Summary
I'm betting you know who this lovely lady is but in case you don't, here goes: She is a wife and mom, a writer and a podcaster. She is also a "fake counselor" as she says at a girls school which could not be a more perfect job for her. She's one of my personal favorites so I had to try really hard not to be super gushy about that during the interview. Don't worry though, I let all my awkward out as soon as we weren'trecording. what we chat about: the concept of gleaning in our everyday moments things that will leave a relationship dead in the water what makes relationships thrive how service looks different than you might think

| 0:20.4 | going to keep coming so I might as well get a new plan. God promises if we |
| 0:24.5 | persevere through our daily struggles, our character will be built and will end up |

| 1:25.2 | actively at work in their lives. Y'all God is not weird. Sometimes weird people |
