Summary

After 150 episodes, it is a true joy to sit + chat with you all 1-on-1 today. I would say “I can’t believe we’re here!” but to be honest…I knew how phenomenal Catholic women were when I started this. I’m not surprised that you’re on fire for the topics we discuss on this show. I’m not shocked that you love tuning into our guests, whether they’re well-known speakers or just everyday women. I’m not stunned that when it’s time to turn on a podcast, you’re the type of woman who wants to hear about immigration, body image, and the real complexities of motherhood.

In today’s episode, I’m answering YOUR questions. I gathered questions over email and Instagram and while I obviously couldn’t tackle all of them, I chose a few that seemed oft-repeated or that simply seemed intriguing to me. I’m talking about things like white privilege, raising my son as a feminist, and which elements of my own feminism have morphed and shifted over the past 3 and a half years.
