Delivered by Vici from the Parish of St. John the Baptist in the Archdiocese of Jakarta, Indonesia. Micah 7: 14-15.18-20; Rs psalm 85: 2-4.5-6.7-8; Matthew 12: 46-50.THE STAFF OF GOD'S POWER Our meditation today has the theme: The Staff of God'sPower. In many political traditions a staff or stick is used as a symbol ofpower. We remember Moses who used a staff to show that the power of God was atwork in him, when he was in his mission to lead the people of God to where theLord led them. Kings and presidents of various countries also use staff whichis the symbol of the power they hold. In the Church, the Pope and Bishops havealso staff with the similar meaning. The staff that is made of wood or metal refers to thepower or authority of the person who uses it. Even a stick of wood which isused by father or mother at home is enough to give us understanding that ifchildren violate the rules, they will be subjected to punishment be beaten withthe stick. Seeing what this staff or stick signifies, now we can furtherunderstand why  in the scriptures Godalways reveals His power through the symbolic staff being used by His chosenfigures who had so important duty to do. Today we listen to the Lord who says through theprophecy of Micah in the first reading, that He Himself shepherded His peoplewith His staff. Jesus the good shepherd also carried out the pastoral works byusing the high priest's staff, which until now has been symbolized by the Popeand Bishops. With that staff, the duty as leader and shepherd have itslegitimacy and strength to demand obedience and reliance from people who aresubjected to it. The staff of God has its powerful function in thepurification and deliverance of men and women believers from the power ofdarkness and sin. Satan, the ruler of darkness, when confronted with the powerof God that is symbolized by the staff, he will fall trembling and fear. Thatwas evident in every action of Jesus who was always present through words anddeeds, which instantly frightened the Satan who asked not to be tortured. Thisis the role of to the staff of God, that is to cast all our sins and to bethrown into the sea, says the prophet Micah. So we must look at the staff when it is shown to us insuch manner being held by the person in power, it is made as a support when westand, or when it is used to emphasize on something so important. Jesus referredto all the power that existed in Him, when He spoke that His true disciples andapostles were indeed His mother and His brothers. This statement of Jesussurely contains the teaching that is full with authority. This teaching isabout to carry out God's will which is to be the main task of every follower ofChrist. The staff of Jesus until now is in the hands of the Pope and the Bishopsof the Church. We must listen and follow our Holy Father and our Bishop.Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... O Lord, may our fidelity and obedience tothe Church always be strong and lasting especially through our obedience to theHoly Father and Bishop. Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the HolySpirit ... In the name of the Father …

Homily for the 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Year A (19th July 2026) by Fr Mike Delaney, Parish Priest of the Kingston Channel Catholic Parish in the Archdiocese of Hobart

Delivered by Javinsen, Claire and Celine from the Parish of Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. Wisdom 12: 13.16-19; Rs psalm 86: 5-6.9-10.15-16a; Romans 8: 26-27; Matthew 13: 24-30.THE ENEMY GIVES US OPPORTUNITY The theme for our meditation on this 16thSunday in Ordinary Time is: The Enemy Gives Us Opportunity. A high schoolstudent got praise and gifts from his parents for achieving best grades for allthe subjects in his study. This somehow surprised everyone in the familybecause they still remembered of his grades at the beginning of school thatwere far from expectation. He even got a number of red marks.                                              Why did he change so quickly with his studyachievements when he was in the second and third grade? Did he cheat duringexam in order to get satisfactory grades? These are the common questions thatwere always addressed to him. To those who asked these questions, the boyalways answered wisely, as he said: "Every friend of mine who gets bettergrades than me is my challenger in study, even I want to be better thanhim." This boy continued to follow this way until he finished high school. That teenager's experience is an example of a healthyand good competition. There is also unhealthy and bad competition, which goesthrough bad ways to pursue its goals. In every competition, each competingparty considers its counterpart as an enemy. There are enemies who becomefriends of competition and struggle, so we can be helped to achieve progressand success. Enemies of this quality are considered good enemies, because theygive us the opportunity to become better. But there are enemies who become deadly opponents, whoare moved by hatred, anger and jealousy. We are not helped to become better,instead we are led to a disaster and loss. We naturally and in following thecommon sense, want to have good enemies. God himself is in the category of ourgood enemies. We are sinners. Every time we realize ourselves as sinners, wemust be able to see God as our good enemy, who is patient with us and providesall the opportunities so that we can repent and ultimately return to Him. The parable of coexistence between the seed sower andhis enemy the weed sower, then between the seed that grows together withits  enemy the weed, is so clearly toteach us about the role of the enemy that helps us in this life. Our own familymembers, our friends and people whom we don't know can be our good enemies.Even if we cannot avoid the presence of the dangerous or deadly enemies, thiswas actually already experienced by the Lord Jesus himself and the martyrs whohave gone before us. Such enemies give us opportunities to drink the cup ofsuffering like Jesus Christ did, who is our Teacher and Savior. In this case,we should be grateful and pray for our enemies. Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... O Lord, bless us so that we can live inYour truth and wisdom. Make us good neighbours to those around us. Our Fatherwho art in heaven ... In the name of the Father ...

