| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody. This is Heidi St. John. Thanks for tuning in today. I'm so glad you guys have |
| 0:04.4 | joined me at my little corner of the internet. If you are feeling overwhelmed in your role as a |
| 0:10.4 | homeschool mom or dad right now and you're wondering how in the world you're going to manage |
| 0:15.0 | all the things that God's asked you to do in the midst of a crazy schedule. Today's guest is |
| 0:19.6 | going to encourage you. My friend, author and speaker Terry McKee is here. We're going to have |
| 0:23.8 | an awesome conversation. Stick around. I think you're going to be encouraged. |
| 0:35.2 | All right. So glad you guys have joined me. There's so many things going on in the world right now. |

| 1:27.9 | encourageer at heart. And I'm so glad she's here. Terry McKee, welcome to the show. |
| 1:31.3 | Hi, Heidi. It's so great to be on here. |
| 1:34.1 | Well, I'm glad that you're here. So we all know that art imitates life. So it doesn't matter if |
| 1:39.1 | you're talking about homeschooling or you're talking about. If you want to write about marriage, |
| 1:44.0 | you guarantee your marriage is going to be attacked. If you want to write about being overwhelmed, |
