Thank you, Nate, and good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for joining our second quarter earnings call. I'm pleased to report that we delivered a solid second quarter, growing sales 4% in constant currency, reflecting continued momentum across our key strategic initiatives. Our sales growth was driven by nearly all our geographic regions, led by 5% growth in Asia Pacific, driven by strong consultant engagement. and in North America where digital sales increased 26% fueled by continued momentum with new and returning customers. Growth was supported by continued customer acquisition, expansion of our digital capabilities, increased adoption of our auto ship subscription programs and solid consultant growth. Strong execution, disciplined cost management and ongoing productivity initiatives also drove further gross margin expansion. The second quarter marked the beginning of our investments and our vision for growth. That's our name for our strategic plan to accelerate our longer-term growth rates. These investments include continued expansion of our digital business, enhanced digital tools for our consultant base, deeper penetration of existing markets, and expansion into new markets. We believe these investments, combined with our strong business model and disciplined execution, will lead to sustainable Accelerated Long-Term Growth. I will update you on the progress we have made in developing our vision for growth a bit later in the call after our Chief Accounting Officer, John Lenoy, provides the details of our Q2 performance.
