You're listening to episode 44 brought to you by the I Will Meditate Bible Reading and

Meditation Guide from Stonesupe for 5.com.

Welcome to Cultivating the Lovely, the podcast for Real moms who are seeking Jesus, trying to live their roles well, and seeking to add a little bit more loveliness to their lives, even in just the little moments.

I'm your host, Mackenzie Monroe from bold turquoise.com and Cultivating the Lovely.com. And today, I am so excited for this episode. It's the first in our Christmas season after Thanksgiving

and it has a guest who I've been wanting on the show for a very long time. And that is

Kat Lee. You guys probably know her from her years of being in the blogging community and

podcasting. I know she is one of my podcasting icons and gurus that I look

up to. So it's so fun to have her on the show because it's just fun to chat with other podcasters.

They know how to carry out a great conversation. And she was a blast to talk with, especially

about her brand new book, Hello Mornings. For a quick second, though,

I do want to mention something that I am so appreciative of, and that is all of you who have

been leaving ratings and reviews and iTunes. You guys, that really helps the podcast to gain ground.

And if you haven't heard yet, if you're not over in the Facebook group, in the new year,

we will actually be switching to a weekly show.

So I'm so excited to be bringing on three fun new co-hosts who will be joining me throughout

the month as we bring you new content.

And I will also be having the regular interviews and that sort of thing.

But it will be interspersed with these co-hosts who are

just awesome and so much fun. I'm so excited to bring you guys their episodes. We've already got

a lot of them recorded and I think you guys are going to love it. In partnership with bringing

on the new co-hosts and changing the format to weekly, we are also going to be launching

Patreon. And that is going to give you even more extra content
