Summary

Snippet From the Show “St. Elizabeth Seton is a really faithful friend. If you're praying to her, things will happen and she will show up. She's a really powerful intercessor.” – Becca Corbell Our special guest this week is Becca Corbell. Becca has worked at the Seton Shrine in Emmitsburg Maryland for the last 10 years where she is Associate Director of Programs. Becca has worked in many aspects of the Shrine’s programming, most notably in the Basilica and Liturgical life at the Shrine for seven years, directed the Shrine’s popular faith-drama “Back from the Dead” for six years, and helped to found the Shrine’s Prayer Line Ministry. Some links from today’s conversation: National Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton (https://setonshrine.org/) Seton Shrine Book Clubs (https://setonshrine.org/bookclub/) Seton Shrine museum (https://setonshrine.org/museum/) At the end of today’s show, Danielle answers an email from a listener Emily who struggles with how to talk with her husband about his physical health.

0:00.0	Girlfriends, episode number 390, your friends in heaven with Becca Corbell.
0:05.6	Hello and welcome to Girlfriends.
0:07.6	I'm Danielle Bean.
0:08.6	I'm a wife and a mom, and I'm on a mission to help you know your worth as a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy and family living.
0:15.8	This week, we are talking with a special guest, Becca Corbell, about our friends, the Saints in Heaven.
0:21.4	Can't wait to get started. Let's go.
0:30.0	Hello, girlfriend. So glad you are joining me here today. Today's topic is one that's very Catholic,
0:36.8	right, because we're talking about the saints. And yet even I,
0:40.7	as a cradle Catholic, find that I need to remind myself again and again of the gift that we have
0:47.1	in the communion of saints. Like, this is something that I need to be reminded of. And I'm continually

1:18.5	saints. We've had her here on the podcast before to share about it. And I just always find
1:23.1	myself inspired and encouraged that, you know what? probably, probably you and I can be saints too,
1:29.5	right? Because we sometimes think like, that's another kind of person, right? A saint is a different
1:34.7	kind of person. That's not me. That doesn't really have real life application for me in the way
1:39.1	that I'm living my life, right? But we're all called to be saints. And when we look at the variety of the ways that saints
1:45.7	lived out their lives, we can really be encouraged and inspired along those lines. Have you ever
1:51.5	had the experience of a saint like just kind of showing up for you, kind of following you or
