Welcome to The Endow Podcast! This podcast is a forum for women to foster conversations about the intellectual life and intentional community for the cultivation of the feminine genius.

On this episode, Simone Rizkallah, Director of Program Growth, interviews Claire Dwyer on how to live with a "cloistered heart" in the midst of the world and how to grow in spiritual maturity through the gifts and limitations of your personality by examining the four temperaments.

Claire Dwyer lives in Arizona with her husband and six children who range in age from 23 to 9. She works for the Avila Foundation and writes and speaks on topics such as authentic femininity, discernment of one’s personal vocation, living fully the present moment.

Her passion is to help fellow followers of Christ see the beauty and possibility of their interior lives and own their unrepeatable place in the Church.
