Why I Wrote About Catholic Women (and Why It Still Matters)

Are you struggling to balance your modern, fast-paced life with your Catholic faith? You are not alone. In this video, I share the personal journey that led me to write Important Catholic Women of the 20th Century, a book born out of my own need to find relatable, modern role models. If you’ve ever felt like the stories of the saints belong to a different time, or if you’re navigating the "messy middle" of work, family life, and vocation, this is for you. I explore how 20th-century Catholic women faced modern complexities, cultural shifts, and their own personal struggles, all while remaining deeply faithful. In this video, I discuss: ⚖️ Finding balance when you’re drowning in family logistics and professional demands. 📖 The "hidden" stories of 20th-century women who faced real-world challenges like depression, single parenthood, and career hurdles. ✨ Why these women are the perfect mentors for our own 21st-century faith journeys. 📢 Exciting updates on the new second edition of the book, including a special foreword by my bishop!
