0:00.0	Hello and welcome back to the podcast where you are invited for lighthearted conversations
0:05.5	about things that matter as you seek to live your most meaningful, beautiful, and joyful life.
0:10.8	I'm your host, Dr. Edie Wadsworth, and I hope you enjoy your stay here at the House of Joy.
0:17.0	Hi, everybody. Welcome back to House of Joy. I'm so glad you're here today. I'm so happy to be here
0:21.7	today. You are in for a treat because we are going to talk about the cozy habits that changed how my
0:27.6	life feels and I want you to steal these. These are good ones. Here's the thing, you guys, I think I
0:35.8	am one of those people that is obsessed with creating a certain atmosphere

1:28.4	to both, the grandkids and the grandparents.
1:31.3	And one of the things that he talked about was that one of the things that your grandbabies
1:36.9	will remember is how your house felt and smelled.
1:42.2	And it got me thinking like, oh my gosh, because people are always telling me,
1:45.6	like, actually, one of my really good friends came into my house last week and she goes, oh my gosh, what is that smell? Your house smells so good. And I was like, well, I don't know. We're diffusing because, you know, I run these diffusers all the time. I said we're diffusing pink champagne. She goes, I don't think it's that.
