Introduction to Red Tent Living Podcast

00:00:00
Speaker
I'm Tracy Johnson and this is the Red Tent Living Podcast, where brave women host honest conversations about our beautiful and hard ordinary. This season, we tackle the messy truths of friendship. I'm excited for you to join us. Welcome to our table.
00:00:18
Speaker
Sitting here at my desk, I'm looking out the windows at the clouds starting to gather and the rain that's just beginning to fall. The weather is cool for Austin and in the middle of the live oak trees outside my window, there is a single maple covered with yellow leaves. I'm feeling so grateful this morning, grateful for cooler weather for yellow leaves.

for changing seasons and for all of you.

Reflecting on Season One

00:00:45
Speaker
Thank you so much for being here, for saying yes to being a part of this newest offering for Red Tent Living and for sharing it with your friends. We are so excited about the growth of the podcast and the positive feedback that some of you have given us.
00:01:01
Speaker
As we're nearing the end of season one, I have loved getting to host the stories of our beautiful, brave, generous women, sharing their tales about friendship. And as we prepare for the next season, we would welcome your suggestions about what you would like to be hearing from us.
00:01:19
Speaker
Please email me, Tracy, at redtuntliving.com and share your thoughts and your ideas. As we head into Thanksgiving next week, we have a few special things we'd like to share. First, next week's episode will be the final episode of season one.
00:01:35
Speaker
Beth Bruno and I are going to be sharing our stories tied to the prompt friends around the table.

Holiday Season Updates and Intentions

00:01:41
Speaker
So make plans to join us as you enter into whatever the Thanksgiving holiday week holds for you. We have a couple of other things that we're excited to share with you for the holiday season.
00:01:53
Speaker
First, we will be releasing our newly updated red tent dinners. We've made it simpler to say yes to hosting a dinner by providing recipes, dinner prompts, and decor ideas that'll come each month for you. And that way you and a few of your friends can gather around the table and share your own stories, much in the way that we share stories here on the podcast. Secondly, Advent is just around the corner and we have an Advent Guide designed just for you.
00:02:23
Speaker
Intentionally engaging my own heart and my own story each week has come to be an important part of how I welcome Christmas. It's part of how I stay present to myself and my family in the midst of the busyness and the distractions that December brings. This year I'm sharing some of my thoughts and ideas for how you can engage each week during the holiday season with a bit more intentionality and a bit more tending to your heart and soul.
00:02:51
Speaker
So, be watching our socials on Instagram and Facebook and on the Red Tent Living website for how you can sign up to get my guided reflections for admin and the beautifully curated Red Tent dinners each month.

Closing Blessings and Credits

00:03:05
Speaker
All you'll have to do is give us your email and we'll do the rest.
00:03:09
Speaker
Finally, I just have a blessing for you as you anticipate all that the coming weeks will hold as we enter the holidays. May you notice the moments in the day when you are meant to offer encouragement, welcome, grace, or kindness. And may you find them returning to you when you are the one in need. May the places inside you that ache with longing know the tender presence of comfort. And may you know that you belong here with us in the red tent always.
