Renay sits down with Leonard E. Robinson — over forty-five years in environmental management, appointee under four California governors, former Acting Director and Chief Deputy Director of California's Department of Toxic Substances Control, Partner and Chief Sustainability Strategist at SEMCO, Sustainability Coordinator for the Catholic Archdiocese of Atlanta, and host of the Faith and Sustainability podcast — for a conversation about what it takes to lead from faith inside institutions that were not built to hear it. This is the second conversation Renay and Leonard recorded for the show. The first was, in Renay's  own words, the conversation any host could have had. So she asked him for another one. What you hear in this episode is a man who stopped trying to fit in a long time ago, walking us through the inner architecture that let him do that — and what it cost, and what it gave him.  This episode is not a sermon. It is not a debate about whether faith belongs in business. It is a working leader — an engineer by training — describing the discipline of following something he cannot prove. And the difference, as he draws it, between faith and resilience: "Resilience is how we react to things. Faith is how we respond to things." Leonard and Renay cover: why language like climate change and faith triggers the same defensive posture, and what to do with that noise instead of around it; the silos we build between profession and belief, and what happens when we stop maintaining them; the difference between confidence and faith for leaders who don't subscribe to a higher authority; Laudato Si' and what it has unlocked inside the Archdiocese of Atlanta; and the leaders Leonard watched cut through — from Greta Thunberg to Charles Lee, the EPA veteran who helped launch the environmental justice movement alongside Dr. Ben Chavis Jr. and whose name most people in this work still don't know. This episode is also a tribute. Leonard passed away after recording. He gave us this conversation. We are honored to share it.

Shane Waters and Gemma Hoskins continue their first sit-down in over a year, working through the second half of the questions listeners submitted through the show's Facebook community. This is the follow-up to "The Mary Statue and Unanswered Questions, " a wide-ranging conversation about the unsolved 1969 murder of Sister Catherine Ann Cesnik in Baltimore, Maryland. Known to millions through the Netflix documentary The Keepers, Gemma has spent more than a decade investigating what happened to Sister Cathy, the young School Sister of Notre Dame who taught English and drama at Archbishop Keough High School.The Persons of InterestListeners asked about the figures who have circled this case for years. Gemma explains why "Brother Bob" has never been publicly identified, how the nickname came to stand for more than one man, and why she has stepped back from the theory she put forward in her own 2019 book. She and Shane talk through how a single murder sits at the center of a web of other abuse and other suspected crimes, and why that makes Sister Cathy's case so difficult to untangle.New Questions Around Father KoobGemma describes the women who have come forward in recent years with accusations against Father Gerard Koob, and walks through why, in her understanding, charges have been so hard to bring, including questions of jurisdiction and corroboration, since only some of the accusers were abused in Maryland. She recounts asking Detective Josh Battaglia to put her questions to Koob directly. Koob, who was the subject of a 2023 Baltimore Banner investigation by reporter Justin Fenton, continues to deny wrongdoing and says listeners are thinking of a different man. He has not been charged.Who Knew, and the Attorney General's ReportShane and Gemma discuss how much the staff at Archbishop Keough may have known, and why so many people went quiet after Sister Cathy was killed. They place it in the context of the Maryland Attorney General's 2023 report on clergy abuse in the Archdiocese of Baltimore, a 456-page document detailing the abuse of more than 600 children across decades and the conclusion that "no parish went untouched. " That history is part of what is driving the Archdiocese's current bankruptcy.Joyce Malecki and the Sealed FilesThe conversation turns to Joyce Malecki, the 20-year-old whose 1969 murder near Fort Meade has long been discussed alongside Sister Cathy's. Gemma updates listeners on the 2023 exhumation of Joyce's body, the family's still-unanswered request for thousands of pages of FBI files first sought in 2014, and the letter Senator Chris Van Hollen carried to the White House on their behalf. Shane makes the case for why physical evidence in an unsolved murder should never be destroyed.Cathy's FamilyGemma reflects on why Sister Cathy's family chose to step out of the spotlight after The Keepers, the heartbreak of learning their loved one's death may not have been random, and the dignity of their decision to protect their own peace.Content WarningThis episode discusses clergy abuse and violence.Frequently Asked QuestionsWho is Gemma Hoskins?Gemma Hoskins is a retired Baltimore teacher and former student at Archbishop Keough High School. She has spent more than a decade investigating the murder of her former teacher, Sister Cathy Cesnik, and was one of the central figures in the Netflix documentary The Keepers. She was named Maryland Teacher of the Year in 1992.Has anyone been charged in Sister Cathy's murder?No. The 1969 murder of Sister Catherine Cesnik remains unsolved, and no one has ever been charged.What is the Maryland Attorney General's report?Released in 2023, the report documented decades of child sexual abuse within the Archdiocese of Baltimore, naming Father Joseph Maskell among its most prolific abusers and identifying more than 600 victims across the Archdiocese.Who is investigating Sister Cathy's case today?Detective Josh Battaglia of the Baltimore County Police Department currently handles the investigation. He took overfrom Corporal Robin Teal after her retirement.Crisis ResourcesIf you or someone you know has been affected by abuse:US: RAINN National Sexual Assault Hotline, 1-800-656-4673US: Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline, 1-800-422-4453UK: NSPCC Helpline, 0808 800 5000UK: Rape Crisis England & Wales, 0808 500 2222Our Sponsors:* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.com* Check out Mood and use my code SHANE for a great deal: https://mood.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The UAP community spent months waiting for alien.gov to become the disclosure portal. It launched on May 28th with sci-fi green font, typewriter text, and an opening line that read "For sixty years the US government has kept a closely guarded secret. Aliens have been walking among us." Then it resolved into an ICE arrest map and a tip line to report illegal immigrants. The closing line: "If you've witnessed an alien abduction, do not be alarmed. The alien is in good hands." That is tonight's deep dive.Also this week, the Archdiocese of Washington fired its nationally prominent exorcist for publicly stating that UFOs are demons. The same position, worded nearly identically, that the Vice President of the United States stated on record six months ago. The Cardinal said his remarks gravely undermined the church's teaching on the devil. The VP kept his job.James Webb confirmed methane on interstellar comet 3i Atlas, the first time it has ever been detected on any object from outside our solar system.

