| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Strong Women Podcast, where we explore a deeper understanding of the humanity, value, intellect, and creativity of women. |
| 0:12.1 | I'm your host, Erin Kunkel. |
| 0:14.0 | And I'm your co-host, Sarah Stone Street. |
| 0:28.8 | Our guest today, Cheryl Batchelder, is the former CEO of Popeye's Louisiana Kitchen and has been involved at the executive level in the restaurant industry for most of her career, |
| 0:34.6 | which, by the way, you will get to hear what she orders through the |
| 0:37.8 | Popeye's drive-through. So stay tuned for that. During our conversation with Cheryl, we talk about |
| 0:43.1 | vocation, calling, and giftedness. Wherever you find your sphere of influence, this discussion, |
| 0:50.0 | I think, will be beneficial and encouraging to you. I pray that at the end, you will be excited about |
| 0:57.5 | digging deeper into your design and your vocation. I know I felt really encouraged by Cheryl, |
| 1:04.7 | and in fact, I wanted to take a pause and actually have Cheryl help me figure out my design |
| 1:09.8 | and purpose in life, but I didn't, so you're not going to have to hear all about me. |
| 1:13.8 | But you're going to see that she is just a wonderfully honest woman, and I think you're really going to enjoy this conversation. |

| 1:43.7 | I've heard Cheryl talk several times, but I actually got to sit and have dinner with her just a few weeks ago in Michigan, which is where she is right now. |
| 1:47.6 | And I just loved getting to know her over that one hour dinner. It was great. But one of the things that stood out to me that I was |
| 1:52.6 | telling Erin is that I just was cracking up at you and your husband. You have this lovely, |
| 1:59.8 | healthy, feistyness with each other. And that is totally how |
| 2:04.6 | Aaron and Brett, her husband relate. It's totally how John and I relate. And so I just loved hearing |
| 2:10.3 | you guys like kind of tease each other and laugh together and didn't go too far. You know, |
| 2:16.7 | it stayed nice, but it was feisty and I liked that. |
| 2:20.2 | So thanks for coming on with us today, Cheryl. It's a pleasure to be with you. We enjoyed that |
| 2:24.8 | dinner as well. We always enjoy meeting couples that have fun relationships. So why don't you start, |
