Hi everyone, welcome to Add Home with Sally. I'm Sally Clarkson and I have the biggest

privilege in the world to be with so many friends from all over the world who join me every

week to listen to my stories, inspiration, biblical encouragement. And I am just so glad

that you're here today. Thanks so much for joining me.

Hi everyone, it's Sally Clarkson and I am here in my wonderful home. I'm so happy to be home in my own home, my own

bad, my own everything. As they say, there's no place like home. I mentioned to you all last week. I think I think

last week actually was the last podcast of the book. And I just want to thank all of you. I've

been getting so many encouraging comments about our book, the Lifegiving Parent. And so many of you

have written to me. Thank you so much. And Clan, I just hope that we can continue to be encouraging to

you together. And he's even promised to be on some more podcasts along the way. But I am here

tonight. I came home actually a part of why I came home early was that I wanted to be with my

leadership team. We planned this year ago. So this is my national leadership team who worked very

closely with me to help with the blog, the podcast, the conferences, the books, the launches, and

social media. I could never do everything that it looks like I do without them. So how about everybody

says hello. And we have been actually very excited. We've been here for three days planning, dreaming,

thinking about what we wanted to do to be of encouragement to. We love women. I do love women.

I was going to read to you a couple of fun quotes tonight that just talk about why some of the things

I thought they were really cute. Here is to strong women. May we know them? May we be them?

May we raise them? And that's a little bit of why we get together because we love to see women

flourish. We love to see them flourish in many ways emotionally in their roles as moms, as

women, as wives, just that we really feel like women are the civilizations of the world. And yet

I know all of the women that are here are a lot like me. I just longed for help and encouragement.
