a conversation about saints and stuff

I had the pleasure of chatting with Jared Dees from Ave Maria Press today. I got to share a little bit about myself and my family, and talk about some of my favorite Saints and courageous women featured in My Badass Book of Saints.

It was great fun — especially getting to talk with Jared face-to-face. I’m having so much fun with this project — I just wanted to tell some stories. I did, but more than that, I’m getting to meet some wonderful people. I’m blessed!

Hangout with Me!

I want to know about your favorite saints and women who inspire you!

I’ll tone down the exclamation points, too! Maybe.

Hi Everybody! Checking in to let you know I’ve been busy in some other places, and I’m having fun — whether it’s giving a talk about the rosary to the Marist Mothers Prayer Group…

or sharing my writing around the web. I’m featured this week at Women In the New Evangelization with a piece about gratitude, and last week I shared my story at CatholicMom.com about venerating St. Maria Goretti’s relics on the Pilgrimage of Mercy. I have two sets of holy cards to give to readers, so I’m happy to announce that Maria at CatholicMom and Karen T. on my blog will both be receiving those holy cards soon.

Finally, I’m interviewed in episode #197 of Among Women with Pat Gohn. It’s so much fun to join Pat on the other side of the microphone. Pat is a dear friend and a long time collaborator, and most recently she blessed me by writing the foreword to my book, My Badass Book of Saints. We have a lovely conversation that explains the book title, the structure of the book, some of my favorite saints…and Pat gushes over my selfie with the Pope. Give it a listen!

[update!] You’ll want to enter Pat’s contest, too, as she celebrates her 200th show with some giveaways! My book is included in a great group of women!
