In today’s episode of Conversations with Bizzy, I sit down with Mary D’Angelo, a cybersecurity expert with an incredible story. Mary opens up about growing up in a big Italian family and how her roots, life experiences, and faith journey all played a part in leading her to the world of cybersecurity.

We dive into everything from staying strong in your faith in today’s chaotic world, to how AI is influencing beliefs and mindsets without us even realizing it. Mary shares real-world advice on cybersecurity — including how social engineering attacks target human emotions, why VPNs are important (but not a cure-all), and how even the best parental controls can be outsmarted by tech-savvy kids.

She also shares her personal journey back to Catholicism after a difficult breakup, showing how life’s challenges can sometimes bring us back to our spiritual center. We talk about the complexities of Catholic teachings, the comfort spirituality can bring during tough times, and how relationships often shift as we deepen our faith.

Throughout the conversation, Mary reminds us that personal responsibility — whether in faith, relationships, or protecting ourselves online — is more important now than ever.
From understanding the risks of the dark web, to seeing how cultural identity shapes who we become, this episode is full of lessons for navigating today’s digital — and spiritual — landscape with strength and awareness.

🎧 Grab a coffee (or tea!) and join us for a real, inspiring conversation about faith, family, firewalls — and everything in between.
