    Why Dreaming Doesn't Work Until You Let Go of Last Year | Episode 94

    Dreaming can feel impossible when you’re still carrying the weight of what didn’t happen, what hurt, or what never got resolved. In this episode, Meghan and Maria explore why dreaming often feels blocked—not because you’re doing it wrong, but because your heart and body are still holding last year. They walk through why looking back with honesty and compassion is often the missing step before moving forward, how unforgiveness and disappointment live in the body, and why healing creates the space needed for hope, curiosity, and desire to return. This conversation gently invites you to release what’s been weighing you down, make room for God to meet you in the ache, and begin dreaming again—from a place of freedom rather than pressure. 💫 You’re invited: The Dreaming Workshop 💫 If this episode stirred something in you, we’d love to hold space for you to go deeper.

    Six Intimacy Skills Every Catholic Woman Needs Before Marriage with special guest Amy Davenport | Episode 91

In this conversation, Amy shares the six intimacy skills that helped restore her marriage and reconnect her to her feminine heart—skills she wishes every Catholic woman knew before she ever said yes to a man.  Whether you’re single, dating, or preparing for marriage someday, this episode will give you a hopeful, refreshing vision for love: one rooted in trust, emotional safety, and becoming the woman God created you to be.
