Summary
What an honor to have the former governor of Tennessee, Bill Haslam, joining us today for a conversation about faith in the public square. Spending a lot of his adult life as a public servant, Governor Haslam has some really important thoughts on where government meets faith and the importance of who you are informing what you do. His new book Faithful Presence is a fascinating read about life in politics and where we all fit in a growing and flourishing community.

| 0:18.7 | I'm really happy to be here with you today. We have got a great show and store for you. |
| 0:24.1 | But before we get into today's conversation, I just want to take a moment and tell you |
| 0:27.8 | about one of our amazing partners, BetterHelp. We talk all about therapy pretty regularly |
| 0:32.5 | around here. And that's because I think it's super important for all of us to prioritize |
| 0:36.7 | our mental and emotional health. If there are things going on that are causing you to |
| 0:40.9 | feel stuck or that are interfering with your health and happiness, BetterHelp is here |
| 0:45.6 | for you. BetterHelp will assess your needs and match you with your own licensed professional |
| 0:50.1 | therapist who you can connect with in a convenient, safe, and private online environment. |
| 0:54.7 | I love that you can send your therapist a message anytime and you'll get timely and thoughtful |
| 0:58.9 | responses and you can start communicating in 24 hours or less. You can schedule video |
| 1:03.7 | or phone sessions as often as weekly. It really matters to the team at BetterHelp that |
| 1:08.5 | they facilitate great therapeutic matches. So they make it easy and free to change counselors |
| 1:13.2 | if you need to. I think that's really important. And the testimonials on their site provide |
| 1:18.4 | a lot of insight into how it all works and how they are helping people just like us all |
| 1:22.8 | over the world. BetterHelp has therapists specializing so many different disciplines, |
| 1:27.4 | which means they have someone who can help with exactly what you're facing. There are |
| 1:31.6 | licensed professional counselors who specialize in things like depression or self-esteem, |
| 1:36.5 | stress, grief, anxiety, family troubles, and more. It's not self-help and it's not a |
| 1:41.5 | crisis hotline, but it is convenient, professional, affordable counseling and anything you share |
| 1:46.6 | is completely confidential. I want you to start living a healthier life today. So as |
