We friends welcome. Today's conversation was so moving. I had to take a break because

I was tearing up and my voice was cracking. Okay, and it's moving in a good way. It's not

moving in a sad way of like 25 puppies got killed. It's moving in a good way. I think

you need to stick around and listen to this conversation with author Cynthia Covey-Huller

and her book, Live Life in Crescendo. Let's dive in. I'm sharing. Yeah. Here's where

it gets interesting. I am really excited to welcome Cynthia Covey-Huller to the show

today. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you, Sharon. I'm so happy to be on your

show. Tell everybody a little bit about the book that you have co-authored with your

dad who has passed away about 10 years ago. Tell us a little bit more about this book

and what it's been like to work on it. Well, it's been an awesome experience. A long

journey I could say over 10 years. Actually, it was clear back in 2008 when I was talking

to my dad about the different books that he was things that he was involved in. And he

told me about his mission statement, his personal mission statement the last 10 years in his

life, which was this idea of live life in Crescendo. And I love that and really resonated

with it. So what does it mean to live life in Crescendo? What does that mean?

Okay. Are you music, Lauren? Yes. I know what a musical Crescendo is. Yes.

Yes. And I'm not musical. Most of our family isn't. My mom had a beautiful singing

voice, but my dad didn't know. But he chose Crescendo because of the sign and what it means,

the musical symbol. And that is a Crescendo. As you know, when you go to a concert or something,

it builds in intensity and power and strength and grandeur. And to hear a Crescendo is amazing.

It keeps going. It keeps expanding. And the opposite is the menu endo, which is it starts

strong maybe and then it slows down in energy and power and strength and eventually stops
