    RLR Interview with Ann Burns: “Propriety: A Skill to Help Avoid Near Occasions of Sin and Scandal — and to Grow in a Happy Life”

    Today on Respect Life Radio, Deacon Geoff Bennett is joined by Ann Burns — wife, mother, and founder of The Feminine Project (https://feminineproject.com/), a community dedicated to helping Catholic women cultivate their minds, build authentic sisterhood, and restore the beauty of true femininity at the heart of the home and society. Ann discusses her recent Crisis Magazine article, “Propriety: A Skill to Help Avoid Near Occasions of Sin and Scandal — and to Grow in a Happy Life”. She explores the virtue of propriety, a habit rooted in charity and humility, and how today’s “you do you” culture often excuses treating others poorly or justifying sinful tendencies. The loss of propriety, she notes, leads many to speak without reflection, neglecting the pauses that allow charity to guide our words and help us see each person as a beloved son or daughter of God. Deacon Geoff and Ann also reflect on how discernment and reverence can shape the ordinary decisions of daily life. They emphasize the call to witness Christ in all we do and to place Him — rather than personal preference — at the center. Reclaiming the virtue of propriety brings true freedom and teaches us to live well.
