You'll hear what Olivia and Sarah wished people knew about being activists and public figures so early in their lives––what they learned, what they're grateful for, what went wrong, what they got fired up about, and what they wish others would know.

Welcome to Season 3, Hope in Humanity! I am overjoyed to be taking a much-needed look at social justice, Catholic Social Teaching, and activism this season. First up, we have Carly Anderson–– Boston College Campus Minister in charge of 4Boston, a 700-student volunteer organization.

We get to hear from beautiful Carly all about her journey, the story of 4Boston, and so much more–– what good volunteering looks like, humility in how we serve, and how our hearts are uniquely called to service. It was such a wholesome and lovely conversation, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

This is the podcast that I wish I had when I wanted to start a praise & worship Holy Hour of Adoration at BC.

Faith Payson, Lizzy Roehm, Delia Delorie, Mickayla Hagar, and yours truly share our tips on organizing a holy hour, spreading the word, hosting with/without a priest, creating a set list, working sound systems, and more. This is a nuts & bolts discussion of what we learned through trial and error starting adoration at both a parish and a college.

It's a longer episode, but it's got all the information we can give–– and if you have questions let us know because we're all in this together!

Your favorite dynamic #VanLife #goats duo is back, this time through Zoom.

Olivia and Fr. Cassidy catch up on what they've been up to since SLS, how quarantine is treating them, and the real struggles and joys of the Church right now. We talk over-saturation of Catholic media, goats, a priest missing his parishioners, creative ways to survive right now, and how 99% of us are just not built to be hermits. I don't wanna be a hermit, and you shouldn't feel bad that you don't wanna be one either. We'll explain.
