34 - My Main Takeaway From The National Eucharistic Congress

The National Eucharistic Congress taught me one major thing: why so many Catholics leave the faith. In today’s episode, I discuss what I’ve learned on this topic and how we can prevent this from happening in the future.

33 - From Planned Parenthood Director To Pro-Life Advocate with Mayra Rodriguez

❗️ **NOTE: Some of the content discussed in this episode is quite graphic and may be triggering to sensitive or young listeners. Listener discretion is advised. Today I bring on Mayra Rodriguez to discuss her story as a former director of Planned Parenthood, and her conversion to becoming pro-life. We discuss: * Her story and what she experienced while working for planned parenthood * Being a Catholic working for planned parenthood * Exposing the corruption of the abortion industry * Terminated pregnancies vs. abortions * The Abortion Access Amendments Act * Being a “Baby Rights Activist” * Giving advice and wisdom to someone who’s had an abortion before * Giving advice to any pro-choice listeners * Why abortions are never necessary * Dealing with someone who is pro-choice/pro-abortion I am also happy to say that the same day this episode was recorded, the Abortion Amendments Act did not go through in the state of Arkansas. It will not be on any Arkansas ballots this year. 📲 CONNECT WITH MAYRA: https://mayrarodriguez.org [https://mayrarodriguez.org/en_us/] https://catholicspeakers.com/profiles/mayra-rodriguez [https://catholicspeakers.com/profiles/mayra-rodriguez] Instagram: @therealmayra.rodriguez [https://www.instagram.com/therealmayra.rodriguez/] Facebook: TheRealMayraRodriguez [https://www.facebook.com/TheRealMayraRodriguez] 📣 RESOURCES: Live Action: https://www.liveaction.org [https://www.liveaction.org/] Let Them Live: https://letthemlive.org [https://letthemlive.org/] Students For Life: https://studentsforlife.org [https://studentsforlife.org/] Abortion Worker: https://abortionworker.com/ [https://abortionworker.com/] 🎙️ Submit episode ideas/feedback here: ⁠https://forms.gle/SkVwBpiUv8EvD2P39⁠ [https://forms.gle/SkVwBpiUv8EvD2P39] SOCIALS: 📲 ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ [https://instagram.com/rise.above.the.waves] @rise.above.the.waves 🌺 ⁠⁠Small Biz⁠⁠ [https://mainoakailana.etsy.com/] Etsy Shop: Mainoakailana  (Use code RISEPOD24 for 30% off!

32 - Becoming An Ephesians 5 Man with Parker Vail

Today I bring on another special guest: Parker Vail. Parker is a young seminarian at the Catholic Diocese of Little Rock, and he brings his wisdom from his experiences so far onto the podcast. We discuss what it means to be an Ephesians 5 man, and how men today can regain their masculinity in a world of emasculation and toxic feminism. We also talk about discerning your vocation, whether that's to the priesthood, the married life, or a life of celibacy. 🎙️ Submit episode ideas/feedback here: ⁠https://forms.gle/SkVwBpiUv8EvD2P39⁠ [https://forms.gle/SkVwBpiUv8EvD2P39] SOCIALS: 📲 ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ [https://instagram.com/rise.above.the.waves] @rise.above.the.waves 🌺 ⁠⁠Small Biz⁠⁠ [https://mainoakailana.etsy.com/] Etsy Shop: Mainoakailana  (Use code RISEPOD24 for 30% off!
