I'm Emily P. Freeman and welcome to The Next Right Thing. You're listening to episode 370.

This is a podcast about making decisions, but also about making a life. If you struggle with

decision fatigue, chronic hesitation, or if you just need a few minutes away from the constant

stream of information and the sometimes delightful but distracting hum of

entertainment, you're in the right place for discerning your next right thing.

I'm an author, a spiritual director, and an occasional workshop leader.

I live in North Carolina with my family, and through my work, I've helped thousands of

spiritually thoughtful people overcome decision fatigue so that they can discern

their next right thing in faith, work, and life. Today I'm so glad to welcome Kate Strickler,

the creator behind the extremely popular blog and Instagram account, Nap Time Kitchen. She's known

for her down-to-earth practicality and home and parenting hacks.

And when she isn't working or wrangling all those children, you can find her in her happy place, experimenting in the kitchen.

Kate lives in Charleston, South Carolina, with her husband, Nate, and their four children.

And I'm so glad to have her join us today.

Now she has written her very first book.

It's called I Just Wish I Had a Bigger Kitchen,

and other lies I think will make me happy.

In it, she shares small habits and mindset shifts

to find contentment and joy in life.

We'll talk more about that and more.

I hope you'll listen in.

Music in life. We'll talk more about that and more. I hope you'll listen in. Welcome to the next right thing, Kate. I'm so glad to have you here. Thank you. Thank you so
