Hello and welcome to girlfriends.

I'm Danielle Bean. I'm a wife and a mom, and I'm on a mission to help you know your

worth as a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy in family living.

I can't wait to share another show with you. Let's get going.

Hey, girlfriends, welcome to another show. I'm so happy you're here with me during this

Christmas season. Yes, it's not quite Christmas yet, but I am pre-recording this to run pretty

close to Christmas. And this is a little bit of a different episode. Schedules are crazy,

and I am not quite finding the time to put out a regular episode, but I did find the time

to record an interview with the awesome Sarah Reinhart and Lisa Hendy talking about

the book that they edited together, Catholic Mom's Prayer Companion, which is a great book.

I was honored to be a part of it. I was honored to watch the process, and I just love everything

that these ladies put out. But I thought this book is a great opportunity to have the two of them on to talk about prayer life, which is something I think is near and dear

to all of our hearts. I hear from you guys all the time. I hear from even among my friends and my

sisters that this is something every woman struggles with. Every woman whose faith life matters to her

struggles with finding the time for daily

prayer. And resources like the Catholic mom's prayer companion, other kinds of books and resources

are great for us to have and for us to share. But I think it's also important to just come together

and recognize that we value this, that it's important, that we need to make it a

priority, that if we're not making it a priority, nobody else is going to. And, you know, so this is

a topic that I'm going to want to revisit in the new year, I'm sure I'll dedicate an episode

just to that. So along those lines, as we're talking today and as you listen to today's interview,

if you have questions or if you have your own contributions on this topic, I would love to hear them.