Patrick tackles the heated debate over renaming the Department of Defense to the Department of War, weighing whether this signals realignment or empty bravado, while threading through the risks faced by religious minorities as government classifications shift and anti-Catholic voices grow bolder among power brokers. One moment snaps into focus on the rise of Christian nationalism and the uneasy possibility of theocracy-influenced policy; the next, Patrick pivots to the digital anxieties fracturing generations as technology encroaches on how people gather and worship. Listeners drop raw testimony about confession and faith, lending the episode its unpredictable charge. Patrick reads and responds to emails questioning the way he says “The Department of War” (00:53) Jamie – Regarding the Dept. of War list, is it a bigger concern that Catholics one day will be taken off that list of recognized religions? (05:39) Patrick reads and responds to a Mormon military officer’s post about the Dept. of War’s updated list of recognized religions (18:55) Patrick in Atlanta - The liberal inroads have been made in the military and degraded the morale and morality of the institution.

Lindsay Leahy is back on The Found Podcast for the third time, and this one is unlike any conversation we've had before. You might know Lindsay as the founder of The Restoration Project, the author of Take It All Apart (a USA Today bestseller!), and someone who has spent the last several years helping leaders and organizations do their most meaningful work. But in this episode, Lindsay shares that she's stepping away from what she built, into something she never saw coming.

What happens when ministry becomes driven more by pressure, exhaustion, and self-reliance than prayerful discernment? In this deeply practical and spiritually grounded conversation, Fr. John Riccardo joins Ron Huntley to explore surrender, leadership, discernment, and why renewal begins when leaders stop trying to control the story and “give Jesus back the pen.” If you're longing for healthier leadership, clearer discernment, and a renewed vision for mission in the Church, this episode is for you.

