speaker4: [00:17:10] Yeah, I would.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:17:11] Um, I don’t know, the superpower, but what is it when they make you feel a certain way?
Austyn Guest: [00:17:16] Um. Empath. Empath. It’s like what that man does. And like Guardians of the Galaxy where she’s like, oh, yes, her. Yes. I want to say empath.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:17:25] Yeah. I would do what she does.
Austyn Guest: [00:17:27] Okay. Absolutely. Yeah. That’s good, that’s good, that’s good. That is a very good one.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:17:30] And then you get the kick.
Speaker4: [00:17:32] Then you get the kick freak. She’s a control freak over here. Yes.
Austyn Guest: [00:17:37] Okay. Um, so now we’re done with those kind of deep thinking ones. Let’s do some fun. This or that. Okay, so these are a little bit different than normal questions, but, um, if you had to choose a spirit animal that represents your entrepreneurial style, which would it be? And maybe why, you know, take your time, think well.
Heather Sexton: [00:17:59] Oh, I, um, I already know this one. I would definitely be a dog. Number one, because I love them. They’re the best. Uh, I did actually want to be a veterinarian, but then I was, like, 12 years of school. I don’t want to do that.
Austyn Guest: [00:18:10] Yeah, that is a lot.
Heather Sexton: [00:18:11] And I realized I’m a teacher. I’ll be in school for the rest of my life.
Speaker4: [00:18:14] Yeah.
Heather Sexton: [00:18:15] Um, but, uh, their dog, a dog is because they’re so cute and they’re a little bit crazy. They can be mischievous at times, but they really just want to be happy and loved and accepted.
Austyn Guest: [00:18:26] Of course, I love that. Yeah. What about you?
Chiquita Pollard: [00:18:28] I would do it. Reminds you of. Reminds me of tangled. I would do a chameleon. Isn’t that a tank? Yeah.
Austyn Guest: [00:18:33] Yes, that is a tangled. Yes. I love that.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:18:35] Chameleon because.
Austyn Guest: [00:18:38] He’s definitely a fun little chameleon. Yes.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:18:39] Isn’t he cute? He is. He changes colors. I’m so cute. Only because, like, they adapt. So in the entrepreneurship world, you have to learn how to adapt. Whether or not it’s adapt your product, adapt your sales pitch, adapt to your finances, whatever you have to learn how to adapt.
Austyn Guest: [00:18:56] Yes of course. Okay, so.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:18:59] And be cute, don’t it?
Austyn Guest: [00:19:00] Obviously. Um, if a celebrity could be your business mentor, who would it be and why? Alive or dead doesn’t matter. That gives you a lot of options. So take your time.
Heather Sexton: [00:19:14] I personally love Selena Gomez. I think that she not only built a career, but she’s. She’s building kids up and building adults up. She inspires me. Um, it’s really silly, but there’s a song called Who Says? And it’s just very, like, empowering. And it’s become my favorite song. And my three year old daughter song, and it’s just really.
Austyn Guest: [00:19:40] Like, I love it.
Heather Sexton: [00:19:41] Yeah. So it’s just all about like, who says you’re not perfect? Who says you’re not worth it? We all are. Nobody is better than the other. So I think that’s important in in an entrepreneurial mindset to to remind yourself that, yes, you might not have the experience yet, but starting is where everybody has.
Austyn Guest: [00:19:59] You will get there one day.
Heather Sexton: [00:20:00] Right? Right. Yeah. And she’s she’s done a lot of inspirational speeches. And just in general, she’s she keeps integrity at the forefront of, of her career.
Austyn Guest: [00:20:09] She, she just feels so real I love yeah. Yes. Real.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:20:14] I had three in my head. All right.
Speaker4: [00:20:17] Okay.
Austyn Guest: [00:20:17] Let’s say all three if you want.
Speaker4: [00:20:19] Okay. Yes. Go for it.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:20:21] My first one that came to head, I saw a meme or something on Facebook that said, um, got her name Jessica Alba?
Speaker4: [00:20:29] No.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:20:30] Not her. Um.
Speaker4: [00:20:32] Uh, sorry.
Heather Sexton: [00:20:34] I can’t help you.
Speaker4: [00:20:35] Yeah.
Austyn Guest: [00:20:36] She’s alive.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:20:36] She’s alive. Martha Stewart.
Speaker4: [00:20:39] Okay.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:20:39] Yes, Martha. I have to think about the vineyard. Um, said she started her business at 50. Mhm. Mind you, you’re too old. Too young to know about everything that went beforehand. But she has reinvented herself so many times. So many times not nothing was a failure to her. She’s reinvented herself with different target markets. Mhm. You know stay at home moms to older different demographics, younger demographics to even involved herself in the rap industry. Like she’s just went every.
Austyn Guest: [00:21:13] She’s went every direction you can go.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:21:14] And she’s I mean even if it seems like a failure it was a success.
