In this special Christmas episode of The Catholic Woman Podcast, Marie shares the most beautiful Catholic Christmas traditions submitted by listeners; traditions that keep Christ at the center while still embracing joy, wonder, and family life.

From St. Nicholas Day shoes and shepherd’s dinners to birthday cakes for Jesus and meaningful Advent practices, this episode is full of simple, faith-filled ideas you can bring into your own home.

Marie also reflects on her own childhood Christmas memories as the oldest of twelve and how her family blended faith, tradition, and a little Christmas magic in a way that shaped her heart for life.

Whether you’re raising young children or simply longing for a more intentional Christmas season, this episode is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and celebrate the birth of Christ with deeper purpose.
