0:00.0	This is The Homemaking Foundation's podcast with Jamie Belmay, episode number 326.
0:06.5	Welcome to the Homemaking Foundation's podcast, where we give you the tools, inspiration, and
0:12.0	encouragement you need to craft a gospel-centered home. And now your host from youngwifesguide.com,
0:18.1	Jamie Belmay. Hey, ladies, welcome back to my podcast.

1:26.9	But we know that a lot of times what we think will make us happy doesn't actually

1:39.4	It's from Jen Oshman.
1:41.5	And it was decent.
1:42.8	I wouldn't say it was like the best book I've ever read.
1:45.0	But it really got me thinking about this topic of joy.