Sister Dede Byrne has witnessed death from both sides, as a physician and as a religious sister. She has sat with the dying, prayed with the suffering, and watched souls pass from this world to the next. Her message is urgent: the final days of life are spiritually invaluable and should never be intentionally shortened.Speaking in the shadow of the Archdiocese of Chicago's new suicide memorial and the growing acceptance of euthanasia and assisted suicide, Sister Dede insists that mercy is real, but presumption is dangerous. "From the saddle to the ground, mercy is sought, and mercy is found," she quotes, emphasizing that Christ offers every person a final opportunity to choose Him. But no one can definitively judge the state of a soul at death. That belongs to God alone.The interview turns to the crisis within the Church: SSPX excommunications, the Vatican's relationship with China, the Synod on Synodality, and debates over homosexuality and the Latin Mass. Sister Dede acknowledges the confusion but rejects despair. The faithful response is not outrage; it is prayer, the sacraments, and fidelity to Christ. She points to Fatima and the Blessed Virgin Mary's promise of triumph, urging believers to "pray, pray, pray" and remain steadfast.The crisis is real. But the triumph is certain. Sister Dede calls on Catholics to hold the line, not with anger, but with hope.Make the switch today to iCatholicMobile today!iCatholic Mobile—supporting the Catholic faith with every connection.https://www.facebook.com/icatholicmobile https://www.icatholicmobile.com/ HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Delivered by Evelyn from the Parish of Holy Spirit in the Archdiocese of Singapore. Isaiah 26: 7-9.12.16-19; Rs psalm 102: 13-14ab.15.16-18.19-21; Matthew 11: 28-30.KNOWING THE LORD WITH HIS NAME The theme for our meditation today is: Knowing theLord with His Name. There was a ten-year-old boy named Bastian. He wrote aletter to God to ask about His name. Bastian has prayed many times to ask whatreally the name of the Lord is, like his own name Bastian. Since he has notfound an answer, he wrote a special letter. He wrote such words: "LordGod, like Your Son's special name Jesus Christ, so what is Your realname?" He placed that letter at the foot of the cross in the church. The parish priest found that letter one morning. Hetook the letter and wrote under the written words of Bastian, and it read:"The name of the Lord God is 'I AM'. This was not a direct answer fromGod, but what the parish priest gave was the real answer, as the book ofGenesis says about Moses who did meet God and received this name. Then some daylater when Bastian and his family came to church, the boy took his letter andfound the answer he was really waiting for. God gives His own name "I" which means He isperfect, total and eternal. For the name "I", God is the onlypowerful being who affirms Himself as the almighty and everliving Lord. Withsuch superiority, Moses in the old testament and all of us from everygeneration are so blessed with this so special dignity of the Lord. God is notselfish, but He always shares with us, especially involves Himself with us andwe participate in His divinity, through Jesus Christ. We are encouraged to bring such divine superiority toequip ourselves, that we may be able to face enemies and those who oppose thewill of God. Our aim is to defeat those enemies. If we only use our ownstrengths and egos as human beings, we must be very weak when we face all thecomplexities of our works, various challenges and threats. But by using theidentity "I" of God, we will always be enabled by Him and we canstand to face all threats and difficulties. Jesus Christ shows this when He always says: "Itell you". Jesus revealed God's own name when He spoke and when He did theworks of God. Jesus never called himself by using such expression: "Jesustells you". He indeed used "I" to give affirmation ofHimself  and this also means to bring allthe believers to come to Him, to live with Him and to walk in His way of life.Today Jesus invites us to come to Him in order to draw from Him our spiritualrichness. "Come to me, for I am gentle and humble of heart." Let usalways believe and rely on God's name "I AM". Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... O powerful and almighty God, accept ourprayer of gratitiude dependence for the love that You bestow on us through theperson Jesus Christ Your Son, and may we always rely on your power. Glory tothe Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father...

