0:00.0	Hey friends, I'm Jess Connolly. I'm an author, a coach, a Bible teacher, and a local church leader,
0:07.0	and I love talking to real people who know what it means to have full lives, but also want to walk in abundance.
0:14.5	This podcast is for you. It's not my podcast. It's ours. It's for people who crave lighthearted conversations and deeply
0:23.4	spiritual truth. It's for people who are busy, tired, waiting, growing, dreaming, working,
0:30.4	or praying about what's next. Wherever you're listening from, if it's quiet, mundane, or busy,
0:38.8	I am praying for you and I'm so glad you're here from, if it's quiet, mundane, or busy, I am praying for you,

1:39.4	feeling stuck, feeling like you're in the wrong spot, or like you're not making something of your life.
1:47.1	No matter your season, I am on your team today.
1:51.2	Let me be your summer coach.
1:54.5	If you're spending the next few months in a cubicle, carpooling kids, or even if nothing
1:59.9	is changing in your life at all, this episode is for you.
2:05.9	Let's make the most of our summer.
