What's up? Well, that's good fan. Y'all, I am so excited for this Wednesday because I have one of my good friends on the show today.

It is Alexa, Pinna Vega, and y'all, y'all, y'all might know who she is, but y'all about to love her even more because she's so much more than what she's known for.

She is filled with so much joy, so much love, and more than that, just a fruit of who God is. And I'm grateful to have a conversation with her.

Her and Carlos actually have a new book coming out called What If Love Is The Point Living for Jesus in a self-consumed world.

Don't we need it? Bring it on. Alexa, I'm so excited to have you on the pie guest.

Baby, thank you for having one half of the book here. Yes, thank you. That's great. That's great. I'm sure you'll cover all the grounds.

I'm going to do my best. I will try to answer some Carlos questions too, if possible.

That's awesome. Hey, we'll just have a conversation and look, if people want to hear Carlos's side, they can read the book, right?

That's right. The book is amazing. Like I was telling you before we popped on, one of my friends just got finished reading it, and she had notes and notes, and just was so encouraged and inspired and was like, say this conversation.

I'm so excited about which was just cool. So look, I heard before we started this that you haven't been prepped at all for the WoW That's Good Pie Test question.

So for all the listeners who know what's coming, I'm putting you in the hot seat to ask you the first question I ask everyone.

What is the best piece of advice you've ever been given? Boom.

Oh, the best piece of advice I've ever been given. It's actually funny. I've been hearing it more so now than before, but somebody told me to not be afraid to slow down.

This was years ago, years and years ago. I think earlier on in my career, I must have been like 12 or 13 during like spy kids and it was crazy.

And they actually gave the advice to my mom, not to me, but obviously I took that for me to not be afraid to slow down.

And that's actually stuck with me, especially in a time where everything is like hustle, hustle, hustle, hurry, hurry, hurry.

The culture that we live in really caters towards like give up your life and work hard every day because that's what it's about when really I feel like,

you know, the miracles of Jesus happened in the time when he was interrupted and when he was like slowing down.

He wasn't like, hey, I have to hurry up and get to this next play. So everybody leave me a follow up.

Like, it was in the interruption where so many beautiful miracles happen for him.

So for me, that like not being afraid to slow down, even in our busy, busy season, sometimes it's literally just taking like five minutes before a podcast,

just going like, all right, God, reset me. I know it's a busy, busy time. I want to slow down and just sit with you, even if it's only the two minutes that I have for today.
