0:00.0	Hi, Latter Day struggles, friends and fans.
0:03.1	We know that navigating a faith crisis can feel overwhelming, especially when it impacts our closest relationships, our parents, our partners, and our kids.
0:13.2	That's why Valerie has created two online self-paced classes to help.
0:17.3	The first is a couple's guide to faith crisis and expansion.
0:20.7	This class is here for a partner
0:21.9	or couple who want to navigate faith shifts with mutual respect and deeper connection. Next is
0:26.8	a family's guide to mixed faith parenting. This class offers tools to help parents develop
0:30.7	greater harmony and understanding when belief differences arise within our families. Both classes are
0:35.7	packed with helpful tools and perspectives that can
0:37.9	give you hope and a way forward. So if you're looking for a little guidance on this,

1:23.4	priority because Mother's Day is coming up. And if all the stars align, we will be featuring
1:29.9	our conversation, which is going to be a four-part series, right around Mother's Day. And for a
1:36.2	very good reason, because we are going to be talking a lot about the divine feminine and specifically
1:42.7	your beautiful research and scholarship in this topic and the book
1:47.7	that you wrote called The Mother Tree. So I'm just so excited to have you here. And maybe what we'll do
1:54.8	before we jump right into the book is I will share out with all of you. I was reading this book.
1:58.5	Around this time last year, I had just had a surgery,
2:03.3	and so I couldn't do my normal running and biking and weightlifting exercises. So what I actually
