Before I Go, I Need You To Know: Ask More Questions
I had the pleasure of being interviewed for a podcast this week by the next generation of media stars. They finished the interview by asking me what question I wish young people would ask me more.
My answer was simple: I wish they would ask more questions!
There seems to be a misnomer that we all need to have everything figured out by a young age and if we ask questions, that somehow communicates that we don’t know what we’re doing.
The truth is, we only learn when we ask questions, especially of each other. Understanding, compassion, and yes, even competency come when we can humble ourselves to ask more questions.
The Bible echoes this in Matthew 7, when Jesus says, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.”
So let’s continue to ask and seek. When we begin to prioritize our conversations around the concept of understanding who we are talking to rather than being understood ourselves, true connection will follow.

Wardrobe Sponsor: Lilly Pulitzer
I cannot say enough good things about Lilly Pulitzer’s newest custom color, Cherry Ganache. Even though it’s called cherry, it’s a beautiful wine color. Think of the deepest purple eggplant you can imagine.
I received so many compliments on the color of this dress that I want every item Lilly made in this line (especially the Elsa shirt!).
And if you know anything about me, you know I LOVE the Winona dress. It is SO easy to wear. Plus it can easily be dressed up or down. The stylists at Lilly Pulitzer Green Hills said they each bought it as soon as it came in.
Jewelry Sponsor: Kendra Scott
And those were easy to find at Kendra Scott in Green Hills.
Here are the direct links to every piece of Kendra Scott jewelry I wore on my October show:
- Arden Ring Set in Gold (I wore them on separate fingers, but could be stacked as well)
- Colette Hoop Earrings in Gold
- Rebecca Gold Multi Strand Necklace in Bronze Veined Purple Turquoise
- Payton Long Pendant Necklace
