S2 E17 Rose Osada

Rose Osada is a wife, mother of five, and owner/operator of Relics by Rose, which creates beautiful Catholic jewelry with vintage and modern style. As working lives have changed for most of us in recent weeks, Rose’s quote is a beautiful and helpful reminder that there is virtue in doing whatever work we’re called to well. From Theodore Roosevelt, we hear, “Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.” How has your understanding of “work” changed over the last six weeks? How is God continuing to call out to you in the vocation you find yourself in? We’d love to know, so leave us a comment on Instagram!

S2 E16 Heidi Indahl

Author and speaker Heidi Indahl shares wise words about slowing down—which many of us have been called to do lately—and letting God take the lead in our lives. Her quote comes from The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence: “She seems so full of good will, but she wants to go faster than grace allows. It is not possible to become spiritually mature all at once.” We discuss some of Heidi’s books, and we’re happy to link to them here: Blessed Is the Fruit of Thy Womb: Rosary Reflections on Miscarriage, Stillbirth, and Infant Death 67 Ways to Do the Works of Mercy with Your Kids MISSION: FAMILY: A Journal to Help Catholic Families Discover Their Unique Vision, Mission, and Rule of Life Connect with Heidi at her website , on Instagram , and on Facebook .

S2 E15 Chloe Langer

Chloe Langr is a writer, podcaster, and the author of Created for Love: Reflections for the Catholic Bride-to-Be and the forthcoming Letters to Women: Embracing the Feminine Genius in Everyday Life . She is passionate about the feminine genius, which she explores on her podcast, Letters to Women . When she isn't buried under a growing stack of books, you can find her in a local coffee shop, spending time with her husband, Joseph, and their daughter, Maeve. Though again this episode was recorded before we knew what COVID-19 was, it’s relevant and powerful in this time. Chloe invites us to reflect on Pope Saint John Paul II’s trademark phrase, "Be not afraid." We hope you’ll be encouraged by the realization that God knows we’re going to face fear. He knows we want to be in control. He also wants us to trust Him, and these words can help us do just that. Remember: He’s with us at every moment. May you be drawn further in to the joy and peace of the Easter season wi

S2 E14 Allison Gingras

Allison Gingras is pure joy, and it was a gift to have her on the show. Allison is the founder of Reconciled to You , host of A Seeking Heart on Breadbox Media, WINE Steward for WINE: Women In the New Evangelization , and creator of the Stay Connected Journals for Catholic Women . The most recent of these— Seeking Peace: A Spiritual Journey from Worry to Trust (super relevant, right?!)—is available now. She brings us words from Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis that are fit for any time of year, but have particular poignancy during Holy Week: “Try to bear patiently with the defects and infirmities of others, whatever they may be, because you also have many a fault which others must endure.” If you’re looking for good spiritual reading, this book is a great place to start!
