Hi guys and welcome back to the podcast. I hope you guys are doing well when you're listening

like always. Today's episode is a very fun one because it's actually with one of my friends

Melissa Melissa is a photographer here in Dallas. I actually met her. She reached out and asked

if I wanted to get some couple photos taken. I was like oh yeah I love that. And then we just

realized that we really clicked and then our husbands met each other and now I would say they're

kind of our main couple friends here in Dallas and she's just such a great friend. She's one of

those people that I haven't known for very long but we just clicked with immediately. I feel like

I've known her for a while and I especially like that we're in very similar life stages so she got

married. I think she was 21 when she got married. She's 22 now. She's married, lives in Dallas and she

also does a freelance style job as a photographer full-time so I just think we can relate on a lot

of things in our life which means I really wanted to have her on for a podcast because I love doing

episodes with people that are close to me and that you can kind of get the vibe of what it's like to

be in the same room which is a couple of friends chatting. This is my episode where I answer your

guys' life advice question so I ask on my Instagram which is just at Michelle Reed if you guys have

anything that you need advice on could be about relationships, family and this one we talked about

getting married, splitting holidays you know drama with in-laws that kind of stuff and I just thought

it was a really fun episode. I was having a really good time so you can hear us laughing a lot and

I also recorded this at her apartment so the quality is a little bit different. I do really want to

get updated mics. My past couple of guest episodes I've done have been in a studio so the quality

has just been really good and I need to upgrade my quality. I will admit I will say this quality is

not superb but I still think it's a good episode if you guys want to give it a listen. For my life

update this week if you guys are interested in Christmas content I know it's not Thanksgiving yet.
