A short talk with my daughter - Episode 0

As I was preparing to launch Chasing Grace I had a couple sessions that were meant to be practice to ensure the equipment was working and set up properly. In the course of the preparation I used one of my daughters as a test subject. Although it wasn't a full episode I still feel like she had some important and relevant things to say in our conversation. This podcast episode is a glimpse into the types of conversations that I hope to engage in. So, I will call this episode 0. Enjoy!
