I'm your host, Annie F. Downs. I'm really happy to be here with you today. We've got a great show in store. It is day five of the 2021 Christmas party with 12 days in a row of Christmas coming your way.

We all like Minglin at a lovely Christmas holiday. Sware taking in the beautiful decor pause and have a chat with new friends here and there. If you missed days one through four with the deck, the hallmark guys, Portia Williams, Keaton Claus, Becca Stevens, be sure to check those out so much fun and wisdom.

Everything in between those episodes. The soundtrack of our party is Little Drummer Boy from for King and Country. It's from their album, a drummer boy Christmas. It's so good. You also be sure to check that out.

And I have it on good authority that Santa's planning on stopping by the studio tomorrow so we can chat before he starts his world tour.

So today is the last day to send in questions for Jolly old Saint Nick just follow the link in the show notes to share your questions.

Before we dive into today's conversation, I want to take a moment to share about one of our incredible partners. This podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp Online Therapy.

We talk about BetterHelp pretty regularly here at that sounds fun. And this month we're discussing some of the stigmas around mental health. For example, so many people have either been taught or have bought into the idea that mental health shouldn't be a part of normal life, but that's not true.

We take care of our bodies with the gym, the doctor and nutrition. We should be focusing on our minds just as much.

I can share, oh, where would I be without consistent support of my counselor over the years? I think you'd find it really helpful to connect with the therapist through BetterHelp. BetterHelp is customized online therapy that offers video phone, and even live chat sessions with your therapist.

So you don't have to see anyone on camera if you don't want to. It's much more affordable than in person therapy and you can be matched with the therapist under 48 hours.

and see why over 2 million people have used better help online therapy.
