Latte and Laundry: A home for Catholic women, moms, and hearts

Catholic mom, Catholic women, and ALL friends seeking God- WELCOME!  This is a podcast designed to provide my fellow sisters in Christ with encouragement and support for the beautiful and difficult journey of living out our vocations. Truth is that motherhood, marriage, and living out our feminine genius are incredibly hard endeavors. Yet, through the perseverance of pursuing all that is good, true, and beautiful we are tenderly being transformed into vessels of God's love, one tiny dish, meeting, or dirty diaper at a time.  So, join me, Suzanne - homeschooling momma of 6, every week as we journey together with a Mary & Martha mission towards "stilling our souls WHILE moving our world."  Together, let's sit at the feet of Christ like Mary, while moving with the gusto and strength of Martha! Join me and my friends as we laugh, cry, dive deep, and explore with one another as navigate wifehood, motherhood, and sisterhood with our eyes on Christ.

    197. Living with a Lense of Love

    Want to connect? Send me a quick message here!"Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins". 1 Peter 4:8. How often our world sneakily distorts our vision. What we see when we look out at our lives, spouses, children, and vocations becomes blurred with fear, anxiety, judgment, pride, and worry. But what if we were never meant to live perfectly, but rather love abundantly? What if shifting our vision to one clarified by the lense of love is the key to glorif...

    194. Your Motherhood Matters to ME

    Want to connect? Send me a quick message here!"Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by[a] one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many." 1 Corinthians 12:12-14.I suspect that if you are a momma, your motherhood matters to you. But have you ever considered that yo...
