Speaker 1 Welcome to a behind-the-scenes peek at our very first live show,

Speaker 1 in which several things will happen.

Speaker 1 You'll feel good, and you'll still fall asleep.

Speaker 1 I'm Catherine Nikolai.

Speaker 1 Friends, pardon me for bumping into your podcast feed.

Speaker 1 I'm going to use my sleepy voice, so it might still knock you out.

Speaker 1 On Wednesday, November 19th, at 6 p.m. Pacific, 9 p.m.
Eastern,

Speaker 1 We will take you into the village of Nothing Much for a special live event. I'll be be telling three stories that hold a special place in my heart

Speaker 1 and mark turning points in my own journey as a writer. One of them has never been heard on the podcast before.

Speaker 1 Aya Aiel, this lovely tender-hearted singer that I've been lucky enough to connect with, will serenade us with lullabies.

Speaker 1 Her voice is like a warm embrace. Bob will be there to supply a soundscape as we go and to make us laugh with a blooper-filled game.

Speaker 1 There will be lots of extras.

Speaker 1 You could win a beautiful package of bath products from Windsor Grace Apothecary. We have five to give away.
There's a new coloring page, there are journal prompts, and more.

Speaker 1 And if you're unable to attend it live, I'm looking at you, Europe and Australia.

Speaker 1 You'll get the video to enjoy soon after the show ends.

Speaker 1 And I want to share a little about what inspired me to put this together.

Speaker 1 About 10 years ago, I got a phone call that changed my life. It challenged me to think about the mark my life would make in the world.

Speaker 1 and the dreams that I was neglecting. Because of that moment and a promise I made, I am here talking to you now from the biggest sleep podcast in the world.

Speaker 1 Because of it, my book was published in over 30 countries.

Speaker 1 I run a whole creative team of really lovely people who genuinely care about making at least this corner of the world kinder.

Speaker 1 So many of my wildest dreams came true that I regularly have to dream wilder.

Speaker 1 So if you could use a little inspiration, a bit of support to getting your own dreams on track, if you feel kind of worn out by the world

Speaker 1 and need to be reminded of goodness and laughter and ordinary magic,

Speaker 1 I personally extend this invitation.

Speaker 1 Maybe this is the phone call you need to take take right now. The years will pass either way, right?

Speaker 1 Whether we use them or not.

Speaker 1 So put on your softest pajamas.

Speaker 1 Grab a blanket, a cup of tea, or a cat, and sit back. And let us tell you some stories.
Let us play you some songs.

Speaker 1 Let us make you laugh and smile and remember that there is still so much good in the world

Speaker 1 and so many friends yet to make.

Speaker 1 That's p-a-ve-e.l-i-ve-e.

Speaker 1 Won't you be my neighbor?