Delivered by Svara Nirmala and Stella from the Parish of The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mamajang, in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. Isaiah 10: 5-7.13-16; Rs psalm 94: 5-10.14-15; Matthew 11: 25-27.KNOWING GOD         The theme for our meditation today is: Knowing God.Joyce, a grade 2 student of elementary school who has only been to school for aweek. In religion class, the students were taught to pray the "OurFather" and other basic prayers. The teacher once asked the students tojot down the formula of Our Father's prayer. However, Joyce only wrote thetitle "Our Father", then under it she drew the face of a man withthick and curly hair, mustache and thin beard. The teacher then asked why Joyce drew that man's face.She replied in this way: "I can already memorize the Lord's Prayer, and Ieven want something more, namely the face of God the Father. Because I do notknow the face of God, I better draw the face of my father at home. He is alsoas good as God". The little girl Joyce represents all of us believerswho want to know God directly and clearly. But  like her, we certainly find it difficult toverify on what or who God looks like. There is no human being can do this, butJesus Christ, who is the Son of God, indeed does it for us. The face of Jesusis so well known to us. According Him, as we come to know Him, to see His faceand to meet Him, we indeed know and experience the existence of God the Father. Today we come to meet the Lord God who introducesHimself to us. Through the passage of the book of the prophet Isaiah chapter10, God revealed Himself as the ruler of the universe and all nations on earth.The evil power who ruled  over thegodless nations would be eventually defeated by the power of Heaven, when Godused the Assyrian Kingdom to oppress them. Indeed, the Lord wanted to make themaware of their sinfull lives and they should repent then returned to Him. Jesus introduced God the Father as the One who hadincarnated in his human form. Jesus himself knew God the Father and what Godthe Father is really like. We can only obtain this knowledge through JesusChrist who is speaking and meeting us. In His prayer to the Father, Jesus askedthat all goodness and mercy are to be given to the simple, little and sufferingones. Whereas the arrogant, the powerful and the learned people find itdifficult to recognize God in their complicated lives. Many of us truly recognize God in times of difficultyand threat of suffering, and we really need the Lord's help. We also recognizeGod when He frees us from all forms of oppression and persecution. We alsorecognize God in situations of pain and helplessness. In a simple and humblelife we ​​also know the Lord our God. Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... Almighty God, strengthen us with Yourblessings, so that we can recognize You without obstacles in all situations ofour lives. Our Father who art in heaven ... In the name of the Father ...

Delivered by Amelia from the Parish of Saint Francis Xavier in the Archdiocese of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Isaiah 7: 1-9; Rs psalm 48: 2-3a.3b-4.5-6.7-8; Matthew 11: 20-24.OVERCOMING DISAPPOINTMENT The theme forour meditation today is: Overcoming Disappointment. There was a teenager namedAnto, who wanted to use his time outside of school with soccer training. Heenrolled in one of the football schools near where he lived. But after twoweeks of training, he quit and moved to another football school. The reason wasthat he was very disappointed because there was no atmosphere of mutualappreciation and support for creativity. Anto had a good playing talent but hedid not have the support of the coach and friends.  There are manyfactors that cause a person to be disappointed and in this reflection wehighlight the factor of lack of appreciation and happy for the goodness andquality we have. Appreciation is the same as acceptance, listening, respect,support and paying attention. Another expression for all this is gratitude. Agrateful person is the one who appreciates goodness and truth and lives in it. Today's readingsgive us examples of disappointments. God expressed disappointment overJerusalem and its rulers and inhabitants, who did not rely on the power of theAlmighty God to guard and defend them from the interference of the othernations. They lack faith in God, and were overcome by fear and want to escapefrom the threat of the enemy. Jesus Christ was disappointed in the cities thathad received His teaching and power but had no intention of repentance. Alongwith that disappointment, Jesus affirmed that the punishment was already instore for them at the time of the final judgment. We always showdisappointment because there is no appreciation and no gratitude in variousforms such as anger, reprimands, warnings and even strong resistance. There'snothing wrong with this. The important thing is that this is an act to makepeople aware, remind and bring people back to have gratitude and appreciation.We always have ways such as fraternal correction or protest in a way like Antomade earlier, so that the bad atmosphere of living together again gives a senseof home and acceptance of each other.    So, what needsto be avoided from this disappointed attitude? What we need to avoid isdisappointment that drives someone to revenge, to have evil plans, or createconflict and war. There is constructive disappointment that is useful forfixing a disorder and chaos, and there is also disappointment that leads todestruction, that is, to bring about worse problems. If we always use ourdisappointments constructively, we are contributing to improving and renewingour lives.Let us pray. In thename of the Father... O Almighty Father, we are grateful for Your wisdom toilluminate the path of our lives, especially when we are disappointed, hurt anddespaired. Hail Mary, full of grace... In the name of the Father ...

