This is an I-Heart podcast.

You're listening to I Choose Me with Jenny Girl.

Hello, everyone.

Welcome to I Choose Me, a podcast about the choices we make.

So this week's guest is not only birthing a new book,

she is also a brand new grandmother. But welcoming Weston Joseph is not her only new beginning.

From the heartbreak of waking up to a marriage in crisis to the treacherous work of rebuilding

a life. Jen Hatmaker has walked through fire and come out stronger, more vibrant, and wide

awake. Join Jen and me as we laugh and cry through choosing ourselves the hard way and reaping the rewards

that only come from fierce self-awareness and uncomfortable healing. Oh, I'm so excited to talk to you,

Jen. You have no idea. Okay, but first, all things aside, you are a haddy. Oh my my god this is the most important thing we could discuss

it really is so i've heard women tell me in time like lately more and more how becoming a grandmother

has changed their life oh my god how does it feel it feel for you? It's so, it's so insane.

This is my oldest son and his wife. So this is first grandbaby. And in our family, this is first kid,

first son, first grandkid, first great grandkid, first nephew. Like, he's doomed.

Like, he's absolutely doomed.

And we have this massive family prepared to over respond, over attend to him.

I mean, it'll just, I don't suspect we'll have any restraint at all.

And he's perfect, which is great news for us. We got a perfect baby.

Yes. Congrats. Thank you. We're dreaming over here. I bet Weston Joseph. West and Joseph. I mean,

I can't handle it. Like, and these are new parents, if you know what I'm saying? Like,

they're the young version of parents.
