Hey friends and welcome to the Happy Hour with Jamie Ivy Podcasts.

I'm your host Jamie and I'm so glad you're here.

Each week on this show, I invite a friend to join me and we chat about the big things

in life, the little things in life and everything in between.

Hey y'all, welcome to the Happy Hour.

I'm your host Jamie and I'm really glad you're here for this episode on the very last

day of August of 2022.

Every time a new month comes over, I feel like, wow, we get like a whole new fresh start.

It's why I love Mondays.

It's why I love the first of the month and I want to tell you, the show that we have for

you today is a perfect way to end the month of August.

My friend Sharon Hoddie Miller is here today.

She came in the studio and she sat down with me and we talked all about a book that she

released this past month.

Sharon's book is called The Cost of Control.

Now we crave it, the anxiety it gives us and the real power that God promises.

You guys, as I was thinking through this interview before I talked to Sharon, I really thought

I don't know that there's anyone that could say I don't have a struggle with control.

And really, she walks through in this book about why we crave it, how it only gives us

anxiety and that there's actually an alternative that we have real power that God promises.

If you feel like any of that resonates with you, which I'm raising my hand, it resonates

with me a whole lot.
