Amy has a goal of creating a home that is full of people & connection...where kids & friends always feel welcome. Her niece, Adelyn, joins her for this chat...sharing her experience growing up in a home that was the 'hangout house' and how her parents are very intentional about cultivating a home that is inviting...where people/teens/friends/family feel welcome even when things aren't perfect! Key Takeaways: - Listen to Crowded Table by The Highwomen. - Don't overthink it. - Relax about stuff that doesn't matter in the big picture. - Always have a few extra stools to add to the table. - Be involved, curious, ask questions. - Serving both sides of the counter! - Root For Each Other (shout out Root House!) - No matter what, be welcoming. - Offer rides. - Let them make the dang 'smash cake.' - Have food on hand and a place where people feel like they can hang out....and it doesn't have to be fancy...HELLO CHEESE TOAST! - Think: sausage on the grill, queso in a crock pot & pre-made cookie dough in the oven with a game of corn-hole and everyone around the fire pit. Keep it simple. - 4 Things Gratitude. Adelyn is staying with Amy over the summer to complete an internship for her business degree at CU Boulder, so she'll actually be doing 4 episodes with Amy over the month of June talking about various topics! This is episode 1 of 4. Hope you enjoy it!! Adelyn is trying to get Amy to talk about dating for next week's episode! TBD.
