My friend Ashley Gad is joining me on the Work and Play podcast today to talk about a new

collaborative book that she is spearheading called You're in Good Company.

It is a book on friendship, motherhood, hospitality, and showing up, and I cannot wait for you

to hear our conversation.

Your to hear our conversation. You're listening to Work and Play with Nancy Ray, episode 308.

Much of our daily lives can be divided into two categories, work and play.

Simply put, that's where our life and our legacy take place.

This is a podcast all about learning to work and play well,

which leads to a healthy soul and a fulfilling life. Listen in.

Before I jump into our conversation, I just want to say I know we're talking through abundance

and authority this month. And I cannot think of a better way to talk about abundance than talking

about friendship. I think about my life. And the older I get, the more abundance is tied to

relationships and experience and the less it's tied to material things.

And today's conversation is very practical as we share about Ashley Gads' new book.

You're in good company.

But it's also hopefully going to be very encouraging and inspiring to you to know that it's

never too late to make deep friendships and that is where the

good stuff of life takes place. I can't wait for you to hear our conversation. Ashley, it is such a

gift to have you back on the Work and Play podcast. Welcome. Thank you so much for having me again.

I'm so thrilled to be here.

Okay. For anyone listening who maybe didn't catch our last episode or doesn't know you,

can we just start by you telling us a little bit about you and what you do?
