[00:00:52] Speaker 1: So good morning everyone and welcome to our first ever US Smokeball Spark. I am extremely excited to be here. This is actually one of my favourite events that I do around the world all year. The reason it's one of my favourite events is because of you guys. Because actually that's why Smokeball exists. And it's really you who are the people doing real law with real people in real moments in their lives. The life of a lawyer at a small law firm means meeting people as they struggle through that mess in life. Now that's kind of what we call that Smokeball people law. You might have seen that over the last few months and we're very proud to come out and say that is our whole goal in empowering people and what you guys do.

[00:01:38] Speaker 2: When things are hard, they're challenging, you don't know which way to turn, you dig deep in yourself to find that spark for the next step. Ready last time. No matter what. Thanks very much everybody. I'm Sterling Hawkins.

[00:02:06] Speaker 1: Bye. Bye.
