Hey Friend! 

Do you feel like this crazy, chaotic, loud world is trying to pull you in a thousand different directions? I get it, friend. I feel it too. Well, today we are talking to my friend and author Denise Hughes about her latest devotional book, Sanctuary: Cultivating a Quiet Heart in a Noisy and Demanding World. We talk about how we can make a few easy and practical shifts that can help settle our minds and give us the peace of our soul we all long for. 

As a special bonus, I’m giving away copies of Denise’s devotional. Mention the podcast and tag me on social media to win.

As we enter the holiday season, I can’t think of a better topic.

xo,

Donna

  4. Just because you are an extrovert doesn’t mean that YOU can’t lead a quiet life.
