This week we have Allie Beth Stucky who discusses her busy schedule and how she balances her professional and personal life. She shares that working with her husband, who serves as her business manager, has been a game-changer, allowing them to travel together as a family while managing their responsibilities. Ali explains that she records multiple podcast episodes per week and relies on a large team to handle behind-the-scenes tasks.
She also reflects on how her career has shifted over time, particularly after having children, leading her to make adjustments in speaking engagements and interviews. Additionally, she discusses her faith journey, how she and her husband chose a church based on strong biblical teaching and community involvement, and the importance of being actively engaged in their local church.

| 0:00.0 | How did you learn what a healthy church is? |
| 0:04.0 | Talk me, walk me through that. |
| 0:06.0 | Yes, well, I was raised Christian, and I'm very grateful for that. |
| 0:12.0 | I was raised also going to a Christian school, and I credit, first of all, my parents for just how they disciples me. |
| 0:19.0 | And yes, my mom and my dad, but primarily my mom. And I think a lot of |
| 0:23.3 | people would say that just because you spend the most time with your mom growing up and seeing her |
| 0:29.4 | example of every single morning having her journal and her coffee and her Bible out, how she |
| 0:35.5 | diligently prayed with me, how she sang hymns with me every |
| 0:41.8 | night. And we were just very close and had that connection. And I just followed her example |

| 1:29.3 | So anyway, I was just the beneficiary of a lot of good teaching, but it wasn't really until high school that I started taking my faith seriously and personally digging into apologetics and theology. |
| 1:41.6 | That's when I started considering if I was what is typically referred to as reformed, |
| 1:46.8 | although I wouldn't have necessarily called myself that, reading C.S. Lewis and Tim Keller |
| 1:51.4 | and John Piper, Matt Chandler at the time. This was all probably junior in high school. |
| 1:58.5 | And I actually started going to another church independent of my parents. |
