I thought of all these things that both grandmothers told me over the year, stories they shared, recipes.

And I thought, if I had had something like this back then, can you imagine what I could have captured? Welcome to Cultivating the Lovely. I'm your host, Mackenzie Kappa. You can find out more about the podcast at

cultivating thelovely.com, in our Yellowbrick Road membership community at patreon.com slash cultivating the lovely and in our

Facebook group. I would also love to connect with you on Instagram where you can find me at

McKenzie Kappa. That's M-A-K-E-N-Z-I-E-K-O-P-P-A. Ladies, this week on the show we have a little

bit of a change of pace, but something that I think is really important because I think, especially as moms, we tend to be the memory keepers in our family's lives.

And I think we also have kind of a responsibility to capture the memories of some of the older generations that maybe aren't doing so

as well as we would like them to. I know that I would like their stories preserved. And my guests

today have a really wonderful way of doing it. It's Missy Broadway and Cynthia Duke Bennett,

and they have a brand new app called My Life in 10 Minutes.

It's really innovative. I think it's really smart the way that they've done it. I've checked it out.

And it was really fun to have them on the show to be able to chat about it with them.

So that's what we have coming up in today's episode. But first, of course, I would like to get you into Patreon, ladies, because we are having so much fun with the

challenges going on right now. As you know, or you may have heard, I moved last week, which is

crazy. I can't believe it finally happened after all this time. And a lot of these challenges

I'm using for myself to get us in this new rhythm of living

on our own and planning our meals a little bit differently and establishing our house and

getting it organized and all those things. So all throughout second quarter, our workbook and

Patreon focuses on weekly challenges to help us all get a little bit better handle on our lives

because I know that typically by this time in the school year, but we also kind of come off a little

bit a lot of the time. So these workbook challenges are meant to help us get back on track and do it

together in community. There's an accountability there. And plus it's just more fun when you do it with friends, old or new.
