Howdy folks welcome back to the podcast today I get to learn what 10 things there are that Katie cannot live without and she is going to do the same she's going to learn the same thing about me.

She's going to learn which items I consider to be essential to my happiness and well-being here

on earth. And guess what? You get to hear what those items are as well. You're in on this conversation.

And folks, let me tell you I'm grateful for each and every one of you and for especially as of late

we've been able to meet more of our listeners in person.

And Katie, we were literally saying this, what, an hour ago to some people that we know,

how blessed we are by the, I guess, like-minded families that we get to meet throughout the country when we're traveling and people

that introduce you, those of you that introduce yourself to us and let us know that you listen to the

podcast. We're inspired by you. the the caliber of families and of couples you know the way you're raising your children

The way you're being intentional in your marriage and investing into your communities really is inspiring to us.

And so thank you to those of you that, you know,

have introduced yourself and said hi and encouraged us

and what we're doing.

We love what we're doing. So the fact that it encourages others is just

a blessing and it's humbling so thank you and for those of you that haven't been able to leave a

rating or review on iTunes or Spotify we would love it if you're able to do that because that's what helps

this podcast reach more people and honestly just sharing it with friends that's actually

every time we meet people in person. Wow here I go on and on. Talk about the longest intro ever.

I'm always blown away with how when we meet people

in person listen to the podcast,

our podcast was recommended to them by a friend or a family member.

And that really seems to be the way that this podcast has grown very very organically
