parenting podcast summer series Jun 12, 2023

Has this year flown by as quickly for you as it has for me? Yep. Ready or not? Summer is here and I am embracing the unique rhythm and inviting you to join me and do the same. If you've been listening to this podcast for a bit, you likely know by now, I love changing things up here while also sticking to the things that you love, stories to encourage your freedom in Christ Enneagram insights and practical tips to help you thrive.

I have Wholehearted Collective Coaches, Janay Lanier and Sarah Cronin, here to start off our summer series in the absolute best way! You can listen to Sarah’s Spring Series: Enneagram 2 episode and Janay’s Spring Series: Enneagram 7 episode to get to know them a little better.

[2:45] Sarah and Janay introduce themselves and tell the story about how they met through Voxer! They met in person at a Wholehearted Retreat for the first time. They instantly bonded and actually shed some tears when they had to say goodbye.
