0:00.0	Hey friends, welcome to the Raising Boys and Girls Podcast.
0:12.6	I'm Sissy Gough.
0:13.7	And I'm David Thomas.
0:14.9	And I'm Melissa Trevathan.
0:16.6	And we're so glad you joined us for this conversation.
0:20.1	Let's dive in. Making our way from a sleepy surf town in Northern California to Music City in 2001, singer-songwriter Joy Williams
0:35.5	has walked through several chapters of life already and she's only just getting
0:39.6	started. You may know her from solo music like her latest Grammy-nominated album Front Porch that we love.
0:47.0	Or you may know her from her current radio show, Southern Craft on Apple Music,

0:56.4	duo The Civil Wars. She's toured with the likes of Adele, has written and performed

1:35.4	and blending a family of five children, one of whom was just born a few months ago.
1:41.5	We are so excited for you to listen to this podcast with our wise
1:45.8	insightful, delightful friend Joy Williams.
1:49.5	We are just so honored you said yes to doing this with us we've been dreaming about it for a long time.
1:54.3	I hope you know how much we both think the world of you. I mean respect to you so much, like you so much,
2:00.6	enjoy you so much. Thank you. A gift to get us in with you. Well, thanks for loving the mess. Yeah, I appreciate it. We're in there with you. Yeah, right? All of us together. I know that's what makes it good though you know I always say that
2:14.2	I'm a recovering perfectionist so I will never forget someone saying if you if you