In this special episode of Monday Matters, I had the privilege of sitting down with members of a leadership mastermind group from the Archdiocese of Louisville Catholic Schools in Kentucky. Recorded during Kentucky Derby season, I affectionately referred to this group as my “Derby Mastermind.” Together, we reflected on how collective coaching, mentorship, collaboration, and reflective practice shaped our growth throughout the school year. Guests Featured: From left to right: Dr. Trevor Timmerberg, Shelly Pence, Chasity Livers, Jessica Young, Dr. Karen Loper, and Morgan Wissing (not included in this recording but a member of the mastermind) Throughout the conversation, we discussed how mastermind collaboration helped us: Become better listeners rather than immediate problem-solversSeveral leaders reflected on how easy it is in administration to jump quickly into “fix-it mode.” Through coaching conversations and reflective questioning, we learned the value of listening first, seeking to understand root causes, and creating space for people to process their own thinking before offering solutions. Slow down and reflect more deeply before reactingThe group repeatedly emphasized the importance of pausing before responding to difficult situations. Rather than reacting emotionally or rushing toward quick answers, leaders described learning how to reflect more intentionally, ask deeper questions, and approach challenges with greater wisdom and perspective. Examine assumptions and refine decision-makingLeadership often requires reevaluating assumptions and seeing situations from multiple angles. Participants shared how collaborative discussion and “hot seat” conversations challenged their thinking and helped them make more thoughtful, nuanced decisions. Build confidence in their leadership capacitySome leaders entered the cohort unsure of what they could contribute, especially those newer to administration. Over time, the encouragement, collaboration, and shared learning within the group helped build confidence and reinforced that their experiences, instincts, and leadership voice mattered. Reduce the isolation that often accompanies leadershipA recurring theme throughout the conversation was that leadership can feel lonely. The mastermind experience created a trusted space where leaders realized they were not alone in their struggles, challenges, or questions. The relationships and shared experiences helped replace isolation with connection and support. Develop healthier rhythms around reflection, family, wellness, and personal growthThrough recurring reflection questions and accountability practices, leaders became more intentional about balancing their professional responsibilities with personal wellness, family presence, reading, reflection, exercise, and healthy routines. Translate coaching practices into stronger support for teachers and teamsLeaders shared how they began applying mastermind strategies within their own schools — including celebrating successes, revisiting norms, asking stronger coaching questions, holding reflective conversations, and intentionally developing leadership capacity among teachers and staff. We also explored how structured reflection, accountability, and collaborative problem-solving influenced our schools. Several leaders shared that the practices modeled during our mastermind meetings — including celebrations, norms, reflective questions, coaching conversations, and clear agendas — became strategies they intentionally implemented with their own faculty and leadership teams. A recurring theme throughout the episode was that leadership development is not selfish; it is essential. As Trevor Timmerberg reflected, effective leaders invest in themselves so they can better serve others. Parting Words of Advice from Each Leader Shelly Pence “If I don't invest in myself, then I don't have the capacity to invest in others. I have to continue to invest in my own growth to be able to invest in other people.” Chastity Livers “Take the time to learn and grow. It benefits your school, your professional growth, and even your personal life. I'm always recharged after every mastermind session.” Jessica Young “Having an opportunity to collaborate helps you feel supported and stretched. You become a better leader and a better person.” Dr. Karen Loper “Give yourself permission to spend the time you need to become a better leader. That's what we're all striving for.” Dr. Trevor Timmerberg “Investment in yourself as a leader is never superfluous and it's never selfish. You owe it to the people you serve to put the oxygen mask on first so that you can help others.” Now It's Your Turn Thank you for listening and learning together. When you intentionally invest in your own growth, collaboration, and reflection, you are: Learning and growing Supported and stretched Creating time for renewal and reflection Recognizing that leadership growth is not selfish Returning to your schools equipped with greater perspective, wisdom, and context As always, I hope this episode reminds you that leadership is strengthened through collective learning, thoughtful reflection, and meaningful relationships.
