Welcome to the Raising Boys and Girls podcast. I'm Sissy Gough.

I'm David Thomas. And I'm Melissa Trevathan.

And we are so glad you've set us out a few minutes to spend with us today.

In each episode of this podcast, we'll share some of what we're learning in the work we do with kids and families on a daily basis at Days Are Counseling in Nashville, Tennessee.

Our goal is to help you care for the kids in your life with a little more understanding, a little more practical help, and a whole lot of hope.

So pull up a chair and join us on this journey from our little yellow house to yours.

David, do you remember when we had Emily Lay from Simplified on the podcast last season?

I sure do. What a fun episode. She is delightful.

I love her story, how she was trying to do it all as a working mom with dings and buzzes constantly controlling where her attention wise each day, but she made a decision to do it a different way.

Yes, and it's made all the difference in her own life and the lives of hundreds of thousands of women around the world.

I love Emily's heart and Simplified's mission to equip, inspire and empower women with tools and systems that will simplify their lives.

I know that's music to your ears as an in your grand one.

You know me so well. Their cornerstone product, the Simplified Planner is so beautiful and incredibly practical.

You don't even have to be an in your grand one to love this planner.

And if you're not a paper planner person, Simplified has tons of other products that will help you simplify your life too.

Notebooks, mugs, baby books, art prints, journals, and more.

And every single one of Simplified's products are beautiful to see everything Simplified has to offer and start simplifying your life today.
