Summary

You do NOT want to miss this episode with the guest I’ve been trying to get on the podcast for YEARS - my very own husband, Tom Hoffman. Listen to us riff about how we reconnected decades after we had first met (he was one of my grade-school bullies!), what it was like trying to date while getting a divorce at the same time, what our wedding was like (it includes pie, fries, and kids running around everywhere), what life has been like since then, and our long-awaited honeymoon run down. Tom has been the biggest unexpected blessing to me and to our whole family, and I’m so excited to get to share our story together for your listening entertainment (and education). Key Points From This Episode: - How I reconnected with one of my childhood bullies. - Why I thought Tom was gay. Seriously, I really did. - How we went about dating while my soon-to-be-ex-husband was dragging the divorce out. - What our wedding was like as a Catholic and a Baptist (including our very fun reception with my very crazy children). - How Tom has been vital in our healing and growth as a family. - Our honeymoon destination and story (five years after our wedding)!

Welcome to episode 207 of the Flying Free Podcast and today I have a very

0:29.4

interesting guest with me someone who I had asked if he would come on the show about maybe two

0:36.8

years ago and he said categorically no he was not interested in doing that.

0:42.6

And I thought I would reach out to him

0:44.8

and see again if he might be interested in doing it now.

0:48.2

A couple more years have gone by,

0:49.8

maybe he'd be more comfortable with it.

0:51.9

And guess what? He said yes. I want to introduce

0:55.8

you to my husband Tom Hoffman. Tom welcome to the show. Thank you.

1:02.6

He's a little giggly today

1:05.7

because he doesn't usually do this.

1:07.9

So this is gonna be a very off-the-cuff interview.

1:12.1

Well, it's not really an interview, it's going to be a conversation about how

Tom and I met and we've never, now I've told a few little details to the people inside of

1:21.9

my Flying Free Sisterhood program and you know that's

like a circle of people and we sit around and we share stories so they've heard some of my stories

1:30.7

okay but I've never publicly told the story about how Tom and I met and got

married the day after my divorce was final. I know, scandalous. I bet you want to know the details. That's