Delivered by Fiona from the Parish of Mary Queen of Rosary in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. Isaiah 1: 11-17; Rs psalm 50: 8-9.16bc-17.21.23; Matthew 10: 34 - 11: 1.SPIRITUAL WARFARE The theme for our meditation today is: SpiritualWarfare. In one particular morning there was a girl who was quarreling with hermother. They shouted and blamed each other over something not substantial. Whenleaving home to work, she was still angry and during work she remained angryover that problem with her mother. But the mother at home was continuallypraying for her daughter. She just wanted that her daughter's anger couldimmediately go away. In the afternoon when the girl returned from work, there wasno more anger and the atmosphere in the house returned to normal as if therewas nothing just happened. Anger, like many other sins, originates from the evilone, which is the devil. When we allow ourselves to be dominated by this evilpower, any sinful act can happen as quickly as possible. Even a human personwho is good and intelligent, if he is controlled by the power of darkness, hewill be defeated and eventually perished. This evil power aims to afflict anddestroy him. This power always seizes the opportunity that is available, whichis those persons who are mentally and spiritually weak. The incident above between that girl and her mother isan example of the spiritual war. In a spiritual war, the physical violence thatinvolves tools or weapons does not occur, but people normally use words,thoughts, arguments, criticisms, advices, and the powerful force of prayer. Thespiritual warfare in its true sense is the fight between the power of good andthe power of evil. From His part, the Lord wants that truth and goodness are tobe safeguarded because the forces of evil have already inflicted chaos or haveambition to take power over the life of mankind. In this regard, the prophet Isaiah insisted theIsraelites during their exile period, that in the presence of the almighty Godthey must cleanse themselves by avoiding all the evil deeds. The sword thatJesus used in the spiritual war is the Word of God. This sword has two equallysharp sides used to defend our spirits and souls from the danger of evil, theconsideration and decision of our minds, and the purpose of  our hearts. The Word of God is actually thesword of the Holy Spirit that is used to destroy the spirit of darkness thatbrings us into sin and ultimately removes our dignity as sons and daughters ofGod. So it is Jesus Christ who leads the war that createsdivision among the relatives and friends, where the power of darkness anddestruction of human souls can be found existing there. Purification must bemade there, in order to give us sons and daughters of God an opportunity tolive righteous, peaceful, and joyful in the Holy Spirit. We should always usethe spiritual sword of Jesus Christ in our lives as Christians. Let'spray. In the name of the Father ... O beloved Father, we pray that may the fireof Your Spirit burn our zeal to be courageous and diligent to fight all formsof evil that at any moment can disturb and conquer us. Glory to the Father andto the Son and to the Holy Spirit ... In the name of the Father ...

Dozens of rural Catholic churches in Iowa are about to lose their weekend mass. Today, we hear about the changing map of midwestern Catholicism. First, we hear from a Vinton resident who's Catholic parish has appealed to the Vatican in effort to keep weekend mass in the wake of the Archdiocese of Dubuque's final 'Journey in Faith' restructuring plan. University of Iowa professor Kristy Nabhan-Warren joins to discuss what this initiative means for churches losing eucharistic mass and how this juxtaposes a recent increase in attendance at Catholic churches in urban dioceses, including Des Moines. Then, Deacon John Robbins of the archdiocese explains the mission behind 'Journey in Faith,' and answers listeners' questions.

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.

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.

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?

The archbishop of Washington, D.C., on Wednesday removed a longtime archdiocesan exorcist, saying his recent comments about UFOs being demons “gravely undermine” church teachings. Monsignor Stephen Rossetti is a priest and psychologist who has held prominent positions in the Archdiocese of Washington for decades. In the race to replace Nancy Pelosi’s Senate seat, three major Democrats ran but Scott Wiener and Connie Chan advanced. The November election will decide not just a representative, but the future direction of San Francisco’s leadership.

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. We talk about the book, what happened after it hit those bestseller lists, and the word that started everything this year: beyond. And then we go deeper into where "beyond" has actually led her, which is a brand new role as the Director of Leadership Formation for the Archdiocese of Dubuque. It's unexpected. It's emotional. It's one of the most honest conversations I've had on this podcast.   What You'll Hear in This Episode: The two dark weeks before the book launch that Lindsay didn't expect, and what she found on the other side Client stories from the Take It All Apart process (including Camden, a client stepping into marriage and family while keeping his magic) Lindsay's word of the year: beyond, and the "lay down your nets" moment that changed everything Practical, tactical tools for moving beyond stress, distraction, and busyness (yes, the dumping exercise is back) What it really means to move beyond hustle mode, and why it's ultimately a worthiness issue How a volunteer role inside the Archdiocese of Dubuque turned into a moment she could not say no to What it felt like to surrender a thriving business at the height of its success Why your definition of success doesn't have to look like anyone else's   Resources Mentioned: Take It All Apart by Lindsay Leahy (USA Today Bestseller) The Beyond Series on Lindsay's blog: gritgratitudeandgrace.com Beyond Stress and Distraction Beyond Busyness and Hustle   Connect with Lindsay: Substack: Lindsay M.
