Letters to Women - Exploring the Feminine Genius

Summary: What comes to mind when you think of the daily life of a woman who’s living out the feminine genius? The feminine genius isn’t a box that you have to stuff yourself into. It’s not a cookie-cutter model for how to live authentically as a Catholic woman. In fact, the feminine genius will look different in the life of every woman since we all have our own story to live, our own journey back to the Father’s heart. Welcome to Letters to Women, a podcast that explores the feminine genius. Every other week, join host Chloe Langr as she dives in with other Catholic women about how they embrace their unique feminine genius in their ordinary, daily life as women.
