Summary
Sometimes, you meet someone with whom you instantly click, and it feels like you’ve known each other for decades.
That’s how it felt when I found my friend Kat online. We started chatting via DMs, and a couple of years later, we got the chance to hang out face-to-face when she came to stay at our house for my book launch party for You Bet Your Stretch Marks.
Our conversations during our time together ranged from the ridiculous to the deeply theological (and everything in between).
I knew Kat would make the perfect guest on the podcast for a blend of informal chatting and meaty biblical encouragement.
And I was right.
I know you’ll love Kat as much as I do, and I pray you’ll be emboldened to view motherhood with fresh eyes of enjoyment as a result.
