We tried out a Zoom meeting for the first time to chat with Jennifer about the book.
This was my first Zoom book chat, and I made a lot of mistakes. The biggest one is that the microphone that I thought I had hooked up correctly, wasn’t.
So you can’t really hear me, and I also did not set up the transcriptions correctly from Zoom from the start.
BUT: Jennifer is a pro and had her mic set perfectly, and when I uploaded the video file to YouTube, the auto captions took over.
I think you will enjoy this.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/aICDexTf7YQ?t=27″ align=”center” title=”An Interview with Jennifer Johannesen”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I am so grateful to Jennifer for this meeting.
