My guest this week is Amy Dickinson, perhaps best known as the writer
of the popular advice column “Ask Amy,” which is carried in over 150
newspapers and read by an estimated 22 million readers daily.

In addition to her work as a writer, you may have also heard Amy on
the NPR Quiz Show “Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me.” All of these experiences
made for a fascinating conversation as Amy talks about juggling life as
an advice columnist and her own experiences with parenthood and
marriage. We also talk about her life of faith as Amy is a member of a
United Methodist Church in her hometown in Freeville, New York. I’ve
enjoyed all my Failing Boldly conversations but this was certainly one
of my favorites.

To learn more about her books or read her columns, you can go to her
web site, amydickinson.com and also follow her on twitter, @askingamy.
