What's up, well, that's good fan. Welcome back to the world. That's good podcast. Happy Wednesday, everybody. I hope you're having a great week. It's about to get a lot better because we have a very special guest on the show. She's probably not a stranger to any of y'all.

Um, but maybe some of the things you're doing, you haven't heard about and you need to hear about them because it is so good and so inspiring. I have Miss Kathy Lee, give her it on the show today. Welcome to what's good podcast.

Not only thank you so much. And you know who first off, who would want me to be sending all kinds of love is Miss Angie Clawson.

Oh, she loves your whole family so much. So love from love from Franklin Tennessee and Angie Clawson and me.

Oh my goodness. I love it. And I love Franklin Tennessee. You know, I live there for three years. I don't live there anymore, but it will always hold a special place in my heart. So I'm glad it is a special place. It is, isn't it?

It really is. It's so special. Well, I'm so excited for this conversation. I said it a little bit in the prayer before this, but you're a huge inspiration to me and to so many people. And I just love what you're doing nowadays.

And I can't wait to talk about some of the things. But before we get into everything and your story, I always ask everyone that comes on this podcast. The same question.

And that is, it's a big one. What is the best piece of advice you've ever been given? And I know that might sound like a lot, but it's a great way to get us started.

Well, probably the biggest influence on my entire life was my father and very, very early in my in my life. He said to me, honey, find something you love to do and then figure out a way to get paid for it.

That's good. And and I and I and he was right because he understood that too many people settle for less than their life's purpose.

Yeah. And what I wanted to do was make movies and make music and dance and perform. And that's that those are the dreams that got it put in my heart in my mother's womb.

Long before I was even formed in that dark place that Bible talks about in in Psalms. And and he was right. Once I started just truly going down that path of what, what makes you feel the most alive.

And I know that can sound not very spiritual, but the point of it is it's deeply spiritual. Yeah. Jehovah Elohim. Jehovah Elohim is God creator.

And he created us to be co-creators with him. And when I am doing that, I am at my most God-like. When I am closest to the God that I serve and love.

When I am doing what he put me on this planet to do. And and he knew it long before I knew it. I wrote a little book for children a few years ago called Hello, Little Dreamer.

And it was all about how don't don't take your dreams for granted. The ones your dreaming since your childhood are there for a purpose.

They're God placed dreams. Yeah. And when we let other voices drown those dreams out and say, no, no, no, no, no, your father was a firefighter. Your grandfather was a firefighter. You need to be a firefighter.

Well, I'm not my father or my grandfather. And God might have a very specific and original and unique plan for my life.

I think we as parents, because we love our children so much and we're well meaning, but we try to dream our children's dreams for them. Yeah. And that's getting in the way of the Holy Spirit's dreams for us. Yeah.

And our children. Yeah. So I've been very careful as my children grew. And now I have my first little grandchild. And I won't be that kind of grandmother that does, you know, I won't do that because I find it unscindly in nobody cares.

We care. You gotta do it. You gotta have a little joke to start out. It's so good. I love that you're that grandmother. My mom, I'm really not. I rarely post a picture. I'm just not that way. But anyway, it's a little less. Yeah. I want, I want that little guy's dreams to come true. It's good.

The ones that God has placed in him in his mother's womb before he was totally formed. Those dreams were there for God's purpose. And then I want to get out of the way of them except to say, you know, sweetie, Frankie, what do you want to do? Instead of what do you want to do when you grow up? That's what's the whole basis of that book.
