He did not give me a singing voice, and He did not give me a heart for long division, but He did give me this ability to see humor in probably things that I shouldn't see humor in, but I do.

Welcome to The Lisa Show, where we take a good look at life.

Hey, it's Lisa.

If you're a regular listener to this show, you'll know there are a few constants in my life.

My kids, my Netflix subscription, my devotion to nachos, and my love of all things 80s.

Thank you.

Very funny, funny lady.

You have entertained us here at The Lisa Show.

Giving each other the benefit of the doubt and keeping the conversation open is how we keep that knowledge and our hope alive.

The Lisa Show is a production of BYU Radio, hosted by Lisa Valentine Clark.

This episode was produced by Becca Hurley-Lung, with help from Erica Price, Blake Morris, Abby Coleman, and Ariel Atkinson, with post-production by Livvy Arbuckle.

A special thanks to today's guest, Marianne Viray.

We're already having a good time, so welcome to the party.

I'm your host, Lisa Valentine Clark.

I am the mother of five.

My kids are almost 28, 26, 23, almost 21, like next week, and... 18 wow good job that makes me tired thinking of those ages and what that means thank

If you can't make them or help them feel good and great, it's probably not going to be a great relationship.

Welcome to The Lisa Show, where we take a good look at life.

Hey, it's Lisa.

My brother Chris influenced my behavior growing up more than anyone.

He set the tone for how you do things.

But if we're looking for kindness, humility, faith, courage, goodness, if we're looking for the qualities of Christ, then suddenly greatness is everywhere.

And maybe that's the real challenge, to be intentional about the influence we allow into our lives, to recognize the greatness in the people around us, and then to become a little bit more of it ourselves.

[upbeat music] Hello, and welcome to The Council of Moms.

I'm your host, Lisa Valentine Clark, mom of five, friend to many.

Thank you for being here for The Council of Moms.

It's a place where we come together, and we talk about all things parenting, motherhood, friendship, collaboration, the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful, the wonderful, this thing we call motherhood and life.

Wow

... then was like, "No, I don't wanna spend my time doing that," and then changed to something else, and then changed to English.

And now- And then correct me if I'm wrong, Lisa, but didn't that same kid as a preteen wanna be a stand-up comic? Yes.

[laughs] That is true.

I am a mom.

My name is Lisa Valentine Clark, and I'm your host for today with this wonderful council.

The Council of Moms is a place where we come together and we answer questions that we all have, maybe internally, maybe externally, maybe repeatedly, maybe one time, but it's a concern nonetheless.

We come together, and we talk about it.

We give the good, the bad, the ugly, most of all, the authentic truth [laughs] of what this overwhelming job as a mother is, and how we can help support each other, because none of us are in this alone.

Uh, again, my name is Lisa Valentine Clark.

I'm the mom of five.

My kids are, uh, the ages of 18 to 28.

Yeah.
