#169 Meeting God in the Middle: The Prodigal Son and the Woman You’re Becoming

Have you ever found yourself in the story of the prodigal son… but not quite sure where you fit? In this deeply personal and reflective episode, we step into one of the most beloved parables from the Gospel of Luke and begin to see it through the lens of midlife. Because the truth is… we are not just one son in the story. We are the one who ran. We are the one who stayed… but slowly hardened. And we are the woman God is gently inviting you and I to become. Which one do you relate to? ✨ The younger son where we’ve searched for love, identity, and fulfillment outside of God ✨ The older son where pride, self-reliance, and quiet resentment have created distance in our hearts ✨ And the “middle son” a reflection of spiritual maturity, where we begin to rest in our identity as beloved daughters If you are a Catholic midlife woman navigating disappointment, betrayal, transition, or simply longing for something deeper This episode will meet you there. I hope you will recognize where you may be in the story right now Release striving, comparison, and quiet self-righteousness Return to the Father’s embrace just as you are And rediscover the truth that your worth has never been lost.
