Hey, hey, this is Allie and welcome to the Allie Worthington show.

It's where we gather, learn, share our stories, and have a great time.

Every week I'll be chatting with a friend who I know, who I like and I respect,

and I want to learn something from.

And after we have that discussion, we are going to have coaching time.

So I'm going to be

answering your questions about life, about faith, and about business. Welcome to the show. I'm with the

amazing Francesca Battiselli today. You may know her as a Grammy Award winning musician, an artist of the

year. But we get to really get to know her as the woman behind the persona, just like us balancing

career and family, what it's like to write music, what it's like to bring creativity to the

world. And what's it like to balance that with four kids? I think you're going to love this

interview and you're going to love her. And then after we talk to

Francesca, I'm answering your questions about life and faith and business and our coaching time together.

The live question this week is from Mary. And she said, how do you handle Christmas with such a big

family without going crazy? Great question. The faith question this week is from Jessica, who said, what type of church do you go to?

Do you prefer a certain denomination? If so, why? I feel like that's a dangerous question, but I'm going to answer it.

And the business question is from Amy. And she said, what is Blistom? Okay, these are all fun. I'm excited to answer them, but I'm really

excited to tell you about Blistam at the end of the show. So be sure that you hang around for that,

because this is the first time I've talked about it on the podcast, and I'm so excited.

Now, I hope you've already picked up your copy of the Year of Living Happy. It makes such a great Christmas

gift. You can give it to teachers. You can give it to your sister. You can give it to your neighbor

that's a little bit grumpy and needs a happier attitude in life. You can get it now for gifts
