Season 10, Episode 11: Hi, I'm New Here with Lindsay Swoboda

Whether it's a different job, or another church, or yet another military move, we’ve all been the new girl at some point in our lives. Today, author Lindsay Swoboda—who’s moved seventeen times!—joins us to chat about how we can hold the unknowns of a Life Raft Season loosely, yet intentionally. Lindsay shares her best tips for creating a sense of home, encourages us to sit with our kids in their pain instead of trying to take it away, and challenges us to pursue new friendships, even if it feels awkward. We hope this conversation gives you the confidence to build a life of connection, no matter what city or life situation you land in.
