Summary

Today on the show, we’re answering the question, “Why does the winter feel so long?” You may know Cubbie Fink as one of the founding members of Foster the People, but he’s also an incredible producer and creative force. And joining him is his wife Rebecca St. James—Grammy and Dove Award-winning Christian artist, worship leader, author, and just all-around wonderful human. I think we’re all feeling OVER THE WINTER at this point, so we’re going to talk about why it feels so long and how we handle it, AND we get to talk about Cubbie and Rebecca’s book about their life and marriage, called Lasting Ever. If you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 25. And as always, if you still want to get a Guidebook (especially because spring pages are coming soon, we’re emailing them out on March 17th!), you can find it at anniefdowns.com/seasons . . . . .
