Hey Friend! 

Do you ever wish an older, wiser woman could speak into your life so you could live with more wisdom and less regret? If so, you’ll love my conversation with author, Danna Demetre.   

I talk with Danna on today's podcast as she reflects on her 70 years and shares 10 things she wished she’d known (or put into practice!) sooner. 

Her insights are simple yet profound, Biblical yet so “real life”. You’ll be encouraged and inspired by our conversation.

You are loved,
