My guest today is a former chief clerk for the Montana House of Representatives and she served

under three different speakers of the House. She's currently a homeschool mom who got off the bench and

onto the battlefield when she realized the need for wonderful children's books and so

she started her own bookstore it's called Big Sky Life books you guys are going to love this

interview Lindsay Rogondui joins me on the show today and we're going to talk all things, books for children,

her favorite Christmas books and we even have a special episode for Happy Hour.

Stick around. I think you're going to be encouraged. Right, so Lindsay, welcome to the show.

Right, so Lindsay, welcome to the show.

Thank you, thank you so much for having me.

It's great to meet you.

I'm excited, a fellow homeschool mom, another off the bench,

a woman who's been involved in politics.

You and I must have been separated at birth at some point

oh absolutely absolutely I think it's true let's jump into this because this is your

first time obviously on my show and actually I have some of your books at my house that are in my Christmas stash which I will be talking

about at a later time but I'm excited that you're here because like I said before it's

encouraging for me to be around people who are not just

looking at the culture and ringing their hands and complaining on social media and

you know locking yourself up in your house which you very well could I mean you live in a really

beautiful part of the world you're actually out there getting stuff done and so

it's interesting to me I'm looking at your you know a little bit of your bio here, the former chief clerk for the Montana House of Representatives,

you served under three speakers of the House, that's really impressive,