Speaker4: [00:21:17] Yeah. So she learned.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:21:19] She learned. Yes. So I love that. And then just the fact that she does everything.
Austyn Guest: [00:21:24] It is impressive.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:21:25] Everything. Like gardening everything. Everything is a business. Yes. Um, my other one was Jessica Alba. Um, as a mom, a new mom. I loved how she found different things I would have never thought about to ease babies pains or how she reinvented the diaper. Like, um, yeah. How many prints of a diaper can you get?
Speaker4: [00:21:46] Yeah.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:21:48] And my last, I’m so conventional. One would be the Kardashians. Like.
Speaker4: [00:21:54] They are.
Austyn Guest: [00:21:54] They’re smart and they’re they’re smart.
Speaker4: [00:21:56] Yes.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:21:57] Like every every makeup brand, every. They started off with a small boutique, opened one.
Speaker4: [00:22:05] And I remember that California.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:22:07] Yeah. Then they had one in Miami and New York. Shut those down. It’s not working anymore. We’re going to shut it down. We’re going to start over. Try again. Yes. And then they went to Baby Boutique, started that over. They went to Skims and everything else and cosmetics and all that lip. It wasn’t I thought you said something.
Austyn Guest: [00:22:24] I said, I said it almost like blew up.
Speaker4: [00:22:26] Yeah. It all.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:22:27] Blew up. Yes. So from retail to fashion to makeup to shoes or whatever, even her little daughter gets into like, social media.
Speaker4: [00:22:37] North. Yes.
Austyn Guest: [00:22:38] North is an icon. Yes.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:22:40] And has the face for it too. Yeah. So yes, I my whole thing is all around those that are reinventing and trying new things. So I love that.
Austyn Guest: [00:22:50] That definitely works. Yeah. Okay. This is definitely a bit of a different question. It’s awesome.
Speaker4: [00:22:56] Though. That was.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:22:57] Really long.
Speaker4: [00:22:57] Sorry. You’re fine.
Austyn Guest: [00:22:59] All right.
Heather Sexton: [00:22:59] So back to me now. Yeah.
Austyn Guest: [00:23:01] If your business had a magical mascot, would it be a unicorn or a dragon and why? It’s very different from when we just asked, but.
Speaker4: [00:23:14] I.
Heather Sexton: [00:23:14] Would do a hybrid of both. I’m not going to say one or the other because I love the magic of a unicorn, but the fierceness of a dragon?
Speaker4: [00:23:22] Yeah.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:23:24] That was perfect. Yeah. Can we make but can we make the dragon, like, colored like a unicorn?
Speaker4: [00:23:28] Yes, yes.
Austyn Guest: [00:23:28] You can make it pretty.
Speaker4: [00:23:29] Yes, make it pretty and.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:23:31] Blow out glitter fire.
Speaker4: [00:23:32] Yes, yes. Of course. Okay.
Austyn Guest: [00:23:38] If you had to adopt an entrepreneurial alter ego, would you be a superhero or a villain? A super villain hero anti-hero. Anti-hero would work.
Speaker4: [00:23:52] Yeah.
Heather Sexton: [00:23:53] I again, I would be both because I love that the superheroes like their motivation is to help people. But I also love the selfishness of super villains and staying true to their goals as well.
Austyn Guest: [00:24:05] Of course.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:24:06] Yeah, yeah, this is where we can we connect.
Speaker4: [00:24:08] Yeah. They didn’t put their goals.
Austyn Guest: [00:24:10] Ahead of everybody else.
Speaker4: [00:24:11] Yes.
Austyn Guest: [00:24:11] Yeah. Okay, so another one. If you were seeking advice for business business decisions, would you be consulting a fortune cookie or a magic eight ball? Super important.
Speaker4: [00:24:25] Decision.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:24:25] Hands on the.
Heather Sexton: [00:24:27] You know what? I’m a troublemaker. I’m not gonna. I know I’m not gonna consult either. I’m going to consult. I have more confidence in myself. I consult myself a lot. But beyond that, I would consult other people that have, you know, had experience and learn from them as well.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:24:46] I think it depends on the situation. Yeah, situation.
Austyn Guest: [00:24:49] It would depend on your question.
Speaker4: [00:24:50] Like a, you know.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:24:52] It seems more random.
Speaker4: [00:24:54] Yeah. Yeah.
Chiquita Pollard: [00:24:55] I mean the, the cookies random too, but it’s more wiser eight balls. Like go with your heart. Do what you think.
Austyn Guest: [00:25:02] Yeah, yeah. It doesn’t give you a straightforward answer, right.
Speaker4: [00:25:05] Yeah, yeah.

Heather Sexton: [00:25:26] Yes. Um, I did want to mention that we’re, uh, just some things that we’re going to be doing in the future. Um, beyond adding courses, we want to also create a summer program that is in the works right now. Um, and we’ll get some information about that out to you guys soon. Um, but it will look a little different than the courses.
