Interviewing your best friend is an interesting and unique opportunity. I have had the chance to interview my friend Chelsie Hightower a couple of times. The first time, a couple of years ago, we sat in my living room, laughing and crying together as Chelsie shared her story with me and subsequently with thousands of readers of the Deseret News. Chelsie and I have conversations about life on a regular basis. She is one of those people that is really great at going deep with people fast, and from our first conversation, I’ve been impressed by her love for God and her desire to do God’s will in her life. Still, I recognize that there is an added element of vulnerability required to share deeply personal parts of our lives with complete strangers.
