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

I'm your host, Mackenzie Coppanroro from Cultivating The Lovely.com and bold turquoise across pretty much all social media.

And I am so excited to have my very good old friend with me here today.

It's Carrie Danker.

We're going to talk all about how she has developed an amazing practice of biblical meditation

and how you can get involved with it this summer.

And with me, it's going to be so much fun and just so deep and real

But before we get there, I did want to mention a couple of things because I've been having a lot of people reaching out to me lately who maybe haven't listened to the podcast in a while or hadn't

coming back and they're wondering what's going on? Why is McKenzie living at her parents' house

and making comments about those kinds of things? And so I just wanted to briefly touch on

this because it is a delicate subject and there's only so much that I can say.

But I did have to leave a very destructive and difficult marriage about nine months ago.

And so since that time, I've been working to get my career off the ground to be able to support my family.

I haven't been receiving the child

support that I am supposed to be receiving. It's been a really difficult time. And I've recently

been saddled with a lot more legal fees than I had initially been expecting. So that's kind of what's

going on. And we're also offering a way for you to reach out and help me and my family if you are so

called to. I hate to even say anything about it because I really want to earn what you guys give me,

but I'm at a place where I kind of have no choice but to say if you are called to help,
