NOTE: We lost audio this week and had to use a work around, so there’s an echo and the overall sound quality is diminished, but the content was too good not to share. We appreciate the grace, and hope that the episode still encourages and entertains you!

Hey Yall Hey!

We’re back for another heart-to-heart as we wrap up Season 7. And we’re dedicating our season finale episode to joy, laughter, and merriment.

We opened our talk by shouting out one of our faves and her mobile massage business. Check her out at Wellness With Char. We both had holiday-themed “leave its” this week. Tennille’s had to do with e-commerce, and mine was food-related.

Now, let's set the stage for this season finale. We wanted to focus on the joy of the season and focus on laughter and merriment this episode. Psalm 126:2 sets the tone: "Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy..." Get into for Season 7: Episode 10: Love, Laugh & Be Merry.

In our deep-dive segment, "Digging In," we reflect on the journey of the past seven seasons – and how this show has been a source of joy in our lives, “winter break” plans and how we'll infuse merriment into this special time. From belly laughs to navigating mid-life with a sprinkle of merriment, we're leaning into more happiness.

As always we wrap you in a comforting prayer to close out not just the episode but the season, seeking God’s guidance for embracing merriment and tapping into genuine joy. And because we always have your back, our weekly practice is all about healing through laughter. This week, dedicate a few minutes each day to a mindful laughter exercise. Start with a genuine laugh, and let it resonate. Even if it feels forced initially, it often turns into genuine laughter, boosting your mood. After all, laughter is the best medicine, right?

Ya’ll, we’re so grateful for you and we're sending you all the love and gratitude. Until the next season, let's laugh, be merry, and soak in the joy of the season.

Love, Maaden
