In this episode, I'm joined by Carrie Gress—philosopher, scholar, editor of Theology of Home, and mother of five—for a deeply thoughtful conversation on what it truly means to reclaim womanhood in today's world. Together, we explore why so many women find themselves feeling unfulfilled despite promises of empowerment through modern feminism—and how restoring the true essence of femininity might be the key to deeper peace, purpose, and connection.

Carrie shares her unique journey from a liberal upbringing to becoming a strong advocate for faith, tradition, and intentional living. We’ll walk you through:

✅ Why balancing personal aspirations with family bonds creates true empowerment—not division

✅ How the home can be reimagined as a sanctuary of peace and justice rather than a battleground for societal expectations

✅ The surprising ways historical movements have manipulated women’s emotions—and how awareness brings freedom

✅ Why practices like honoring a Sabbath rest are more essential today than ever for mental clarity and family restoration

✅ How to navigate marriage with mutual support, open communication, and a new understanding of healthy roles within relationships

Whether you're feeling caught between career ambitions and family life, questioning what feminine strength really looks like, or simply yearning for more harmony amidst the chaos, this conversation offers a refreshing, compassionate lens through which to view modern womanhood.

🔔 Remember: True strength lies not in conforming to outside pressures—but in living with intentionality, gratitude, and grace. Your gifts are needed, both in your work and your relationships.

🔔 Carrie’s insights offer a call to return to what matters most—and to redefine success on your own terms. Don’t miss this enriching dialogue that invites you to live from a place of true empowerment and purpose.
