Transcript, please. Part of my neurodiverse wiring makes it very difficult to watch or listen to a vid or recording. There is speech-to-text software available to do this. I so enjoy your content, and it’s frustrating not to have diverse needs met here. Thanks for considering this need, and point of view!
Thank you – this is in the works but my helper hasn’t gotten to the old videos yet. I’m not capable of doing them myself.
